“Kendall is an amazing dog sitter!! One of our dogs Siah is very protective and has lot of anxiety but she got along with Kendall very quickly. Kendall is also helpful and flexible. Koro seemed to get bit by a mosquito and she was ready to go get Benadryl and a cone as needed. She cares for your dogs like her own, follows any instructions you provide to the tee. Would definitely hire again!”
“Loved the duo teamwork. Took good care of my pooches and my home. My dogs immediately took to them upon meeting them. Also, I think they left my home cleaner when they left! Bonus! Would definitely use their services again. 🌼🐩”
“Skyler was wonderful! She was here for our Poppy girl every night and kept as close to her routine as possible. We will definitely be reaching out to Skyler again for future stays!”
“While I expected the same level of communication initiated by other rover sitters, I came home to a well cared for dog and cat. I don't know how she feels about them, if she liked being with them or not, but I would trust her again.”
“Ashley house sat for us for 5 days. She's easy to work with, communicates clearly and frequently, and took great care of both the pets and the house. Most importantly, my dog and cat both love her!”
“My cats and I think Faatima is absolutely fantastic! She is Reliable, great communicator, very caring trustworthy just absolutely fantastic! It is always such a treat when she can watch my fur babies! My cats are always so calm when I come home after she’s been here! I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again!”
“Kaylee was wonderful pet sitting for us while we were gone on a long weekend trip. We got consistent updates, pictures, and we felt extremely comfortable with her. We absolutely recommend her and will happily use her services again.”
About: I have experience with all sizes of dogs and cats and I have plenty of time and energy to spend on your furry family members! I am currently between jobs so I'm happy to stay at your place and give your pet plenty of walks, love, and attention. I can accommodate specific walking and feeding times as well. I cannot host pets in my home because I have pets of my own, but I have house-sat and pet-sat for plenty of friends over the years!
“Maria did a wonderful job taking care of Hazel and my two cats. She sent lots of pictures and daily updates, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my pets. Thank you!!”
“Lauriel is very responsible with Archie. She is communicative, prompt, respectful and always available. She respects my home, and genuinely cares for Archie. She sends me pictures and updates and checks in on him on days she is not with him. She is quick to respond and always willing to help me out!”
“Mya did an excellent job caring for our dog! She was incredibly kind and patient with our shy pup, making him feel comfortable and secure. She kept us updated and sent us multiple photos throughout her stay. Her professionalism extended to taking great care of our home as well. We felt completely at ease leaving both our dog and our house in her hands. We will definitely reach out to Mya again in the future!”
“We had an awesome experience with Kinery! From the moment she arrived, she was warm, friendly, and so respectful of our home. She sent us regular updates (which we loved), was perfectly on time for everything, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Our dogs were relaxed, happy, and acting like they’d just had their own little staycation when we got home. It’s such a relief to find someone we trust, and we’d absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Annika & Grant did a great job house sitting our senior dog. They took the time to learn about his special needs. They checked in regularly and made him feel really comfortable.”
“Romana is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of both my home and Harvey while I was away. I came home to happy, relaxed pet and a spotless house. She gave regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind during my trip. I couldn’t recommend Romana more for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Philip is the kindest and most dependable pet sitter! He took excellent care of our Great Dane over a long weekend. From the questions he asked during our first meeting, it was clear that Phil is the kind of sitter who makes a real effort to befriend and understand the needs of every pet he cares for. To anyone who wants to rest assured that their pets are getting all the love and care they deserve while you’re away, my husband and I cannot recommend Phil highly enough.”
“I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roselle
Philip took care of my dogs like they were his own. He was patient, attentive, and incredibly respectful of their routines and personalities. One of my dogs can be a little anxious, and Philip handled that with calm reassurance and experience. I got thoughtful updates, photos, and honest communication the whole time. It’s rare to find someone you can trust fully with your pets, but Philip is absolutely one of those people. I’m grateful for the peace of mind he gave me.
We just loved Kristina. She was so good with our fur babies. We received pics/updates daily. The meet and greet went well and the booking process was easy. Kristina is a good communicator and replies right back. We felt at ease and will be using her services again.
Marina was so great with my dogs! I have 4 medium to XL dogs that are well mannered but can be a handful. She handled all of their personalities and sent detailed updates and photos throughout the visit. We will definitely reach out to her again for our next trip! We are so relieved to find a sitter!
We had the absolute best experience with Michaela and truly can’t recommend her enough. We were out of town for our wedding, and knowing our two dogs were in such caring, capable hands gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond in every way—taking our dogs on runs to keep them active and happy, sending us frequent pictures and videos so we could stay connected, and even taking the time to vacuum and keep our home clean while we were away. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch, especially during such a busy and meaningful time in our lives. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares, not just about pets but about the people they’re helping, too. We came home to two very happy, well-exercised dogs and a spotless house. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust her again without hesitation!

FAQs for House Sitting - Roselle
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Roselle 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 8,429 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roselle. 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 Roselle 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 Roselle 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 Roselle 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 Roselle. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
