“We had a great experience with Corinne! She was kind, attentive, and very communicative throughout the entire time. We felt completely comfortable leaving Macey in her care, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and we would absolutely trust her with Macey again in the future.”
“Jen was amazing!!! We have never used a dog sitter that wasn’t a member of our family, so we were skeptical about using someone we didn’t know. But she really put our minds at ease. She was willing to come to our house a couple of times to meet us, meet Cooper, and get the lay of the land. While on our vacation, she sent us constant updates and photos of how Cooper was doing. He did fantastic being home for an extended time with someone he didn’t know well. Thank you so much for all your help, and well e definitely be calling you again!”
About: I’ve taken care of kittens, Cats, Puppies, Dogs, even chickens. I have done it all. I am very reliable when it comes to dog walking, because I walk my dog every day. I have a French bulldog myself, his expertise, health, and happiness is one of my main priorities. I love animals and have been loving them ever since I was a little girl. I have a huge heart when it comes to them, they are the best for comfort, and deserve to be loved by everyone. They are just the most precious little babies ever! 🫶 I am mostly free in the mornings and in the afternoons. When ever I have the time I am always on a walk with my dog or at the park with him trying to get him the exercise he needs. Cause he is a little big for his breed and needs the exercise and and to be out of the house. As soon as I wake up I take my dog out for a walk. Then I fill up his bowl with food and his other with water. Then in the afternoon when I get done school I’ll take him out again. And lastly at night I take him out for the third time. Give him food and water. He is my #1 priority as always (: I try and play with him as much as I can during the day, but I’m a busy girl so I do my best!
“Salem was an amazing choice! It was my first time having someone stay in the house to care for my pets. But he put me completely at ease. Took such good care of the babies. We have pretty specific care instructions, and he followed them to a T. He spent so much time with them. He was very communicative. He left the house immaculate. I would 10/10 use him again. If you're looking for a trustworthy amazing sitter for your pets! Salem is your person!”
“Taylor did a great job house sitting while we were on vacation. She took great care of our home, two dogs & cat. She was very responsive & sent us pictures of our boys while we were gone. I would definitely request her again in the future.”
“Abigail is great with our dog (also named Abigail). Our dog is a friendly girl, but she takes a while to warm up to people. Abigail took the time with her to build trust. Abby quickly warmed to her. We felt very comfortable leaving her in Abigail's care. She is great!”
“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He watched our pups in our home and I felt safe and stress free. My dogs were in such great care. They loved him... maybe a little too much! I would definitely book with him again.”
“Bri is wonderful with our 3 pets! Lots of updates and photos which is very appreciated while we are away. Great communication! We feel comfortable leaving our pets with her knowing she’s paying all her attention to them and basically spoiling them more than we would!”
“Michael was so amazing with our dog & cat. He sent us lots of pictures of our fur babies while we were away, took our dog on walks, for car rides & administered her daily medication. Michael was so flexible & understanding of my obsessive dog mom requests. We are so grateful to have had his help & will absolutely be having him sit for us again!”
“Autumn did a great job with Mack & Aries while I was traveling on a work trip. They were both comfortable with her and I will not hesitate to use Autumn again for future house sitting needs.”
About: For the past seven years, I had the privilege of sharing my life with my dog, Agatha, whom I adopted when she was around seven years old. She recently passed away at an estimated 14 years old after battling cancer. Caring for Agatha, especially during the last few months of her life, taught me patience, compassion, and how to meet a dog exactly where they are. As she got older, she needed more hands-on support. Whether it was helping her stand, carrying her when her body wouldn't cooperate (all 55 pounds of her!), or hand-feeding her because that's how she was most comfortable, I learned that every dog has unique needs and deserves care that respects their personality. Agatha was fiercely independent, so I always tried to give her as much dignity and choice as possible while making sure she felt safe and loved. While I'm not ready to adopt another dog just yet, I truly miss having one in my life. That's what brought me to Rover. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I live in an apartment with easy access to outdoor walking paths, sidewalks, and a nearby dog park, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and opportunities to explore. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I own a local fitness studio, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Most weekdays, I'm available between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, or spending quality time with pets. My mornings typically begin around 8:00 a.m., and I'm at my studio from approximately 9:00–11:00 a.m. and again from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Because I have flexibility throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys an active walk, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you're away. I know that every pet is different, so my first priority is getting to know your dog's routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay or visit. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, or little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I live in an apartment with easy access to sidewalks, green space, and a nearby dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing (only with your permission). If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
“If you need a house/dog sitter, look no further! Lauren was absolutely awesome. We have a 100lb Doberman who is very sweet but he is high energy and can be a lot to handle for people not used to large high energy dogs. Lauren took care of him with no issues at all while staying at our house for 5 nights. She gave him regular walks and spent a ton of time with him. She also was great at sending pictures and updates. Finally, she took great care of our house and respected our rules. She was great all around!”
About: I’ve had experience with all levels of pets. From giving medicine to training obedience and instilling confidence. I’ve cared for and owned breeds from chihuahuas to pitbulls. I have a genuine knowledge for doggy language and a vibe with kitties. Let me be your pets new best friend and ease both pet and human anxiety ☺️ Im currently working part time seasonally and will be free to play, walk or stay with your furry friend most days of the week. If you like my bio we can discuss more specifically what it looks like for me to stay with your pet! I’m an active and playful being that would love to walk your dog or take them on adventures in the car. I am good with daily big walks or runs inside a fenced yard. I love to train basic obedience like sit stay and heel. Crate trained?-no problem! Free roaming with boundaries- again, no problem!
“Cole was punctual, communicative and responsive. The animals looked happy and well taken care of when we returned! Will be reaching out again next time we need someone to watch them!”
“Natalie was great with our pup Finn. He ended up having a double ear infection and Natalie had no problem with administering his ear drops. She was super responsive and sent lots of pictures. Highly recommend Natalie and we have already booked her again!”
“We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! She was a wonderful option for us since we didn’t want to board our two dogs and had never left our youngest before. She was caring, dependable, and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. It made our first time leaving Winston so much easier knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her and will absolutely use her”
“Casie stayed at our house for a week when we were out of town. She did a great job! Since this was my first time using Rover, Casie lead the way & did a great job! She came ahead of our reservation for a meet & greet which was a great idea! Casie sent pictures through the week. We loved being able to see our pets while we were away! The entire experience was so smooth & easy. Thanks to Casie for taking care of our pets!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve also had the privilege of working at a doggy daycare/boarding business for several summers, where I absolutely loved caring for clients’ pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. If you have concerns about a senior dog, don’t worry—I’m very comfortable following specific schedules, administering routines, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether your dog needs lots of playtime or a calm, gentle companion, I’m happy to provide a safe and comfortable experience while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!!! I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m typically available Monday through Friday at any time, and I can accommodate a variety of routines and needs. While I prefer weekdays, I may be able to help on weekends with advance notice I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In your home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walk routines, or any specific care your pet needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I keep a clean and secure environment, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are always properly handled. During walks, I stay alert and avoid unsafe situations to keep your pet protected.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gibsonia
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!
I highly recommend Heidi! She was flexible, prompt and took such good care of my baby girl. She send me picture updates everyday. I’m very selective in who I allow to take care of my very anxious 7 year old Great Dane, Tilly. Tilly was relaxed when I came home and interacted well with Heidi.

FAQs for House Sitting - Gibsonia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gibsonia on Rover is $55.5 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 1,399 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 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 Gibsonia. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
