About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15 I’m now 20 and I want to make your pups feel loved even when you are away. I have two jobs one full time which is a 7-5 and my 2nd job I can move my schedule to help take care of your pups as long as you contact me before the 9th of the next month which I know is really a head but it helps me out! I have a fenced in yard and friendly pups or if your pup doesn’t like animals I can help you out by staying home with them at your house. I also offer bathing and trimming of nails, feet, and sanitary, and full trims depending on what kind of pup you have!

“Lila did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies! She is very professional and took pride in caring for our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She stayed at our house and it was immaculate when we returned. I will definitely contact Lila for future house sitting. Thank you again Lila!!”

About: Having grown up with both cats and dogs, I understand firsthand that pets are more than just animals—they're family! I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and my goal is to give them the same love, care, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your furry friend enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing and having some company, I'm happy to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving dependable, attentive, and loving care. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel connected to your furry friend while you're away! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I work remotely full-time from home, which allows me to offer doggy daycare services during the week while providing a comfortable, loving environment for your furry family members. Since I'm home throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship while making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I'm also available for overnight boarding on weekends, giving you peace of mind knowing your pet is in a welcoming and attentive environment while you're away. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I'll do my best to accommodate their individual needs and schedules. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby, I'll make sure they feel right at home! Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I take the time to learn about your pet's preferences, feeding schedule, behavior, and any special care instructions before each visit. When caring for pets in your home, I'll respect your space while making sure your furry friend receives plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I'll always make sure doors are secure, fresh water is available, and your pet's environment is clean and comfortable. I also believe communication is important! I'll provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving loving care.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire adult life and have been caring for dogs for over 20 years. I currently have a 9-year-old Boston Terrier who is truly the love of my life, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. I’m attentive, patient, and very tuned in to dogs’ individual needs and personalities. I love giving dogs plenty of time outside with walks, hikes, and safe play, along with calm companionship and structure. I’m experienced with basic obedience and fun training, including sit, stay, shake, lie down, roll over, heel, and more. I’m comfortable reinforcing routines, providing mental stimulation, and making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is high-energy or more laid-back, I meet them where they are and treat them like they’re my own. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize dog care throughout the day. As a photographer, I can plan my shoots around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I don’t have many long, all-day commitments this year. This means I’m available for consistent walks, extended visits, and quality one-on-one time. I love being active and would genuinely enjoy filling my schedule with caring for dogs and keeping them happy, exercised, and well attended to. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication. I follow all instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your dog feels comfortable and secure at all times. I’m attentive on walks, mindful of surroundings, and experienced with leash handling and basic training cues. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hazleton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 83 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hazleton. 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 Hazleton 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 Hazleton 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 Hazleton 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.

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.
