“Tara was amazing! You could see right away how much experience she has with dogs and this put me at ease. She was flexible, reliable, and my dog warmed up to her immediately. This brought me such comfort for going away the weekend and I am so grateful!”
“Amber took excellent care of our dogs and our house while we were away! She even managed the Fourth of July fireworks and a few thunderstorms, lol. I had a complete level of trust with her… And will definitely bring her back.”
“Pam was absolutely amazing!! She provided us with frequent updates about our pets and how they were doing. She also sent us pictures. She went above and beyond and we came home from vacation to a very clean house, thanks to her! It was nice to have trust in Pam to care for our pets so we could absolutely relax on vacation. 10/10!!”
“Katie was wonderful! She did a great job and I will definitely have her back to watch my boys next time I go on vacation. My dogs loved her! She is great with dogs! Thank you Katie ?”
“Dustin walks my dog daily, and this was his first time watching him at my place. He did an incredible job and is super flexible and easy to work with. My (giant) dog loves him, and he took great care of the place. Highly recommend.”
“Meredith was an excellent choice. We needed 2 dog sitters at our hotel rooms in Phoenix while attending our son's wedding. Good dog behavior is a must at a hotel and Meredith was able to manage 3 large Labrador Retrievers for 8 hours in a small hotel room, which also required outdoor potty breaks, no small feat! Meredith was prompt, courteous, very personable and professional. Meredith was one of 2 sitters we chose based on Rover feedback. Thanks Again Meredith.”
“Sheryl and her husband were truly OUTSTANDING! They came through for me when I found myself with an 11th hour need, and took excellent care of my 15week puppy over the weekend. They gave her lots of playtime and affection. You can trust Sheryl to take excellent care of your dog.”
About: Calm, direct, structured dog walker/sitter. Strong behavior cue recognition, leash skills, and vet/med/admin experience. Great with larger dogs, seniors, and nervous pets. Daily, I check messages, confirm schedules, and plan calm walks/sitting times. Weekends I block longer visits for feeding/meds and behavior notes, keeping routines consistent and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I keep routines consistent, minimize stress, follow written instructions closely, and do calm, structured walk/feeding/med support. I provide behavior notes and quick check-ins.
“My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!”
About: I have nearly two years of professional experience working as a kennel assistant at two different animal care facilities, where I cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have experience administering medications, monitoring animal health, and confidently handling pets with a wide range of behaviors, including anxious, reactive, and energetic animals. I have also volunteered with cat rescue organizations, helping care for cats and prepare them for adoption into loving homes. As a pet owner myself, I care for one dog, four cats, and a lizard, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, responsibility, and compassion that every pet deserves. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most requests. In a few weeks, I will be starting college to become a veterinary technician. Once classes begin, I will be available after class Monday through Thursday and will have open availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I will do my best to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain your pet’s routine, provide plenty of love and attention, ensure a safe environment, and treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect and care.
“this was my first time using rover and i was nervous, but joanna made the process so easy! she is a very nice person and respectful house guest. she even got my dog to walk nicely on her leash! i was so impressed! i would definitely would recommend joanna to anyone”
“Tristan did an amazing job watching my dog Riley! This was a last minute trip and my dog has chronic health issues (IBD and ear infections). Tristan handled his care perfectly, and he communicated everything in detail! It was such a relief to find a sitter I can fully trust. I couldn’t recommend him more.”
“Sarah was wonderful during her stay with our fur baby, she took good care of him while we were away for the weekend. She left the house also neat and clean! Looking forward to use her services again in future!”
About: I have lived with and been surrounded by dogs and basically all animals for my entire life. I used Rover before and I stopped temporarily due to some career changes. Thank you so much for your consideration! Growing up I had 2 Labrador Retrievers, and now I frequently help care for my aunt's 4 dogs. (Rottweiler, Doberman Pinscher, Maltese mix, and Yorkie) I currently have 3 cats which are both rescues. I'm not limited to caring for only dogs and cats. I've had many different reptiles, rodents, fish, and birds throughout my life, and would feel comfortable caring for any species!
“Kyle was fantastic with our puppy. He is very kind, calm, and built a great bond with her right away. Even though our puppy is still quite energetic, he handled her confidently and kept her well engaged. Communication was excellent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Lou was in great hands. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Charlotte did a great job sitting our pup in our home! She provided updates throughout the day and kept Jackson busy and out of trouble :) Highly responsive and professional. Would definitely recommend caring for your pet!”
About: I have experience with everything from Chihuahuas to Great Danes (and also rabbits and cats). Im willing to walk, play, train and just be there for your fur baby. I also have experience with deaf dogs and am comfortable giving medication if needed. Im currently a self employed travel and nature photographer which gives me the ability to have the time and flexibility to work with your petcare needs. I have a large fenced in yard to exercise your pets in if needed. My favorite thing is going on long walks as well as off leash play and enrichment time.
“Tim did a great job staying overnight two nights caring for our pit bull mix and our cat. He provided updates and photos and our pets were happy when we arrived home. We highly recommend him!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sanatoga
Pam went above and beyond watching our two dogs. She was very attentive while I explained to her our dog’s daily routines and provided excellent communication while we were on our trip. Pam sent numerous updates and videos so we didn’t miss our dogs so much, and she even cleaned up the house while we were gone. I highly recommend booking Pam through Rover if you can!
Betty was amazing with our pack. She sent daily updates and pictures, took care of the house, and cleaned so we wouldn’t have to do anything when we got home. I appreciate knowing that our babies were with someone so caring and attentive and I hope that she will be our sitter for any future trip we need to go on.
Tara raises the bar for pet sitting! She took such good care of our pets and our home while we were away, and was really communicative during our trip. My dog has a nervous personality but she took to Tara right away, and was so calm and happy when we got back. Looking forward to booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sanatoga on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,782 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sanatoga. 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 Sanatoga 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 Sanatoga 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 Sanatoga 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 Sanatoga. 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.
