“Allison was above and beyond in all the ways. Friendly, caring, communicative, on time, helpful, and extremely loving. I could not imagine anyone better to leave our beloved dogs with! We are so grateful for her and her care. You won’t find anyone better!! Book her and hold on to her if you can! We didn’t have to worry about a thing!”
“Gabby is seriously a great person! Her character gave me strong peace of mind and total trust that she will take care of Loki. And she did!! She exceed expectations and went above and beyond with Loki. She is responsible, respectful, caring, loving, extremely detail oriented, communicative, etc… we are so honored that you were able to help us Gabby! Thank you 😊”
“Kaitlyn sent us a picture of the pups sleeping in their favorite spot - a few days later after we returned, I took almost the exact same picture. That means a lot. Means the pups were as comfortable with her as they are with us. Awesome!!!”
“Jessica was so kind and took great care of our anxious pup! She updated everyday with pictures and how things were going. She stayed in our home and left it in great condition as well. We will definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Stephanie did an excellent job of taking care of my cat while I went on vacation. She sent updates and pictures to me while I was gone. She completely won over my cat. I highly recommend Stephanie and will definitely book her again for my next trip.”
About: I have always had a big heart for all dogs. They truly are man’s best friends! I grew up with 2 dogs of my own, Melbee and Reese. I watched and helped care for them in the crazy puppy and teething stages, the feisty teenager stage, all the way up into the little old lady stage. They were the most loving, sweet dogs and I miss them so much. I think every dog deserves all the love, head scratches, and snuggles in the world and would love to be there for your dogs when you are taking a vacation or will be away! I helped both my dogs with training for emotional therapy support and was there for both puppy potty training courses! I do work Monday - Friday from home, but I am available as early in the morning as you need and then I am avalible after work. If your dog is older and able to come stay at my apartment, I can watch them during my workday! I am also free on the weekends to stop by and care for your baby as much as you need! My apartment complex does not have a fenced yard, however, they do have tons of open space for dogs to play in, lots of walking paths, and are considered to be very pet friendly! There is more than enough space for your dog to get all the walkies and play time they need. In your own home, I will make sure to keep everything exactly the way you need, clean up after both the dogs and myself, and keep your home in top notch condition. I know dogs can get messy sometimes so If you show me where the vacuum is, I will get right to work! Nothing is better than coming home to your favorite pet and a nice clean home!
“Annicka was a pleasure to work with! She was incredibly kind, communicative, and easy to talk to. During our initial meeting, she asked thoughtful, detailed questions about our puppy’s care, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout her time with him, she was reliable and kept us well-informed with great updates. We felt completely confident leaving our pup in her care and would absolutely utilize her again, as well as recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.”
“Alex is awesome! 2nd time using his service for house sitting and he’s taken great care of our dogs and house. He was always quick to respond and helped us out over both thanksgiving and new years. Thanks Alex!”
“Victoria was wonderful. She was very attentive to Coco and his needs. She left my house very clean. I couldn't of asked for more from a house/dog sitter ? I hope she'll be available the next time I need someone!”
“Ashley was fantastic! She took such great care of our dogs - they loved her and followed her around everywhere! Ashley sent us photos each day to keep us updated on how they were doing, played with them, took them on walks and made sure they were loved. On top of that, she left the house spotless. We couldn’t recommend Ashley more.”
“So grateful to have found Erin! She was so wonderful with my two dogs over the holidays! She sent me several updates throughout the day & left my home spotless. She has such a warm spirit & loved on my boys so well while I was traveling. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have experience with pets of all sizes and personalities. I currently care for my black Lab, Lexi, and have previous experience working at a pet store, where I helped care for animals and learned the importance of patience, safety, and attention to detail. As a Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology Alumni at Colorado State University, I’m passionate about animal care and understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll care for them like they’re my own! I recently graduated from Colorado State University and now have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to be highly available for pet care. Whether your pet needs daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or extra attention, I’m happy to work around their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, responsive, and committed to giving your pets lots of love, playtime, and attention while you’re away! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand every pet has different needs and routines, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether in your home or out on walks, I’ll provide patient, attentive care and treat your pet like family. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and always happy to send regular photo updates for peace of mind.
“Reece watched Finn while we were on our honeymoon and was amazing with him! She sent updates with photos twice a day like we had asked and he always looked so happy! He is on crate rest for a leg injury and she took extra care of him!”
“Allison did a great job housesitting our 2 vizsla's for 6 days/5 nights while we were away on an international trip. She met our dogs a couple of weeks before our trip and noted their individual needs. It was good to know they could be comfortable in their own home and cared for the same they would if we were there. It was so nice to receive daily updates and photos of our dogs as well. I would rebook Allison again.”
“Cortney is wonderful, took excellent care of my spoiled pups, gave them lots of love & everything went so smoothly. Fantastic communication with updates & pics. While the pups were ecstatic for us to come home, they were clearly just happy to see us & not stressed, because they had been so well taken care of. Thank you Cortney!!”
“Jessica came and often came with her husband, Juan to watch our fur babies. They were amazing. They sent regular updates and pictures even washed some bedding that one of the dogs had threw up on. I would recommend Jessica to watch your fur babies five stars.”
“Jason took unbelievably good care of my dog Ginger. Cuddles, pats and walks everyday plus plenty of time in the yard. The house was immaculate. Clean sheets on the bed, dishes washed, all good! I highly recommend him!”
About: I have been dealing with dogs and other animals my whole life and I feel very confident in my ability to take care of them without struggle. I am a part-time college student, which leaves a lot of spare time to take care of whatever the animal may need and still maintain a healthy work-life balance. I will make sure to follow the instructions left to me by the owner and provide updates if needed. Also, I’ll make sure that when you return to your pet that they will be a happy and taken care of animal.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Century
Kaitlyn stayed with our pups for 8 nights and did a phenomenal job caring for them! Not only does she take great care of our pups, she is excellent at communicating and sending updates through her time with them. This was our second time hiring Kaitlyn and we will continue to book with her in the future!
Allison sat for us over the Fourth of July and kept my 2 dogs who are severely scared of fireworks safe and cared for. We haven’t been able to travel over the fourth for 8 years because of it. Family obligations we could not miss had us traveling this year and I don’t know what we would have done without Allison. She is a treasure. As I always say, book her if you can! She is in high demand for very good reason!!!!!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - New Century
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Century on Rover is $37.74 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 1,446 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Century. 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 New Century 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 New Century 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 New Century 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Century. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
