“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Donna stayed overnight with our cats and dogs and took absolutely amazing care of all of them. She was reliable, kind, attentive, and connected so easily with each of our pets. We have a lot to manage, and we know caring for all of them is no small task, but she handled everything so wonderfully. It was such a comfort knowing they were in such loving and capable hands while we were away. When we came home, the house looked great, and our pets were happy and well cared for. She is truly thoughtful, responsible, and loving, and we would absolutely trust her with our pets again. We highly recommend her!”
“TJ was great! He took care of my two babies with such love and attention. He was at my house when he said he would be and cuddled with my boys to make them feel safe. I would highly recommend TJ to watch your pets!”
About: I've house sat, walked and cared for dogs ever since I was 14. My coworkers, neighbors and their friends are returning customers due to high detailed and enthusiastic care. I always tell people I will take care of your pets faster than your kids lol. Hi im currently working a part time job so depending on my schedule I can spend time with your furry friend before or after my shift. I follow clients pet plans with feedings, walkings and medications if needed. I will work with you on any adjustments you need for your fur baby.
“Rose was so fantastic with my two rescue pups. I have one particularly shy pup, and Rose was patient and gentle while she warmed up. By the end of the stay, both pups were very comfortable with Rose and looking forward to her next sit!”
“Stefanie was amazing to work with! She is great at communicating about how your pets are doing and sends lots of photo updates that will help put your mind at ease while you're away from your pets. A few random issues cropped up with our pets while Stefanie was with them and she was great about keeping us updated, and I was confident that she was taking the best possible care of them. Our dog loved spending a weekend with Stefanie and I'm sure yours will too!”
“Miranda was an awesome and calm dog sitter for our high strung Jack Russell for a weekend. She is a responsible person and excellent communicator. She came to meet us and followed all the instructions for feeding, walks and getting in and out of the house. Our dog was happy and I would highly recommend her!”

“Shelby was excellent with our dog. She asked plenty of questions to make sure she took the best care of Bella, sent us plenty of updates, and made sure Bella was comfortable at all times. We came home to a very happy pup. Would definitely recommend Shelby.”
“Christine bailed us out at the last minute and totally saved us. She was just great, and I think our cats even decided they like her better than they like us. Couldn't be happier that we have made this connection.”
“We reached out to Angie to house sit our two older pups while we were away for a week on a family trip. The dogs have never stayed with anyone outside of family and friends, so we were a little nervous, especially with one of our dogs having some anxiety. Because of this, we were trying to avoid any kennels. Angie was quick to respond to messages leading up to our departure and even offered to come meet the pups twice before our trip. She did not need to do this, but it meant a lot to us that she did. The dogs warmed up to her immediately. Angie is friendly, responsive, and caring. Our house was just as we had left it. She even cared for our small flock of chickens while we were away. We will be reaching out to Angie again and would recommend her to anyone who’s looking for help with their pets.”
About: I excel at making dogs feel calm and like their owners never even left the house. Learning their schedules, quirks, and favorite walking spots helps me make them feel comfortable for extended stays. Energetic puppy? I’ll run around w them and tire them out. Senior dog? We can relax and go at their pace. What sets me apart is my intuition and caring heart. I have a flexible, remote job so I am able to stay with your pet as long as needed through the day and take them on frequent walks in the neighborhood good or to the dog park! I do live-in dogsitting/housesitting at the client’s house. I like to learn about your dog (how they like to play, chill, etc..) so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible.
About: If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), running the trails, and swimming in a Lake will happen every day. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. I have a very open schedule. Usually I go to the park go with my family who enjoy the day doing things outside the house. If you have a last minute appointment or you need anything on the same day I do take them I have a very open schedule one works in the morning and the other one works in the afternoon so your pet will never be alone. I had pets before they pass away. We used to love our pets so much. We took CPR classes and emergency classes for pets just in case.
“Arsen and Sophia did a great job. They communicated well, sent funny pics and we returned to a calm dog who clearly liked them and was sad to see them leave. House was clean. Would hire them again anytime.”
“Leslie responded to my request quickly, asked the right questions, and was communicative throughout the sit. She was friendly, listened well, and interacted calmly and assertively with my reactive dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving them in her care for a night out. They were happy and tired when I returned and I was grateful that she spent time engaging them in my absence! I would certainly recommend her and would want to work with her again if I am in the area in the future.”
“Allie was great! She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos of all my dogs. She truly went above and beyond in every sense to make sure my dogs were well cared for and was attentive to every little detail. I would absolutely recommend Allie to anyone. I really felt good that my dogs were in good hands all day.”
About: I have been around dogs all my life. I have a 7 year old aussie/husky named Foster. He is extremely person and dog friendly. I look forward to taking care of your pet. I am available for weekend adventures with your pet(s). My own dog is high energy and enjoys long adventures in the Hudson valley so we are familiar with the area. I have a dog that is very friendly and who likes to play with other dogs but also respects boundaries. We do a lot of obedience training during the day to earn our treats.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Salt Point on Rover is $39.64 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 682 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Salt Point. 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 Salt Point 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 Salt Point 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 Salt Point 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 Salt Point. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
