“Maria H. provide safe and consistent care for our 12 year schnauzer mix in our home for a week. She stayed with our dog overnight and ensured she had a fun time while we were away. We returned to a happy, calm dog and a tidy home. Thank you Maria. We will hire you again!”

“Andrea was great with our anxious French bulldog. She went above and beyond watering the gardens and caring for the animals. She was communicative and sent pics of our pup. We will absolutely hire her again to house and pet sit! Highly recommend.”

“Kristin was terrific. We needed someone to stay at our house to pet sit my daughter and her husband's dog while we vacationed with them. Their dog is a very sweet but sometimes precocious, energetic 3 year old golden retriever. Kristin did a great job! She's very friendly, experienced and caring. Most importantly she took good care of Shea, but the house as well. I definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. Neighbors, friends, and family regularly rely on me to walk their dogs — whether it’s daily routines or helping while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and safety they need on every walk. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time and energy to give pets the attention, love, and care they deserve. Since I focus on dog walking, I always follow the pet owner’s leash, route, and care instructions. I ensure each dog feels safe and gets plenty of movement and attention during our walk.
“Kristine was truly great. She dog/house sat for over a week and kept us informed of our pup’s doings everyday (with pictures). Our home was just as we left it. We couldn’t have asked for more and will be hiring Kristine again for our next trip.”

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and horses. Through my involvement in 4-H, where I served as president of my club, I developed strong animal care skills, leadership experience, and a deep appreciation for responsible pet ownership. Growing up, I regularly helped care for family pets and spent time dog walking for neighbors. During high school and college, I provided drop-in visits for pets, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I'm currently a proud dog mom to my hound mix, Choco, which keeps me active and helps me stay in tune with dogs' individual needs and personalities. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with a variety of animals, my reliability, and my genuine love for pets. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I'll provide attentive care and treat them like part of my own family. Beginning this fall, I'll be a law student, but my schedule still allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I have excellent availability on weekends and am generally available in the late afternoons and evenings on weekdays. I also expect to have availability for early morning visits before class and occasional drop-in visits between classes, depending on my daily schedule. Because my class schedule varies, I'm happy to communicate and work with pet parents to find times that fit their needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I'll do my best to provide flexible, dependable care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their environment. As the owner of an anxious dog, Choco, I know that every pet has different needs and that changes in routine can sometimes be stressful. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and routines so I can provide care that helps them feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I pay close attention to safety by ensuring doors, gates, and leashes are secure and by keeping a watchful eye on pets during walks and outdoor time. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience for every pet by being patient, attentive, and respectful of their boundaries. Whether a pet is energetic and social or shy and anxious, I'll provide compassionate care and treat them as if they were my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Goldens Bridge
Laura stayed in my home and cared for my dog for 2-1/2 weeks while I was traveling. She took Dinah for long walks in the woods and they seemed to have a great time together. I was relaxed knowing that my dog and my home were in Laura’s responsible hands. She’s the best!

The average cost of House Sitting in Goldens Bridge is $100 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $82 and $118 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.

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 Goldens Bridge 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 Goldens Bridge 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 Goldens Bridge 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.

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.

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.
