âKylie is phenomenal! My pup is so well cared for by her. Iâm always excited to see the action photos from their walks! This time, we booked a few days of house sitting. It was clear she provided loving care when the next morning, after the stay, my pup went to the guest bedroom to look for her. My guy missed her. Always a good sign. Thanks Kylie!!! đđžâ

âAtiyana did a wonderful job taking care of our dig Leila. Leila was happy to meet her and took to her from day one. Thankful that she was able to care for her and feed our fish!â
âMorgan was great with my 2 pups! He followed my instructions and went above and beyond to ensure my girls were well taken care of. I received daily updates and photos, which was great while I was out of the country. He brought in all my packages, bins and ensured I came home to a clean house. Highly recommend!â

âThis was our first Rover experience so we didnât know what to expect. Anna Marie was very responsive. She was very easy to communicate with. Anna Marie stayed in our home with our 2 dogs while we were gone for a week. Our dogs were well cared for. She sent daily updates and pictures which made us feel more comfortable that the pups were in good hands. We would definitely book with her again.â

âHighly recommend! They were fantastic with my dogs and incredibly punctual. I really appreciated the consistent updates and photos they sent, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away.â

âGrace did a wonderful job staying with our dog and housesitting for a weekend. She was a great communicator, sent pictures and updates. Wouldnât have even know she was in the house. We will for sure use her again and love having someone close by we can trust with our home and pup.â


âJaslyn is so sweet and she took care of my 2 dogs very well. Iâm very careful of who I let into my home and I can tell you Jaslyn is very trustworthy. My dogs were fed, cleaned, and received a lot of love. I will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Jaslyn!â

âAleyah is very professional and caring. She cares for our pups well and is attentive to their needs. We will continue to rebook Aleyah for dog walking and dog sitting services.â

âYocelyn took excellent care of my pets for a long weekend. She left the house tidy and it was so nice coming home to happy dogs and a clean home. She was communicative and sent plenty of photos. I would recommend her for your petsitting needs!â

âAiyana was a fantastic sitter for our dog, Tuna! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away for a long weekend. She was also extremely accommodating when we had a few different travel issues pop up. I felt so comfortable the entire weekend knowing our dog was in good hands. Our dog has seperation anxiety, and Aiyana made sure she was comfortable the entire time, and even worked with her on her separation training. Iâll definitely be rebooking in the future :)â

âLindsey was incredible, and our older gentleman truly enjoyed hanging out with her. In fact, he was quite content versus insane when we got home from the beach. Thank you, Lindsey!â


About: Iâve taken care of dogs of many kinds all my life. I currently have my own 2 year old labrador mix who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old. I absolutely adore pets and know how important they are to owners and all pet parents. I am currently home for the summer and am studying for my license exam to become a licensed mental health professional. I am very flexible and open in terms of availability. I have a fenced backyard and my own socialized and friendly dog of my own. Also have a basement, if privacy concerns arise. Thank you.
About: I have always been around animals whether they were my own or someone elseâs. I have also shadowed at vet clinics and done kenneling briefly at a clinic. I love spending time with pets and taking care of them. I am a college student who is currently studying biology, I then plan to go to vet school. So over the summer and holiday breaks I have plenty of time to care for pets. If they are on a feeding schedule I follow that schedule. Iâm also very active myself and love being out side. If itâs nice out Iâll take your animal out to play and walk.
About: With years of hands on pet care experience, I provide loving, reliable, and personalized care for your furry family members. From puppies to senior pets, I've cared for animals of all ages and temperaments. Whether it's daily walks, overnight stays, or extra TLC for anxious pets, I treat every animal like my own with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. Your pet's comfort and safety are always my top priority. As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it's taking breaks for walks, playtime, or just offering comfort and companionship, I enjoy making animals a part of my daily routine. Having pets around brightens my day and I love being able to provide consistent, loving care without distractions or schedule conflicts. Creating a safe, calm, and pet friendly environment is my top priority. My home is clean, secure, and free of hazards, with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and feel comfortable. I provide constant supervision, especially during introductions and transitions and follow each pet's routine closely including feeding, medication and special needs. I treat every animal like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while in my care.
âHieu & Anna are seriously the best. The care and effort they put into making sure everything is exactly how we asked has gone way beyond our expectations. They send multiple updates throughout the day, tons of photos, and always make sure Rocco is living his best life. Their end-of-day recaps are unique, detailed, funny, and honestly one of our favorite parts. They also take care of our home like itâs their own, which gives us so much peace of mind while away. At this point, weâre pretty sure Rocco might love them more than us.â

âDeborah took such great care of my babies. She sent an update and photos every morning and throughout each day. She was always available if I needed to reach her, and I know that my dog and my car were in the best possible hands. I am so glad that we found her!!â

âXavier was fantastic. He communicated well, confirming details, asking questions and giving updates throughout his stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was well cared for. Would hire again in a heartbeat.â


âOdette kept our pups safe and happy during a heatwave and was so respectful of our house while we were away. She was easy to reach throughout the week. She went above and beyond to take care of the pups and house.â

âAnh took terrific care of our pups. She was responsive, sending daily updates and getting in touch with any questions she had about dog care. I absolutely recommend her for puppy care and will request her for future needs.â

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pomfret
Trinity was a great sitter for my Nala. Her communication was awesome and she sent pictures and updates. Nala was on medication so I was relieved to know that Trinity had no problems issuing her medication. I will be using Trinity again for my fur baby and sheâs excited to spend time with Trinity again. I have also told my friend who has a dog about her as well. Nala and I thank you Trinity for an awesome experience!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pomfret
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pomfret on Rover is $39.96 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 8,499 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pomfret. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Pomfret walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Pomfret 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Pomfret 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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.
