“We have had Max for 6 years and have always been lucky to have a family member nearby, until now. Elizabeth was amazing! Max fell in love with her during their first meeting. She stayed at the house and walked, fed and played with him. While we were away, she would check in at least 2x per day with a message from Max and pictures, which put my mind at ease immediately. Max was happy and healthy when we got home. We look forward to having Max's new BFF come to take care of him again!!”
“Flower did a great job house sitting and caring for Willie and Molly for 5 days, she sent photos and videos daily. They played and had meals and snuggles and treats. My dogs love her.”
“Ariana took great care of our dogs! She made sure they played and were safe during a huge storm. She also made sure they got a lot of snuggles. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Christy provided excellent care for our dog throughout her stay with him. She easily established a rapport with him as soon as they met each other. She was cooperative with adhering to all directions left for her. She was proactive in sending lots of pictures, which put our minds at ease. She was very accommodating in adjusting to last minute schedule changes as well. I hope to use her services again and highly recommend her to others!”
“Julia was a perfect fit for our dog. He was healthy and happy when we came home - she was spot on giving him all his medications. She even got him outside to see some old friends ;-).”
About: I am new to online pet care! I have had pets all my life and have pet sit family and friends fur babies for over 20 years! Last 5 years I have been pet sitting outside of family & friends pets. I am experienced in small-medium sized dogs mainly. I've never pet sit a cat before but i do have a cat of my own! Currently, the pets i have in the house are two dogs, 1 cat and 1 reptile. I work full time, 2 days out of the week I work from home. My hours are flexible so if changes are needed no worries! I do not work weekends. At my home: I have a fenced in yard. If your pet has special requirements i will follow those requirements without a problem. My home will be their home during their stay. My house isn’t set up like a boarding school. They will hang with us in the living room, follow us throughout the house if they want too. If you have special rules, I will follow them. I have two dogs, the dogs i pet-sit would have to be ok with dogs. I have a cat who mainly remains downstairs with my son. If your dog does not like cats that will not be a problem. Clients home: your house, your rules! i will follow the schedule you have for your pets!
About: Looking to help people with their doggy pet care needs! I had my dog Buddy for 15 years since he passed a couple of years ago, he was my everything, so know how important it is to have someone care for your pet like they are part of your family ❤️Went thru all the stages of life with him from training to his elder days of taking care with doggy dimentia and incontinence issues.I’ve also been around and helped my family and friends with their dogs and cats and put my love into doing that ❤️I’m great with walking , feeding, and just overall play with animals and enjoy it as much as they do, I really take pride and care in each pet I’m watching and treat them as if they were my family. I work a part time job in an acupuncture office doing front desk so have a lot of free time to help out and walk dogs or take care of them during the day for people. I also have my own condo so can also have pets stay and take care of or I can go to houses to pet sit that are not to far away. I don’t have any other pets at the moment and live alone so a safe and good environment, I live in a complex that is pet friendly and a lot of areas outside to walk and play .
“Was so fortunate to find Hayden at the last second. She was great with our two crazy dogs and treated our home with care. Would be happy to have her stay and care for guys again anytime. (Only sad that she was only available due to being home during winter break from college!)”
“Nicole provided exceptional care for our dog during our week out of town. She was our first Rover hire, and we have no complaints, just appreciation! Our dog Lucy has a lot of anxiety about new experiences and people, but she loved Nicole! We definitely will book Nicole again in the future.”

“David took care of everything and everyone—from our Velcro dog who became his best bud to our 16 year old very shy kitty who ended up snuggling up and sleeping with him. It was so nice to come home to happy healthy pets and everything at the house taken care of. I highly recommend David and will be seeking out his services again. Thank you!!!”

About: My dog Chanel is my world so it would be a pleasure to share that same love to others. I’ve grown up around dogs between all of my family so this is a joy to experience. I currently work day shifts and very loyal to my schedule of care with my dog at home. It would be no burden or issue at all to care for others 4 legged friends. The same care I provide to my own as if she was my daughter is the same care I’d give to others pets. Any dog in my care is my family.
“We were in town for graduation and were so lucky to find Keily! I was anxious about leaving our 7 month old puppy with a stranger so was very relieved when Keily was excellent in every aspect. She truly exceeded my expectations. Keily is very professional and communicative. She really cared about my puppy and clearly loves animals. I very much appreciated the text updates with pictures throughout the day. Graduation day was so enjoyable thanks to this experience on Rover. Thank you again, Keily, puppy Sam had a blast!”
About: I have always owned/ cared for pets my entire life, which makes 25 years of caring for pets. I went to SUNY Alfred State College of technology, where I received my associates degree in veterinary technology, as well as a bachelors degree in technology management Fall of 2021. I started off volunteering at animal shelters in the fall of 2016. I worked as a Kennel assistant throughout the years of 2016 to 2020. I worked as a Veterinary Assistant from 2020 to 2023. I am currently a Veterinary Technician (Emergency animal nurse) at Veterinary Emergency Group. I have animal training, grooming, and Veterinary medical experience. I work a full time job at Veterinary Emergency Group three days a week. 12 hour shifts. I can also bring pets to work with me as well. So I am available all days out of the week. I do not have a fenced in yard, but there is a hiking trail around the corner from my home where I walk my own dogs daily. Pets will never be put in a crate. (Unless you prefer for them to be crated) They are welcomed to walk around my house, on the couch, and in my bed. I feed my dogs twice a day and they get walked 3-4 times a day. Whenever I have to run errands they stay at home with pee pee pads located around the house.
About: Dogs have been my whole heart for as long as I can remember. I started walking and babysitting pups when I was 13, and I’ve never stopped. Over the years I’ve grown up with and cared for Labs, an English Bulldog, a Jack Russell, a Cocker Spaniel, a Pit Bull mix, a Cattle Dog, a Great Dane, and a French Bulldog, so big, small, sleepy, or full of zoomies, I adore them all. My newest family member is a sweet Cavalier King Charles who loves making new dog friends, so your pup will have a gentle buddy to play with (or snuggle with, if that’s more their style). What your dog can expect with me: A cozy home in West Nyack with a fenced-in yard and a separate downstairs space to relax A crate already set up if your dog feels safest with one Lots of attention. I work from home part-time, so I’m around and my schedule is flexible with a little notice Comfortable, careful medication care, including injections Plenty of photos and videos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing When your dog stays with me, they’re treated like family. I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away, knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and loved. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to meet your pup! 💛 It’s pretty much my hobby! I’ve been fostering this year, I watch, all of my friends animals and more. Always go out every few hours. Never left alone long. I treat all dogs like they’re my own, take them out every few hours or for walks, more if necessary, they have full access to the bed, couch, can use a crate if they like that more. Happy to adhere to any guidelines.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach to each pet’s needs. I take the time to get to know your pet’s routine, preferences, and quirks, ensuring they feel at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s providing extra cuddles, managing special diets, or offering daily updates with photos and videos, I treat your pet like my family and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve. Plus, I’m available for last-minute bookings and flexible with scheduling to accommodate your needs. During the week, I focus on my other commitments, but in the evenings and on weekends, I’m fully available to give your pet the care, love, and attention they deserve. Whether it’s evening walks, playtime, or weekend cuddles, I make sure to adjust my schedule to provide personalized care and peace of mind while you’re busy or away. Since I’m not able to bring pets into my home, I focus on providing top-notch care in the comfort of your pet’s familiar environment—your home. I make sure your pet feels safe and secure in their own space, maintaining their usual routine and surroundings. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat your home as my own and provide attentive care that keeps your pet happy and healthy. Plus, I ensure regular communication with updates, photos, or videos to keep you connected while you’re away.
“Brendan was wonderful with Popeye, who has severe anxiety and barked nonstop when he first met him. Brendan was patient and before long, had Popeye napping with him and playing with his tennis ball. Brendan was super responsive, attentive to my concerns, and took excellent care of my dog and my home. I would definitely book with him again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Garnerville
Rai is a great, very patient, pet sitter! She watched our two senior dogs (and our rabbit) in our home for a week. One of the dogs is a rescue and takes a very long time to warm up to new people. Rai was extremely patient with her despite the incessant barking!
Flower is THE pet sitter you are looking for! I have a new rescue who doesn't usually even let anyone in the house. I was very apprehensive about trying to get a way for a few days. Flower knew just how to get him to trust her when we did a meet and greet. I was shocked! When she arrived for her stay with him, he greeted her like a long lost friend. Flower is very conscientious. She followed my ridiculously detailed instructions precisely; asked thoughtful questions and is a pleasure to work with. I returned to a very happy pup and a home the way I left it. I couldn't recommend her more highly. Treat yourself (and your pet) to a carefree vacation.

The average cost of House Sitting in Garnerville is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $53 and $61 per night.

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 Garnerville 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 Garnerville 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 Garnerville 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
