“We’re so pleased with how our pups were cared for. They received lots of love and attention while we were away. We were kept up to date with pictures that showed us our fur babies were happy. I highly recommend Kaela for taking care of your pets.”

“Mandi is the best! After a dozen meh experiences on this app, finally found someone shag my scared, shy pup warmed up to. Pockets was in great hands and we didn’t have to stress about that. 🙌🏻🙌🏻”

“Nadine was a miracle in our lives and we can’t thank her enough! My husband and I planned what is possibly the last cruise of our lives - he being 94 and me 86! We have 2 rescued pets, an Alaskan Husky and a MaltePoo - both 10 yrs old. Our Husky, Tex, has diabetes and requires insulin injections twice a day on schedule & Biscuit who has separation anxiety issues seemed to not panic about our leaving. Nadine was the perfect in house pet sitter for our 2 week absence! She had the experience and background to handle both of our pups care! But, most of all, Tex and Biscuit immediately responded to her loving care. If, by chance, we could still be able to take an extended trip again, we would certainly contact Nadine! I’m sure that Tex & Biscuit would wag their tails in thanks!💕 GJ & Joe”

“Maira was a godsend and watched our little 10 week old puppy while we went to dinner. She arrived timely, communicated throughout the evening and worked on short notice. I’d definitely book her again when I come back to the Las Vegas area.”

“We cannot say enough amazing things about Cheyenne. From the moment she stayed in our home with Halo and Jack, we knew they were in the absolute best hands possible. She cared for them like they were her own, and the love our pets have for her is undeniable. Halo especially absolutely adores her — and somehow, within just two days, she taught him things we’ve been trying to teach him for years! Cheyenne is everything you could ever hope for in a pet sitter: kind, respectful, trustworthy, responsible, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our home and our babies were being cared for by someone with such a calm, loving, and professional presence. When we came home, not only were Halo and Jack happy and relaxed, but our home was perfectly cared for as well. That level of trust is priceless, and we truly trust Cheyenne completely. If you are looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, look no further. Cheyenne is an absolute gem, and we are beyond grateful to have found her. We honestly cannot imagine using anyone else moving forward.”

“Nina D is the best! We haven't been gone away for two weeks in over 25 years. I never could have left my fur covered babies except for knowing that Nina was keeping them safe & taking such good care of them. She is outstanding - I highly recommend her. Thank you Rover for helping me find her! ❤️”

“Matt was wonderful and communicative during the holiday week while we were away. He sent tons of videos and our kitty really seemed to have take a liking to him! Our apartment was clean when we got home, and cat was happy and well cared for and well exercised! I will definitely be booking again with Matt if he’s available for our future trips away from home”

“Mariah was awesome! I booked her to stay overnight and house sit while we went camping for the weekend and she was incredibly communicative and respectful of the space. She went out of her way to come out for a meet and greet before the sitting dates and made sure to follow all the instructions we left. I have a very active cat and she did a wonderful job playing with him and keeping the cats company. Everything she used in the house she cleaned and put back away, in fact I'm almost certain she left it cleaner than we did when we left haha. She was so awesome and I'm so glad we were able to hire Mariah for our weekend trip and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Our three pups had a fantastic time. They were tended to and cared for with so much genuine attention and kindness we couldn’t have asked for a more stress-free experience while we were gone for the entire day! we received adorable videos and photos during the sitting and had a glowing report upon our return. Highly recommend and will absolutely be requesting them again!!! THANK YOU!!!!!! :))”

“Natalie did an amazing job. I have used a couple dog sitters from Rover and have to say she is the best. I’m very particular about who watches my 3 English Bulldogs. They can be quite high maintenance. She made me very comfortable with periodic check ins with photos of my fur babies. I would highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her services again.”

“Dawn was a wonderful dog and cat sitter. I had to leave unexpectedly at the last minute. To have a stranger in your home with your babies is very scary. She made me feel at ease and that they would be well taken care of so that I could be there with my mom who had emergency, life threatening surgery. She even trained the next sitter, as I was gone longer than expected. I would recommend Dawn as she loves animals and is a kind and compassionate person.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Erie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 1,636 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Erie. 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 Erie 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 Erie 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 Erie 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.
