“Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our four pups, which includes a senior French bulldog, two very sweet, but very large and powerful Dogo Argentinos, and a second, very mischievous escape artist French bulldog. She took time to understand each dog’s unique personality and tailors her care to each. She was also extremely communicative, and sent us pics multiple times a day. Highly recommend!”
“Lucy was so great! We had a last-minute request that she was able to accommodate, she was great at communicating and sent us cute pics of our pup Capri, and Capri loved her! Would definitely book again (:”
“Lupin and Blackberry both LOVE Nyah and it’s only the second visit! Lupin jumped In her lap right away and blackberry came right up to her for pets! Nyah has been so flexible and reliable!”
“Josephine was AWESOME!! She communicated and sent pictures of the kitties while we were gone. Our kitties seemed very much at ease when we got home. Josephine left our house spotless when she left. I hope she can stay with our kitties whenever we’re outta town!”
“Gina did such a great job taking care of the place and making sure I had regular updates and photos throughout my trip. It meant a lot to have that peace of mind. She is truly an animal lover and I am so glad I found her! Definitely would recommend. Excellent job!”
“Highly recommend Kaitlyn! This was our first time using Rover because we are so picky about our sitters and have always felt very weary about hiring someone we don't know. After our meet and greet we felt at ease knowing our senior chihuahua and 4-month-old great pyrenees puppy were in great hands. Kaitlyn treated our pups with love and our home with care.”
“Mia is so wonderful! Our dog Huck typically gets pretty sad when we go out of town, but he instantly fell in love with Mia. We had a meet and greet and we could tell right away she was an animal lover, and Huck knew that too! Mia stayed at our house with Huck while we were away for a long weekend and she not only loved and snuggled him, but our house was spotless upon our return home. We so appreciated her caring for our fur baby and our home while we were away! She sent us photos and we were able to enjoy our time knowing Mia was watching over Huck and taking such good care of him. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
About: I am 35 yo and grew up on a farm caring for various types and sizes of animals. I have never been without at least one personal pet my whole life, even while moving around the country. I have some experience with training using verbal and hand commands for personal pets. I have experience in every stage from babies to seniors in diapers and mellow tempered to very spirited animals. Personally I have had the pleasure of owning many cats, labs, yorkshire terrier, shih tzu, boxer/pit mix, chihuahua/pug mix, American Blue Pit, and a Jack Russell. 2 of the dogs were from abusive backgrounds and required patience and special care. I am also comfortable giving medication if needed. I used to give my dogs at least 2 1-2 mi walks everyday. I enjoy all types of temperament and ages of animals. Whether they are high energy and need lots of play or just some interaction indoors, I'm your girl! I do not currently offer homecare at my home. At a client's home I will follow the guidelines given by the client keeping their pet and property safe and respected while doing so.
“Thank you, Holly for your service in watching Ryder and being with him. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I loved the pictures you sent from the trips you made to the park. My brother said rides in the car are what he lives for. I appreciate your efforts to entertain him. It helps so much to be relieved knowing there is someone there for him. He gets lonely so easily.”
“Sofia stayed in our house and watched our two pups and cat over the weekend. She was quick to reply and left the house just as we had left it. Already have her booked for our next vacation!”
“This was my first time using a dog sitter through Rover, and I was very happy with Joshua. He was very responsive, sending pictures and keeping me updated on how the dogs were doing. I highly recommend and will definitely use him again.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rithy! She is timely, communicative and treats your pet like they’re her own. This was my first time using Rover and I feel lucky to have found Rithy. She stayed with Clover for the weekend, texted me photos of their adventures, and she made homemade food for Clover! I think they both had a great weekend together.”

Nyah did a wonderful job watching our cat while we were away. She was very reliable, respectful of our home, and clearly has a great love for animals. Nyah sent pictures and updates while we were gone, and it put my mind at ease to see our cat so happy and well cared for. I will not hesitate to book her services again. 5 stars, very highly recommended!
I've had really bad luck with dog sitters in the past so I have a lot of anxiety around leaving my almost 15 year old shihtzu mix with just anyone. Mia was amazing... I explained to her what had happened with previous sitters and she made every effort to make sure I was as comfortable as possible. She willingly came and met with Weez twice before the confirmed dates. Mia stayed at my apartment and took care of week for a week! She sent me pics and updates and was very communicative. I came home to a clean apartment and a very happy dog! Mia has given me a chance to take vacations and see family again. I could not recommend her enough!! I will be booking with her again!
Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our four pups, which includes a senior French bulldog, two very sweet, but very large and powerful Dogo Argentinos, and a second, very mischievous escape artist French bulldog. She took time to understand each dog’s unique personality and tailors her care to each. She was also extremely communicative, and sent us pics multiple times a day. Highly recommend!
Emma is amazing! We ended up leaving her with an injured dog that needed meds and additional treatment and a sick cat that had to be given pills daily. Her response was: No problem! Her experience as a vet tech was obvious. Upon return the house and our pets were very well taken care of. Thank you Emma!
Holly is an amazingly caring, responsible, clean sitter. We have two large dogs and she made sure they were both well cared for. She even read to them just like we do at home. She came to our home and stayed for several days. We will definitely be having her back. If you are lucky enough to hire Holly she’s exactly who you want to watch your dog(s)!
Rachel was so wonderful in every way! She took the best care of our home and our fur baby, Huck while we were away for our wedding. She was super communicative and sent lots of wonderful photos. It was clear how much Huck loved her!! We can’t wait to work with Rachel again soon.
While planning an overseas trip, our biggest concern was about our crew, 3 cats and 2 dogs. In fact, we had a bad experience a few years ago when our dogs boarded at someone's home so you might say our concern was justified. But those worries melted away when we first met Betsy. She quickly bonded with our pups and even two of our cats who always hide around strangers became Betsy's buddies within a few days. Betsy took great care of the crew, keeping us updated and sending multiple pictures. And even when there was a small hiccup along the way, we appreciated the fact that she was honest about it. She also took good care of our home and I can't recommend her enough.

FAQs for House Sitting - Riccas Corner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Riccas Corner on Rover is $104.34 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 979 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Riccas Corner. 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 Riccas Corner 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 Riccas Corner 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 Riccas Corner 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.
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.
