“Rebecca was great with our boys! She was communicative & sent pictures. Our boys are 15 & 10, so they have a whole slew of meds, potions and powders — she handled them like a champ & the boys loved her. Will book her again!!!”
“I have used Laci for both drop in and overnight services. She met with us for a meet and greet before the sitting dates. My Lola took up to her right away. Laci provided updates and picture and followed directions left for her the day of the sittings. I would seek out her service again for sure!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and others dog's for over 10 years now. My family and I have 3 dogs currently and have owned 6 dogs throughout my life of varying sizes. I have dog sat and walked dogs for many of my friends and family over the years with the dogs being in size ranges as big as Great Danes down to little Griffons. In addition I have bathed and brushed dogs for years as well. I of course am also very affectionate towards any dogs, making sure to give them lots of pets and scratches. I will be available between 10 AM-6 PM every weekday unless specified otherwise, though days and hours are mutable and can be subject to change in the future. If I decide to change my hours/days all clients will be notified of the change with ample time to figure something out between us if need be. I will show your dog affection and make sure they have enough food and water as needed. I can also differ my services based off what my client needs. For example during a drop in I can wear out your overly excited puppy, I can clean your litterbox, or I can just lay down and chill with your older dog who just needs some pets and attention. I am easygoing and can work with any client.
“Karley took such great care of our poodle mix! She communicated well and often. I wasn’t worried for one moment about Kiki while we were on a family vacation. Glad we found her and will use again!”
“Absolutely fantastic. We have a newly adopted dog that was not able to be watched during a family reunion by his former foster family as planned. We could not bring ourselves to kennel him! Jenna made it work and our sweet boy had a great time sleeping in his own bed and getting lots of attention during his waking hours. Jenna was also able to give him required medication which was a huge help. Highly recommend Jenna for your pet care.”
“Drew always takes excellent care of our pets and home. With this stay, he came a day early due to the snowstorm and stayed until he knew we would make it home which was a huge relief when traveling in bad weather.”
About: I’ve always loved working with animals. I have hands on experience caring for all breeds of animals. I'm active, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, whether that's going for walks, hikes, or simply getting fresh air. Because of my animal background, I'm comfortable around animals of all sizes and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. As a pet caregiver, I'll treat your pets like they're my own. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk to burn off energy, or extra attention while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m currently working part time, which allows me to have flexibility and availability throughout the day for dog walks, drop in visits, and pet care. Your pets safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I strive to provide a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and have grown up with them. Neighbors and friends tend to rely on me if they need a sitter for a weekend or even a week long vacation. I am available to be working on weekends all day. Mondays and fridays after 3 pm. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays after 5 pm. I am a full time college student but live at home. I have a fenced in backyard for them to run around in. They’re is a boarding place a few minutes from my house if that is ever needed
“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”
“Megan and Lee are phenomenal. They spent time getting to know our two fur babes and we felt so much better knowing our girls were in such good hands. They sent us photos and updates too! We will definitely have Megan and Lee stay at our home and watch our girls again!”
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats around me since I was a baby, and have always held a special place in my heart for them. When my parents, as well as family friends, would go out of town, I would frequently be responsible for feeding the animals, taking them on walks, or simply just keeping them company. My mom is a veteranrian so I have grown up with a great role model on how to treat animals in a safe and respectful way. I am home for 2 months before my study abroad trip, Dec. 21st-Febuary 10th. I have a completely free schedule until then. I am able to provide services Monday-Sunday. I have a large backyard that I can throw toys in and have 2 other dogs that can keep them company. One is a Leonberger and the other is a Jack Russell Terrier.
About: I have experience in training puppies and administering medication to older pups. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with breeds of all kinds! I work very part-time and am looking for something else to keep me busy during the summer when I'm home from school, so I am turning to my favorite passion, animals! I always follow instructions carefully, and prioritize the safety of your home and your pets above all else. I communicate effectively and will always be someone you can count on.
“Alex did a fabulous job with our very picky kitty! Very responsive and incredibly helpful with our many requests! Thank you so much for everything Alex and we can’t wait to have you take care of Zelda again!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was twelve, I love spending time with furry friends! I can help train puppies as I have trained 2 of my own, I have helped geriatric and diabetic animals as well. I am a currently student at Ohio State and have free gaps during my day since I don’t have classes on Thursdays or Fridays. I am an active person and go on daily walks myself and so I would love to have a buddy! My apartment doesn’t have many stairs so it’s easy for dogs to come up, I have a huge park right near me where lots of dogs like to go and play.
“Jennifer was top notch! Very professional and great with communication while we were out of town for the day. She gave us lots of updates and photos and we came home to a very happy pup! Would highly recommend Jennifer! Will definitely use her again and again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Mount Repose is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Repose
We were super lucky and blessed to have found Jenna for our very first cat and kitten sitting in-home adventure. She is truly one of a kind and has an animal spirit. She kept us up to date daily, sent us pictures, and I could tell she went above and beyond to make sure that our kitties were happy and did not miss us. We could relax knowing that she was taking care of everything and knows what she's doing. She's also educated and highly experienced. Love love love her.
My pups can be high maintenance and she was great with them. She took several pictures and sent them to me and they looked very happy. She has communicated a lot with me to help offer suggestions for my 1 year old that I have been struggling with training. I’m very picky about my babies and I am so thankful we found her.
Michayla took care of my two cats for a week while I was on vacation, and she did a wonderful job! She is very caring and attentive, and she made sure to send me pictures and updates throughout the week which really put my mind at ease. I will definitely book her again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mount Repose
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mount Repose on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,560 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Repose. 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 Repose 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 Repose 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 Repose 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.

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.
