“Kristina did an awesome job with Brody and Bella. Before our trip we had 3 meet and greets. Bella can be nervous around new people and krsitina took her time with her and eventually warmed up to her. Brody got all the snuggles belly rubs he wanted. She made us feel very comfortable with all the texts and pictures she sent. We will be using Kristina in the future.”
“We can't say enough about Melissa. We were leaving during snow and ice for a long time planned vacation. Melissa made it to our home, took care of our pets and even went above and beyond to make sure we didn't worry while on vacation. She sent videos and pics daily, stayed in touch with us and we appreciate how happy our pets were. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Bonnie is amazing. Very responsive with communication. She had her first day yesterday with my daughter’s puppy who had just been spayed. She was very attentive to her needs, sent pictures throughout the day and kept me updated. Looking forward to having her two more days this week, we feel very comfortable with her. I would definitely use Bonnie anytime for either one of my dogs.”
“Mrs. P was amazing with our fur babies! They liked her right away, and she went above and beyond with our animals who are treated like family. Our animals need to have things done a certain way, and she had no problem accommodating them. The house was also left spotless. I really appreciated the pictures and updates every day and her quick responses to our messages. We are VERY fussy on who we leave them with, and we will be calling her again for sure!!”
About: I have cared for and owned all different kinds of animals. I have been in the horse riding industry since I was 8 years old so I am not skiddish towards other animals. I truly have a passion for animals and I am very able and willing to do what it takes to take care of your beloved pets!! I am currently a full time student, however I am a commuter so I have the ability to travel freely in between classes and outside of classes. I am on summer break from May-September and have a virtually free schedule for whatever you may need! I am more than happy to confine to whatever you may need me to do in order to give your pet the best care possible. I have slept over, done drop ins, walks, etc. with other dog and cat sitting jobs and I am very comfortable.
“Hanna was absolutely wonderful. She gave us updates and pictures throughout every day. This was our first experience using Rover and she made it a great one. We will for sure use her again in the future.”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Jackson and Kato. This was her first stay with them, and unfortunately she walked into a situation none of us fully understood at the time. Our senior dog, Jackson, was in the very early stages of what we later learned was likely a stroke or other serious medical event. His condition deteriorated rapidly after we returned home, and we ultimately had to help him cross the rainbow bridge just a few days later. Throughout her stay, Christine was observant, compassionate, communicative, and incredibly kind to both dogs. She cared for Jackson with patience and love during what turned out to be one of the final weekends of his life, and I will always be grateful for that. Knowing he spent those days being cuddled, comforted, and genuinely cared for brings our family tremendous comfort. She also completely won over our other senior dog, Kato, who adored her from the start. Christine followed detailed medication instructions, cared for two dogs with significant medical needs, took wonderful care of our home, and communicated thoughtfully throughout her stay. Most importantly, she treated our dogs like they were her own. We would welcome Christine back without hesitation and hope to have her spend time with Kato again in the future. Anyone considering booking with her should feel completely confident doing so. Thank you, Christine, for your kindness, professionalism, and for showing so much love to our boys.”
About: I have grown up around animals my entire life between pet sitting, breeding, owning, walking, bathing you name it i have done it. I am currently in training to become a dog groomer. I am very passionate about animals and i love them like my own I’m currently training to become a dog groomer twice a week so i’m looking for side jobs to help through it and pay for my tools I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, toys, and companionship from my dogs, while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible.
“Drew stayed in my home with my 2 boxers for a week and did a great job! She sent me updates and pictures everyday-it was so good to know that my dogs were being well taken care of, in their own home instead of a kennel. I would definitely call her again if needed!”
“We wholeheartedly recommend Nicholas for dog sitting! He took exceptional care of our dog during the week we were away. We were so impressed with his dedication to ensuring all of her needs were met. He diligently walked her for a full hour each day, made sure she had plenty of food and water, and was consistent with her potty breaks. What we appreciated most was the time Nicholas spent at our house, providing our dog with the companionship she needed. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she wasn't just being cared for, but also had someone there with her. We will absolutely be hiring Nicholas again in the future!”
“Kitty housesat and took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went away for a couple of nights. She did a great job, lots of updates and photos. I knew how well it went when I got home and my Border Collie was happy to see me, but she didn't "wig out". (This was the first time EVER that she didn't act like she hadn't seen me in years - she dies it even when I'm gone a few hours to run errands. We couldn't believe it!) Highly recommend and we'll be a repeat customer.”
About: Dog-walking and pet-sitting were some of my first jobs when I was a kid. I have 10+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. My family always had pets while I was growing up so caring for animals is something I feel comfortable about and truly enjoy doing! Aside from walking and checking in, I have also stayed and taken care of pets for longer periods of time. I own a 5 year old beagle and 9 year old cat myself! I am a recent college graduate and I currently only work part-time during the week so I have pretty flexible availability for scheduling. I am also available most weekends. I am a pet owner myself and I know that they are like family. I understand it can be hard for both you and your pet while away and I like to provide communication and updates through text and pictures. I have experience caring for sick pets as well as those that require medication/ extra assistance.
“Alyssa was a perfect fit for our household of one momma dog and her 6 puppies. She was attentive to making sure all the puppies were eating and all the bathroom breaks the mom wanted. She would send updates and pictures to ease my mind. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been watching pets since I was a teenager. I love animals and am very experienced. I love playing and cuddling with them. Whatever their energy level is I am happy to match. I’m currently a full time student. I’m free during afternoons and mornings. I just have to walk to class twice a day from noon to three. I am very attentive to what your pet needs. My dogs are super high maintenance so any level of care needed I am prepared for in making sure your animal is happy.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Romeo
This is new for us, using Anna for our senior dog. She is wonderful with dogs. We went for a full week out of the country, and Anna was great, and we were comfortable. She loves dogs, and Bailey loved her in return. Anna asked many questions to make sure she understood what Bailey needed and asked questions to clarify. We highly recommend Anna.

FAQs for House Sitting - Romeo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Romeo on Rover is $55.5 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 1,611 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Romeo. 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 Romeo 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 Romeo 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 Romeo 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 Romeo. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
