“Sammy stayed at my house for 4 nights, taking care of my senior cat and energetic dog. She gave them lots of love and attention and made sure to get my dog out for long walks. I felt comfortable with her at my house and will definitely use her again!”
“I just had experience with Katie who stayed at the house and watched the pups! She is great and absolutely no complaints and the pups enjoyed her as well. Definitely recommend!!”
“Kirk took great care of our dogs and house while we were out of town. They seemed content upon our return and everything was in order. He communicated well and sent some pics during our trip. Would absolutely hire again!”
“Meisha did a wonderful job with our pups! She house-sat for us for a few days. House looks good and the dogs are very happy! She was great about sending pictures and updates. Our dog is really high energy and nothing was destroyed so that says a lot! She was very responsible. Would definitely use her again!”
“Ashlie was so great!!! She kept us updated and our dogs really had a good time. She takes amazing photos and really does her best to make sure the dogs feel loved. I would love to recommend her to anyone.”
“Michelle watched our little Yorkie and stayed at our home for a week. She met with us beforehand and asked great questions. Michelle kept us updated with reports, photos and videos. We were very comfortable and confident that things were well looked after while we were gone. I highly recommend Michelle and look forward to having her stay at our home again.”
“If I could give Robin 10 stars I would. Robin took such good care of my dog, followed all of my instructions, and went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate her efforts, her professionalism, and her genuine, caring nature. I highly recommend Robin.”
“Anna is delightful and we are so glad to have found her. Our dogs were comfortable with her immediately She is responsible and a great communicator. She left our home in great shape- above and beyond Definitely 5 stars!”
“Christina did a fantastic job watching Hank and Milo. She followed my instructions to a tee and I came back to a spotless house and very happy pups. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Kaitlyn watched Coco and Charlie and I’m honestly someone who doesn’t trust people easily, especially when it comes to my dogs. Both of them need meds and have their own quirks, so it’s not simple. She handled everything so well. I didn’t have to worry or check in constantly, which says a lot for me. They were calm, cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. You can tell she actually pays attention and cares, not just going through the motions. I’d have her watch them again without hesitation!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Bryan who took care of our dog for a week in our home. He was incredibly responsible, kept us updated, and our dog was completely happy and well-cared for when we returned. Highly recommend his services!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Not a day has gone by that I've never been around a pet. I even take care of my friend's pets at college when I can! Pet care fits perfectly into my summer routine! I’m free to spend time with your pets, whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just giving them some love and attention. It’s the ideal way for me to enjoy my summer while taking care of your furry friends! I prioritize safety and trust by ensuring a calm, pet-friendly environment. Whether in your home or mine, I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they feel loved and safe while you’re away.
“Betty was an amazing dog sitter for our senior Great Dane, Daphne. She was incredibly professional and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. Each day, she gave us detailed updates of Daphne's day, which included beautiful photos of Daphne. We always looked forward to getting these fun updates every day! Betty went above and beyond with Daphne's care, and left our house cleaner than before we left. We would absolutely have Betty back to dog sit again in the future! Thanks, Betty!!”
“Aubee was amazing! She was on time, she sent photo updates, she kept us updated on how Kūmo was doing throughout our vacation so we did not have to worry about him. She left the house looking great! She cleaned up after Kūmo in the yard. She even made us cookies. She is the absolute sweetest! I would highly recommend her and plan to use her again as much as she is available. Thanks Aubee!!”
“Kelly was an outstanding house sitter. She handled our dogs who were sick unbelievably well and we feel so fortunate to have had her watching the dogs. We have an older dog that required a fair amount of medication management. She allowed us to have a stress free vacation and for that we are so grateful. We highly recommend Kelly.”

Ashlie & Tyson were absolutely fabulous with our boy Blue. Ashlie was so communicative with us the entire time we were gone, sending us updates and photos, and our boy was so well taken care of and happy when we got back. They also took care of our house and we came home to everything clean and tidy! Will definitely book them again for our next trip!
Dylan is fantastic! Daisy normally takes several days to warm up to a new sitter — she'll hide out in our room and barely eat or drink during that adjustment period. That wasn't the case at all with Dylan. She was completely at home with him from day one, and it was so nice getting pictures of her being her normal, happy self so early on. While we were away, Daisy wasn't stressed, and there wasn't a single accident in the house. Since we've been back, she's been totally herself — no clinginess, no signs of anxiety, nothing to work through. On top of all that, the house looked great when we got home, and Dylan was communicative and easy to work with the whole time. We'd recommend him without hesitation and will definitely be booking him again!
If I could give Robin 10 stars I would. Robin took such good care of my dog, followed all of my instructions, and went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate her efforts, her professionalism, and her genuine, caring nature. I highly recommend Robin.
We had a wonderful experience with Sandi! She took excellent care of Maverick and gave us complete peace of mind while away. She was very communicative, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure we always knew how he was doing. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and we would definitely have her watch Maverick again in the future!
Elizabeth was great with my dog Beans. I can’t always take her with me because she can be aggressive towards other dogs and Elizabeth did great at making sure beans was well taken care of and walked despite her issue. She sent pictures and updates everyday and was very kind and easy to work with!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sandy Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sandy Hills on Rover is $49.95 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 2,750 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sandy Hills. 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 Sandy Hills 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 Sandy Hills 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 Sandy Hills 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.

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.
