About: I grew up around big and small dogs and have had cats, snakes, and turtles. I worked at a vet clinic for a couple months then moved to working at an animal humane society for a year and a half, I am now working at a doggy daycare and have dog/house sat for some family friends. I have experienced in special needs senior pups and I have experienced with rabbits as well. I currently have 3 dogs, 5 cats, a rabbit, and a betta fish and my personal pets. I work Monday-Friday and mainly work 6:30am-1:30pm. I have plenty of time after work to spend time walking and caring for the furry friends, I work no weekends so the furry friends will have some full days of love and attention. Depending on the needs of the pet and the parents instructions I like to do at least 30 minutes of playtime and enrichment, if no fenced yard depending on age and size of day, 30 minutes of walking around the neighborhood and playtime inside of home or enrichment
“Heather was excellent - I would highly recommend her. She stayed overnight with my 15 year old dog and gave him his meds as well. I felt very comfortable with her in the house and Munson, my shitzu, loved her.”
“Noa did a phenomenal job taking care of my boys. She made sure they were good, sent plenty of pictures and videos and even stayed longer sometimes to make sure they weren’t by themselves too long. Would definitely recommend and use again! They were in great hands”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and started pet sitting when I was 14. I have looked after many different animals including dogs, cats, lizards, and a spider! I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior animals and animals with disabilities as well. I am currently working a part time job so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets! If I am needed on an hourly basis, let me know two weeks beforehand so I can schedule time off work. I can stay overnight at your house if needed I will not bring your pets over to my home because my own dog is unsure about other animals. I like to stay with the animals for two hours each time I check in on them to keep them company and to play with them. I can also stay overnight and all day if needed.
“Jana was great for us and Mocha. She is the perfect fit for our dog sitting needs. She had our dog for almost two weeks and while we were away she ensured that Mocha had plenty of exercise and love. We had peace of mind and that’s what really matters. We trust her implicitly and will definitely use her in the future. Thanks Jana🐶!”
“Allison was a wonderful house-sitter in every way! She was patient and skilled with our three pups. She followed all of our care instructions, sent frequent photos and updates, and asked questions as needed. We could tell that our pups quickly were comfortable with Allison, so we were able to enjoy our weekend away. We returned to happy dogs, and our house was as tidy and clean as when we left. We will definitely use Allison again!”
“Taylor took amazing care of Ranger! She even took him for walks! I felt 100% at ease leaving him in her care. She sent pictures regularly, played and snuggled with him! I certainly will book her again!”
“Patrice was fantastic housesitting for our elderly dog and young pup for a week. They had great care and Patrice kept us well-informed when one of the dogs didn’t seem to feel well for a day or so. It was a great comfort to have someone who cares so much about animals and their well-being looking after the dogs while we were away!”
“Jarrod was a fantastic dog sitter for our 3 pups while we were gone for the weekend! He is very friendly and easy to work with. During his stay, the dogs got plenty of attention and walks; we got plenty of pictures and updates. One of our dogs can be untrusting of strangers, but he quickly warmed up to Jarrod. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for top quality services.”
About: I have experience with taking care of friends and families pets, keeping things cleaned and on the correct feeding schedule. I was a bather at a dog grooming salon for the last 3 years where we specialized in aggressive and senior dogs. So I have experience with handling all personality types and dealing with them in a safe manner. I can trim nails and polish them as well as bathe and dry a dog. As of right now I am doing this full time so I have plenty of time to care for other people's pets. I have a set schedule on here to try and keep things organized but it never hurts to ask if I'm willing to do another day. I currently don't have the space to have someone else's pet at my home as it's a small space with 2 cats already but will respect the rules of the clients home and ensure their pet stays safely on their property or when we go on walks.
About: I spent 9 years in Alaska raising, training, racing, and caring for sled dogs, including successfully completing the 2018 Iditarod. During that time, I was responsible for the daily care, health, exercise, feeding, and wellbeing of large teams of dogs in all types of conditions. My experience includes caring for multiple dogs at once, managing high-energy and working breeds, administering medications, monitoring health and behavior, and recognizing the nuances of how dogs communicate. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels—from laid-back seniors to strong, active dogs that require confident handling and structure. I also enjoy working with puppies and young dogs. I'm familiar with potty schedules, crate routines, basic obedience reinforcement, and helping young dogs develop good habits through consistency and positive interactions. Whether your dog(s) wants to go on an adventurous walk, a dependable drop-in visit, or attentive overnight care, I treat every dog as if they were my own and just want to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Special Experience: • 9 years raising, training, and caring for sled dogs • Finisher of the 2018 Iditarod • Experienced with multi-dog households • Comfortable with high-energy and working breeds • Puppy and young dog care experience • Medication administration • Experience with senior dogs and special care needs • Strong leash handling and dog behavior awareness I am currently working full time, with a somewhat abnormal schedule. I am available on weekends, and some other evenings and mornings. I work 7am to 4pm one week, then 10am to 7pm the next week. I can not accommodate pets in my own home at this time. I am happy to travel to, stay with and take care of others' pets and their property.
“Serenity was wonderful. So communicative and there for my animals around the clock. I had a friend drop out at the last minute and was unable to take care of our animals but serenity was ready to take care of them the second I reached out. She has done a great job of taking care of my dog pets needs and making me feel secure in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would love to use her services in the future!”
“Adrienne is the best! Sent me pictures everyday and really loved and took care of my 2 boys. My Senior Pug needed a lot of TLC and he got it! My Corgi got to go for Pup Cups, walks and snuggles. Highly recommend Adrienne.”
“Raven does an excellent job. Very conscientious. Thinks ahead. She took excellent care of my Sugar and was responsive to my requests for updates & pictures of my baby. Super flexible. I would recommend Raven without a second thought to anyone that needs care for their fur baby.”
“Hope was a delight to work with. She was confident and eager and it is evident she loves what she is doing. Sonya was happy and I was comfortable leaving her Hope's care. I look forward to having her for future bookings!”

Katelin is wonderful. I was scrambling a bit to find someone for a night when my regular sitter wasn’t available. Katelin replied right away and came to meet my boys the same day. Excellent communication, updates and pictures while I was away, and always a quick response to any message I sent. All around, a lovely human. She took great care of my boys and I am just so grateful that I found her. : )
Katelin is amazing! She is wonderful with my pups and sends pictures and videos to make sure I get to see them while I'm away. She takes extra care to give them all the attention I would give them if I were home with them and that means the world to me!! She is very communicative and kind.

FAQs for House Sitting - Overpeck
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 1,587 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Overpeck. 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 Overpeck 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 Overpeck 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 Overpeck 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.
