“Kendall really took great care of our 3 pets(1dog & cats). We had gone out for 5days, she stayed at our home and took amazing care of our pets. She even took the garbage out without us mentioning it on the garbage day. I would highly recommend her without any doubt and will definitely contact her for our future petsitting needs.”
“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!”
“Jennifer was amazing with our old boy! She provided thorough and timely updates, I never had to wonder how Pugsley was doing and if he was behaving. We came home to a tidy home and a very happy dog! We can’t wait to have the opportunity to work with Jennifer again.”
“You know you have a good sitter when you aren’t stressed about your pups while you are away from home. Ashley was great, checked in prior to stay to confirm details, sent updates with pics and kept us informed while we were away for the weekend. Having 2 senior dogs is no joke and Ashley handled them fantastically.”
“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!”
“Caroline did a great job taking care of our animals. Our dog has special needs and at times it can be quite challenging - I was really impressed with how well she was able to care for him. She is gentle, thoughtful, and kind. Definitely going to be asking her to come back again. Thanks Caroline!”
“Wonderful experience with Kaylee! We could not have asked for a more responsive and caring sitter. She provided many photos and updates while we were away. We came back to a spotless home and happy dog ☺️”
“Lauriel, Thank you so much for taking care of my furry babies this weekend! You have been the best puppy sitter I have gotten from this app! Thanks again, and we hope to see you soon! Alba”
“Ray is amazing! Any fur baby would be lucky to have her as a sitter. Our senior pup, Ralphie, fell in love with her! She lovingly cared for him and even sent us updates and photos while we were away. She was very professional and we would never hesitate leaving our dog with her again!”
“Rhianna was great house sitting for our 7 month old puppy. She responded quickly to my request and suggested a meet and greet. She arrived promptly for the meet up and on the day of service. We will definitely use her again!”
“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.”
“Renee was awesome. She took care of our 2 dogs at our home while we were away. Our doggies loved her! She’ll be our first one to contact whenever the same situation occurs again. A million thanks to her!”
“Deepthi was wonderful with our pup while we were away! Deepthi was easy to communicate with and gave us lots of updates. We felt great knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d highly recommend Deepthi!”
“Ida was simply outstanding during her house sitting service, which included four overnights. She kept us informed with plenty of photos (and videos). Most importantly she cared for our almost 2 year old medium bernedoodle like he was her own, be it the walks, play time, feeding, and daily RX. She kept great care of the home keeping things very clean and tidy in our absence. I would highly recommend for any service and it is truly apparent she absolutely loves being around dogs.”
“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.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roselle
We couldn't have asked for a better house/pet-sitting experience! Philip immediately put us at ease during our meet-and-greet, and our two dogs warmed up to him right away. We booked him to stay at our house while we were out of town for a week, and now that we're home, we have nothing but great things to say. Philip sent daily updates with lots of fun details and great photos, and it was obvious he was incredibly attentive to our dogs' needs. He was always quick to respond to messages and was very accommodating when our travel plans changed and we ended up returning a day earlier than expected. We left plenty of detailed instructions about both the dogs and the house, and it was clear that Philip paid attention to every detail. Our dogs can be challenging to walk because of leash reactivity, but Philip understood their behavior and managed them perfectly. Our young husky mix is strong, has a very high prey drive, and loves to jump the fence, but Philip made sure he didn’t escape. He even watered our flowers and garden beds during a heat wave, which absolutely saved them. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs and a house that was just as we left it made the end of our trip that much better. Philip was perfect and being able to trust that our house and pets were being well-cared-for allowed us to fully relax on our family vacation. We would not hesitate to book him again!
Oliwia sat for our 14 year old dog for 5 days who has anxiety when we are gone for a long time. She stayed at our house and met with us to go over his information before we left. He had just been diagnosed with a condition that causes him to get up a few times at night and now take medication. She was very confident and handled it all great. I received many daily pictures and could see how relaxed and happy he was. I would highly recommended using her and would use her again.
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.

- 93% 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.
