“Robert was very attentive to our dog. He took him on walks and spent a lot of time hanging out with him. He kept us updated throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures. We were very happy with him. I would highly recommend him and will use him again!”

“Jake is wonderful. We went on a trip for a week and he stayed with our older dogs. We got pictures and updates from Jake, he took them on walks and outside. The dogs are happy and the house was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jake. We never leave our dogs with anyone so this was a big deal and we can’t thank Jake enough for making this a great experience.”

“We'd definitely book with Kayla again. Super responsive, sends updates/pics, clearly great with animals. We can tell our cat liked her. Gave us peace of mind while we were traveling.”
“Rebecca is an AMAZING pet sitter. My dogs (and I have a lot of dogs) adore her and the extra special touches she brings (ex: leaving them with Zen music when she isn't there or before we get home), allowing them to be the dogs they are and accepting they make messes). I know our pack is a bunch of misfits, but she never appears frazzled going about caring for them. We appreciate her and all she does for our pups and the condition of our house when she leaves. Impeccable!”

About: With a full year of Rover experience and a strong base of repeat clients, I bring reliability, consistency, and genuine care to every booking. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, including my own 80‑lb senior lab, and I understand how important it is to maintain routines, provide calm structure, and keep pets comfortable. Whether your pet needs playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience, I’m committed to giving them attentive, high‑quality care. A meet & greet is required for all first time clients. I want to make sure this is a good fit for everyone! Pet care is a core part of my everyday life because pet‑sitting is my full‑time job. My days revolve around maintaining consistent routines, giving each pet plenty of attention, and making sure everyone feels comfortable and cared for. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship without rushing or squeezing things in. With my own 8‑year‑old, 80‑lb lab by my side, caring for dogs is simply part of the rhythm of my home and my week. Pets staying with me get reliable structure, lots of interaction, and a calm environment where they can settle in and feel at ease. I offer both in‑home boarding and in‑home sitting, and I tailor my care to whatever helps pets feel the most comfortable. When pets stay with me, they have full access to my fenced‑in backyard for safe outdoor time, plus daily walks either through downtown Lambertville or along the quieter D&R towpath depending on their energy level and personality. My home is set up for dogs to relax, follow familiar routines, and enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to stay in a client’s home when that’s the best fit. In those cases, I adapt completely to the pet’s existing schedule, environment, and household routines—whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, maintaining training habits, or keeping their usual walking routes. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, understood, and cared for, no matter which service their family chooses.
About: I've been taking care of my best friend's and my neighbors' dogs since before I can remember, and have two very happy and healthy cats myself. I can take care of any animal, but cats and dogs are my favorites. I love to take dogs on walks and playing fetch (even on 100+ degree days) because every dog deserves the best treatment. Pet care is 24/7 for me with two cats, but since it's summertime, I'm able to be free any day of the week at any time to take care of pets, and can spend long amounts of time with pets without having to leave them. I will follow any and all rules and set by you, including feeding times, walk requests and more, as all I want is to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and taken care of properly. I am very enthusiastic about walks and even just playing with and petting dogs, and I just want to make sure pets are happy and healthy😸.
“Yana is beyond wonderful! Our Charlie is so comfortable with her and she truly takes great care of him. We are spoiled having her to take care of our very spoiled “with love” Charlie ❤️”

No pesticides are used in the yard so it is safe for dogs and chickens, as well as wildlife!
“Laura was so helpful with our 15 year old pup, who can be a little quirky. She handled his evening medications perfectly and made us feel completely at ease. We’re so grateful to know he was in such good hands, thank you!”
About: I'm an experienced dog-walker, sitter, and owner. I adore dogs (sometimes more than humans!). I take extra care with each dog I have the privilege of being with - whether it be a walk, an outing, or a cuddle. Dogs need love, attention, and understanding just like us and I make sure to provide that as much as I can. I am also a volunteer at the animal shelter and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I'm very flexible! Around weekdays and can be free on weekends if needed. I'm willing to work with your schedule! My job and life allow me to be open. I respect your space and needs and follow your lead on how best to care for your pup. I currently am not taking dogs in my home.
About: I’ve always had multiple pets my whole life from a young age, learned responsibilities by feeding, grooming, walking, entertaining, training and medically providing for all my pets and any animal in my care. I have experience working in multiple vet clinics throughout my childhood as I was a pre-vet major up until junior year of college so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of animals and medical knowledge as well. I now have my own dog, Appa, who is 2 that I raised from a puppy and am currently self training. I am currently a phd grad student at vanderbilt university so I have morning classes and lab work, but I live right down the road from campus (less than 5 min drive) and I always come home immediately after my classes/work to be home with Appa. Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I spend as much time as i can working from home so I can be with my dog. I have a 1 bedroom apartment and i live with my 2 year old fur baby named Appa! I have an apt with room for some zoomies and room to play with toys, I have a balcony if they like being outside and my buidling also has a small dog park on the roof with 2 fenced circular yards lined with turf so they can run around at a mini park as much as they want!
“Emily was fantastic. When my work travel unexpectedly extended she was able to continue sitting my pup. She was extremely communicative throughout the entire sit and gave me peace of mind and heart while I was away.”

“Susan was awesome with Nash, our 7 month old Maltipoo. We have never used a sitter who has stayed at our home before. She is very trustworthy and always communicative with us. Would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”

“Sarah took very good care of our little girl while we were gone for 10 days. She stayed with her, sent pictures and updates, and even helped with a few things around the house like watering plants. When we returned home the house was as clean if not cleaner than when we left it! She even went above and beyond waiting for a grocery delivery when our flight was delayed. Our fur baby appeared happy and well taken care of while we were gone. She went on walks, played, and had lots of snuggles. We were so grateful she got to stay in her home and we are so glad we chose Sarah as our sitter.”

“Sadie was an amazing house sitter. She gave us daily updates on our dog and helped with plant care and package collection. Sadie was very polite and communicative and made our trip easy. We will certainly plan to work with Sadie again.”


“Joanne was a delight to work with and my pet Duke absolutely adored her! As a first time Rover user having someone watch our pet overnight, I didn’t know what to expect but Joanne made it so easy. I would highly recommend Joanne and her pet sitting services. She was reliable, dependable, treated my pet like her own, and also treated my home like her own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,585 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sandy Ridge. 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 Ridge 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 Ridge 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 Ridge 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
