“Lisa and Archie bonded immediately. We have an amazing backyard for Archie to play in. Lisa sent me pics showing how much fun he was having and pics of Archie resting. Very grateful that Archie was well taken care of 🌷💕🌷💕”
“Autumn is such an amazing dog sitter, I wish I could give her a 10 star rating! She takes such good care of our 2 dogs, so much exercise and love while we are gone. She’s a gift to doggy parents!”
“Alex did an amazing job! She was great at sending pictures and updates of our dog. We could tell how loved our dog felt. He got walks everyday and lots of cuddles! Our house was in great shape after her stay too. Couldn’t recommend more!”
“Samantha was great! Rosie, Lilo, and Luna will miss her! I would highly recommend Samantha and will ask her to sit with our dogs again. We are very very happy with her and appreciate the updates she gave while we were out of town. Thank you so much Samantha!!”
About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and have always loved all kinds of animals—chickens, goats, dogs—you name it! (Yes, I’ve had all of them!) My family currently has three cats: Harry, Thomas, and Luke. We recently said goodbye to our pug, Cooper, after 15 wonderful years. Two Christmases ago, I brought home our current dog, Kyah, for my family. She’s a Great Pyrenees-Anatolian Shepherd mix and my favorite napping partner! I also taught her a few fun tricks—she can turn around, roll over, speak, and, of course, give a good shake. I have experience with animals of all sizes and personalities, and I’d love the chance to care for yours! I'm currently pursuing a bachelors in nursing. My class schedule takes place in the afternoon, and I have no other priorities besides classes and studying. I'm able to go for as many walks as your dog would like, and give endless scratches! They will never be left alone for more than 3.5 hours (at the most). I'm comfortable giving any medications that are needed. I sit for my Aunts two german shepherds who both receive oral medication, as well one of them receiving a specialized raw diet.
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I grew up with a cat and later cared for our family German Shorthaired Pointer for many years. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll follow your care instructions carefully to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. I’ll treat your pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work primarily from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I occasionally work from the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but my schedule is flexible. Our home is calm, loving, and pet-friendly. My children (ages 10 and 12) are kind, respectful, and love animals. Any interaction they have with your pet is always supervised by me. We offer boarding on weekends and weekday stays of up to one week (Friday through Friday), ensuring your pet receives consistent care, attention, and lots of love. I live in a clean, cozy townhouse with plenty of nearby walking paths and open green spaces for walks, exercise, and fresh air. To ensure every pet has enough room to relax and feel comfortable, I only accept small to medium-sized dogs up to 40 pounds for boarding. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, so they feel safe, happy, and like at home.
About: I've had dogs my whole life! My current living situation does not allow animals. Honestly, I am joining Rover to get some dog time and earn some extra cash! I love animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs and their sweet personalities! I have been dog sitting and walking for friends and family for over 7 years independently. I am currently working full-time! I am most free to walk pups early in the morning, in the evening, or on the weekends! I am flexible and very communicative! I moved out from home recently and am really missing my family dogs, so anytime with your dog will be just as fun for me as it is for them! I am a very responsible, able-bodied individual who loves to walk or run with dogs depending on your desire for your pup! I have been pet and home sitting since I was 15, I've never had a bad experience, and love to leave a place and pup better and happier than I found them!
“Kelsey took great care of our dog, Mochi. She asked good questions at our meet and greet. We received a daily photo and update from Kelsey while we were away. Mostly importantly, Mochi was very comfortable with her and we trust our dog's intuition very much :)”
“Justin was great for us! He sent us some pictures and we felt confident that our animals were being well cared for. We would definitely search him out again when we need someone to stay with the animals at our house.”
“We recently had Claire come stay at our place with our two labs for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing. Not only was she very flexible with our constantly changing plans, she also went above and beyond during her stay. We came home to a clean house, and two happy dogs (who got more of a workout in those 2 weeks than they had all winter). We will definitely be using Claire again in the future and would highly recommend her to any other pet owner.”
“Kendra did a great job with our dog Winter, who can be a little nervous in new situations. She communicated well and sent frequent updates and pictures. She even left a custom dog treat and note for Winter. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life a I prefer them to most people! I’m interested in getting your precious animal some fresh air! I am available evenings and early mornings! I prefer long walks, to get a healthy amount of physical exercise! This also gives us time to bond! I can pick up and deliver your dog back to you, well exercised and happy! I will enjoy every moment with that fur baby of yours!
“Jade was very professional and took such great care of our home and our silly dog. She was very communicative and let us know what was going on through pictures and texts. Thank you Jade.”
“Luckily for us, Angela was available for a last minute care and housesit for our Lucy. Angela was absolutely wonderful! She bonded with Lucy easily, kept to her routines and made sure she was given a lot of attention. We returned to a spotless home and a dog that was clearly happy and comfortable in her care. We would not hesitate to use Angela again. Super communicative, flexible and clearly cares about animals!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Loretto
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Loretto on Rover is $27.75 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 3,233 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Loretto. 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 Loretto 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 Loretto 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 Loretto 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Loretto. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
