“Sofia is very diligent in following my puppies care instructions. She’s also thorough in sending pictures and updates. I don’t have to worry about my puppy because I see pictures of her all day long!”
“Amy took awesome care of our dog while we were on vacation. She made sure he got his medicine and went for daily walks. She kept me up to date with pictures. I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pet!”
“Stefanie was absolutely amazing! She was super flexible with some last minute changes and took excellent care of our menagerie of pets. We are looking forward to booking with her again in the near future.”
“Hannah did a great job taking care of our dog for a few days while we were away! She stayed in our home and left the place super clean and we came home to a happy dog! She communicated with us very well and was very professional! Would love to have her back again to care for our dog on our next trip!”
“My husband and I are very happy we found Kat through Rover. Our two dogs and cat are more than happy too! Kat was very professional, easy to work with, and bonded with our critters right away. She addressed all of our questions and concerns about someone staying in our home while we were on vacation. We were forced to deal with flight delays & cancellations - it was a relief knowing that Kat was there to take care of things at home. We feel that Kat went above and beyond our expectations. We will most certainly use her again without delay!”
“I had a last minute cancellation for pet sitting and was able to find Peter whom did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog. He took my dog on nice walking trails and gave me suggestions on caretaking him. Peter is really down to earth and I believe my dog really trusted and enjoyed his company. I am very grateful to Peter and hope he has success in pet sitting in the future!”
“Brittany did 2 night house/dog sitting for my senior blind dog. She was very nice, communicative, and sent photos - no complaints here! One thing I really appreciated: there is a large gap in the day between feedings so informed her a head of time that she may leave for a bit like 1-4 hrs if needed for errands, appointments, etc (she did not ask! I came out with this and usually tell sitters this). I just dont want my dog alone all day and night as I work from home and am always here, and I do not want too much in and out or just walk ins. Closer to the scheduled sitting, she kindly let me know she would need to step out briefly which I confirmed was still fine. Without me asking her to do so, she messaged me when she left with expected time of return and messaged me when she officially returned”
“Erin was amazing watching our dogs. She was very thorough, thoughtful and loving with them. She did a great job of keeping us updated throughout her stay. She was even accommodating when we added our in-laws dog to the booking. Would highly recommend her and will keep her in mind for another booking”
About: I have extensive experience pet sitting cats, dogs, fish, and birds. I always think that animals are a part of ones families and should be treated so. I am a reliable pet sitter, and love animals. I have watched a range of animal ages and have experience with puppies and kittens all the way to senior animals. I also have watched diabetic pets so have experience with providing insulin and also can provide medications. I have worked with families who have multiple animals up to 7 for dogs, and 9 for cats. I love taking dogs on walks and having play time with them. I bring a loving and caring attitude to work, and you can rest assured that while you are away, your pets are in good hands.
About: As dog parents with experience in fostering, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. We’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine, and favorite things so they feel comfortable while you’re away. We understand that every dog is different, some love playtime and long walks, while others prefer a slower pace and extra cuddles. We will follow your care instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel connected and confident that your dog is being cared for. I work a very flexible hybrid schedule, and my husband works fully remotely, so someone is always home throughout the day. Caring for our own dogs is already part of our daily routine, and we work together to provide potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. We believe walks and enrichment are important parts of keeping dogs happy and fulfilled. We make time for walks that let dogs set the pace and enjoy plenty of sniffing, along with enrichment activities tailored to their interests and energy levels. We also enjoy visiting local parks and fields for more exploring. At home, we have a tether anchored in the backyard for supervised outdoor time, and we will always follow your dog’s comfort level and preferences when/if you prefer for it to be used. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s needs and usual routine to make sure our schedule and activities are a good fit. Whether your pet stays in our home or I visit them in yours, their safety and comfort are always a priority. Before booking, we’ll discuss their personality, routines, and any special needs so we can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. For stays in our home, we’ll arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog gets along with ours and make sure everyone is a good fit. We’ll discuss feeding arrangements, supervision, and any boundaries your dog needs, including having their own space to relax. Outdoor tether time is always supervised and only offered with your approval. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and home security. We’ll also go over any triggers, escape tendencies, or other concerns so I know what to watch for. You’ll receive photos and updates, and your pet will get plenty of attention, patience, and care.
“Brian took great care of our Gracie and our home. Gracie is very energetic 2 year old. Brian walked her at least 3 times a day as well as playing with her. He sent us many photos which helped us greatly as this was our first trip away from Gracie. He was very attentive to her. We will definitely hire Brian again for our next trip if he is available.”
“We needed an emergency sitter for our puppy Pete who is recovering from surgery and Katryna came to the rescue. She was conscientious and very kind with our little guy and we would definitely have her watch him again.”
“Paige has house sat for our animals twice now, and she has been fantastic! The communication and care she gives them has always been a huge relief when we go away on trips.”
About: I have been caring for dogs all my life. I care for my family, neighbors and friends pet by walking, feeding and bathing animal. I also have experience in providing injections if necessary. I am currently employed. However,I am open to to weekends, drop in visits , dog walking and house sitting. I am open for late night shifts and sleepovers I am open to home visits, I will ensure that I watched your animals attentively and ensure they are in sight at all times. I will feed your pets on time, arrange play dates, take them on long walks, make sure they potty and anything that they like. I will provide lots of love and attention as needed. NB I am capable of injection and medications distribution.
“this was my first time using rover and i was nervous, but joanna made the process so easy! she is a very nice person and respectful house guest. she even got my dog to walk nicely on her leash! i was so impressed! i would definitely would recommend joanna to anyone”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had seven dogs and six cats, so caring for pets was a part of my everyday life. From feeding and grooming to playtime, walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention, I learned early on what it takes to help pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for mice, turtles, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I’ve always had pets throughout my life, and caring for animals has never felt like a chore, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I also spend time feeding and observing backyard birds, which reflects my love and appreciation for all kinds of animals. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or another beloved pet, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Although I have an unfenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. We also have a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks that are perfect for walks and exercise. If your pet is crate trained or you prefer they be crated when unattended or at bedtime, I’m happy to accommodate that routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hatfield
Gabi watched our dogs for our wedding weekend & she was wonderful! We’ve never hired a dog sitter before and she made the process so easy and stress free. She sent photos and updates throughout the weekend and we knew our pups were in good hands. Will definitely book her again in the future!
Kristy was great! She was very communicative throughout the stay, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was very punctual. Our dog clearly had a great time with her, and she was very kind and helpful throughout. She also left our house in great shape. We’d definitely use Kristy again!
Rachel stayed with my 2 dogs for a week and gave them all the attention that they needed. She genuinely cares for them and does so the way you would …from walks to belly rubs and extra hugs during a thunderstorm. She keeps a very neat home and is very communicative. I can’t speak more highly of Rachel and how well she cared for my four legged family members.
Kim was amazing with our 2 dogs, one a puppy, while we were away for 2 weeks! She stayed in constant contact with us, sending daily pictures and updates. We even had to troubleshoot a few situations, and Kim was super flexible when it came to managing our spirited dogs! I highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her services for our next vacation!
I cannot imagine anyone being better than Reanna was for our home and fur babies. Her communication and faithfulness were exceptional! Our animals were well taken care of and were comfortable with her. Right from the first day i felt relieved and confident that we left them in such good hands. She sent great pictures and updates. She played with them. And she handled challenges like a pro! She is my first call if I need someone again!!

The average cost of House Sitting in Hatfield is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $81 per night.

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 Hatfield 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 Hatfield 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 Hatfield 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 , 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 .
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.
