“Emily was AMAZING as a house sitter! She was so great with our kitty Saber, even when he had some accidents. She honestly went above and beyond to keep the rest of the house clean. She was very responsive and detail-oriented. Cannot recommend more!!!”
“Kendall was beyond friendly and responsible. She was extra caring communicating with us before we booked with her, sending her ETA when she came for a meet and greet when we were looking for a house and dog sitter. Kendall is the perfect house sitter as she is self employed and therefore can do a lot of work from home. She let us know exactly when she had outside commitments such as business meetings so we knew our pup would have plenty of company while we were gone. She also asked many questions to make sure she knew exactly what we were hoping for in terms of care. We received many updates and photos while we were gone and Kendall sounded like she generally enjoyed everything about taking care of our pup. Kendall left our home in spectacular condition. Thank You Kendall!”

“Sierra watched our pups in our home for 10 days over the winter holidays. We have two special needs tripods, one of whom is quite neurotic, so we were nervous about leaving them with a sitter for the first time. Sierra took excellent care of the pups, regularly sent us photos and videos, and administered medications when needed. She gave them lots of cuddles and affection! She was always available via phone and incredibly patient and understanding of my excessive requests for updates. We came home to happy dogs and a spotless house. I can't recommend her highly enough!”
“Alex was great! She saved the day on her first day watching our dogs and house sitting. We had an out of town wedding and I forgot a small bag. She located it and arranged for our friend to pick it up and deliver it the next day. She sent pictures of our 3 dogs every day. We have 2 senior dogs and a silly, quirky 9 year old dog too. She seemed very comfortable with them and they liked her too. We never worried about the dogs or house while we were gone knowing that they were in good care. We would definitely request Alex again in the future if she’s available. 😊🦮”

“Nora was a fantastic pet sitter for my dog. She was very considerate and attentive to learning all the details about my dog. I would gladly have her back again and felt so comfortable with her staying at my home.”
“This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and Kaylynn couldn’t have been more perfect. She kept me updated, consistently checked in regarding my travel plans to support with care, provided quality care and walks and snuggles to my furbabies. I am so grateful for Kaylynn and will definitely hire her again for future pet sitting needs.”
“Celeste was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, thoughtful, and consistently kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog, and seeing how happy and comfortable my dog was in her presence meant everything to me. I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Celeste again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Alexis is wonderfully attentive and communicative and did an excellent job with our senior dogs! We were gone for a week and knew they were in good hands. She was very receptive to our directions and keeping the little old ladies safe and loved. We highly recommend Alexis!
Molly took great care of our three dogs while we were away and kept us updated throughout. Molly was especially patient and understanding with our older Chihuahua. It was clear that our dogs were well cared for and comfortable. We would happily trust her with our pets again and highly recommend her to others.
Ginny took such amazing care of my Tillie-Bean! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages, which made being away from my sweet pea so much easier. Tillie had such a great time that I’m pretty sure she’ll be requesting Ginny as her sitter again in the future! 🐾💕
Nancy did a wonderful job caring for our home and our three very different dogs while we were away. She was responsible, communicative, and great about checking in whenever she had questions. She carefully followed all instructions, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable in her care. We came home to happy dogs and a house that was in great shape. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would absolutely recommend her to others.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lower Rocketts
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lower Rocketts on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,455 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lower Rocketts. 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 Lower Rocketts 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 Lower Rocketts 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 Lower Rocketts 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
