Jen helped us out last minute and watched our dog who has separation anxiety. I had never left my dog with a sitter before but I could tell before I left that my dog was comfortable with her. It’s very obvious Jen is an animal lover. She did a fantastic job with my dog and I’d recommend her to anyone.

Juliana and Caleb were fantastic! They accommodated our last-minute request without hesitation and took wonderful care of our pup who was recovering from knee surgery. They communicated with us throughout, which gave us such peace of mind during a stressful time. Our dogs clearly adore them, and we couldn't be more grateful. Highly recommend!

About: I've been providing house sitting and pet care for the past three years, caring for both dogs and cats while giving owners peace of mind when they're away. During that time, I've looked after pets of all ages, including senior animals and pets with medical needs, so I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining their routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own home, and I treat every home and every animal with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so you can travel knowing your pets are in good hands. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily routine. I make time each day to provide attention, play, feeding, and care to ensure pets feel comfortable and happy. I am able to work pet care into my schedule by prioritizing consistency, communication, and making sure each pet receives the time and attention they deserve. I provide pet care with a focus on safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. I have a cat of my own who I spend plenty of time playing with and caring for, while making sure his needs are always met. I keep my home clean, organized, and free of hazards, with anything potentially unsafe kept out of reach. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully, respect their space and belongings, and treat their home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

Louis was so awesome! I’ve never left my pets alone with anyone outside of my family before, but I felt safe and secure with Louis in charge! Both of my dogs loved him and he took such good care of them. He even sent me some pictures. I will definitely ask Louis to pet sit again.

He sent several photos and videos which helped us enjoy our time away. We will defiantly be reaching out to Bryan again for future house sitting needs!

We cannot recommend Ronny highly enough! When another sitter backed out at the last minute, we reached out to Ronny on short notice. He responded promptly and was more than willing to come by for a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment he walked in the door, our cats were comfortable with him which is not always the case. Ronny took his time answering all of our questions and asked thoughtful questions of his own. Even though we admittedly have a very detailed list of instructions, he did an amazing job remembering all the little things and checking in regularly with messages and photos throughout his stay. It was clear that Ronny genuinely cared about making sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. He was also incredibly respectful of our home, leaving everything exactly as we left it. He even went above and beyond by offering to clear our driveway after an unexpected snowfall. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile and treats your pets like their own, Ronny is absolutely the person to book!

About: From pet-sitting duties and caring for my own animals, I have extensive experience caring for a variety of animals, including feeding, grooming, and providing companionship. I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes, ensuring proper dosage and handling for each. I'm a proud graduate of Bloomsburg University with a bachelor's degree in early childhood education. I also enjoy working part-time in the restaurant industry. My schedule is quite flexible as long as I have some prior notice! I'm happy to work with clients to find times that suit us both well. I'll make sure to follow all of your instructions carefully to keep your little buddy happy! Do you have any specific wishes for them? Just let me know! I welcome them on my bed and couch unless you'd prefer otherwise. I always keep the water bowl full and ensure pets are happy and healthy. If you'd like, I can even give them a bath—just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin! If you choose me, I promise to go above and beyond to take great care of your furry friend!

Jennifer took excellent care of my two special needs senior dogs while we were out of town. I have two anxious pups who take several medications at odd times of the day and I’m personally very anxious to leave my dogs in anyone’s care. As soon as I met Jennifer I noticed she had a very calming presence and asked several questions that immediately made me feel at ease. She was very familiar with anxious dogs and gave my dogs the space they needed to get comfortable. While we were away, Jennifer was able to keep my pups calm and taken care of and provided several pictures and updates. I am very grateful for the time and care she provided and will definitely be reaching out to have her help with my girls the next time we are away.

Kate was terrific! I have two pups, one is a very nervous dog and I've stuck with using family members for years but decided to give Rover a try and got Kate! She was great with the dogs, sent lots of pix while I was gone to let me know all was well (MUCH appreciated) and I could see the pups were calm/happy. Came home to a straight/clean house and two happy dogs :) I will def'ly be working with Kate again in the future if she is game! Thanks Rover!

Brent was absolutely amazing with our large crew. He came for a Meet & Greet to meet our dogs and the cats who decided to join, and everyone was very excited to see him when he came for his stay. We came home to some very excited dogs and clean house, and had no worries while we were away. Thank you so much, Brent!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hopewell Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Hopewell Center on Rover is $44.4 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 2,351 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hopewell Center. 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 Hopewell Center 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 Hopewell Center 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 Hopewell Center 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 Hopewell Center. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
