“Crystal was absolutely outstanding during her four-night stay caring for my dog, fish, shrimp, and home. My dog required extra attention—he had to wear a cone and needed regular eye drops—and Crystal handled it all with patience, care, and total competence. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. She also went the extra mile to reposition my battery-operated Ring camera so I could watch him napping around the house. On top of that, Crystal cared for my four aquariums (not a small job!) and followed my detailed list of instructions perfectly. Everything was clean, organized, and exactly as I left it. Beyond her reliability, Crystal is simply a joy to work with—sweet, funny, and clearly a true animal lover. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I highly recommend Crystal without hesitation. She went above and beyond, and I would absolutely trust her again.”
About: Had my first pet at a young age and I have always shown them love and attention. Love how much they just want to be Love and be Loved. Work part time and have lots of time to Pet Sit. Very flexible with my schedule and this is something that will be perfect for me to do as I love and do well with our Fur Family. I've got a yard with fence around it and for my cats they have a cat litter box on each for so they have easy access to it. I'm very attentive to making sure their cat litter gets scooped up daily to keep them happy, healthy and comfortable.
“Maris is very responsible, conscientious and responsive. Rocky was very well cared for and when a question or issue about his care arose, she quickly reached out to me to solve the issue. Maris sent lots of updates and photos and I have to believe that Rocky thoroughly enjoyed his time with her. I will definitely have Maris stay with Rocky again.”
“Hands down, Guinevere has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She responded in a very timely manner, kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing and sent many pictures. Two of our dogs normally go on a hunger strike when we leave, but this was no problem with Guinevere there. She even won over our crabby dog! House was left cleaner than when we left. We’re excited to book with Guinevere again in the near future.”
“Carlina kept me up to date daily, gave my dog extra walks and managed her medication with no issues. Thank you, Carlina for taking good care of Sarah and staying with her at our home!!”
“We are so happy we found Brittni to watch our pets over the holiday weekend! She was eager to help during a last minute booking, was very responsive, and we came home to happy pets that were well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely book her again for future trips. Thank you Brittni!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for family, friends, and Rover for years and am excited by every opportunity I get to spend with them! I've been a dog owner myself for over 5 years. I can easily adjust my sitting style for dogs with a lot of energy or ones that are a little more relaxed. I am happy to sit in and give belly rubs or take them out on a long walk with me! My home has a fenced in backyard and there are plenty of places to walk near me. I typically work full time during the week at a non-profit theatre, I'm always happy to meet in person before we make final arrangements. I love taking care of dogs and I'd be happy to spend some time with the dog in your life!
About: I have had pets all my life, and I truly love caring for and looking after them because being around animals brings me happiness, comfort, and a strong sense of joy every day. I’m free most of the day. I only work at night only for a couple hours and would love to take care of any fluffy friends. I would treat your pets like my own babys. Always keep a watch on them, feed them, walk them,play with them, and clean them
“Jackie took wonderful care of our two dogs and cat while we were gone for a long vacation. The house was cleaned when we came back home. She communicated about how everyone was doing throughout our trip. I highly, highly recommend her!!”
About: I genuinely love animals sooo much and I care about making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a 19 yr old who has had dogs and cats of my own, I have experience understanding their different personalities, needs, and behaviors. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m happy to help with puppies who are still learning routines, and senior pets who may need extra patience, gentle care, and attention. I also understand how important it is to keep pets on their usual schedules, give them plenty of affection, and make sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to give every pet the same love and care I would want someone to give my own! I'm currently on a prolonged break from work for around 2 weeks, so my schedule is quite empty. I'd love to fill it with quality time and care for precious animals. I care for pets big and small from all ranges. I understand that the levels of attention, patience, boundaries, and competence are different varying from animal to animal. I'm willing to learn your furry family member's personality and care for him/her in the way that suits them best!
“Niki was a dream caregiver for our boy Charlie. She (and her little cutie pup Darby) welcomed him into her home like he was part of their family. This was our first time using Rover and boy did we get lucky to find Niki. She was extremely thorough with taking notes to consider all of his needs while we were away and communicated while we were gone so we knew he was in good hands. Thank you Niki for taking such great care of him!”

About: I am very good with animals, I love to be around them. It never feels like a chore when i take care of animals it feels like a privilege. I do work at giant in hellertown but I have free time most mornings. I would like to feel productive and be able to do something other then lay around before my shift starts.

About: …and ends with a tail! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I wanted nothing more than a cat of my own, and when I finally got one, I absolutely fell in love. That love for animals has only grown over the years. Today, I share my home with one cat and one dog who are truly part of our family. Caring for them every day has given me firsthand experience with the responsibility, patience, and attention pets need to feel safe, happy, and loved. My pet care experience includes caring for my own pets as well as pets belonging to family members and friends. I have also volunteered at a cat shelter, fostered kittens, and worked at a veterinary clinic, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and routines. I currently provide boarding and pet care services in my home. Depending on your pet’s needs, services may include feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication administration (if needed), cuddles, enrichment activities, and lots of one-on-one attention. I understand every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their normal routines to help them feel comfortable. I’m a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 12-year-old, which means I’m home and available most days and can spend a significant amount of time with pets throughout the day. Pet care is a priority in our home, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention. For boarding, I have a friendly dog and cat in the home. However, I also have a separate upstairs area with two large rooms available if your cat would be more comfortable having their own quiet space. I spend time in that area as well so boarded cats still receive plenty of companionship, affection, and interaction. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where pets feel at home while you’re away. I’m a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 12 year old, so I am home and available almost every day. Pet care is a priority to me. I have a friendly dog and cat. However, if you are more comfortable I have a separate upstairs with 2 large rooms that I can board your cat/s. I will post pictures of the room. I would be in there a lot to keep them company.
About: I grew up with 2 labradors and a cat for 15 years, and I currently have experience with a 2 year old pitbull. My dad is a veterinarian, so I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. I have great experience working in 2 veterinary hospitals, so I also know proper animal restraints and signs of sickness or discomfort. I love all kinds of dogs and cats and love spending time playing and being active with them. I’m currently a fully remote employee for a social services nonprofit. This job gives me the needed flexibility to provide the right care for your animal! I’m available on weekdays or weekends for walks or drop-ins. I can come to your home anytime, whether you are home or not, and am very careful to keep your home locked and safe. I love a greeting from your dog or cat right away or to grab them from a crate or room if needed and return them to the same spot once we’re done.

About: I have loved and taken care of dogs all my life. I’ve had dogs from puppies to seniors and understand how to care to all their needs. Along with that I take the time to really get to know each dog on their own and establish a connection so that each party is happy. I currently work a full time job. However I work from home so that allows me to be flexible with my time and always there to attend to the dogs. I have a fenced in yard and a dog of my own to give your fur baby’s company. The dogs can free roam around the house but I’ll always make sure I can see them. If preferred to be caged that is also possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fountain Hill
Yani was excellent! She took such thoughtful care of our boy, Tukee, and kept us updated with photos and videos throughout our trip. Coming home to a calm, happy cat was the best feeling. You could tell he’d gotten plenty of attention and love while we were away. She even left us a handwritten thank-you card, which was such a sweet touch. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!
Niki was a dream caregiver for our boy Charlie. She (and her little cutie pup Darby) welcomed him into her home like he was part of their family. This was our first time using Rover and boy did we get lucky to find Niki. She was extremely thorough with taking notes to consider all of his needs while we were away and communicated while we were gone so we knew he was in good hands. Thank you Niki for taking such great care of him!
Our regular sitter wasn't available so I was nervous about finding someone new to stay in our home with our feline brood. I found Amy and was immediately calmed. Amy is conscientious about house duties and warm and loving with our kitties. She was patient with my standoff-ish girl and medically challenged old man. She sent daily updates and pics and was flexible with her schedule. We really appreciate being able to rely on someone so responsible and caring.
I am so happy I reached out through Rover to Joshua. I have two large dogs and one of them has endless energy, two large cats, a leopard gecko and 10 chickens. Kind of last minute, I decided to take a quick weekend trip. My younger dog is a handful and I was worried that I would not find the person to understand and care for my puppy and all the others. Then I contacted Joshua. Punctual, polite, knowledgeable about breeds and specifics and best of all!?!? Finn likes him. I had a wonderful trip. Joshua sent photos and videos and kept me updated on how everything was at home. He stayed at my home and also hous sat for me. Joshua kept the house the way I keep it. He made ire to collect my mail and some medicine that was accidentally shipped and needed to be refrigerated. I would highly recommend Joshua for both house sitting and keeping a bunch af what most people would refer to as a group of large animals. Thank you Joshua!!!
We're so thankful we found Robert! As a bit of a neurotic pet parent, and with a whole bunch of special circumstances, we were worried we'd have a hard time trusting anyone to take care of our babies. From the first meet and greet we got a great sense of comfort from Robert, and even the dogs were comfortable with him almost immediately. He was able to take care of our paralyzed 19-year old and kept our other two separate due to behavior issues. We couldn't be happier and would 100% recommend Robert!
Ebony was very wonderful to work with. She was very caring and kind and conscientious and willing to help us in anyway with any little request that we had when she stayed with our kids (our dogs😉) while we were away. She sent us a great amount of pictures and diaries of the day which is great for a pet parent to receive while they’re away. I cannot say enough good things about Ebony and I highly, highly recommend her to take care of any of your pets . We will be contacting Ebony again… if she’s not too busy😊
We had such a wonderful experience with Sarah! Our cat is very shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to people, but she was so patient, gentle, and caring throughout the stay. The regular photo updates meant so much to us and really helped us relax while we were away. It was clear our cat felt safe and comfortable in her care, which is not easy to achieve with a shy cat. We came home to a happy, well cared for cat and a house that was just as we left it. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a warm and trustworthy house sitter.
Monique helped me out when I was in a pinch and had another sitter cancel on me day-of to watch my dog. She came by to meet him and was super friendly and helpful! She sent daily updates and was friendly to work with. I’ll definitely book her in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fountain Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fountain Hill is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $81 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.
As of October 2026, there are 1,476 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fountain 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 Fountain 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 Fountain 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 Fountain 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 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 Fountain Hill. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
