“Patricia was absolutely amazing with my two boys. Bentley is quite the trouble maker and she was great with him. I loved the updates and pictures she sent me, it put my heart at ease. Very professional and great person. Came home to a clean house. I would definitely recommend her and I would have her watch my two boys again.”
About: I'm a tidy introvert and dual citizen that loves to spend time with all kinds of animals. I have experience with pet sitting and dog walking and am happiest when hanging out with pets. I work remotely and I'm a homebody that will always be around for playtime. I love animals and the peace and calm that comes with pet sitting. I work remotely and I find myself with gaps of time that I very much enjoy spending my time with animals. I typically have open availability for pets sits and they are my favorite way to spend time with animals. I have pattern recognition and attention to detail. I have been pet sitting for awhile and am accustomed to adapting to many types of situations. I enjoy the presence and calm that comes with sitting and learning about the different personalities that come with taking care of animals.
“Zoe was able to watch Ardbeg for a weekend getaway - jumping in on very short notice. She took fantastic care of Ardbeg and kept us updated with lots of cute photos. We can tell that he had a fabulous time!”
“Alex and Kori took great care of Macie while we were away! Macie loved the attention and the house was well taken care of. We got regular updates so that we never had to worry. Highly recommend!”
About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life, as well as other animals like horses, poultry, cows, goats, sheep, etc. I look forward to getting to know your pet and helping you to make life a little easier. I'm currently working from home with a flexible schedule, so can make most schedules work, and nearly all schedules work with at least a little notice. I have a sweet medium sized dog named Missy who gets along with most dogs and loves to play, but cannot have cats in my home with her. We have a small, but well fenced in (6 foot wooden) back yard and dog door for easy in and out. There is a park just a couple of blocks away, and the neighborhood is great for dog walks.
About: My senior dog, River, crossed the rainbow bridge in February 2026, just shy of his 15th birthday. He was my soul dog and taught me so much about dogs, companionship, and myself. While I’m not able to have a dog of my own right now, I still have a huge amount of love and compassion for animals, and I get my dog and cat fix through the wonderful pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I believe dogs and cats are part of the family, and I know firsthand how much they mean to us. When your pet is in my care, they’ll be treated with the same patience, attention, and affection I’d want for my own. I occasionally care for neighbors’ dogs and cats, including pets with specific medication routines. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure medications, feeding, exercise, and other routines are followed consistently. I currently work part-time in a remote role, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m happy to work around each pet’s normal routine, whether they need regular activity and playtime or simply someone around to keep them company. I have a fully fenced yard with a closable doggie door, giving dogs the option to go outside and come back in as they please. There are no other animals living in my home, and I can keep my yard private if your dog prefers their own space. I do have two friendly neighborhood dogs who occasionally visit, but I’m happy to keep them separate when needed. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routines as closely as possible. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where your pet can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Ellie makes our trips so seamless. She sends lots of photos, seems to genuinely love pet sitting, and is respectful and responsible in our home! She’s our top choice!”
“Chelsea was awesome! I felt very comfortable with her helping out with my hurt senior dog. She is very knowledgeable and gives good advice. She was so kind and easy to communicate with.”
“Alex was great at sending us photos of both of our petsamd staying in communication with is while we were away - it was our first time using Rover and Alex did a great job reassuring our concerns. our pets were happy and looked great when we returned from our vacation.”
About: I grew up with family and neighbors’ dogs my entire childhood. From a very young age I was taught how to responsibly take care of dogs, including potty training puppies. I was the go-to dog/house-sitter whenever our neighbors went on vacation. I am ALWAYS happy to meet and give love to new dogs! I am not currently working and have few limitations on my availability. I am available mornings, afternoons, nights and weekends to take your dog(s) on walks or keep them company while you are working or out of town. I will treat your home and dog(s) with the upmost respect. I will take all instructions and advise from the homeowners serious and provide the best care possible for the pet and owners.
“Lila was great for our last-minute weekend getaway. She was communicative and kept the dogs alive for the overnight, which means she passed the test! Would recommend.”
“Taylor took amazing care of our pups and sent daily pics and videos of them! He also was a wonderful house guest, and even washed our guest sheets and towels. We would happily have him come stay and care for the dogs again anytime!”
“Gwen is amazing!! She took great care of our Beatrice. She also has experience with bully breeds. She kept us updated on Bea as well as the house. We would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Sarah was amazing with my boy! He’s an older dog and when I had a sudden work trip come up, Sarah was able to jump in and care for him like her own. She communicates very well and I really appreciated the daily photos and follow up while I was away. Sarah is a ln absolute gem.”
“We are SO happy we booked with Katie. She was responsive, sent loadddss of pictures, and our dogs LOVED her. Also, our house was in the same condition we left it in. We will definitely be asking Katie to house and dog sit for us again.”
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, birds, horses, reptiles, and exotic animals. I also volunteered at a wildlife sanctuary, where I worked with horses and a variety of exotic species. That experience taught me how to understand animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, attentive care. I know every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, playtime, or simply sticking to their daily schedule, I’ll treat them with kindness, patience, and the same level of care I’d want for my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I recently graduated from high school and currently have an open, flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Because pet sitting is my primary focus right now, I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, overnight, and weekend visits. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so I can help them feel comfortable and keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away. In your home, I’ll respect your space, keep it clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and doing well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hygiene
Arianna was very responsive from the first inquiry! She watched our dog for 9 nights. I heard from her daily and she was very good at communicating any concerns she had about our pup. He’s a bit of an oddball so he has a few quirks that are not normal. He loved his time with her. We’ll be asking Arianna to house sit again the next time we need it!
Amanda did an amazing job taking care of my dog over a long weekend. She sent great updates and photos, and spent lots of time with my dog to make sure she got the attention and exercise she needed. She took great care of my house as well and kept everything very clean!
Leilani has stayed at our home three times this summer, caring for our two dogs and cat. They love her! She has great communication (photos/videos, check-ins) and clearly enjoys her time with our pets. We will continue to request Leilani for any of our pet care needs.
Kelsey did a marvelous job taking care of our dog and our home. She was very kind to Cooper and went above and beyond to take her on special treat, walks and swims. The communication was great. Very easy working with Kelsey. I would highly recommend her for your dog and Home sitting needs. Thank you so much, Kelsey!
Jessica stayed with my lab Wally for 4 days over the holidays. We had JUST moved here a few days prior and it was wonderful to meet her and feel very confident and calm about her staying with Wally for that time. He was very well cared for & loved, as was my home. I highly recommend Jessica and will use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Hygiene is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $78 per night.

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 Hygiene 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 Hygiene 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 Hygiene 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
