“Juliette was fantastic! She stayed at our home with our dog for the weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept us updated throughout her stay with messages and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. He looked so happy and comfortable in every update, and it was clear that Juliette took wonderful care of him. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a great overall experience. We would absolutely book with Juliette again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter.”

I received daily updates and photos that made it clear Kaya was well attended to and completely comfortable with them, and I came home to a spotless apartment. It was obvious from the updates that Kaya was being her usual snuggly self, which is the best endorsement of all. Morgan and Meaghan would be top of my list to stay with Kaya again!”

“Katherine was a rockstar from start to finish. We just moved to the area, and so we had to find a new sitter for our cat, Moose. Moose absolutely loved Katherine and warmed up to her within minutes. He was playing with her on day 1, and it took prior sitters multiple visits before he even thought of touching a toy. Katherine gave multiple photo and video updates during her visit, and was super communicative of any issues. She stayed overnight and treated our home as her own. We will definitely be asking her to sit for Moose again!”

About: I have done a lot of animal sitting since I was in high school looking after my nieghbors dogs and cats when they were away. I am a huge animal lover but I am best with dogs and cats. Before I went to college my nieghbor had just bought a puppy and we had just got a cat, I trained the cat and I did most of the dog walking for the puppy. Being able to play and care for animals is the best job I can think of. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I would love to be able to work with familiar clients and their animals. I provide over night pet sitting services, dog or cat walking, and drop in’s. I can take care of your fur babies Friday to Monday, for anything outside that time I may have availability, so just ask! I work a full time job 8am-4:30pm Monday to Friday. I typically go off the rules you lay out for your pet along with their usual routine. I want to make things as easy as possible for you and your pet. If you have a list of dietary restrictions or medication they need to take, I’m happy to learn as well as get them the care they need. If they have a specific dinner or walk time, I want to make sure I stick to it for you.

About: I understand how different each pet can be from playful puppies to calm seniors. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to routines, whether that’s feeding, playtime, or just giving extra cuddles. I treat every pet like my own and always keep you updated so you feel comfortable while you’re away. As a pet owner, I’m used to daily care routines like feeding, cleaning, and attention. My hybrid work schedule gives me the flexibility to provide reliable, consistent care, including walks, visits, and check-ins. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications if needed. I keep spaces clean and provide a safe, calm, and stress free environment in any home.

About: I’ve always had a dog in my life since I was born. I’ve been taking care of them for about as long as I can remember, whether they’re mine or a family/friend’s. I’ve trained my dogs and taken care of all sorts of age ranges, from puppies to 13+ year old dogs. I volunteer part-time so when I’m not volunteering, I try to take the time to do pet care. Since I have the free time, I’m doing it frequently. I have experience taking care of all kinds of dogs. I’ve given dogs meds, I’ve dealt with super hyper dogs that need to be walked for 2 hours to calm down.

About: I'm relatively new to dog care, although I've been around them my entire life. At the moment I'm often tapped to walk, check in on, or stay with my girlfriends lab/hound mix who's 10 years old but thinks he's a puppy. What's important to me is that your dog is safe and happy and I pride myself on being communicative (before, during, and after) and paying extra attention to cleanliness. I work full time not far from where I live so nights or weekends are better for me. That being said, my schedule can be flexible and I can make things work during the day if needed! I am a neat freak by nature and will be uber respective of your home/property, making sure to extra clean up after your pet and my presence (of which there should be no trail!). Safety is the number one priority because when you're away you want to be sure your pet is in good hands.

Sarah took care of my girls for the second time today, and once again she did an amazing job! I was away all day, so having someone I trust to walk them, feed them, and make sure they were well taken care of was such a blessing. When I got home, they were happy, relaxed, and had already eaten and enjoyed their walks. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they are in such good hands while I’m away. Sarah is very caring, reliable, and attentive. I’m truly grateful for the way she takes care of my girls, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hyde Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Hyde Park on Rover is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $108 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,644 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work 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:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
