“Ashley is always so courteous and patient with me and my time. She took great care of Tokyo and she’s very responsive to what I need. I came home and my dog looked like he was well taken care of while I was away. Thank you Ashley. I will be booking more experiences with her. 🥰”
“Jessica was available and flexible on short notice and really came through. My dog is finicky and doesn’t like most people, but LOVED Jessica. I felt completely comfortable leaving my little buddy with her!”
“Dan was able to help on very short notice. My dog is older and there was not a lot required but she liked Dan and was affection with them which is not always the case.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Tiffany! She did an amazing job taking care of our pups while we were away — they were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved all the attention and care she gave them. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. The house was spotless when we got back, and everything was exactly as we left it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive with pets!”
“Ace was wonderful! They were able to come for a meet and greet and I thought their energy was very calm and easy going. During the house stay, they provided me with plenty of pictures and updates for my boys. I thought my dogs got plenty of attention and play time. They even brought in a package that was delivered and I noticed they washed some dishes we forgot to clean before leaving without being asked. They did a great job and I will definitely be using Ace again in the future.”
About: I've loved dogs all my life from my first, as a child, to my current, Niko. Niko and I have been together for 11 years. He is the second dog to my first, Chance. Chance was with me for 15.5 beautiful years before he passed in 2023. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs and I'm so ready to love on your babies. I've been encouraged for years to do something like this and now is the time to do it. I hope I get to meet your little family. I'm currently changing direction in my career. I've worked in retail for over 20 years and I am no longer interested in being in a store setting. While I transition, I would love to dive into this passion of mine. I will have open availability while in this transition. I follow the directions of the pet owner if I'm in their home and if no specific direction is given, I treat the pet as my own. I have cared for pets in my home as well and if no specific direction is given, I follow the routine of my own pet.
“Our dogs loved J, and we’ll happily use him again to watch the pups. He sent pics and updates throughout which was much appreciated, and we could tell the dogs were happy and well taken care of. He was even willing to do a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure one of the pups was comfortable with him. Highly recommend J!”
About: I am a wildlife biologist for the Georgia DNR working for the Urban Wildlife Program. I have years of experience dog-sitting, primarily for large- and medium-sized dogs in the Chicago area. My work schedule is very flexible, allowing me to take my time to care for your critters! A large part of my job is responding to wildlife emergencies using years of experience and best-judgment decision making, which makes for a great pet-sitter. I am a wildlife biologist that works from home in Decatur. My workload is quite low so it is easy to fit pet care into my schedule throughout the week. My flexible schedule affords me ample time to provide proper attention to animals. I have a calm demeanor with strong attention to detail when it comes to care instruction. My experience as a wildlife biologist has trained me how to monitor animals for emergencies and how to be calm in the face of the unknown or unexpected. I am used to following strict research protocol, so following along for the care of your animal will be a breeze.
“Ashley was such a help when we had to change our Labor Day plans at the last minute! Our pups loved snuggling with her and she even managed medications and walking the two of them.”
About: I’ve had dogs and taken care of them since I was very young. I love all animals. And I can not wait to meet some new furry friends. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to care for your animals. I’m available to take the fur babies on walks whenever you need. I have a very friendly dog that is completely house trained. I can crate your animal, walk them, pay with them. Anything you need for them to be comfortable I can do.
“Debra was an absolute delight to have staying at our home during our trip. By the end of her stay, our cat who is normally timid towards strangers became completely comfortable with her. Outside of caring for our pet, Debra went above and beyond - pulling weeds, feeding outdoor critters, and doing laundry and dishes. We came back to a home just as clean as we left it! We highly recommend Debra to anyone looking for a professional and conscientious pet sitter!”
“Brittany did an amazing job keeping our two dogs company while we were away! Our Greyhound and our cranky senior Chihuahua seemed very happy with her, so we are very grateful. She was able to administer complicated medication regimens for both of them and even earned the Chihuahua’s affection by day two. Everyone was safe and sound and got plenty of snuggles! Thank you, Brittany!”
“This is the 3rd or 4th time Tiana has watched my boys and she is absolutely amazing! So responsive and keeps me updated at all times. Truly the best sitter I’ve found on Rover!! 10/10 would recommend”
“Brittany was great. She saved us for a last minute reservation. She was very communicative and thoughtful sharing updates proactively and respectful of our space as well as very sweetly doing things like bringing in our mail when we didn't ask her too. Our dog is older and it was so great to have someone so caring take care of him.”
“Another great experience with Sydney! They watched and house sat for an entire week. I got regular photos and updates. Your animals will be in great hands with Sydney - Will definitely be using them again!”
“Dan was extremely affectionate with our Ruth and very conscientious about her food & exercise schedule. She was very comfortable with Dan and so were we! Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!”
“I was nervous leaving Remi during her recovery, but she made me feel so comfortable and kept me updated. She was patient, caring, and attentive to Remi’s needs. I truly appreciated how reliable she was especially that it was a bit last minute. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pointe Bleue
Our animals were so well taken care of and they were happy when we got home. She spent the night here but there was no trace of her being here at all. She has been very flexible with the dates because of a death in our family. I will definitely use her again. Thank you Ashley!!
Alayna was amazing. She was super attentive with my dog, who’s older, blind, and requires multiple medications. She was extremely communicative, and sent tons of photos. I didn’t have to worry my whole trip, and appreciated her positive energy. I will definitely be rebooking!
Ace was absolutely amazing with our cats! We were pretty anxious about leaving them—especially since we have an older cat and a newer, younger one we weren’t sure would do well together—but she put our minds completely at ease. She took such great care of them and kept us updated with pictures while we were away, which meant so much to us. It was such a relief to come home and see that both cats were happy and doing well (and even getting along!). You can really tell she cares, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave them. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter!
Leilani was fantastic! We had to book Leilani last minute due to a sitter cancellation and everything about this last minute booking went extremely smooth. She responded to the booking request immediately and made it a point to meet our pup the very next day. She not only took great care of our pup, but she stuck to his schedule and his reactive training…all while providing us with photo/video updates. When we got home, we knew that Reese was very well taken care of and was extremely happy with his weekend with Leilani! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pointe Bleue
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pointe Bleue on Rover is $25 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 4,307 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pointe Bleue. 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 Pointe Bleue 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 Pointe Bleue 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 Pointe Bleue 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.
