“Great pet sitter! She stayed with my car Boba and spent the night. She was very professional and did a wonderful job sending me pictures. My cat looked so happy snuggled on her lap!”
“We had the pleasure of rebooking Mamu for a two week trip, and once again, they did a wonderful job caring for my high energy dog. Mamu is incredibly thoughtful and attentive by sending daily pictures and videos but also going the extra mile to care for my dog's specific needs. They have been working with my dog on his leash pulling. Mamu isn't just watching over your furry friend, but they truly engages with them and wants to help them thrive. Mamu is also very observant and always quick to communicate if something seems off or needs attention. My dog absolutely ADORES Mamu. If you’re lucky enough to book with Mamu, know that your pet, home and your peace of mind are in the best hands.”
About: • Experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels • Comfortable with both small dogs and larger, high-energy breeds • Familiar with leash manners and crate routines Flexible for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and house sitting. I plan ahead to keep routines consistent and communicate scheduling clearly before each booking. Repeat walks welcome. I follow each dog’s routine closely and adjust care based on their size, energy level, and personality. I prioritize leash awareness, safety, consistent boundaries, and clear communication. I keep environments clean, secure, and low-stress while following any care instructions provided, whether your dog is crate trained or free roaming. My home is best suited for one large dog or up to two smaller dogs at a time, with nearby access to parks, trails, and regular walking routes.
“My husband and I highly recommend Jennifer! We have never had anyone but family watch our dog (he’s 12) so this was our first time using Rover. Jennifer was supper responsive and took excellent care of our pride and joy! Will definitely be using her in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m Samantha, an experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. I know every pet has their own routine, and I believe the best care comes from keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether that’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medications, providing enrichment, or simply spending quality time cuddling on the couch, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I work part time in an optometry office and part time at a spa, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available early mornings, during my lunch break on most weekdays, evenings after work, and all day Friday and Sunday. During overnight stays, I provide care before work, stop by during my lunch break when needed, return after work for dinner, walks, and quality time, then stay overnight with your pet. I always strive to maintain their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before the booking. I always keep dogs leashed when out, unless you’ve specifically approved otherwise, and they’re in a secure area. I make sure gates and doors are secured, fresh water is always available, and I closely monitor pets during walks, playtime, and outdoor breaks. I treat every client’s home with respect, keep it clean, and make sure it’s in the same condition.
“Heather was amazing. She was able to care for our difficult older cat like a pro. Our cat required two medications twice a day, including an injection, and our cat doesn't do well with stranger but she did great with Heather. Heather let us know everytime when she completed the shot which really put our minds at ease. We ended up book her again for two more trips these coming months.”
“Samantha was wonderful with our senior dogs! She also kept the house clean and sent us plenty of pictures so that we never missed our dogs too much! We can tell that they were very well cared for during our trip.”
About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds for many years. As a dog owner and mom to teenage children, I'm used to dealing with whatever comes up. I'm always punctual, reliable, and I'll love your pets. I have several volunteer commitments, and teenage children, but I'm generally very flexible and can work with you to fit around your pets' needs. I can be there for the whole day, pop in for play and food, or go for long walks. I'm practical, reliable and always punctual. I'll leave your home as you left it and take such good care of your pets with whatever they need.
“Kivi was amazing with my sweet dog Nala. This was my first time asking Kivi to house sit, and she truly went above and beyond. Not only did she take Nala on great walks at the beach, but she hung out with her in her garden, sent me lots of pictures, and did all the things that Nala loves. I’m always a little nervous leaving my baby behind, but for a second I wondered if she was having more fun with me being away haha. I can tell Kivi is a genuine animal-loved, and she had a very kind and trustworthy nature. What more can you ask out of a house sitting experience?”
“Dan and Allison were great sitters! They took my last minute request and had great communication from the start. They took great care of my mini frenchie Scarlet. They sent photo updates and left the house spotlessly clean exactly how I left it. Would definitely hire them again!”
“Zoe stepped in last minute after our other house sitter was unable to make it and took amazing care of our two cats! We are super grateful for the help and would definitely book again :)”
“We came in from out of town for a concert. Sydney was great with our girl Lola. He was also very accommodating and flexible with his time. I’d definitely choose Sydney again when we’re back up this way.”
“Emily was fantastic with our dog Freckles! She came to our hotel in the evening while we had dinner out with our newborn, was right on time, and sent updates so we could fully relax. Freckles was his usual spirited self when we got back, and Emily handled him wonderfully. Warm, reliable, and clearly great with dogs — we'd absolutely book her again.”
About: Hey my name is Miles. I have a natural attunement to animals. They always feel very comfortable around me. I have studied horse behavior and communication and am now studying more positive reinforcement dog behavior as well. I love cats and dogs and making them feel cared for and loved. I currently work from home and part time so I have ample time to care for pets and make sure they get all the attention, walking, feeding, and anything else they may need. Yes, I offer in home dog sitting and I care for them with the utmost autonomy and respect.

About: Hello! My name is Anna, and I am currently studying to become a veterinarian in Santa Cruz, CA. I have worked professionally with animals for the past nine years and always treat every fur baby as if they are my own. I have built this experience through my independent pet-sitting business, my four years as a sales consultant at Pet Food Express, and my volunteer work as a cat and kitten socializer at a local shelter. I am also a mama to both my wonderful cat, Lemon, and my 16-year-old dog, Leo! I am currently very flexible with my schedule and am available for both day and overnight pet sitting. I strive not only to make your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible, but also to help every owner feel as though they left their pet in the right hands. I love to provide as many updates and photos of your fur baby as you may want! I have the most experience with cats and dogs, but I do have limited experience with reptiles as well. I have additionally worked with animals of all temperaments, and I understand that new faces can be anxiety-inducing for some. I will always tailor each experience specifically to the needs of your animal and what will help bring them the most happiness :) Specific areas of expertise for me that may not be found elsewhere include caring for senior pets and animals who may have special needs. Through my studies, I have developed a strong foundation in primary veterinary concerns and how to properly care for an animal when they may not be feeling their best. As a current undergraduate student who pet-sits as my primary job, I am very flexible and open to caring for your animals! At most, I drive up to campus once a day for approximately two hours in the afternoon. I leave the rest of my day open to keeping your fur baby the best possible company. Pet safety is always my number one priority! I currently live in an apartment complex that contains a fenced yard, a dog park directly behind my apartment, and plenty of dog-friendly walking trails nearby. Our apartment is fairly spacious, and I have found that animals tend to love the large windows and amount of light we receive. For cats, I always ensure that all windows and doors are locked, and there are no possible escape routes (I know how sneaky cats can be)! I do currently have a very friendly cat living with me.
About: I have expirience with animals of all ages and sizes, including farm animals, cage animals, and of course tons of experience with dogs and cats! I was raised with 3 dogs/3 cats/and other farm animals of my own, so I am equipped to care for a “furry family” of any size. I have excellent communication skills and am dedicated to following your pets daily/nightly routine. Lots of expirience with house sitting and making sure all animals are happy and healthy! Expirience with administering medication and bathing of pets :) I am a hard worker and very reliable, especially when it comes to caring for someone elses home or pets. Once booked, I can assure that I will be dedicated to keeping your animals as my number one priority. My schedule is fairly open so I can commit to 24hr stays or overnight stays :) My home has a fence around the whole property which allows for my pups to have access to both inside and outside as they please. I am comfortable with both indoor and outdoor pet environments, I can accommodate to any routine that is right for your pets.

I'm also available for dog/cat boarding during the week and on weekends if you need reliable, loving care while you're away.

About: I have taken care of animals as long as I can remember. At 12 I raised my first service dog, and since raised another service dog through Guide Dogs of America. I have house/dog/cat/bunny sat for animals of all ages and temperaments. I am excited to meet your furry, or not so furry, friend! I am currently working part time so I will have lots of time to take care of your pups. I am more than happy to discuss scheduling. I am comfortable with many different environments.

The average cost of House Sitting in Felton is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $93 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.

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 Felton 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 Felton 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 Felton 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 Felton. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
