“Jane has watched our two dogs twice this summer and we highly recommend her. She's consistent with her care with our dogs as she ensures she's caring for them up to our standards. She takes care of our home and leaves it very clean. Highly recommend her.”
“Jada was absolutely excellent! Jada provided outstanding care for our sweet fur baby. Her detailed updates with photos and videos were incredibly reassuring and did 100% justice to her fantastic service. She stayed in our home and made us feel completely at ease. I’ll admit I was nervous after a previous bad cat sitting experience, so I left extensive notes about our pet’s care and routine. Jada wasn’t fazed by this at all and completely understood our concerns about having a stranger in our home. Her professionalism and genuine understanding put us right at ease. We really enjoyed having Jada care for our pet and can’t wait to have her back for our next trip. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m Gloria! I graduated from Penn foster last year to become a Veterinary Technician and I’m taking my VTNE to become a licensed veterinary technician in October and have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in both hospital and clinical settings. I specialize in providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care for pets of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets who need extra patience or medical awareness. My background includes assisting with procedures, monitoring recovery, supporting medication routines, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. Because of my experience, I’m especially confident caring for: • Senior pets • Pets with anxiety or special needs • Pets requiring medications or close observation • Multi-pet households I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home. I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent, providing lots of attention and comfort, and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you always feel at ease. My goal is simple — to provide reliable, professional care so your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart, yes I can give medications but I don’t know how to give insulin to diabetic patients. ✔ 8 years veterinary experience ✔ Comfortable with medications & special care ✔ Experienced with senior and anxious pets ✔ Strong attention to safety and behavior changes ✔ Reliable communication with daily updates ✔ Calm, patient, and dependable I’m available Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm for dog sitting, dog walking, or house sitting and if have cats I can take care of them as well. I plan to dog or cat sit at the comfort of the owners home but if they need to come to my home for any reason my home is fenced and I do have kennels and extra food and water and I do have two dogs who are super sweet and kind. I also have a cat and he gets along with dogs and cats if you need me to cat sit your cat at my home I can do that as well
“Kimberly was such a treasure for us! Our pup had an unfortunate little accident right before our trip but Kimberly did an amazing job caring for him given his extra needs. We will definitely use Kimberly in the future to ensure our fur babies are well cared for!”

About: At my old apartment I used to dog sit and I have experienced the puppy stages to adult. During High school I used to be in FFA so I have some experience in farmhand. As of recently I’ve volunteered at shelters and it’s taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, how to read body language and much more.I’m currently trying to start college to study veterinary. I’m available Monday-Wednesday from 9am-8pm and Thursday-Saturday from 10am-5pm everyday. Sundays I take off unless of an emergency and you need me to watch your furbaby immediately. Whether your dog needs exercise and playtime, your cat needs calm companionship and litter box care, or your pets simply do best staying in their own home, I’m happy to help. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving your pets the attention and affection they deserve.
“LOVED! Was the first time I’ve used Courtney or anyone out side of family in years and I felt comfortable since day one and the pictures of my boys smiling throughout the whole stay just made it better! Will absolutely reach out to Courtney for my future needs”
“Stacy took great care of my fur baby! She sent me daily updates and pictures of him, and made sure to spend so much time giving him attention. This was my first time leaving Bentley, and I felt so comfortable leaving him in such great hands! She even took him on extra walks, and I couldn’t be more grateful :)”
“Brodie took to Karissa from the very first moment. She was very professional and I knew he'd be in good hands. She sent a photo update every day so I could see he was doing well. It was nice to come home to a clean house as I left it and a well-kept-for dog who got to snuggle.”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing! My dogs loved her, and she kept me at ease the entire time with consistent updates, messages, and photos. She truly went above and beyond—not only taking great care of my dogs, but also leaving my home spotless. She washed the sheets and towels she used, cleaned up, and handled everything with so much care and attention to detail. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Josh & Erin were so great with my pups. It was the first time we use a sitter service and we were nervous about the whole process. They did a meet and greet and asked a bunch of questions, answered all of ours, and were really comfortable around our 2 German Shepherds and Chihuahua. They stayed in our home and took great care of our dogs. We got pictures and recaps of their days. Thank you so much guys, can't tell you how much we appreciate it!!”
“Elizabeth agreed to take on a last minute request to take care of my old gal one day before leaving on a 10-day trip. Elizabeth stopped by to get acclimated with my dog, and despite my dog being hesitant, Elizabeth agreed to take the job. She was able to stop by daily and provide daily updates via text on how things were going, and it was great to hear how my dog would begin to open up to her as the days went on. I’m glad my dog began to open up and would love to use elizabeth again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello! I am currently a stay-at-home pet parent with 10+ years of experience caring for fur babies. I have previously worked for a pet hotel where I gained skills in training and grooming. In my personal life, my friends and family often rely on me for pet sitting. I have 2 sweet, energetic dogs - a male miniature Australian Shepherd and female Lab Mix - who are both 1 1/2 years old. I spend most of my time enjoying enriching activities with them. Both are very welcoming and get along great with other dogs of all sizes. I’m passionate about providing activities that are mentally enriching in addition to physical exercise and fulfilling their natural drives. Playing with purpose is so much more fun and rewarding! My preferred schedule is noted in my availability, but I’m happy to accommodate (including last minute availability) whenever I can so please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or concerns before booking. I have a fenced yard, enrichment activities, and a friendly, energetic puppy to keep yours entertained. For visits in your home I can take care of feeding, administer oral medication, take them for a walk, etc depending on your individual preferences. I’m also happy to water your plants and bring in your mail upon request 🙂
About: I’ve always grown up around all different types of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and fish so I have had lots of practice. I have had many family members, family friends and friends of my own ask for help and I’m always so happy to do so!! I am currently taking an online class for college so I am available almost any time and any day. I cannot do Saturday’s because I live with a toddler so I stay home and visit with family on the weekend, but other than that I am free, so why not spend it with cuties!? I always keep up with the animals that are in my care I always make sure I’m paying attention to what they eat, how much they are eating, making sure they have water at all times, I make sure to take them on at least 2-3 walks a day depending on how long they are in my care! I also make sure to provide them some fun and playtime so they are not alone all day or in a kennel cooped up all day either.
“Aubrianna was the best house sitter I’ve had . She was on time and kept me up to date on everything about my dog. I felt very comfortable with her there and keeping an eye on everything . I will book again in the near future”
About: Pet care schedule: Your baby will have 4 outside play sessions a day 6-7am 11-12pm 4-5pm 9-10pm Your baby will take 2 walks on leash to monitor pooping and to help burn out energy. If you are requesting a meet and greet, please understand meet and greets must take place at my residence where your baby is being kept, because I must remain present for pets I am sitting ❤️. Pet owners will receive picture or video updates about their fur baby a minimum of twice a day unless there is a special request. A little about me: I enjoy spoiling and treating my fur babies like my own children (because they are lol). I lived on a farm for most of my life and have cared for animal my entire life. I own a mini poodle, named Zoe, who loves playing with other dogs. Zoe and I enjoy dog parks, doggie pools, visiting doggie bakeries to try new treats, playing catch and tug of war, doggie walks, play dates with other dogs, and cuddle time while watching a great movie. My dog is my best friend. Zoe’s healthy and happiness is important to me, and it is equally important to me to ensure your fur baby is cared for with the same quality of time, effort and love. I’m very flexible and I aim to be accommodating to the people I serve. When doggie sitting, I enjoy sending parents daily images of their pups having fun, and I also enjoy sending pups home with a treat. I make sure I am available throughout the day to stay connected with pup parents, and to ensure pups are well cared for and attended to. Lastly, I am also experienced in caring for other animals such as birds, fish, hamsters etc, and I grew up raising and caring for farm animals as well. In my care, your pup will enjoy daily walks, up to 4 outdoor play sessions a day, water play (with doggie sprinkler or doggie pool), access to roam a large fenced back yard, the company and friendship of other dogs, daily treats and snacks (at the approval of the owner), doggie day care shows on a movie projector, and all the cuddles and love they need while you’re away. I’m looking forward to meeting and caring for your fur baby ❤️. I work from home! In addition, i have a ring camera in my home that allow me to monitor pet activity 24/7. I believe in keeping pets safe, comfortable and well entertained. Pups are released outside for potty breaks every 2-4 hours starting at 6am. Pups are given 3-4 play sessions outside in the fenced yard. Play time includes allowing them to play with toys, water (pool, sprinkler), and play among other pups. I typically will keep pups food and water filled, but will keep pups on a special feeding schedule at the request of the parent. I also provide pups with treats through out the day as positive reinforcement but will omit at the parents request. Pups are allowed to roam the house but pups who are not potty trained are crated at bedtime.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Roman Forest is $45

Sirena was absolutely incredible with my ladies! I received daily communication and photo updates, which completely eased my nerves while I was away. She followed all feeding instructions to the letter and treated the ladies like family. I returned home to very happy, relaxed pups and a clean home. I will definitely be booking Sirena again :)
Danielle took amazing care of our puppy Henry while we were out of town a few days. She went way above and beyond to make sure Henry was happy and comfortable without us. She took him on lots of walks, played with him, and kept us up to date with texts and pictures that made us feel like he was in great hands while we were away. We will for sure have Danielle care for Henry again and recommend her to anyone needing quality care for their pup.

FAQs for House Sitting - Roman Forest
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Roman Forest on Rover is $59.95 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 1,755 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roman Forest. 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 Roman Forest 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 Roman Forest 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 Roman Forest 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 Roman Forest. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
