“McKenna did an excellent job with our high-energy Aussie, who can be a bit anxious sometimes. She was super communicative, punctual, and shared lots of photos and updates. This was the first time we left him overnight with someone other than family, and it was great to know he was in good hands with McKenna. She also left our house as clean, if not cleaner, than it was before. Excited to work with her again soon!”
“Veronica did a fantastic job taking care of my dog! She was professional, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. She provided regular updates and photos.I couldn’t have asked for better care—thank you, Veronica!”
“Lauren is a very caring dog sitter; our dogs were well taken looked after. We were kept up to date with all the great pics that Lauren shared with us while we were away. I would definitely recommend Lauren to anyone needing someone to stay with your pet/S.”
“Dana was great. She sent regular updates and photos of my dogs. She took good care of them, including the medicine that they required while she was sitting with them. Highly recommend her.”
“Jenny was absolutely great! she watched Tully for the weekend while we were at our wedding and he was such a happy boy. He had to be on antibiotics last minute and she was perfectly fine with giving them to him. She’s always so flexible and helpful. Thank you!!”
“Hieu and Anna are simply amazing pet sitters. One of our dogs needs special handling while walking in the neighborhood and they were able to handle her - even going on longer than usual walks! They sent us multiple pictures and updates daily, showing the amazing care they were giving our babies. They also were flexible when our travel plans needed to change unexpectedly and stayed an entire extra DAY while we worked on getting home. I definitely recommend them and will rebook again! Rosie and Zoey love their aunties!”
“Marie is amazing!!! My pets were thoughtfully taken care of and she provided me multiple updates and pictures while I was away! Would recommend and definitely will book again!”
“Our pups absolutely LOVED Reagan. We were always kept up to date with lots of pictures and videos of our fur babies. Communication was great and will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Truffle had a blast yet again! We really appreciated the videos of our pup’s adventures. Titi also got some cuddle time during the stay. The house was very clean when we got home and Renee even mowed the grass. Thank you for taking great care of our furry friends”
“Yocelyn obviously loves dogs, and my very anxious pocket bully fell in love with her immediately. Yocelyn has a relaxed feel to her, which was good for my dog, and she was also careful to give Farah her numerous supplements. She left the house as she found it and was responsive about letting us know how Farah was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Max was amazing extremely patient and super polite. I have a cattle dog that’s anxious and takes a minute to warm up to strangers, Max really took the time to get to know him and get him comfortable. He was very communicative with updates. Would definitely recommend”
“Zach was really kind and flexible. We knew our pups liked him right away by them immediately bringing toys to him to play, they don't always do that. Thank you Zach, you really put us at ease knowing that our pups were in good hands.”
“Lindsey is amazing and was a life saver for our entire family! Our dog does not do well out of her element and we had to go away for 4 days. Lindsey, sent pics, videos, cute messages, and reassuring notes for us that made us feel at ease. And, most importantly, Hershee was happy!”
“This was my first time using Rover. Tara housesat for me over 4 days. She came over to meet my Amstaff, Zoey, before booking. I really appreciated that time to get to know Tara a little, since I have never left Zoey with someone I don't know—and she is a 12-year-old dog that needs to go out to pee often. Throughout the stay, she sent photos and thoughtful updates, which was comforting to see/know that Zoey was in good hands. I came home to a happy dog and the house was left clean and tidy. I absolutely trust Tara with Zoey and my home—and will definitely book with her again!”
“Tatiana is the absolute best! My dogs love her and enjoy all the walks and playtime. Do not hesitate to book with her! You and your pets will have a great time!”
“5 stars all the way!! Rebeca was great with Molly! She took great care of her and it was a relieve for us to be able to go away and know she was doing well. She sent us pictures of Molly through out the stay. Will definitely book her again.”
“Amazing pet sitter that put us at ease from the first meet & greet. Eric was very punctual and listened to all our needs and followed our instructions with precision. Our dogs were happy and with the youngest being usually timid around new people. Eric took care to make them feel comfortable and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Would highly recommend!”
“Ajia is amazing! We utilized her as a house sitter for the first time. She was very responsive, our dog (who can be timid at times) loved her and she was very clean and respectful of our space. Highly recommend.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Franconia is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Franconia
I can’t say enough great things about Angela! While caring for Chloe, she quickly noticed signs that something wasn’t right and contacted me immediately. Because of her attentiveness and fast communication, we were able to get Chloe to the vet right away, where she was diagnosed with a pancreatitis flare up and received the treatment she needed. Her attention to detail, genuine concern, and proactive approach truly went above and beyond. It’s clear she cares deeply about the pets she watches and pays close attention to their well-being. I’m incredibly grateful for her quick action, which made a huge difference for my Chloe’s health. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitter!
Marie took wonderful care of our elderly lab, Emma! Emma has health issues, requires medication and frequent walks and Marie saw to her every need beautifully. We have had Emma only a few months and so she still adjusting to a new home. Marie was very loving and supportive.
I would highly recommend Jackie to care for your fur babies. She is caring, detail oriented, and has great communication. While I was out of town, she took care of my two pups and ancient cat like they were her own - did all the feedings, pottying, litter box cleaning, etc. I feel comfortable leaving them in her care and I’m so thankful to have found such a wonderful sitter.
This was the second time we used Tatiana to sit for our dog in our home, this time for 18 days! Not only did Tatiana provide excellent care and love for our sweet Lily, she also took great care of our home!! Tatiana sent pictures every day and we had zero concerns about our pup while we were gone. I cannot recommend Tatiana highly enough.
Wow! Adrian was absolutely the best. He stayed in our home with our animals (cats and giant dog) for a long weekend, and he could not have been better. He provided regular updates, gave such attentive care to our pets, and he left the place cleaner than when he arrived. The animals really seemed to love him. We will be using Adrian again and cannot recommend him highly enough.
Lana stayed with our cat for 5 nights and 6 days. With the kids leaving us for grad schools, we decided to have a family get away. We've never left our youngest member of the family without one of us at home. The cat has separation anxiety and we haven't gone anywhere ever since Cashmere was rescued. It was stressful trying to find the right sitter. We're so thankful for Lana. It was such a joy whenever we received updates from Lana. We got photos and videos. Lana even asked questions on how to make things more comfortable for Cashmere. I'm pretty sure that Cashmere is now wondering where her new friend has gone. We're definitely going to use Lana again in the future. I highly recommend Lana for your fur babies.
Thanks to Leah I was able to have an absolutely wonderful and guilt free vacation. Receiving those daily updates, photos and videos makes all the difference when you are away from home and could tell Redd and Tea were safe, loved and having a good time with all the walks, snuggles and attention. Priceless!
Kyle was awesome! He took great care of our old girl and followed all instructions. He sent updates with pics and was prompt to respond throughout our trip. Our dog was completely at ease and definitely got some solid walks in too which was great. We will use Kyle again and recommend him!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment we left, we received constant updates, tons of photos, and detailed messages that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were being genuinely cared for and loved while we were away. The communication was outstanding, and seeing so many pictures of our pups happy and comfortable made all the difference. Reliable, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire stay. We were so impressed that we’ve already booked her again for our summer travel. Highly recommend!
Rai is an absolute rockstar. She swooped in after a last-minute cancellation, wrangled our wild new puppy, and pampered our senior dog with his twice-a-day meds like it was no big deal. Our house was spotless when we got home, the pups looked like they were on vacation in every photo, and it’s obvious she’s a true **dog** person. 10/10, would trust her with our furry circus any time.
Joanna has been my sweet boy’s daily dog walker for 2 years, and I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her. She has become one of the most trusted people to my very reactive, shy dog - a true miracle worker! From her abundance of pictures, detailed updates, and vast experience, she’s truly a dog owner’s best friend. Thank you, Joanna!
Morgan was my life saver! I needed a last minute sitter two days before my 6 day trip. I reached out to Morgan and she was very helpful from the start. She was very responsive and respectful in the meet in greet. She took care of my home and dog for 5 nights. My dog and her got along super well, which was a breath of fresh air since we dog is picky about people! Came home to a clean house and happy dog! Thank you Morgan, would highly recommend!
This is our second time that Ray has cared for our sweet doggie in our home. She's a really caring sitter. She's experienced, has good judgment and loves animals, and she left our house in great shape. Having her take care of Honey in our home gave us real peace of mind. We will definitely ask her to watch Honey again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Franconia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Franconia on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 9,859 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Franconia. 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 Franconia 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 Franconia 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 Franconia 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.
