“Our friends referred us to Amanda for house sitting our dog, and I'm so glad they did! We had some last-minute travel changes and Amanda was able to accommodate a last-minute request to come stay with our dog overnight in our house. I appreciated how communicative, reliable, and punctual she was. She left our house in perfect condition, and sent plenty of photos of our happy pup. I will definitely be rebooking with Amanda in the future!”
“Mikayla stayed with our active Jack Russell for 2 weeks while we were away. I never worried about our pup, knowing that she was being taken care of and played with. Mikayla shared updates and pictures, and answered promptly when I checked in with her. I recommend her without hesitation, we have never been so at ease while away.”
“I had a last-minute adjustment to my vacation schedule and needed a sitter and found Shayna. She was super flexible and accommodating, and came to meet my dogs and learn their routine the same day! Shayna provided excellent care for my dogs who are anxious and can sometimes be difficult to care for. I would absolutely use her again for overnight services or walking anytime that we are traveling and she is available! Thank you for taking such good care of my girls💙🐶”
“I highly recommend April! We booked with her for 3 nights of house sitting in our home and our pup had a blast!! April sent regular photos, videos and updates, and our girl got lots of walks, playtime and snuggles. We were so glad to have her and can’t wait to work with her again the next time we go away!”
“Jennifer was fabulous while home sitting and watching our dog for 12 days while we were Florida! She provided daily multiple updates along with pictures of our precious dog. She watered our flowers, gathered all our mail and deliveries, and left everything organized. We never worried once while we were gone, and would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone!”
“OMG we went on vacation for three weeks and left our cat and our home in the care of Lilian, who was a rockstar. She took care of everything, followed all of our instructions and when we came home this time our cat was completely at ease. Usually when we return home from vacation, whether it's a week or longer and we have somebody stop in, we hear it from the cat for a good two weeks waking us up early in the morning rauling, but this time Bella just showed love and has been 100% normal. We would hire her again in our heartbeat. Best decision we ever made!”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful! I have a senior dog and a quirky dog and she took care of them exactly how they needed! I was able to enjoy myself knowing they were in great hands. It was like having a trusted family member watching them.”
“Keirsten was great with my dog Odin. He can be reactive on leash and so we are cautious when having new sitters. Keirsten followed our instructions closely and made sure we were comfortable which was so appreciated!”
“Taylor was a wonderful pet sitter and took excellent care of our two small dogs and our house! She is very warm and friendly and was great with our pets. When we came home after our weekend away, our pets were relaxed and happy. She even baked some cookies for us!”
“I felt very at ease leaving my dog with Christopher. He sent all kinds of great updates, snuggling, and playing. My dog is high energy and reactive, and they got along great. My dog also had a Minor injury and Chris went above and beyond to stay with him and keep an eye on things making sure he couldn’t make it worse.”
About: I always loved and had dogs. Until I had a small size dog I have realized that leaving them at home is very heartbreaking. I have a 12year old Maltese girl. I always looked for someone to take care of her when I was not available. Now, I want to be that person for your little precious ones. I can be their companion when you are not available. I can maintain the same standards you provide as much as I can. Little ones have access to my couch, bed, lap as long as they want or I have different types of beddings around my apartment if they feel like being alone. (My dog is very independent, sometimes she prefers sleeping alone.) They won't be alone for a long time. Maybe just a short period of time such as grocery visit, I have a camera at my home so I can monitor how they are doing. Looking forward to meet them soon! ❤️ I’m currently studying and working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pups in my care. We usually have two long walks and one shorter outing each day. On weekends, we enjoy exploring nearby parks and spending extra time outdoors. I have a friendly Maltese who enjoys the company of other dogs. My home is pet-proofed and set up to keep pets safe and comfortable, with crates, cozy pet beds, toys, a home monitor, and access to an outdoor area. I follow each pet’s routine closely and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and a calm environment.
“Theo took care of my four dogs, guinea pig, and chickens in my home for four days. My senior dog has health issues and he tended to him with care. All my pets were well taken care of, given plenty of attention, and happy when we returned. Theo informed me when he needed to leave for a short time and made sure the dogs were all secure in the home in their places of comfort. Theo kept me updated several times during the day and provided photos. He cleaned up after himself and my home was left as he found it. We look forward to having Theo care for our pets in the near future.”
“Sam was amazing! We have a very senior dog who has some issues, and Sam was so great with her and so understanding! She kept in contact and sent photos, letting us know how Piper was doing. She went above and beyond, and we came home to a happy dog. I would recommend Sam to everyone! Thank you so much, Sam!”
“Tiffany was great! Our pets had never stayed with anyone except family and she agreed to do a meet and greet with us first to ease our minds. She took everything we said seriously and didn’t make us feel like crazy pet parents! Came back to very happy animals. Will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Lindsay was so amazing. Dozer and Penny love when she comes to take care of them. Lindsay will always put your pet babies first and makes sure they are comfortable, loved, and well cared for!”
“Tony took such good care of our baby! He sent photos and updates. He was super communicative about their walks, feeding times, and made us feel like Reba was fully taken good care of! Thanks Tony!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Londonderry
Our pup loves Skylar and all her scratchies and floor time! She took such great care of him and even did more walks than we typically do- so he was in heaven! The house was also in great shape when we got home! Would definitely book her again if she was staying in the Knoxville area!
We hired Rihana during a July stay at Quechee VT and it was a great experience. We knew that our dog would be nervous in a new setting and stressed from travel. Rihana put our mind at ease about leaving our dog home. Rihana made sure she had key information about our dog beforehand, was sensitive to his dislike of being handled and spoiled him with fabulous enrichment treats. She was super flexible with scheduling and extending her stay. She is also very fun to talk to and provided a lot of great tips for the area.
Jennifer was amazing while we were away on vacation. Upon meeting Jennifer I knew she would be a great fit for us. Our dogs loved her and she is on top of everything. Our dogs were well taken care of and I received notes and pictures all week. I never once worried while we were away. Will definitely use her again and would highly recommend !
Catie is the best! Sadie (my German Shepard) liked her right away. Catie walked her each day and most often twice. She sent pictures daily as well! I was gone 5 days and when I returned you could tell Sadie had grown to feel very comfortable with Catie. My home was neat and tidy! Vacuumed and clean sheets on the bed! They don’t come any better than Catie! I will be hiring her again when I go away!

We were very happy with Hannah. She got on really well with both of our dogs and they seemed really comfortable with her. She was a lovely person and we would definitely recommend her. She kept us in touch with how everything was going and sent us nice photos.
Andrea watched our two dogs and did a fantastic job! Especially given that it was a last minute request she was incredible to work with and the dogs loved her right off the bat! Would recommend her to anyone, and look forward to working with her in the future! Thank you Andrea!!
Danielle was awesome and handled probably the weirdest request effortlessly. We asked Danielle to come to our RV to watch our dogs while we were in a wedding. We got updates, pictures, she gave meds, everything was perfect. We appreciate her so much and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!

FAQs for House Sitting - Londonderry
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Londonderry on Rover is $66.43 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 1,793 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Londonderry. 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 Londonderry 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 Londonderry 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 Londonderry 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.

- 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.
