“Tara was amazing! You could see right away how much experience she has with dogs and this put me at ease. She was flexible, reliable, and my dog warmed up to her immediately. This brought me such comfort for going away the weekend and I am so grateful!”


“Jessica was great! She provided daily updates of my dogs and sent pictures. My dogs seemed to love her. First time using rover and this was a fabulous experience! I highly recommend Jessica. She also brought in my packages, while I was away, which I appreciated. I’ll definitely use her in the future!”

“Kyle was fantastic with our puppy. He is very kind, calm, and built a great bond with her right away. Even though our puppy is still quite energetic, he handled her confidently and kept her well engaged. Communication was excellent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Lou was in great hands. Highly recommend! 🐾”


“Paige has house sat for our animals twice now, and she has been fantastic! The communication and care she gives them has always been a huge relief when we go away on trips.”

“Joanna was great! She gave the perfect amount updates on my greyhound, Minerva while we were away and she kept our house super neat and clean. Minerva was so relaxed when we got home so we know she had a great weekend too! Would highly recommend!”
About: I currently work from home for a family business, but I am looking to expand my own business and passion - taking care of animals! I worked for doggy daycares and boarding facilities for 3.5 years, ensuring the safety, happiness, and health of a wide variety of dog breeds and ages. I have administered medications, completed dog handling courses, and grooming training as well. This led me to groom professionally full-time for 2 years after college. I now prefer to do at-home bathing sessions and spend more time with pets one-on-one in a homey environment. In addition to dogs, I have taken care of fish, cats, amphibians, lizards, and birds. I have a 9 year old bunny of my own, so I am well-versed in rabbit care. Throughout high school, I volunteered at PetSmart taking care of the cats and at Diane's Pet Supplies, too, walking their dogs. These are all in addition to being my primary neighborhood dog-sitter/walker. Pet sitting fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to adjust my day around your pet’s needs—whether that means regular walks, consistent feeding times, play breaks, or simply being present for companionship. I’m able to provide frequent check-ins. For stays in my own house, because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and interaction. My flexible schedule also allows me to closely follow your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care to keep them comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care for every pet I look after. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, follow feeding instructions closely, and administer any medications as needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and at ease. If your dog is staying in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own. They’ll enjoy plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment throughout the day—including couch privileges, treats (as approved), and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home, your pet will have near-constant supervision and companionship, allowing me to closely monitor their safety, comfort, and health for a smooth and enjoyable stay!

Experience working as a vet tech including first aid, animal grooming, training and behavior, and as an animal chiropractor for ~15 years. We do have a kennel license through the state and as such, we require a copy of your current rabies vaccine and dog license (easy to do and only about $12 online!). Question on this? Just ask!

We have a large house for dogs to roam and play throughout the day. Sleeping can be in a kennel or snuggled with us in bed--whatevert you prefer.

“Timothy is the man, he sent me updates while he was visiting, it was my first time leaving my puppy with a sitter and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him with Timothy! 10/10”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. My mom just to call me Elmira. I’d bring all the animals home. I work from home have a flexible schedule.

I have a fenced in patio, plenty of walking areas for them to run around the neighborhood. My kids and I to love them. I have a extra room if they need certain restrictions or crates. They will have run if the house.
“Ben was absolutely wonderful! He communicated well sent great photos and we felt very good about having him care for our dogs. He asked great questions when he was unsure and to me that is the mark of a great person and a caring pet sitter! We will ask Ben back for sure!”
“Tristan did an amazing job watching my dog Riley! This was a last minute trip and my dog has chronic health issues (IBD and ear infections). Tristan handled his care perfectly, and he communicated everything in detail! It was such a relief to find a sitter I can fully trust. I couldn’t recommend him more.”

About: Hello! I am the proud pet father of Castle, a 4 year old German Shepherd and Bogey, a Pitt/Shepherd mix! I also am always fostering puppies through a local rescue organization. Growing up, I helped train and care for our family pup, Nellie. I run a small business specializing in behavioral training but love my time walking and caring for pups here! My best bud Castle is a hard working and high energy German Shepherd that loves to go on hikes and play with his Chuck-it ball! Castle and I have even competed in multiple 5k runs together coming in 2nd place most recently! Bogey is the cuddly energetic puppy you would imagine with the mix he is! I accept pups of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and disabilities. I have experience with puppies as young as 8 weeks as well as the elderly.

About: I have nearly two years of professional experience working as a kennel assistant at two different animal care facilities, where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have experience administering medications, monitoring animal health, and confidently handling pets with a wide range of behaviors, including anxious, reactive, and energetic animals. I have also volunteered with cat rescue organizations, helping care for cats and prepare them for adoption into loving homes. As a pet owner myself, I care for one dog, four cats, and a lizard, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, responsibility, and compassion that every pet deserves. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most requests. In a few weeks, I will be starting college to become a veterinary technician. Once classes begin, I will be available after class Monday through Thursday and will have open availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I will do my best to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love and attention, ensure a safe environment, and treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect and care.
“Riley was wonderful with my pups! Punctual, communicative and so loving with them. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I’d happily book with Riley again and highly recommend!”


About: My name is Sophia and I have loved animals since I was little. I have 3 fur babies myself! Brandy, Bourbon and Whisky (my little bar cart if you will). I also have a rabbit named Toast and all 4 of them are the light of my life. Every morning I wake up and they greet me with kisses and demands for pets. Of course I always give in. I have a bachelors in large animal sciences, have volunteered at forgotten cats for years, and have worked in emergency, oncology and dermatology departments. Currently I work at another veterinary clinic that helps dogs and cats get quick emergency care for more minor issues like ear infections. With all my past experience your fluffy ones will be in good hands! Since I work during week days and sometimes weekends, I would try to be back with your pet(s) as much as possible! (I work a total of 4 days a week and my schedule can be random since I’m in veterinary emergency). Weekdays I work 3pm -11pm and weekends I would work 10am-8pm. Any other time would be spent taking your pet on walks, brushing out their fur, giving them treats and all the attention they deserve! I can stay with/walk pets before work on weekdays. Weekends I would be unable to walk them unless you are okay with my hours and I am doing overnight or long term pet sitting. I would take your dogs for walks or let them out into the yard as much as possible. I will follow instructions left by you and make sure to give many updates and pictures! I believe pictures are the best way to feel comfortable with your pets care while also getting those cute pet moments while your away!
“Jen was a fantastic sitter for our dogs! She was present for them, checked in with me many times and sent many pictures. The girls were well cared for and Jen left the house spotless as well. We will definitely ask her to sit again!”

About: I have experience caring for my family’s two beautiful Australian Shepherds, each with a personality completely their own! First, there’s Coco—also known as “Loco Coco.” She is incredibly sweet, very anxious, smart as hell, and somehow equally goofy. Caring for Coco has taught me the importance of patience, reassurance, and understanding that every dog experiences the world differently. Then there’s Ember. She’ll growl when you pet her… and then growl when you stop petting her! She can be misunderstood and a little moodier, but she is also incredibly loyal and loving in her own unique way. Ember has taught me to respect boundaries, understand body language, and recognize that affection doesn’t always look the same for every dog. Having experience with two very different temperaments has helped me become patient, understanding, and adaptable when caring for animals. I approach every pet as an individual and will take the time to learn what makes your furry family member feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, goofy, independent, cuddly, or a little misunderstood, I will provide care personalized to their individual wants and needs. Your pet deserves someone who will treat them with patience, understanding, confidence, and plenty of love—regardless of their personality! I currently work full-time as an Environmental Scientist with a flexible schedule due to the nature of my work. My position allows me to work remotely, in an office, and onsite at facilities, which gives me flexibility and makes me accommodating when it comes to scheduling pet and house sitting. I am also open to traveling and overnight stays! Because I can work remotely at times, I enjoy the opportunity to spend time in new places while also providing reliable care for your home and pets. I truly miss having furry friends of all shapes and sizes around, and I would love the opportunity to give them plenty of attention, care, and companionship while you’re away. I am very accommodating and will always do my best to work with your schedule, your pets’ routines, and your individual needs. Your home is your safe space—your sanctuary after long days—and the last thing I would ever want is to disturb that peace of mind. I would treat your home and your pets with the same care, respect, and consideration that I would want for my own. This is your time to relax, travel, and enjoy your vacation or whatever may take you away from home. The last thing you should have to worry about is paying for a service while feeling uncomfortable or uneasy about leaving your beloved pets and home with someone you don’t know. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing that your home is being respected and your pets are being cared for with genuine attention and compassion—so you can truly relax while you’re away.

About: I’ve always had 3 dogs in the house growing up & now 2 of my own & volunteered at the SPCA for 2 1/2 years I’m currently working FT Monday through Friday 7am-3:30pm. I go straight home to tend to my two dogs afterwards and would be free by 4pm. Saturdays & Sundays I am off and would love to care for your pets when needed. I have a small yard but love dog parks, always have poop bags, extra leashes and snacks! Have to have the snacks! I also make my own treats.
“Ilene was great usual! Not only does she take extra care with our finicky pups, but she is very respectful of our home and always leaves it in perfect condition. Highly recommend her and I will continue to book her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kenilworth
Tara came to meet her, Elyza took to her right away. Tara stayed at my house overnight for 11 nights, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. Tara sent me pictures every day, which I really appreciated. I never once had to worry about whether Elyza was being well cared for and receiving all the love and attention she deserved. Knowing Elyza was in such good hands made being away from her so much easier! I would definitely ask Tara to care for Elyza again. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my girl, and I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and responsible pet sitter!
We had a great experience with Timothy. He was very responsive, reliable, and took great care of our pets. Communication was easy throughout, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely recommend him and would be happy to have him sit for us again.

Betty was amazing with our pack. She sent daily updates and pictures, took care of the house, and cleaned so we wouldn’t have to do anything when we got home. I appreciate knowing that our babies were with someone so caring and attentive and I hope that she will be our sitter for any future trip we need to go on.

We had an excellent experience with Grace! She stayed at our home with Kobe for 4 nights. From the start, she clearly cared about my dog's well-being. Grace even came to visit and meet Kobe prior to our trip; upon our request, because we do not regularly leave him except with family. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while we were away. My dog was happy, well-exercised, and comfortable when I returned home. (and our house was spotless!) Grace followed all care instructions and went above and beyond to make sure my pet felt safe and loved. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with Grace again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Kenilworth is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $79 per night. On Rover, 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 3,471 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kenilworth. 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 Kenilworth 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 Kenilworth 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 Kenilworth 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.
