“Brigid was extremely professional and thorough taking care of our dog. She made sure he had everything he needed, from walks, food, and attention (most importantly). She provided regular updates along with pictures to us and it was apparent that our dog felt safe and sound. Highly recommended.”

About: Hello everybody! I am an animal lover with professional and personal experience caring for ALL animals. Ive worked in various animal hospitals over the course of 5 years with veterinary technician experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, rodents, and reptiles. I have experience bathing dogs as well as administering medication, subcutaneous fluids, injections, and syringe / tube feeding. If your pet requires any of this special care I would be a great caregiver for them! Outside of work I also have pet sat in my own home as well as clients homes. I work from home, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and they will have constant attention and company. They will not be left alone for longer than 3 hrs. I am a single mother to a well behaved 2 year old boy, who understands how to respect animal boundaries :) we are very active and enjoy the outdoors. I'm sure your dog would love to accompany us on my outdoor adventures (Hiking, running, walking, park and beach visits, ect.) ! I do not own any cages/crates as I prefer to allow pets free roam. If you would like your pet to be crated or know that he/she chews things please provide one for their stay!

About: I have 27 years experience caring for dogs, among many other animals of all breeds, sizes, needs, and ages. Animals will receive the same care that I would expect for mine and be treated as members of the family. They will be well attended to, and receive love and care from not just myself, but all members of the family. They are permitted on the furniture, in bed with us and to be where we are at anytime. There are beds and blankets in every room for their comfort. I am home full time so there is nearly always someone here with the pups and they are cared for and loved by all members of the family. Dogs can be fed up to 4x/day. There are cats in the household (they usually confine themselves to their basement palace,) children ages 2-9 all whom are extremely good with animals. We are a happy, hopping home, but able to provide quiet time and space for dogs who are easily overwhelmed. Your dogs will be well entertained with cuddles, plenty of time outside, games, love and toys galore. Dogs are not generally taken on walks around the neighborhood, unless requested, but do receive plenty of indoor and outdoor playtime with us (fetch, frisbee, etc) for physical and mental stimulation. If we do plan on going for a nice walk or a hike, the pups will accompany us. Single overnight booking includes 24 hours of care (e.g. 1p Sat-1p Sun, or any combo of 24 hours) with a total of 3 hours of leeway given. If you will be expecting the stay to be more than 24 hours (27 with leeway) please note in your message or book as one overnight and one day care (e.g. 10am Sat-7p Sun.) Walks and more are available as add on services. Add on service rates and info is sent upon booking or by request prior to booking, as Rover, unfortunately, does not have a spot for us to offer these and book it with the stay. All pet parents receive text and photo updates, unless not desired. We take safety very seriously: -All dogs are fed separately -Water is always available indoors and out. -House is kept dog proof from dangerous items the dogs could chew or eat. -Someone is always outside with the guest dog. -Exposure and indoor climate are limited, or adjusted, based on the dog's tolerance. -I am well educated in pet first aid and am also a human nurse -I have many years of dog training experience, including my own service dog. -In the extremely unlikely event that a dog would escape, all guest pups wear a bright orange collar stating that they are a guest in an unfamiliar area and our phone number, along with their normal collar and tags. -For the escape artist, again, in the very unlikely event they would become separated from us, they wear a very efficient gps tag to allow for a very rapid recovery. Escape artists are also attached to a 100 foot long lead while in the yard just as a safety precaution (our yard is well fenced but a very crafty dog could possibly find a way out). Your dog is our priority and his love and care is our passion. Please ask if you have any other questions. We work from home and someone is here 90% of the time. We can tailor our schedule to your specifications or as your pet needs. I have a large fenced in yard (currently the main fencing is damaged and shorter fencing of 3.5 feet in height is filling in the gaps. We can put your dog on a long lead to be able to roam a bit or take outside on leash only if the short fencing will not be adequate to contain your dog.) Someone is always outside with your dog to ensure their safety. We have gates and cat doors to separate animals if the need should arise or during feeding time for your dog and ours.) Our black lab is extremely submissive and playful and will keep your dogs entertained as long as they want to play. She will leave them alone if they do not. Our youngest child, though very good with animals, is never left alone with the guest dog(s).

She also expertly cleaned up my house from the sick dog. I highly recommend her to anyone.”

“This was our first time using Rover for a house/cat sit, and we had an amazing experience with Krystie. Before booking, Krystie answered all questions that we had and asked really good questions to better understand our Smallfry and put our minds at ease. She arrived promptly on the day of the sit so we could walk through the house and introduce her to our cat and how best to care for him. During the stay, Krystie provided multiple status updates each day with photos and video. We could tell by our cat’s behavior that he was very well cared for and made a new best friend. It is always tough leaving a pet for vacation, but with Krystie we knew Smallfry was happy and in good hands. We would definitely book Krystie again in the future and would highly recommend her for anyone else looking for a sitter with an abundance of communication, experience, and kindness.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Animals are a passion of mine, as well as traveling, music and nutrition. The slogan Eat, Play, Love is a spin off of my favorite movie: Eat, Pray, Love. I grew up with dogs, cats and bunnies. I loved each & every one of them. When I got older I turned my passion into a form of income. I’m a former kennel-hand. I’ve been a house/ pet sitting for years now but just as a side job & usually by word of mouth. Now I’ve turned it into a full-time business. I’ve dealt with breeds ranging from golden retrievers and labs to rottweilers and pitbulls to chihuahuas and french bulldogs. I believe I am fully capable to properly and lovingly take care of your furry friend(s) ! I walk many dogs throughout the week. I housesit whenever someone needs me. Then at home, I help out with my family’s dogs. I’m really flexible, I’m willing to work weekends & holidays as well. I care for your furry friends like they’re my own, with lots of love. I pride myself on leaving a home better than I found it.

About: Hi! I bring genuine warmth and dependable care to every dog I watch. Whether going on energizing walks, maintaining routine feeding schedules, or providing calm, attentive companionship, I treat every dog like family. Responsible and attentive, I keep pets safe, happy, and well-loved whenever their owners are away. I am currently working as a Physical and Health Education Teacher and when I am done teaching for the day I like to spend my extra time walking our furry friends to help me save money to buy my first home. I am free weekends as well so afternoons and weekends and even holidays work for me! For me, it's all about safety and fun! I care for your pets as if they were my own, showering them with love and affection.

Michael genuinely cares about learning each dog’s personality and providing the best care possible. Leaving your pup behind can be stressful, but we had peace of mind knowing Atlas was in good hands. Even when our flight got delayed, Michael was flexible and super accommodating. Thank you!”

She was extremely thorough and detail-oriented, executing each request and keeping our dog on schedule as much as possible. Sending a bunch of pictures and detailed recaps for each visit/walk.

I didn't give Brigid an easy first go-round...my rescue had only been with me ~2 weeks before I needed to go see family for a long weekend. So both my pups were still getting used to each other and adapting to this new normal...and then mom LEAVES!!? She handled them both so well, calmed all of my anxiety because she sent SO many pictures and little "what they've done today" summaries. She even left a family event early because they were causing havoc in my apartment! It's exactly what I've been looking for in a sitter for my babies. :) She is wonderful!!

Jaylynn was absolutely amazing with my 3 spicy Chihuahuas! 🐶❤️ She handled all three of them exceptionally well and treated them with so much love, patience, and care. Even my spiciest one absolutely loved her—which says A LOT! 😂 they even had their own fashion show. Jaylynn stayed overnight in our home for 4 nights, and throughout the entire stay she was trustworthy, reliable, and provided us with multiple updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Jaylynn to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy sitter. We will absolutely be rebooking her for next month! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alexyss was absolutely amazing. Our dogs are our babies and we have never left them with anyone other than Family, but after Alexyss was recommended to me by someone I trust, we decided to set up a meet and greet. It went very well and We felt comfortable and knew that our boys were in good hands. Alexyss’s history working in emergency vet offices was extra reassuring and honestly one of the main reasons I felt so comfortable. She was very communicative, thorough, and left our home in perfect condition. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust!

FAQs for House Sitting - Mine Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Mine Hill is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $85 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 10,262 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mine Hill. 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 Mine Hill 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 Mine Hill 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 Mine Hill 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 Mine Hill. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
