About: Animals have been one of the biggest parts of my life, and caring for them is something i genuinely love to do. From being my family’s go-to pet sitter growing up to working professionally as a kennel tech at a doggy daycare and humane society. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and ages. Over the years I have worked with dogs, horses, cats, fish, and chickens, this includes some hands on experience caring for animals on farms. I currently have dogs of my own so I understand how important it is to be able to trust and find someone who truly wants the best for your pets. While your pet is in my care, they will be able to receive plenty of pets, attention, affection, and exercise. I strive to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own. 💖 Also, I’m planning on pursuing veterinary science which reflects on my commitment to learning and expanding my knowledge on animals and how to properly care for them. Whether your pet loves long walks, cuddles, playtime, or simply keeping up with routine, I am dedicated to personalizing the care they need and deserve. I have lots of experience with puppies, senior dogs, administering medication, and helping nervous or anxious pets feel comfortable at their own pace. I can also provide daily pictures, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they are happy, safe, and being cared for. 😊 I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care and understand the trust that comes with caring for your beloved pets. 😊 Im currently doing pet care full-time at the moment, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m open for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. 😊 When caring for pets in clients homes, I respect their routines and environment to help keep pets feeling safe, comfortable and secure. I understand every pet has unique needs, so I strive to provide personalized care based on their routine, comfort level, and personality.
“We were away for 8 nights and felt comfortable the entire time because our dogs were in good hands. Chris was a great communicator, followed the schedule, and did a great job taking care of our 2 high energy, sometimes high stress dogs. One of our dogs has significant fear during storms, and Chris did a nice job handling that and providing reassurance.”


“Best dog sitter ever! She sent photos, and videos, the doggies loved her. She gave them 2 walks a day, and even cleaned our house. How nice it was to come home and have happy fur kids, and a clean house!”

“This was our first time ever having someone who isn’t a family member or close friend watch our dog and I felt so comfortable with Reggi staying in our home and taking care of our dog! She was warm and professional all at the same time. Highly recommended Reggi!”

“Estefanny took care of our two dogs (one a senior requiring medications, the other a 10 month old puppy) and our bearded dragon this past weekend. She was able to stay at our place and be with them the for the period of time we needed. This was our first time using Rover so we were a bit nervous about it all. But Estefanny alleviated all those nerves! We are so thankful for her! Estefanny took care of our babies with thorough love and attention. She snuggled them, engaged with them, everything you’d want for your animal babies and more! We also received continuous updates via messages, pictures, and videos. This being our first time with a Rover sitter, those updates meant the world to us! We strongly recommend Estefanny as your potential pet sitter! She went above and beyond. She was a true professional and we were so lucky to have the chance to work with her. We already have her scheduled for an upcoming trip. If you need a pet sitter, Estefanny is your person!”

“Brooke was just fabulous with all my fur babies! She is patient, inquisitive, kind and caring. She was in very in tune with my all four of my fur babies’ needs, and was responsive to my questions both in person and via the phone/text. Brooke caught on quickly to all their little idiosyncrasies and took it all in stride. I have had a dog that is terrified of any type of rainstorms. She can tell that a storm is coming when it’s two hours away! So, she needs her meds, her thundershirt and she needs understanding when it comes to getting her in her safe space. She even stayed calm when my cat brought her a mouse. None of my fur babies appeared to miss me at all! She sent me daily updates, considered each pet’s individual needs, and took good care of my home. My home is not easy to manage, but she handled it very well. My family loved the stories I shared from Brooke while I was on vacation with. I would highly for anyone’s pet sitting needs.”

“Beth and her daughter were wonderful house sitters!! They followed my detailed instructions carefully and there were no issues. Beth sent pictures of my pets and even videos of my puppies playing in the yard. She responded to all my texts quickly with updates as I wanted them. The house was left in perfect order, just the way I left it, and she even washed the sheets and towels they used. I highly recommend Beth and her daughter!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was able to drive myself. My neighbors, family members & friends have trusted me to care for their pets for years. I absolutely love dogs & would love to be able to help you keep them safe & happy in the home. I work 40 hours per week and my schedule changes weekly. So my pets get most of the attention after work or before. Check availability! My schedule is weird, but works because i have days off during the week. I have two dogs currently. I love caring for them & enjoy spending time with them after working, I would love to add a few more to the list.
“Shelly was extremely attentive to my two girls while house sitting during my holiday trip. I was grateful for the many photos I received and she was accommodating about their routine. I recommend Shelly to anyone who wants peace of mind that their animals will be well taken care of.”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m really patient, whether it’s a puppy still learning or an older pet that needs things slower and a little extra care. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, giving meds if needed, and paying attention to small changes so nothing gets missed. I want you to feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting lots of love. my flexible school schedule allows me to easily prioritize pet care around classes, ensuring your cat receives dedicated attention and reliable visits exactly when needed. my routine focuses on maintaining their specific feeding and litter schedules while providing professional medical monitoring, play and quiet companionship without the stress of travel.
“Erica loves animals and Luna loves people so I was comforted by several updates with pictures. Luna was happy. And Erica took her to the coffee shop for a pup cup! Luna knows her way around the drive thru circuit for milk bones and ice cream 😉 But the real drama was calling her at the last minute and she was able to take care of Luna during a holiday. Another sitter on Rover was booked but recommended Erica and you know the rest of the story. Luna was happy when I came home ❤️ Thanks again Erica!”

Lileah did an awesome job caring for my Dobermans. She was on time, conscientious and very loving with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and was always responsive when I reached out to her. She has a great attitude and a desire to do a great job...which she does!
Reggi did a great job with Eugene. He’s not always the easiest dog with new people and can be leash reactive, but she connected with him right away and handled him really well. We got updates and photos while we were away, and Eugene was calm and relaxed when we got home. Would definitely recommend and book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Freeport on Rover is $79.92 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 150 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Freeport. 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 Freeport 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 Freeport 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 Freeport 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 Freeport. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
