“I can't recommend Sarah enough! She was amazing to our fur babies and honestly Winnie was totally spoiled with picnics and play dates while we were away. I hope we can have her back with us for our next trip!!”
“Shannon saved us this weekend taking care of our cat and dog! Due to some unforeseen circumstances we needed Shannon at a moments notice and she so graciously cared for our animals and home all weekend. She was very communicative and both our animals loved her. Pretty sure my dog had the time of her life this past weekend. Would definitely recommend!”
“Dana was fantastic! He stayed with our large pitty mix and loud cat for 5 days and handled them both with ease! I appreciate that he really stayed at our home. He communicated regularly with amusing stories and photos. Would definitely work with him again!”

“A pleasant and effortless stay with Kathryn. She was very courteous about coming over beforehand to learn the lay of the land and meet The Cat. She managed the weekend without problems and even investigated a late night message about a package delivery. It was our first time using Rover and we are now Believers. Thank you, Kathryn!”

“I had a last minute cancellation for pet sitting and was able to find Peter whom did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog. He took my dog on nice walking trails and gave me suggestions on caretaking him. Peter is really down to earth and I believe my dog really trusted and enjoyed his company. I am very grateful to Peter and hope he has success in pet sitting in the future!”
“Angelica was great with our large, high-energy dog. She was in constant communication with us throughout the weekend, and took our dog on multiple long walks throughout the day. She is so nice and someone you want to leave your dog with! We will definitely book again, she took great care of our dog!!!”
“Tess struggles with some sitters but thrives with Dana. We are confident that all would be well while away, and Dana delivered! She even worked with us when our return trip delayed over 9 hours. Of course all was clean when we arrived home to a happy pup.”
“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”
About: I have volunteered at multiple shelters and watched multiple different dogs and cats. I am active and able to walk dogs for a while and exercise them. I am available thursday-sunday at anytime that works, as well as monday and wednesday after 4. For pet sitting I can work all weekends if needed. In my home my pets get walked regularly as well as fed twice a day. I try to take them on longer walks when I can, they all get spoiled by me and have multiple toys and treats they get to play with.
“Kendra did a wonderful job making friends with our dog, who we have never left at home. She worked steadily to build his trust, and gave him lots of time to accept her putting him on a slip lead a going for a walk. We really look forward to having Kendra dog-sit for us again! Cheers!”
“Jackie was great with our dog Penny, who definitely has some quirks. Jackie sent daily photos and videos while we were away and also took great care of our apartment— she left it spotless and Penny was clearly well loved while we were gone. I would definitely book her again!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 30 years, starting when I was in second grade. I've owned several dogs throughout my life, including my current dog, Obi! All of my dogs have been part of my family since they were puppies, so I'm familiar with the patience, energy, and attention younger dogs need. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've also looked after dogs and cats for friends and family. I've cared for pets of different ages, including a senior cat, and understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply keeping your pet company while you're away, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I know how important pets are to their families, and I'll treat yours with the same care and attention I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine and can also accommodate house sitting when needed. I understand that everyone's schedule is different, so I'll do my best to find times that work for both you and your pet. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and comfortable when you're not home. Having pets of my own, I know how much trust goes into leaving them in someone else's care. When looking after your pets, I'll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I'll also make sure they're secure during walks and that their environment stays clean and comfortable. I respect both your home and your pet's personal space, and I'm always happy to send photos and updates so you know how they're doing while you're away.
“Sara took great care of our elderly dog and our young active cat. She sent us adorable pictures of them and little updates along the way. This was our first time with a dog sitter, and she made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were well cared for!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Erdenheim
Darcy is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! Our dogs warmed up to her very quickly, which immediately put us at ease. We were a little anxious about leaving our big pups behind, especially since it had been a while since we last traveled internationally. However, Darcy made the experience so much easier by sending us daily updates and adorable pictures. It was reassuring to see how comfortable and well cared for our pups were while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Darcy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive!
This was the first time MaryEllen stayed overnight with the cats, and it was wonderful for us to know they had her company. Maryellen is always so in tune with their needs and personalities, giving them space when they need, or grooming, or snuggles, or play. And her updates to us are always so detailed with many pictures that help us feel like we never left. MaryEllen is our favorite (and the cats’ favorite) sitter for good reason!
Ricky is the best! She stayed with our pets for 11 days. One of our dogs, Sammi, is a challenge because of her anxiety. We knew she would need more patience than usual. Ricky understood the assignment and took great care with her. And, in fact, treated all of our pets with steadiness and affection. Her communication was proactive and thorough, with just the right amount of updates. We came home to a very happy pets and a tidy house that was obviously treated with respect. Don't hesitate to work with Ricky if given the opportunity!
Seb spent a long weekend with our old lady pup Fenner and we genuinely couldn’t be happier to have found them. They stepped in at the last minute when we needed them and took the absolute best care of our girl, including giving her extra meds because of a recent procedure and staying an extra night when our travel plans unexpectedly changed at the last minute. On top of all that, they left us gorgeous drawings of Fen that made us so happy. Can’t wait to have Seb over to hang with Fen again soon, truly. Thank you Seb!!!
Kristen was wonderful! This was our second time booking her to care for our four dogs and we couldn’t have been happier. It was so evident from the photos and updates she sent that our dogs loved her and felt comfortable and safe with her. Since all four of our dogs are rescues with traumatic pasts, their comfort with her is really telling and gives us incredible peace of mind when we’re away. Kristen also kept our house extremely tidy during her stay. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our time away knowing that our dogs were happy, safe, and being so well cared for.
Caitlin is kind, loving, and patient with our feisty dog. She took the time to get to know his personality, which we greatly appreciate. She's very professional, communicates well and gave us helpful updates. She left our home clean, and us worry free while we were away.
We were so very happy with Natalie! She clearly provided our dogs with exceptional care based on all the pics and updates I got, and she even got our nervous dog to eat all her meals, which she frequently wont do when we leave her with dog sitters. We had a busy vacation planned and I was so pleased that I didnt have to worry at all about our pups the entire time!
We hired Danielle to care for our 2 dogs and 3 cats for a week while we were on vacation. She took wonderful care of our babies and even watered my garden for me as well! We received updates, sometimes multiple times over the course of a day and the house was clean and tidy upon our return. I would hire Danielle again and I would recommend her to friends and family.
John took great care of my dog Brenna while I was traveling for 2 weeks. It was great to know that she was comfortable in a space that she's used to, and John sent me daily updates, including a pic of my girl. John was very respectful of my space and went above and beyond- even changing the sheets on the bed before I got home. This was my first time using Rover- and John made it a positive and stress free experience! If I'm traveling again in the future, I would definitely book him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Erdenheim is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $72 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,619 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Erdenheim. 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 Erdenheim 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 Erdenheim 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 Erdenheim 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Erdenheim. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
