“Jen was such a pleasure to have over to take care of our dogs while we were gone for a long weekend. She followed all care directions perfectly, and the dogs really loved her. She was extremely communicative and sent tons of updates throughout. I would recommend Jen's services to anyone, and will definitely be using her again!”
“Having Gabriella watch my dogs was a wonderful experience! She was very communicative, great with the dogs, and I felt very comfortable leaving them with her! Would definitely recommend using her services!”
“This was my first time leaving Greta in my house with a sitter from Rover, so I was a little nervous. There was absolutely no need, as Crystal was amazing and surpassed my expectations. I could tell right away that Greta really liked her, and based on the pictures I received, Greta was having a blast and was very well taken care of. I also loved how Crystal cleaned up and kept everything how I’d left it. Much appreciated after coming home from a long travel day! Would absolutely use Crystal again!”
“Bethany was wonderful for our first time working with her! She was a great communicator and sent lots of photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. She did everything we asked and we came home to a clean house and happy pets. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands :)”
“We had such a great experience with Stella! She was communicative, attentive, and took wonderful care of our dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again and would highly recommend her!”
About: I've housesat and taken care of dogs for friends and family members since I was a kid. I've been told I have an energy that animals really respond to. I can no longer have a pet of my own, and I miss my dog every day, I just want to be around dogs again, and help out pet parents. I just opened a bar on my own so it is practically impossible for me to have a dog full time, but my schedule is also flexible enough where I could make sure to give a lot of attention to a dog on a part time basis. I am happy to watch a dog at your home or mine, I have a fenced yard and plenty of parks and trails nearby to walk around.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, whether they’re my own, pets I’ve cared for at shelters, or pets I’ve sat for through friends and family. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of available time to provide your pets with loving, attentive, and personalized care! I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate special instructions and make sure every pet feels cared for, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 10 years, mostly my own (now senior) dogs. I also had a dog who was special needs (partially blind and deaf), and unfortunately passed 3 years ago. I am always open to taking care of your pets! I’m normally the most free every day but Wednesday and do not mind spending the night with your pets! I cannot currently house pets in my own home, but I’m always free to stay at your home! I drive, so only staying for a few hours at a time is also okay. Since I have senior dogs, they often “forget” they went outside, so frequent potty breaks (including in the night) is a must. I also give my dogs medication, so if your pup needs oral medication, I am 100% okay with that.
About: I have had dogs since I was 6, taken care of them my whole life, but don’t have one of my own currently sadly. I want to get a dog within the next year so would to take care of yours while I am interviewing from home! I work from home for now, interviewing for residencies, with lots of time to take pets out throughout the day. I go on long walks and runs on my own daily so will keep your pet happy and active! I love caring for pets, petting and cuddling with them, taking them on long walks, and playing with them indoors while I am sitting around.
“Andrea watched our lab and two cats while we were gone for a couple of nights. They were in amazing hands! Knowing our boys were being so well cared for meant we could actually relax on our trip. She’s an amazing communicator and sends the best pictures. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter. Thank you so much, Andrea!”
About: I grew up on a farm raising all kinds of animals. I have been the resident pet sitter in my family and small town since I was a teenager. I am an animal biologist, comfortable and experienced with all taxa! I am currently working part time and will have ample free time during the winter months to be a helping hand for pet parents in need. I am a great communicator and like to update pet parents throughout my stays. I have a keen attention to detail and will follow any specific instructions required.
About: I have taken care of older dogs mostly. I can help accommodate their needs from ramps, special food (farmers dog), medicine, and much more besides. I will be working part time on Rover as I will be doing a second job as well. Scheduling wise I can work late mornings from 10am to the evening around 5pm. I have experience with giving pets medicine and helping the older ones up ramps along with keeping a close eye on any dietary specifications that the owner informs me about.
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”
“Jailen took the best care of our sweet girl and kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay. She was communicative, kept me in the loop with a little scare, and kept the house tidy. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“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!”
About: I’ve never not had a pet in my house. From dogs to cats to hamsters to fish to rabbits to guinea pigs, I have taken care of them all. My own cat is the light of my life and I bring that same level of care when I watch other people’s pets. I work in office M,T,W,F from 8:30-4:30. I am remote on Thursdays. I have a lunch break everyday so I can do a lunch time potty break or check-in in addition to an after work walk/check-in/potty break/play time. I’m pretty available on weekends as well for walks and check-ins. I work remote on Thursdays so I can work from home with your fur baby. (I live with my sister who works remote so my kitty isn’t by herself) I can crate your dog if needed. I can check on them at lunch time on the days I work in office. I make sure to provide play time/stimulation/walks. I can also administer medicine if needed.
“Adrienne was fantastic with our large furbaby. He is an anxious soul, but did well with her and seemed happy and content with her. She was very professional and courteous and set our minds at ease as well as allowed us to enjoy time away from him with no worries. I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Edith is a very conscientious young woman. She takes care of pets as though they are her own! You can count on her good judgment to handle any issues with the pets or even house issues. We feel blessed to have found her!!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Saint Bernard is $49
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Bernard
Mackenzie was wonderful and we felt so comfortable leaving our pups with her. She had great communication and was very caring to them while we were gone. One of our dogs had an anxious episode and Mackenzie was very calm and attentive to him making sure he was comfortable. She provided several photo and video updates so we knew how they were the whole time we were gone. They were in great hands so we will definitely book Mackenzie again in the future!
This was my first time using Rover to help me find someone to watch my Doberman. He is high energy and Christine did a phenomenal job making sure he was taken well care of and she gave him all his medicine he needed! When I came home from my short trip my house was in order and blankets were folded. The extra steps she took we very helpful. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have their dog watched and I will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Christine! - Tara and Raja
Crystal was absolutely fabulous; she went above and beyond to provide phenomenal care for our Golden. Crystal is conscientious, thorough, and very competent. She doted on Dawson throughout the days she stayed in our home, sent constant updates and photos and kept our very energetic pup entertained. Crystal was a very courteous house guest as well. I highly recommend Crystal .
Hadley was amazing!! She went above and beyond helping me with Beau - she was willing to move her work schedule around to make sure Beau got his medication without any issues, she was super communicative and sent me pictures/updates daily, and took great care of my house! I typically leave Beau with family/friends but will definitely be rebooking with Hadley in the future if she is available, I cannot say enough great things!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Saint Bernard is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 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.

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 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.
