“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our dog Poppyseed. It was our first time using her and she went above and beyond. We received lots of updates and photos, always quick to respond, reliable, and trustworthy. I would use Sarah again and will recommend her to friends :).”
“Emily did an awesome job watching our home and Piper for us. She did a meet and greet, got the lay of our home and pet sitting needs, asked good questions before we left town and she even sent us photos of a hike. Emily was always super responsive and flexible. 5 stars! Thank you Emily!”
About: I’m semi-retired and love to fill my time with animals and other caregiving services. I often drop-in services and overnight care. I believe in great communication and making you feel comfortable when trusting your fur-babies to me I grew up caring for birds, dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs. I have a very flexible schedule and will work as best I can around your needs for animal care. I will work with you to make sure you’re happy with the time and attention your animal(s) will receive. Including pictures and updates I understand how hard it can be to let caregivers I to your home and will do everything possible to make sure you’re comfortable with me. And your animals get all the attention they deserve.
“Haley was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Penny! From the beginning, communication was clear, friendly, and prompt. She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She arrived on time, followed all instructions perfectly, and left everything spotless. Penny clearly loved spending time with her. I could tell she was well cared for and happy when I got back. I wouldn't hesitate to book Haley again.”
About: I have taken care of animals for family and friends for a few years now and want to expanded into caring into looking after the pets if other family’s that want to travel but unfortunately cannot bring their animals with them. I currently work in a restaurant as a line cook and have 5-8 hour days starting as early as 2pm and ending as late as 10pm so I am able to mostly do morning care and late night care but I can adjust my schedule as needed for emergency’s. I am able to adapt to any type of care needed including daily training or cleanup if needed and love to take my own dogs on walks and just relax with them when they are tired.
“Carolyn is the absolute best! She loves and treats our Lily as if she were her own and we couldn't be more grateful to have found her. Complete peace of mind while we were gone and she constantly kept us updated with photos and videos.”
“Hi highly recommend Becca, she's very personable and she had to end up staying a little longer than we expected and she had no problem accommodating us, and most importantly my 2 dogs loved her,”
About: What sets me apart is my versatile experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Beyond daily care and managing my own two-year-old Siberian mix, Jiaozi, I specialize in positive reinforcement training for puppies and administering gentle, patient care for senior animals. As a doctoral student, my schedule offers a great deal of flexibility, making it easy to seamlessly integrate pet care into my day. My daily routine is already anchored by morning and evening care for my two-year-old Siberian mix, Jiaozi. Because I spend a significant amount of time studying and working from home, I can comfortably accommodate midday dog walks, frequent potty breaks, and consistent feeding schedules while providing plenty of companionship. Whether in your home or mine, safety and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow your instructions regarding feeding, walking, and house rules to ensure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment. I also treat your space with the utmost respect and keep it clean. In my own home, I maintain a calm and safe atmosphere. I have a two-year-old Siberian mix named Jiaozi, so any visiting pets will have careful, supervised introductions, and I can easily separate spaces if needed to ensure everyone remains comfortable and stress-free. No matter the location, I always send plenty of photo and text updates so you can have complete peace of mind.
About: I grew up taking full responsibility for my two dogs, handling their daily feeding, walks, playtime, and overall care. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Friends often trust me to look after their dogs when they need help, and I treat every dog as if it were my own with patience, attention, and lots of care Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available all day during the week as well as on weekends, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I live close to a park, which allows for regular outdoor walks and exercise. I’m very careful during walks and always stay alert to my surroundings to ensure pets are safe and comfortable at all times
About: Hi all! Thanks for taking the time to view my profile! Some of my experience includes in-home sitting for various dogs for multiple years, fostering with Boot n' Kit Canine Rescue with over 16 8-week-old puppies, fostering with Buddy's Second Chance Rescue for dogs newborn-senior, and volunteering in general with Buddy's Second Chance Rescue. I also come from a long line of vets and vet techs, which makes me confident. I adopted my own dog in April of 2022 (whom is a great foster sibling!) so all inquiries must be comfortable with a well trained 40lb resident dog. Please message me with any questions, I am super flexible and willing to accommodate! I currently work a hybrid position, allowing me to take Rover Requests on most days! I am hopeful my availability will increase in the future! Dogs ARE allowed in my apartment, and I have paid all fees incase of any damage. Your pup will stay leashed outside of unit. Depending on the dogs size, age, temperament, etc., we have various equipment of our own including a crate (s), play pen, toys, dishes, blankets, beds, etc. My commitment to your dog includes care, but additional love and affection as well. I do photography on the side, and your dog is guaranteed to be a model!

I would love to sit for your cat or dog while you enjoy time away!! I manly handle weekend getaways or short trips! We can work out a flexible price that works for the both of us! I’ll meet you where you’re at. I will be free most of the time during the summer from May-September! I love when my pets sleep with me, cuddle and love to play! I cannot get enough belly rubs or tug of war time with my pups and quiet lap time and zoomies with my kitties! I will make sure your pup or kitty is enriched at all times while maintaining a healthy balance of rest and hydration.
“Monica and Matilda were absolutely wonderful. They went beyond to ensure my dog, Asher and cat Cappuccino were well taken care of and sent me regular photos of both to keep me informed. The house was also clean and picked up so nicely. I’m so thankful to have had them stay at our home to house/pet sit!”
About: I grew up on a farm in Florida, so I’ve been around a variety of animals. For three years I worked at a doggy daycare where I supervised many different ages and breeds in large groups while casually training them. I am a foster home for dogs as well. I am a nursing student part time, so I have plenty of hours throughout the week to care for your furry friends! I would be happy to work around schedules to make sure I am able to help you out! I have a pretty large fenced in yard and another very friendly dog as well. She loves to play but is respectful if your pet does not. She takes social cues from other dogs well. I also have a large crate if necessary
About: I care genuinely for all pets. I have a great deal of experience in my own home or yours. Love and safety are my specialty. I have a full time job. Sometimes I am gone for 8 total hours but most of the time I can come home for lunch mid day and drop in visits as I work for myself and am always in the area. I have a fenced and gated yard. Your dog has the ability to come and go into the yard at all times while I’m home. My gate also locks and if you’re comfortable after seeing my yard setup I can also lock the gate and let your dog go in and out of my house throughout the day while I’m gone too.
About: I’ve owned 3 pets of my own and trained them all as puppies. I’m very one on one with pets as I have a lot of extra time to offer. I am a full time animal nanny for my friends. A dogs typical day here whether it’s an overnight stay or daycare is ALWAYS fun! Pictures and updates will be given at least 1 time a day of your fur baby! Lots of supervised outside playtime in my large fenced in yard with bouncy balls and sticks! Potty time is every 3 hours unless a very young puppy (every hr or so). Playtime in the house is always supervised. Puppy safe and older dog safe with nothing laying on the ground other than dog toys when it’s playtime which is always haha. Fresh water is ALWAYS available! My priority is keeping every dog safe as possible. I also do grooming, deshedding, and even blow-outs! It’s all second nature to me. I can complete all this during their booked stay with me. Let’s have some fun! Dogs are family and should be treated as so. They will get lots of love and attention with lots of one on one time with me! I have a large yard with a fenced 6 ft privacy fence along with two friendly Pug fur babies to keep your baby company. If you would like to have your dog separate for any reason that is possible too. My house is very dog friendly and accommodating for any dogs needs.

About: As long as I can remember I’ve taken care of pets of my own and others. From dogs and cats to lizards and birds, I’ve learned a lot from years of animals being by my side. That’s why from dog walks to overnight stays, your pets are in safe, loving hands-24/7, 365 days a year. I have plenty of free time to keep any pets enriched and well cared for when you cannot. Life can be busy but I like to spend time making others happy, especially animals! I live with a large family and with my cat, Coco. I feed her 1/2 a cup of dry food in 3 meals as she is an indoor cat and often she will be given wet food as well. I enjoy keeping my friend as happy and healthy as possible since she’s like my own child.

The average cost of House Sitting in Sand Hill is $75 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $70 and $79 per night.

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 Sand Hill 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 Sand Hill 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 Sand Hill 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sand Hill. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
