“This was our 2nd time having Air watch our 2 small dogs in our home. Once again, it went amazing. The dogs were clearly loved on and well taken cared while we were away. The regular updates gave us peace of mind and helped us relax on vacation knowing our pups were happy and relaxed with Air watching them. I'm a protective dog mom and I feel very safe having Air watch my dogs. I highly recommend her services.”
“Maria was wonderful with our two boys! Right away we could tell they would be comfortable with her and we were right. We were hesitate to leave our dogs and go out of town but Maria was great with giving us updates on how they were doing along with sending us pictures. She treated them as if they were her own. She is very loving and gave them both tons of attention. I am so happy with everything she did while taking care of our babies, Maria is amazing!”
About: I know what it’s like to be an anxious mom to a furbaby and wonder if your pet sitter will show up the way you need them to. I have had four dogs since the age of 12 and love them more than anything else! I also had 3 cats when I was younger :) I will do everything in my power to show your babies love and give them top rated care! I currently have open availability and pet sitting is my sole job. I am able to care for senior pets and provide pills as well. :) reach out with any questions! I just moved here from Chicago and right now I’m just babysitting so I haven’t a lot of flexibility and time to care for your baby! I do not offer services at my home at this time but look forward to working with your pets and providing them with the highest level of care and adhering to all routines
“Marissa did an amazing job! We adopted a puppy w/ severe trauma background who is afraid of everyone, who’d never been left alone w/ anyone before. He’s never let anyone near him before. Marisa’s patience and skill w dogs with a traumatic past enabled her to break through his fears and by the end of the day my sweet dog was cuddling with her! It was truly amazing. I highly recommend Marissa.”
About: I recently cared for a new born American Pit Bull Terrier, and 16 year old black American shorthair cat. The experience/care for both animals has helped me understand and appreciate a pet owners everyday task. There is so much sacrifice, dedication, and love that animals need on a daily basis. I would like to alleviate the daily stress that some pet owners may encounter while trying to juggle life, work, and caring for their animals. I have recently been laid off due to covid-19 pandemic. I now have an open schedule, please send me all your fur request. I cant wait to meet them! I care for animals in the same way I care for humans. Animals feel and think in similar ways that we do. Knowing and understanding a animals personality will only make my care for them more enjoyable.

“This was our first time using an in-home dog sitter after losing our previous dog unexpectedly at a boarding facility, so we were understandably very hesitant. From the moment we met Vickie, she immediately put us at ease and gave us the confidence to leave our new pup at home while we were away. Vickie went above and beyond by visiting a few times before our trip to help our pup feel comfortable with her in our home. While we were gone, she kept us updated with daily photos, which meant so much to us, and she even took the time to water our garden. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a house in perfect condition. We’re so grateful for the care and attention Vickie provided and would absolutely love to work with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

“Lili was wonderful with our boys, Ozzy & Luke. She communicated with us throughout the stay. She sent updates and photos of our pups, which we really enjoyed. She treated the pups and our home with lots of respect. We’re looking forward to her spending more time with our pups in the future. Lili is great, your fur babies will warm up to her immediately. 💛”
“Kerrie is awesome! She takes such good care of our boys - and they are BIG (two Newfoundland dogs). I would recommend her to anyone, however, once you have her in your home, I might not get to as often because she will be booked up! I recommend Kerrie 100% and believe our dogs are safe and in good hands with her.”
“Kaelyn was an absolute professional. Took an 8 day trip to the east coast and I was anxiety ridden about dog care. Kaelyn came in clutch. She eased my anxiety and the dogs fell in love with her. She was prompt and diligent. Not only were the dogs taken very well care of, she even took out the trash on trash day. I can’t rave enough about her and we will definitely rebooked Kaelyn in the future.”

About: Hi, my name is Gianna, i’m 18 years old. I have much experience with dogs, my family owns many dogs, one of each size. I can promise your animals will be safe with me, i also get along very well with cats, i have one of my own. I’ve understood that cats take very long to get used to and comfortable around new people and i am patient enough for that. Every morning before work, i let my aunts 4 dogs outside. i fill their food and water bowls as i take them out around 9 am. i bring in my aunts Argentinian dogo’s food bowl at 5pm (very big dog btw LOL) and throw in extra boiled chicken that they have made for him already. I try to help as much as i can with them. I care for pets by ensuring their physical, emotional, and social needs are met, whether in my own home or a client’s. This includes feeding them the right diet, providing fresh water, and offering daily exercise through walks or play. I also monitor their health for any signs of discomfort. I always make sure I create a safe, comfortable environment for my clients pet it is a top priority. I also communicate closely with pet owners to ensure all specific care instructions are followed and address any concerns promptly.
About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.

FAQs for House Sitting - Good Hope
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,063 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Good Hope. 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 Good Hope 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 Good Hope 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Good Hope 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.
