“Raeann watched our GSD for us while we were on vacation and we couldn’t have asked for someone better to watch our pup! Throughout the whole process she did an excellent job communicating, asking questions, and easing our mind. She sent daily updates and pictures while we were gone, which we really appreciated! Piper loved her too and they had a great time together. I would definitely recommend Raeann for dog walking, pet sitting, etc!”

About: My partner and I both love hanging out and taking care of people’s pets, so we’ve decided to do it together. We both grew up with dogs and cats respectively, and overall, just love animals. We’d be more than happy to check in on your per, take them for a walk and make sure that they don’t feel alone while you have to be out. We have three cats of our own; one of them has allergies that we perform shots on her for. If your pet has such needs, we have experience in that department! I work from home two weeks of the month currently and will be expecting to be fully home by February. During those weeks, I can come anytime of day but the other two weeks, I’ll be available Thursday-Sunday. I’ll confirm that your pet is healthy and ensure that they’re comfortable with my presence / actions. I’ll also follow all instructions provided to me and share updates after each visit.

About: All my friends always joked that my house was the zoo. Among fish, hamsters, birds and bunnies we always have had dogs as part of that zoo. I seem to have a natural kinship with animals and seem to be making friends with the dog at the party before the host. But, I can't imagine life any other way. Assisting with rescue transports has also given me experience in handling scared and skittish animals. It is always funny when walking a dog you don't know the owner's name but identify them as "Jack's Mom" I can't wait to care for your dog as my own. I also look forward to helping your pet feel loved and have some extra attention during this chaotic thing we call life. My schedule varies depending on time of year. Taking care of pets is a happy getaway from everyday life. I like to think they bring me more joy but I see how excited they are when I arrive <3 It all depends on the pet's needs and the client's requests too. I communicate my schedule and the pets schedule all the time when needed.

About: I have been pet sitting for 7 years since my undergraduate. I have taken care of many pets ranging from puppies, kittens, seniors, and up to three pets at one time. I am the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and coworkers because I’m always eager to meet and care for a new friend :) I work full time until 3:30 pm, but I would be eager to start pet sitting immediately after! I am not permitted to have pets in my new apartment, but am still looking to spend time with some friends in my evenings! My priority is making sure your fur baby is comfortable, and I will accommodate and adjust accordingly. I am comfortable crating pets if needed and creating a specialized environment in your home.

She was compassionate and judging from the many pictures she sent during the sit, he loved hanging out with her too!”

About: I've loved dogs since I was a child! I understand that dogs are more than pets- they're family! That's why I provide personalized, attentive care that goes beyond a simple walk or feeding schedule. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, relaxing stroll, overnight companionship, or someone to keep them company while you're away, I focus on creating a safe, loving, stress-free experience tailored to their individual needs and personality. As a mother I understand how important it is to find a quality care-giver you can trust. That same level of care, responsibility, patience, and attention is what I bring to every dog I walk and sit. My approach is rooted in patience, reliability, and attentiveness. I pay close attention to details, follow routines carefully, and make sure your dog receives affection, exercise, and the care they deserve. You'll receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to stay connected to your furry family member. Even though my family doesn't have a dog currently, my children would love to have one. I felt that pet sitting and dog walking would be a good way for my children to see what it's like to have a dog. I will make sure your dog will be well taken care of! I'm able to check on your dog and/or walk your dog throughout the day. I'll make sure your dog is well taken care of, given plenty of food, water, and attention! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your dog to run around while at my house! I also have children who love dogs. While pet sitting in your home, I will be professional, and respectful of your home.

About: I’m at that stage of life where I can’t have my own pup yet, but I love them so much! So, I’ve been watching my friends and families pets for the last three years! I treat every pup with the same love and attention. I’m a full time medical student who loves dogs more than anything else! I love to spend quality time with furry friends in the evening when I get off of my rotations and weekends when I have a lot of downtime. I have a two bedroom apartment with a balcony and large living room. I tend to walk the dogs 2-3 times a day when they stay with me at my place, depending on if I’m working nearby and can run home for lunch :) Otherwise, I’m home most of the 8 hours I’m not at work, and most of the weekend! Happy to walk dogs and pet sit at other homes and accommodate whatever needs seen fit per your pupper in your home.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for and grooming dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My grooming experience includes bathing, brushing, and nail trims, and I always take a calm, patient approach—especially with nervous or sensitive dogs. I’m confident in reading canine body language and stress signals to ensure each dog feels safe and comfortable. Through Rover, I’ve provided reliable care for many different dogs, tailoring my approach to each pet’s routine and personality. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, crate routines, and administering medication when needed. I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a safe, positive, and stress-free experience while their owners are away. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care, including weekends. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. I provide reliable feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m gentle and patient, especially with nervous pets, and I always monitor behavior and stress levels. I treat every pet like my own and provide updates and photos for peace of mind

About: I have taken care of many animals through out my life and i’ve had them ever since I was 5 so I am confident in knowing how to take care of someone else’s pets and the value of how important it is. I have many skills and experience with animals. I love being an asset to my community and love to make a difference. I am a Vet Tech and I’m a sitter on the side. I am currently in school for Vet Tech through YTI and I am remote, so I have plenty of time to take care of lovely animals, I work at a vet three days a week as a vet assistant! I have 5 dogs and 3 cats but they are very friendly and would love to play with a new furry friend, my pets are very spoiled so other pets will get the very same treatment! I love taking dogs for walks and enjoy playing with animals and giving them the attention they desire. I will also travel if your fur baby needs a sitter. I have a trail behind my house in the woods where my dogs love to walk, and i’m sure your dog would too! I love playing with cats, they are lovely purring friends. I don’t cage my dogs but if your fur baby needs crated I already have crates.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hanoverdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Hanoverdale is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $31 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 932 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hanoverdale. 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 Hanoverdale 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 Hanoverdale 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 Hanoverdale 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hanoverdale. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
