“Malika was amazing. We had a couple hiccups while we were away with security system batteries and some mail and Malika was gracious enough to be a helping hand beyond the house-sitting/petsitting duties. She also had cleaned to make sure we came home to a comfortable home after our flight. Much appreciated! And the animals were happy too!”
“Seraphina and Elsa enjoyed their vacation with Tammy cat sitting them 😻. And this cat mama can enjoy her time away knowing that Tammy cares for them like they are her own pets! Thanks.”
“So glad to have found Gilda to housesit and take care of my 2 older and somewhat high maintenance dogs while I was away on vacation. She was very caring, conscientious, thoughtful, kind, and generous with her time. She gave medication for my oldest dog and was very patient with getting my picky eaters to eat their food. I highly recommend Gilda for pet and house sitting. She is wonderful!”
About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I do not have the same schedule weekly, so I will constantly update my availability. I only know my availability up to 3 weeks in advance. Unless I have to work very early the next day, I am available for overnights at least 3 days a week (typically). I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.
“Alissa was great! She was very punctual and communicative! She sent me so many photos of my babies which I love as an anxious mama! She did amazing with our 6 animals which isn’t always easy! She also did great with our dog Jasmine who takes some time warming up to new people! She worked with Jasmine until she was comfy and Jasmine ended up cuddling her later that night! Definitely will book with her again!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with our pups. She gave daily updates and pictures, very communicative, and we could tell our pups were well taken care of when we got home. Highly recommend her! We will definitely use her again.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our furr babies!! Thank you for being so trust worthy and communicative. I knew they were in good hands and was able to relax while out of town. Also, thank you for taking care of the house. Will book again!”
“Sarah did a great job pet/house sitting for us. She sent lots of photos of our pets which we really enjoyed receiving and when we returned home, our house was clean and the pets were very well taken care of. Would definitely recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs.”
“Michelle did a great job. We really appreciated her assistance on such little notice for her. Diesel was very happy. Would strongly recommend Michelle to everyone. We will be using her again in the very near future!!!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we really lucked out finding Megan!! I couldn’t speak highly enough about her attention to detail, awesome communication, and loving care for our elderly Boston Terrier. Definitely recommend Megan and hope to welcome her to our home again soon ?”
“Trinity did such an excellent job. She stayed in our house for 10 days. She was very responsive and sent lots of updates, and did a great job taking care of the house and our two dogs. Would recommend her to anyone and definitely will use her again!”
“Jessica dropped-in several times per day this weekend and took care of our sweet Sophie! This was our first experience with Rover and Jessica and we are so pleased with her services! We have never left Sophie alone overnight and we didn’t worry in the least! Jessica gave us updates and sent pictures during her visits which put our minds at ease! Highly recommend Jessica for all of your fur-baby needs!🐾”
“Aimee was AMAZING!! She watched our two dogs, one of which is still very much a puppy and she handled everything seamlessly. She follow all directions with Maurice who needs medicine, took them on their scheduled walks, and constantly updated me with pictures ! I highly recommend !!!”
“Natalie did a great job with our 2 big boys, one of which is a senior, high maintenance, English Lab. We didn’t worry about them once while we were away. In addition, when we got home, the house was spotless.”
About: I have had dogs and cats virtually my whole life. I am very experienced in feeding, giving pills, taking pets outside, etc. I have worked at Fishers Veterinary Hospital for a little under a year now as part of the patient care team. I am heading off to IU in the fall to major in Biology with a Pre-Vet track. I would love to help care for your pets! I currently work part-time at a veterinary hospital and receive my schedule a month in advance. Because of this, I can usually plan ahead and provide reliable availability. Feel free to reach out with your dates, and I’ll be happy to let you know if I’m available! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Through my experience working at a veterinary hospital, I have learned how to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort and how to handle animals calmly and safely. I will carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions and provide updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, compassion, and the same level of care I would want for my own pets.
“Jasmine did a great job house sitting for our high energy dog while we were gone. Definitely put our mind at ease for the week and would for sure go back at Jasmine again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Luxhaven is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Luxhaven
Tracy was absolutely fantastic! She cared so well for our fur baby and kept us up to date with texts and frequent photos / videos. Our pup doesn’t do well with fireworks, so we were a little nervous to leave him over the Fourth. Tracy let us know how he was doing and able to administer his anxiety meds when necessary. Louie was so well cared for and we were kept updated with the best videos. We will definitely be using Tracy again!
Kylie was great with our two dogs! She was flexible scheduling a meet and greet with us, and communicated promptly the whole time. We received photos while we were away, and came back to the house just as we had left it. I would absolutely recommend Kylie for anyone looking for a pet sitter!
We had such a great experience with Jessica who both pet and house sat for us! From the start, she was easygoing, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everything ran smoothly while we were away. Our pets (one anxious dog and one bossy cat) were happy, well cared for, and honestly seemed a little disappointed when we came home - which says a lot! The house was just as we left it (if not cleaner), and we really appreciated the daily updates and photos along the way. It made being away so much less stressful. We'd absolutely trust Jessica again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, kind care.

FAQs for House Sitting - Luxhaven
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Luxhaven on Rover is $64.2 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 1,524 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Luxhaven. 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 Luxhaven 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 Luxhaven 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 Luxhaven 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.
