“Our pups love Juliana and Caleb. It is so nice knowing we can go out of town and they are so well taken care of. Yesterday, we came home from warm weather in South Carolina to snow in PA, and they were kind enough to shovel our sidewalks and driveway. That was an amazing surprise. They are the best!”
“Carly is fantastic! Carly took care of my 5 fur children (cats) while I was on vacation. She stayed overnights for 3 nights, played with my babies and administered 3 different meds for my senior boy. Carly sent me updates and photos throughout my vacation, and respond immediately to any questions I had. I am so impressed with how quickly my two shy cats warmed up to her. When I got home my cats were happy and the house was as clean as I left it. She even ran all the bowls through the dishwasher, refilled the litter pans and vacuumed to make sure I came home with no chores to do. I will be using Carly again for all my trips in the future.”
“Kaylee did an amazing job of taking care of my fur family. She was proactive in meeting with me and my cats to make sure I was comfortable and the cats felt comfortable with her. She read my care instructions and asked good questions. She checked in frequently to help put my mind at ease. She was patient with my senior kitties who need lots of attention. She spoiled them with snuggles and movie night! She did a great job and planning on rebooking with her.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my difficult puppy for over a week! She kept me updated, sent me pictures, and made me feel comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough for your pet care needs. Thank you so much Sarah!! Alfie and I appreciate you!!!”
“We will use Tristen as our dog sitter as long as he is dog sitting!! Our (high maintenance) dogs love him! We always appreciate it when he watches our dogs! It makes for a carefree vacation knowing he’s our sitter!”
“We cannot recommend Ronny highly enough! When another sitter backed out at the last minute, we reached out to Ronny on short notice. He responded promptly and was more than willing to come by for a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment he walked in the door, our cats were comfortable with him which is not always the case. Ronny took his time answering all of our questions and asked thoughtful questions of his own. Even though we admittedly have a very detailed list of instructions, he did an amazing job remembering all the little things and checking in regularly with messages and photos throughout his stay. It was clear that Ronny genuinely cared about making sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. He was also incredibly respectful of our home, leaving everything exactly as we left it. He even went above and beyond by offering to clear our driveway after an unexpected snowfall. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile and treats your pets like their own, Ronny is absolutely the person to book!”
“We truly could not ask for a better sitter. She cares for our dogs as if they were her own babies, and that kind of love and attention is priceless. We always come home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a home that is just as clean and tidy as we left it. One of our favorite things is how many updates and photos she sends while we’re away—it brings us so much peace of mind (and joy!) to see how loved and comfortable our dogs are. She is kind, respectful, reliable, and goes above and beyond every single time. We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a Small and Large Animal Veterinarian and specialize in Animal Psychology and Internal Medicine/Oncology. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job on Mondays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for my pet care clients. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to accurately reflect my availability, though occasional changes may arise. If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.
“Kerri was amazing. Stayed at our house and took excellent care of our Great Dane while we were away on a long weekend trip. Sent us updates and left everything super neat and tidy! Look forward to having her sit again :)”

About: I’ve been a care taker of dogs, and cats alike for the last 20 years including house sitting, and long term care! I love all animals, and am not afraid to do whatever it takes to ensure your furry friend is well taken care of! I’m a stay at home mom looking to book clients for daily drop in visits/walks. I am available 7 days a week with little limitations on times. I can ensure that your furry friend will be walked frequently for however long you’d like, played with and loved on, fed their food/water as instructed, and whatever else I can do to ensure you feel comfortable with your pet being with someone else while you are away.
“Shae did an amazing job with my fur babies. Made me feel at ease while I was on vacation with the daily pictures... Would definitely recommend her and I will definitely be using her services again... Thank You So Much Shae... Until next time 🐶😼😁”
“Louis was so awesome! I’ve never left my pets alone with anyone outside of my family before, but I felt safe and secure with Louis in charge! Both of my dogs loved him and he took such good care of them. He even sent me some pictures. I will definitely ask Louis to pet sit again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of a family friends cats and dog for a few years now! But before that I was either helping out at human society or caring for childhood friends and family pets! Im free most days of the week! I work part time at a florist, usually helping out on Fridays and weekends and also help out a catering business around three times a month. Moved my beloved kitty’s into our new house back in November, ever since we’ve been building cat walk and plan to build a catio for even more stimulation. I love to spoil mine and anyone else’s pets with love and treats, of course not to much so they maintain a healthy weight!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Freedom
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jillian was absolutely amazing! She watched our dogs, Ruby and Ronan, for a week while we were at the beach, and we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She took great care of them, kept us updated, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy pups! We would gladly have her watch them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - New Freedom
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Freedom on Rover is $53.14 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 2,498 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Freedom. 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 Freedom 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 Freedom 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 Freedom 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.
