“I highly recommend Sammie! She took such good care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. She sent photos every day and we knew they were in great hands. She is a true professional and we’ll definitely use her again.”
“Jordan was super communicative with us. We have a lot of animals and they all did super well while we were away. I have a lot of anxiety about my pets, but was able to enjoy my trip knowing Jordan was caring for them!”
“Jade was terrific! Dogs were well cared for and she is great about communicating! She asked questions when information was needed and provided updates while we were away. Highly recommend”
“Hannah did an awesome job with Zoey, we could tell she was well cared for. Zoey is shy and a little stand-offish but she warmed up to Hannah right away. Hannah also did a great job taking care of the house, she left everything nice and neat. We would absolutely hire her again.”
“Maggie was great! What a find! I changed the trip dates at least three times on her. Thankfully, she was able to accommodate the final dates. She sent pictures everyday and kept us current on how Bodie was doing. Hopefully Maggie is available again when we need to travel!”
“Olivia is a gem. She stepped in to pinch-hit after a non-Rover sitter had to leave early, and dealt with a messy house (teen sitter left quite a disaster in his wake!), untended critters, an uncertain ETA, and an unexpected medical situation with grace and care. 10 out of 10. Would recommend. Definitely hitting her up the next time I have to be away.”
“It was lucky for us we found Karen to watch our two dogs over a scheduled week long vacation. Both dogs took to her right away when we had our meet and greet and we knew they would be in good hands. Our dogs both take oral medications a couple of times a day and Karen followed their schedule with no issues. Karen also helped out getting the mail and straightening up around the house. We would welcome her back anytime. Thanks Karen!”
“Abigail did a great job with our 10 year old dog who does not like change! She asked great questions when we met, communicated with me throughout her stay, sent cute pictures, and allowed us to enjoy our weekend away. I hesitated writing a review because I know anyone who books her will definitely want to book again!”
“We really lucked out finding Amy! She accommodated our last-minute request and immediately put us at ease with her understanding of Milo’s reactivity and his individual needs. She took wonderful care of him and left our house clean and well-maintained. The sweet “welcome back” note and homemade gift she left were such a thoughtful touch! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable dog sitter. We’d absolutely book with her again!”
“Alex was so wonderful and patient with our senior dog! We felt so comfortable knowing she was well taken care of while we were gone. She communicated well and sent us lots of pictures. We will definitely be booking Alex again!”
“We recently had Claire come stay at our place with our two labs for two weeks, and she was absolutely amazing. Not only was she very flexible with our constantly changing plans, she also went above and beyond during her stay. We came home to a clean house, and two happy dogs (who got more of a workout in those 2 weeks than they had all winter). We will definitely be using Claire again in the future and would highly recommend her to any other pet owner.”
“Sofia is very sweet and respectful. She communicates well, and cares about your pets. She sent pictures and kept me up to date on what was going on. She gave meds on time and sat with the pugs to comfort them. I will definitely want to have her stay anytime we have to leave our babies home.”
“Kiah was just ideal for Jake! She provided great updates throughout and left a few amazing pics and note for when we got home. It provided us great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We will have Kiah again!”
“First timers here using rover and we are so happy we found Katherine! She is great with our 10 yo pitbull mix, sent regular updates and photos. It’s so great to have peace of mind your pet is being cared for and spoiled while being away!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Hope
I was so worried about leaving Kirby alone while I attended my son’s wedding. But he responded so well with Andy and they became fast friends. Andy kept us updated all day really soothing my nerves. Kirby was in good hands. I’ll definitely reach out to Andy again when I need another sittter. Thank you Andy.
Renae was fantastic! She took wonderful care of River while I was away in Europe, and it was such a relief knowing he was in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I could relax and enjoy my trip without worrying. Highly recommend her for house sitting and pet care!
Hannah did an awesome job with Zoey, we could tell she was well cared for. Zoey is shy and a little stand-offish but she warmed up to Hannah right away. Hannah also did a great job taking care of the house, she left everything nice and neat. We would absolutely hire her again.
Carol was amazing! Excellent communication, reliable, sent regular updates with pictures, and took excellent care of our puppy for the day! This was the first time I needed an all day sitter, I could not be happier Carol was ours! She gave me complete confidence and peace of mind that our girl was safe, healthy, and having a great day with her there. I will absolutely hope to get to work with Carol again in the future for any day / overnight sitting, and if you are looking for someone to take the best of care of your pet while you’re gone, I absolutely recommend confirming with Carol! Thank you so much!!

The average cost of House Sitting in New Hope is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $87 per night.

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 Hope 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 Hope 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 Hope 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
