“Lauren was an amazing house sitter! Responsible and reliable, respectful of our rules/routines with the dogs and took great care of them and our home while we were out of town.”
“Rhonda was absolutely wonderful. She made sure our fur babies were well taken care of. She sent us daily updates and photos. I will definitely be using her over and over again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets … I am a work from home dog mom. My schedule allows me to be present and active with my dog, allowing for multiple breaks throughout the day as we live an active lifestyle! I have an open backyard and a lab of my own to keep your pet company. We can also crate in a separate room if needed.
“Cassie does a great job with our elderly cat. She also was GREAT with my daughter's rescue cat who can be unpredictable, especially with new people! Both cats were happy campers when we returned home!”
“Paula was amazing! She took great care of our dogs and cats during an in-home stay. The pets were happy and well-loved, and the house and cars looked perfect when we got back. Highly recommend!”
“Denver was great, and we will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. He took pictures, gave updates, and made sure the dogs weren’t chewing up anything they weren’t supposed to. When we got home, the dogs were all relaxed and happy. Thank you, Denver!”
“We left our dog and cat with Tony for 2 weeks and He sent us photos almost everyday When we came back from our vacation we saw both healthy, and Tony took care even of the house 100% approved and for sure we will call him again in the future”
“Emily was the best with our 7mo old Weimaraner, Dodger, while we took a week-long vacation. She was consistent, reliable, sent us pictures/updates and walked him daily. We would absolutely recommend Emily and plan to use her again in the future!”
“Our pups had a safe and fun week with Shelby. She made sure they were fed, exercised and got lots of love and cuddle time. Our youngest pup who is still pretty shy with new people warmed up to Shelby very quickly.”
“Diana and Jenn are very nice! They took the time to come meet my dog and me before the sitting, which is something that I really appreciated. I was sent pics during the sitting and everything! It was awesome not having to worry about my pets while I was out of town. Will be recommending them to everyone I know!”
“Sean did a wonderful job and treated the boys so good. Our dogs are a little difficult and one of them is very shy. Sean was able to create a quick bond with him and they loved him! Will be using him again.”
“Hailey was amazing! I’ve never left my dog with a sitter before. He is old, blind, and has kidney disease so it can be a lot to care for him. She did a wonderful job. He was very comfortable with her and she handled his accidents with professionalism and care. That was my main concern and she put my mind at ease with updates while I was away which I appreciated so much. I came home to a house the way I left it and a content dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: Not only have I grown up around dogs my entire life, I was a dog trainer for five years and have experience as a dog groomer as well. Dogs have always had a special place with me and I have been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. Looking forward to bringing that care to you! I’m currently working full time without a consistent week to week schedule. That being said, if your request is within a month please reach out as I have my schedule 3 weeks in advance and we can discuss if I meet your needs. If it is past 3 weeks out, I have the ability to have some flexibility in my shifts to best suit what is needed! With my background in animal care and dog training, I have experience dealing with all varieties of dogs and cats and I love getting to know them and their unique personalities! My dog, Kai, is very important to me and I know how much trust matters when having someone check in on him and my goal is to be that person for you and your pets!
“Alexis took amazing care of my pup while I was out of town! She and her dog gave my pup all the love and play time that he could hope for, and he was so at ease when I came home he didn't even seem to notice I'd been gone. She was very communicative and sent messages and pictures frequently, I can recommend her enough!”
“Erin was great with Rowan! She showed up on time was very communicative and sent pictures! We had a great experience with her watching him and our home. Rowan is still in training and she followed his rules and worked with him to continue his training! We will use again and you will be happy with Erin, she is great with dogs!”
“Since the last time using rover, my gf and I were unsure about giving it another try. Ayla was so good to keep us updated on our kids. And if that wasn’t enough to urge you to book her; she even brought in our pkgs from outside so they wouldn’t sit on the porch and refrigerated the ones that needed to be kept cool. On top of that she washed the bedding which she slept on and left us next to nothing to do when we got home except unpack. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“I’m more than happy with Alysse’s service! Het attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly demeanor truly made a difference in my cats & my experience. The care and effort she puts into making sure everything was perfect. Her dedication to her work is evident, and it did not go unnoticed. Thank you for going above and beyond to ensure that I was satisfied with the service. 🙏🏾”
“Aaron was fantastic! Great at communicating while we were out of town. Kept us informed on when he’d be dropping by. Our dog was a bit hesitant at first and Aaron handled the situation extremely well! By the second visit our dog had a new bff. Highly recommend!”
“My partner and I are first-time dog owners, and Tavin was our first dog sitter booked through this app, so naturally we were a little nervous. However, Tavin was communicative, easygoing, and attentive to our pup’s needs right from the start. He stayed overnight with our dog, sent us pictures and updates, responded promptly, and left the house just as clean as he found it. We will definitely be booking Tavin again and highly recommend him to anyone considering his services!”
“Kellie is amazing! Zuma loves spending time with her and I never have to worry how he’s doing while I’m away which is a huge stress reliever. The pictures and messages to check in are the perfect balance to being away and Zuma is always so happy when she sends one. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Kellie. She also always resets the house when she leaves and I love that so much especially after a long travel days.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Keysburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Keysburg on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 511 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keysburg. 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 Keysburg 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 Keysburg 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 Keysburg 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Keysburg. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
