This was my second time booking with Lauran, and once again she was absolutely wonderful! Having someone I can trust with my two cats gives me so much peace of mind while we're away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, made sure my cats were well cared for, and even managed to earn the trust of my very shy cat, which says a lot! It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes above and beyond to make sure they're comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!

We couldn’t be happier with Kaitlyn! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear that she truly cares about animals and treats them like family. Shadow and Meeka immediately felt comfortable — which says a lot, because Meeka can be shy with new people. Throughout our trip Kaitlyn sent regular updates, photos, and even little notes about how the day went. It gave us total peace of mind knowing our senior dogs were getting attention, walks, and love just like if we were home. When we returned, they were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. We’ve used other sitters in the past, but no one compares to Kaitlyn! Reliable, communicative, and genuinely compassionate — everything you could ask for. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust completely and we’ve already booked with her again!

Asher was incredible! She cared for my pup, Leo, while I was away, and her care was simply outstanding. She was so thoughtful and engaged. She sent frequent updates, adorable photos, and left my home spotless. Knowing Leo was in such caring hands made my trip even more enjoyable. It’s clear she has a gift for this, and Leo adored her. I am immensely grateful!

Donai did an amazing job caring for my babies! I have an eclectic mix of animals - a dog, a cat, and a bearded dragon. She came to meet everyone and really get to know them and their routines before her stay, and then provided updates throughout the weekend. I definitely recommend using Donai!

Jessi was great. My dog really enjoyed her and her sweet dog. She took good care of my dog’s toenail that had been torn off. She made sure he wore his sock and washed his foot when necessary. One day they got sick and she got there quickly to take care of them, even though she was working.

Ava was great! She is one of the best sitters I have had so far, she did exactly everything that I asked if her. I loved all of the picture she sent throughout the day and that made me feel at ease although I was 300 miles away. My apartment felt even cleaner than I left it! My cat was seemed happy and content when I came back - she wasn’t clingy at all like she didn’t miss me much lol. I would definitely ask Ava to sit my place again. Highly recommend her.

I would definitely recommend Anna to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I'd be happy to book with her again!

Katie watched our rottie and mixed breed while we went on a short overnight trip. She sent pictures, kept the house clean, and the pups were happy as can be! We had a water leak (no fault of Hers) while we were gone, she called us immediately and took care of clean up so we didn’t have to leave our trip early. Would highly recommend her for any of your pet needs! :D

About: My family got our first dog when I was 6 years old so I’ve been around dogs most of my life. Having taken care of them for so long, I understand what it takes to keep them happy. I recently lost my childhood dog and I miss being around dogs so much. This is a great way for me to stay around them! I am a college baseball player and just got back for the rest of summer. I am not working and have nothing going on so I am free all the time. I have a large yard but I will keep your dog supervised the whole time or leashed if needed. If your dog is at my house, it will be treated with even better care than usual, my whole family loves dogs.

Madison was excellent. She helped us out with both our dog and cat with a very last minute request. She was very responsive and easy to work with and clearly has a lot of pet experience. I had zero hesitation leaving her with the house and the pets. As expected, the furry kids were happy and the house was in perfect order upon our return. I will definitely reach out to Madison again!

Kaeli was very good with my doggo. She kept me up to date while we were gone and showed that she really cares. I’m hesitant to leave too good a review, in case she gets booked up and I can’t use her again. But she’s the best. Five stars.

Avery came to our home to sit with our 4-legged babies for a couple of hours. We don’t really leave them home alone but we both needed to be gone at the same time and other sitters we’d previously used were not available. It was pretty expensive for a few hours but we were grateful she could do it on just a few days notice. Avery was prompt in arriving, friendly, good with the dogs, and sent a pic during the time she was there. I would not hesitate to book her again if needed.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hills and Dales

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Hills and Dales on Rover is $29.43 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 746 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hills and Dales. 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 Hills and Dales 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 Hills and Dales 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 Hills and Dales 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 Hills and Dales. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
