“Sarah is amazing! She is incredibly thorough, patient, and professional. She asked thoughtful questions about my cat that even I hadn’t thought of, and my cat was completely calm and comfortable around her. She also took amazing photos of my baby and was very attentive to everything happening in the house. She noticed and communicated anything that might need my attention, which gave me great peace of mind. I truly appreciate how caring, observant, and responsible she is. I highly recommend Sarah!”

“We’ve used Nikki’s pet sitting services several times now. Nikki always takes such good care of our dog Georgie. He’s older and requires a bit of extra care and Nikki is always there to help accommodate his needs. We appreciate how attentive she is and makes sure Georgie has everything he needs while we’re away. Her updates always include the cutest photos and great recaps of what their day was like. 10/10 - Would recommend Nikki to anyone!”

“William is a great house and pet sitter. My babies were still miffed at me when I came home but adjusted overnight. I know they were in good hands with William so I did not have to be anxious while I was away for almost 2 weeks. He left my house in good order and even washed some towels and bed linens. I believe he is very responsible and trustworthy and he sent me WhatsApp messages with photos while I was in Europe.”
“Alexys did a great job with our kitten and puppy. She kept us updated on how they were doing. Our puppy is skittish around new people and things and she was able to win him over. She was also very professional and our home was as we left it. We will be using her again in a few days after having her here for the past week.”

“So happy to have found Nico through Rover. We can now leave our dogs and feel confident that they are being well-cared for. Nico kept us informed with photos and texts, and the dogs had a blast with him. Nico's love of dogs is matched by his knowledge of different behaviors and how to handle them.

Christina was great! She took such great care of Banner. She communicated well. She sent us so many pictures and videos. Our home was found just as we left it with a happy puppy to greet us. She also helped us with feeding our fish twice a day! She has a lovely personality and it was comforting to have her here while we were away. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to others!
Alex was great. The dogs had a few minor medical things which she communicated to me and we worked out a plan-she even cooked for them to calm Martha’s upset tummy The animals were happy and comfortable when we got home. The house was in good order. We got so many great pics too!!!! She also offered to stay later if needed (we had some traffic delays) which was nice (we didn’t need it in the end but the offer was appreciated). Thanks Alex!!!!
Seb spent a long weekend with our old lady pup Fenner and we genuinely couldn’t be happier to have found them. They stepped in at the last minute when we needed them and took the absolute best care of our girl, including giving her extra meds because of a recent procedure and staying an extra night when our travel plans unexpectedly changed at the last minute. On top of all that, they left us gorgeous drawings of Fen that made us so happy. Can’t wait to have Seb over to hang with Fen again soon, truly. Thank you Seb!!!
Sarah’s great! She followed instructions and also anticipated our needs. She provided timely updates and gave us all the peace of mind we needed while we were away from our dog. We will definitely be using her again and anyone who hires her is lucky to have them looking after their pets.
Kristen was wonderful! This was our second time booking her to care for our four dogs and we couldn’t have been happier. It was so evident from the photos and updates she sent that our dogs loved her and felt comfortable and safe with her. Since all four of our dogs are rescues with traumatic pasts, their comfort with her is really telling and gives us incredible peace of mind when we’re away. Kristen also kept our house extremely tidy during her stay. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our time away knowing that our dogs were happy, safe, and being so well cared for.
Erin was incredible and I’ll definitely be recommending her for other friends that are visiting NYC! She was incredibly communicative, very friendly and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog Sedona in such great hands! We got lots of photo updates, and to top it off she was able to give us recommendations on where to go out in the city! This was my first time using Rover, and Erin was very patient with me navigating the app and how the whole process works! Thank you for such a great experience ☺️
This was this was my first time using Rover. My dog unexpectedly went into heat and we had to make alternate plans for her care. Christian responded quickly and efficiently. We felt fully confident in leaving our dog with him, even though she was requiring additional care and Grooming due to her heat. I would absolute him again!
Caitlin is kind, loving, and patient with our feisty dog. She took the time to get to know his personality, which we greatly appreciate. She's very professional, communicates well and gave us helpful updates. She left our home clean, and us worry free while we were away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Laverock
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Laverock on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,579 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laverock. 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 Laverock 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 Laverock 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 Laverock 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.
