“Simply, Adeline was a perfect pet sitter in pur home. Our little dog is 16 years old and doesn't hear. He also was highly traumatized before we adopted him, so new people make him very agitated. deline was amazing with him. She was kind enough to agree to a pre vacation meetup before our holiday. She listened to our concerns and clearly treated him well. By the time we came home a week later, she was his bestie. Adeline sent us photos periodically with updates and seemed to really care about them, offering to sit for us again in the future. We're so grateful to Adeline for her patience and care; she made it possible for me to relax on vacation knowing they were in good hands. Thank you Adeline!”
“Lindsey was great! He watched my dogs at my house for 5 days and he did an excellent job communicating with us daily, sending pics and updates on the pups. House was clean when we returned. He had good training tips as well. He even covered up our outdoor furniture for us when it started raining, which was much appreciated. I would rebook, dogs seemed very happy with him.”
“Leaving a fearful, reactive Blue Heeler is incredibly stressful- Sydney handled everything flawlessly while house-sitting; during my absence, there happened to be tree trimming which required parking spots to be vacated, chimney inspections, and exterior repairs during hot weather (of course it just HAD to occur during the ONE period I wouldn't be home). She handled everything flawlessly including understanding my dog's triggers, respecting their boundaries during nervous moments, and took the time to build trust safely. Sydney sent fantastic updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone who truly "gets" herding breeds and reactivity while being patient and gentle. I am so grateful and will absolutely be booking again!”
“Merry was punctual, and a good communicator. She was very friendly and clearly cared about my animals well being, and safety. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Amir has watched my pack three times now, and he does daily drop-ins when I am at work. He is awesome! Super attentive and very communicative. He goes above and beyond consistently; Like helping me battle the Little Black Ants that had invaded my kitchen. Seriously, he's the best. And I trust him implicitly. So do my three beasts!”
“Tayler is a gem! She took great care of both our kitty and our house! Returned home to a well adjusted pet and a super clean house. I'd recommend her to anyone!”
“sydney was great! very thorough in making sure she had all the info needed to care for my dog. got a few updates and he seemed happy and well taken care of! i would definitely recommend her!”
“This is my first time using Rover and we were looking for an overnight sitter for mainly my little Genee girl who has never not had family around her. Anika filled that gap for us and did an amazing job. She put up with all my messages and provided pictures of Genee on walks and playing. She even included pics of the cat lounging around as usual. I was worried about leaving Genee for the first time but Anika made it much easier for me! I would highly recommend her and I will be calling upon her again when we need a sitter!”
About: I have been a pet sitter for 6 years and love what I do! I have taken care of a wide age range and enjoy each job just the same. Safety and respect is my priority, and I am comfortable administering medications. I am currently attending nursing school and am looking for some pet work related activities to fit into my day! I have a fair bit of free time and would love to spend it doing something I love, caring for animals! I am extremely comfortable around all animals, especially dogs. I will follow house instructions perfectly and use critical thinking skills when needed it situations. I am extremely respectful of your space, and will do my absolute best when caring for your pet!
“Clovis did a great job caring for our animals and house sitting while we were out of town, even our bearded dragon. They are very respectful and responsible. We got lots of updates with pictures and videos. They were very patient with our dog as he took time to warm up to them. Our house was in order when we returned and our animals seemed to be healthy and happy.”
“Roxy did a fabulous sit for us. She was so on top of everything we requested. Roxy gave us piece of mind so we could enjoy our vacation while both of our pets also got a vacation along with a new friend! Her communication was stellar; checking in, great pictures and clarification of requests. We will look forward (and our fur kids) to having Roxy sit for us again.”
“This was our first time having Jordan as a house and dog sitter. Not only was it obvious that he cared deeply about our dog’s physical and emotional well being, he also took amazing care of our home. It was cleaner than when we left. We definitely felt a peace of mind with Jordan taking care of our dog and home. His attention to detail showed on every way.”
About: Caring for animals has always been a part of our livelihood. For over 30 years we have been blessed to take care of both dogs and cats young and old. We have also worked closely with a dog rescue organization and have fostered numerous pups. We have had experience with both puppies/kitties and senior dogs/cats as we have had many that have lived their golden years with us. We are comfortable with many medical needs. As we have five pets of our own, we have become easily accustomed to dog and cat schedules. We work both in and out of the home and are available to take care of pets at all times of the day while pet sitting at our house. Pet sitting outside of our home can easily be supported on evenings and weekends. We have greater flexibility during the summer for weekday support. Our dogs enjoy multiple walks throughout the day as well as potty breaks and play sessions. Our cats enjoy snuggling and playing. We love sleeping with pups, but if they enjoy having their own time while sleeping, we can easily accommodate.
“Frank was a fantastic pet and house sitter! Our dog was very happy and well taken care of,, and our house was neat and tidy too. I would highly recommend Frank!”
“Reagan was amazing with our puppy River! She is very flexible with scheduling and quickly adapted to River’s changing medical needs. She went above and beyond for our pup and I would highly recommend her services.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Redland
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Redland on Rover is $38.85 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 4,471 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Redland. 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 Redland 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 Redland 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 Redland 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 Redland. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
