About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I was a kid. There has always been a pet in my house while growing up. My family has relied on me to feed and play with the pets while they were away. I additionally have experience in caring for both young and senior pets. I’m currently working part-time, which means I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available most days except for Wednesday & Thursday afternoons. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can accommodate if needed :) I currently have one cat in my home. I feed him, give him affection and play with him everyday. We also have a dog that lives at home with us. I take care of him when his owner is busy.
“Stacie was super easy to work with and very responsive. She sent us updates and photos of our pup while we were away and left the house just as we left it. We felt like she treated our home and pup as she would her own. We will be reaching out again for our next trip! Thanks Stacie!”
About: I have been a dog owner for 12 years and a cat owner for 6. I am very passionate animal lover and have experience with many different breeds, ages, and sizes along with a wide range of species including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, goats, cows and horses! I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of free time during the day to provide care for others’ pets in addition to my own! I have a toddler that would join any visits occurring before 5pm although she will be kept in a carrier to avoid making any pets uncomfortable :) I frequently update my schedule but if you have any questions regarding hourly availability or exceptions, please feel free to reach out! I am very attentive to detail and following instructions, whether that be in your home or mine. If I am not sure about something, I always ask/mention it rather than assume (better safe than sorry)!
“I can always trust Rita. I’ve had issues in the past with sitters ensuring that they wouldn’t leave my dog alone for more than 3 hours but have ended up leaving him for 6. Rita, on the other hand, sticks to her word and goes to extra lengths to ensure my dog is comfortable at home. She’s my go to sitter for house sitting, dog sitting, and dog walking. Highly recommend her to folks who need special care for their fur babies.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, and even goats since I was 14! I am extremely passionate about providing the best care for any animal, any age and any size. My schedule is extremely flexible. I work a part-time job once a week and I currently attend college 2 days a week. However, college is ending mid-May! I do not particularly plan on housing animals in my own home, since I do live with an elderly family member. Sorry for the inconvenience!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience. I currently serve as an active board member for a non-profit rescue and have a passion for providing attentive, reliable care to every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with medication administration, basic veterinary care, and handling animals with different personalities and needs. At home, I have my Aussie, Harley, plus a fully fenced one-acre yard perfect for safe play and exercise. I’m active, dependable, and excited to provide loving care! I currently have a flexible work schedule with ability to WFH. Walks available weekdays and weekends and boarding available in my home ! ! ! My yard is about a half acre fully fenced in, trails behind which I am able to take dogs on walks and a quiet private cul de sac for walks. I have a 5yr old Australian Shepherd who is very playful and always looking for friends , but is respectful of the boundaries of another dog if they do not like to play.
“Kimberly was incredibly patient, caring, and helpful while working through our cat’s anxiety and stress around taking medication. Kimberly took the time to understand our cat’s needs, stayed calm and was reassuring. We truly appreciated their compassion, dedication, and willingness to work with our cat rather than simply giving up when things were difficult. We would absolutely recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable pet sitter!”
“Briana took such great care of our dog Lacey! I felt soo at ease being away for the long weekend with the frequent updates and pictures I got. I will 100% be requesting her in the future and would highly recommend to anyone!”

I personally own a bearded dragon named Ember and in the past, I have briefly homed poorly cared for lizards and found them new homes. My family currently has a pit bull terrier mix, named Nyla. She is the absolute light of my life and she truly made me realize how happy caring for animals made me.

I want to respect anyone’s home and pets as if they were my own. Safety and attention to detail is always important when someone trusts you to work for them.
“Thanks to Rebecca for taking care of our girl Skye. Excellent communication through the entire process as it was our first time using Rover. We would most definitely use Rebecca and Rover again. Loved the pictures. So appreciate the peace of mind of having professional care for our pet as we visited family.”
“Ashiera was fantastic with Ethan! She sent pictures everyday and was good at communicating with us. This was the first time since we adopted Ethan 2 years ago being apart for an extended time. When we came back Ethan looked as refreshed and excited as we did for our mini vacation. I wouldn't hesitate leaving Ethan with Ashiera again. She will love your fur baby as if they were her own.”
“Kira is wonderful with Peroni! She plays with him and keeps him engaged and communicates with me very well about how he’s doing during the day and overnight. Me and Peroni really appreciate her! :)”
About: I’ve always been very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I previously worked as a pet sitter caring for a home with 7 cats and understand how important routine, cleanliness, patience, and attention are for pets while their owners are away. I also volunteer with Catsbury Park cat rescue and currently care for 6 cats of my own, so I have experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I already care for multiple cats of my own every day. I’m currently available Wednesday evenings, Thursdays, and Fridays for drop-in visits and pet sitting. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets are fed, comfortable, and given attention while their owners are away. I always prioritize creating a calm, safe, and clean environment for every pet I care for. I understand how important routines are for animals, especially cats, and I carefully follow feeding instructions, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and focus on making pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: I currently work for a dog sitting company, but I would like additional work.

I live in Jackson I will travel 30 minutes or so. I love working with dogs and cats. It’s my passion. I am dependable and trustworthy. My schedule is flexible. I am working part-time with another company right now, but I’m willing to do whatever needs to be done for your animal. I would care about your pet like it’s my own. I am such an animal lover and I care about the safety of your pet.
About: Hi! I’m Alexandra, a lifelong animal lover and sitter of dogs🐾 I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets, so I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I would want someone to give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines—from playful puppies who need lots of attention and potty breaks to adult dogs who are happiest going for a walk and curling up on the couch afterward. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow your normal feeding schedule, walking routine, training cues, crate routine, medication instructions, or any other preferences that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I work remotely, so your dog will always have a companion home with them to make sure they are getting all the love and attention they need. I’ve always been the go-to person for my family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets, but my experience goes beyond pet sitting. When I lived in Austin, Texas, I spent about a year fostering dogs and puppies, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. That’s actually how I ended up with my dog Cosmo—I was a proud “foster fail” and couldn’t bring myself to let him go! If I had the space, I probably would have adopted every foster dog and cat that came through my home. These days, pet sitting gives me the perfect excuse to spend time with more animals without constantly bringing another one home. 😂 I genuinely love caring for pets and treat every animal like they’re one of my own. As a pet parent myself, I also know how stressful it can be leaving your dog with someone new. I’m very communicative and will happily send plenty of photos, videos, and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. 📸💕 Outside of pet sitting, I work professionally as a program and events coordinator, so being organized, dependable, communicative, and attentive to details is a huge part of my everyday life. In my free time, I love spending time with my dogs, baking, doing crafts and nails, traveling, building LEGO sets, and relaxing at home. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and completely spoiled. 🐶💗 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine since I have two dogs of my own. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, training, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m also very much a homebody, so when I’m not working or running an occasional errand, I’m usually at home with my pets. Adding another furry guest into my routine comes very naturally to me, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule around their normal routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. 🐾💕 I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible, whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any other special needs or preferences. I know every pet has their own personality, so I adjust my care depending on whether they love constant attention and cuddles or prefer a little more space and independence. When pets stay in my home, safety is my biggest priority. I have dogs of my own, but I always keep my pets separated from my guests’ pets rather than assuming unfamiliar animals will get along. This allows every pet to have their own comfortable, safe space and gives owners peace of mind. My apartment complex also has a dog park, so if you are comfortable with your dog using it, I’m happy to take them there for some extra exercise and playtime. If dog parks aren’t your preference, that’s completely fine too! I’m more than happy to take them on long walks and strolls around my complex or visit nearby parks instead. I’ll always follow whatever you feel is safest and most appropriate for your dog. I’m very attentive and spend plenty of time checking in, playing, walking, cuddling, and making sure pets are comfortable throughout their stay. I also send regular photos and updates because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away. 🐾💕

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Egypt
Daniel is fantastic. We had other arrangements to take care of our two dogs for 2 days but that fell through. We were able to book Daniel last minute. He was so great and gentle with our dogs. They took to him right away. We have a 1.5 old standard poodle and a 11 week old poodle puppy. He gave them the attention they needed and made sure the puppy got a little extra for he is not fully trained yet. He sent us multiple texts to make sure we knew all that was happening which put our minds at ease. I highly recommend Daniel. Your dogs are in good hands with Daniel.
We couldn't be happier with the care Violet received! Daniel was caring and attentive with Violet. We received updates and could tell Violet was happy and well cared for. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely loving toward their pets.
Kaylea took care of our senior Australian Shepherd mix Amber for a week. She was very thoughtful and we could tell immediately during the meet and greet that animals and their care is very important to her. Kaylea built her day around Amber's needs.. After our meet and greet, she sent a schedule of times when she would be seeing Amber throughout the day to see if we thought it would work for Amber. She sent updates and photos and kept Amber engaged while we were away. Kaylea followed instructions for Amber's medications and special diet. I think Amber misses her and her family coming over. We will absolutely request her to sit for Amber again. Great sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - New Egypt
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in New Egypt is $112 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $41 and $127 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 November 2026, there are 4,076 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Egypt. 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 Egypt 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 Egypt 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 Egypt 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 New Egypt. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
