“Crystal took amazing care of my newly adopted dog, Ziggy, and my two cats while I was away. She did such a great job with them, and it was obvious they all loved her. I also really appreciated that when I got delayed getting back into town because of traffic, she came back out again to make sure Ziggy got dinner and could get out since I was going to be home pretty late. That meant a lot and was truly above and beyond. She’s awesome, super dependable, and I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Holly’s amazing! We’re so grateful to be able to travel and know our dogs are being cared for by a genuine animal lover. Our dogs are big bodies with bigger personalities, and Holly takes them and their needs in stride. Holly’s also a great communicator, which is so helpful when life gets hectic 😅”
“Jeff has sat for me a few times now both with drop ins and housesitting. He is more than great and I really appreciate him. The pets were happy, cared for and love the updates and pictures. I have an older dog and he took great care of her. Thank you Jeff!”
“Aeries did really good watching over my dog and 2 cats. I will definitely be bringing her back next time I leave. She was very attentive and gave me updates (pictures) daily. 💚 Really great service!”
“Morgan stayed with our doggo while we were out of town for a holiday. Our pup was well loved and she shared daily photos of their fun together. She also took care of his daily medications. If your dog loves belly scratches and plenty of love, then Morgan is a good fit for you!”
“Anna house housesat for my family and couldn’t have provided better care. I’ve worked in Animal Welfare for over 20yrs and have a high standard for care of my senior pets. Anna was extremely attentive providing amazing care, left the house clean and sent daily updates. She trustworthy, kind hearted and the utmost professional.”
“Nellie is the absolute best! She always kept us updated on our pup (Mango) status and made her feel so special and even got her to go on walks beyond her comfort zone! And even though we were only gone 1 week, when we got home Mango was now missing Nellie! Nellie was like having one of our family watch our dog and we will definitely use her again whenever Mango needs a sitter.”
“I was really stressed trying to find the perfect pet sitter for my two quirky rescues while planning a trip to Europe. I knew when I met Tonya for the first time that she was perfect for the challenge. She is a very kind and responsible person. I will hire her again when I go on my next adventure.”
“Toni swooped in at the last minute when another Sitter backed out on me! During the meet and greet, she got right down on the floor with Pucca to meet her and play with her. Pucca absolutely loves her! I could tell by the way Pucca got majorly excited and happy when Toni came back for a visit today to pick up a couple of things that were accidentally left behind. Pucca was so happy to see her that I'm convinced she was treated well and with love and affection. I was away for 8 days. Toni arrived on time and I was able to get an early visit start so that I could make it to the airport on time. When my friend's truck broke down and I thought I may be later than expected arriving home, she had no problem with it. (I was on time though). She even said she didn't mind taking Pucca to my Vet to get her Citopoint shot and glands done. (I was going to get an appointment when I got home, now I don't have to). With my permission, she took Pucca along with her to her place when she went home to do laundry. When I asked for a Video Chat here and there, I was accommodated. It is my opinion that Pucca was well loved, cared for and looked after while I was away. ***NOTE*** Upon my return, I found a typwritten "Toni's Care Notes for Pucca" stating her eating habits, walk schedule & health. Nice touch.”
“Once again, Brian was amazing. He was very loving towards our dog, took her on hour long walks even though she can be very difficult, and left our house clean and tidy.”
“Brandy is absolutely our favorite person and dog sitter. We feel so comfortable leaving Ace with her. She takes such good care of him, and our house, and keeps us up to date on the happenings which is so nice for peace of mind.”
“Alison and her little one Cassidy were perfect caregivers for my Lily. They stayed at my home and made sure she went on plenty of walks, and kept up with her relentless energy playing with toys. I was provided with plenty of photos and updates while I was away. Couldn’t be more thankful for the help over the holiday while I was gone.”
“Kayln watched our cat, Loaf, for a week with just short notice. She came by prior to us leaving town for a meet and greet, and we got great pictures everyday and came home to a happy cat and a clean house, maybe even cleaner than we left it! I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting.”
“Jann was wonderful with our puppy! She sent us pictures and videos and kept us updated on how our pup was doing. She is so sweet and caring. When our flight was delayed she was willing to stay later than originally planned. She is the best and we will definitely be having her back!! Thank you, Jann for going above and beyond!!”
“Paris was a great doggy and house sitter for us on a weekend trip we took. She was very communicative with updates about our pup and made us feel very comfortable leaving our little guy! Thank you again, Paris!”
“Arielle P was a wonderful pet sitter! She took great care of our pups. She sent pictures every day, kept us informed as to how they were doing, and let us know if she had any concerns or questions. We highly recommend her!”

Willow was communicative, on time, and followed instructions for my three cats. Which included medication for one of them. They provided pictures and updates as well. I didn’t feel worried at all while I was gone which is always a great feeling when you have pets.
Meghan was so great watching our pup and home! Spoiled our girl with lots of love and kept me updated throughout our trip with pictures so we never had to worry. Even was able to stay an extra day when our flight home was cancelled last minute. Highly recommend :)
We feel so fortunate to have found Valerie! She was confident, inquisitive and professional. She housesat and took care of three pets for over a week. Our animals were happy and well-cared for in our absence and the house was just as we left it. I highly recommend her.
Sandra was AMAZING. She went out of her way to spend extra time with our boy and took great care of him while we were gone. She sent many updates about how he was doing which put our mind at ease while traveling. She went above and beyond and left our home so tidy and ready for our return. We will absolutely book with Sandra again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fobes Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fobes Hill on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 6,782 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fobes Hill. 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 Fobes Hill 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 Fobes Hill 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 Fobes Hill 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.
