“Jasmine was so great with our girls. She sent lots of photos and updates. She took extra good care of our home too. She certainly went above and beyond and we will 100% use her again!”

I loved seeing how comfortable and happy Teddy was with you 🥰🐾 Also thank you, for responding so quickly! It was such a pleasure meeting you. We hope to see you again soon! 💕🐶”
“Sarah was a very professional woman. I appreciate her availability and keeping me updated on my dogs and her schedule. She sent me videos, and if she had a question about anything, she did not hesitate to reach out. I would love to have her house/dog sit in the future.”
“Jazmine is an amazing pet and house sitter. She did as we asked and when we came home our pets were so happy and healthy. I trust her to take great care of all 4 of my animals and my home. She is communicative and receptive and willing to go out of her way when needed.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She was absolutely wonderful with our boys: patient, kind, and clearly someone who genuinely cares. She went over and above in every way, and we had zero stress while we were away because we knew they were in great hands. She sent pictures every day and kept us completely in the loop, which made everything feel easy and worry‑free. We’re really grateful for the care she gave them and would book with her again without hesitation.”
“I can’t thank Andrea enough for all that she did for us. I am so grateful for her. Louie is an extremely anxious puppy and he fell in love with her!!! He definitely already misses her because he kept looking for her in the spare room. I will continue to book Andrea for every trip and you should consider her too. Andrea was very respectful and attentive. She constantly sent us updates and pictures. Thank You for all you did Andrea! You’re the best and we consider you family now! 🩷”
About: I am dependable, attentive, and caring, providing clean spaces, consistent routines, clear communication, and loving companionship so pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy every visit Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I work Monday through Friday from 7:30–4:00, allowing availability mornings, evenings, and all day on weekends for attentive, reliable care I care for pets by following their usual routines, providing attention, playtime, and comfort, and keeping their space clean and safe. I respect each home and communicate clearly with owners
“This is the first time we had used Rover and we were a little nervous going in, not knowing how the sitter would do over a 12 day period with 5 cats, including a very hyper kitten. But from the moment we met Yuliia we were very reassured. She is absolutely fantastic, very communicative, and our babies took to her very quickly right from the first pre-house/cat-sitting meet & greet. While we were away she sent us daily pics and updates on the babies. Halfway into our vacation my husband and I were joking that she is cat sitting her way into our will - we were that impressed. Upon return she left the house impeccable and we came home to 5 very well cared for cats. We would very highly recommend Yuliia and would absolutely call on her for house/cat-sitting again.”
“Alexandra was so patient with us! Our first time using Rover and she made the experience so easy! She stayed at our home so our babies could be at the environment and we are forever grateful!”
About: Hi there! If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs, you've found them! Caring for pups is something I truly enjoy. As a stay-at-home mom, I'm available every day of the week to give your dog plenty of attention. At my home your dog will have tons of room to run around in our big, fenced backyard. All dogs are treated with love, cuddles and care 🐾 and are always allowed to roam freely. We also go on walks pretty regularly. My friendly golden retriever, Adley, is super social and loves making new buddies. We're a family with children who understand doggy boundaries but also enjoy some gentle interaction. I'm happy to cater to dogs who might be a little skittish and need a calm patient approach, as well as those who simply enjoy to just lounge and hang out! ♥️ I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs, including administering medication (even for pups with conditions like cancer), so you can trust your pups will be well taken care of. 🐾 Please note that for the safety and comfort of all our guests, I am unable to accept dogs with a history of aggression. Puppies who aren’t fully potty-trained, a crate will be required for their stay to ensure a comfortable and accident-free environment for everyone. (Please note they are only crated for bedtime or if I need to leave the house for a quick errand) I look forward to meeting your awesome dog! 🐾🐾🐾 🚨To make sure your dog gets just the right amount of food, please provide clear instructions on how much to feed at each meal (example: 1 cup twice a day). This is super important for your dog's health and helps avoid any issues or misunderstandings for both of us. If you pre-portion the food, that's great too! 🦮 Important note regarding dog walks : I love to provide walks for your babies. Walks depend on the weather but are given every day. If it is too hot during the day expect a walk given in the evening/night time. Please note for the safety and the best experience I cannot accommodate dogs who consistently pull excessively on the leash. If significantly pulling occurs during a walk, I will discontinue that part of my service and focus on other alternatives of exercise such as (outdoor play or indoor stimulation) Being a stay-at-home mom allows me to be very flexible with pet care. Your dog's needs will be integrated into our daily flow, whether it's adjusting walk times or providing consistent attention. 🐾😊 When your dog stays with me, they're welcomed into our daily life. This includes playtime in our backyard, regular walks, and a cozy spot inside where they can feel at home and get the attention they need. Please know that I prioritize your dog's safety and comfort; they will never be left outside unattended if the weather is too hot or too cold.

“Thank you so much, Natalie, for taking such wonderful care of Teddy Bear! 🐾❤️ He looked so relaxed and comfy in all the pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. We would absolutely love to have you back again soon! 😊🐶💕”
“Bella was able to accommodate our last minute house sitting request during Easter weekend. She is very professional, responsive, and friendly. Thor absolutely adored her and it was wonderful receiving updates/photos. We look forward to booking with Bella soon for future services.”
“Donna was great! I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my doggies were in great hands. Her periodic check ins helped me enjoy my vacation as well of have peace of mind about my doggies being taken care of. Her care and kindness towards pets is definitely appreciated! I will definitely be booming Donna from here on out!”
“Reuben showed up for an emergency dog sitting, for us and our 2 dogs. He did a fantastic job with our dogs. He sent many pictures and communicated with us very well. We are very happy with Reuben and his help with our babies. Thanks again!”
About: I have always loved being around animals as they bring so much joy. I have had pet dogs ever since I was born and have grown a very strong attachment to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I make sure every pet is treated as family. I bring energy and enjoy going on walks/runs, having fun during playtime and even enjoy cozy moments with shy pets, a good book, and quiet companionship. Happy to adjust to each pets unique routine and behavior! I work a part-time job working in the medical field and make time for dedicated walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I’m available on weekends, evenings and some weekday mornings! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by caring for pets in their familiar home environment where they feel most relaxed and secure. Maintaining routine and a calm, stress-free environment for all pets.
“Natalie and Benji bonded quickly. Natalie was very good about responding to any inquiries and sending pics of Benji. Benji has high anxiety, especially during the July 4th holiday. We really appreciated Natalies caring attitude. We would not hesitate to recommend Natalie as a dog / house sitter. We have already booked another vacation. with Natalie as our sitter.”

Alexis is a one-of-a-kind sitter, and could not have been more thrilled to have had my little one in her care. She was very attentive to detail and caring to notify me regularly of day-to-day activities while I was away. Cannot recommend her enough!! Will be looking forward to working with her again in the future.
Alexandra did a great job with my girls. She gave updates, photos and videos of their time together. She took care of my home and made me feel like the girls and my house were in great hands for the weekend. I’d highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.

Tessa was easy to communicate with, and she always responded in a timely manner. We received updates throughout the day on our babies, and she even messaged when she had a question about something. We were able to enjoy our mini-vacation with zero worries about our fur babies, whom we had to leave at home. We will definitely book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Horizon City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Horizon City on Rover is $49.95 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 295 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Horizon City. 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 Horizon City 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 Horizon City 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 Horizon City 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.

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.
