“Victoria (Rev) did a fantastic job and I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. She was easy to communicate with prior to & during her stay and sent frequent updates and pictures of the pups. She stayed in my home & left it very clean- She even took out the trash which I didn’t expect her to do annd appreciated. My pups are kind of high maintenance (2 Maltese) & Rev did a fantastic job taking care of them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic sitter and considerate homestay. She took great care of my two cats (and my home), and they really liked her based on the numerous pictures she sent where it appeared they were following her around, and not just to the wet food. What's more, Marilyn goes above and beyond. When I left for my trip and Marilyn was to begin residency the following day, my neighbor texted me and showed me that there was a window situation where a cat could escape. Even though her duty started the next day, Marilyn made a special trip to confirm cats were safe, and to fix the window situation. She even washed the bedding and towels I had left her so I wouldn't have to do it when I got home, and she generously allowed my to book two more nights of her care when I wanted to extend my trip. Marilyn is very caring, considerate and flexible. I will definitely be requesting her services again. I recommend her highly as one of the best Rover caretakers I have encountered.”
“Sarah provided phenomenal house sitting care for our anxious dog. She was very reliable and responsive and calmed our nerves with multiple photos and updates throughout the week. Highly recommend!”
“Casey was super communicative, thoughtful, and attentive to details throughout the entire process. She genuinely cares about the dogs and it showed. Any dog parent understands the anxiety over leaving their babies with someone new - but Casey really pulled through and was so reliable! The dogs LOVED her. Thank you Casey. You're a gift!”
“Juliette was thoughtful, attentive, and attuned to my pet babies( a kitten and 1 year old dog). I would hire her again in a heartbeat. I enjoyed the daily photos abd updates and she was all around a lovely and compassionate person.”
“Jainah was wonderful with my needy pup Xie Xie and took great care to make sure he ate. She hand fed him with out my asking! I was updated on walks and her care and couldn’t be more grateful!”
“Lindsay took such great care of my cat Naomi! She was extremely professional and responsive, and she was so helpful even with some very last minute changes/housesitting needs that I was stressing over. Also had no trouble administering Naomi’s medication and was so attentive to her daily routine. I really appreciated all the detailed updates and cat pics!! I would happily have her catsit for us again :)”
“If we could give Yanira 10 shining stars, we would! Yanira took exceptional care of our sheltie Pepper in our home. Yanira arrived on time, which we appreciated since we had a plane to catch. Yanira sent regular updates and photos, and when we returned from our trip, Pepper was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Our house, BTW, was immaculate. Yanira has our highest recommendations, and we will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Yanira!!!!!”
“Ailise did a wonderful job housesitting with my cavapoo Freddie over the long weekend! She sent great updates, videos, and photos of my boy, and I felt confident that he was safe in her care. She left my apartment in great condition. I highly recommend Ailise and would definitely book with her again! Thank you :)”
“Claudia watched Nora for a weekend and made us feel completely comfortable! Nora is a puppy and needs a ton of attention. Claudia kept us up to date (tons of pics) and made us confident Nora was being well taken care of. We will definitely book again!”
About: I follow the guidelines of the owner. I am "present" (not distracted) with the dog. I am consistent and caring. I am very aware of the dog's behavior in the range of other pets and people, and adjust our path and pace accordingly. I am recently retired and my scheduled is flexible between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. unless I have scheduled time on the water to sail. Currently, I walked my neighbors dog. When I enter, I am careful to close the door immediately and take time to greet the dog (Mazie, female). I am attentive to details when putting on her harness for both security and comfort. While walking, I follow the instructions of the owner relative to the proximity of other dogs since Mazie is a rescue and can become agitated by other dogs. Maize heels very well for me while we walk and I believe she appreciates that I do not listen to music or use my phone while we walk. I converse with Mazie to ensure she feels companionship as well as experiences exercise.
“Otis, who can be slow to warm up to people sometimes, clearly loved his time with Katie right off the bat. It was a huge weight lifted off our shoulders to know he was in such good hands while we were unreachable in remote Canada.”
“Belen was kind and patient with our dogs. First time we ever had someone take care of our pups and we felt completely confident and comfortable that they were in the best hands!”
“Isis was so attentive and left such detailed and thoughtful messages for us. Our dog got sick in the middle of the night and she handled it, cleaned it, and let us know what happened in a timely manner. She even then changed our dog's breakfast to help their tummy. We will definitely be asking Isis back 🧡”
About: I've been caring and taking care of many different furry friends over last 4 years. They vary from energetic cavalier, less than a year old, to a 12 year old pekinies with lot of medications. Every lovely souls are welcomed at our house! Let's have fun! I am a freelance designer who work remotely. My working hour is less than 3 hours each day at my desk, I always feel loved and peaceful with pet friends near me ! We do have decently spaced, semi- fenced yard right outside our door. Our house is around 850 sqf with lots of characters. We share every single furniture with our furry guests, including the bed. Thank you!
“Donna did a good job taking care of Tashi under fairly difficult circumstances, including a snowstorm and a dog who was reluctant to cooperate at first. She sent pictures every day and kept us updated on how he was doing. Will use Donna again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hyde Park
Al is amazing! She house sat for us for 4 nights/5 days, and she took wonderful care of our home and our 3.5-month-old beagle puppy. We set up a meet-and-greet with Al a few weeks before her stay, and we knew we would be in good hands from the moment we met her. Our puppy instantly gravitated towards her, too, and enjoyed playing with her and snuggling with her. Al was communicative throughout her entire stay at our house, sharing text and photo updates with us each day. She’s fun, caring and responsible, and we’re so grateful we found her. We highly recommend her!
Lindsay took such great care of my cat Naomi! She was extremely professional and responsive, and she was so helpful even with some very last minute changes/housesitting needs that I was stressing over. Also had no trouble administering Naomi’s medication and was so attentive to her daily routine. I really appreciated all the detailed updates and cat pics!! I would happily have her catsit for us again :)
Sarah was fantastic. She took Luna on fun adventures, gave her lots of attention, and made sure she was well cared for the entire time. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our Luna was happy, active, and loved. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter.
We had a great experience with Jess! She stayed with our cats for two weeks and was very responsive and communicative throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She took great care of both our home and our cats, and they were happy and relaxed when we returned. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in the future.
Eleanor diligently cared for my cat while I was away for a few days, so that when I returned, my cat was happy to see me without being starved of the love she had needed! I appreciated the photos Eleanor sent, and the care and love Eleanor provided. Eleanor even cleaned up a hairball at one point! My cat's current comfort upon my return shows Eleanor helped my cat feel secure, cared for, and safe.
I was so glad that Madison was available to watch our dog Molly for our past trip. It was the longest we've ever left her with a sitter which made me nervous but knowing Madison was going to be there with her eased all my worries. She kept us updated on Molly's everyday routine and any issues that arose. We feel so lucky to have her as a regular sitter! :)
Belkis is fantastic! We were so grateful to find her last minute! She was incredibly helpful, reliable, and took such great care of our pup while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals, and we’d absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Katie did a wonderful job, taking care of our (very anxious) dog and two cats while we were gone for the weekend. She met with us the week before to go over all the information and she was great sending pictures/videos while we were gone. We returned home to a house that was cleaner than we left it, which is always a wonderful surprise. I would not hesitate to have Katie care for our crew again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hyde Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hyde Park on Rover is $58.85 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 6,734 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hyde Park. 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 Hyde Park 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 Hyde Park 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 Hyde Park 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.
