“Amber was absolutely amazing with Ghosty! She went above and beyond to make sure she was well cared for and happy. She was incredibly caring, flexible, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. When my power went out unexpectedly, she even came back to make sure Ghosty was okay, which meant so much to me. She also sent regular photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I can't recommend Amber enough. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly dedicated to caring for your pet, she's the perfect choice!”
“Katelyn watched my English Bulldog and Chocolate Lab while I was on vacation for several days. She took great care of my fur babies. She fed them, walked them, let them out several times, and gave them loves and pets. She sent good notes and several pictures and videos throughout the stay.”
“As first time Rover users, Meghan completely put our worries at ease and took the best care of our fur babies during the weekend of our wedding. I loved getting my picture updates of the pups knowing they were in the comforts of their familiar surroundings being cared for by somebody that knew what they were doing instead of being in a high stress environment. The dogs loved her too! We will 100% be using Meghan again in the future when we go on our honeymoon.”
“Emma was AMAZING! 3 Great Danes and she handled their clumsy-ness and lap dog tenancies without a hitch. My stupid dogs ran off to the neighbors house and had an incident with the neighbor dog. She handled the situation perfectly and kept my dogs, the neighbor and their dog, and myself feeling safe about the incident the rest of booking. When I got home and apologized again to my neighbor, they said that Emma did great the whole time and were impressed with the way she handled things. 10/10 would recommend Emma!!”
“Emma was absolutely fantastic with our large dogs! They are a bit high maintenance in their own ways but they were taken care of perfectly! Will absolutely be booking again in the future!”
“Megan was wonderful! She spent a lot of time with our girls and showered them with affection. We received many photos and videos of them playing and relaxing outside, which ensured us they were doing fine. She even vacuumed and picked up before she left. Would definitely schedule with her again and highly recommend her.”
“Sam took excellent care of my dogs and home. I was happy to get pics and updates, as well as to come home to a clean house. He even washed the bedsheets ? I recommend Sam for both house and pet sitting!”
“Courtney iwas absolutely fantastic with not just one dog, but THREE. She was available last minute, and was able to accommodate two extra dogs. She was invested in their safety, followed all instructions to a t, took the dogs on walks, and sent videos and photos to keep me updated. I will definitely be using Courtney again!”
“We have a 4 year old terrier mix, a Dachshund and an Boxer who are both 8, and a 12-year old Chihuahua-Dachshund mix who is very nervous and afraid of just about everyone but myself and my husband. We've not been comfortable boarding them for a few years now, so have not really been able to go away overnight unless a close friend or family member was available to sit with them. That's all changed now, thanks to Jeremy! A friend had recommended Rover.com, so we read through hundreds of reviews for dozens of sitters, and Jeremy sounded like the best fit. We booked a couple of house visits and then an overnight house-sitting. He was great in general, and absolutely amazing with our little frightened girl. He was so patient and made extra effort to make her feel comfortable around him, and in no time she had warmed to him more than she has with most of the family members she's had contact with for years! Jeremy sent frequent texts and photos while we were away so we could see just how they were all getting along. We were comfortable we'd left our babies in good hands, and were actually able to relax and enjoy our time away. We will definitely be booking with Jeremy again in the future! Thank you, Jeremy!”
“Bella was a great communicator, did a wonderful job watching our two dogs. She left the house in perfect condition after house sitting for 4 nights. She even did the laundry and cleaned up when one of our dogs had an accident on the couch. She was wonderful!”
“Wow! What can I say? Margaret exceeded every expectation I had for Uecker’s care today! As a new puppy mom who’s only had him for three weeks, leaving him with someone for the first time was a little nerve-wracking. But Margaret made me feel completely at ease. She didn’t just watch him—she played with him, loved on him, reinforced the commands we’ve been working on, and treated him like he was her own. The best part? Walking through the door and finding Uecker snuggled up right next to her. My heart absolutely melted. It was obvious he felt safe, loved, and completely comfortable. I truly couldn’t be happier with the care Margaret provided. Book her before I do, because with my busy schedule, I’ll definitely be calling her again! Thank you so much, Margaret. Uecker already adores you, and so do I!”
“Joseph was great! Our dog Rudy has many health issues and a lot of attention with his medications. He did a great job giving him his meds. He was also great with texting us and sending us pictures.”
“I am an anxious cat mom and leaving my babies even for a few days is always rough for me. Finding a trustworthy sitter is VERY important to me and from the moment I met Stephanie I knew she would take excellent care of my babies. She sent me many photos every day and I loved seeing them happy in her care. She treated them like her own and slept with them every night. Stephanie is thoughtful, communicative, responsible and you can tell she has a genuine love of animals. I will 100% book her again for any pet care service. I can’t recommend her enough to take care of your babies because she took exceptional care of mine!!!”
“Our Chunks loved hanging out with Rowan! He got lots of excersize, love, and play time and is now sleeping peacefully because he had so much fun! Definitely will be using her again!”
“Lensy was great with our dogs! They’re both special dogs - have some allergies and take medications, and she did great meeting their needs. She sent us updates and pictures and they had a great time with her!”
“Sophia took wonderful care of our puppy & house while we were out of town for a long weekend. She provided frequent updates with pictures that we treasured! Our pup loved spending time with her & all the walks & attention. We felt so secure in knowing our pup was having such a great time with Sophia!”
“Dominique completed his second house sit for my two pups (6 nights) and we continue to endorse him as a qualified / reliable sitter! Communication again proved to be consistent. Water bowls were full and my house was just how I left it. My large dogs are prone to acting out if they do not get enough attention (especially over long periods). It was great coming home and not seeing any indication of unsatisfied pups. Fully recommend!”
About: I am an animal lover and will take great care of your pet. I have experience owning dogs and currently own a 5 year old Doberman Pinscher named Moon. I am extremely active and love to take dogs on walks, to the park to play and outside to get fresh air. Having experience volunteering at the humane society, I am aware of different pet personalities and cautious of their well-being and comfort. I will honor the owner's rules and routines in order to make the experience positive for all parties involved. I live in an area great for walking dogs and running them with toys. If the pet needs extra attention or additional exercise, I will be able to accommodate with my flexible work schedule. Thanks!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hustisford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 385 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hustisford. 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 Hustisford 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 Hustisford 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 Hustisford 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 Hustisford. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
