“Noah is the best!! We had a friend cancel on us and he came through last minute to house and pet sit. It was our first time booking on Rover and we were a tad nervous to leave our pets and house with someone we didn't know, but were so at ease once we met him. Our pets loved him and he left our house in perfect shape. 10/10 recommend booking him!”
“She is amazing!!! I was incredibly nervous using the app, she made me feel very comfortable and kept me updated the whole time I was gone! Will definitely recommend her to others!”
“Madison is the BEST! She had great communication and was great with our dogs , they seemed sleepy and content when we got home :). She also took care of our home and garden with love”
“Dawn does a wonderful job of caring for our 3 boys. We love having her as their sitter. She provides excellent communication, which gives us peace of mind while we are away.”
“Loarann was amazing!! This was my first time using in-home boarding so I was nervous but she was so sweet and so communicative. I never once had to worry or wonder what was going on which is huge for when you go on a trip that’s stressful enough! I honestly think she left the place better than she found it and was so kind about my house being kind of a sight these days because of renovations. She seems to truly love animals and I will 100% use her again in the future, no question.”
“Sophia took wonderful care of our 3 fur-babies. We were kept up to date and provided lots of pictures while we traveled. She followed our care instructions perfectly and went above and beyond our expectations!!”
About: I have been around and taken care of cats, dogs, and other small animals my entire life. I was also Store Manager of a pet store for 5 years. I only work part-time so there will be plenty of time for walking, playing, and whatever else your fur-baby needs. Pets don't fit into my schedule, they are my schedule. I have researched and implemented what care and environment I believe is best for my pets and am willing to provide that for other pet parents.
“We had an excellent experience with our house sitter. They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of both our home and pets while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind throughout the stay. Our pets were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when we returned, and our home was left clean and in great condition. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.”
“Summer did an amazing job! She kept me updated daily, letting me know when she was at the house and what she and Roxie did, even including pictures. I will definitely be using Summer anytime I have to travel.”
“Isabel has been a God-send!!!! I’ve had her sit my dogs a few times now, and she is always prompt, she follows my directions to the letter and most importantly, my dogs loved her from the first time she walked through my door! They are always happy to see her. She has taken a huge worry off of me since one of my dogs had surgery and I had to be away for work.”
“She took great care of my pup, like it was her own, will definitely book her again, communication was great, updates were given frequently and very respectful of my home with the overnight stay, thank you”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need training reinforcement to senior pets who require patience and gentle handling. As a veteran, I bring reliability, attention to detail, and calm leadership that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable administering basic medications, supporting senior dogs with mobility challenges, and keeping up with energetic pups who need exercise and structure. What sets me apart is consistency—you can count on me to be on time, communicate clearly, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my days so I’m available for morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care. I'm home constantly, which allows me to focus on the needs of each pet. Whether it’s regular daily walks, weekend sitting, or last-minute bookings, I ensure pets receive consistent attention and care when their families are unable to be there. Safety and trust come first in every home I step into. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walk routes, and I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to ensure pets stay safe. I provide plenty of positive attention, consistent communication with updates and photos, and a calm presence that helps pets feel secure. My goal is to give every family peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and treated like my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I got my puppy at 14 years old. Aside from that, I have taken care of family members animals for weeks at a time! I love animals (dogs especially) and love going on walks with them and playing inside/outside! I will take amazing care of any dog no matter the size or age. I don’t currently work full time so I would be very flexible and easy to communicate with! Working with your schedule specifically would be very easy for me! I don’t have the amenities to care for a dog overnight at my house because I have a small yard. But I would love to care for them at your house, or just go on walks!
“Chelsea was phenomenal watching our two dogs while we went away for a weekend trip! From the moment we left, she went above and beyond—sending regular pictures and videos that gave us complete peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. She made sure our pups had everything they needed, stuck closely to their routines, and clearly treated them like her own. Her communication, attention to detail, and genuine care exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, reliable pet sitter. 11/10!”
“Monese is fabulous! She took excellent care of Odin so I could enjoy some time at the beach. She was communicative, friendly and helped keep my anxious pup calm while I was out. I will be rebooking her services as soon as possible.”
“You can trust Bella. She was super communicative and so organized. She even kept a journal of how many treats our 3 babies got. Our house was in better shape than we left it. Our flight got significantly delayed and Bella stepped in and stayed an extra night and took so much stress off a stressful situation. So grateful we found her. We will definitely have her take care of our house and animals again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pace
We had an excellent experience with our house sitter. They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of both our home and pets while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind throughout the stay. Our pets were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when we returned, and our home was left clean and in great condition. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.
Alyssa did a wonderful job. She sent pictures of my babies and I could tell they were being very well cared for. She was very good with communication throughout her stay which I really appreciate. She is an excellent sitter and I would definitely have her back again.
Michael was absolutely phenomenal ! I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone for dog sitting. I received photos of all the dogs going on walks and playing with a frisbee in the backyard all the days we were gone. Thea, our rescue, was abused before she was adopted and she warmed up to him very quickly and was included in all activities the two other dogs were doing.
Summer is so caring for our fur babies. We are always so thankful to have her stay with them and care for them like we do. She follows every direction and ensures medicine is delivered to our dogs as nexessary. She is very respectful of our home as well on her overnight visits. Overall, she does a fabulous job and I would recommend her to anyone!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pace
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pace on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 538 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pace. 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 Pace 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 Pace 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 Pace 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.

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.
