“Alexandra was wonderful with my dogs! She was especially patient with my younger dog’s playfulness and mindful of my older dogs needs. I’d recommend her to anyone and look forward to having her watch them again!”
“Great communication and care! We were so lucky that Claudia was able to watch our cats and dog while we went out of the country. They took to her from the start. Definitely gave us peace of mind.”
“Athena was such a great Dogsitter for Roscoe and Midge. She came early to meet them, she stayed later than we’d arranged, she washed the linens, and she sent photos of happy dogs. She was so flexible and communicative and friendly during a week with a lot of schedule uncertainty, which I really appreciated. We look forward to having Henry sit again.”
“Joules was great with our anxious dog! They helped make sure he was comforted during 4th of July fireworks and were flexible when flight changes shifted our plans. We appreciated knowing Toby was taken care of!”
“Sarah was a godsend to be able to accept my very last minute request! She was super friendly, flexible and communicative and clearly a dog lover. If I am ever in this area again I would definitely book with her again!”
“Caroline is fantastic! I highly recommend her for caring for your pets. She responded quickly and provided updates! She's very friendly and respectful and my pets enjoyed her company. I would use her services again.”
“Our pets (dog, cat and fish) were very well taken care of by Chris while we were away for over a week. Chris asked lots of detailed questions, sent regular updates, and even got to pet our very shy kitty, who is terrified of strangers. Everyone was very happy and healthy upon our return. We will definitely book with Chris again.”
“Karina was amazing. Our dogs loved her and she took excellent care of them. We have 4 dogs and three of them are older, knowing she is also a vet tech gave us even more peace of mind. We will absolutely hire her again!”
“Brianna was communicative and loved by both dogs. We returned home to find a clean and tidy house and relaxed dogs. I highly recommend Brianna and will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“We came home from a four-day trip to a happy, healthy dog who received Rose's excellent care. She was equally gracious about caring for our house, even our ailing basil plant. And her pet photography gave us the best photos we've had of our dog in a long time. She's also a joy to be around. We would give her ten stars if we could.”
“Luna stayed at our house with our lab for a week. Our pup seemed happy when we returned; Luna had to give her meds twice a day and follow her multi a-step feeding schedule. The house was clean and orderly ( and mail was picked up!). We hope to be in contact with Luna every time we have to be away from home she was great and communicative!”
“We booked Ruby for house sitting and she did a great job! Our dog, Monty, had a good friend to hang out with and was given his normal medicine. Our house was left in perfect condition.”
“Hannah is amazing! We needed someone to watch our Yorkie for the weekend on pretty short notice & Hannah was super flexible and great to work with. She checked in regularly and took amazing care of our dog - changing her schedule to stay with him through storms and using all the methods to get our anxious guy to eat (which he did!). It was such a relief to know he was in such great hands. I’m excited to know we have someone so great that can watch him!”
“Lindsay is wonderful! She saved us in a pinch (we had not planned ahead well:) and turned out to be a fantastic house/pet-sitter. Our dog and cat looked very content when we returned and, a particularly pleasant surprise, our house looked cleaner than we had left it! Thank you, Lindsay, for your excellent care!”
“Maddy was wonderful with Reesi! She took such great care of our dog and showed her so much love. I couldn’t have been happier when I returned from a long weekend away. Maddy’s communication was excellent and gave me peace of mind the entire time. I will definitely use Maddy again and will happily recommend her to our friends.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Freeville
Ariana did an excellent job caring for my dog and home. This was my first time using Rover, and my first time having someone other than family stay at my house and watch my dog, and I was so pleased with how well it went. I appreciated Ariana’s thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and consistent communication. And, most importantly, my dog really enjoyed her company!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Freeville on Rover is $38.85 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 192 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Freeville. 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 Freeville 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 Freeville 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 Freeville 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 Freeville. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
