Christina is such a sweet and caring person whom I trusted completely with Harley. She took care of him for 3 separate days. She was prompt and followed my instructions and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. She was available for all the days I needed her for. She was courteous and kept everything in my home neat. She is such a pleasure to work with, and I know Harley was so happy to see her. I definitely plan on hiring Christina again when I need someone to take care of Harley. Thank you!

About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs and have developed a deep love and understanding of animals. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I love taking dogs on walks, helping them stay active, happy, and comfortable. Spending time with animals brings me peace, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while they are with me. In addition to caring for pets, I am passionate about photography and enjoy capturing special moments and memories. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care for every dog I meet. I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I always make sure pets have a consistent routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean and calm environment and always supervise pets while they are in my care. Because I have two resident dogs, I carefully assess each pet’s needs and temperament to ensure a safe experience for everyone. I follow owners’ instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special requirements to help pets feel comfortable and secure.

About: As a retired professional, I bring reliability, patience, and a calm presence to every walk. I’ve been a dog owner of two large breeds and one small breed. I have hands-on experience with doodle breeds and their unique personalities. I understand the importance of safety and health. I’ve cared for dogs with medical needs, so I’m comfortable with monitoring, medications, and giving extra attention when needed. Whether your dog loves a brisk walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra cuddles along the way, I treat every pup like family because that’s what they are. As a recently retired police officer, I currently work part-time so my hours are flexible and will have plenty of time for your fur babies. I will treat your home as if it were my own. I will safely walk your dog on leash, and can easily crate your dog, if need be.

About: With over 15 years of experience as a responsible pet owner and lifelong animal lover, I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, weights, and breeds. Although limited I do have experience caring for cats. (My girlfriend has cats) Alongside this, I bring 25 years of professional project management experience, which means I’m organized, reliable, and attentive to details. I truly enjoy caring for animals and would genuinely look forward to giving your pets the attention, care, and respect they deserve. I work from home M-F. My weekend availability is spotty as I work in Lambertville NJ some Saturdays and Sundays (seasonal) so just ask and I will do my best to accommodate. I will care for your pets in your home exactly how you do. I appreciate precise details of your pet’s habits, things that bring them happiness and expectations of anyone caring for them.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I've owned both large and medium-sized dogs over the years, so I'm very comfortable handling and walking big pups with confidence. Whether your dog loves a long adventure, a leisurely sniff-filled stroll, or just wants some extra love and attention, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I recently worked as an adoption and foster counselor at an animal shelter in St. Louis, where I had the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable handling dogs who are dog-reactive, dog-aggressive, leash biters, or shy and fearful, and I know that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and understanding. My own two dogs are my whole world, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else's care. I'll treat your pup like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, and lots of tail wags along the way! I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether they love extra walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I'm happy to help with everything they need, including walks, feeding, fresh water, brushing, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and, of course, lots of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your furry family member!

About: I had the pleasure of owning a Golden Retriever for 13.5 years. During that time I trained her, socialized her with other dogs, and gave her a loving home. I learned the different needs and characteristics of the breed and how to handle larger dogs. I'm also knowledgeable on common AKC guidelines. I work remotely Monday through Friday, which gives me flexibility during the week to care for your pets. On weekends, I sometimes have events for my small business and love spending time with family. Please feel free to message me your preferred times — I’m happy to work something out that fits both of our schedules! I strive to create a comfortable environment to accommodate your pets needs as much as possible. I'm adaptive, flexible, and willing to work in a variety of different situations.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I currently work at a dog daycare, where I regularly handle dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m experienced with feeding routines, playtime, and closely monitoring behavior to keep every dog safe and comfortable. I’ve also administered medications and given insulin shots to dogs, so I’m confident caring for pets with special needs. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for currently work part-time at a dog daycare, so caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily routine. I work mornings on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday, which leaves me available in the afternoons and evenings on those days. I’m also available most weekends, and I’m working toward having an even more flexible schedule soon. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and consistency I prioritize a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. While I can offer care in my home when needed, I typically prefer caring for pets in their own home where they feel most relaxed and secure. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments through my work at a dog daycare, and I always supervise interactions closely and follow each dog’s routine. I’m also comfortable with crating if needed and have experience administering medications, including injections

FAQs for House Sitting - Pine Lake Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Pine Lake Park on Rover is $26.75 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 1,596 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pine Lake Park. 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 Pine Lake Park 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 Pine Lake Park 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 Pine Lake Park 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 Pine Lake Park. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
