âBecky did a fantastic job as an overnight sitter for my two cats. One of my cats is insulin dependent, and Becky was fastidious about administering his insulin via a shot every 12 hours. She sent great updates and had very thoughtful questions. I will definitely be rebooking Becky! My cats were very chill when I returned home, and my house was just as I left it.â
âAmazing job! So happy with the care and attention Bayleigh provided to our pets and our home. We would love to have her help us again in the future as she did a fantastic job!â
âWe canât say enough good things about Sydney! She took care of our dog Ace, our cat Nala, and our ducks for an entire week while we were away, and she was absolutely amazing!! Having so many different animals with different routines can be a lot, but she handled everything perfectly and gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. I loved the daily updates and pictures that we would get! She was reliable, caring, attentive, and treated our animals like they were her own. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything exactly as it should be. It meant so much to us knowing Ace, Nala, and the ducks were in such good hands. She even went as far as taking the trash out, stripping the bed and starting the laundry!! We are so grateful for her and would 100% trust her to watch our babies again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, loving, and truly wonderful with animals! â¤ď¸đžđŚâ
âKathleen did an excellent job taking care of my pets. She was very good with communication and responsive. Kept my house clean and everything was well taken care of. My pets enjoyed spending time with her and I will definitely book again!â
âThis was the 1st time we had Macy and was very, very happy with the service that she provided. Our little Chihuahua, Rosebud Marie, took to her and became her snuggle bug while she watched her for 10 days. She gave us a "Pupdate" everyday with pictures and we love it because it made us feel like we were right there. She will be definitely be our puppy sitter from now on. I would be recommending her to anyone that ask me who I had to watch my little girl. The next time she will be watching our little girl and our new little boy. P.S. Rosebud Marie says "Macy was the BEST" and wants her as her puppy sitter from now on. <3 <3â
âEmina and Jackson were amazing! They sent me so many pictures throughout my trip. My dogs take a little while to warm up to people and they were very patient and came to meet them before so the dogs could get to know them. I will definitely use them again in the future!â
About: I really like to meet animals where they are. If they are high energy and love to play then that is what we will be doing. If they are a lounge on the couch kind of dog then I will lay with them. I currently have one dog and I have been able to teach him many tricks like roll and high five! I also have 3 cats who keep me busy but in a good way! I have dog sat before many times but I am excited to meet new animals on Rover. I work full time on the weekdays from 7:45-4. I would also be able to be at your home for a few minutes during my lunch break depending on the location. I have full availability Friday night - Sunday night I always make sure that I am following their routine and doing things the way that you would do them! I will ask any questions if I have them to make sure I am doing everything right. The animals would never be able to escape as I am very careful with doors and I always wrap leashed around my wrist for a second layer of protection
âDebra was fantastic!! Our pup took to her right away, made him and us feel completely at ease right away. She was so accommodating to our our needs, our pup doesn't like to be alone much, and she spent so much time with him, walked him often and put up with his awful snoring at night with no complaints. We got lots of pictures and updates throughout each day which we appreciated! She came to our home for 4 days and left it in perfect shape. Highly recommend Debra, she is very kind and has a calm spirit, which our pup meshed with perfectly. We look forward to booking her again for all of our tripsâ¤â
âHannah was fantastic! She took very good care of my two fur babies. She was a great communicator as well. There was a little glitch with her ability to get into my house, and Hannah remained calm and figured out the situation before I even had a chance to respond to her text. I highly recommend Hannah!â
âWe couldnât be happier with our experienceâKaren was reliable, communicative, and great with Willie. We received regular updates and came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. Highly recommend and will book again!â
âKristin did a great job looking after our two cats and the house. She kept us informed about how the cats were doing while we were away, and it was clear she gave them plenty of love and attention. Weâll gladly have her back again to kitty-sit.â
âOlivia is a great pet and house sitter! She clearly loves animals and she communicated well with me while she was here. My pets are ornery and she took in all in stride. Highly recommendâ
âKayla was absolutely great! She took great care of my dog while we were on vacation and provided daily updates. I have a nervous dog and he was very comfortable around Kayla. She even cleaned around the house and took care of a few chores while we were away. Highly recommend for dog sitting!â
âWe went away for a week and used Emily to watch our two dogs. She stayed in our home with them and sent photos and videos throughout the duration of her stay. The dogs seemed to enjoy their time with her, she played frisbee with the young one and equally shared pet and cuddling time with them both! Will be using her again in the future. Thanks Emily!â
âTully is amazing and is now at the top of our list! Our anxious Aussie LOVED Tully from their first meeting and had a blast with her new best friend Tully! Highly recommended!!â
About: Ever since I was a very little girl, animals have been the object of my attention. My parents still love to tell stories about how as soon as I could walk, as little as 2, I would walk into pet shops and ask to hold snakes and other âscaryâ animals. I love them all and have had the luxury of either owning or taking care of every kind of pet. I truly mean everyâ dogs, cats, fish, turtles, lizards, birds (ducks, rescues, etc), tarantulas, frogs, newts, axolotls, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, moles, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, and Iâm sure Iâm missing some. Iâve also taken care of an extensive array of bugs. Just ask! While I mainly and primarily care for furry friendsâ I have lots of experience with other pets. :^) Iâm currently only working with Rover and with Wag Caregiver, so I am always at home! I spend all of my time at home with otherâs people pets. I am almost exclusively at home. I leave to go to the store and run errands, but otherwise, Iâm a complete home body. I have a fenced in yard, paired with a very safe and pet friendly neighborhood to walk your dogs. Aside from that, my home is perfectly equipped for your furry (or maybe not so furry!) companions. I work from home as a stay at home parent, so I am always with your loved one(s) and they have my undivided attention and love!
About: Hey, Iâm Myla! Iâve lived with dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters and guinea pigs my whole life. I have my own cats at home who I love dearly. I have 2 poodles, a golden retriever, and a golden doodle at my parents house in my hometown. Iâve grown up taking care of them my whole life. Iâm a government employee with Dauphin County and I am a trusted reliable sitter. I am a government employee who has a typical 9-5 ~flexible~ schedule and Iâm looking for drop ins or some over nights to get started. My cats are strictly indoor but usually tend to stay in my room at my house. They are good around other animals and are actually certified as my emotional support animals. I always make sure to shut any doors leading to outside and will assure your baby is safe!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Allen
Teddy was outstanding with our pet kids! For a little background, we have a 6-year-old Staffy with a personality all his own, a 15-year-old Yorkiepoo with a medication list longer than your arm, and a cat somewhere between 10 and 12 who weâre pretty sure thinks heâs a dog at this point. Needless to say, our crew comes with a few quirks! Teddy handled all of it like a pro. He cared for them as if they were his own, kept the house in great shape, and stayed in touch with us throughout the day so we never had to wonder how things were going. He was everything we hoped to find in a sitter, and knowing our pets were in such good hands made it that much easier to enjoy our time away. Weâll absolutely be using Teddy again and wouldnât hesitate to recommend him!
Isabella was great! She arrived right on time, kept us updated while we were away, and took good care of the dogs and our home. Everything we asked her to handle was taken care of, and it was nice knowing the dogs were in good hands for the night. We came home to everything just as we left it and happy pups. Weâd definitely feel comfortable having Isabella stay with them again.
Brittany is the best! I didn't think I would ever find a dogsitter that could handle my high maintenance dogs, but Brittany seemed to handle them with ease. She communicates well and was accommodating to schedule changes. I would absolutely use Brittany's services again!
Ari was wonderful with our little pups and cat. She sent daily updates, pictures and video. My one girl, Sophie, had an accident in the house and Ari had no problem cleaning up after her. We give our dogs a mix of home-cooked food and kibble - Ari had no problem with dispensing their food all week. We will definitely book with her again! Ari is very personable and pleasure to talk with. She came out 2 times before our trip to meet with our little ones. She really made us comfortable leaving our little guys with her knowing they would be in good hands!
Becky stayed with our two eccentric and very spoiled dogs for a week. We have never left them before and were very anxious! She sent pictures and texted every day! We couldnât have been happier with her loving care of them. We will take another short trip in September and Becky will care for them. I canât imagine anyone giving them more love and attention and going the extra mile to make them comfortable than Becky.
Christian was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met him, we knew Dobby was going to be in wonderful handsâand that heâd found a new best friend. Christian took such great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and very loved-on pup! We would absolutely love to have Christian stay in our home with Dobby again and couldnât recommend him more highly.
Stephanie was wonderful with our pups - this was the first time using her and for a week long trip, so we were a little apprehensive with a new sitter, but she was very responsible with the dogs; communicative with daily updates and photos; accommodated our two dogs of pretty varying ages and needs, working well with both; and left the house in good order. We will definitely use her again!
Morgan V did a great job house sitting overnight for our 3 dogs and two cats.she sent multiple photos and sent updates. All three of the pups needed medications ( they are 10 - 15 1/2 years old ) and Morgan handled the job perfectly. One of the pups was stressed from a severe thunderstorm and Morgan alerted us that she was keeping him close to comfort him. The entire crew seemed stress feee and quite happy once we returned home. Even our one cat, who is painfully shy and never comes out of her room when visitors are in the home, allowed Morgan to see her and take a photo. We will definitely keep Morgan V on our preferred sitter list. Thank you Morgan!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Mount Allen is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $40 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 petâs 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.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Mount Allen walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mount Allen 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Mount Allen 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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 Mount Allen. 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.
