“Kathleen watched our pup for a week (our longest time away yet). Our pup was around 9 months old at the time, so despite the extra work that comes with a younger dog, we were very comfortable and reassured while away! She sent daily updates + photos, and we know our girl was cared for like she was her own. Kathleen also fed our fish and left the house in great shape, which we greatly appreciated. Would happily book her again for any future sittings!”
“Levi was great! My dog, Bella seemed to warm up to him immediately during our meet and greet which helped ease my anxiety as I was leaving the country for 10 days! He was great with communication and I will definitely use Levi again!”
“Crystal spent 5 days watching our dog and cat in our home and went above and beyond. Our girls are a little high maintenance and she made sure they were well taken care for, maybe even better than we do! She gave us updates daily with pictures and we could tell they were comfortable with her. She took our dog on walks daily (which wasn’t required) and snuggled with our girls often. She left our house cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be booking with Crystal again. Highly recommend!”
“Gabby was great with our dog, she took great care of him and our house! The house was spotless on our return, and our normally anxious dog seemed as happy as usual which was a relief for us. She was very quick with communicating, we would definitely have Gabby sit for us again.”
“Katie was great taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She showed up when she said she would, spent some quality time with him, and sent plenty of pictures and status updates. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Max has been so happy to have Bethany stay with while I'm on vacation. He's a spoiled boy when she's around, that's for sure! He gets so many walks and adventures and attention and I come home to happy dog and a clean house. I will absolutely use Bethany again next time we're in town!!”
About: You can count on me to treat your pet like another member of my family. Growing up on a farm exposed me to animals of all sizes from an early age and gave me a deep love for them. We always had dogs and cats, plus other animals. Because of this, I am comfortable administering medications to your pets and ensuring they get the love and attention you are looking for. I've had my rescue Pit, Rusty, for the past 5 years, and I love being a dog dad. I am a bit of a runner, so I am happy to take on high-energy dogs, whether that is for a longer walk or a good run. I am looking forward to helping you with your pet's needs and working toward being their new best friend! I currently work remotely as a freelancer and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule both during the day and evenings. I can host most weekends and live down from Eden Park. I'll do my best to work around your pet's needs and routine to meet you where you are! I believe in following what works best for your pet and reinforcing any behaviors/training you are currently working on with them. I also believe every pet should be loved and spoiled just like any family member. My day job is communications and marketing, so you can expect regular and consistent updates from me.
“Ann has always been great with my girls! She watched them a few years ago and has recently returned to keep them again. We will definitely continue using her! She always communicates and sends pictures often!”
“Brooke was fantastic with our two dogs and took great care of our house while we were away. Great communication and beautiful update photos. Really appreciated the assistance and we will definitely be a repeat booker. Thank you Brooke!”
About: I have taken care of many kinds of animals from guinea pigs to hedge hogs and naturally cats and dogs. I have been an unofficial pet sitter for friends and work colleagues for the past 6 years. I’m recently retired with no pets but I would really like to get my “pet fix” by helping to care for your pet(s). I’ll happily care for your cats and dogs by giving them what they need: food, water, treats, and lots of love and attention while you are gone. I’m recently retired and looking for a way to give back or help others. I’m also unable to have pets in my home due to unforeseen circumstances. So, I would enjoy spending time helping you while I’m enjoying your beloved pet. I have flexibility with scheduling. I can take your dog for walk and feed them when needed. I’m available for watching your pet over the weekend at your place of residence. I can spend time walking and giving the needed attention your beloved pet needs. I given medicine to many dogs and can put your animal back in its crate when needed. I prefer to provide care at your residence. I have references available.
“Cecilia is a great dogsitter! She’s very communicative, which helped me to feel at ease leaving my dog with her while I was gone. She followed all of the instructions I left and took great care of Murph and my apartment.”
“I would highly recommend Andrea. Andrea is an amazing pet sitter. She’s a great communicator, and she’s never given us reason to worry about her arriving on time or leaving early. Andrea has stayed in our home several days now and leaves little to no trace that she was there. Our animals love her and she follows all my notes, so they get the best care when I’m away. Because of Andrea, I can take guilt- and worry-free trips.”
“Excellent Dogsitter-watched our two dogs in our home. Very responsive and sent updates regarding the dogs while we were away. Made sure the dogs got plenty of exercise. Will be a repeat customer!”
“Patrice was fantastic housesitting for our elderly dog and young pup for a week. They had great care and Patrice kept us well-informed when one of the dogs didn’t seem to feel well for a day or so. It was a great comfort to have someone who cares so much about animals and their well-being looking after the dogs while we were away!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my parents believed that helping care for pets was an important way to build responsibility, so animals have always been a part of my life, and I’ve truly never gone without having a pet in my home. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping care for animals of all ages and needs, including temporary foster pets, senior pets, and pets with special needs. I’m comfortable supporting animals who require medications, extra patience, mobility accommodations, and individualized routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, quiet companionship, or needs a little extra support, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would give my own. I’m an occupational therapist at a nursing home in Cincinnati! My work schedule is flexible for me as I need to be. I don’t work weekends! I live in an apartment with a fenced yard area. I have a friendly dog that is crated when I’m not home. I have a cat who is friendly!
“Jessalyn is amazing! She worked with us when we needed to extend our trip and went above and beyond with our apartment and our dog. Beanie was so calm and content when we got back!! Thank you!!!”
“Lux was an amazing house and pet sitter for us!!! He sent photos and updates every day and knowing he was in our home put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely ask him to stay here again in the future.”
“Emily was a great sitter! She house sat for us over the holiday weekend and I came home to a very happy dog :) She was great with communication (and left the house very clean!) would definitely work with her again and recommend. Thank you!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Bernard
Brooke was absolutely wonderful! My dog can be a nervous gentleman, and he took to Brooke immediately during both the intro visit and when they arrived prior to our deprture. They were on time, communicative, flexible, and thoughtful in their care of my big man. They sorted through all of my doofus' oddities with ease. I feel *so* fortunate to have found them and look forward to being able to travel in the future knowing Marv is in the best hands!
Carson was great with our golden retriever puppy, Wilson! He was super responsive and frequently sent me photo updates during his stay. We were so lucky to have found Carson for our last minute trip out of town - I know Wilson had a great time and would highly recommend booking with him!
Timely communication, knowledgeable and accommodating! Brooklyn saved the day caring for my terriers while I had a family engagement. I was in from out of town and she made sure that my boys were well cared for in a city where I didn’t know anyone. She let me know what was happening, was flexible and kind. I can’t recommend her more highly!
Highly recommended! Teagan did a fantastic job taking care of our house with 2 dogs and 2 cats. Including 1 very high energy dog! She went above and beyond, kept us updated frequently, and made sure all 4 pets had plenty of attention and their needs met. Thanks so much!
Nikka was a life saver and came to our rescue when another sitter cancelled last minute. Nikka stayed with our special needs senior dog and took amazing care of her and was extremely attentive and gave her the special attention she needed! Nikka was aLeo amazing at sending updates and being responsive which is always super important to me! We also came home to clean house and happy dog. Thanks so much for everything Nikka, we would absolutely love to have you back anytime! You’re the best!
Libby was great. She came over for a meet and greet and was thoughtful during my trip - sending pictures & being flexible when my flight home got delayed. I never felt like I couldn’t get in touch while I was gone and appreciate how she took care of my home and dog!

FAQs for House Sitting - Saint Bernard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Saint Bernard on Rover is $36.63 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 1,393 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Saint Bernard. 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 Saint Bernard 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 Saint Bernard 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 Saint Bernard 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
