Took great care of my pets-took them on lots of walks and cuddles! Gave me updates about them several times daily. Felt like my dogs had so much fun while I was gone. Came home to cute little photos on the counter of all of them as an extra surprise! Dog person through and through-would recommend and use again!

Stephanie has a very positive, gentle and kind demeanor that both my husky and my cat responded really well to. Both pets and the home were in great condition when I came home. She was great about texting photos of the pets during her stay.

Becky did an outstanding job taking care of Frosty. She did everything we asked of her. She has a great attitude and communicated with us the entire time we were gone, sending us pictures of Frosty. She left the house very clean. I would definitely have her take care of Frosty again.

Rose is awesome! This is my second time requesting Rose services and I’m simply left per usual as being blown away. She’s one of a kind. My furry baby Bear loves her. I totally feel that Bear is safe with her and that he’ll have the greatest time with Rose while I’m away. Not only is her care for pets phenomenal but she also makes sure your home is well taken care of. Rose will always be Bear’s only pick for pet sitting. As she cannot be beat the best at what she does. Thank you Rose for everything! ps bear misses you already!

Miss Rachel was a dream housesitter! She made sure to get meticulous instructions on our dogs’ routines so they were as comfortable as possible, and we were able to rest easy on our vacation with daily updates knowing they were well taken care of. She was incredibly patient, especially with our elderly dog with special accommodations. Would highly recommend her and her little sidekick, and look forward to having them back for the next trip!

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who require extra attention, medication management, and gentle care. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions to keep your pet happy and healthy. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give pet parents peace of mind. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet while providing dependable, compassionate care every step of the way. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I currently have completely open availability. This flexibility allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules, including early mornings, evenings, weekends, holidays, and last-minute bookings. I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet to ensure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks and drop-in visits, I follow their established routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I maintain a clean, safe environment, ensure doors and gates are secure, and closely monitor pets during walks and playtime. I understand that trust is important when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, safe, and stress-free until their family returns home. 🐾❤️

Tiana was really wonderful. This was the first time we had booked with her for a house sitting and pet sitting. She was professional, kind, very communicative and really took great care of our babies. She sent photos, videos and updates regularly in just 24 hours. She proactively brought in our mail. Our home and our 3 pets were very well cared for. We most certainly will book with her again and encourage you to do the same!

About: I’ve raised five dogs of my own from puppyhood; as well as watched the dogs of my friends and family since I was young. I’ve had everything from mixed breeds, to French bulldogs, pugs, and even a pit bull! I have experience with oral medication administration and elderly dog care. My current dog was in my care before he could be weened, so I know plenty about little puppies! I believe in keeping my dogs as active as their health permits, so walks are a crucial part of the day for me. (If they can, of course. I’ve also had a senior dog with arthritis I’ve accommodated.) I have a knowledge of dog psychology and feel that it’s important to recognize dog behavior correctly. I’m currently working part time with a flexible schedule. As long as I know ahead of time, I’m most likely able to accommodate your pet. I always care for your pet as requested. Whether or not your pup is crate trained doesn’t matter, I’ve cared for both. If your dog needs medication, walks at certain times, a health specific diet, has allergies, can’t be around certain animals/noises/environments- I will go out of my way to make sure your pets needs are met. I will always treat your pet as my own.

About: Hello, I'm Delaney! I've watched every kind of dog you can think of, from the big bulldozing lap dogs to the fierce little chihuahua. I've been in love with working with animals ever since I can remember; I've always had a deep passion for them. I'm so excited for this opportunity to have access to the best digs and cater to their needs. Hopefully, we can end dog boredom together! I’m currently working part time, with flexible hours that allow me to stay home when needed. I’m able to provide one on one care for all clients I live in a large home with a fenced-in yard. It's just me here, and I'm able to provide one-on-one attention for all clients.

Lucia stayed with Coco in our home for eight days while we were away, and I couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Coco can be shy and anxious with new people, but Lucia was incredibly patient and allowed her to warm up at her own pace. She followed Coco's routine carefully, kept us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. When we returned home, Coco was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they had formed a special bond, and seeing how comfortable and affectionate Coco was with Lucia meant so much to us. Our home was also just as we had left it. What stands out most about Lucia is how thoughtful and attentive she is. She pays close attention to the little details, genuinely cares about your pet's comfort and well-being, and treats them as if they were her own. It's obvious that caring for animals is more than just a job to her. If you're looking for someone who is compassionate, reliable, communicative, patient, and completely trustworthy, I can't recommend Lucia highly enough. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and look forward to having her care for Coco again.

FAQs for House Sitting - English Town

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in English Town on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 3,353 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across English Town. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred English Town walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in English Town maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in English Town choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in English Town. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
