“Megan was truly amazing taking care of our pets. She followed all of our pet care instructions which included feeding a picky dog and a cat who needs medication daily. Without me having to ask, she sent constant updates (and pics) throughout the day which made me feel at ease being so far away on vacation. She is also very respectful of the home she stays in. We would 100% hire her again on our next trip.”
“Jaclyn was amazing and just what we were looking for in someone to watch our pups! We are new to the area and looking for a dog sitter has been tough, but Jaclyn was quick to respond, very experienced and super responsible with our dogs and house. We will definitely book again!”
“Whitney was so great! When my flight was delayed by 10 hours she was so kind and extremely helpful with staying longer with my dog. She’s the best!”
“I felt confident in choosing Nicole to housesit for us. She was professional and reliable. She showed up on time, sent photos and updates and was quick to respond. She took good care of our 3 pets and our home. We will definitely seek Nicole’s services again in the future.”
About: When my family adopted our first dog, Jennie, a German Shepard mix, I had made it a priority to walk her almost everyday and play with her so she was never bored. I also helped train her when she was a puppy, teaching her how to sit and how to give her paw. I also took care of her when she became older, helping her down stairs and cooking her healthy treats like salmon and chicken. My family has since had two different foster dogs (American bully and Pitbull) that I love to spend time and go on walks with. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pets! I will always keep a vigilant eye on your pet and do my best to make them as happy as possible. I spend a lot of time outside in my fenced yard with my dog, so I will be sure to give your dog the same amount of attention.
“Ashley was amazing! Kept us updated all the time, took some amazing pictures of Gunner and wasn’t afraid of the challenge to take care of our anxious boy!! We felt very comfortable leaving and knowing our pets were going to be cared for and loved!!”
“Kayleigh is without a doubt the best dog / house sitter we have ever had. Our dog Emma had a great time with Kayleigh and we returned to our home just as we left it. Kayleigh took lots of photos and kept us informed the entire time we were away, which eased any concerns we may have had (since this was the first time Kayleigh watched Emma). While this was the first time Kayleigh watched Emma, it certainly won't be the last. Thank you Kayleigh.”
“Sierra was wonderful with both of our dogs and staying at our house to make sure the dogs were well cared for. She even helped us out preparing our house for an open house the weekend she was here and taking both dogs out for the couple hours the house was showing . Thank you so much Sierra for all of your help.”
“Gabrielle always takes excellent care of our cat and dog. She was able to help us out and watch them quickly when we had a family emergency pop up. I felt rest assured knowing they were in great hands!”
“I have a fearful reactive chihuahua and Bri did so great with him! She came over multiple times before our booking to meet with him and make sure he was comfortable. She sent me very detailed breakdowns multiple times a day as well as photos and videos. She took care of our house as well and helped our dog when he got sick in the house a few times. I always feel bad leaving my dog behind but knowing she was giving him a lot of attention, love and care while we were gone made a huge difference!”
“Morgan was an amazing pet sitter and took great care of our cat while we were away. We are both vets and know that we can definitely be “extra” when it comes to being pet parents, but Morgan was very accommodating and made us feel very comfortable during the experience. She sent us update pictures and did well with communication over the whole trip. Henri seemed to really like Morgan too. He can sometimes be a little slow to warm up to people, but he appeared to warm up to Morgan quickly and liked to hang out with her. Since he is a cat with previous FLUTD signs (stress-related urinary issues), we were nervous about this experience, but Morgan did a great job being patient with Henri and making him comfortable and happy. We would definitely recommend Morgan to anyone needing a pet sitter and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Andrea was very kind and communicative throughout the visit. She arrived on time for the meet and greet and was gentle and patient with my puppy during an important adjustment period. I appreciated her professionalism, flexibility, and willingness to provide updates while I was away. Thank you again for your help and care with Dolly!”
About: Pets have been around for my entire life! Ever since I could remember, i’ve been caring for all types of pets! Between my childhood dogs, my turtle, and my friends and families pets, it has become more than just a hobby, pet care is one of my genuine passions!!! I’m currently in between jobs so I will have all the time in the world to play with some puppers!!! I’m very mobile, so i’d be able to come on weekdays and weekends! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. At my home, I provide a clean and pet-friendly environment, fresh water, regular feeding on schedule, daily exercise, and plenty of playtime or snuggles depending on each pet’s personality. I also make sure they have a cozy space to rest and follow any special instructions such as medications or dietary needs. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. This may include feeding, walking, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water, and giving attention and affection. I’m also mindful of home security, like locking up properly and bringing in mail if requested. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free until their owner returns.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and often stay with my family and friends dogs when they travel. I am patient, kind, and dependable. Your pets will be well taken care of so you can relax while away from home. Working full time but available to house sit or do drop ins depending on the day. My work schedule changes often to reach out to discuss availability. Sorry, I am not currently taking pets into my home. I am currently only available for drop ins and house sitting in your home. Thank you
“Patrick was nothing short of amazing when taking care of our pups while we were out of town. He sent frequent pictures and videos and his communication was wonderful. We will definitely book with him again.”
“Troy and Shalah are true animal lovers and are so thoughtful to the needs of the fur baby parents as well! They recently watched my baby Stumpy and kept me updated with texts and so many pictures! I had my first dog sitter cancel and they were so responsive when I reached out to them! I am happy it worked out this way as they are wonderful! Don't hesitate to book them! You won't be disappointed”
About: I have experience with all types of animals from cats, dogs, birds, and even chinchillas. Walking them is a pleasure and also makes me happy since they also get some time out of the house. I’m available to walk in the mornings to get that early rise as well as in the afternoons! It’s nice to get to walk outside and get some sunshine but also chill if needed. For my pets on my home as well as my clients I make sure they’re stimulated enough as well as have all the care they need.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hainesport is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hainesport
Allie was truly lovely. This was our first time using a sitter. Parker has a lot of separation anxiety so I wasn't sure how it would go. She took the time to come do a meet and greet ahead of time. She made him feel comfortable, asked questions and spent time calmly cuddling him so he could get used to her while we were all together. She was communicative and sent me photo updates. It was clear Parker felt safe with her and that helped put me ease. I am so grateful to know we have someone we cen trust him with now.
What a great experience! Megan was absolutely amazing with our Tommy! He is a senior dog so we were a little apprehensive leaving him. We couldn’t be more happy Tommy was very comfortable and Megan took great care of him! Dog whisper for sure!! Felt comfortable having her stay at our home as well!!
Andrea was very kind and communicative throughout the visit. She arrived on time for the meet and greet and was gentle and patient with my puppy during an important adjustment period. I appreciated her professionalism, flexibility, and willingness to provide updates while I was away. Thank you again for your help and care with Dolly!
Natalie watched our dog Ruby over the holidays and was amazing! Ruby got lots of walks and love and Natalie kept us updated with photos and messages everyday. We were so grateful to find her and felt peace of mind while we were on vacation. Looking forward to having her sit for us again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hainesport
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hainesport on Rover is $41.33 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,354 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hainesport. 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 Hainesport 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 Hainesport 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 Hainesport 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 Hainesport. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
