“Megan was absolutely fantastic while staying in my home caring for Bennie. She went above and beyond to ensure Bennie was comfortable and happy. Great communication with me and overall an extremely kind and restful person towards my home, my baby 🐶 and myself. I can’t say enough great things about Megan!”
“Rachel was a wonderful in-home dog sitter. In addition to being a perfect house guest, she was so kind and caring to my senior pup. She was communicative and left everything in perfect order. Ziggy says he would highly recommend her and would give her 6 stars if he could!”
“Taylor did a great job watching our two dogs, Rocky and Pickle. They were happy and healthy when we got home. She communicated well with us and sent us lots of updates/pictures. She also left our house clean and tidy when she left.”
“Brianna watched my dog and cat while I was away for a few days and she was great. I cannot say enough good things about her. She sent lots of updates and pictures. And my house was perfectly clean when I returned home. I highly recommend her if you need someone to stay at your house to watch your pets.”
“Truly the best and most caring sitting we’ve had from rover (and we have had a lot of great sitters from rover too!) always sent pictures and detailed updates that made us feel so at ease.”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for about 3 years now and I’ve been walking pets for my whole life! I’ve had experience walking big dogs, around 90lbs, so you don’t need to worry - I also do crossfit so I can handle bigger dogs! I love pets and would love to help out when needed! I am available anytime on the weekend and during the evening time on weekdays. I work a 9-5 so if need be I can also do an early morning call! I stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible—walk times, feeding schedule, playtime, cuddles, and even those weird little rituals they insist on (yes, I’ll fluff their bed exactly how they like it). I make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar space and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you don’t miss a tail wag.
About: I have watched dogs before and I only watch small breeds who are fixed already. Large breeds I dnt watch . So contact accordingly please. I can watch 3 times a week right now as per my schedule and only small breeds who are fixed already and no dogs with prior bitting or attacking experience I have a backyard and a mini schnauzer to give your fur baby company and he gets along with kids and other dogs very well
“I can’t say enough good things about Teresa. We wanted someone to stay in our house and dog sit our rescue dog while we were on vacation. From the first moment we met Teresa we had confidence that she was the right person. Teresa arrived for our meet and greet with a thorough questionnaire that proved her earnestness to provide quality care for our dog and our house. The entire time we were away, she sent videos and photos that gave us peace knowing our dog was in good hands. We returned home to a happy dog and a tidy house. I highly recommend Teresa. Your pet will love her and you will too.”
“Briauna was wonderful! She stayed with both our dogs for the weekend. She sent pictures and kept us informed all weekend about the dogs! Will definitely rebook next time!”
“Lyla did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. My dog is itty and needed lots of out door breaks and play. Lyla was able to accommodate to my puppy’s many puppy needs. I would absolutely use Lyla’s services again and would recommend her to anyone who needs support caring for their pet.”
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! We needed a cat sitter for 4 days while me and my wife we're out of town and couldn't have been happier choosing Stephanie to look after her. We got pictures texted to us everyday and received updates throughout the day. It gave us such piece of mind knowing that someone we trusted and who genuinely enjoys being around animals was looking after her. Next time we are out of town we will definitely reach out to Stephanie to schedule another session with her!!”
“Ja’Vae was fantastic! She stayed at our house while we were away for a week and watched our dog and cat. She was super communicative, was so patient with our nervous dog, and really respectful of our home. She left everything so tidy. Would definitely book again!”
About: I have tons of experience with larger and smaller dogs! My parents have a 6 year old black lab that I watch regularly when they go out of town, and I watch my friend’s shorkie regularly as well! I would love to get to know your furry best friends! I am currently working part-time, so I have more time on my hands to spend with your cute pets! I am happy to work my schedule with yours to find the best arrangement! I am willing to follow any routine necessary to keep your animals comfortable! Whether that’s special food requirements or just a cuddle before they go to bed!
About: I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I had a Wheaten Terroir that I loved dearly, I am able to walk your dog in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I am willing to give baths, medication, or any thing else you may need. I am willing to work around my schedule to fit what you need. I have a very flexible schedule. I have five years experience watching dogs. I am willing to take your dog to the local park or walking trail and exercise there. I love dogs who sit up on the couch and cuddle with you. I can't wait to start! I currently work from home so I am flexible around your schedule. Please let me know how I can help assist on how I can help ease the stay. I have a fenced in yard with two sweet pups that love to play, I am able to crate my dogs or your dogs if needed.
“Gretchen was the most fantastic sitter I could have ever asked for. We learned we needed coverage last minute, and that was no problem for Gretchen. She set up a meet and greet to learn the dogs habits and needs and make sure the chemistry was on point. Then she had them Covered for the whole weekend. Sending regular updates and pictures. We loved the pup-date pictures and the “day in the life” pictures we got! She also took care of our shakey baby pup through a thunderstorm. 10/10 will 100000% be rebooking Gretchen when we need help!”
“Lisa has worked for us twice so far, and both times she's been so great! She always sends photos of the dogs, and they obviously love having her there. She feeds them, plays with them, and basically allows them to live their best life at home. We're so grateful to have an option outside of a kennel!”

We are so appreciative of James! We highly recommend him. We requested him at a time we needed someone to care for our little young puppy and James connected with our pup immediately, and keep us updated! We were very pleased with him and would 100% book with him again!
Corinne is awesome!!! Couldn’t say enough good things about her . She is wonderful with my Bella and would be great with your fur baby as well. She is very responsible, attentive to your needs in your pet needs, as well and she communicates greatly. As a Rover employee as well I highly recommend her. She makes going away easy and you don’t have to worry that your pet is being well taken care of and loved. Thank you so much for watching Bella, I know she had a great time with you and looks forward to the next time she will see you.
Ava was so great and took such good care of our pup! She was very communicative, shared pictures and kept us updated. We felt comfortable with Ava staying in our home, and that our pup would be well looked after. We'll definitely look to Ava for future stays and sitting! Thank you Ava!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Gibsonia is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $47 and $85 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 1,389 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gibsonia. 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 Gibsonia 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 Gibsonia 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 Gibsonia 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.
