Shalini took great care of Buttercup while we were away overnight. She communicated well, sent lots of photos and updates, left the house in pristine condition, and kept Buttercup great company, as evidenced by the happy dog we returned home to. We’d absolutely use her again in the future!

Boryana is an extremely professional and reliable pet sitter. She has excellent communication skills, is very attentive to details, and did an outstanding job taking care of my cats. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for high-quality pet sitting services!

Sharyn was outstanding in taking care of our chow chow Khan. She did such a good job Khan barely missed us. She stayed at our home and took care of watering all our plants. I would not hesitate to use her again.

About: I’ve had 3 dogs and still have two. I also love all my friends and neighbors’ dogs as well. I’m comfortable with various sizes. I have small and medium but have walked friends labs & doodles. I’m very flexible and have some commitments Tuesday evening & Wednesday AM. Otherwise I just have the gym schedule to work around. Weekends are usually good too except some Saturday AMs by I can work around that commitment. I love animals and look forward to caring for your fur babies just as I would want someone to look after my fur babies. I can care for your pets in your home and will follow whatever usual routines your fur babies have. I can walk them, let them out and play with them.

About: I’ve been raising and caring for dogs for over 10 years, and they truly are my world. I’ve raised four puppies and have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life—from energetic young dogs to seniors, as well as rescue, reactive, and special-needs dogs, including caring for a dog with cancer. I’ve been raising and caring for dogs for over 10 years, and they truly are my world. I’ve raised four puppies and have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life—from energetic young dogs to seniors, as well as rescue, reactive, and special-needs dogs, including caring for a dog with cancer. I know how stressful it can feel to leave your pets with someone new—I’ve been there myself and struggled to find reliable care for my own dogs. Because of that, I take trust, communication, and consistency very seriously. You’ll always know what’s going on at home, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease. I’m calm, attentive, and very tuned in to each dog’s needs and routines. Whether your dog loves playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking to their usual schedule, I make sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure in their own space. I can prepare food the way your dog is used to, give medications and vitamins (I know all the tricks!), and adjust to any specific needs or preferences. I’m currently available for evening visits and overnight stays in your home (6 pm - 7 am) —perfect if you’re traveling but have daytime care already arranged, or even if you just need someone to stay with your puppy while you’re out for the evening.

I'm currently available evening and overnight stays in your home. Ideal for someone going away, but has a regular dog sitter or day care during the day. Or if you simply want to go out to dinner and need someone to watch your puppy. I have a full time (work from home) job. I am available 7 pm - 7 am after family takes over watching my own fur babies. Weekend availability on case by case basis. I am only available to watch your dogs in your home, where we can follow the schedule they are used to. We can play, practice tricks, eat, go for walkies and cuddle :)

Ryan was great! She stayed with our "pups" (as she cutely called them) for almost a week. Right from the start she sent texts, photos, and a sense that all was under control. Meeting her before the stay both her experience as a student working towards going to vet school and as a horse owner sealed the deal. We'd happily use her again.

About: I've had dogs since I was 14 and have taken care of them for family and friends over the years. That includes small and big dogs, young and old. Dogs in general seem to be drawn to me. I'm currently working part-time so that gives me more time to care for your pets and give them the attention they need and deserve. The best thing I can do is make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you're away. I do that by keeping them in their same routine everyday and giving them a lot of attention.

She took great care of my house while she stayed over and left it very clean. Highly recommend Danielle and I will definitely be using her services in the future!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’ve fostered 8 cats and 1 dog to date, helping them adjust to new environments and getting them ready for their forever home. I also have two cats of my own and two family cats, so I understand the care, attention, and patience they need. I’m also the go to pet sitter for my friends whenever they’re away. I’m also a certified sitter through Southeastern Guide Dogs, where I’ve cared for and trained puppies and service dogs in training. This has really shown me how to work with dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I know every pet is unique and I really take the time to understand their needs and personality. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for, giving you peace of mind and lots of pictures while you’re away! I recently graduated, so I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate my time to caring for pets. Between pet sitting and other flexible work, my routine revolves around the pets I’m caring for, not the other way around. This means I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and can easily adapt to your pet’s normal routine! As of right now, I am only able to provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay where they’re most comfortable, but also to ensure that my own cats, who are nervous around other pets, remain comfortable. When caring for your pet, I treat both your home and your baby with the same respect and attention I do my own. I carefully following feeding schedule, medication instructions, walking routines, and any other care preferences you provide. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I take the time to learn their personality, comfort level, and routine so they feel safe while you’re away. Safety really is my number one priority. I’ll make sure doors, gates, windows, and any other areas are secure. I’ll be sure to keep your pet in approved areas, look out for any changes in behavior or health, and send lots and lots of pictures and videos!

About: Hi! My name is Piyawadee, you can call me Annie, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with a genuine passion for caring for animals. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and currently I have a beagle of my own who brings so much joy to my daily routine. Spending time with dogs has always been something special to me—they’re not just pets, they’re incredible companions. I truly believe dogs have a unique way of providing comfort and emotional support, and they’ve always helped lift my spirits, no matter what kind of day I’m having. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I’m experienced in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. In fact, I’ve always felt that if I ever changed careers, working with dogs would be my dream job. Being around them brings me happiness, reduces stress, and gives me a sense of fulfillment that’s hard to find elsewhere. That’s exactly why I decided to become a dog sitter. I’m excited to spend my free time, weekends, and days off helping others by taking care of their beloved pets. I understand how important it is to know your dog is in safe, caring hands, and I will treat your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I'm currently working from home 2 days a week and off the whole weekend. I can provide boarding, walking, and drop-in services from Friday to Sunday. I live in the house with the big backyard in a great neighborhood. I can walk the dog around the neighborhood and play with your dog in the backyard. Our yard is unfenced, but we are planning to build the fence in this summer.

Shalini was wonderful with my GSD Izzy. She was very generously extended her sit time when I was running behind to ensure Izzy would not be left alone and took the time to first meet Izzy even prior to her sit to familiarize herself with Izzy’s training and needs. She is a lovely, professional and highly dependable sitter and we would book her again without hesitation (in fact we already have)!

FAQs for House Sitting - Roosevelt

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Roosevelt on Rover is $61.05 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 2,837 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roosevelt. 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 Roosevelt 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 Roosevelt 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 Roosevelt 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 Roosevelt. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
