“Stacie was great with our 3 weens. We met before leaving for our trip to go over everything. She was attentive and sweet to our babies. Always sent us update photos without prompting. She left our house very tidy. She even made sure to stop by and feed our babies and spend time with them a few hours before we arrived home. We had complete peace of mind when we were in a different country that our weens were in good hands.”
“Kayleigh is easy to work with and clearly and knowledgeable pet sitter and genuine pet lover. Our dog Miley was very anxious during our house sitting booking which made it tough on Kayleigh to get her to go out and stick to her regular routine. Kayleigh communicated every step of the way to give us updates and allowed me to give feedback and suggestions on what to try to make Miley more comfortable. Greatly appreciated Kayleigh’s effort and communication. We’d book with Kayleigh again. Thanks!”
“Whitney was so great! When my flight was delayed by 10 hours she was so kind and extremely helpful with staying longer with my dog. She’s the best!”
“Janaah was wonderful, I felt very comfortable leaving my dog Willow for several days and nights!!--Janaah is very kind and tolerant of "special needs" pets and medications --my senior dog was terrific when I got back--not stressed or having any issues whatsoever !!”
“Marissa is so great! She was flexible when my travel arrangements got delayed and sent me lots of pictures of my fur baby. She is very responsive and overall, great to work with!”
“We just came home after leaving our dogs with Nora for the first time, and I can say it was an overall great experience. She communicated well and quickly, followed our detailed instructions, kept great care of our dogs, and left our home in immaculate condition. She was reliable, trustworthy, and had a positive impact on our dogs' well-being. I was a little nervous as it was the first time we had worked with her. She sent a pic of the dogs with her the first evening that put me totally at ease. Highly recommend. - Mike”
About: People call me the baby and animal whisperer! Lol♥️ I love dogs, animals and children as they bring me such joy and love. I'm very reliable and trustworthy as my availability and resources are very convenient ♥️🥰❤️ I am a substitute teacher looking for summer work 🥰 I have had many dogs in my lifetime that I have owned and doggysat ♥️ I have a fenced yard and live in a very pet friendly downtown area with lots of parks and pet lovers who take care of our pets around here 🥰
“Samantha was Fabulous!! It was like having a Family member be at our home and watch the dogs. She arrived promptly, and the dogs took to her instantly, so did I! We have two large older dogs, and my daughter's 4 year old, diabetic dog were at our house so we could go out to dinner. With her background in emergency care, she clearly understood giving insulin. Our usually aloof male Lab, planted himself on the couch to be next to her, a doggie thumbs up! Throughout the evening, she sent pictures, and kept us abreast of what they were doing, and where they settled in. It was nice to be able to go out with the whole family and not be worried about what they dogs were up to, or if their needs were being met. We have already booked her for our larger Group outing for the Holidays...Samantha is a gem!”
About: I've taken care of houses and pets since I was in high school, usually for families I would also babysit for. I have experience with dogs as small as teacup pomeranians and as large as great Danes. I have also taken care of other pets such as cats, birds, fish, turtles, lizards, toads, snakes, hamsters, etc. Walking and exercise is something I love to do, if you do not live in an area that's good for walking I know of several dog parks as well. I do work full time however it is a hybrid position so I work from home 1 day a week. Meds, treats, brushing, all of which I am comfortable doing. I work a hybrid position so I work from home at least 1 day of the week. As long as I have internet access and you are comfortable with me working in your dining room I can be there all day. Or if you just need me to let your pet out during lunch hours I can do that as well. Days in which I work in office I would be able to care for your pet around 5:30 and later. Though I cannot board pets at this time, I am willing to stay in your home and make your pet as comfortable as possible. I have watched clingy and anxious pets as well who need me in the house 80% of the day. I also keep a safe and clean environment during each house sitting gig, your house will be left better than you left it.
“Ryan was great! She stayed with our "pups" (as she cutely called them) for almost a week. Right from the start she sent texts, photos, and a sense that all was under control. Meeting her before the stay both her experience as a student working towards going to vet school and as a horse owner sealed the deal. We'd happily use her again.”
“First time using Rover for our 1yo shepherd. Natalie was a strong communicator, timely, and reliable for an overnight stay in our home. Jax was walked both days for over 1 mile along with playtime. Would definitely use Natalie again!”
“Greg was a fantastic pet sitter. He stayed overnight in our home with our three small dogs during our vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was on time, great with communication, and consistently sent detailed updates and photos that kept us at ease. Our dogs loved him. Our senior dog with medical needs received extra patience and care. Greg followed every instruction, left our home immaculate, and went the extra mile to give each dog plenty of love. We’ll definitely be using him again in the future, and I recommend Greg to anyone looking in-home pet sitting.”
“Kira is wonderful with Peroni! She plays with him and keeps him engaged and communicates with me very well about how he’s doing during the day and overnight. Me and Peroni really appreciate her! :)”
“Valerie was such a wonderful long term house sitter for our pups! I can tell they absolutely loved their time with her from all the videos and photo updates she provided. She went above and beyond celebrating one of our pups gotcha days while we were gone and was great at communicating. I just love knowing they were well cared for while we were away!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, reliability, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know their individual needs and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient with young pets who are still learning and gentle with senior pets who may need extra time, medication, or special accommodations. I communicate regularly with pet owners by providing updates and photos, so they have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the highest level of care and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any medications they may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make their comfort and well-being a priority. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, weekends, or regular check-ins throughout the day, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while maintaining each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and the owner’s instructions. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, receive regular potty breaks, and get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also administer medications if instructed, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep the environment clean, safe, and comfortable. I respect each client’s home by keeping it tidy, following all care instructions, and providing updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“Great puppy sitter. Puppy seemed very happy and content when we came home. Followed all instructions. Our puppy actually was jumping on Karen when she was leaving and not us. Will definitely ask Karen again.”
“James did a great job watching our dog while we were overseas for two weeks. He took care of everything and went above and beyond, even cooking chicken for our dog who went on a hunger strike while we were gone. We were able to vacation without any worries, knowing that our pup was in good hands!”
“Danielle was amazing. She took such great care of our elderly dog Peter while we were away. This included Peter having a medical emergency and having to go to the vet which Danielle handled calmly and thoughtfully and she sent loads of pictures and videos which helped put our minds at ease. Peter seemed really happy to be with her at our house. I would wholeheartedly recommend Danielle as somebody who cares deeply about dogs and will look after your pet as if they were her own.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 4,985 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Juliustown. 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 Juliustown 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 Juliustown 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 Juliustown 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.
