“Andrea was so great with my pups! She had to watch three dogs at once and did amazing! She was extremely flexible when my plans changed. We returned to happy boys and a spotless home! I will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her!”
“Lexie is a wonderful dog sitter. She has tons of experience with and loves dogs, and they love her back. My girls were well taken care of during my recent trip, and Lexie kept in touch with me throughout my trip. I've already booked her for another stay!”
About: I have around five years of practical experience in providing dependable care for pets belonging to friends and family members. My pet experience includes walking, bathing, arranging meal times and treat routines, as well as enjoying quality time with them while their owners are away, sometimes for weeks at a time. Therefore, I feel quite confident in my ability to care for any dog for extended periods. Plus, I genuinely love going for daily walks every morning, and dogs always manage to bring a smile to my face. Since I'm on break, I'll be free Monday through Saturday, 5 days a week. What hours work best for you will work best for me! I will always review the guidelines given by my client for house-sitting or dog-walking services, and I will make sure to follow any additional instructions to a T. When I first meet a cat or dog, I take the time to understand the animal's temperament, checking for any signs of anxiety or specific likes and dislikes. I care a lot in ensuring that the pets feel secure when around someone new. After that, I simply enjoy spending time with them, hoping that they will grow to appreciate my company too!
“Amazing! Toni stayed at our place for 9 nights with our dog. She was totally reliable and communicated very thoughtfully. We were concerned since it was the first time we had hired someone we didn't know to take care of our cherished girl, but Toni put us at ease and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry. She even stayed home with Fiona during the 4th of July fireworks, because she gets very nervous. She made sure that our pup got long walks, love and treats, and that she stayed cool during a heat wave. Our house is quirky, and Toni handled it just fine. The house was also spotless when we came home. It was obvious that she bonded with our dog, and made her feel loved. We will definitely be asking Toni to housesit next time we go out of town!”
“Susan took care of my dog over a weekend with drop in visits. She communicated very well and sent pictures of my fur baby eating and relaxing. I would definitely use her again.”
“Lucy was so great! We had a last-minute request that she was able to accommodate, she was great at communicating and sent us cute pics of our pup Capri, and Capri loved her! Would definitely book again (:”
“Mara was great, the dogs seemed to really like her. She was on time, communicative, and respectful of the house. She sent lots of pictures, took all three on a walk at once which isn’t easy to do. She was patient with my old gal with doggy dementia. I would hire her again”
“We cannot recommend Mia highly enough! Entrusting someone with your home and your beloved pets is always a leap of faith, but from the moment Mia stepped in to care for Sazerac and Flora, all of our worries completely vanished. She is truly a phenomenal sitter who goes above and beyond in every possible way. First and foremost, Mia’s communication was absolutely stellar. While we were away on our vacation, she provided us with frequent, detailed updates and adorable photos. It gave us such incredible peace of mind knowing exactly how our dogs were doing, what they were up to, and seeing firsthand that they were so happy and well cared for. We never once had to wonder or worry; Mia kept us perfectly in the loop. Her timeliness and reliability were also impeccable. She stuck to our schedule perfectly, ensuring that both Sazerac and Flora maintained their usual routines without missing a beat. It is rare to find someone who pays such close attention to all the special details—from their specific feeding quirks to their favorite playtime activities, she handled everything with exceptional care and affection. To top it all off, we returned from our trip to an incredibly spotless home. Mia’s cleanliness and respect for our space were deeply appreciated. It felt like she left the house even better than we left it! If you are looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring person to watch your furry family members, Mia is the absolute best choice. Sazerac and Flora are already looking forward to her next visit!”
“Berenice is absolutely wonderful, kind, youthful and fun to walk my dog and play with her or just chill and watch movies with her in our hotel room while I went out to lunch and wineries and dinner. Berenice personality is SO kind, gentle and loving to my dog! Wish she lived in Los Angeles I would hire her weekly for walking . 10 stars ⭐️ ! Thanks Berenice”
“Gina did such a great job taking care of the place and making sure I had regular updates and photos throughout my trip. It meant a lot to have that peace of mind. She is truly an animal lover and I am so glad I found her! Definitely would recommend. Excellent job!”
“Naycis was so sweet with Bogart! She was very attentive to him and took him out to explore his surroundings which he loved. She was wonderful attending to all his needs as an 18 year-old. She regularly sent pictures and updates and was a lovely person. Bogart would love to see her again!”
“Jinah was outstanding! She sent daily messages and photos to keep me updated and took very good care of my dog and cat. She also watered my plants and left my house in perfect condition. She is professional, thorough, compassionate and very helpful. My dog is a large Old English Sheepdog. Many people struggle with his energy, but Jinah was completely comfortable with him and was able to handle him. I highly recommend Jinah.”
“Amieliana was great with our pups. She was very attentive to their needs and very responsive to messages. I felt completely at ease on our trip knowing they were well taken care of.”
“We had an awesome experience with Sebastian watching our 2 dogs for a week. He has been my dog walker for a while now and when we planned a trip he was my first message. Great communication and left the house is great shape.”
“Karen cared for my two cats and one dog for almost a full week while I was away, and she was absolutely amazing! It’s always hard for me to leave my pets, but she made the entire experience so much easier and stress free. She sent regular updates and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pets were happy and well cared for. My dog has some separation anxiety and my cats can be a bit shy at first, but they all warmed up to her quickly! It was clear she took the time to really connect with them and pay attention to their individual needs. I also really appreciated how respectful she was of my home, everything was clean and well taken care of when I returned. I’m so grateful I found Karen and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Kaitlin was great housesitting with our 2 dogs! Would absolutely rebook her again next time we need her. She checked in with us often and sent some great photos to let us know how well they were doing. She’s fantastic. ❤️”
“Marlee is a great pet sitter. I highly recommend her. My dog needed meds and special attention. Marlee gave her everything she needed. You can hire her with confidence that she will do a good job.”
“Cecilia is amazing! She genuinely cares for animals, which of course our pets also pick up on. We have trusted her completely to house-sit and take care of our cat, dog, and fish several times; we are never disappointed. Our dog misses her after she has left! Cecilia even trained our dog a bit (unprompted) while we were recently away. You can trust Cecilia to do an excellent job. Book her early, as she fills up quickly. Highly recommend!”
“Leaving a pet behind while traveling is never easy, but Josephine made the experience completely stress-free. She was a fantastic house sitter who took wonderful care of my dog, Emma, and kept me updated with regular messages while I was in Germany. Beyond being great with pets, she also tended to my garden during my two-week absence. If you are looking for someone reliable and attentive, I cannot recommend Josephine highly enough!”

Rissa was amazing! We were gone for 10 days, and she took care of our home and our fur baby girl, Harley. She gave us updates every day! Harley loved her, and she loved the dog walks and park visits they took. Risa kept our home tidy and got our mail and packages as they arrived; she also watered our plants. We will definitely keep using her services. I was very happy and at ease that our girl and home were in good hands while we were away. This was the first time we were away from our girl for that long.
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Kaitlin! This was our first time leaving our three sweet cats, so we were pretty nervous. Kaitlin immediately put us at ease by being very responsive and sending great daily photos. When we returned, our apartment was spotless and in order, and even our shy cat was more relaxed than usual. We are so thrilled to have found such a trustworthy sitter and can't wait to plan our next getaway knowing our cats are in the best hands.
Mara was great, the dogs seemed to really like her. She was on time, communicative, and respectful of the house. She sent lots of pictures, took all three on a walk at once which isn’t easy to do. She was patient with my old gal with doggy dementia. I would hire her again
Benjamin was a wonderful housesitter for our dogs and stayed in our home for almost two weeks. He was friendly, punctual, responsible, and very responsive throughout his stay. It was clear that he genuinely enjoyed spending time with our dogs and took great care of them. He left our home clean and in great condition, and we felt completely comfortable having him stay. I would definitely recommend Benjamin and would be happy to have him sit for us again!
Toni was wonderful with our 18-yo cat - she is a little high maintenance in her old age, but Toni was so sweet and loving and indulged all of her needs. She updated us with pictures and details, which helped us not worry while we were away. Toni also came to the house in advance to learn our routines and genuinely cared to understand our needs. We came home to a happy kitty and a spotless home. I'd definitely book Toni again in a heartbeat!
Brianna stayed at our house and took car of our cat and chickens for three weeks while we were out of town. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again in the future. She was very reliable, self sufficient and able to solve things as they arose, and very attentive to our animals needs. Our cat is a very attention needy cat with some odd behavior like biting and Brianna won her over and loved on her without any hesitation. We came home to a well loved and content cat. Brianna also took special care of our chickens during the heat wave, tending to their needs. We also came home to a freshly cleaned house which was very much appreciated. Brianna was wonderful and we highly recommend her.
Jan was wonderful watching my three dogs overnight. She was communicative throughout, sending timely updates and photos so I always knew how they were doing. She was respectful of my home and took wonderful care of the pups, making sure they felt comfortable and safe. I'd book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter who can manage a pack of dogs!
Rebecca is amazing! Totally sweet and professional. She took care of our 3 cats and our newly moved into house while we were away for work. We got regular updates and photos of our three cats and kept everyone well fed, entertained and loved. She was very flexible with our changing schedules and patient with our disorganization while we moved. She is now our go-to pet sitter any time we go out of town (hopefully you’re okay with that Rebecca 😂). Hire her!!!…. but also don’t book her when we need her 😂. Thank you so much Rebecca! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Roseland on Rover is $69.93 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,048 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roseland. 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 Roseland 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 Roseland 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 Roseland 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 Roseland. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
