“I almost don’t want to leaver a raving review because I don’t want her busy next time I leave town!!! Helen is awesome. I leave my dog in full confidence of her wellbeing.”
“Wesley was an amazing dog sitter. When I got home from my trip, Sadie was relaxed, the house was tidy and even my plants were happy! Wesley sent pictures and videos of Sadie which I appreciated. There was also a puppy report and a card waiting to inform me of the happenings of the stay. I could not recommend Wesley enough.”
“Anna was super thorough and patient in the meet and greet with our dog, who can sometimes be overly energetic and anxious. She is detail oriented and super responsible, and updated us throughout the stay and Beanie seemed calm and content when we returned. Thanks, Anna!”
“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”
“Joe was fantastic!! He was so good with our very senior dog. He administered medicine and took such good care of her. He kept in daily contact with pictures! My house seemed actually cleaner then I left it. It was as if no one was ever there….except he took my garbage out!! I would very highly recommend Joe for your family’s needs!”
About: 🇺🇸 Planning a July 4th getaway? I'm currently accepting holiday bookings, including last-minute and same-day requests when availability allows. I'd love to help care for your pets while you're away! Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has grown up with family pets and has experience caring for both cats and dogs with a variety of personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, cuddly, or independent. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and attentive caring for your pet while you’re away, and I always aim to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. From feeding, walks, and playtime to litter box care, treats, and plenty of affection, I’m happy to provide the care and attention your pet deserves. I love meeting new pets and building relationships with them, and I’d be excited to care for your cat or dog! I work full time but have an hour long break. I also have a reliable personal car so I can travel to homes during my lunch break, ensuring that pets are taken care of throughout the day I visit homes often and send updates and pictures to families, ensuring that everyone sees their fur baby often. Litter boxes and water bowls are cleaned daily. While home owners are away, I also make sure to bring in any mail and anything else that shows up during my stay.
About: Since I was 12, I have been walking a plethora of dogs of varying breeds, ages, and weights, ranging from 15 pounds to 100 pounds. I have also watched many cats, varying in age from a few weeks to 18 years old. I can give medication in food, pill pockets, and pill poppers. My schedule is pretty wide open, as I am free most days from the hours of 9 - 5 to visit your animals and walk dogs! I am very friendly with animals and am pleased to have them in my care during walks and visits. Their safety is always my top concern.
“Bryan —thank you!!!!— for heading right back to our house to care for everything when my plans to return got de-railed. You are fantastic. I am told the house is perfectly clean, and the pets are all as happy as could be. Thank you!!!!”
“Anna was extremely communicative and provided consistent updates while she watched my two pups during an out of town trip. I could tell through every photo and video she shared that the dogs were very well taken care of and comfortable. I would definitely book Anna again for future requests!”
“Celeste was great! They house sat for me and took care for my cats, sent me pictures and made sure they got attention, fed, and cleaned the litter box. Would definitely recommend them!”

“Mark did a fantastic job with our pup, Winky, who requires shots twice daily. He handled his care beautifully, communicated frequently, and left the house sparkling! We’re having come back very soon!”
“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

“Steven was an incredible sitter! He was extremely responsive, gave great updates, and took wonderful care of our dog. Noodle was clearly well loved and also kept on her routine. We would highly recommended Steven for any of your dog needs.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel Park
Steven was as wonderful a pet sitter to my dog and two cats as I could have hoped for. My dog has a medical condition that requires some specific aspects of care, and Steven was great at managing these. I ran into some issues with her medication order while I was away, but Steven was extremely communicative and easy to work with while I got the medications sorted. He sent pictures of my pets daily and didn't mind me reminding him a hundred times of things he was already doing! My dog loved him and the kitties didn't even mind him (rare for them)! This was my first time using Rover, and I would 100% recommend Steven to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet uncle :)
Nikki was just simply the best! She was incredibly attentive, gave frequent updates and pictures (awesome pictures), and checked in often which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We never once worried about our dogs or our home. She kept everything clean and tidy, and truly went above and beyond in every way. One of our dogs is very shy around new people, and she was so patient and kind that he completely warmed up to her. It was clear she genuinely cared for them like they were her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Laurel Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Laurel Park on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,484 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laurel Park. 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 Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park 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.
