“This is our second time working with Diana and we can’t recommend her enough. Our old dogs can be pretty high maintenance, but she does a great job caring for them when we’re away. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience with this sitter! Antonio was so nice and responsive, keeping me updated throughout the stay. The pups were clearly well taken care of and happy. He left the house clean and followed instructions provided. Will definitely be using Antonio again!”
“Sydney was the best host I could possibly ask for. She kept my puppy for two days, and because of her frequent updates and pictures I was able to spend time with my family overseas stress-free. I know I’ve found someone I can trust for a long time with my fur-baby, I hope you too will give Sydney a chance. Tbh I didn’t want to leave such a glowing review for her because I know she’ll be booked out for the rest of the year then - she’s a hidden gem, you truly wont regret having her be your pet’s caretaker. Thank you again for your help, I really really appreciate it Sydney”
“Jovelle is very responsive and super accommodating! So helpful when watching your house and goes above and beyond what I would have ever expected. Our dogs love her and she has been great with them. We will definitely be using her services again, thank you Jovelle!”
“We really appreciated Isaiah staying with our 3 pyrenees. He kept us updated with photos and notes, and the house was just like we left it. Will definitely work with Isaiah again.”
“Heather took great care of our three high maintenance dogs! We've got two young, active dogs and an old grandpa guy. Lots of medications and different diets for everyone. Heather took great care of everyone and met everyone's individual needs! We got picture updates and everyone always looked loved and happy. We will hire Heather again for sure.”
“Paulo stayed with our babies for a little over a week. They both have health issues that can be annoying to anyone and I felt like they were being loved while I was gone. He was very communicative while we were away and I had peace of mind knowing what was going on. He sent a lot of videos of the dogs having a great time, and he asked questions when they were doing abnormal things. He even went out of his way to pick up a heavy bag of dog food because I hadn’t planned their food very well. And he restocked other things in the house that I didn’t expect him to like doggy wipes and paper towels. On top of that he washed all of the sheets and blankets before I got back. Thank you Paulo 😊”
“Monica is amazing! She took such good care of our pups; specialized walks depending on energy levels, park play, spent time giving attention and love to them while being on top of all medicines or ointments. My dogs absolutely adore her and I will definitely book again and again with her! 🐶🩷🐶🩷”
“Ashley was totally amazing with Manchitas, we left for 3 days and she took care of her very well. She played with her, she walked with her making sure the temperature was not too hot, she gave her all food and medien she needed during the day. And the best part she was most of the time with her in the house. Thanks to her I had an amazing short vacation with my family♥️ thank you so much Ashley , I will totally hire you again. You are amazing 🤩”
“Mike stayed with both of our pups while my husband and I had an overnight and did a great job. Our puppy can be a handful and our older girl suffers from some anxiety… both pups have looked for him every morning! He is very attentive with both dogs and is very patient with all of my instructions😀 we will continue to have Mike watch our babies… pretty soon he may be their favorite human!”
“We were lucky to find Emily to take care of our dog Benny, cat Simon and our house!! Emily was not only sending many updates with pictures and videos, but also took great care of our house!! Honestly, couldn’t ask for a more amazing pet sitter!! 🥰”
“Loved having Sabrina watch our pup! She stayed at our house with our giant moose of a dog. We were able to meet ahead of time. Everything went smoothly, she was in constant communication with pics and Simba seemed to love her. She was really sweet when we met too and very trustworthy. Would absolutely book with her again!”
About: Hi! We’re sisters and we speak spanish🫶🏻. We have 3 dogs and a deep affection for dogs. We had our eldest dog for 14 years! We grew up with dogs in our lives from a young age and have always treated them like family. In 2024 we had to nurse our puppy from a very deadly illness and she is happy and healthy now. I, Wendy, am a baker and dog lover! I work for a day care in the mornings and a bakery on the weekends. I love to spend my free time caring for other dogs and making sure they have a reliable pet sitter. I do much research for healthy treats and food and fun activities for my dogs. I care a lot about their well-being and am I always making sure they are fed,warm, and loved for. I, Daniela, am a college student majoring in Biology 🧪. I am also a certified phlebotomist 🩸. I love to meet new dogs and care for them! Rover is my current occupation while I’m studying. I have a big heart and lots of time to spend getting to know your dog and their mannerisms. I have 3 dogs at different age stages who have different needs but I am available all day. I have scheduled feedings and walks and time for their medicine. I have a very open schedule and can make time and space for more dogs. I have a fenced yard and a gated side yard(with roof) if needed to separate the dogs. I have a small crate and XL crate if needed. I also have a dedicated dog room with a gate indoors. I will make sure your dog feels safe and secure at all times.

I had a great experience with this sitter! Antonio was so nice and responsive, keeping me updated throughout the stay. The pups were clearly well taken care of and happy. He left the house clean and followed instructions provided. Will definitely be using Antonio again!
Another amazing housesitting stay for our 3 pups! We reached out last minute when our first human baby decided to make her grand entrance to the world earlier than expected and are just so grateful our pups got to be cared for by Antonio again. He truly takes care of our pups as if they are his own and his willingness AND ability to accommodate whatever might come up for them means so much to my family! Thank you, Antonio!
Rebecca stayed in our home with our newly adopted German shepherd mix and our yellow lab while we were away for three days, and we couldn’t have been happier with her. Since it was our first time leaving Cali, we really appreciated Rebecca’s thoughtful communication—she sent regular photo updates, was incredibly responsive, and clearly understood our need for reassurance. She also recognized the unique needs of an active, intelligent shepherd and handled everything beautifully. I highly recommend Rebecca and will definitely be booking her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Nortonville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Nortonville on Rover is $79.35 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,778 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nortonville. 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 Nortonville 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 Nortonville 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 Nortonville 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.
