“Katie was great! Super responsible and so good with Betty. Kept me updated with pics and Betty seemed comfortable with her right away. Will definitely request Katie again!”
“Casey took great care of our dog and home! Our dog seemed very happy and the house was spotless when we returned! We will definitely be asking Casey to take care of her in the future!”
“Rev was the most responsive, caring and thoughtful caring person! She sent us many, many pictures with updates throughout the days we were away and went out of her way to coordinate with our families as I had undergone an emergency surgery and couldn’t make it back in time. Simply put, Rev is the bestest!!”
“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!”
“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!!!!!”
“Once again, Amy took such good care of our elderly cat, administering medications and providing ample pets and cuddles. She left our home clean and tidy. We came home to a happy, healthy cat.”
“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!”
“Angie is the best ever!! Not only is she amazing with my puppy, but she also takes the best care of my space and I come home to a well taken care of pup and a spotless apartment! She also constantly keeps me updated throughout her stay which is amazing :)”
“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 :)”
“Chloe did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our two dogs (Nala, a one year old golden retriever and Maui, an almost six year old, lab mix) while we were away. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with handling pets. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for. One thing that really stood out was how quickly our dog Maui—who is usually very picky about people—gravitated toward her right away. That alone spoke volumes about Chloe’s calm, trustworthy presence and natural connection with animals. It’s obvious that Chloe genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and she treated ours like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter. We are already thinking about leaving again so the dogs can hang out with Chloe.”
“Cynthia made this past week so easy on us! Our dog is in the late stages of cancer and Cynthia was so good about adjusting to our pup's interests and needs often spending awhile with her outside and adapting to her health needs on bathroom breaks. She even left us with a special jar of treats for our pup. We got many photos and videos throughout the day which always makes us feel better about leaving her at home. Communication was fantastic and will definitely be rebooking.”
“Leonardo was excellent! He was super communicative and very sensitive to our pup who can be a bit nervous especially with fireworks. He left our house just as he found it. We would definitely recommend him and book again! Thank you.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have over 20 years of hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I’m a full-time Bioengineering student, but I carefully manage my schedule to make time for pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m available on evenings, weekends, and during many daytime hours between classes. I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I keep a clean, calm, and secure environment, and I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and lots of affection. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Meeting Emily was a relief after our other pet sitter fell through in the days leading up to our trip. Emily was willing to do a last minute meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions about caring for our dogs and cats. She was communicative and our pets seemed to enjoy her presence. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Mokeisha was an excellent sitter. She was incredibly responsive, and I felt completely confident that my dogs were in great hands while I was away. She checked in throughout the day with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. With freezing temperatures outside, she was especially attentive to making sure the dogs were safe and comfortable during outdoor time. They were clearly spoiled with attention, cuddles, and treats while in her care. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Mokeisha again and absolutely plan to do so.”
“Bridget is an amazing dog sitter. She is extremely communicative, sending us lovely updates and photos. Our dog, Cassia, had a such a fun time with Bridget filled with walks and cuddles! We all can't wait for Bridget to come back again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have walked them for two years. I make sure they have a safe fun time. My schedule is pretty open so I am guaranteed to make sure your pet is well taken care of and having a fun safe time. In clients home I make sure that gates are closed to backyard. Make sure they aren’t getting into anything they aren’t supposed to be in.
“Caitlin was super responsive and watched our dog on short notice. She sent pictures throughout the day and took great care of our dog and our home! We would highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hyde Park
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.
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.
Another 5-Star review for Yanira. Yanira is the best of the best. We have used her many times to dog sit our sheltie, Pepper, and she has always provided outstanding care. Our instructions are always followed, photos and updates are sent regularly, and our house is left immaculate when we return. We have complete peace of mind knowing Pepper is in such loving and reliable hands. Yanira is wonderful, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. She is highly recommended to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Yanira.

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 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 6,797 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hyde Park. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
