Ray did a phenomenal job taking care of my dog!!! He is great at giving lengthy walks that my high energy dog needed and took great care of the house. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a house sitter or just someone to take care of their dog.

Megan was fabulous and goes the extra mile. She dog sat in our home and was very respectful, great communication, trustworthy and very clean. She not only cared for our doggie but the plants and pool. She was in communication with us daily with updates and our dog seemed very comfortable with her. We will definitely be using her again.

Weston did a phenomenal job caring for our three pups while we were out of town. He sent multiple updates and photos every day. He went above and beyond in his care, even playing fetch and other games with our youngest dog to get some of her energy out. He was reliable and quick to respond from the start of the booking process (he also helped us out on short notice which was amazing!). We are so thankful for his care and cannot recommend him enough. Would give 10 out of 5 stars if we could. Thank you!!

Anthony was fantastic. I was afraid my elderly dog would be too difficult for a stranger to look after him, but Anthony allayed my fears and told me Charlie did well for him.

Adrienna was an awesome house sitter for my dog, cat, geckos, and even my potted plants :). She messaged me concerns about my pets and house. I felt like my pets were safe with her. She and my dog were definitely fast friends too.

About: I’ve taken care of friends dogs, family members dogs, and even volunteered at an animal shelter and was taking care of different animals there. I am currently employed at equine medical where I take care of horses. I myself have 2 cats and a dog that I love so much. I am currently employed and a student at Stephens College. I will not be available till after 5. Weekends are available though! I would prioritize your pets like i do mine. I take my dog on multiple walks a day and he would love another friend to walk with him, or even play with him at my house or your house/ apartment.

About: I have had a dog or cat (or multiple!) in my home since I was a small child. I love to walk and experience nature through a dogs eyes, as well as rest and love on cats in the comfort of the indoors. My schedule is quite variable at the moment, which leaves me free for last minute visits with your fluffy friends! I am almost always free in the evenings if your pet needs someone to serve their dinner 🍽️ I aim to give your lovely four legged friend(s) the most compassionate care possible. Loving on your pets gives me great joy and makes my day!

We were worried going into this as our dog Yogi has immense anxiety about new people, but as soon as they met, they instantly connected. She was great about keeping us updated with photos, videos, and messages. We are so glad we were able to have her there for our dogs, we can’t recommend her enough!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life growing up. I’ve trained my dog up to show dog standard as a hobby. I have house sat for many of our close friend’s families. I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your for babies. I am free for housesitting every day of the week. And I am available to attend to you pets need around the clock. I have two dogs and two cats of my own and they are my world. We often enjoy long hikes and exploring new toys and places together. Mine and your pets safety and well being are my number one priority.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs through my professional work in veterinary care. I’ve cared for and handled dogs with a wide range of personalities, sizes, ages, and needs, including providing daily care, exercise, and following individualized routines. I’m especially comfortable with dogs who need extra attention, patience, or close monitoring. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and quick to notice changes in a pet’s behavior or wellbeing. Most importantly, I treat every dog with patience, compassion, and the same level of care I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 7 AM–4 PM, but I’m available before and after work, as well as during my lunch break, for pet visits and care. I’m available from 5–7 AM, 11 AM–1 PM, and 4–8 PM during the week. My weekends are completely open, so I have plenty of flexibility for longer visits, walks, drop-ins, and extended stays. I also have two cats of my own, so caring for animals is already an important part of my everyday life! I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow their feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure their pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and personalities and understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences. My professional animal-care experience has also taught me to be very attentive to changes in behavior or wellbeing. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

We were originally going to board our dogs during our destination wedding, but I got nervous last minute. Mackenzie saved the day for us. Our dogs loved her and they got to stay home with their routines instead of being anxious somewhere new. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend 💓

About: Being raised in a household that always had at least one four-legged friend, I know the value that animals add to a home! I also know the importance of finding trusted individuals (me!!) to take care of those loved ones, during times away. Having relied on friends & family to care for my pets over the years, I want to help others in a similar way. I work full time, but have a flexible job that allows me the privilege to step away when needed & check on a pup or two! Depending on location, I can make pre-work, lunch time, or post-work visits work. As well as overnights! Your pet’s safety and daily routine are my top priorities! I’m super diligent about double-checking doors, gates, and leashes, and keeping anything dangerous out of reach. I love sending regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your four-legged friend is happy, safe, and living their best life while you’re away.

Megan is a natural with animals! Our dogs are a bit older and set in their ways and she navigated that with ease. She sent us lots of photos and updates and kept an eye on our one dog who had had surgery within the past three weeks. Thank you, Megan- we really appreciated being able to be out of the country and knowing our dogs were taken care of

Samantha was very professional, kind, trustworthy and concerned about the care and safety of our dogs. We have 2 Chihuahua/Terrier mix rescue dogs that have anxiety and trust issues. She was very sensitive to their needs and was very patient in giving them the time and space they needed. Thank you Samanatha and we would highly recommend her taking care of your baby.

Josselyn is very reliable. She did not hesitate to communicate as needed. Sent pics of my fur babies to show they were ok. Looks like they had a great time with her. She also went above and beyond to help on the day we got back and letting the dogs out in the afternoon since we were running late. Overall, we had a great experience with her.

Katie was a phenomenal care giver for our two small dogs. This was the first time we left them home with care instead of boarding. Katie was attentive, sent pics and updates, played games with them, and took them on walks. We were able to really enjoy our trip, and the kids felt good knowing that they could ask for a picture or an update, and we would get one! Thank you, Katie, for your excellent care!

Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with for a recent family vacation we took. We needed a home stay for our Bulldog and not only that, he was a lt the tail-end of recovering from a major surgery. Ashley went above and beyond with our Bulldog, the house was spotless when we returned. Ashley is also a wonderful communicator and responsive to all our needs. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her to all others. Thank you, Ashley!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pierpont

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Pierpont on Rover is $33.3 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 220 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pierpont. 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 Pierpont 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 Pierpont 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 Pierpont 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 Pierpont. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 87% 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.
