About: • Experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels • Comfortable with both small dogs and larger, high-energy breeds • Familiar with leash manners and crate routines Flexible for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and house sitting. I plan ahead to keep routines consistent and communicate scheduling clearly before each booking. Repeat walks welcome. I follow each dog’s routine closely and adjust care based on their size, energy level, and personality. I prioritize leash awareness, safety, consistent boundaries, and clear communication. I keep environments clean, secure, and low-stress while following any care instructions provided, whether your dog is crate trained or free roaming. My home is best suited for one large dog or up to two smaller dogs at a time, with nearby access to parks, trails, and regular walking routes.

About: Hi there! I'm a college student on summer break with tons of free time and a huge love for animals! I've grown up around dogs and pets my whole life and have always enjoyed caring for them. Whether your pet is full of energy or more of a cuddle bug, I'm here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you're away. I'm very active and would be thrilled to take your dog on adventures such as beach walks, redwood hikes, or just fun neighborhood strolls. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to match your pet’s needs, whether that means extra playtime, lots of snuggles, or sticking to a specific routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or just keeping your pet company during the day. With my flexible schedule and love for animals I’d be honored to care for your pet like they’re my own. I have a two year old pitbull named Alfred who is a very active pup. I try to take him on hikes to the river or to the beach most days. My girlfriend also has two dogs who I help to care for when I can. I have a very open summer with lots of free time and I would love to spend that time with your animals. I care for each pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in any environment. I’ll stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel at ease. I’m happy to take your dog on as many walks—or runs!—as they need, and I’m great at following specific instructions, whether it’s feeding times, medication, or special routines. Every pet is unique, and I’m here to make sure their needs are met with care and attention.
“Lara was a great communicator throughout the whole process. She sent photos of our pups who we were missing and spent time playing and walking them. Very professionally and kind! First time using Rover; would definitely use again and rehire Lara!”
“Dan and Allison were great sitters! They took my last minute request and had great communication from the start. They took great care of my mini frenchie Scarlet. They sent photo updates and left the house spotlessly clean exactly how I left it. Would definitely hire them again!”
“McKenzie did an amazing job taking care of our 3 month old German Shepard mix for a week. She kept us updated, followed our instructions and was always super responsive! Highly recommended!”
About: I have loved animals my entire life. Throughout college and high school, I worked as a dog walker for Wag and a kennel attendant at the local vet. I currently work on boats and do this in the off-season or when things are slow. I love spending time with animals and will treat your baby like one of my own, with lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. If you have more questions please reach out :) I work on boats and my schedule varies. I typically update my calendar to reflect that. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :) I am more than happy to watch your pets in your home. I rent so I need to get approval from my landlords before taking requests in my own home

“Samantha was wonderful with our senior dogs! She also kept the house clean and sent us plenty of pictures so that we never missed our dogs too much! We can tell that they were very well cared for during our trip.”
About: I love all animals and have a lot of experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, rats, opossums, raccoons and squirrels! I have a pretty open schedule. I am active and enjoy hiking and adventuring. I live in a cabin tucked into the woods a short walk from the river. There is a fence around the house but it is a mountain fence so i usually use a strong lead for yard time. If you have any questions feel free to reach out(: thank you! i’m excited to hear from you! Pet care is my main job! I love spending my days caring for animals and having a good time together! I am available short notice as well. i have a dog to keep yours company. she’s 9 pounds and gets along with everyone and everything. i am available to sit at your house or my house if you’d like to send your pet on a mountain river vacation. i have a porch and a lead in my yard to let them relax outside, along with taking walks to the river behind my house (:
“Sophia watched our energetic 85lb Golder Retriever Blu over a long weekend when we found out we had to leave town on short notice. She responded quickly and we were able to get a visit in prior to us leaving. She was responsive and also provided a couple pictures of a happy Blu during our trip. Everything was in order when we arrived back home. Great Rover. Thank you Sophia!”
“Caring and conscientious pet/house sitter. Emily cared for my cat and home, including feeding my fish, while I was away. She was easy to talk with, understood how I wanted things done and kept everything (everyone) safe and happy while I was away.”
About: I’ve spent years caring for animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a senior dog who needs extra patience and support, or anything in between, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to them. I prioritize safety, consistency, and lots of love so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. My goal is to treat every animal with the same love and attention as my own, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to accommodate a wide variety of pet care needs, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests whenever possible. Because I have open availability, I can provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistent care rather than rushing between commitments. I’m committed to being dependable, responsive, and making sure your pet receives the time and care they deserve while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I believe the best care starts with earning their trust. I’ll always move at your pet’s pace, respecting their personality, comfort level, and routine while creating a calm, positive environment. Their safety is my highest priority, so I’ll remain attentive on walks, during playtime, and throughout every visit, keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or anxious, I’ll provide patient, thoughtful care that helps them feel secure, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Celeste was a great house and dogsitter. She is a tremendous communicator. She was so conscientious and made sure that our dog's routine was kept and that more important that he was given lots of love and attention. She left the house in great condition. We would definitely use her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Hermon
We were nervous to leave our two kitties after they both recently experienced some health scares, but Elysé was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind, thorough and professional, sending us daily updates and photos. This was honestly the least stressed we’ve ever felt while away on vacation. We can’t thank or recommend her enough and would love to book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Mount Hermon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Mount Hermon is $21 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $26 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 3,300 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Hermon. 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 Mount Hermon 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 Mount Hermon 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 Mount Hermon 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 Mount Hermon. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
