Hadija took excellent care of our dog and cats while we were away. She provided regular updates and photos and was even able to administer meds that I know are tricky. So glad to have found a wonderfully reliable petsitter! Thank you Hadija!

We had an amazing experience with our sitter, Mariia! She took incredible care of our five dogs—Leo, Luna, Mika, Azul, and Arya. Handling five dogs is no easy task, but she was so patient, attentive, and truly caring with each one. We received amazing, daily, and detailed updates, which made us feel completely at ease knowing our babies were safe and loved. We came home to happy, relaxed fur babies, which says everything. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend sweet Mariia to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.

Yana took the time to visit with our family before staying at our home with Charlie. He had instantly taken to her gentle manner which made us feel so comfortable. She exercised patience with his sometimes stubborn but lovable manner. We loved her daily texts with pictures outlining how the day went. I feel at ease knowing she is caring for our Charlie.

At the risk of writing such a glowing review that Jennifer becomes so popular that she's no longer available to watch our boys, I have to say having her pet sit was an across the board excellent experience. Our prior sitter bailed on us last minute and Jennifer came through with professionalism on very short notice. She came very prepared and took notes on how we like to have things done. The photos she sent every few days of our trip made us very comfortable with the level of care our boys were receiving and made it clear how much they enjoyed her company. I think it's safe to say they are still missing her! I highly recommend hiring Jennifer, and look forward to doing so again soon!

Jess was absolutely wonderful! She was accommodating when my plans changed and I had to change the date of the stay which was awesome of her to do for me! My dogs absolutely loved her. They both got super excited when she came over. I have a brand new 4 month old puppy that I was scared to leave but Jess made me feel so much better about leaving my baby. Will absolutely be using her in the future. Thanks Jess!!

About: Been around dogs my entire life and when I was in high school I got one of my own. A beautiful German Shepherd I named Rocky, who stole my heart. His energy was always high and puppy like, but he was well behaved and calm when it was time to be. He has recently passed, but he lives on in my heart. I raised him on my own from a pup through potty training, chewing, and walking on leash. He would respond to basic and advanced commands also able to walk off leash without running off. I have recent experience with senior care just having gone through caring for a sick and elderly dog. He was around 95 pounds and I was able to help him get around, I’m capable to assist any elderly dog however they might need it. Started my own personal training business, but most people are available after normal business hours. So that leaves me free with large breaks during the day which would be perfect for me to baby sit while their owner is working. My schedule is mostly flexible, allowing for long walks and supervised relaxing, but if any type of emergency were to come up, my partner works from home to administer care and constant love so don't be worried your pet will never be alone. We have a house with a fenced in yard. We can walk, play or just hangout. I like to go on a walk first to make sure your dog is comfortable with me, and I will do whatever is possible to make sure your dog is loved how you would love them. If they’re comfortable using a crate I can provide them with one and a soft bed. I have dog bowls for water and will feed them as often as you prefer. Your pet will be physically and mentally simulated making sure they don’t get bored and are always having fun.

Mike was an incredible sitter for our dog! He was available for a last minute request over the holidays and went above and beyond to take care of our dog! Our dog has a bit of leash reactivity and doesn’t always take quickly to new people - when Mike came by for a meet and greet our dog instantly warmed up to him which gave us so much confidence in trusting Mike to take care of him. He was comfortable and experienced with leash reactivity and navigated walks flawlessly! Would highly recommend Mike! Thanks again.

I’m currently working on a few business projects at home so I’m very flexible and will have plenty of time to play with your pet! I have a cozy home and a few kitties who are comfortable with dogs but I can easily keep them in another room if needed!

About: I’ve been a professional pet caregiver for the last 25 years, so it’s safe to say I’ve seen it all! Whether it’s a high-energy dog walk or quality time with a picky cat, I’m all about positive reinforcement and understanding what makes each pet tick. I also have extensive experience with TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) and managing feral colonies, so I’m very comfortable with shy, nervous, or 'difficult' personalities. From adventurous pups to senior cats who just want a quiet head scratch, I’m here to make sure every animal feels safe and loved while you’re away. I take my job seriously, but my main goal is to be the best part of your pet's day! As a teacher, my schedule for pet sitting is mostly part-time, but I’m very flexible and always try my best to accommodate your needs! Whether you need a regular mid-day check-in or a last-minute visit, I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits perfectly for your pet. Just send me a message and we can make it work! Requests a meet n greet only if the location is convenient for both parties...🙏🏼. When your dog stays with us, they’re truly part of the family! We share our home with two very friendly cats who are used to having canine visitors, and my entire household is made up of skilled animal lovers. Because we’re a family of 'pet people,' your pup will get constant attention, rounds of play, and plenty of couch cuddles. If your dogs are cat-friendly and love being around people, they’re welcome to stay with us for as long as they need—we’ll treat them just like one of our own!

Madeline was awesome! She took great care of my two dogs while I was in Disney for 3 nights. She stayed overnight She was prompt on her arrival each evening for the dogs dinner time. She played with the dogs, sat outside with them and watched them run in the yard and she sent updates 3-5 times a day letting me enjoy the fun my pups were having with her. I highly recommend Madeline !!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Manville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Manville on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 5,734 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Manville. 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 Manville 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 Manville 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 Manville 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 Manville. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
