“Rebecca is wonderful. She helped us last minute when we needed it and took care of our two pups. One of our dogs is recovering from a surgery and Rebecca did a great job managing his meds and the physical therapy he needed daily. I would 10/10 recommend her and look forward to working with her again the in future.”
About: I have had animals of all kinds my whole life and have helped take care of multiple family pets since elementary school. I am experienced with reptiles/amphibians, small animals, as well as cats and dogs. I am very passionate about animal care and currently have a dog, a cat, and several different reptiles. I just graduated and don’t know what I’m going to do yet, so I have a lot of free time to play and hang out with your pets! I can care for your pets however you want me to. I'd like to provide the same level of care that you do and treat your pet like I would my own.
“Jonathan took fantastic care of both our dog, Winston, and our house! I would highly recommend him as a pet/house sitter. He took Winston on very long walks, sent daily photos and updates, and kept us informed on Winston's well-being during our absence. We knew Winston was well cared for, and therefore we had no concerns while we were away. Jonathan gave us peace of mind that our "baby" was just fine.”
“Shannon was excellent with our two dogs. They have very different needs and she was intuitive and attentive with both of them. They got A LOT of attention and exercise. I felt confident that our pups were loved and cared for. Grateful!”
“He was such a huge help, and my 2.5 month old puppy, Hazy, loved him! Rich did dog sitting for around 5 days at my apartment and he was really hands-on, flexible to work around our schedules, and attentive to our pup's need. Will definitely work with him again!”
“Anya was wonderful and our dogs loved her. She did a great job ensuring they were well taken care of and loved. She helped take care of things around the house and sent pictures and updates while we were away. Would 100% recommend her.”
About: Lots of experience caring for animals with anxiety, behavioral issues, special diets and health concerns. My approach to caretaking is grounded in empathy, sensitivity, and attention to all the little nuances that make your pet special. I’m an artist and part-time art professor who works in NY Tuesday-Thursday. I’m available anytime outside of that to give your fur baby my full attention :) I understand the importance of safety and respecting the environment of both you and your pet. I have an intricate system for caring for my pet when I’m away, so I take great care in following instructions when caring for others’.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, and for the past several years I’ve specialized in seniors and small, medium breeds, including my own 11-year-old Yorkie with heart and airway conditions. I’m confident with medications, gentle routines, and multi-day stays, and I currently sit regularly for repeat clients in Providence. I run my own practice from home, so my schedule is flexible and pets are rarely alone. My days are built around routine, morning walks, midday breaks, and calm evenings. Guest dogs join my daily rhythm naturally, with consistent feeding times, multiple walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day In my home, I host one guest at a time in a calm, quiet space with supervised indoor time and secure, leashed walks. In your home, I follow your routines, feeding times, medications, and house rules. I always start with a meet and greet, keep dogs leashed or secured at all times, and send regular photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
“Kaitlyn was great with my girls and house! Everything was just the way I left it. 5 nights 6 days. She sent updates and pictures everyday. I have a reactive dog and a 14.5 year old diabetic cat. She loved/s them and kept them happy, safe, and comfortable while I was away. Thank you Kaitlyn!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many different shapes and sizes since I was 9. I grew up with a white Maltese named Jolina whom I absolutely adored. My friends and family have always felt comfortable leaving me to care for their pets while away on trips. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them all the attention they need! I will follow all instructions and make use of all toys or treats given to ensure your pup has the best time while you’re away.
About: Hi there! I’m Alana – a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for four-legged friends. I’ve never lived in a home without a dog. My very first pup joined our family when I was just five years old, and since then, I’ve had the joy of raising and loving many wonderful pets. My fur baby, Luna, has been by my side for 16 years since she was just six weeks old – she’s my heart and soul! She recently passed away and it’s left my home feeling very empty which is why pet sitting will bring me joy. I also foster dogs from time to time that need a loving home until they find their forever family. Over the years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, caring for dogs (and other pets!) while their humans are away. It comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love it. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the time, flexibility, and energy to give your dog the attention, companionship, and TLC they deserve throughout the day. What sets me apart? Years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities A calm, pet-loving home environment with plenty of affection Daily availability and flexible scheduling A genuine passion for treating your pet like family Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just needs some company while you’re gone, I’m here to help them feel safe, happy, and loved. Let’s chat — I’d love to meet your fur baby! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day to give your pet plenty of love, care, and attention. your pet will always have a calm, watchful presence nearby. We also have a gentle four-year-old daughter who adores animals and is used to being around dogs, especially our own sweet senior pup. Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving, and attentive home environment where they’ll never feel lonely. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family. I create a calm, loving environment where your pup can feel relaxed, safe, and completely at home. Dogs are absolutely allowed on the furniture — snuggles on the couch are encouraged here! I have a fully fenced-in yard that’s perfect for running, playing, and enjoying fresh air in a secure space. I also live just a short walk from a quiet park, ideal for safe and enjoyable walks tailored to your dog’s energy level. Your pup will never be alone — I’m home during the day, and my husband works from home too. That means there’s always someone around to provide attention, belly rubs, potty breaks, and playtime. I’m attentive to your dog’s needs, routines, and personality — whether they’re active and playful or a laid-back lounger. I’m happy to follow any special instructions, feeding routines, medication schedules, or preferences to make their stay as stress-free and comfortable as possible. Your dog will be loved, watched over, and cared for like one of our own — because that’s exactly how I treat them.
“Francis was great! Our 2 cats were happy and healthy when we got home after being gone for over a week. She was also great at responding to texts, and left our home pretty much exactly as we had left it. She is super sweet and will definitely recommend her to take care of your critters.”
“Reese is absolutely fantastic. Both Bertha and Milo absolutely loved her. She stayed with them for the week and took care of all of their needs. I would highly recommend and will be sure to contact her again when I need another sitter.”
About: I have assisted my mom’s dog care business for 15+ years taking care of dogs of every kind by walking, in home sitting, playing, feeding, etc I am available everyday most early mornings, middays and evenings for walking and nights especially on the weekends for house sitting. I walk a lot everyday so adding a dog would make it even better! I am very experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes. I can provide safe and reliable transportation for your dogs, and treats too!
“Lou is the best. I have a very shy pup and it didn’t take Abbie anytime at all to warm up. She’s great with them, respectful of my home and even helped out with Sophie’s medication when she got sick last minute before I left for a work trip. She didn’t hesitate and took fantastic care of her. Lou is dependable and keeps in touch as needed while I’m away. Well recommended!”
“We are so happy that we found Ashley. She’s an amazing communicator and so loving to our dog. Our girl is 84 pounds and can get a bit excited - Ashley handled her with no problems and with the exact care that we would. We will book with her again! 💙”

Sophia is wonderful. She is such an authentic, kind and responsible dog lover. My dog can be very anxious and after being with Sophia for 10 days, I think she prefers her to me! lol. My Winnie was following her around, giving her kisses and rubbing up on her for love...it usually takes a long time for her to build this kind of trust. Im so thankful Sophia was there when I was away. She also left the house so clean, even changed the sheets! Frequent communication and pictures, walks and med administration..Sophia did it all. So grateful!!!
Sophia was truly amazing. She communicated every step of the way and always reached out with any questions. I appreciated how consistently she kept me informed with updates and photos, and how she let me know when she arrived and left each day. She also gave me helpful summaries of their daily activities so I always knew how Kharma was doing. I came home to a neat and tidy house, the trash taken out, and a very happy dog. It was clear Kharma was well cared for. I’d absolutely trust her again.

The average cost of House Sitting in Hope is $66 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $67 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 Hope 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 Hope 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hope 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.
