“Jessy house sat and watched our dog and cat. She was amazing! Took great care of the pets, sent cute pictures throughout, and was very communicative. We came back home to happy healthy pets, and the house exactly as we had left it. I would definitely recommend her to others.”

About: For the first time in 10 years I do not have a dog of my own, so I'd love to help take care of others! I am currently working full time but I am able to go home daily on my lunch breaks to take care of your loved one! My home becomes your pet's home! I view pets as children. I will enforce and backup your rules/training, but other than that, they are more than welcome to make themselves at home!

About: Some of my earliest memories are of spending many weekends and summers during my childhood at my grandparents’ home, helping them take care of chickens, ducks, goats and more. They even made goat cheese! For years, my sister and I begged our parents for a dog, and in 2012, a white Bichon Maltese came into our lives. He’s 15 now and still kicking, giving endless kisses and protesting whenever he has to get his eye drops. Shortly after him, we adopted two more dogs, also Bichon Maltese, and they have since become the cutest little family. I’ve taken care of them for more than 10 years, taking them on walks, feeding them, taking them to the groomers, the vet and more. All of that work is worthwhile and I’ve seen what a pet’s love can do to you: Not only did those three Bichon Maltese cure my mom’s fear of dogs but now she treats them like her children. Beyond them, I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ pets, and now I’m lucky enough to dedicate so much of my time and money to making my own cat, Leela, happy. Growing up with and caring for a pet whose entire life is merely a chapter of my own has only cemented how important it is to give them the best life we can while they’re here with us. That’s what I strive to offer every pet in my care. I work from home most days and my schedule is pretty flexible. While early mornings and afternoons/evenings are generally preferred for drop-in visits/walks, I’m happy to work with your schedule to find something that will work. I have more availability for house sitting on weekends. It’s important that I meet you and your pet beforehand so I can hear how you want your pet to be taken care of (because the pet parent knows best!) Besides that, I always make sure leashes are adjusted properly and securely held with any dogs but especially with those who will take off running when you least expect it. I also make sure all doors are properly closed to prevent any escape attempts and that things cats might enjoy knocking over or nibbling at/eating are safely out of reach.

“Can’t thank Andrea enough for her help! I had her do some house sitting while I was away, so that my cat would have another person around, and from the start, she was wonderful with her communication, positivity, and also asking all of the right questions. Immediately gave me confidence that my house and cat were in good hands. Would 10/10 recommend her! Thank you for being so wonderful Andrea!”

“Sophie was perfect in every way! She took excellent care of our Peekapoo, Gia for two consecutive nights while we were attending a wedding. Gia, who has separation anxiety warmed up to Sophie relatively quickly thanks to her experience with and love of dogs combined with her mild-mannered, gentle style. We had some delays due to weather and late starts, she was very accommodating, which eased the pressure. Would definitely book her again! Highly recommended:):)”

About: Since I been born my parents have had dogs and I was luckily able to care for them. I have dog sat for friends and family before and had nothing but a great experience. I work part time and sometimes have soccer practice. I will make time for any responsibilities I need to uphold. If you reach out I will tell u my availability. My care for your dog will not change regarding the location. I care for each dog the same way I have cared for my dogs in the past.

About: I excel at making dogs feel calm and like their owners never even left the house. Learning their schedules, quirks, and favorite walking spots helps me make them feel comfortable for extended stays. Energetic puppy? I’ll run around w them and tire them out. Senior dog? We can relax and go at their pace. What sets me apart is my intuition and caring heart. I have a flexible, remote job so I am able to stay with your pet as long as needed through the day and take them on frequent walks in the neighborhood good or to the dog park! I do live-in dogsitting/housesitting at the client’s house. I like to learn about your dog (how they like to play, chill, etc..) so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible.

“Anna was an excellent house sitter to our nervous greyhound and cat. She sent daily updates at least and took booker for the walks he needed. She went above and beyond keeping our house in order. We spent the vacation knowing our pets were cared for and came back to clean house. Highly recommend (unless we need her ;-) )”

About: I not only love caring for animals, but learning all their quirks and personalities. I am very familiar with the patience and love it takes to care for seniors, and the space many animals want from humans (especially new ones). I am happy to meet them where they’re at and hopefully brighten up their day! I have lots of experience with giving pills, special diets, etc. as well. I learn fast and take animal care very seriously. I’m currently working part time and studying to apply for grad school, so I have plenty of time! I often am doing one of my many hobbies or spending time with loved ones, which can easily be shared with your little loves too. At home, I am vigilant about dangers for my cat when I am not around and triple check to make sure she is safe and she can’t get into anything. My main priorities are to make sure she is healthy, happy, and enriched!

About: I currently own an amazing certified Good Boy Austalian Cattle Dog and two snuggly cats. I have have always owned at least one pet, both cats and dogs since I was little. I have done a decent amount of pet sitting for neighbors and friends. I have even had to give oral meds to one dog I dog sat. If you have any questions, please ask! Dogs will always get at least a 15 minutes walk because my dog usually needs a longer one. I sometimes give my cats and dog breakfast and then usually give the dog a quick 15 walk in the morning before leaving for work at 7:30 am. I get back home around 3:00 pm and usually give my dog his actual long walk between 40 and 70 minutes depending on weather. I feed the animals and then have dinner and usually just relax and snuggle on the couch with at least one of the fur kids. I fit in other cleaning and what not in there but I always make it a point to walk my doggo and make sure they get snuggles since I am gone for a good portion of the day. I have room for a crate for a crate trained dog. I have a moderately sized backyard that is well fenced in. My dog is a counter surfer so we have baby gates for both the kitchen and the extra bedroom. The extra bedroom serves as the cat room so the cats have a dedicated space. Stuff can be adjusted if you have a cat not used to dogs, so they can have that entire room or vice versa our cats can go in there for a dog that is not cat friendly. We only live five minutes from Marbletown Animal Hospital of any emergencies arise needing urgent care if your vet is not available.

I previously cared for my own Rottweiler for nine years, so I am comfortable with large breeds as well as smaller pets. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine. I will follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same love, attention, and respect I would give my own. Pet care fits well into my routine. I carefully schedule each booking around my work hours so I can provide dependable, unhurried care. I will keep my availability updated and communicate clearly with every pet owner. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, walks, and house rules. I keep doors and gates secure, supervise pets carefully, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular photo updates.

Jared looked after my dog Felix in my house for 2 nights. He took great care of everything and made sure I felt at ease. I found a happy and relaxed pup upon my return; Felix looked like he had a good time with Jared. I'm glad I found him and will hopefully get a chance to hire him again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Leeds

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Leeds is $31 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $31 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 538 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Leeds. 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 Leeds 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 Leeds 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Leeds 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.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
