“Isabelle is a great sitter! She arrived very prepared for the stay and asked a lot of questions to make sure my dog got the best care while she was here. During the stay she was very easy to reach and provided great updates with how my dog was doing.”
“Julia did an amazing job caring for not only our pup but also our two rats! She kept us feeling comfortable throughout our trip by providing consistent updates and plenty of photos. She treated our home with great respect and truly went above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy.”
“Yaretzi was amazing and shared photos of Zarra during her care and also kept me updated on how she was doing. Yaretzi was very understanding and acknowledged our concerns of leaving our fur baby for the first time. We will definitely contact her again when we are back in town.”
About: I’ve always had pets in my life and now would pass on that love and compassion to your dog. Lots of experience in old and young dogs. I am retired and have extra time so my friend told me about Rover and she loves it so I want to enjoy the experience also! I will make whatever steps necessary that are needed to care for your dog in your home. At my home, they will have free roaming of a 2000 square-foot home and enjoy my daughter and my granddaughter also helping love your dog.
About: I have over 30 years of personal experience owning dogs, having almost 4 at once on my family's country farm growing up. Since I was a toddler I've had an easy connection with dogs that allows me to make fury friends easly. I've seen the good and bad of what it takes to look after them, from a new puppy to a sunset dog. I work a full time but I'm open to mornings from 7-9:30am and any hour after 7:30 pm after working. I'm otherwise free otherwise all day on Monday and Thursday I pay extra attention to wants and needs while ensuring food and water are always available. I keep pets in the designated area unless otherwise allowed. I would prefer to sit at your house on camera if possible as I do have 2 dogs at home that are friendly but want to make sure there is ample room for everyone.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I am a genuine animal lover and have gotten along with every pet I’ve come across with enough time. Every pet is different with a variety of needs, I’m here to understand that and give them the best care possible! I’m currently starting out on Rover so I do not currently have a routine. I am very open and fluid with scheduling so please reach out! I love spending time with animals so getting your pet to be comfortable with me is a big priority. Aside from caring for the specific needs for your pet, I would love to spend time playing or just chilling and petting your pet!
“Aramie was great with my 2 pets. They were well loved amen care of for our 15 days away. I would highly recommend Aramie, she keeps you informed and is trustworthy. I cannot thank her enough for giving me a piece of mind while out of the country.”
“It was our first time using Rover. Kerrie came over and met us and out cat, she asked all the right questions and answered all of ours. Kerrie took great care of our senior cat, spending the night, making sure she had her meds and making sure we knew things were fine. We’ll definately ask Kerrie to help us again.”
“Very pleased with Christina and the service she provided. Very reliable and accommodating. My dog, Chase, was comfortable with Christina from the moment he met her. That put my mind at ease and made it so much easier for me to leave my “baby” at home for several days knowing Chase was happy & comfy with Christina. I trust Christina in my home and I trust her with my dog.”

“Patricia did a great job taking care of our pup! They had lots of long walks/hikes and lots of cuddles on the couch. We came back to a very clean house (sheets cleaned without us even asking) and a very happy and tired dog. Totally recommend Patricia!!”
“Kristina went above and beyond to make sure Kiba was well taken care of. She truly cares about all of her animals and she made sure that our dog was comfortable with her tending to him before by spending some time with him prior to the house sitting. This made me feel secure as well that my pet and my home was cared for. I looked forward to the many daily pictures and updates while we were away. I look forward to using her again!”
“We were so anxious about leaving our 2 younger fur babies because we had never left them before and they are pretty attached to us. When she came for an initial visit all of my babies went to her, even my little one that doesn’t take to people. Zarah put our minds at ease about leaving them. She sent photos daily and reassured us they were doing great. She slept in our bed with them so they could keep up their regular routine. We will be using her for future needs.”
“Omg Ben was amazing!!!!! He decided to last minute rearrange his schedule, and dog sit our “zoo” and he went above and beyond our needs. Our home was left better than we left it for him, he went out of his way to do the kindest chores for us, and our dogs were so sad when he left! They didn’t only get the pleasure of spending the weekend with the dog whisperer, but definitely a forever friend for them!!! I know they’ll never forget the massage he gave them!! ❤️ I’d trust Ben with my life probably! He gave our pets massages, he was so kind to inform me about an eye watering situation one of my dogs had. Send me the sweetest pictures and videos, and I just cant begin to put into words the immaculate care and love my fur babies received by him! He is a dog whisperer. Thank you so much Ben for everything!!! Outside the dog note, he even was so nice enough to help deal with the lawn care people that showed up after we left. He is such a stellar, wholesome, human!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roseland
Rose got to meet Fergus, our Blue Heeler, for the first time last week. He put her through her paces with his "dogged" interest in playing catch and she was a real trooper. We thank her for her patience and attentivemness to Fergus. Hope that Rose is resting her pitching arm!
Logan was a great pet/house sitter for us. He bonded immediately with our girl, which turned out to be extremely important as they weathered some pretty noisy thunderstorms together! Logan provided daily updates on their walks and left the house neat and clean. We will use him again.
Daisy seemed to have great care with Derek. He was reliable and came a day early for a meet and greet. He seemed to follow the instructions I left. He was very pleasant and was willing to do what was asked. He also kept us informed and sent lots of pictures. The house was left in great condition. I wouldn't hesitate to have Derek again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Roseland is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $38 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
