“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my two Yorkshire terriers. I love the ability to let them stay in their own house and play in their own yard without being crated. Amy made that possible and I will definitely book her services again.”

“Brooke was incredible! She’s the first Rover experience for us and the first person besides family we’ve ever left our cat and dog with. She was highly communicative, sent amazing pictures of our boys, lots of updates, and helped to track our cat’s medical issue very closely. Our slow-to-warm dog took to her immediately, and both animals were cuddling with her which is HUGE! She is obviously a natural with animals, and I’m so glad I was able to enjoy a birthday celebration out of town without having to worry about my babies at home. 10/10 recommend working with her!!!”

“Stefanie is the first house sitter I've ever had in my long history of being a dog Mom. I am wondering what took me so long to choose home comforts over a kennel for my dog Rosie because Stefanie is all that I wanted in a house sitter. When I had to change the reservation last minute, Stefanie was completely understanding and accepting of the change. I know that Rosie was in the best of care and I loved Stefanie's daily pictures and updates. I didn't worry about my pet at all. Stefanie is very neat, respectful, and responsive. I will definitely ask her back.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. My neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs while away. I work full time, and I am looking to walk dogs in my free time. I am available on Tuesday’s, Thursday’s, Friday’s, Saturday’s, and Sunday’s all day. I have two dogs at home, and I grew up surrounded by dogs. I currently walk and feed them daily. I am looking for dog walking opportunities within my community.

“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”

“Morgan did a FABULOUS job watching my two dogs while I was away for the weekend. I was nervous about having a new petsitter come, but Morgan put my fears at ease instantly. She sent awesome photo updates all weekend long. She was on time and super attentive to my dogs. I know they were happy having her watch them. And I'm pretty sure my house was better organized than when I left it! Thank you Morgan. She is a very professional and caring petsitter and I'm happy to provide this review!”

About: 15 years caring for my family dog and now my own dog, plus regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for neighbors, friends, and family pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog you’ll see in my photos, is my boyfriend’s dog; she lives at his house, not mine, but I walk and care for her often, and at over 100 pounds she’s proof that a big dog who pulls or needs a confident handler is no problem for me. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet’s needs and I always have your vet’s information on hand in case of an emergency. At home it’s just me and Hank, my golden retriever. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with grassy areas, sidewalks for walking, and a designated pet relief area right outside. Hank is friendly with other dogs, so I’ll be upfront about whether your pet would be a good match before booking. I work from home on a standard weekday schedule, so I’m available for early morning visits before 9, midday walks and drop-ins, and evenings. Weekends are wide open. I can usually accommodate same-day requests; just message me. Safety Your pet’s safety comes first in every decision I make. I keep dogs leashed and harnessed any time we’re outside my apartment, including in hallways, elevators, and the lobby, since other residents and dogs come around corners without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust; short routes and shaded paths in heat, and salt-free surfaces and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I collect your vet’s name and number, an emergency contact, and any medical history I should know about, including allergies, medications, and reactivity around other dogs. If anything seems wrong, you’ll hear from me immediately. Trust I’m a full-time HR professional, so handling sensitive information carefully is already how I work. I treat your keys, door codes, and home the same way. Keys are labeled with your pet’s name only, never an address or unit number, and they’re stored securely at my place when I’m not using them. I send photos and an update after every single visit, so you always know exactly what happened and when. I don’t bring anyone along on visits, and I don’t share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If plans change on my end, you’ll hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment I live in a pet-friendly apartment community in Lansdale with sidewalks, grassy areas, and a designated pet relief area just outside the building. My own dog, Hank, lives here with me, and I’m upfront about whether he’s a good match for your pet before I accept a booking. My home is dog-proofed already; trash is secured, cords are tucked away, and anything unsafe stays out of reach. In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and thermostat.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mainland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 5,512 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mainland. 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 Mainland 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 Mainland 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 Mainland 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 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 Meet & Greet .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mainland. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
