“Natalie was great with our pup Finn. He ended up having a double ear infection and Natalie had no problem with administering his ear drops. She was super responsive and sent lots of pictures. Highly recommend Natalie and we have already booked her again!”
“Caitlin was amazing! She is the best sitter I got on Rover! She stayed hours making company to my cat Leia and I have no words to thank her for being so loving with her.”
“Michael is a great babysitter. He makes sure he is super attentive with them and communicative with the parents. He let Hercules sleep in the bed with him. That was so nice. Thanks michael”
“Josh was excellent! He cared for our two dogs for two weeks while we were out of town. He communicated well with us and was very reassuring during a power outage that added some layers of difficulty. He delivered in all areas. Our dogs were very happy and we will use him again!”
“This is my second time booking Autumn to stay in my home to take care of my dog and cat. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! My pets got plenty of love and hugs. Autumn was very responsive and made me feel as ease being away from home.”
“Sydney was great with Klaus. She was very good with communication and handled tracking down the dreaded low battery smoke detector. We would definitely use her again.”
“Teneisha is wonderful! She is very patient and caring. My boy suffers separation anxiety and is very hesitant with new people, but Teneisha was there making sure he had his food and water and was well cared for. She is a very intelligent and responsible woman, who made me feel very comfortable leaving for a couple of days and not having my own anxiety about Reuben's well being. I highly recommend Teneisha!”
“Ashlyn is trustworthy, responsible, and caring, with excellent communication skills. We had a trip planned well in advance, and a month before our departure, we rescued a shelter dog. We weren’t sure how our high-energy, 62-pound pup would adjust to a new routine, but Ashlyn handled him like a true professional. She kept us updated every step of the way and made sure he was showered with love. We won’t trust anyone else with our dog—Ashlyn is simply the best!”
“Lindsay is awesome!! This is the second time I have used her for housesitting. She sent pictures and videos of my pup every day, I would definitely recommend using her. We came home to a spotless house after being gone for a week. I really appreciate everything she’s has done.”
“Kayleigh was so great with my dogs and she went above and beyond to care for my senior dog. Communication was top notch and she kept me updated about everything. She’s great and we can’t wait to see her again.”
About: I'm a Carnegie Mellon alumni and Floridian transplant who decided to stay and settle in the Burgh. I've volunteered with animals since I was 14, and up until a year ago, I was running my own rescue. I began pet sitting to help pay vet bills for the strays I took in. I have specialized largely in neonatal and senior care, including administering medicine, facilitating special diets, and offering personalized enrichment (including socialization for ferals). I also fed, rehabilitated, vaccinated, and spayed street dogs while living in Mexico. I work from home, and I plan my schedule around the animals in my life. I'm usually able to adapt my weekly responsibilities around whatever is needed for each household. While in a client's home, I'm careful to follow all provided instructions closely and always ask for clarification if I'm unsure. Also, I'm happy to assist with small home tasks like bringing in the mail or watering your plants as needed.
“Kaitlin did a one-night housesitting job and was everything we could have asked for, from meet and greet through the engagement. She provided prompt communications and was responsive the whole way through. We came home to a clean house and a happy, tired dog. We will be using Kaitlin again soon!”
“Traisaun stayed over a weekend with our 2 elderly dogs and cat. He sent pictures each day to keep us updated on their wellbeing and all were very happy when we returned. He is also very prompt with timing and kept our home tidy. We’ll be calling Traisaun the next time we need a sitter!”
About: I have four years of hands on experience as a kennel technician, caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I specialize in maintaining clean, safe environments, providing enrichment, and offering plenty of love and attention. I’m confident handling puppies, senior pets, and administering basic medications, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine as I currently work as a Lead Kennel Technician. I dedicate mornings and evenings to feeding, walking, and engaging with pets, and I am available for pet sitting and drop-in visits during my off days /hours. I enjoy spending quality time with animals every day. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, welcoming environment and follow any specific instructions provided by pet parents. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain in familiar surroundings and maintain their routines. If pets are in my care, I provide secure spaces, enrichment activities, and close supervision to make sure they are happy and safe.
“Lyla went above and beyond for our two dogs (mini poodle and pitbull mix) while we were away for a long weekend. She came to meet them a few days before we left and took them on a walk so they could acclimate to her. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, took them on two walks per day, did tricks with them, and kept them safe and entertained the whole weekend. We'll absolutely be booking with her again!!”
“Tricia’s kindness and willingness to chat and send photos of my furkids was so appreciated! She went above and beyond and scooped Kriti’s litter box before she left without me asking. She followed my instructions and the furkids looked happy when I got home. Thanks Tricia!”
“This was our first time entrusting Patrick with our house and pups. We were quite confident in our decision when, during the meet and greet, Patrick inquired about our care routines in detail, which we hadn’t been asked before. Throughout our trip, Patrick kept us informed about our pups’ well-being by sending us pictures of their adventures. We appreciated receiving these updates as they allowed us to stay connected while we were away. We highly recommend Patrick for future dog-sitting needs and believe he would be a great fit for your requirements as well.”

Jessica took care of our two Goldens for 8 days - and she did an amazing job! We left very detailed instructions for our pups, and she followed them to the tee. We did in-home sitting and she took fantastic care of our home as well. Jessica provided daily updates and tons of pictures and videos. Overall, she went above and beyond and we will be booking again in a heartbeat (and so would our pups!).
Hello, Olivia was absolutely amazing and obviously made my trip more enjoyable simply knowing the cats were taken care of. She sent me pics of them, which was cool, and they also seemed to enjoy a different person being there. So thank you for the help and also doing a great job!!
Plachette gave all the right attention to our two cats,two dogs and 5 fish tanks- she was responsive and engaging throughout our week long trip. Her maturity and experince put us as ease, and her empathy and compassion with our fur-family was obvious from the moment she met them. We will definitely be repeat customers.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pitcairn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pitcairn on Rover is $28.36 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,444 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pitcairn. 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 Pitcairn 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 Pitcairn 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 Pitcairn 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.
