“Carla is a fantastic dog and house sitter! Reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. We came home to a happy dog and a tidy house. Highly recommend and will definitely book again.”
“Marlies has sat for our elderly dog many times and it's always an easy experience. I trust that my dog is safe, she's always calm and happy when we come home, and Marlies has the magic touch that she can always get our stubborn dog to take her medicine!”
“Regina was the perfect choice to watch our boys. They absolutely loved her and she took such great care of them! We would be using Regina any chance we get to watch out fur babies!”
“Sabrina was absolutely amazing! Next time we are in town we will definitely use her services again. Our dog loved her and I could tell that he really enjoyed her company. If you are ever in the area and need a dog sitter, Sabrina is the person to call.”
“We couldn't be happier with the overnight care Louann provided for our dog. Being new to town and nervous about onboarding someone new, she proved to be reliable, communicative, and flexible when our plans had to change last minute. It's clear she truly cares about the animals she watches. We have already booked with her again and highly recommend!”
“Connor does a great job! Housesitting and dog care were his responsibilities for us. It is obvious he really enjoys fur babies. It does not appear to be just an avenue to make money for him. He is professional, courteous, and listens to instructions. Jake and his humans are immensely happy we found him!”
“We had such a great experience! Tori took wonderful care of our dog, Kobe, while we were away. She was very communicative, sent updates, and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would absolutely book again!”
“Wendy was so good about keeping us updated on the activities of our dogs with notes and pictures throughout our time away. She kept my mind at ease for one of our dogs that is older and has health issues. Also, our home was very well maintained and cared for during Wendy's time taking care of our dogs.”
About: I have 9 years of pet care experience with my own dog, other people's animals, and as a volunteer at the SPCA of Texas. I have taken care of many animals in my years of pet sitting in including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, and guinea pigs. It is not easy for animals to scare me. I'm currently working a part time at a veterinary hospital and going to school part time. I'm not a very busy person, so I will have plenty of extra time to look after your furry little family member. I keep dogs on a leash at all times when walking. I like to follow a list with times for when certain things need to be done. I like to try and keep a schedule that is close to what each pet is used to on a daily basis.
“Pebbles is shy and takes awhile to warm up to you, Maria was very patient and let Pebbles slowly warm up to her, by the end of the weekend Maria was able to give Pebbles belly rubs. They are becoming pals. The house was clean, dishes and laundry was done. I would recommend Maria and will use her again”
“Kayleigh was an amazing dog / cat / house sitter! She even stayed through the night when the heater broke and it was freezing outside! I can definitely recommend her and will hope she is free next time I need a sitter.”
About: I have plenty of time to spend with the dogs and i love taking care of them walking them and playing.i believe my little dog will be a great company to the other dogs my puppy loves to play with other dogs and she is super friendly and adorable I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I have cared for many of my friends' dogs and enjoy having them around. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore. Pets are treated like family and will have plenty of love, attention, and a comfortable place to relax.
“Maria was fantastic! We left on a weeklong trip and Maria not only took such great care of our pups, but she went above and beyond to spoil them. We appreciate the constant communication and feeling like we could leave out fur babies in great hands! Thank you for everything and we look forward to our next booking with you!”
“We were very happy with Joleen’s care of our cat and house while we were away. She took such great care of Kit Kit who is not the most social or friendliest cat around, otherwise known as a PIA. We received picture updates and were so surprised how she had the cat eating out of her hand in no time. The house was immaculate when we returned… we couldn’t ask for anything more. You will never want to use anybody else!”
About: I’m an empty nester, self employed from home. I have one cat, Dyago who is 5. He’s been in my life since she was 5 mo. I grew up with dogs but can’t have them where I live. Looking to love yours. I live in Westminster and have a very flexible schedule. Available most days any time of the day. Will care for your cats and dogs. House sitting. Bringing in your mail and paper. Turning on / off lights. I’m mature, responsible, fun and young at heart. I often borrow friends dogs so I can go walking with them. Physically active. Looking to build long term relationships with you and your pet family but okay for short term needs as well. Thanks! I have my own home organization, business, and senior companion business. I make my own schedule so it’s easy for me to fit in visiting with your fur family. I cannot board pets at my house, but happy to come to yours. Letting dogs out for potty breaks or taking them for a walk and enjoying the sunshine playing fetch getting lots of scratches and toy time. With Cats, lots of purrs and pets treats and toys.
“Jaynie has been an amazing sitter for us. She sends us pics & updates intermittently while we're away from our pup.. she is so complimentary of our Hank, even though we know he can be a handful sometimes! We love Jaynie & will continue to use her for future sitting needs as her schedule can accommodate!!”
“Alexa always does a great job! She is excellent at communication and always keeps me updated while we’re away. My dog and very shy cat adore her, and I appreciate how reliable she is!”
“Addison was an amazing sitter! This was our first time using the app and we were nervous about leaving our fur babies but Addison kept us up to date with everything regarding the dogs via text and pictures and videos! Would recommend Addison to anyone with fur babies especially if you want them taken care like her own!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Hope
We had a wonderful experience with Regina! This was our first time leaving our senior Newfoundland with someone new, and she immediately put us at ease. She was kind, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure he was comfortable and well looked after. Bruno has a few special needs and routines, and she was patient, asked great questions, and followed instructions carefully. We received updates while we were away, which gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our evening knowing he was in good hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and that’s the best review we can give. We would absolutely trust her with Bruno again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - New Hope
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Hope on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,518 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Hope. 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 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 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 Hope. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
