“Justine, is amazing! We have 1 dog that is very hyper and 1 that is very timid and does not care for strangers but when Justine came over for our meet and great and they all did great with her we agreed we would try. After the pictures of our timid dog sleeping with Justine I knew she was the one for us. We already have her booked for another stay. We love her and she is now part of the family. Thank you Justine, you are the best and love you.”
About: My whole childhood was spent chasing after critters of all kinds on my grandma’s farm, this firmly cemented my lifelong passion for making new furry friends. I give great scritches, brush until the fur flies, and do my level best to spoil rotten the all of God’s creatures. I’m also an accomplished artist who specializes in drawing pet portraits who’s always available for commission. I work from home during the day so I’m able to accommodate walks and check ins but I am most available in the evenings. I am currently unable to accommodate aggressive dogs, but otherwise I’m very happy to work fearful critters who may need time or space to feel safe.
“Rosie is amazing! She took such good care of my girl and worked much harder than she had to to gain her trust. She sent tons of pictures, had excellent communication and kept me updated the whole week. My dog is not an easy one but she handled her like a pro!”
“I appreciate all that Megan does for my two dogs. She spent the week with them. She let me know one had allergies acting up and made sure my dog was getting allergy meds while I was away. Some how she’s managed to get some good pics with both dogs facing the camera, something that isn’t easy to do. I will continue to use Megan to watch my pups. I highly recommend her. You’ll be glad you’ve booked her for your next trip.”
“Absolutely phenomenal care for my pups and my home. Emily texted and sent pics daily keeping me up to date on everything with the dogs. Highly recommend her to care for your furry family members!”
“Jessie did a wonderful job watching my house and taking care of my dog. I could tell after being gone 5 days that Cato was in good hands with the routine updates and pictures. Cato was happy to see me when I got home but was also relaxed. I could tell that he and Jessie got along great.”
“Our dogs seemed so happy bin the pictures and they sent daily pictures of all 4 of our fur babies! They came a day early to meet our dogs so they would be more familiar to them. Definitely recommend!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a very long time. I own a cockapoo named BaeLee and she is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. I now own 2 dogs: Benito and Bernie. Benito is a Rottweiler mix and Bernie is a lab/pitbull. I adopted both from the shelter and have loved my new additions to my family. I take care of my family’s and friend’s dogs all the time from watching them, playing with them, feeding them, and walking them. I am very good with dogs and can be very patient if I need to be. I love sitting down and working on tricks. Having two puppies has taught me the importance of routine and training but also fun! I take care of my pup daily. From the time I wake up until I go to sleep I am always attentive to her needs. Every now and then I’ll take care of my uncles dog throughout the day and take him out every two hours. I am very nice and patient with animals. I love to pet them and play fetch or tug of war. I do not like to touch other’s things when I go to their houses and I respect their rules. I don’t do what I wouldn’t like done in my home to other’s homes.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 10+ years. My fur babies are my world. I believe all animals deserve to be loved. Choose the best. I’m going to school part time and I would love to enjoy my free time taking care of some fur babies. Ask me your questions. I have a fenced in backyard. I live right by a park and university. I have an upstairs and downstairs in my home. Many space.
About: I’ve had a dog for most of my life, starting as a kid when I begged my family to have one. I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to care for your dog. My work schedule is flexible now, and will have time to give your pet the care and attention they need! I can spend lots of quality time with them. I consider dogs to be members of the family. When I have had my own dog in the past, they were generally rarely alone, always going to work with me and on errands.
“Brianna did great with my little anxious senior girl. She sent pictures and kept me up to date with how she was doing. I left for the evening knowing my dog was in great hands! Very kind and attentive sitter!”
About: I have done drop in visits, farm sitting, dog grooming, equine care, and taken care of many animals. I have at least 10 references. Love all the animals and will treat them with love and respect. I own a mobile dog grooming business so can make my own schedule. I have my farm animals but I have help from family to care for mine when I’m needed elsewhere. I prefer to let the animals be in their own home as they seem less stressed knowing they will be where there family will be coming back to. They have their comfortable spots and smells and doesn’t disrupt their routine but if necessary I could care for them at my home. Would walk smaller dogs on leash outside or have outdoor pens for larger dogs to get to run.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the majority of my life. I’ve grown up with them in many parts of my family and i’ve also taken care of family-friends animals when needed! I have no problems with providing animals with the care they deserve! I am currently working full time as a Waitress/Bartender! I have three dogs of my own that I take care of during my off time! My schedule does vary week to week, but it can also be flexible! I currently live in an apartment. I love taking my dogs on walks or to the dog parks around town. I also love just sitting outside with them on my porch and enjoying the weather!
“Amy looked after our cat and dog over the Christmas holidays for 8 days, and it was worry free! She spent loads of time with them, and we always felt they were in great hands. She sent us pictures and nice updates throughout. Thanks, Amy.”
“Leo took great care of our dog and our house. He sent photos to us everyday, and our dog so looked so happy I thought the pup wouldn't want us to return home. Leo was good with communication. It is obvious Leo loves dogs. I would highly recommend him!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Hoyt
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hoyt on Rover is $55.5 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 96 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hoyt. 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 Hoyt 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 Hoyt 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 Hoyt 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
