“Juliana and Caleb were absolutely fantastic dog sitters for our pups, Waverly and Fisher! They stayed at our home for 4 days and provided exceptional care. They made sure our dogs had plenty of playtime, sent us daily updates with adorable photos, and kept our home spotless. Their love for animals and dedication to their care truly shone through. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend booking with them for a worry-free, wonderful experience!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Megan and Vincent! This was our first time using their service, and we couldn’t be happier with the care Molly received. They kept us updated while we were away by sending pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We also came home to find our home left in perfect condition. It was such a relief to be able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Molly was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. We truly appreciate the care and attention they gave her and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur babies!”
“Paul was wonderful with our pups - he was amazing at communicating with us every day just as we asked and sent plenty of pictures and videos. We felt very comfortable leaving our furry loved ones with him. He did an amazing job and we would absolutely hire him again.”
“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!”
“This was our first experience with Bryan. Throughout the whole process Bryan was extremely professional and caring. He made it a point to get down on our pet's level to help them feel comfortable. He sent several photos and videos which helped us enjoy our time away. We will defiantly be reaching out to Bryan again for future house sitting needs!”
“My dog decided to be difficult the day that Kathleen was pet sitting for us. She would not let her leash her, but Kathleen was consistent and gained her trust and was eventually able to leash her. Kathleen was wonderful with my dogs and I would highly recommend her.”
“Hannah recently watched our golden retriever and Siamese cat rescue while we were away for a wedding, and from start to finish we couldn't be more impressed. From the very first meeting, her professionalism and compassion was what really stood out - she immediately was able to put our pets (and us!) at ease. When we came back, our babies were in excellent spirits and we found our home looking better than we left it, which was very much appreciated. Hannah is a rare find - reliable, professional, and genuinely kind-hearted. We will definitely be booking her again and cannot recommend her enough to any pet parents looking for peace of mind.”

About: I’ve always owned lots of pets. Currently own 4 dogs. I love animals of all kinds. I work full time and am only available afternoon/evenings and weekends.

“Tracie is fantastic! She took great care of our dogs. She provided detailed updates and lots of photos and videos. One of our dogs is wary of new people and took to Tracie very quickly. She is a dog whisperer! We highly recommend Tracie.”
“Heidi was wonderful with our big boy, Jake! At our “meet and greet,” Heidi built an instant rapport with Jake. During her stay, she followed all of our requests for his care, made sure he was happy, and sent us photos every day. She also took great care of our home during her stay. It was great to return from our trip - finding Jake very happy and our home just as we left it - Heidi exceeded all of our expectations!”
About: Ive had pets my whole life including but not limited to fresh / saltwater fish, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, and dogs. As well as experience in pet sitting for friends. I grew up riding horses and attending camps so I have experience in feeding, grooming, and turning out as well. I'm currently attending college online part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. Wether it may be a walk or some outdoor playtime I'm on it! Every morning I wake up and make it a part of my routine to take care of my furry friends. This may be a walk or even just playing fetch in the yard. Its been a routine in my schedule since I was a little girl. Having owned cats, dogs, and other small rodents prepared me for whatever responsibility I may face in my day to day life!
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 2:30 PM to 8:30 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!

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.

The average cost of House Sitting in New Park is $157 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $91 and $165 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 Park 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 Park 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 Park 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.
