“Laurie was amazing! She was very accommodating and sent photos of my fur babies while she watched them on my wedding day. She took them for walks and was very patient with them all. She was a real life saver and I would recommend her to any one in need of an amazing dog sitter. 🩷🐶”


“Belinda is one of the most incredible dog sitters EVER! She communicated effectively, followed every instruction on caring for our two little puppies, and ensured that they were loved and well cared for during my wife’s and I family vacation! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable professional dog sitter.”


About: I took care of 'Beau', a very large white American Retriever. He is the sweetest! I was temporary mom to Elsie, a huuuuuge Great Dane lady. You can see images of me and Elsie in my profile. I took care of a home and Chester (Tabby Male Kitty), Luna (Black Female Kitty) and their dog sister SnoBella. I watched these 3 for several months while their mama was recovering from illness. You can see images of SnoBella, Chester, Luna and I walking. The kitties loved to walk with SnoBella and me. I am also a plant mom. My own home — which is cared for by my daughter when I'm gone — contains 3 indoor trees and over 10 live plants, as well as a Gardyn indoor garden. I consider my plants also sort of my babies and will take care of yours as well. I work remotely, which allows me to spend much of the day with the pets in my care. Because I'm home throughout the day, I can provide companionship, maintain their normal routine, and keep a close eye on their well-being. Many pets enjoy relaxing nearby while I work, whether that's a cat curled up in my lap or a dog snoozing by my desk. If your pet is allowed outside I sometimes enjoy sitting on the patio and letting them roam the yard while I work. I keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible. My day includes feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning or potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection. Since I work remotely, pets often keep me company throughout the day, whether that's a cat in my lap or a dog at my feet. If approved by the pet parent, I'm also happy to let pets sleep with me so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away.
“Holly has been helping us take care of our doxie nori for a few years now and she has become our go to whenever we leave town and can’t bring nori along. I’m sure this goes for anyone on here looking for a sitter - our dog is basically our child so we are super selective about who we have take care of her! And finding Holly was a HUGE relief for us. She takes such good care of nori, shows her so much love and patience (nori can be a bit stubborn and not welcoming at first) and in addition to her care with nori, holly leaves our house cleaner than we left it! Cannot recommend her enough.”

“Took great care of our puppy and older dog. Super responsive and kept in touch. Dogs seemed to have a good time too. Will book with Emily again when we need someone to watch the dogs.”

“Claudia was wonderful! Our pup is always a little nervous with new people but by day 2 she was snuggled up with Claudia. She sent frequent photos and updates, was great at keeping Kaya on her regular schedule, helped out with other household tasks and left the house clean. I appreciate knowing that Kaya is being well taken care of because it allows me to enjoy my vacation! Kaya will be looking forward to her next stay with Claudia.”

“You get a dog sitter for peace of mind. And not only do you get that naturally when you book Mark, but you also get a ton of amazing pictures and videos every day that make it feel as if you’re there with your pet. This man is a game changer! Highly recommended and an extremely professional individual, if you see Mark available, you should definitely book!”

“Oh my! What a great dog sitter, and wonderful person! Kathryn took amazing care of our Pup Millie! She was Super committed to the care and communication during our trip. I totally 100% recommend Kathryn as a dog sitter! She really cares deeply for the pets in her care.”

About: I’ve been raised alongside both rescue cats and dogs my whole life. This taught me how to meet their unique needs, from nervous behaviors to senior care and special diets. I’m experienced with animals who need extra patience, love, and understanding, and I’m comfortable adjusting care routines to suit each pet’s personality and health needs. I work 4 days a week for 6-8 hours each day. On these days I will accommodate your needs in any way that I can. On my off days I am available all day for your sweet pets. In my home and when pet sitting, my approach is to figure out whatever unique needs each pet has, while providing all the love and affection they desire. I approach every animal with patience, love, and understanding.
About: I used to sit for a German family, whether it was date night, or when they left the country to visit their family. They were always so grateful they could trust me. They have moved out of state and I miss it. Let me take care of your furry baby like my own. I work M-Thurs, Friday I work from home, from 8am-5pm. I can do weekends or after work. If its house sitting then I would stay in your home. I will follow instructions on how you want me to take care of your pet, I know pets can get anxious and miss their family. I will try my best to offer comfort and familiarity.
“Nick was amazing! We originally had another dog sitter scheduled, but they canceled an hour after the first day of service began. Luckily, Nick responded right away and was at our house within the hour to help care for our dogs on such short notice! One of our pups is very shy, but the photos Nick sent showed her happily playing with her ball, which made us so happy to see. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dogs and for the wonderful pictures. You’re incredibly talented!”

About: I grew up in a very dog oriented family. All kinds and sizes from German Shepard to small Chihuahua. (Almost everything in between)my family and I treated our dogs as family. I can treat your pooch as such when he/ she comes to visit or vice versa. I love to spend extra attention making a dog feel secure and confident around me and his/her environment to my best ability. My schedule is very flexible which is ideal for pet sitting. I have class online Tuesday and Thursday (remote) I have a lab on Thursday for only 4 hours. I have a banquet job which is only 5 hours later in the evening. I have two very responsible pet loving roommates. One actually referred me to Rover. I have a fenced off secure backyard plenty of room to run around. They have compete access to the house and have two doggie doors where they can go out and go potty. For extra safety I have roommates to make sure everything is going amazing. On top of that I have amazing neighbors readily to help if needed. Everything is safe and secure as always.
“Sara is a dedicated proffesional with a true love for our four-legged furry friends. We have three girls, all 10 years and older, each requiring individual care. One required injections twice a day promptly at 8:00. With Sara, we were kept informed of daily doings with videos and messages. We always felt like the girls were taken care of. We could tell from the videos that Sara communicated with each girl equally and lovingly. I was so pleased with Sara that I told all my fellow dog parents about her. Sara was also very prompt in responding to calls and messages. Our dogs require 24/7 care and Sara made this a pleasure, not a chore. When we returned home, we knew the girls had been well cared for. We travel a lot and I have had a total of 28 dogs and cats so far in my life. I would never consider boarding my dogs and would rank Sara as one of the best doggie caregivers I have known over the past 50 years. Thanks, Sara.”
“David and Beth did a great job looking after our pets while we were away. They were understanding and flexible when a few unexpected things came up, which really put us at ease. We appreciated their care and would be happy to have them look after our pets again in the future!”


About: Caring for dogs has been a constant in my life for over 16 years. I’ve raised and cared for my own dogs and continue to pet sit for friends with a variety of breeds, each with their own personalities and needs. I bring a calm, consistent presence and take pride in providing thoughtful, reliable care so dogs feel secure, comfortable, and at ease. Availability is intentionally limited to ensure each client receives dependable, uninterrupted care. I offer flexible scheduling with advance notice and prioritize bookings where I can maintain a consistent presence and routine for your dog. I’m best suited for planned travel rather than last-minute requests, though I’m always open to coordinating when schedules align. I take on a select number of stays at a time to ensure each home and pet receives my full attention. Feel free to reach out with your dates in advance and I’m happy to coordinate accordingly. I provide calm, reliable in-home care so your dog can stay comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. My approach is structured and low-stress—maintaining your dog’s routine, keeping their space clean and secure, and ensuring they feel settled with consistent care and attention. I work best with house-trained, well-behaved dogs in stable home environments. I prioritize clear communication, daily updates, and a professional, respectful presence in your home. Meet & greets are required for all first-time bookings to ensure the right fit.
“Paris took great care of my sometimes anxious dog. She also looked after my fish and chickens. She clearly cares about the animals she watches and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re well looked after.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Rincon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rincon on Rover is $64.17 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 3,418 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rincon. 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 Rincon 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 Rincon 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 Rincon 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.
