“Stephanie is awesome! She met with me and my four fur babies (3 dogs/1 cat) twice before our trip and we all loved her from the get-go! My daughter‘s dog is a sweetheart, but she usually takes a while to warm up to strangers but not Stephanie, she warmed right up to her which was a great sign and indicator that I picked the right person for our housesitting job. Stephanie is so easy to work with and you can tell she truly loves animals. She gave me peace of mind so much that I didn’t even worry during my trip. I would definitely hire her again!”
“My Kittens Sushi and Orion warmed up to Bri and were happy to have her company. She was great in being understanding of their personalities and routine as well as the logistics of their environment. Great communication and photos from her while I was on my trip. Would like to book her again. Thanks again Bri!”
“Tyler was friendly and communicative. He was interested in our dogs habits and wanted to know her full routine so he could keep her comfortable while we were traveling. Tyler sent updates with pictures during his stay. We came home to a tidy house and a happy dog.”
“Rocko struggles with dog reactivity so finding a caretaker to stay with him and handle him safely outside was our #1 priority. Tracey was fantastic and her communication and handling were thoughtful. Thank you for taking care of Rocko so we could do what we needed to on our business trips!”
About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds for many years. As a dog owner and mom to teenage children, I'm used to dealing with whatever comes up. I'm always punctual, reliable, and I'll love your pets. I have several volunteer commitments, and teenage children, but I'm generally very flexible and can work with you to fit around your pets' needs. I can be there for the whole day, pop in for play and food, or go for long walks. I'm practical, reliable and always punctual. I'll leave your home as you left it and take such good care of your pets with whatever they need.
“Kathy did an amazing job taking care of Coco. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in great hands. Thank you Kathy!”
“So grateful we found Sophia -- she is excellent! We were nervous about finding someone to stay in our home for a week that not only we could trust, but that our sweet, but anxious and stranger-averse, rescue dog would let past her tough shell and get along with. I was stunned when our dog almost immediately warmed up to Sophia during our meet and greet (that never happens), and not only did she get along with Sophia, she clearly bonded with her and missed her after we returned from our trip. Sophia took great care of our home, treated our pup with so much love, provided much appreciated updates with photos and videos, communicated proactively and timely, took our dog on multiple walks a day (even though it rained most days, she bought a doggy raincoat!), and was gracious and flexible about trip date adjustments and meet/greet times. Can't say enough positive things about Sophia -- would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: Having owned and cared for dogs and cats my whole life—including years of pet-sitting—I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet my full attention whenever you need support. Whether you need dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home pet sitting, your pet will enjoy attentive, personalized care with the perfect mix of play, walks, and dedicated attention. I primarily work remotely from home with a highly flexible routine, allowing me to focus on your pet throughout the entire day. Because I am on-site continuously, I can provide frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, play breaks, and quick neighborhood walks. I easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding and exercise schedule without leaving them unattended. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities. When pets are in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and fully pet-proofed space equipped with comfortable resting areas and secure environments. For care hosted in your home, I strictly follow your established routines, care instructions, and safety boundaries. Regardless of location, I ensure all doors and windows remain secure and double-check all leashes and gear before heading outside.
“Andrew is an attentive, thoughtful pet sitter who quickly earned my pets trust. He ensured my pets food and water dispensers were always full, and went above and beyond to ensure my pets received attention and excellent care while we were on vacation. I highly recommend Andrew for both longer and short duration pet sitting needs!”
“We are so so happy with Erika! She’s an absolute animal lover, and our dogs were comfortable with her immediately. Amazing communication and sending us pictures and updates the whole time the…peace of mind we needed. Thank you Erika!”
“Lynn did an outstanding job caring for our two COVID rescue dogs, who are very unsocialized and typically only feel comfortable around my husband and me. Leaving them with someone else was a big deal for us, but Lynn was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and understanding of their needs. She kept us updated every day with videos and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My husband and I felt confident that our girls were in good hands, receiving the patience, attention, and loving care they needed. Lynn truly went above and beyond to keep them comfortable and well cared for. If you are looking for a genuine, knowledgeable, and trustworthy pet sitter, hire Lynn! We couldn't have asked for a better person to care for our girls, and we would absolutely trust her with them again. Thank you, Lynn!!! Overall Rating: 5 stars. I would give her 10 stars if I could!!!”
About: A lifelong love for animals has lead me to professionally working in Veterinary medical centers and Shelters. I am an Adoptions Counselor for the San Diego Humane Society. I am Fear Free Certified, trained in proper husbandry and handling for a range of species, and educate new owners on such. I am available all day Mondays and Tuesdays, Thursday through Sunday mornings and evenings for drops ins and walks. With overnights I am flexible as long as communication and time permit. I adore taking pets on walks or out to play! I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes. I prefer to pet sit in an animal’s own environment for their same. It is already stressful to be away from their family and staying in their homes is helpful.
About: I've always had a special love for animals, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. As a dog owner myself, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for a furry family member. I have personal experience with feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing with toys, or just cuddling on the couch, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I understand that every pet is different, and I'm happy to follow any specific instructions to keep their routine consistent. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in caring hands! 🐶❤️ I'm currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I love spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy! I'm happy to work around each pet's routine, whether that includes walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company. I do my best to communicate clearly with owners about my availability and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve! Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I make sure to follow all instructions provided by their owner. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or visiting theirs, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and loving environment. I always make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, and receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'm careful about keeping doors and gates secure, supervising pets, and making sure they're comfortable in their surroundings. I also respect each owner's home and belongings. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry friend with someone else, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and pictures to give you peace of mind. I'll treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own! 🐾❤️
“She is kind and gentle with the animals. She’s smart and independent meaning she can find her way and do the right thing without step by step instruction. She’s GREAT! She has common sense and empathy. She was readily available on short notice (hour) and made it so we wouldn’t miss our child’s concert. Any pet that has her as a pet sitter is VERY lucky! She’s the best! Thank you, Radia!”
“Landry was nothing short of fantastic! Incredibly dependable and communicative and sent us pics of our pup throughout our trip. Our dog also takes a lot of medication, and she did a wonderful job keeping up with his med schedule. We came home to a happy pup and a clean home! Will definitely book with Landry again!”
“Andrea took such thorough and loving care of our pups. We appreciated all of her updates with photos. She was wonderful with our two dogs and they seemed comfortable with her. We trust her in our home & will definitely hire her again . Thank you!”
About: Hi I’m Aaron, I have cared for the pets of my family and friends since I was 16 years old and have volunteered at many rescues and shelters over the years. I currently volunteer at the humane society of silicon valley and a non-profit farm. I have extensive experience working with pets in clients’ homes and I have one year of experience working as in home care giver for individuals with special needs. I am comfortable working with breeds of all sizes and various levels of training and would love to get to know your pet! I hope that this job will provide me with the hands on and memorable experience I need to get into vet school :) I currently work as a special ed teacher working with adults with high needs, so I’ve got lots of energy and patience. I work from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm, but I’m used to early mornings. I am can provide direct care for your pets from 5 am - 7:30 am and from 3:30 pm onwards. My apartment does not allow pets so working at your home would be best for me :) I have lots of experience caring for pets in the home. I have house sat for large and small breeds at various levels of training. The first thing I try to establish from the owners is a sense of the pets routine (what a day usually looks like for that pet), then when I meet said pet I try to bond with them through that routine. I also try to communicate with the owner about what sort of energy the pet responds best to. I know that some pets what a more playful and fun affect while others benefit from something more mellow.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Robertsville is $75
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Robertsville
Kayla took such wonderful care of our dogs, Cox and Coda! She was kind, reliable, and attentive to their individual routines, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was comforting knowing they were in caring hands. We really appreciate her help and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
My dog had a good experience! Tyler was very communicative and sent updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away for the weekend. He clearly knew how to work with my dog so i knew my dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! I will be definitely book again!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Our boy was in great hands with Katelyn, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for. Katelyn was wonderful, communicative, and so sweet with him. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby! ❤️
What can I say?!? Michelle went above and beyond. Our dog Pliny got sprayed by a skunk during the booking, and without missing a beat Michelle bathed her well, started washing the towels and blankets, and kept us posted through the whole thing. She took good care of her, and we appreciate her dealing with this very awful event. Highly recommend! Thanks again Michelle!
Rose is amazing! She truly loves pets and is so caring! Rose communicates throughout the pet/house care duration. She also takes the most phenomenal photos and sends them to you! She could be a professional animal photographer! Rose is so much more than a pet sitter! She is an incredible person who we are proud to call a friend!
Seannie is a wonderful, caring sitter who adapted to our rescue dog’s needs so quickly and kindly. Maize can be anxious at first, but she warmed up to Seannie very quickly because of her gentle way with animals. Seannie even walked her regularly, though that is no easy feat as Maize pulls hard on the leash! We were so happy knowing Maize was having a fun, varied experience while we were away. Seannie was thoughtful and detail-oriented from the beginning, asking questions about Maize’s needs, our home, and safety precautions. She took our detailed instructions seriously and handled a couple of unexpected situations with grace and ease. She is flexible and able to seize the moment and act when necessary—exactly what you need in someone looking after your home and animals. I also left detailed instructions for my plants, initially worrying that I was asking too much. But she did such a wonderful job that several plants looked even bigger and healthier when we returned! Maize was very happy to see us when we returned, but we knew in our hearts that someone very kind had looked after her for the past two weeks. We highly recommend Seannie!
Marissa was fantastic! She took great care of our home and our dog, Brenda, while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands and Brenda was well cared for. Marissa was reliable, responsible, and easy to communicate with. We would absolutely trust her with our home and Brenda again. Highly recommend!
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! She has taken care of our cat and rabbit, and she was absolutely wonderful them. She has such a natural ability to connect with animals, and it was obvious how comfortable, happy, and loved they felt with her. She is incredibly caring, attentive, reliable, and truly someone we trust completely with both our pets and our home. While house sitting, she took amazing care of everything and left the house exceptionally clean and tidy. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in such good hands. She genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and that really shows. We will absolutely book her again and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!
Stephanie is awesome! She met with me and my four fur babies (3 dogs/1 cat) twice before our trip and we all loved her from the get-go! My daughter‘s dog is a sweetheart, but she usually takes a while to warm up to strangers but not Stephanie, she warmed right up to her which was a great sign and indicator that I picked the right person for our housesitting job. Stephanie is so easy to work with and you can tell she truly loves animals. She gave me peace of mind so much that I didn’t even worry during my trip. I would definitely hire her again!
Tiana was great! She was very patient with my dog who was a bit nervous. She knew exactly how to handle it and by the end they were great! She kept me informed about how she was doing and also did dishes and laundry. I’ll definitely reach out to her for future needs. Thanks, Tiana!
Ashley was so great with our girls! Kind, attentive and very communicative with us while we were gone for a week and she stayed with them. We got frequent updates and photos of them, which we greatly appreciated. She is warm and friendly and very clearly cares about these pups. Look forward to booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Robertsville is $73 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $118 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,715 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Robertsville. 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 Robertsville 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 Robertsville 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 Robertsville 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
