“Hadija is the best! We are so grateful for her thoughtful and attentive care for our dog. She is such a great communicator, sharing frequent updates and adorable photos. We especially appreciated her kindness and support she gave to our dog when they had an upset stomach for a few days. Hadija helped to keep our dog comfortable and to figure out ways to help her feel better. We highly recommend Hadija for housesitting! We know our dog has a strong connection with her and we are grateful to know she is in such good hands while we are away.”
“We had such a great experience with Kayla. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety, but Kayla did such a great job to calm his nerves. She was very patient with him and went out of her way to do a meet and greet prior to the appointment. He had such a good time! Highly recommend.”
“Shanette provided regular updates on Celia and took care of her like she was her own! She was also very flexible with our schedule! Definitely will be booking Shanette in the future again. 10/10!”
“Mike was so great! He came in clutch last minute, was communicative and I can tell our girls were well taken care of! We would definitely book with him again, and we highly recommend him!”
“Kim was a lifesaver! We needed a sitter last minute for our pups as we were traveling to Italy. She wrote down notes for each of the puppies during the house visit and was confident the care she would provide them. She was attentive to their and our needs. She kept us informed throughout our trip and was able to understand their personalities. The pups gravitated towards her and felt comfortable. I would definitely reach out to her again!”
“Mary Ann was very professional, a great communicator and very detail oriented! She took notes, was kind and considerate, and we felt our dog and cat were in extremely good hands and very safe with her, especially since my pup has allergies and can be a bit manipulative at times! Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds since childhood. family, friends trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and give loving, reliable care to every pet. During the week I work 9–5, but I’m available on weekends and some evenings. I enjoy spending that time walking, playing, and caring for pets. In your home, I care for pets as if they were mine. feeding, walking, and playing with them. I respect your space and keep everything tidy
“Jake is wonderful. We went on a trip for a week and he stayed with our older dogs. We got pictures and updates from Jake, he took them on walks and outside. The dogs are happy and the house was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jake. We never leave our dogs with anyone so this was a big deal and we can’t thank Jake enough for making this a great experience.”
About: I absolutely adore spending time with furry friends. Dogs are such important companions in our lives, bringing us joy and unconditional love. Their presence truly uplifts our spirits and brings so much happiness. I feel incredibly lucky to have had dogs by my side since I was a young girl. Incorporating pet care into our daily or weekly routine is essential to ensuring that our furry friends are healthy and happy. This can involve setting aside time each day for feeding, playing, and walking or exercising with them. It's important to remember that pets rely on us for their care and attention, so taking the time to prioritize their needs can strengthen the bond between us and our furry friends. Spending time with our furry friends, taking them for walks, or engaging them in other activities they enjoy can be a source of joy and fulfillment for them and us.
“I’ve booked her several times and my dog LOVES her. 10/10 recommend. She is punctual and she cared for my dogs very good. Love that she is also bilingual as I’m trying to teach my dog to be bilingual, haha. Muchísimas gracias.”
“Diana took great care of our two labs, Grace and Beau, while we were away for an overnight trip. She was attentive to their routine and kept us well-informed through messages and pictures. We are extremely satisfied with Diana’s work and won’t hesitate to call on her again for future dog care. Highly recommend her for your consideration.”
“Travian took great care of our dog and cat while we were away for the weekend. It was clear they both got a lot of attention and he also left the house spotless. Would definitely ask Travian to housesit again!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.
About: Having 8 years' old Lab and 1 years' old cat. Love growing up with them together. Welcome my friends! Looking forward to meeting you all! Part time, only specific time fit schedule. Please see the time spot provided. Please reserve 7 days ahead and cancel 7 days in advance if needed. Faced yard provide security. Beautiful and clean space, a dog and a cat can play with your pet. Friendly, quiet and calm pet preferred. Keep us both safe is the first priority.
About: I promise that my goal first and foremost is the health and care of your pet. I love all animals and grew up with both cats and dogs! Currently I have a 4 year old cat named Suki. She loves to play and nap together. I am extremely responsible and will give your pet all the care he/she needs and send you photo updates (it’s one of my favorite things to do when I’m pet sitting). I’ll treat your pet as though they were my own. I'm looking forward to working with you! I am currently a student at Rutgers Physician Associate Program. Some days I’m in school from 9am-4pm but we also have virtual days and days off for studying for exams. I’m an early riser so you can rely on me to take care of your pet bright and early and then head back to them in the afternoon for more play time and exercise. My weekends are always free so pet care on the weekends fits perfectly into my routine. I have a guest bedroom available to keep your fur baby comfortable in one section of the house or they can also use the entire house if they feel comfortable in their environment! I do have my pet cat Suki who lives with me but she does very well with dogs and we can keep her separate from other cats to introduce them slowly or just keep them separate the entire time they’re here. I’d be happy to sleep in the guest bedroom with your pet as well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gillette
Maria did an excellent job taking care of Petey while we were away. This was our first time traveling without Petey. Maria made us feel totally comfortable by keeping Petey in his routine and sending us frequent updates and pictures. Would not hesitate to use Maria again.
Jesse took great care of our dog, Sunny, while we were away. He sent us photos and reassuring messages, which really put us at ease. Although he mentioned he recently started working as a dog sitter, he was clearly very experienced and confident with dogs. We felt Sunny was in very good hands and would absolutely ask him again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Gillette is $89 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $68 and $105 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 November 2026, there are 17,925 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gillette. 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 Gillette 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 Gillette 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 Gillette 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
