“Emily has watched our two dogs on several occasions now and they love her! Emily is so reliable and so nice, she sends us pics of the dogs while we’re gone and gives us little updates. Our dogs are so much more relaxed and calm when we get home from trips thanks to Emily dropping in often and hanging out with them. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“did an amazing job with our cats! my husband and i are very protective of our cats and not once did we worry about them potentially not being ok. they send lots of pics everyday and genuinely care about your animals! they are very good at responding to texts quickly and will provide whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with them being with your pet :). 10/10 would use again.”
“Cindy was amazing. She stayed at our home for several days caring for our 15 year old poodle Scarlett. She gave her attention, sent us updates and we never had to worry about Scarlett. The mail was inside, the plants were watered and the dog was happy. Thank you Cindy. You’re the best!!❣️”
About: I was raised on a farm in the countryside. We had cats and dogs among other animals. Many of these I claimed as pets. I've owned several dogs in my lifetime and into their older years and currently have two cats which they think they're human. These little animals are part of our families. This makes them of great importance and priority. Their care should be taken just as seriously as each other. Listening to their needs and watching their habits they communicate. I take great care listening to the sounds and movement of a pet to discern what they are trying to communicate that they need. Flexibility is important when it comes to pet sitting. My children are almost adults now so I have more time to care for another family's pets. I do not have the room for a pet in my home but I have lots of room in my heart to take care of your pet in yours.
“Elizabeth did a fantastic job at watching and caring for both our dogs. She definitely went above and beyond in all areas. If we're ever back in the area again, we will definitely be looking her up for her pet sitting services. Thank you E!”
About: Growing up in Rural America afforded me the opportunity to begin caring for and developing a passion for animals at an early age that has carried into adulthood. I intentionally avoid “overbooking” ensuring your pet receives all of the love and care necessary in your absence. Individualized care and attention are the highest priorities. Separation anxiety is real among dogs. I’m here to ensure you fur babies receive all of the love and attention required while you’re away. Whether it’s vacation or work related, I’ve got you covered!
“Fabricia did such a great job taking care of Charlie and Chloe. They fell in love with her and cried when she left. She even did extras and help take care of my home while I was away. She clearly has a giant heart, and a great love for animals.”
“Jennifer was incredibly caring, thoughtful and communicative while watching my pup. She didn't just walk her and feed her. She tried to bond with her which is incredible.”
“Charlie has always helped when I requested it. She is very responsive, and I come home to happy, healthy pets. I’m glad I found her - her caring for my animals gives me peace of mind while traveling!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Elisabeth took such great care of our dog, Murphy, while we were away. She kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, which helped us relax and really enjoy our trip. Murphy looked so happy and comfortable the whole time! We came home to a calm, content pup and a tidy house. We’d absolutely trust her to watch him again!! Highly recommend!”
“Jenna was amazing! We are going to use her again. 100% definitely going to use her again. She was responsive and sent us a ton of pictures. Asked questions and sent feedback on our pups. She was amazing.”
About: Hello! I’m Rheya and I seriously, love pets. With owning over 5+ pets in my life, I have learned to grow with, and not against animals and knowing their behavior and individual needs. As the saying goes, “happy dog happy life” has never been truer especially when the pressure is on with life. I have exposer to training dogs, and maintaining an instilled disciplinary environment for my pets over the years. I would LOVE to provide your pets a time of fun to give you, your time of sun! *I OFFER OFF APP OPERATIONS AS PER REQUEST* ^i have received several reoccurring clients off app (also reduces the crazy rover fees!) I am currently working part-time as well as being a part-time student in college. I am available weekends primarily, either overtime or whatever your specific need is, as well as weekdays when available. Following the schedule in place from the owner, I will adhere and implement said schedule, from potty walks to backyard zoomiez! We do the same here at my household (Leo is crazy for both).
About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities and understand the importance of keeping them happy, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply giving them extra attention, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available on weekends and can often accommodate weekday visits as well. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to work with your pet care needs! I provide pet sitting in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I know pets feel their best when they’re surrounded by the sights, smells, and routines they know, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away.
About: I provide loving pet care with daily walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. Reliable, attentive, and passionate about animals’ happiness and safety. Pets are family. Always happy! I do work part time. Pet care fits easily into my day. I love starting mornings with walks, checking in on pets throughout the day, and making sure they’re happy, fed, and loved. I care for pets by keeping spaces clean, safe, and cozy. I follow routines, give plenty of attention, watch for health issues, and respect each pet’s unique needs.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities — from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime, to senior pets who deserve extra patience and gentle care. I make it a priority to get to know each animal’s unique routine and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart I treat every pet as if they were my own family. Beyond basic walks and feeding, I focus on keeping pets happy, stimulated, and calm — whether that’s through long walks, games of fetch, or simply giving them the quiet affection they crave. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always communicative, so you’ll have peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for like a priority. I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time to give attention to the animals!! I can do feedings and walks morning and night no issues there. I have a fenced in yard, very accessible for letting animals out to go potty and my household only consists of me and my partner so there won’t be many people coming in and out of the home so there’s more consistency for the animals.
About: It's great to have a dog around!! From my first dog Cookie to boarding my Uncle's dog Fearless..well you just fall in love. Dogs force me to be the outdoor person I was meant to be..how can I say no to a walk?? I am super disciplined about feeding, watering, and any special needs. Can't wait to meet your furry friend... I am around most days and can be flexible depending on owners needs. I don''t require a lot of notice for walks, sitting, and or boarding. My home is dog ready..I have a fenced yard and a dog park close to me. Flexible accomodations..can have dogs run free in home..can crate if necessary. Fenced yard complete with turf grass. I live on a dead end street in a semi private neighborhood.
About: I feel like that animals are just drawn to me! I feel like that I am very gentle around all animals and able to give them the attention they need. I do work nearby and could even pop in after work on week nights! But I’m mostly available all day on Tuesday, Friday and Saturdays! I am in an apartment and there is a large dog park across from where I live and there is a large complex to walk around and pond.
“Kerry was great, I felt comfortable with her in my home and taking care of my MOST precious pups! She sent me many pictures throughout the day & she gave them so much attention! I go out of town frequently and find it hard to find a great at home pet sitter. She was even so sweet to check my mail for me. I will definitely use her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Point Washington
Literally the best dog sitter in the world. It’s really hard to truly enjoy our vacations because we miss our dogs so much. Maria made sure we were sent pictures, videos, texts about how they are doing. She was truly amazing and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. 10/10
Janessa was absolutely amazing! We needed someone to stay at our house with our boys and she was willing to come in to care for them. She sent us daily pictures without us requesting them while not inundating us with constant messages. It was clear she cared for and loved on our boys. We were at peace knowing Janessa was with them. She is kind, caring and intelligent....all amazing qualities in a caregiver!

The average cost of House Sitting in Point Washington is $94 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $107 per night.

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 Point Washington 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 Point Washington 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 Point Washington 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
