“Minh was great! She took amazing care of my dog, was very responsive and sent me fun pictures and updates while I was away. I came home to a very happy boy so I couldn’t be happier!”
“Stephanie took wonderful care of our older German shepherd. She adjusted her support as my dog needed it and made sure she was cared for. I highly recommend Stephanie.”
“EJ's attention to detail was exceptional. She thoroughly reviewed the information about Tessie, asked questions, and made sure that she understood Tessi's routine, and the house. Tessie had a medical emergency that required a visit to the vet. EJ handled the issue proffessionaly and compasionately and made sure the Tessie got the proper treatment, kept me informed, and followed up with the appropriate treatment when they returned home. Tessie is doing well. Tessie was well cared for while I was away. The house was spotless. EJ was exceptional.”
“Rose watched my two cats over a 4 day period—Stayed at my house caring for them and keeping them entertained. They provided updates and lots of cute photos. I would absolutely have Rose back for cat sitting!”
“We love Heather so much! She watched our two dogs and cat for 5 nights, and took such good care of all of them. She has great communication, attention to detail, sends updates and photos, and most of all is sweet and kind with our animals. Our reactive dog loves her calm demeanor. Thanks, Heather!”
“Laura did a great job. Whiskers can be a challenge showing up at all hours of the night and Laura was there to let him in. She made sure he had his wet food, treats and Hydra care just as I requested. She watered our plants and when I got home the house was just as clean as when I left.”
“Wow!! We have been using Rover for 10 years and Megan is our first "perfect" sitter. She is super communicative, sends pictures with excellent little daily write ups that arent too short or too invasively long/frequent, and followed our instructions to a T. My neighbor even remarked that my dog seemed happy and content when she spotted them walking the lake together. I came home to a perfectly clean house - Megan had even washed and remade the guest bed and laid out her clean towels! The house also smelled heavenly with the dinner she had made before I arrived home; she must be a great cook. Even my plants had all thrived and seemed to be very happy and growing. If the plants are happy too, you know that you found a gem! ;) Not once did Megan call or text me with an emergency or needing help with small little idiosyncrasies when staying in a new home. She was incredibly self sufficient, reliable, and respectful of my home - but also great about communicating her needs upfront during our consultation, or asking permission via text while I was away. Truly a perfect sitter. I highly recommend you book with her.”
“Vanessa did such a great job watching over our home and fur babies! It was such a relief to know that my two cats and two dogs were taken care of while our family was away for a wedding weekend. Would definitely bring Vanessa back again.”
“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”
“Victoria is amazing! We were struggling with leaving our fur babies for a week, but Victoria put our mind at ease. She took such good care of our babies and home. When she stopped by to drop off the key all of our dogs (3 of them) were excited to see her again. To top it off, she is just a genuinely amazing person that is kind and trustworthy. We will absolutely be using her in the future.”
“Matthew was awesome. My shy boy, William, took to him instantly. He has a new best friend. Bailey was very shy at first. Matthew was very patient and she eventually interacted with him more. I would highly recommend Matthew. He took very good care of my babies and our home.”
“Natalie did an amazing job when she stayed with my tibetan terrier, Syrah, who has separation anxiety and has never had a stranger stay with her before. Syrah instantly took to her from the moment she entered the door when she came to introduce herself. Natalie is very compassionate about her job and her love for pets. She has excellent communication and shares photos and updates of your pet throughout her stay. Having never used a pet sitter before, I wasn’t sure what to expect but she made it super easy to leave and be on vacation knowing my dog was being well cared for and smothered in cuddles! I came home to a house that looked exactly as I left it. Natalie is very respectful of your home and belongings and treats everything with care. She made sure she cleaned up before leaving and even washed the linens used during her stay! I am so thankful for having found Natalie and would recommend her without hesitation! I’ll definitely have her back as she does a wonderful job caring for my lil one. My dog had so much fun, she’s still trying to catch up on rest and snoring rather loudly 2 days later!”
“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs - Archie and Frankie! She sent us updates daily with pictures. The house was clean when we returned and she even watered my outside plants. We will definitely request Sarah to pet sit for us again. Thank you Sarah!”
“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
About: I provide loving, dependable, and attentive care for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and comfort levels, so I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I’m comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including pets who need extra patience, frequent potty breaks, medication reminders, or a little extra attention. I enjoy keeping pets active with walks and playtime while also giving them plenty of cuddles and downtime. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family. I’m responsible, communicative, and focused on giving pet parents peace of mind with updates and photos while their pets are in my care. I work from home, which allows me to be home throughout the day and provide pets with plenty of attention and supervision. I’m able to accommodate regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and lots of love throughout the day. Because I work remotely, pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I can easily work their care into my daily routine while making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at home. We have a fully fenced backyard, giving pets a secure space to enjoy fresh air, play, and get some exercise while being supervised. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles.
“Paul was great with the pups and it’s nice to come home to a clean house. I loved all the pics he sent. I highly recommend him as a pup sitter. Would hire him again in a minute.”
“This was the first time we used this type of service. All other times we needed a sitter for our dog we used family to care for our dog. We had 2 concerns a stranger taking care of our dog and a stranger in our house. We decided on Drew who was an excellent choice. We did a meet and greet. During the meet and greet we told Drew everything she needed to know to care for our dog. She asked questions and took notes. While away Drew sent many pictures each day. Took Suzy on walks and described how each day went. We made an excellent choice in using Drew as an in house dog sitter. We will use her service again.”
“Khaytlen was absolutely amazing while staying at my home to take care of my 2 GSDs. She treated both my pups and my house with the utmost care and respect. I received regular updates and photos, and it was clear that Holly and Kane were happy, super active with long walks, and well loved the entire time. The house was spotless when I returned, and my dogs barely seemed to notice I’d been gone — the best sign of all! I couldn’t have asked for a more reliable, thoughtful, and kind sitter. I’ll definitely be booking Khaytlen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted in-home dog sitter! 🐾”
“We loved having Andrea watch our 6 month old puppy, Olive. She sent plenty of pictures and updates to let us know that all was well and set our minds at ease. She also left the house spotless. We will happily have her back to stay in the future!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Fife Heights is $63

Marlon was a wonderful dark sitter for Lola. She got to go on car rides. She played with other dogs and he was very cautious and careful with Lola. She had the best time he was very communicative with me and keep it in touch every step of the way glad to have him back again anytime thanks again Marlon
Laura did a great job. Whiskers can be a challenge showing up at all hours of the night and Laura was there to let him in. She made sure he had his wet food, treats and Hydra care just as I requested. She watered our plants and when I got home the house was just as clean as when I left.
We were very happy with Rose. She kept us in touch with our pets activities. She send messages and photos of both Oliver and Eigen. She went above our expectations making sure our kitty adjusted to a new caregiver. She let our home in order. We love to have her back. Pam & Dana
Nothing but good things to say about Minh. We received lots of pics of our boy relaxed, playing and with big smiles on his face. He loved being walked around the neighborhood twice a day. Minh and Cash hung out in the backyard, and had frozen pupsicle's. We are confident that we can take trips, now that we have Minh to hold down the fort and to watch our boy. We highly recommend Minh!
Mariana is wonderful with our dogs! She is very trustworthy and responsible. She keeps us updated and sends us pictures of the dogs throughout her stay. This is our second time with Mariana, and we will use her again. Thank you Mariana for taking care of Archie and Frankie!
Madison did a great job watching my dog! She followed all my directions and left a clean home. She was responsive to messages and agreed to do a meet and greet before. She even watered my plants while I was away. I returned to a happy and healthy dog! I would definitely book her again and recommend her to a friend!! :)
Rain did an incredible job taking care of our anxious corgi and elderly kitty. We had just moved from out of state and it was our first time ever hiring a pet sitter while we flew back home to visit family for about five days, so we were nervous about figuring out animal care while we were gone. We found Rain here on Rover and they did such an incredible job at taking care of them and sending cute pictures and updates while we were gone. When we came home, we could tell that they were happy and well taken care of and Rain even left a little calming dog tv for our boy in the interim of our plane landing/driving home. I would highly recommend Rain and would most definitely book again as well! ^_^
Xime is an absolute gem and exactly the kind of sitter every dog owner dreams of finding. We've used Xime multiple times for our two 3-month-old Shih Tzu puppies, and she never disappoints. Anyone who has raised puppies knows how demanding they are, hourly potty trips, nap schedules, kennel routines, white noise machines, kennel cam monitoring, and Xime handles all of it flawlessly, without being asked twice. From the start, she was proactive in asking for instructions and clearly came prepared. Our pups absolutely adore her, they light up the moment they see her, but then settle right into their routine, which tells you everything about how consistent and calm she is with them. She is incredibly attentive and intuitive with them, and it shows. Xime keeps a detailed log of every potty trip and what happened, plus nap times and wake-up times, so we always know exactly how their day went. On top of that, she sends regular updates, photos, and videos and she has a genuine talent for photography. The shots she captures of our pups are absolutely adorable. She is also a respectful, tidy guest in our home. We honestly would never have known she was there. Communication is easy, clear, and responsive, and booking with her is a breeze. If you have puppies especially, Xime is exceptional. We trust her completely and couldn't recommend her more highly.
Sierra was awesome. She took great care of my senior dog while I was out of town. Her daily updates not only confirmed her food & medicine schedule, but also reports on her behavior in & out of the house. Ruth can be a stinker, but was fortunately well-behaved with her houseguest! I would definitely book with Sierra again!
Kieran has been a great rover sitter for Jack and my house. She is a very good communicator and shares about each day she spends with Jack including photos. I know my pup is in good hands and that she really cares about him. I have utilized Kieran multiple times now because of this great service.
I have two very sweet dogs that really just do better at home than in unfamiliar environments. Andrew was exactly what they needed. Throughout my trip he provided regular updates and took great care of my fur babies. I can’t explain in words how nice it was to know they were well taken care of in their home during my trip. Thank you Andrew!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fife Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fife Heights on Rover is $53.5 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 7,817 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fife Heights. 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 Fife Heights 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 Fife Heights 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 Fife Heights 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 Fife Heights. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
