“Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.”
“McKayla was an outstanding in home pet sitter for my cats! She made me feel completely at ease during my trip with her daily check ins which included pics of everybody looking content in her care. Will be utilizing her services again and again!”
“Hannah did wonderful with our dog Lexi. You could tell that Lexi enjoyed having Hannah at the house, she was a happy girl. The house was clean and in order!! We have booked our next time away with Hannah!!”
“Olivia was fantastic! She was flexible with our schedule, always timely, and took amazing care of our puppies. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing we had someone we could truly trust while we were away. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.”
“I had a last minute cancellation for pet sitting and was able to find Peter whom did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog. He took my dog on nice walking trails and gave me suggestions on caretaking him. Peter is really down to earth and I believe my dog really trusted and enjoyed his company. I am very grateful to Peter and hope he has success in pet sitting in the future!”
“Paige took great care of my dog while I was away. She was respectful of my home and left it just as it was when I departed. I would highly recommend her to anyone, as she is great with the animals in her care!”
“Kendra did a wonderful job making friends with our dog, who we have never left at home. She worked steadily to build his trust, and gave him lots of time to accept her putting him on a slip lead a going for a walk. We really look forward to having Kendra dog-sit for us again! Cheers!”
“Nico was great with our dogs, Sammy and Hazel! He stayed at our house and sent daily updates. The dogs seemed happy when we returned home! He was also very responsive leading up to the trip. It’s great to be able to leave for a long weekend and not worry. I would recommend Nico!”
About: I have cared for both small dogs and medium sized dogs. Have implemented special diets (Farmer's Dog) given medications through food or a treat. Assisted in foster care. Can follow leash and harness preferences and always have poop bags on the ready. I have slept beside puppies who are needy throughout the night. I am a full time K-12 art teacher so I would be available for any pet care services mostly on the weekends and few selected nights throughout the week. I would stay in the areas of the home that the pet is residing and or whichever areas that the client feels comfortable with. Example being the living room or dining room.
“I can't recommend Sarah enough! She was amazing to our fur babies and honestly Winnie was totally spoiled with picnics and play dates while we were away. I hope we can have her back with us for our next trip!!”
“This is our second time using Nikki for our anxious dog and she was great! Our dog seemed to warm up to her immediately, she sent regular updates, and left our house spotless. It can be really nerve-wracking having a stranger watch your pet/stay in your house but we have no concerns about Nikki at all. She is definitely our new go to dog sitter, highly recommend!”
“Another great experience leaving Rosie in the care of Stefanie. When she's not sure about something, she'll reach out, but basically Stefanie has it all under control. Rosie is well cared for and my house is too. Can't say enough nice things about Stefanie!”
“We were VERY happy with Stephanie!! It was our first experience with Rover and she made it a very easy and smooth experience. She took time to come meet our dogs before the weekend sit, asked good questions and interacted with our “girls” nicely. We have no hesitation to use her again and would recommend her highly!”
“Excellent communication and was very responsive to my request for a sitter. Sent videos and photos of my dogs to keep me updated. The dogs looked to be having a blast with her. Would use her again.”
“Bev was super attentive to our pups!! She was also very communicative, sending us updates and photos daily of what the dogs were up to and responding quickly when we had questions. She really took great care of our dogs and we will be using her anytime we need a dog sitter. She's part of the family now! She's the best!!”
About: About Me: Your Dog's Next Best Friend 🐾 All my life, my world has revolved around four-legged family members. I’ve been caring for dogs since before I could even walk, and I’ve long been the go-to pet sitter for my entire family. I truly understand that every dog has a unique personality and their own special way of showing affection. For me, pet sitting isn't just a job—I love spending quality time building trust, learning your dog's unique signals, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you're away. Services I Offer Whether you need a quick check-in or full-day care, I've got you covered: Drop-In Visits & Feedings: Keeping your pup's routine perfectly on track. All-Day Pet Sitting: Dedicated, full-day companionship and care. Adventure Walks (My Specialty!): Perfect for high-energy dogs or pups who love to explore. 🌲 My Specialty: The "Daily Adventure" Walk If your dog loves the great outdoors, they will love staying with me! I walk my own dog between 3 to 6 miles a day, exploring local trails and discovering new environments. I believe that changing up walking routes keeps a dog mentally stimulated and deeply engaged. By turning a standard bathroom break into a fresh adventure, your pup stays excited, happy, and pleasantly tired out by the time you get home. Ready to level up your fur-baby's daily activity? I’m the reliable, active, and loving sitter you’ve been looking for. Let’s connect and chat about your pup's routine! I currently work part time so there is plenty of time in my schedule to take care of your fur baby! I can walk and feed your pets in the morning and will be back in time to take care of them in the evening! Hey pet parents! I’m an active, outdoor-loving pet sitter who specializes in turning boring workdays into mini-adventures for your pup. If you have a dog with energy to burn, I’m your person! From brisk cardio walks to interactive playtime that keeps their minds sharp, I make sure your dog gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to be calm and relaxed by the time you get home. I offer dedicated dog walking and pet sitting services tailored entirely to your routine. I understand safety is a big concern for every pet owner. I always include real-time photo updates during every visit. If there is ever an emergency I will always call and let the owner know. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own.

We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.
Ben was fantastic! He kept me updated on Boots' medications and sent the cutest pictures of all 3 pups throughout his stay. He also took excellent care of our home, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others!
McKayla took wonderful care of my dog Ricky and cat Sequoia. She sent lots of great pictures and kept me updated which helped me relax and enjoy my short vacation. I think Ricky fell in love with her! 😍 I am happy to provide a review for this lovely pet sitter. 🐶😺
We just had Sarah watch our two dogs in our home for the second time and she was absolutely fantastic! One of our dogs recently hurt his leg and she went above and beyond administering his medication, walking him on a leash in our backyard, and keeping a close eye on him. Would 1000% recommend Sarah!
We went away for a week and had Nicole take care of our dog Teddy. He is very shy and not used to strangers. He warmed up to her immediately and they had a great week. She sent us pictures of him and kept us aware of what he was doing each day. The house was perfectly kept and I really felt confident being away and not worrying about the dog or our home. I would absolutely use Nicole again. She was responsible and reliable.

FAQs for House Sitting - Penllyn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Penllyn on Rover is $41.63 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 5,932 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Penllyn. 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 Penllyn 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 Penllyn 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 Penllyn 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 Penllyn. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
