“As always, Hunter was great with our babies! One of them got sick and she was so kind as to clean the mess and buy him and give him the medicine he needed to get better. She kept us informed and sent us pictures. I had to made a last minute change to our reservation, and she was great at accommodating our new time. We, and our babies, love her!”
“Camryn was absolutely amazing. Thorough, respectful, kind, and my dog immediately liked her. She stayed in contact as needed and took great care of my home. I was able to enjoy being away knowing my dog was well taken care of at home! 10/10”
“Jessica did a great job with our dog while we were away two nights. Our dog can be fussy, but Jessica was great with her and was also able to give our dog her medication, which is not always easy. She also left the house and yard in great condition. We definitely plan to use Jessica again!”

About: I’m very experienced in taking care of dogs with physical and/or mental disabilities, both my own dogs or dogs of family members/friends. I understand the strict nature of diets and medication times, and I have experience taking care of dogs post-op, whether it’s from their being spayed, back surgery, etc. What truly sets me apart, though, is that I have experience with epileptic animals. I have a Chihuahua who gets seizures, and understand common procedure to prevent the dog from hurting themselves, myself, or the property of the home. I’m also experienced with the detailed documenting of these events. I’m more well versed with small and medium dog breeds, and specifically I’m an expert with chihuahuas as I’ve owned two for eleven years! I’m currently in college with few credit hours. I don’t take classes on Fridays, and during the school week I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings to take care of your babies! I’m very strict about medication times, feedings, potty breaks/walks, and play time with my own dogs, and intend to bring this discipline to your own pets. I’m also a very clean person, and will happily take care of any messes that may be produced by myself or your pet!
“Shannon always goes above and beyond with our pups. She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, and really goes the extra mile to make sure they are well taken care of. She stayed at our house for a week with them, and really put us at ease while we were away. We love (and the pups love!) having Shannon watch them!!!”

About: I started taking care of pets when we got a family dog when I was a kid. Since then, I help my mom with her pet-sitting business and have sat for her 3 dogs for a week+ at a time. I genuinely love taking care of dogs of all ages. I work a full-time job 7-3 M-F, and have afternoon pilot classes about twice a week, always scheduled in advance. Occasionally I go out of town for a weekend, again, scheduled well in advance. I would treat a client's pet as if they were my own, which is to say with lots of love, care, patience, respect, and kindness. And a lot of head pats (if and when applicable).
“I recently went away for 4 days and Laura watched my cat Felipe for me. As a first time cat owner and adopting Felipe almost 3 months ago, I was very nervous about leaving Felipe alone especially over night. Laura kept me updated the whole time, sent me pictures at every drop in to ease my worries and even did some extra drop ins to give him a little company. This was my first time using Laura as my cat sitter and she was absolutely amazing with Felipe. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby”
“Kathryn did an outstanding job watching our pup and two kitties while we were away for 4 days. She was all ways in communication with us and sent many pictures. She genuinely loves all animals an strives to befriend even the toughest ones (aka our scaredy cat and her became besties). Thankful to have had her to take care of our fur babies and will definitely book again for our next vacay.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Steph! This was my first time ever leaving Happy with someone I didn’t know and allowing anyone into my home while I was away, so I was definitely nervous. Steph COMPLETELY put my mind at ease from day one. She kept me updated every single day with pictures and messages, and I could tell Happy was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. He even took his medication on a regular basis for her which at times he can be very stubborn about. Steph truly went above and beyond—not only taking amazing care of Happy, but also bringing in my mail and packages every day and even making sure my garbage cans were brought back in. Those little things meant so much to me while I was away! I was able to actually relax and enjoy my trip knowing Happy and my home were in such good hands. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust and will absolutely be booking with Steph again. Happy and I can’t wait to have her back! ❤️🐾
Hunter is amazing! Hunter has done drop-by visits for us before but this past week, Hunter house sat while we were away so we could leave our dog. Hunter was amazing! We got loads of updates and our animals seemed so happy the entire time. We’ll keep booking Hunter whenever we need support with our pets!

FAQs for House Sitting - Naugatuck
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Naugatuck on Rover is $49.95 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 1,831 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Naugatuck. 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 Naugatuck 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 Naugatuck 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 Naugatuck 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.
