“Our doggo loved spending the weekend with Annie! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of them adventuring! She was very patient with our dog’s anxious behavior when they first met and helped our dog feel at ease.”
“I highly recommend Leigh. She took amazing care of my elderly dog. Leigh sends a lot pictures to see your animals day. She left the house near and tidy, she even took my garbage out to the curb without me asking. She is wonderful!”
“Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.”
“Laura took care of our fur babies (dog and cat) like they were her own! She was extra attentive and extremely communicative especially related to some potential health issues with one of our pets. She stayed at our house and left it in excellent condition!”
“My cat liked Libby from the start. He even brought her a present! ;) I had total peace of mind while traveling. She fed my fish and sent me a picture of my fish too! Great guest who respects your place and sweet and kind to your animals.”
About: I have had dogs and all sorts of pets in my house my whole life. I have experience with dogs of all types and ages from training puppies only a couple months old to caring for very old dogs. I constantly take care of neighbors and friends dogs when they’re away and I can’t wait to love on yours as well. 💗 I am a rising senior student-athlete at WCU and have a good amount of during the day most days to walk dogs as well as plenty of time most weekends to dog sit/house sit. I always keep on eye on the pet and in the same room as me if dog/housesitting. I give them plenty of love and attention and let them out and for walks whenever needed and instructed. I will love each and every pet I work with as my own!
“Abigail was a great sitter for my pups! She was super communicative during her stay and ensured they were well taken care of and happy. My girl dog is very hyperactive and she was able to handle her very well! I'd recommend her for your dog sitting needs :)”
“Matt was kind considerate and communicated well. When he had questions he asked and took care of our puppy very well. We felt he left our home exactly the way that we left it and treated it with respect. Matt was caring toward our puppy and provided her with exceptional care.”
“Angela was so wonderful! She stayed at my house for 5 days with my two dogs and cat and I truly was able to relax while I was away knowing they were in such good hands. She sent regular updates and pictures and was super responsive when I checked in. Would absolutely recommend Angela!”
“Amelie truly came in clutch when another dog sitter canceled 5 days before my trip. I couldn't have asked for a better person! She was amazing with my HUGE grumpy older dog and my HYPER younger 2 year old...and did I mention they are Rotties?!! She was amazing from start to finish. This is truly the first time I came home from a trip and the dogs seemed well loved and taken care of, no anxiety from them at all. Thanks, Amelie! Rover friends, look no further and book her now...just not when I need her ; )”

I have a good amount of time to care for your furry friends as I am doing a job pivot. Please reach out. I look forward to meeting your little friends! My fur babies are exactly that, my babies. So, they have free “run” of the house under close supervision, of course. Their comfort is just as important as mine.
About: I have been working with dogs for many years; I often worked with the needy dogs at my local shelter when they needed someone to keep them company with.

I am happy to accommodate your schedule needs in order to take the best care of your pet. I will make sure that your pet feels safe and at ease when I am over to watch them. I pride myself on being a safe space for them to coexist with me.
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, from cats to dogs. I love animals with my whole heart and love being around them! I have watched my family and families friends pets. I am currently enrolled at West Chester University so pet care can fit into my weekly routine after my classes are over which is usually around mid day. Pet care can also fit into my weekly routine when I am not working at my part time job. In my clients home I will make sure I have an eye on the pet at all times and make sure they get everything they need. While also making sure they have a fun time with extra snuggles!
About: I have had pets in my home since I was born, and currently have a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old back at home with my mom now. I fostered a pup from ACCT Philly for a few months, volunteered at the Humane Society, and often dog-sit for friends/ family. I have class every day for 1-3 hours, but I am open anytime outside of my class hours and have a super flexible, accommodating schedule. I follow their request and expectation for how their dog is to be treated and cared for, while giving them appropriate attention and exercise. I ensure I am present to care for the dog and ensure all their needs are met.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and absolutely love caring for animals! 🐾 I currently work at the University of Pennsylvania’s Ryan Veterinary Hospital, and my father is a critical care veterinary nurse, so animals and veterinary care have always been a big part of my life. I’m responsible, caring, and will treat your pets like my own! ❤️ I am currently available on weekends and Mondays and Fridays! I have availability Tuesday - Thursday after 6:30pm. I do have a full time job at UPenn’s Veterinary Hospital which is why my availability is limited Tuesday - Thursday. I unfortunately cannot care for pets in my home, as I have two cats of my own. I have no problem coming to your home and following any specific rules you may have for your own fur baby.

I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re safe and well cared for.
“Lauren is fantastic. My kitty sitter fell through at the last moment, so I was pretty stuck. Lauren responded quickly, stopped by for a visit on the same day, and kept me informed about Scuba during my entire trip. Every picture she shared reassured me that he was content and well taken care of, and he seemed to warm up to Lauren quickly. I'll definitely hire her again!”
About: I love all types of animals, and I always have. I have been taking care of my dogs as much as I can for the past three years. I have taken care of my family members and friends' dogs for a while. They think of me first because I am caring, considerate, and I can't say no to a cute, fluffy face. I am good at controlling behavior on walks, food-motivated tasks, and getting them to trust me. I hope you will trust me with your pets. I just got done with my 2nd year of college, so I will have plenty of time now to hang out with your animals! I am available any time of day for however long you need me to keep your pet happy. I have a decent-sized yard with a fence, I will keep a close eye on them the whole time, I can crate them if necessary, and I have reliable transportation at any time of day.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hyllwynd
Angela is hands-down the best pet sitter we have ever had! She stayed at our house for 9 days while we were out of the country, and we were able to fully relax knowing our dog, Bear, was in the absolute best hands. She truly treated Bear like a member of her own family. To top it all off, we came home to the cutest note and beautiful flowers. Angela is amazing, professional, and genuinely cares. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier pet care!
Alec has watched my dog, Trace, at my house twice and has been a great sitter both times. He was able to show up 3 times a day to let Trace out and feed him. He took him on walks every time and provided timely updates with pictures. I would recommend Alec for any dogsitting needs and will definitely look to him in the future!
I learned about Richardo through a trusted source where he came highly recommended (rescue organization I foster for), and have used him twice for several days each time. The bottom line is that he is fantastic with dogs and I highly recommend him!! And I am picky! My dogs need to be with someone I like and trust. I have a somewhat older German Shepard rescue who is fearful of some people and things. My second dog is a young I’d say “spirited” Golden Retriever. He gets both of them. My German Shepard likes Richardo and warmed up to him immediately, which means everything. My dogs were clearly happy while I was gone and I could tell also when I came home. For example, this past week the wild fires in Canada affected the area so they had to be inside. He kept them busy with toys, etc. He communicates well too, which is important to all of us. I highly recommend Richardo!
She did an excellent job. The house was clean and everything was put back properly. I think Doc had a good time. He seemed happy to see us, but he was doing well. We really appreciate the job that she did. We were away for two weeks and had a very nice vacation. She sent us pictures. We will definitely use her again.
Gabrielle went above and beyond to take care of our senior dog, who needs a little extra t.l.c. due to illness and anxiety. She was very responsive and responsible and kept us updated and reassured while we were away. She not only took excellent care of our dog, but also kept our home clean and neat and left everything better than she found it. We highly recommend Gabrielle and will not hesitate to hire her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hyllwynd
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hyllwynd on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,208 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hyllwynd. 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 Hyllwynd 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 Hyllwynd 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 Hyllwynd 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.
