“All care requested was met with flying colors! My fur babes were in the best care so happy when I returned home like they had been on vacation too! I got photos everyday of their goofy sweet faces”
About: I have always taken care of my dog when my family goes on vacays and also have dog sat for my neighbors and my cousin! I currently work part time so i’ll be available before/after work and on weekends as well. my shifts are typically only 4 hours so they won’t be alone for long! I always make sure they have lots of play time and make sure they are well taken care of. I love all pets like they are my own!
“Tracy was a great dog and house sitter. She kept me updated on a regular basis, and I felt like our pup was in good hands. Really appreciate the peace of mind while we had to be away.”
About: I come from a family who worked alongside wildlife conservation groups since I was young, raising infant squirrels, tending to sick horses and of course, our own dogs and cats. I was raised with animals of all kind, reptiles even, and so it is to my belief that they deserve the same level of care and respect that we would give to our own real children. All critters and furry companions alike need love. 🩵 I’m a disabled novelist and creative so that gives me plenty of free time to care for your animal companions! Just shoot me a message and let’s figure out a solution to your needs. I only offer out of home care, aka house sitting, visits to feed and other walk pets. My home has a cat and would not be a safe environment to invite other animals into. Her safety is my top priority.
About: Hi! My name is Brandy! I have a certificate for zoo and domestic animal care from yavapai college in Arizona. I am also a dog owner of 11 years. I have certified both my dogs through the petsmart training courses. I have learned a lot through school and owning dogs of my own and have always had a passion for animals. Thanks so much for considering me for your furry babies! I am a server working part time and am looking for a way to make a little extra money on the side doing something I love! I am available for dog walking Monday-Sunday anytime before 2:30 and available Monday-Wednesday for overnights or whatever you may need as those are my days off. I will not be able to board any animals as I have a bit of a reactive border collie at my house but am available to come to your house for your needs
“Communication was excellent. My two cocker spaniels were happy and content when we arrived home. The house was immaculate. Alicia went above and beyond. She even washed and folded laundry I had left in the hamper. Will definitely book again”
“As always kammie goes above and beyond. Sending lots of pictures, taking ronan out for walks, cleaning up his food and water area, and even sweeping the main area. Thank you so much!”
“Brittany is an amazing dog sitter!! She’s so sweet and put my mind at ease right away. Brittany loves animals, she took great care of my pup and my house. She also took pics and videos so I could see what my baby was up to. Don’t hesitate, you can trust her with your fur baby! My vaca was stress free knowing my dog was in great hands with Brittany.”
“Brianne was amazing with our chaotic, nutty furry bunch! We left her with our trio of cats and the dynamic duo of dogs, for a total of five. The first thing we noticed was how all of our furry ones were drawn to her. Animals just know if a person is good. Being away is hard, but it feels better when you have someone you can trust to love you while you're gone. My wife and I had complete peace of mind with her caring for our babies. Brianne is the BEST!”
About: Ive taken care of mostly pitbulls. I had a an adorable pitbull growing up he was the sweetest. Ive took care of puppies and helped raise them. Im currently working part time and I have a car so distance won't be a problem. I love animals so taking care of and meeting new animals is a dream come true. I can make sure the animals are stimulated correctly and pay attention to them. I will give them plenty of love and be kind to them. I will follow through on all pet parent responsibilities
About: Each pet has their own personality and style, and I adapt to exactly what your pets need and want! If they want cuddles, they get cuddles! If they want space, they get space. It’s all about the precious pets needs for me! I provide a five-star service and I will keep communication very open ended. I am also very flexible. I treat all pets with the same kindness and respect they deserve. I will treat your pet exactly how I would treat my precious little fur baby. A little bit about me...When I came to college I was forced to leave my dog at home. If you are worried about your dog not getting enough love or attention under my care I promise that you could not be more wrong, I've got so much love to give! I am available full time to accommodate you and your precious one/ones. Anything needed, short notice, “unruly” dogs… I am willing to help! Late night/Early Morning, 24/7! I have a fully fenced in back yard. I have lots of toys that any dog would love to play with! Very comfortable and clean environment.
About: I have had taken care of/lived with various dog breeds, and have walked and raised dogs since I can remember. I have volunteered at Alaqua walking and playing with dogs, and I have experience dog sitting and walking dogs via Rover and family connections. I have worked with puppies, middle aged dogs, older dogs, both big and small! I love dogs unconditionally and I will do everything in my power to ensure they stay spoiled and happy :). As of now, I am attending University of Central Florida, so I am willing to work around my classes and my work schedule once I find a stable job! I cannot care for pets at my own home, but I will ensure that when I come to your home, I will keep it looking good as new. I am a chronic dish washer if any dishes or slight cleaning needs to be made. I am also no stranger to accidents that dogs are prone to, as one of my past dogs had a sensitive stomach, especially when it came to my carpeted floors. I will do whatever your dog wants to do, but my favorite aspect of it all is to ensure that the dog is happy and to make a connection with them. I love being active and playing, but I can also just simply snuggle up with them.
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Madison made me feel at ease, this is the first time I left Buddy with anyone. Buddy sleeps in bed with me so Madison slept in my bed so Buddy wasn't alone at night. Thank you so much!!!!”
“Courtney was really sweet. She took very good care of Luna. Luna got comfortable with her immediately. I highly recommended Courtney to take care of your fur friend. She was also flexible with the hours. We felt very comfortable and happy”
“Hailey is a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter, a caring and thoughtful caregiver and house sitter! We highly recommend her and will definitely be hiring her again. She watched our two big dogs for us and did an amazing job!”
About: I love all animals. I will do my best to take care of your animals exactly as instructed and give them the love you wish to. I’m in college but am not taking any classes currently so I am very free. And when I do have classes, I usually only have 1 a day maybe 2. I make sure they have an adequate amount of food and water. Their litter is scooped or let out, and give them lots of love and maybe treats.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pennichaw
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pennichaw on Rover is $16.65 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,178 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pennichaw. 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 Pennichaw 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 Pennichaw 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 Pennichaw 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.
