“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.”
“We enjoyed working with Sabrina as our first Rover experience and definitely plan on using her when we go out of town next. She provided many pupdates, pictures, and followed our instructions well. The whole process was very easy and went as well as I could have hoped!”
“I would recommend Louann to anyone looking for a responsible, kind and caring pet sitter. I knew our pets were in great hands while we were away. Louann did a wonderful job keeping us informed but also letting us enjoy our time away. She tried several things to keep our dog eating while we were away, which was much appreciated. We'll be using Louann again in the future. It's such a relief to find someone we can count on when we need to go out of town. ”
“Maria was an amazing dog sitter. She took care of my 5 dogs and all were healthy and happy when we got home. She even cleaned up after herself and my which she didn’t have to do. Gave me daily reports too. I will always use her to take care of my babies.”
“Tori was fantastic with my two pups, Luna and Edith! Excellent communication/updates, super nice and the girls loved her - even Luna (who is usually very anxious). Would highly recommend Tori, and will absolutely be a repeat customer!”
“Ajah was fantastic! Such a sweet soul and my dogs INSTANTLY loved her when I let them meet for the first time (like ran up, laid down, and rolled over for belly rubs…. Which isn’t normally the case). She kept me updated on all the details and was very tidy with our home! Our pups were with her for a few days and did great! Definitely recommend!”
About: Proud dog mom & experienced pet sitter! 🐾 I’m a proud dog mom to an amazing 4-year-old rescue who I’ve had since she was just 3 months old, so I know the ins and outs of both puppies and adult dogs! I also help care for my family’s German Shepherd whenever I’m back home in Indiana. I work from home and travel for work, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust to care for your pets when life gets busy. I’m attentive, reliable, and will treat your pets like they’re my own — whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company. I’d love to meet your pup and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! 🐶❤️ I work remote 4 out of the 5 days of the week, so I have free time within the day to run out of the house and help others out! I know how dogs can be, so I always make sure fences/gates/doors are closed and your pets have a safe space to go out or walk!
“What a sweet lady! From the moment she first met Luke I could tell she was going to be great, she went straight to him and started peting and caring for him, what else can I dog mom ask for? Kinsleigh was courteous enough to stay in our house while we had a very late event across town. When she left in the morning, the house was tied up just the way we left, Luke was fed and had already taken his potty break. My baby looked happy and we will definitely ask Kinsleigh to watch Luke again.”
About: I was raised from birth with dogs around in the home! My grandmother had a golden retriever named lady and she was the best dog in the world! I have loved dogs since and believe they are so special and people need to treat them with the upmost respect! They need exercise and proper care which I have read many books and had life experience raising them. I am extremely flexible and available to help take care of pets whenever needed. I work from home so I can leave whenever needed to help out. I have a two story house with a big back yard for our dogs to play with each other if your pets needs somewhere to go. I have a Multipoo whom loves to play with other dogs.
“Sara was outstanding! She has great communication and gave us daily updates and pictures. She won the heart of all our pups, including one who is very picky on who he likes.”
About: I have over 10 years of experience providing reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats. My pet sitting journey began over a decade ago, while I was in high school, caring for my neighbors' pets and homes, and over the years, my business has grown through word-of-mouth recommendations through those same neighbors and several coworkers across various jobs, as well as caring for family members' pets. Whether keeping up with energetic dogs, maintaining strict feeding routines, or providing gentle companionship for cats, I pride myself on giving pet parents complete peace of mind while they are away through consistent communication and transparency. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. Because I work part-time with flexible hours, I am easily able to adjust my schedule around your pet’s specific needs and feeding routines. Whether your pet needs early morning visits, mid-day attention, evening check-ins, or all day cuddles and companionship, I build my day around ensuring your pet gets timely, uninterrupted care. When caring for pets in your home, I make it my mission to ensure the safety of your pets and your home's security are always met. I treat your home with total respect by ensuring doors, gates, and windows remain securely shut and entry codes/keys are strictly safeguarded. Whether walking dogs on-leash or spending time inside with cats, I am always vigilant about their surroundings and body language. I closely follow all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions, conduct double-checks on doors and fences before leaving, and send detailed updates with photos so you have total peace of mind.
“Cheyenne went above and beyond to show kindness to our new dog. She was patient, calm, and made a genuine effort to connect despite our dog’s fearful (and loud) nature. I can’t recommend her highly enough for you and your pets.”
“Jamie cares for my pups regularly, so having her stay with them while I am away is such a great experience! She cares for them like they are her own, and I never worry because they are in the best hands.”
“Juno had an amazing stay, and I couldn't be happier with the care she received. It was clear she was treated with kindness, attention, and plenty of love, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. We received great updates throughout the stay, and came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed dog. We would absolutely book with Wilson again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy Rover sitter.”
“Jamie was wonderful! She took great care of my pups, communicated well, provided updates, and was responsive to any questions I had. I will definitely ask her to care for them again! I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, and my love for them has only grown. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and everything in between—including my own dog through his golden years. I know every dog is unique, and I’m here to give them the personalized care they need! I’m a full-time, stay at home Wife! Therefore, I have the rare flexibility to offer round-the-clock care for your pet. Your dog will receive my full attention throughout the day—whether it’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening snuggles. I no longer have any dogs of my own, which means my home is a calm, pet-free space—ideal for pets who may prefer one-on-one care. I only care for one dog at a time (unless both are from the same family), so your pet gets personalized attention and never has to compete for love or space. I completely understand that trusting someone new with your pets can be unnerving. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether in my home or my client’s home. I create a comfortable, stress-free environment by following their routine, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. From daily walks and feeding to administering medication or providing extra attention for puppies and senior dogs!
“Kristin did an amazing job again watching our 3 dogs for a week & staying at our house while we were out of town! She was very responsive & helpful & cleaned everything before we got home. We trust her completely & highly recommend! Our fur babies miss her already! ❤️”
About: I’ve had various pets in the span of my life including cats,dogs,hamsters,gerbils, guinea pigs,fish, and frogs. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and have experience working in a vet clinic for 3 years, as well as an animal sanctuary. I’ve always enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family, and have cared for blind and diabetic dogs, as well as ones with behavioral issues. One of my cats has separation anxiety, and I know what it’s like to worry and not want to leave your babies alone. I will give them plenty of love and entertain them while you’re away! And as I currently don’t own a dog, I would love nothing more than a furry friend to spend time with! I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible throughout the week! I’m typically available to check in on your pet up to 3 times a day. As a pet owner myself, I understand worrying about them while being away. I’m a very reliable person that would give the upmost care and love for your baby. I would love to send updates and pictures to you often to give you peace of mind! I’m also very willing to do the small household chores like cleaning cages/litter boxes/ any messes they may make.

I care for every pet like it’s my own! With lots of attention and love, whether it’s long walks, playtime or just hanging out with them. I follow your pets routine and can send updates.
About: We’ve had pets all our lives, both dogs and cats, and we love the furball we have at home, we have extra love to give to yours too!

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.
Such a great experience with Kelsey! From start to finish, the communication was excellent—she checked in regularly, sent photos, and kept us updated so we always knew our dog was happy and cared for. It gave me total peace of mind while we were away. She treated our home respectfully and made sure our dog kept to their normal routine, which I really appreciated. My family and I came back to a relaxed, well-loved pup and a tidy home. We’ll absolutely be booking again for future trips! 🐶💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in New Hope is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $67 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.

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.
