“Noah was great, he was very patient in getting to know Abby and kept us up to date on the progress. Abby did warm up and they became good buddies. Noah was very low impact, the house was as neat as it was when we left. I would gladly have him come back!”
About: I've been walking dogs for three years and been around them my whole life. It's the part of my week I actually look forward to. Your dog keeps their routine. Same meals, same walks, same order. You show me how it works at the walkthrough and I stick to it. I'm comfortable with older dogs too. I've handled some with limited mobility and I've given medication on a schedule. I speak English and Spanish. Hablo español Weekend trips are what I do best. Saturdays and Sundays I'm home with your dog the whole day. On weekdays I'm there overnight, out the door in the morning after breakfast and a walk, and back by six for a long evening walk and the rest of the night. Longer trips work well for dogs who are comfortable on their own during the workday. For walks and drop-ins, weekday evenings after 6pm and anytime on weekends. I don't board dogs at my place. I come to you. Your dog sleeps in their own bed and keeps their own schedule, which is usually the easiest thing for them. We start with a walkthrough so I get your dog right. How much they eat and when. Any medication and the trick to getting them to take it. Which leash and harness. Where the food and the cleanup bags live. Your vet and a backup contact. What your dog does when they're nervous and what helps them settle. I write it all down and I work from those notes. Keys get handed off in person or through a lockbox. I never leave one out. I never put your address on a tag. Leash stays on anytime we're outside. No dog parks or off-leash areas unless you tell me your dog is good with it. I check the gate and the door behind me every single time. You'll get a photo and a few lines every morning and every evening. Not a running commentary. Just enough that you never wonder how it's going. I have a car and your dog rides secured. If they need a vet I'll get them there and call you from the parking lot. We'll sort out how payment works beforehand so nobody is figuring that out in an exam room. If I can't reach you I'll try your backup contact and I'll act. I'm not going to sit on something waiting for a text back. On house sits I bring in the mail and take the bins out. I don't have people over. Your place stays yours.
“Dahae stayed my house to take care of my needy dog with bad separation anxiety. She was very considerate for needs & communicated with me well. My dog seemed to be comfortable with her quickly . I would ask her to watch him again .”
“Rhiannon took amazing care of my 6 year old border collie and made sure he had lots of exercise. She left my apartment spotless and was super communicative with pictures and videos daily. Highly recommend and will be booking her again soon.”
“Moriah watched my collie mix while I was gone and it was such a pleasure. She did a great job, especially managing my high energy dog and my dog’s medication. I look forward to booking her again next time I need a dog sitter.”
“My mind was completely at ease while Brandi was sitting with our dog. When we had our meeting prior to the weekend she sat for us, Brandi was thorough with her questions for me which gave me confidence that she knew what she was doing. She gave us updates and by the pictures she sent I could tell Leia was happy and loved on. We will definitely have her sit with Leia again.”
“10/10! Dmytro was stellar in care of my dogs and taking care of our home. He took the time to do an initial meet and greet with me; he was thoughtful, communicative, very easy to work with, and sent lots of pictures of my dogs while I was gone. We came home to a clean home and my dogs loved him! Will definitely have him house- and dog-sit again - very very happy with experience. Thanks Dmytro!”
“I have booked with Uliana multiple times and trust her immensely. She keeps the house absolutely spotless and my dog Ginger loves her. She sends fun updates and I can tell her and my pup go on fun walks. Uliana is a star sitter for a reason!”
“Wesley took great care of our 2 cats and dog while we were away! He sent lots of pictures which made us feel much better about leaving them after recently moving to the area. He was also responsive and came by twice before the pet sitting appointment to meet our pets and go over care instructions. He left our house very clean, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again! I trust that he takes good care of our pets and would recommend him.”
“Elise stayed at my place for five days to watch my cat. She was very responsive to my questions throughout my trip. She also came by beforehand to meet my cat who is usually shy but he quickly warmed up to her. She took good care of him and left my place very clean. Would happily recommend her!”
“Dale is amazing! She's dependable, asks great questions in preparation, respected and took care of my place while she was here, sent photos of walks, was communicative about eating and toileting, and does a great job with working with Bentley even though he is leash reactive.”
“Alyson was great with my dogs and very kind to help me with a last minute sitting job that I needed to coordinate with her and another sitter. It worked out perfectly and my dogs loved her !”
“I wish I could give Emma more than five stars. She really blew away our expectations. She was faced with a tough task, 2 full weeks at our house with our 3 dogs. I was so nervous but she sent me pictures every day that really helped me relax. She handled everything with no problems, and took care of our house too. When we came home, the dogs were happy and healthy. The house was spotless. Even the bedding was clean. She is such an easy person to work with. 10 stars!!”
About: Hi, I’m Star! ⭐️ I’ve spent years caring for my own pets and helping out with friends’ pets when needed. I know every animal has a different personality, and I love getting to know what makes them happy. Whether that’s walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or just hanging out together, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a pet owner myself. For walks or drop-ins, I’m available any day of the week, with morning availability on weekdays and a flexible schedule on weekends. I currently accept shorter housesitting stays and am happy to discuss longer bookings on a case-by-case basis. I’ll follow any instructions you leave for feeding, medications, routines, and anything else your pet needs. I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine.
“Shana was super attentive and kept me well informed of all the goings on with the pups while I was away. She did an excellent job with their semi-complicated schedules and some ongoing medical needs. I really appreciated all the adorable photos she sent too. Would definitely book with Shana again!”
About: I've been around cats and dogs most of my life and have a deep love and affection for them. As well, I recently started volunteering at Seattle Humane. I'm currently doing this part time, so I'm pretty flexible on availability on weekdays between Monday-Thursday. Though, for drop-ins, my clearest availability is between 8am-2pm. But again, I’m flexible. I can do overnights between 5pm-9am. I try to bring a calm, kind demeanor to the environment to put the cat(s) at ease; I will scoop the litter box, feed them, and if they show interest, play with them, and if not, I give them their space!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hunts Point is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hunts Point
🐾Liane was a PERFECT house sitter for our four pets🐾 We could tell from the way she followed our instructions on our pet’s routines, to being able to give pet medicine, to taking care of our elderly dog, keeping the house clean, and sending us cute updated photos. Could not recommend her more highly; book her now—you don’t need to look any further🐾
I will make this review very plain and simple. Ra is the BEST dog walker/house sitter I have ever used on Rover!! She went above and beyond my expectations which are very high when it comes to taking care of Howie while I am traveling. She was very caring and conscientious of Howie's needs. Howie is a friendly, high energy labradoodle that needs 2 walks per day. She is also an excellent pet photographer and took some amazing sunset pictures of Howie. She introduced Howie to a new playmate Sadie and brought her over to play with Howie in the backyard. Howie is a very picky eater and she suggested a new food topper for his meals which he loved! I would highly recommend Ra for any pet care needs!!
Angie took great care of my french bulldog puppy Remy! My flight home also was unexpectedly canceled at the last second, and she graciously extended her care—super flexible, so grateful. We’ll definitely contact Angie again the next time we need a dog sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hunts Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hunts Point on Rover is $61.05 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 8,284 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hunts Point. 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 Hunts Point 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 Hunts Point 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 Hunts Point 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
