“Ricky was fantastic. Stewie felt so comfortable with him, and we can tell Ricky took care of him as if he was his own. Will definitely be booking Ricky for future dog sitting needs.”
“Deborah was fantastic! She watched my 10 year old rescue lab mix for a week, who required daily meds and lots of attention. She made adjustments to make sure she kept up with regular meds and eating. She also provided frequent updates and pictures! ❤️ Highly recommend!”
“We are SO grateful that Soly was available to stay at our house for three weeks while we were away! Everything went so smoothly starting with the meet & greet. Soly arrived at our house ready with questions and took thorough notes on everything we went over. He did such an amazing job caring for our dog, Phoebe as well looking after our turtle that is housed in a 75 gallon tank. We felt very at ease with receiving regular updates on how things were going and appreciated how attentive Soly was with our pets. He went above and beyond to make sure all our plants were watered, mail was collected, and parts of the house were vacuumed and cleaned. Soly even made a special trip to the store to grab more lettuce for our turtle! After a long day of traveling, we came back to a clean house and happy pets. And a new toy and treat for Phoebe sitting on our table :) ‘Most Thoughtful Pet Sitter’ award goes to Soly. We will definitely be using him as our go-to sitter!!”
“Allison was great! We needed a sitter fairly last minute due to a cancellation, and she worked out perfectly! She was communicative, easy to work with, left the house clean, and we could tell the pups were well cared for. We would definitely use her again!”
“Sammie was great! She arrived on time- stayed a little later too. Remy seemed happy and tired from a good night! This was our first Rover experience and we’re very pleased it went so well!”
“Fantastic. Would highly recommend. Communicated the whole weekend, dogs were a gem to come home to; not overly upset that we left them, and almost sad to see us and not Julie :)”
“Genevieve stayed at our house to watch Marlow for the weekend. She did a great job, was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Anna was great! She cared for our dog, gave detailed daily updates and sent lots of pictures. My pup was happy and healthy when I got home from my trip. Will be requesting another house sitting service soon!”
“Lillie was great, and Gilligan seemed right at home with her. She made sure to provide updates and send pictures. I really appreciated her staying in touch and I plan to use her again in the future!”
“We really enjoyed Matthew as our sitter. He was very gracious, kind and professional. He adapted well to our chaos (😂) and he cleaned up after himself! It was pretty amazing to come home to the kitchen clean, bed sheets stripped and the dogs having been walked and looking perfectly happy. Felt so good to know they were so well cared for. We would absolutely love to have Matthew again.”
“Hanna did a fantastic job of caring for our dogs. They both love her so much. Very grateful when we get the opportunity to use her because we know that the dogs are in good hands.”
“Isabel was excellent! She took great care of our dog, and provided regular updates and photos of their time together. It felt like we hadn’t left. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My dad used to train labs for retrieving pheasants as a child. I’ve always been a responsible pet owner. From rescue to full breed, puppies and seniors; large or small, all have gone through puppy training, and always up to date on any veterinary care. I’m able to administer meds and/or shots. They are not pets, but a part of our family. Our dogs are walked daily. I would love to walk and care for yours if my services are needed for your fur babies. Because I’m a stay at home dog mom, my schedule is super flexible to help with your pets needs. Walking, house sitting, transport, meds distribution. We have two dogs and two cats in our home. I’m able to walk yours, care for yours, administer meds, transport and pet sit in your home.
“Andrea took such great care of my dog, who after the weekend was happily tired out and had obviously gotten lots of love and cuddles! Andrea was also respectful of my home, leaving towels hung up, and cleaning up after Enola in the back yard. 10/10 reccomend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Northview on Rover is $42.18 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 913 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Northview. 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 Northview 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 Northview 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 Northview 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 Northview. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
