“Hanna took such great care of our dogs while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were safe and happy at home. She was thoughtful, dependable, and clearly cares about the animals she looks after. We never had to worry about them for a moment. We are incredibly grateful for her help and would happily have her watch our dogs again.”
“Saliha did an amazing job taking care of our cats. She is detail oriented, communicative, and flexible. I can tell that she really loves animals and treats the pets she watches as her own. She sent a lot of pictures and kept me updated. She followed all the instructions we gave her and did even more. I was nervous to leave our cats, as we had just moved, but she helped our cats feel comfortable immediately. Saliha also helped take out moving boxes which was so kind and unexpected!! I would definitely recommend Saliha to other pet owners, especially if you have a shy cat who is picky about who they like!”
“Katie was wonderful with our dog, Kalani, while we traveled to Buffalo. She was highly responsive and scheduled a meet-and-greet beforehand, which gave us complete peace of mind. We returned to a clean and neat home, exactly how we left it. We highly recommend Katie 100% and will definitely be rebooking with her soon!”
“Ollie was fantastic with my boy Walter! He got all the love, play time, and attention he craves. She sent updates and pics while I was away, and Ollie was an extremely responsible house guest. 10/10 recommend…we already have future visits lined up.”
“Dani was fantastic! Communicative before and during her stay, provided updates about how our pup was doing (he's a puppy and this was our first time away from him), and sent photos. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Melisa was such a huge help for us! We had a last minute trip and she quickly stepped in to help us out. She was incredibly responsive and sent us lots of pics of our dog Jack while we were gone. You could tell from the pictures he was very happy. Will definitely reach out to Melisa again!”
“Tigran was a great dog caregiver. He shared some of his knowledge about dogs and He is a great communicator and quickly responded to all contacts. He provided daily photos of his walks with my dog and reached out as needed for clarity around house and dog needs. Tigran was respectful of our home and able to manage some complex house events while we were away. I would happily employ Tigran again.”
“Jamie was a terrific sitter for my older pup! Communication was great, my house was in wonderful shape, and Jamie even checked-in to make sure I didn't need extra help when my flight was delayed. Would definitely rely on Jamie in the future.”
“Keidy was amazing with our two dogs Izzy and Pippin! We had a super unusual request and she helped us out on our wedding weekend making sure the pups were well taken care of! She rolled with the punches and I can tell the dogs had a wonderful time with her.”
“Chadd took great care of our dogs during our two week trip, providing regular updates in the Rover app at our requested interval and managing a complication very professionally. When we had a leak spring up, Chadd contacted us promptly and worked with one of our family members to facilitate repairs. The dogs were clearly well-loved and received appropriate food and exercise in our absence. The house was perfectly clean and he even took care of washing the bedding. I highly recommend Chadd and plan to book with him again in the future.”
“Matt did a great job taking care of our dogs and home. He kept us up to date daily with pictures and texts how the dogs were doing. He was also very responsive to is as well. When we got home, the dogs were happy and well taken care of. We already rebooked Matt for our next trip. I highly recommend.”
“Mary was wonderful! My dog is a bit reserved around new people, and Mary worked with her to gain her trust and make her feel comfortable while I was away. She was really communicative and kept me informed of how my dog was doing, and she spent a lot of time and energy on my dog while she watched her. I have already booked another dog sitting visit with Mary!”
“Megan was great with our 2 dogs! Great communication and frequent updates with pictures. I felt our dogs were well taken care of and happy to be around her. She also left the house spotless when we returned.”
“Ellie was so patient with our timid, reactive dog, Olive! She asked all the right questions, took time to learn Olive's quirks, and provided lots of great feedback throughout our trip. Being over 5000 miles away and an 8 hour time difference, it was important we had someone we could trust both with our pup as well as our home and Ellie was a perfect fit. Got lots of photos of Olive cuddled up next to her and she even searched the house for Ellie the day after she left. Will definitely use Ellie on another trip!”
“Ben waa promt arriving to care for our 3 month old puppy at pur hotel...aside from him suffering a puppy scratch, they had a great afternoon. Fritz was fed/watered/pottied/walked/played with and generally well cared for, for 6 hours! We give Ben ????? (5 paws/stars)!”

Megan was an outstanding dog-cat-house sitter. She kept our dog and cat happy and safe over a 4 day period. She was a respectful and considerate guest in our home, leaving everything meticulously clean and in its place! We received wonderful pictures and updates of what our pets were up to. You can tell that Megan has a kind heart in the way she treats animals and people. I would absolutely rebook her the next time we have a need and recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.
Suzanna was amazing, such a wonderful sitter for my coonhound Penny. She gave Penny so much love and attention and updated me with cute pictures and videos. Her family was all very sweet and I felt like they were so wonderful for my dog. Absolutely would recommend Suzanna for your pet sitting needs!
We are so grateful for the wonderful care she gave our older dog and cat. Our dog was having a difficult time walking and needed extra patience, attention, and care, and she went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well looked after. It meant so much to us knowing she was in such caring hands.
Sophia did a wonderful job taking care of our house and our pup for our week-long vacation. She managed a very old pup who needs a little extra care. I didn't have to worry about a thing while we were gone, and the house was tidy when we got home and our pup was clearly happy and settled. Super pleased with Sophia and will definitely ask for her help again in the future.
Isis did a wonderful job taking care of our much loved mutt and our home while we were away! She sent daily pictures and updates, followed instructions perfectly, and was quickly responsive. Harry seemed happy and content upon our return, and we will definitely use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Leyner is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $57 and $88 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.

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 Leyner 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 Leyner 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 Leyner 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.
