“Gabrielle was terrific. I’m a first timer and was nervous leaving my senior dog alone but Gabrielle did an initial meeting and was very prompt. She also kept me updated throughout the evening. My dog has dementia but Gabrielle was very patient through the “sundown” period. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi, I’m Ashlynn! 🐾 I’ve never gone a day in my life without an animal! I’m currently a proud pet parent to a 17-year-old Goldendoodle, a 4-year-old Mini Goldendoodle, an 8-year-old Persian/Russian Blue cat, and an 8-year-old leopard gecko. Needless to say, animals have always been a huge part of my life! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets, medication administration, daily walks, feeding routines, and overnight stays. I primarily offer overnight house sitting and in-home pet care, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, and I always prioritize following your pet’s routine, keeping your home tidy, and providing regular updates and photos. I work full-time Monday through Friday, 9 AM–5 PM, and am typically available for overnight stays from 6 PM–8 AM. Weekends 24 hrs. Have no problem going to and from work while staying with your pets! Whether your pet needs extra attention, a little patience, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! ❤️ Looking forward to hearing from you and your babies! My Availability: I work full-time Monday through Friday, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For overnight house-sitting bookings during the workweek, I am typically available to be in your home from 6:00 PM to 8:00 AM. During the weekends I am available 24hrs! I’m always upfront about my schedule to ensure your pet’s care needs align with my availability. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect as my own, ensuring a clean, safe, and comfortable environment throughout my stay. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, litter box maintenance, and any special accommodations you or your pet may need. This can include garbage/waste disposal, light cleaning and laundry etc.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring reliability, calm confidence, and genuine affection to every pet I look after. I understand routines, behavior cues, and how to create a stress‑free environment for animals of all ages. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive care, clear communication, and a safe, comfortable space. Your peace of mind, and your pet’s happiness, are always my top priorities. Animals have always been part of my everyday life, so pet care blends seamlessly into my routine. I’m used to balancing work, errands, and pet responsibilities, from morning play sessions to evening wind downs. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like an interruption. I provide all pet care directly in my clients’ homes, where animals feel safest and most comfortable. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and any special instructions, so nothing in their day feels unfamiliar or stressful. I pay attention to their habits, moods, and comfort levels, and I make sure their space stays clean, calm, and consistent while their family is away. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and cared for in the environment they know best.

About: I have taken care of my relative's pets since about 13 years old. I have experience with not only dogs and cats, but exotic animals too (birds, rodents, and reptiles). I also work as a Veterinary Assistant at an emergency vet hospital. I aspire to become a licensed technician one day, and maybe even a veterinarian in the future. Animals are my passion, not only because of my adoration for them, but mainly because of my love for animal care and rehabilitation. I have three pets of my own: Luna (6 year old cat), Rubio (6 month old kitten), and Bruno (2 year old dog). So it's safe to say I have good experience with at home pet care. Working in a veterinary ER has definitely helped me gain practical skills like emergency preparedness and building client communication/relationship skills. I believe I can strengthen my animal handling and animal body language skills, as well as learn more about pet health and safety. I currently work Wednesday’s to Saturday’s at an emergency vet hospital as an assistant. I’ve been working as an assistant for one year and a half and I aspire to become a technician. Because I work in such a busy environment daily, pet-sitting is such a lovely change. With pet-sitting, I believe I can strengthen my animal handling and animal body language skills, as well as learn more about pet health and safety. I have two cats and a dog at home so I definitely have experience with at-home pet care/rehabilitation. My pets eat twice a day (I feed them ingredient safe wet/dry food with added supplements/vitamins). My favorite thing to do is walk my dog and nap with my cats. Grooming is something I also do at home for them (baths, subtle hair trims, brushing hair/teeth, and nail cutting. I would make sure to keep my client’s home in prim condition and I live by the phrase, “Leave things better than how you found it.”

About: I’ve taken care of many different clients and run a business working with cats, dogs, fish, birds etc. Providing quality and affordable pet care for your pets. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day starts with checking in on the pets under my care, ensuring they are well-fed, hydrated, and comfortable. Throughout the day, I schedule regular playtimes and walks to keep them active and happy. I meticulously follow any specific instructions provided by pet owners, such as administering medication or adhering to particular feeding schedules. By prioritizing the well-being of the pets I look after, I ensure they receive the consistent, loving care they deserve, seamlessly integrating pet care into my everyday life. Check us out on social media otepetsitting & otecarrentals. Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, involves providing a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. In my home, I ensure that pets have their own designated spaces, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and access to fresh water and nutritious food. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of love and attention. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain the pet’s routine and comfort. This includes feeding, administering medication, providing exercise, and ensuring companionship. I respect the client’s home as if it were my own, keeping it tidy and secure. Whether at my place or theirs, my goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring the pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for at all times.

Kristen was Amazing! She cares for our 2 pups for a week while we were away. My little Penny who initially tested her became her best friend. We had photos daily and videos. She did such an amazing job I think our pups were disappointed when we came home…LOL. I highly recommend her we couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker.

Gabrielle took great care of our 2 dogs and cat while we were away for 4 nights. Our 10 month old puppy is a handful and Gabrielle was incredibly patient with him. Our other dog is a senior who requires oral medication twice daily which she administers no problem. She is a great communicator and gives timely updates!

Tara was amazing!! She was patient and kind with our anxious pup and won her over very quickly (an impressive feat!) And she was wonderful with our 2 month old puppy, making sure he napped when he needed and got to the bathroom. She is also generally a warm and caring person who loves taking care of pets. I will absolutely use her again!!

You will not find a more reliable and loving sitter for your furbaby. Aileen is amazing! I can't say enough great things about her. I have her stay in my home with my dog while on vacation. I've used her at least 5 times. She is communicative during entire stay. I know what is going on every day, and I know she is present and actively caring for Cinnamon. She sends pics and videos as well as am and pm daily summaries. Aileen is kind, easy to talk to, follows any special instructions such as giving medicines, and cleans up house (even washed sheets) before she leaves. She is really the best!

Stayce saved our lives when our prior sitter canceled 2 days before a 2 week trip. She immediately connected with my dog when she came for the meet and greet, and was so good with her. She communicated with us everyday through updates and pictures, which means alot when you are on the other side of the country. We came home to a very happy dog and a clean, orderly house. We are already planning to book Stayce again and highly recommend her.

I can't say enough on how wonderful Dawn was with our dog Pebbles. She provided stability and cared about our dog as we do. She was very easy-going and provided us with daily updates. Pebbles was just rescued six months ago and suffers from separation anxiety. I saw no evidence of distress in Pebbles while we were gone or when we returned home. She was very happy and I am so pleased. Dawn will certainly be our go to when we travel.♥️🐾♥️🐾

Anne is awesome! She patiently listened to my “dog mom” ramblings while we were away as I remembered info we forgot to write down. She sent updates and pics of our pup in the yard and playing in the house. Sochi has a few special needs so we appreciated that she was proactive in clarifying info about his med schedule, exercise needs and showed concern that his appetite seemed off. Anne will be our first call next time we need a “sitter” for our pup!

Leah was an outstanding sitter for our two dogs and cat! Our senior lab has special needs and mobility issues, she did a wonderful job of caring for him and making sure he was comfortable the entire time we were away. Our younger dog immensely enjoyed her company and was spoiled with lots of treats and playtime. She was also incredibly patient with our formerly feral cat who is very wary of new people, finding ways to gradually gain her trust and provide the best possible care. Leah really took the time to get to know all of our pets, remarking on their personalities and quirks along the way. We had such peace of mind while our dogs and cat were in Leah's care, we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and professional pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Kingston Estates

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Kingston Estates is $51 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $64 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 November 2026, there are 5,197 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kingston Estates. 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 Kingston Estates 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 Kingston Estates 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 Kingston Estates 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kingston Estates. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
