“Sara was great with house sitting for our cat, dog and looking after our home. Reliable. On time. Everything was taken care of for them like we had never left. We are so very happy with her attention to every detail.”
“We booked Evgenii to dog sit in our home for 10 days while we went on vacation. Our previous dog sitter canceled and Evgenii was very accommodating for a last minute booking. We met him a few times for walks prior to this so our dog would become familiar with him and our dog absolutely loved him. She got so excited each time he came by for a walk which was so reassuring for us. Throughout the 10 days we had constant communication, received regular updates and was very responsive any time we reached out. We really appreciated this communication and it was so nice to see our dog was happy. We also returned home to a very tidy and clean house. We are so happy to have found Evgenii and we will most definitely be using his services again going forward.”
“Boryana took amazing care of our senior pitbull, Brady. She was very patient with his quirks and eccentricities (e.g. he has acquired a habit of lying down for rests mid-walk). He often seems a little out of sorts after we come back from a long trip, but this time he was very relaxed and happy. Communication was top notch and our house was left in perfect condition. We can't recommend Boryana highly enough, and hope she'll be available to take care of Brady again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs over the past four years. Not only have I dog sat but I have also fostered dogs I am currently working full time but I am capable of checking in on lunch (if dog sitting) and can go straight to them after work I unfortunately don’t have a fenced yard, so we will be going on lots of walks. I don’t have any other animals in my home.
“Danielle did an amazing job staying overnight for a week with my 2 dogs. She was communicated well the entire time and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were taken care of. She took great care of my house while she stayed over and left it very clean. Highly recommend Danielle and I will definitely be using her services in the future!”
“Shalini was great! So easy to work with and very communicative. Gave updates throughout and my pup was clearly well taken care of! I would definitely use her again and recommend her.”
“Denise was amazing and took great care of our maltipoo during our week long vacation. We were so worried about leaving him for the week and didn’t want to put him in a kennel. Denise exceeded all our expectations and we are so happy to have found her. I finally feel like we can go away without the stress of leaving him!”
About: I offer thoughtful, in-home pet care designed for comfort, safety, and peace of mind—especially during holidays and extended stays. I welcome no more than 4 dogs at a time, ensuring each pet receives individualized attention in a calm, structured environment. Pets are never left alone, and I carefully separate them by size and temperament. Cats enjoy their own private, quiet space, completely separate from dogs. I have experience caring for rescue dogs and cats, senior pets, and pets who may need extra patience and reassurance while their families are away. During holidays and long stays, I focus on keeping routines consistent so pets feel secure and at home. Neighborhood walks and medication administration are included at no additional charge, and I provide plenty of love, supervision, and one-on-one time. For safety and handling considerations, a $25 additional fee applies to dogs over 100 lbs. Pet care is a family-supported service, and I work closely with my daughter Alexny, allowing for constant supervision, attentive care, and a warm, home-like environment where your pet is treated like family—even while you’re away. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in between other commitments. Because I care for pets from my home, I am able to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, timely meals, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and follow their individual routines closely. With the support of my daughter Alexny, pets are never left alone, and care remains steady and attentive during weekdays, weekends, and holidays. This allows me to offer a calm, structured, and reliable environment where pets feel safe and cared for at all times. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities. I provide care in a calm, clean, and structured home environment, and pets are never left alone. I limit the number of pets I care for so each one receives close supervision and individualized attention. For outdoor time, I offer a large enclosed deck and a spacious backyard where one side is fenced and the other is secured with a portable fence to ensure dogs are safely protected at all times. Outdoor play is always closely supervised. I can also crate your dog if needed, always following your preferences. Pets are thoughtfully separated by size and temperament, and cats have their own quiet, dedicated space, completely separate from dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including meals, walks, medications, and rest, to help them feel secure and at ease. I have experience with rescue pets, senior pets, and pets who need extra patience and reassurance, and I use gentle, positive handling at all times. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel at home and pet parents have complete peace of mind.
About: I have a dog of my own, I’ve been taking care of him for 2 years and making sure to walk him everyday. I am a trusted dog walker I work from home and whenever I have time I love walking my dog out and neighbors dogs for an hour or two. Love dogs I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a leash I take them out with when they need to go to the bathroom
About: Hello. I have been working professionally with animals for the last 5 years. I spent three years working at a pet store working/caring for pets in the store that included dogs, cats, and exotics. And now for almost 3 years I have been working as a veterinary assistant/technician at an emergency and speciality hospital. That means I have experience to help with your pup/cat with special needs and helping administering medications! I grew up with animals all my life. I currently have a dog (Onyx) that I have personally trained myself and a cat (Masha) that I have also trained to do a trick or two for a treat. I have a huge love for animals and just like I do for my patients I work with, I will treat your baby with love and care as if it were my own. I currently work full-time at the veterinary hospital so I’m only available Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. That includes mornings, afternoons, and most nights. Unfortunately I cannot watch/bring your pets to my home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Whether your companion is energetic, shy, elderly, or has medical needs, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Experienced with senior pets, diabetic pets, seizure patients, post-operative care, medication administration, mobility assistance, and other special-needs animals.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—I grew up with two Shih Tzus and currently have a super energetic 1-year-old cockapoo named Wrigley. Because of my experience with different ages and energy levels, I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have a genuine passion for dogs and love taking them on long walks, playing fetch, and doing everything I can to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and completely loved while in my care. As an elementary school teacher, my schedule gives me the ultimate flexibility to care for your pets! Since I have summers completely off, I have open availability during the day to accommodate your routine. Whether your dog needs mid-day walks, playtime, or full-day care, I'm easily able to adapt and am always open to last-minute bookings to support busy pet parents. Whether I am caring for a pet in their own home or mine, my top priority is safety, comfort, and routine. In a client's home, I carefully follow all directions given by the owner regarding feedings, medications, walks, and nap schedules to keep your pet feeling secure in their familiar environment. I also treat every client's home with the utmost care and respect.
About: I have had my own dogs since I was 4 years old. I am also a vet tech with ~10 years of experience. As a veterinary technician, I bring both a professional experience and genuine love for animals to every visit. I understand that every pet deserves individual care. My medical knowledge, attention to detail, and love for animals allow me to provide safe, dependable care while keeping photos and messages so they always know their pets are happy and well cared for! Wo Working with animals is already my career. I spend my days caring for pets and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail. Outside of work, I make time for walks, drop-in visits, and quality one on one time. I carefully plan out my schedule so every pet receives attention. Whether I am caring for pets at my home or at my clients home, I always treat them as if they were my own. I will follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I follow their established routine to help them feel comfortable and secure
“Dana was truly a lifesaver when a foot snowstorm hit our area and she agreed to stay overnight with our Chantilly Chantilly loves being with Dana and Dana took such great care of her”
“Jennifer was amazing at taking care of our babies and home while we left town for a week to visit family! They usually take awhile to warm up to people but they seemed to adjust fine and happily with her company which made me feel so relieved!! I was so happy with all of the pictures and updates since it was our first time leaving them for such a long trip, we would definitely love to have her come back and visit Charlie & Henry again :)”
“I couldn't be happier with the exceptional care provided by Matt during his week-long stay in my home. Hiring a pet sitter was stressful, but I couldn't be happier with the results. In the past I only allowed long-time friends to sit my pets. I didn't have that option this time. I am so happy I found Matt. He came to my home to meet me and my pets. I could tell right away he was a patient animal lover and was interested in getting to know and have a relationship with my pets. This first meeting provided me with some reassurance. Matt provided me with regular updates and great pictures while staying at my home and my stress level continued to decrease. Matt did a wonderful job caring for my home, my 3-year-old Golden, and my 2 house cats. While on vacation I even heard from a neighbor who met Matt and commented on how great he was with my Golden. She is now interested in using Matt as a pet sitter. Not only do I recommend Matt I want to thank him again for doing such a great job.”
“I highly recommend Micaela 😊 she took excellent care of my dog Zues while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. she was very reliable, responsible, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout my trip. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable when I returned home. It was clear that Micaela treated my pet with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. I would not hesitate to use this services again and would gladly recommend Micaela to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you so much for your services. 😊😊😊”
“Yasmine was absolutely incredible and I highly recommend! My girls aren't too difficult but they are certainly particular and Yasmine killed it. She stayed at my place for a week and when I returned, it looked exactly as I had left it. I've finally come home from a trip and genuinely felt like my girls were taken care of.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Englishtown on Rover is $99.9 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,247 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Englishtown. 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 Englishtown 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 Englishtown 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 Englishtown 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 Englishtown. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
