About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for over 20 years. I have taken care of pets for friends and family for a number of years. For me this not a job, it’s something that I love to do. I would make your pets, feel comfortable and like they were at their own home comfy, cozy and loved. I am free any day of the week. I am a stay at home mom, housewife and dog lover (Stella). My dream is to have a farm full of animals like chickens, goats, and whatever my husband would let me have 😂😂. I have a nice backyard with a very friendly golden doodle (Stella) that gets along with anybody. I live in a great neighborhood for taking long walks with Stella.
“We’re starting to think our dogs might like Jonas more than us 🤣. As always, our minds were at ease thanks to Jonas’ great care of our pups and frequent updates. We’re so lucky to have found you.”
“10 out of 10 ! Craig and Chelsea were amazing! Extremely professional, knowledgeable and very intuitive when it came to caring for my boy! I was very impressed with the initial on boarding and the time Craig took to understand our pet’s needs, and behaviors to ensure it was a seamless experience while we were away . He had a terrific manner in meeting our pet for the first time and one could tell immediately that this was someone that truly cared for our pet’s wellbeing. It was the first time we left our pet alone to travel since rescuing him and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable that he was in good care than if left him with a family member!! We received regular updates and came home to a spotless home . Craig went above and beyond and it was overall a terrific experience!!! Thank you, thank you , thank you !!”
“Daniel stayed at our home for 4 days and took excellent care of our girl Chloe and the house itself. His relaxed nature is perfect for our dog and he was extremely conscientious, checking in with us now and then to let us know that things were going well and leaving our dog happy and our home in excellent condition. His communication was prompt and clear. Definitely a 5 star experience.”
“Lauren did a wonderful job watching our older pup, Lucy and our new puppy, Ashe! She was timely, communicative and a pleasure to work with. We will absolutely use her again in the future. We highly recommend booking with Lauren!”
“Taryn stayed at my house with Moxie for eight days and seven nights. She sent daily check-in texts with photos. She took great care of Moxie with walks and cuddles. And Taryn left the house in great shape for my return. I recommend her highly. Moxie loved her!”
“Kay was vey attentive and kind to Bacchus. She took great care of him during our two nights trip! She gave him walks and played with him with his favorite tennis balls in the backyard. She sent update and photos to me. We truly appreciate her stay-home-care for Bacchus.”
“Emily was amazing with our dogs and our home! Our girl dog is very shy and hesitant with a lot of people but she took right to Emily the first day! She took great care of both our dogs and sent us photo and text updates, which made us feel at ease they were in great hands! We look forward to having her stay with our pups for our future sitting needs!!”
“Felicia took care of our home and 4 small dogs for a week. The dogs can be quite a handful and she did very well with them. Everyone was happy and bouncy upon our return home. Will book with her again without any reservations.”
“Toni was so great with our two large dogs. We went away for a couple nights and couldn’t have felt more at ease. She followed the directions we left, kept us updated, and provided lots of snuggles to our big mushes. We would (and will) use her again anytime and highly recommend.”
About: Every animal has a story. Mine began long before I ever thought of pet care as a service — it began with connection. From the shy pup curled in the corner to the elderly dog whose slow steps spoke of trust earned, I’ve learned that every animal communicates in its own language of wagging tails, soft purrs, and trusting eyes. Over decades, I’ve walked alongside puppies discovering grass for the first time and supported senior dogs whose gentle steps reflect a lifetime of loyalty. With every house sit, I’m not just caring for pets — I’m honoring the bond you share with them, giving reassurance through consistent routines, heartfelt playtimes, and quiet moments of comfort. What sets me apart is not only my experience but my ability to read body language, anticipate needs, and bring peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pets are the rhythm of my day — they shape my mornings with excitement and my evenings with calm connection. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to be present for walks when the air is crisp, for quiet cuddle time when hearts need soothing, and for check-ins that give owners peace of mind. I simply ask for a day’s notice so I can plan the best moments with your beloved companion. Your pet’s safety is my promise. In my one-story home filled with warmth and gentle energy, two rescue cats have taught me the art of patience, play, and respect for personal space. Our quiet neighborhood offers leash-friendly strolls and ample paths to explore at a comfortable pace. I ensure a calm, structured, and loving environment that supports routine, comfort, and trust.
“Avery was so wonderful. He handled my reactive dogs, my senior dog, and ours kitties so kindly and patiently. Two of my dogs decided it was the perfect time to tussle, Avery was able to quickly clean them up and back to being buddies again. I was given the perfect amount of updates. Avery is super easy to work with and was willing to help out with watering plants as a last minute request. He left my home tidy making it easy on my family to return to. 100% will hire again.”
“We were so pleased with the care that Amy provided our pups! She was thoughtful and super conscientious, sending photos and updates on their fun! Arriving home to three relaxed dogs confirmed they were well taken care of! Thanks Amy ?”
“Kayla did a full week overnight stay with our 2 dogs and cat. She was very respectful of our house and flexible with our multiple requests during the week. Our dogs are both 9 years old and this is the first time they have ever been left with a sitter. Kayla made us feel very comfortable they would be her priority and well taken care of. I highly recommend Kayla and will be requesting her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young, but just started pet sitting a couple years ago and have worked in the veterinarian field for 5 yrs now. You can also find me helping out in the kennel some days. I currently work full time at a veterinary clinic, usually 4 days a wk. I do work 10 hour days, but always make it a point to go back for a potty break at lunch when housesitting. I have a large, unfenced yard. I do have a tie out or can walk on leash. There are 2 cats in house, that are used to dogs being around. There is also a rabbit, but he is caged.
About: I am a flexible working professional. Most of my family members have either a dog or a cat that I have taken care of for as long as I can remember. I love all dogs no matter the size or breed. I am a previous collegiate student-athlete and am still very active, so playing with your pets and taking them for walks is right up my ally. I am happy to help with house sitting, dropping by, or taking them for a walk. I look forward to helping you out with your care needs for your pets and spending time with them. I am currently in the off-season of my full-time job, so my schedule is very flexible. I will need to travel some weekends for work, but besides that I am flexible during the week and on weekends. My priority is to respect a client's home and provide the best care for their animals. I create an atmosphere built on trust and dependability.

Craig and Chelsea are the best. They are great with our four dogs, including our especially needy Italian Greyhound. They are super organized and excel at communication. When my husband’s flight was delayed they went the extra mile to make sure our dogs were cared for. Thank you Craig and Chelsea!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pejepscot
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pejepscot on Rover is $66.6 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 611 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pejepscot. 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 Pejepscot 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 Pejepscot 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 Pejepscot 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.
