“Brittany is a gem and we are so grateful we found her. She treats your pets like her own. Dependable, trustworthy and just a nice human. We are so happy we have a sitter for our “not so easy to handle” dog. He loves her and so do we!”
“Onn came back for a second stay with our fur baby Moo Moo and she did an exceptional job of communicating throughout the stay on how everything was going, she is so loving and caring and she left our house even cleaner than it was before we left. I will 100% be booking her again in the future!”
About: I have cared for animals for most of my life and currently have 4 fur babies, 2 cats and 2 dogs. Rest assured I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I have experience with animals of all ages, and with diabetes care (for my Yorkie). I understand that every animal has their own personality and getting to know them is important to their care/quality of life. My goal is to get to know your dog(s) and/or cat(s) so that my visits are like play dates with a pal. I look forward to becoming friends with your furry family members! Please contact me today! My schedule is currently flexible which allows me to ensure proper quality time with your furry family members. I am in the process of building my client base with Rover and as such willing to work with you and your family’s scheduling needs. A brief meet & greet is necessary before the date/time of service for all new clientele, especially if you are going to be away from home during the scheduled date/time of services. My goal is to ensure your fur babies know and trust me when I arrive, most importantly you can be certain that I am the right fit for your needs. Please contact me to schedule your free meet & greet today!
About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.
“Our Little Tux is a former feral cat and is very skittish around people other than my husband and me. Becky is a very attentive caregiver and worked with our little gal to ease her stress. We were only gone for a short trip but Becky was able to earn the trust of our young cat so that she came out of hiding. Becky is very responsive and kept us updated with both texts and photos. Thank you, Becky!”
“Debi is wonderful! This was another stay for our girl Piper with her, and once again we felt completely comfortable knowing Piper was in such caring hands. Debi is warm, attentive, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She also took great care of our home and grounds and sent wonderful pictures and updates throughout the entire time we were gone.It means so much to be able to leave Piper and not worry about her—and Piper is always happy and comfortable with Debi. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog. Thank you, Debi! ❤️🐾”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog, so I understand that they aren't just pets, they're family. Over the years, I've cared for the dogs of friends and family, whether that meant stopping by for walks, staying with them while their owners were away, or making sure they got plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention. If I'm being completely honest, my favorite living creature on the planet is my fur niece, Baby. She's absolutely spoiled, and I love every second I get to spend with her. Being around dogs genuinely brings me joy, and I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them. My goal is simple: to keep your dog's routine as normal as possible and make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just curling up on the couch for some company, I'll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your fur baby is in good hands and being cared for like you never left. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pup throughout the day. They'll get lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, plenty of love. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I don't take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to care for both your home and your fur baby with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. I'll follow your pet's routine, respect your house rules, and keep your home clean and secure while you're away. I'll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and in loving hands. My hope is that when you return home, your pet has been so well cared for that it feels like you were never gone.
“Best dog sitter ever! So understanding, engaging, and positive. We’re super appreciative for Lauren going above and beyond for our puppy and would love to have her sit for the pup again as she loved lauren!!”
“Emily was wonderful! She stayed at our house for the weekend to look after our dog, and he was so well cared for. We loved the updates she sent and came home to one very happy pup. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover and what a great experience it was. Mallory was able to help us out in a pinch. We needed a sitter for about three days/nights and were easily able to put together a schedule that worked for the both of us. Mallory was so attentive to not only Jesper’s needs, but ours and made us feel nothing but comfortable throughout the entire experience. We received photos and updates several times a day. Will 100% be booking again, couldn’t recommend Mallory enough!”
“First time using rover app. She did an amazing job. Responded right away, kept me updated on them and sent a picture. I was completely comfortable with her staying in our house and taking care of our boys!”
About: I grew up on a farm and cared for every animal you can think of, from bottle feeding goats to helping deliver babies. Friends, family and coworkers have relied on me to care for their pets while away or during work hours. I have lots of availability so I'm able to check in on your pet during the day or care for them while you're away for longer time periods. I have lots of availability for short check ins, walks, day care, over night or long term care in your home. I just moved to PA from the Midwest and have cared for pets and animals my whole life. I'm at your service to care for your fur baby in whatever capacity you need. From short check ins or walks during the day to over night care. I'm very dependable, caring and will honor you specific needs.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a child - dogs (large and small), cats, horses, turtles, rabbits, even chickens! I have experience in puppy training and care, adult dog and cat care, dog walking, pet-sitting, farm-sitting, and house-sitting. I truly enjoy taking care of animals and will do my best to ensure their utmost safety and happiness while in my care. I’m a college student with quite a bit of availability during my long winter and summer breaks. I am fully available any time of the day or week from Dec 20 - Jan 19 and after May 9 of the current year. Outside of my college breaks, I will have more limited time for pet care, but will still be available most weekends and some of the time on weekdays. After January 19, 2026, I will be unavailable from 8am-12:30pm on Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays, unavailable Tuesdays from 7:30-11:00am, and unavailable Fridays from 12:30-6:30pm due to my class schedule. I currently care for my family’s own pets, including two friendly dogs, three cats, and three horses. I live at a home with a large yard in a quiet neighborhood. The yard is unfenced as our family dogs stay within the perimeter of our home. For this reason I will leash or clip client dogs to a long line when taking them outside for their own safety, unless the owner is confident in their recall abilities and/or specifically grants them permission to be off leash while supervised. Pets will always have access to clean drinking water, and I have a few dog crates available to use upon request for dogs who may benefit from one (for up to medium-large size). Our two family dogs (a labradoodle and a sheltie) are very friendly, healthy, up to date on all vaccines, and would love to play with your fur babies if they are friendly and healthy in turn. If boarding your dog at my house, I have limited ability to separate client pets from our two dogs, so if you would prefer your dog to not interact with others, I would suggest choosing a pet-sitting service where I come to the pet, rather than the boarding service where the pet comes to me. I encourage owners to send me a detailed list of any specific instructions you may have regarding your fur baby’s care.
“kayla was great! She had to put up with my old dog that had diarrhea and handled i multiple accidents and cleanupvery well. Kept in contact with me and updated me accordingly. Would highly recommend her.”
“Annalize is a great provider who demonstrates compassionate care for animals. We left three dogs, two cats, two chinchillas in her care for the weekend. One of the dogs is very elderly and needs a lot of hands on care. Annalize brought it, and kept everyone cool, comfy, fed, and happy. I would recommend her highly.”

Aurora was amazing! Guinness loved her from the moment they met & he slept like a baby the next day when we got home. She kept him entertained and sent us pics of their playtime. She left the house better than when we left, even put our dishes away I had left in the dishwasher! Highly recommend, she definitely is a dog whisperer, Guinness is hooked!
Casey has cared for our dogs throughout the years and by far is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She is the only sitter we have ever had that truly does what you hire her for. She stayed at our home with our boys. She sent adorable, funny pictures to keep us updated and we came home to a clean house and happy dog. Thank you Casey for always taking wonderful care of our pups.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mount Zion
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mount Zion on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 652 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Zion. 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 Zion 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 Zion 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 Zion 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.

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.
