“Katie took care of our 4 dogs while we were in Europe for 10 days. She did a spectacular job of updating me (nervous dog mom) while caring for our pups. We have two older dogs that take medication several times a day and one that wears a diaper at night. She handled it all with stride and we came home to a clean house and happy dogs. I highly recommend her!”
“Our first time working with Rover and we were fortunate to have found a wonderfully patient and understanding Millie who gave great care to our senior labradoodle, princess Maya. Millie communicated throughout what activities they were engaged in and was sensitive to Maya's needs to take numerous walks and get lots of attention to assuage her separation anxiety. We highly recommend Millie to those who are looking for a high degree of thoughtful care of their four -legged family members.”
“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”
“Brooklyn was excellent with our pups and bird. She was attentive to their needs and provided daily updates and pictures. She accommodated our early return for an emergency. Would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you”
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing. She was in constant communication with me while I was out of town and send me pictures the whole time. I will certainly be booking with her again! Thanks so much Kelsey!”
“Highly highly recommended! Melanye went above and beyond and is by far the best sitter I have found in this app! She took extra care of my pup who needed to go to the vet and made sure she never felt alone. I received daily updates and photos. Melanye is very kind and caring and my dog trusted her immediately. Thank you so much Melanye!”
“Abby was great during our 9 day vacation. We were worried leaving them with someone else for the first time but she sent videos and pictures, and even gave them a bath! The Pups were sad to see her leave so I know they had a great time too. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Abby!”
“Stephanie was amazing! Our dogs are elderly and we were worried about leaving them. She sent us pictures daily of our dogs doing different activities. They were relaxed and happy. When we returned home, the house was spotless. Our pets were well cared for. We will definitely be contacting Stephanie again to take care of our sweet Boodles and George! ❤️?”
“Alissa is fantastic! She took such good care of our pups while we were away for the week. This was the first time we ever used Rover and were nervous but she was great to communicate with, sent us updates and pictures, and extra tidied up our house before heading out. We did a meet and greet prior to the trip for everyone to meet and to explain the basics for the care of our dogs. All in all the whole process went smoothly and I'm so glad we booked Alissa! Will def book her for future trips.”
“Amelia stayed in our home and looked after our geriatric small dog recently. (This was our first experience with Rover). On a previous trip when she’d been boarded, our dog hadn’t eaten and had lost several lbs, so we needed help. Amelia was perfect! My dog was able to stay home with no change to her routine. I received pics, texts and had an stress-less trip thanks to Amelia!”
“Emily was great! My cat immediately loved her, which is super rare. She has always been quick to communicate and flexible. She will definitely be my go to, and I know my pets can’t wait to have her back again soon!”
“Sarah is a great pet sitter, all 4 of my animals seemed to be very comfortable with her. She left the house very tidy when we came home after a long weekend. We have hired her twice now and she will be out first choice next time we need a sitter”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities! I’ve looked after multiple pets for friends, family, and clients; providing walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand the importance of providing patient, attentive care and making pets feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I previously worked at a dog park, where I gained hands-on experience reading canine body language, understanding dog behavior, and safely managing interactions between dogs of different temperaments. This experience has taught me how to recognize stress signals, prevent conflicts, and ensure every pet has a positive, safe experience! Im currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate your pet’s needs throughout the week/weekend! I work from 9am to 5pm 3 to 4 times a week, but my schedule can be adjusted depending on you and your pets needs! When caring for pets, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any household rules. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping the home clean and secure. When caring for pets in my apartment, I ensure the client knows I have a cat of my own, who loves dogs and enjoys the company of having another furry friend around the house! I also live in a very walkable part of town, so walks will not be an issue, as well as a dog park only a few steps from my apartment!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Leland is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Leland
Katie and Jay were fantastic with my pup. He absolutely loved them! They were very understanding of his anxiety with new people, and were able to win him over immediately. I was anxious too about leaving him for the night, but all my worries went away at the “meet and greet.” He liked hem right away & was sad when they left. Katie sent us numerous updates and pictures to put our minds at ease. When we got home they had taken the garbage out, ran the dishwasher and left some Shepherds Pie for us to enjoy. We will ABSOLUTELY have them sit for our pup again. I highly recommend them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Leland on Rover is $72.15 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 775 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Leland. 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 Leland 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 Leland 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 Leland 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.
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.
