“I just had the best experience with our dogs care taker! She visited twice and took notes as I explained his routine. She went beyond just watching Toby...she played with him. She feed him his food on time. She was kind and had a compassion for animals. I would book her again! Thank you for caring for our little boy!”
“Ariana did an amazing job. She was very proactive with status updates and kept me informed daily about everything Dexter was up to. I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free knowing my dog was in good hands. 10/10, will book again.”
“Halston was fantastic! He followed every single instruction I left for my dog and made sure he stayed on his routine, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. His communication was excellent. He sent regular updates with photos and videos, so I always knew how my pup was doing. Most importantly, it was clear how much he truly cared for my dog. When I came home, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I will absolutely be booking again. Thank you so much!”
“Ashlyn was very responsive and made herself available at the last minute to watch our dog and cat, plus a tortoise and 2 fish. In addition to caring for our sick dog, she also looked after our house, watered our plants and in general came to the rescue at the last minute for us.”
About: Having used Rover for our own animals, I know how important it is to have someone dependable and trustworthy in your home and caring for your pets. I have had dogs and cats my whole life (currently two big dogs - one is blind - and two cats) and now we have chickens too! I have experience with senior dogs and cats and special needs dogs. I am currently a stay at home mom with my kids at school all day, so I have lots of free time for your pets. I am very careful when going into other people's home and will make sure everything is all locked up before I leave. I am also safe when taking dogs for walks. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your loved pets!
“Keri has such a sweet and gentle demeanor. My pup, Klaus, fell in love with her right away! When I got home I could tell that Klaus had had a great time and was super comfortable with Keri. She asked pertinent questions and followed my instructions to a t. I would highly recommend Keri and I will absolutely be contacting her again to sit Klaus”
“After some less than stellar past experiences with another house sitter, we were thrilled to find Annie! She is trustworthy, clean, responsible, and our dog loves her! She sends us beautiful pictures of our pets while we are away and even baked some brownies that she left for us when we got home. We hope she never moves away so she can be our go to house sitter for years to come!”
“We had a great experience with Stephanie! Our animals seemed happy and well cared for when we got home AND we got detailed updates with LOTS of photos while we were gone 🤗”
“I was only gone for two nights, but I could tell Emmanuelle loved my fur babies like they were her own. I got lots of pictures and text updates, and she was always responsive when I reached out. I will absolutely book with her again!”
“Jennifer did a fantastic job watching our older pup! She went above and beyond what we had asked with extra walks/snuggles to make sure our sweet girl was taken care of while we were out of town. Will definitely use her services again! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“I definitely would recommend Bronwen! She communicated well and took such great care of my pets and house. I loved receiving pictures of my animals throughout her stay.”
“Jordynn was an amazing house sitter and wonderful with our two large dogs and two cats while we were away. She was very communicative, reliable and our animals loved her. We will definitely contact Jordynn again in the future.”
“Shania took great care of Tucker and was very communicative! She came over for a meet and greet to learn all about my dog and home and followed all my care instructions. My house was left clean and tidy and I returned to a happy pet :)”
“Adam is absolute clutch — seriously, 10/10 across the board. From the jump, he was super responsive and communicative, which immediately gave us peace of mind. He asked the right questions, sent thoughtful updates, and clearly got it when it came to caring for our crew (Nala, Zeus, Tank, and Milo — no small squad!). What stood out most was how he treated both our kids and our home with total respect - as if they were his own. You can tell Adam takes real ownership in what he does — he’s responsible, attentive, and just all-around solid. He handled everything like a pro, but with a calm, easy energy that made the whole experience stress-free on our end. If you’re looking for someone who blends trustworthiness, genuine care, and good vibes, Adam’s your guy!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rosedale
Annika used to watch our elderly dachshund and is now helping us by staying with our dachshund puppy. She is extremely reliable and willing to go the extra mile with a higher maintenance little guy. She provides excellent communication as well. We feel so fortunate to have found her, I always feel comfortable leaving our pup in her care.
Christine stayed with our 12-week old puppy while we were out of town for 8 nights! It was very stressful to think about having to leave our sweet girl right after bringing her home, but Christine ended up making it really easy for us. She took excellent care of her and our house, treated our pup like a princess, checked in with us frequently, and sent plenty of pictures and videos for us to enjoy. She got our puppy to sleep through the entire night and had her pretty much fully housetrained by the time we came home! She also passed along her training tips and tricks (and even left a few special treats), which have been really helpful. Christine really went above and beyond and I’d happily recommend her to anyone needing help with their dog. She was truly fantastic! Five stars for sure!
Alexa was so great with our two labs. She took great care of them including giving them ear drops daily. Alexa was great at communicating and sending updates on our pups. She left our house immaculate. We highly recommend Alexa and will definitely use her again.
Cambria did a super job with our pets. The day before we left one dog ended up in Urget Care after ingesting bones and having tarry black poop. We had a specific care plan for him and frankly Cambria is the ONLY sitter I would have felt safe leaving him with! “No problem” she said, “I’ve got this!” After we talked about it. He recovered and she sent me very specific updates about his condition. She always sends lots of pictures and takes our younger dog on some very long walks to keep her happy. Plus she leaves the house in better shape than anyone ever does. Everything nest, tidy, folded, and the little welcome home bouquet was so special. She is the best pet/house sitter ever. Thank you Cambria for the peace of mind you gave us.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rosedale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rosedale on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 6,916 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rosedale. 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 Rosedale 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 Rosedale 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 Rosedale 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.

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.
