“Maya is amazing! Fantastic communication, lots of pictures shared with us to keep my heart happy while we were away. The house was kept in perfect shape, probably cleaner than it was when we left it! We have dogs who have to be kept separate at home and she did wonderful with understanding their circumstances and making sure both dogs were well taken care of and given lots of love. She even took them both out on walks during our short weekend trip. I cannot wait to have her stay at our house again.”
“Kinsey worked very hard to care for our energetic one year old dog. It can be very hard and probably a little overwhelming. I appreciate her communication. Thank you Kinsey!”
“He was just so great with our dogs. I felt really insecure about leaving them for the first time since we moved cross country. Brandon gave me peace of mind and tons of pics with notes that let me know the dogs were perfectly content with their sitter. We’re already planning the next trip and have booked Brandon for a second time. If we ever need dog sitting, he’ll be our go to guy.”
“Mia is wonderful! She took such good care of our new puppy who can be a handful at times. She sent updates and pictures and we actually stayed to chat afterwards and she is a lovely young woman. Will hire her again and again. Highly recommend!”
“Abby was wonderful watching our 2 German Shepherds. Our 1 year old can be very active, mouthy and demanding and we appreciated her honesty regarding some of his poor manners while we were gone. He is also on heart meds 3x per day and she was very conscientious about notifying me and following up with any issues. Great job keeping the house picked up too. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
“Tarah is amazing. She cared for our fur baby during the 4th weekend and Miss. Remi gets very anxious with loud sounds but Tarah went above and beyond to keep her comfortable. When we first met Tarah she was very personable and Remi went straight to her. She has excellent communication skills while keeping your pet. We highly recommend Tarah. We will definitely ask her to keep Remi again.”
“We love Tonia! She was fantastic with our two treasured pups. She was attentive, loving, and very clean/ organized, which always makes coming home a delight. She made sure to send a lot of pictures so we always knew our babies were well cared for. 100% recommend!”
“My rescue Rottie absolutely loved Grace. She was so good and patient with him. He decided that he was her lap dog. She sent lots of pictures and responds quickly. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur babies.”
“Grace is fantastic. I have 3 furbabies that can be a handful and she was willing to stay with them for a week. She was very communicative and I felt extremely comfortable leaving my girls with her. I came home to very happy puppies and my house was very well take care of. 10/10 recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have over 30 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with cats and have spent the last several years loving my own Aussiedoodle, Scout. We recently lost our cat, and I truly miss those kitty cuddles, so I’d be thrilled to spend time caring for yours. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply giving your pet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I’m active, dependable, detail-oriented, and happy to follow your pet’s routine exactly as you prefer. I’ll also send plenty of photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I work for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet check-ins. Whether your pet needs a midday potty break, a long walk, or some extra love while you’re away, I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and keep your furry family member happy, exercised, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I believe in earning both your trust and your pet’s trust through patience, consistency, and kindness. You’ll receive regular updates and photos during each visit, and I’ll always treat your home with the same respect I’d expect someone to show mine.
“Jen was amazing!! I think our Stats is depressed that she is gone lol. I would love to have Jen back the next time we go out of town. She sent pictures and videos which were so much fun to see!! I soooo appreciate her!!!”
“Serenity was wonderful. So communicative and there for my animals around the clock. I had a friend drop out at the last minute and was unable to take care of our animals but serenity was ready to take care of them the second I reached out. She has done a great job of taking care of my dog pets needs and making me feel secure in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would love to use her services in the future!”
“Sienna is great! She is awesome at communicating and very loving to our Buddy. She spent lots of time with him and left the house exactly as we left it. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Elisa was lovely! Easy to communicate with and very clearly loves dogs. She took very good care of our 3 month old puppy and our 6 year old German Shepherd, so she is well versed in dogs big and small. She sent lots of photos and I could tell my girls were happy and comfortable with her. We will absolutely ask Elisa back!”
“Julie was so helpful to us! She took care of our elderly dog and skittish kitty with as much love as we would have. She provided regular updates and photos and even did light housekeeping for us-that we didn’t expect at all!! I highly recommend Julie for your pets and home.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Five Points is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Five Points
We were extremely happy with our recent experience with Jenna. Our pre-meeting and setup was easy and Lola took to her right away. On the day of our travel, Jenna let us know when she arrived and we received timely communications including photos during the week. Some of the photos showed Jenna playing with Lola. When we returned, Lola seemed well adjusted and cared for. On our last day, Jenna texted us to wish us a safe journey home. When we got home our house was clean with no traces of anyone living there. Much appreciated.
We had such a great experience with Sienna! She stayed at our home while we were away and took incredible care of our two pups. It was clear from the start that she treated them just like we would, which gave us real peace of mind while traveling. She kept us consistently updated, which we really appreciated, and was especially attentive to the needs of our older dog. Finding someone reliable and capable of handling that level of care hasn’t been easy, so this meant a lot to us. On top of everything, we came home to a spotless house. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful house / pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Five Points
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Five Points on Rover is $34.41 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 1,023 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Five Points. 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 Five Points 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 Five Points 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 Five Points 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.

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.
