“Emma took excellent care of our two dogs while we away. She followed all instructions and was very responsive both before and during our trip. We came home to two happy pups! I would definitely book Emma again the next time we need an overnight sitter.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. My personal pet journey started with hamsters and the kittens in my grandmother’s horse barn. As I grew older, my experiences grew to exotics such as ferrets and birds. Then in my young adulthood I became a receptionist for an animal hospital and an animal E.R. There I became a vet tech as well. I later became a tech for large animals. I also volunteered for a private zoo handling the large reptiles, lions and tigers, and the petting zoo. Oh my! After 15 years I could no longer work regular jobs. I became disabled due to the migraines I get. Along the way, I had my own reptile rescue, took care of diabetic cats and people, and rescued different dogs, cats, reptiles, rats, and birds that needed loved. Currently, I don’t have any dogs of my own. I lost her in August 2025. I do however live with my mom who has 2 small dogs in which I take care of every day. I have to feed them their raw diet twice daily. One of them is diabetic and requires insulin at feeding times which is on a regular schedule. The pets I do have at the moment include a sassy cat, a grumpy bearded dragon, my son’s 2 newly hatched call ducks that are his ESAs. His hamster and rabbit, and a fish passed away in May. Our Sun Conure passed away a couple of years ago. She was 27 years old. And when I say my son’s, I pretty much take care of them considering he’s almost 8. I’m willing to help with other animals as well as dogs and cats since I have experience with pretty much all animals. I’ll be doing some horse care in the fall which I can’t wait for since I grew up with horses and have working experience with them. I also take care of the goats, chickens, ducks, and rabbits on an educational farm. So as I said, I’m definitely open to care for more than just dogs and cats even though dogs and cats are awesome! I’m usually a stay at home mom so my hours are flexible. I’m mostly free from 8:30a.m. Until about 3p.m. Monday through Thursday. Friday I’m available only until 1:30p.m. Saturdays and Sundays could be possible depending on my mom’s schedule. I’m a single mom and she’s my only babysitter. If you don’t mind him tagging along - if your pets are kid friendly - then I’m absolutely available. He is very good with animals. But, I would prefer to be able to focus solely on your fur baby. I also currently work with Snipes Farm going to schools and teaching farm to table cooking. I also am part of taking care of their chickens, ducks, goats, and rabbits. I usually work with them 1 day a week or so. I know my schedule ahead of time so I can work around it accordingly. I make sure all doors are locked and clean up after your pet. I wash their dishes after feeding. I make sure they are happy and safe according to your guidelines. I treat them as if they were my own. I send pics usually to let you know how they’re doing. As far as walking and possible interactions, I avoid other people and animals, just to keep everyone safe. I don’t want another animal or person to harm your pet.
“Marissa is so great! She was flexible when my travel arrangements got delayed and sent me lots of pictures of my fur baby. She is very responsive and overall, great to work with!”
“Courtney was an absolute professional dog sitting Humphrey. Excellent communication and she gets along so well with H. Cannot recommend her highly enough for all walking/sitting services.”
“My husband and I can not say enough good things about Abbie. We had not taken a vacation in a few years due to concerns about our energetic newly adopted boy and our aging girl. She was so gentle, calm, understanding and took such good care of them. She provided us thoughtful updates while we were gone and they were happy when we got home. Peace of mind is absolutely priceless. Thank you Abbie for everything and we will see you again soon!”

About: Hi! My name is Vanessa, I am a graduate of Kutztown University with a degree in Special Education and two minors in social work and case management. I am seeking positions as a dog sitter as an additional gig. I have prior experience working with dogs and kittens/cats at the EASEL shelter so I am comfortable around animals. I personally do not own a dog, but I love the happiness and companionship a dog and cat gives. Being a sitter allows me to gain the proper experience I need to be able to own a dog in the future! I have experience in dog walking, drop-ins, and house-sitting (for both pets and the elderly). I have my own method of transportation, and a flexible schedule. I hope to meet you shortly!

“Pat has developed a great relationship with Henry and took him on a very lengthy walk. It’s great knowing that Henry is getting attention and exercise while I’m gone.”
About: My love for animals has been a defining part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started my pet-care journey at just 10 years old, looking after my neighbors' dogs and building a foundation of trust within my local community. Over the years, that childhood passion evolved into professional expertise. For the past four years, I have worked as a seasonal dog handler at my local animal inn. This professional background has equipped me to handle everything from standard pet sitting to complex canine behaviors and specialized medical needs. A core part of my training includes an extensive understanding of canine body language. I am highly skilled at reading subtle signs of stress, fear, or discomfort, allowing me to intervene before a dog becomes overly anxious or potentially aggressive. I use this knowledge every single day to ensure that walks and play sessions remain entirely safe and low-stress. I am incredibly comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and strengths. I have hands-on experience utilizing a variety of specialized walking gear safely and correctly, including martingale collars, gentle leaders, and various types of harnesses. Whether your dog is a puller or needs a specific setup for safety, I know how to manage them on a leash. I have worked with an incredibly diverse range of breeds, from tiny pugs to giant Irish wolfhounds. Through my professional training, I have successfully managed and de-escalated challenging behaviors, including: - Food aggression and resource guarding - Fence fighting and dog-to-dog aggression - People-selective behaviors and high-anxiety pets Beyond behavioral management, I am highly experienced in handling special medical accommodations. I have safely cared for dogs managing a variety of health issues, including blindness, severe arthritis, infectious illnesses, and pets requiring strict medication schedules. I am also completely unfazed by the less-glamorous parts of pet care. I am always prompt, thorough, and sanitary when it comes to cleaning up vomit, poop, or any unexpected accidents inside the house. Additionally, I have extensive experience doing in-home drop-ins and overnights through a professional service similar to Rover. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect. You can look forward to meticulous attention to detail: I always ensure the home is left exactly as I entered it, and I have a strict double-check protocol to ensure all doors and entryways are completely locked and secured before I leave. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict behavior management, gentle senior care, or just a safe and secure environment while you are away, I am dedicated to providing the highest standard of professional care! I'm currently working as a lab technician from Monday to Wednesday, so I'll be able to take care of your pet after 5:30 pm! From Thursday to Saturday, I work a part-time job, so my hours can vary! However, I can be flexible, and as long as I'm notified in advance, I can figure out accommodations to take care of your pet! My Sundays are always free to take care of your fur baby. I like to make sure the pet is as comfortable as they can be, and I'm good at following directions. If you are currently crate training or getting personal training for your animal, I will ensure that I'm following your directions to ensure that your pet's training is reinforced. I always ensure that your house is properly secured when entering and exiting the home.
About: I love dogs. They are the best. I have raised two dogs who have since passed and have fostered dogs of all sizes, ages and special conditions. I enjoy spoiling dogs with all the love and attention. I work from home, I am always in the house for the most part. I encourage walks and fetch and any other activity the dog may require. I give dogs free rein of the house. It’s dog friendly. I have a fenced yard and crates if they need to be crated. I can administer medicine or anything else they may need dietary wise.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ewing
Nora took such wonderful care of our 9-year-old pup while staying at our home during extremely cold and snowy days as our dog recovered from surgery. She made sure our pup was cozy, happy, and safe, and kept our home tidy too! We loved getting regular updates and cute photos from her the whole time. Even with the rough weather, Nora was always caring, dependable, and just great to work with!
Sherry was amazing with my 9 year old pitbull! She did multiple drop in visits over three days and always kept me updated with photos and messages. My dog instantly felt comfortable with her, which says a lot, she can be a little selective with people. I came home to a happy, relaxed girl, and I could tell she was well cared for. I highly recommend Sherry to anyone looking for a reliable and genuinely caring dog walker!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ewing on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,454 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ewing. 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 Ewing 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 Ewing 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 Ewing 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 Ewing. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
