“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: 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

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 8. I had both cats and dogs. I’ve had experience with family pets as heavy as 90 pounds and cats as furry like Persian cats or Sphynx cats which might be a challenge to tend for? I am currently working part time and I can schedule my hours accordingly. That gives me more time to play and tend to your furry family members. I prioritize safety and the comfortability of clients and their pets. When given specific needs for your environment I strive to follow all the requirements to ensure not only the safety but the security of taking care of your pet. I also make sure that other safety precautions/measures are taken when I am within the clients home and when I leave.
About: I’ve grown up with pets! I’m flexible! And you can count on me to - notice small behavior changes - follow routines carefully - not overwhelm anxious or sensitive dogs - stay steady if something unexpected happens We have no dogs of our own at the moment so your pet will be the only one in the house which is great for any dogs who don’t play well with others (: and, our guests enjoy having a fenced in yard and space to run! I work a standard 8–5 during the week, so I intentionally schedule pet care around that. I’m available for morning and evening visits, weekends, and I plan ahead to make sure every pet’s routine is followed carefully and never rushed. I don’t have pets of my own, so I’m able to give my full attention to the pets I’m caring for. I also have a fenced-in yard at my home for safe outdoor play and exercise. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and focus on exercising pets appropriately, then helping them relax and settle in — often with some quiet time or just hanging out together. I aim to keep routines consistent and stress-free.
“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.”

“Alyssah was very good with our dogs. We have never left our dogs and one is elderly and does not adapt easily to anything new. Alyssah made them comfortable for the week we were gone. She sent great pictures and updates. Her communication was awesome. We WILL definitely use her again.”

About: I had a large sized dog for most of my life and grew up with her from the age of a puppy until she passed away my freshman year of high school to old age. She was a pit/lab mix and I loved running with her, cuddling when she was tired, and even allowing her to "play" with me while I do yoga. I have so much love for animals, as I believe they are true reciprocates of unconditional love. I would love to spend time with your animals while you need them cared for. I am an opera singer and voice teacher. Finally, I guess a special skill would be I love relaxation techniques such as yoga, music, sound healing etc, and animals are so attuned to these activities that I could even provide a healing experience for your pet :) Available any time! Was recently let go from my job as a yoga and music teacher in the public school system due to budget cuts, so I am available all day every day beginning this summer! Ive decided to take a break from public school teaching, spend more time singing and studying my voice / music. And take some more freelance type jobs. I am extremely compassionate and really like to provide that space for an animal to feel safe and welcome in my company. I like to build a relationship with animals and eventually find a language of communication where we seem to “get” each other.

About: I have always loved animals, I have grown up with dogs, and I also have 2 cats! Although I don’t often pet sit, I have a lot of experience caring for dogs/cats throughout my own life and assure you I will treat your pets as one of my own! All of my pets have been rescues and some have had disabilities, so I have experience in navigating their behavior and mistrust towards others. My animals are like family to me and I know how nerve racking it is leaving them, so I promise to give your pets the best care while you are gone 💖 I’m currently a student on summer break working part-time! Because my schedule is flexible, there are times I can be available for last minute requests. I am very reliable and dependable! My pets are treated like family and are very well taken care of. My dog is a senior Bechon who has separation anxiety and cannot be alone for long periods of time. Hence, we frequently take him on walks or car rides. One of my cats requires daily medicine and the other is full of energy and loves to play. They are constantly near us to snuggle or receive our attention

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, especially dogs. Some as small as my mom‘s Chihuahua, to dogs as big as my sister‘s great mastiffs. Ive cared for all types of pets and would love to meet many more! Recently I’ve started working part time but I’m open to work around that! I try to be as flexible as I can. If you’d like me to drop in to feed, walk, or watch your pet, I’ll be available. Whatever type of routine your pets have I’m down to follow it. Lots of pets I’ve worked with have specific eating routines, as well as walking routines, I’m here to learn what works best for you.
About: With over 25 years of experience caring for animals, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and hands-on knowledge to every pet I care for. From energetic puppies to gentle senior pets, I’ve nurtured animals through every stage of life. Our home is filled with kindness and activity—my three children have grown up around animals and share my deep love and respect for them. Whether your pet needs playful attention, a cozy cuddle, or a calm and reliable routine, you can trust that they’ll be treated like family in our care. As a homeschooling family, we have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows us to be home throughout the week. This makes it easy to provide attentive, reliable care for pets without the disruption of a traditional 9–5 job. Pet sitting fits naturally into our daily rhythm—whether it’s walking a dog, feeding and checking in on animals, or offering companionship and playtime, we’re available and present. My kids also enjoy helping (with supervision), adding extra love and attention to the care we provide. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and loved. Whether they’re staying for a day or a week, I make sure they have plenty of playtime, exercise, and snuggles—along with any specific care or routines they’re used to. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: Hi my name is TaylorNicole! I am a senior in college and hoping to save up money to make sure that once I leave school I have good foundation to start with. I have over 20+ years of animal caring experience. Within the last 10-15 years I have become extremely knowledgeable and skilled when it comes to dogs and cats. With ages ranging from a day old new born to a senior cat/dog, I know how to handle almost any situation. I have knowledge and skills in administrating IV fluids/medications, shots of any kind, or medications of any kinds. I’ve taken care of and fully recovered pets with PARVOVIRUS, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes. I can promise you that your baby would be in the best hands possible. I’m currently on winter break from college in the area and I have more free time than I know what to do with. Pet care would be my main priority and focus. I would be available whenever I have 4 cats myself and I care for them like they are my legitimate children. They are spoiled rotten and yours would be too. Respecting the fact the the home is the pet’s territory, making it so it was a gradual easy process of me watching the animal/s would be my main focus.
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: Thanks for stopping by! My name is Kylar and I’ve been around dogs and cats since I could walk, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. For the past three years, I’ve been the proud pet parent of my dog Jessie, who reminds me every day how special our furry companions are. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every animal I meet. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them like family and keep you updated every step of the way. Also, i’m always open to a meet and greet before you leave your dog under my care. As pet parents. It’s important that you feel comfortable and safe knowing that your dog is in the best possible care! I’m usually available Monday through Friday after 5 pm and a bit more flexible with the weekends. I’m a big fan of getting extra outdoor time and happy to take your furry friends on extra long walks. Me and my dog Jessie walk atleast 3 miles everyday! My dog Jessie eats twice a day and I’m extra careful with his food and bowl because his stomach can be sensitive. He only eats out of a freshly washed bowl, has plenty of playtime daily, and always gets cuddle time whenever I can squeeze it in!
“Ashland is amazing!, Very sweet & kind and our Yorkie missed her when she left. ( He sat at the door after she left and waited for her to come back) Have already re-booked.”

“Alexis is fantastic. We have booked with her before to watch our pup and we always feel at ease. She respects and follows rules and instructions for our puppy down to the detail. Our puppy had a great day with her and was in good hands! Will be booking again!”


About: Hi my name is Colleen and I have been working with and training dogs since I was 10 years old starting out with South East Border Collie Rescue, then I moved onto training the rescues to make them more suitable to find their forever homes easier. I love dogs of any age and type. I offer full service from hyper active dogs that require lots of play time to the senior dogs that require a slower pace. I can do post surgery dogs, I have no problem with giving pills or ointments ect or most other medical needs. I have been around every type of dog from those that are dog agressive to fear biting and I can deal with it all. I am a college student. Your pets will have hours of playtime a day as well as all the cuddles and attention they could possibly want. My house is located on a lovely 1/4 acre lot where the dogs can run all the way around and play. I have every type of toy that a dog could possibly want to play with. The dogs will be inside out of the weather with a warm and cozy fireplace. If it is raining they will be towel dried and the mud will be wiped off. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at anytime.
“Maria was absolutely incredible with our two dogs, Finn and Chai! She went above and beyond—giving them tons of love, exercise, attention, and even handling medications with care. We came home to two very happy pups and a tidy space. She kept us updated the whole time and truly treated them like her own. We can’t recommend her enough and are so grateful to have found someone we trust completely!”

“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!!!!”

“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!”

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 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 2,241 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.
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.
