“Ashleigh did an amazing job housesitting our two quirky pups! She was excellent about communicating and sending timely updates. Both of our dogs warmed up to her right away and were relaxed the whole week in her care. We also appreciated Ashleigh’s flexibility with the start and end of care as our plans changed. We will definitely book Ashleigh again for house sitting or drop in visits!”

“Mia did an OUTSTANDING job caring for our dog and two cats. She sent us daily updates w photos of walks, playtime, and even did a photo shoot with our dog! She did a home stay for 4 nights and our house was impeccable when we returned. To say I would hire her again is an understatement. We’re convinced our pup misses her and we wish we could hire her indefinitely. If you pass on having her watch your pets you are missing out, if I could give ten stars, I would ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, I started dog sitting around 3 years ago and I've been at a doggy daycare for going on two years now. I'm currently working part time and have my weekends mostly free except for Sundays from 11-1 when I have training with my own dog. I will have plenty of time to love on your fur babies. I will provide loving care for your fur babies while you are away from home, I will communicate with you through text and send you pictures frequently. I also have experience with dogs who don't necessarily like people.

“Madison was amazing with our Aussie puppy!! She was very responsive and gave us frequent updates on how things were going. This was the first time we did a house sitter that stayed in the house and Madison was great and Maverick (our puppy) was able to stay in his familiar surroundings. I would highly recommend.”

About: I'm friendly energetic and I can't wait to take care of your little buddy!! My family and myself have had dogs as part of our family my entire life. I'm usually the go to friend to watch my friends dogs whenever they are away or taking a vacation. So I thought this would be a great opportunity to do something I love. I work a full- time job during the week but I am home every night and available most weekends. As long as I have at least 1 days notice I should always be available ☺️ I have a large fenced in yard and 1 small very friendly fur baby of my own. Your dog will be free to roam my home, cuddle on my furniture and experience all the love and companionship I give to my own dog. I have plenty of space for any size dog crate so if your dog is crate trained I can accommodate their stay that way too.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and have experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have a friendly Golden Retriever, so I’m familiar with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving medications when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll provide dependable, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention throughout the day. I’m committed to following each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a comfortable place to relax. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for

FAQs for House Sitting - Robins

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Robins on Rover is $41 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 per night. 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 334 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Robins. 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 Robins 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 Robins 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Robins 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.
