“My mind was completely at ease while Brandi was sitting with our dog. When we had our meeting prior to the weekend she sat for us, Brandi was thorough with her questions for me which gave me confidence that she knew what she was doing. She gave us updates and by the pictures she sent I could tell Leia was happy and loved on. We will definitely have her sit with Leia again.”
“Wilma goes above and beyond when it comes to house sitting she takes the time to get to know my pets, she updates me daily, is very respectful, I always feel at ease on the road when Wilma stays at my house.”
“Anna did a fantastic job for us. She kept us informed, went above and beyond for our elderly dog and she also took the initiative to do necessary tasks around the house. I would highly recommend her and will certainly book with her again!”
“This was Turbo‘s first weekend with Jessie and they had a marvelous time. Jessie sent pictures and updates- she and turbo did all of his favorite activities including playtime, cuddles, and a walk. I arrived home with him happy and relaxed.”

“Dahae took care of my two cats and two dogs for a full week while I was out of town, and she was incredible from start to finish. She checked in regularly, kept me updated, and treated all four of my babies like her own. She kept every pet fed and comfortable, and made sure the dogs got out on a consistent schedule. I came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house, which is honestly the best feeling after traveling. The care and thoughtfulness she put into everything made such a difference. I highly recommend Dahae to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely loving with animals.”

“Shalindra was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Kahlua, while we were away. She went above and beyond in every way, even accommodating a last-minute flight delay and staying later than planned on her birthday to make sure Kahlua was cared for. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, and it was clear Kahlua had a great time with all of the park adventures and extra attention. When we returned, Kahlua was happy, freshly bathed, and our home was spotless. Shalindra was incredibly respectful of our house and treated both our dog and our home with so much care. We felt completely at ease knowing Kahlua was in such capable hands and would gladly trust Shalindra again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Georgia met us for a meet and greet, arrived early to the house sit, and provided daily updates and photos of our dog while we were away. She was very dependable and kept our dog on schedule, which is so important to us when trusting someone with our dog! Thank you Georgia!”
“We couldn't be happier with the job Gabrielle did watching our home, dogs, and chickens. She sent us regular photos of our dogs and asked questions whenever she needed information. We came home to happy dogs and a clean house. Thanks Gabrielle!”
About: I’m Roh - a doctor-in-training, who is really just on here to spend more time with dogs & cats! I've taken care of friends' & family's dogs my whole life on & off - sometimes dogsitting, at other times walks, feeding them, quick potty breaks, and playing with them to keep them entertained. I am always so happy to be around furry friends & cannot wait to meet yours! I know I’m new on here & you might be nervous about that; I’m happy to do an in-person meet & greet where we can meet in a public space, I can meet your dog, and we can make sure we all get along! NOTE: I know my current rates are under market average. This is a new client promo, available for the next 3 months, while I set up here! I work full time Monday to Friday from 8 to 5 (rarely 6pm), but I’m available during the rest of the time. I think of myself as a great affordable fit for people going on short vacations or work trips, or if you just want an easy night in. On weekdays I can stop by early in the morning around 6:30-7am for a drop-in or a quick walk, followed by a longer walk in the evening with some playtime. On weekends I can dedicate a lot of my time to your pet! I can do up to 3 walks a day, if they prefer that. I am a big believer in respecting your residence. When petsitting, I keep things clean & will do my utmost best to leave your place as you left it! With your pet, I always try to strive for a mix of engagement & letting them chill, depending on their mood.
“Moriah watched my collie mix while I was gone and it was such a pleasure. She did a great job, especially managing my high energy dog and my dog’s medication. I look forward to booking her again next time I need a dog sitter.”

Tamara has been wonderful - she took great care of my dog. She’s also very responsive and easy to communicate with which is so important to me when leaving a pet behind. I love it when pet sitters ask questions and try to work with me in terms of setting expectations. Tamara was great overall and I would definitely be asking her for her availability when we travel in the future.
Caleb and Nicole were wonderful with our fur babies during our wedding! This was our second time booking with them, and once again they were flexible, trustworthy, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. They sent lots of great photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We would happily recommend them and absolutely plan to book with them again!
Ingrid took incredible care of Morticia while we were out of town for 4 days. She provided attentive care, playtime, and administered medication while we were gone. Morticia was in a great mood and showed health improvements when we came home. Ingrid provided daily photo updates and asked clarifying questions about Morticia’s care. Thank you for taking such good care of Morticia, Ingrid— we will definitely book again!
kristen was amazing! i have to admit—i was nervous! this was our first time leaving our puppers for this long. my husband and i went to hawaii for a week and kristen came to stay at our house. not only did she do everything we asked of her, she went above and beyond (administering medication) and messaged us daily with updates, pics/videos…. i was completely as ease the whole time and actually enjoyed my vacation. my pom has separation anxiety and she didn’t cry once while i was gone.. that’s HUGE. i will defo call her next time we leave town. i trust her completely🩷
Katie was seriously the best. 🥹 It was so clear how much she genuinely loved spending time with Indi, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated, gave Indi so much love and attention, and treated her like she was her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything. You can tell Katie truly loves animals, and we’re so grateful we found her. Looking forward to rebooking again in a heartbeat and honestly can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Katie! ❤️
Tina is the best! She took wonderful care of our two dogs and two cats over Memorial Day weekend. We had a last-minute cancellation, and she came for a meet-and-greet the same day we reached out and quickly confirmed the booking, which was such a relief. She was very mindful of all of our house rules and clearly cared about our pets. Both our dogs and cats loved her, and it was obvious they were happy and comfortable in her care. She also went above and beyond by helping with little things around the house, including taking out our garbage bins. We received regular updates and came home to happy pets and a well-kept house. We would absolutely book with Tina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Nicole was wonderful with our two sensitive, high energy dobies. They can be slow to warm up to new people. Nicole was fantastic! She did a meet and greet with us to ensure it was a good fit. She was attentive to all our needs while we were away. We will definitely have Nicole back again to care for our pets!
We’ve had some amazing dog sitters in the past, but the care Magdalena provided was on an entirely different level. Our previous sitters were great, but this was a different kind of care, more loving, affectionate, nurturing, and deeply connected than anything we’ve experienced before. We had actually been avoiding vacations over the past year because of our 14-year-old senior dog. With his mix of good and tough days, we were nervous about leaving him and wanted someone we truly trusted to handle any situation, especially since he can get anxious when we’re away. We interviewed a number of sitters, but choosing Magdalena was a no brainer. From the moment she walked through the door, both dogs were instantly drawn to her, and the feeling was clearly mutual. She immediately showered them with affection, and they didn’t leave her side the entire visit. While we were away, Magdalena was an absolute dream. She kept us constantly updated with photos and thoughtful daily summaries, which gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond in her care, even taking them on daily field trips to dog parks and giving them long, enriching walks. What really stood out was how quickly she understood each dog’s unique needs. She recognized that our senior dog needed more mental stimulation, while our younger dog needed more physical activity, and she balanced both perfectly. In fact, her care seemed to give our older dog a bit of renewed energy. Magdalena is also an amazing trainer. Throughout her time with our dogs, she naturally introduced helpful training techniques and tips, which made a noticeable difference. We truly couldn’t be more impressed. Magdalena treated our dogs like her own, and it showed in how happy and well cared for they were. Because of the trust we now have in her, we feel much more confident about traveling in the coming months. It is such a relief knowing we have a sitter who will meet our dogs’ needs so exceptionally well. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hazelwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hazelwood on Rover is $55.5 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 8,417 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hazelwood. 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 Hazelwood 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 Hazelwood 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 Hazelwood 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 Hazelwood. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
