One of the best sitters I have had. Frequent updates, followed all instructions, went above and beyond. Dash was happy, well cared for, fed, clean, and loved. I felt completely at ease leaving him with Shannon.

Ana was great! It was a last minute booking and she asked all the right questions to make me feel comfortable leaving my dogs. She spent so much time with them and followed all of my (many) instructions to a tee. Very much recommend!

Gloria was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond with caring for my dogs and looking after them. I’ve had other sitters in the past but Gloria really is to my standards. She even cleaned the dog bowls and sent pictures of the dogs. I really appreciated everything she did :)

About: I had the pleasure of taking care of a little Shihtzu named Giselle for nearly 7 years and now have a gray tabby named Chicho for nearly 4 😊 Every moment has been incredibly rewarding. I wanted to extend that same love, care and patience to all other animals in my area! Having experience with dogs and cats of all ages, all personalities and all energies has given me the opportunity to learn the different kinds of care they each require. ***House-Sitting/Overnight requests are JUST me staying overnight in your home to care for your pet (9PM-8AM). My house sitting is not all day 24/7 care, I typically aim to check in on your pet(s) every 3-5 hours or as less/more often as you request. My Overnight/House Sitting fee includes (1) walk and/or visit (example: letting them out in your yard, playtime, etc.) Additional visits are extra.*** I work full time as a dental surgical assistant 8AM-4PM on weekdays. After then and all day weekends I’m available to care for your little one! I understand the importance of making sure your pets are fulfilled within their limits and I’m happy to maintain their typical routine and even more.

Danny did a phenomenal job watching our two dogs, three cats and one bird over the holidays while we dealt with unexpected must do travel. When we needed to extend a few days, he graciously accommodated that as well.

About: Hello! I am a student at the University of South Wales doing my bachelor's in Wildlife Ecology Conservation. Im looking for petsitting/dog walking work while Im here through september. Im an aspiring veterinarian and have cared for anything domestic like dogs, cats, birds, or rabbits and exotics like hedgehogs, lions, and elephants. Please let me know if you need any animal care this summer! Im affordable and flexible ❤️🐶🐘 Im currently on school break and taking summer online classes. I love high energy dogs to join me on local hikes and long walks or low energy dogs to keep me company on the couch or while I work on my online classes. Im flexible! How I manage your pet depends on their personality. If theyre a cuddle bug theyll be right there with me all the time, but if they prefer their own space I'll keep them company from the other room

Best catsitter ever! We couldn’t be happier with the care our cats received. Even our cat with a more challenging personality liked him. House was in perfect condition upon our return. He sent update photos and one of our cats actually seems to miss him. Would hire again. 10/10.

About: I have over 4 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and personalities. My family has a 16-year-old dog, so I understand the patience, attention, and special care that senior dogs often need. I have also pet sat for multiple families and have experience caring for up to four dogs at once. I treat every pet like they are my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I’m a teacher on summer break, which means I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications. I make sure pets get plenty of attention and care so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also respect your home, keeping everything clean and organized, and I provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel relaxed and cared for in their own environment.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years now. I love animals and I love giving them all the attention they need. I am willing to help with pet care no matter what that means. It could be as simple as feeding and walks. It could also be more complicated and be about making sure an older dog gets their medicine. Secretly for me pet sitting is more about spending time with animals than it is about the money. I am free all day on the weekends. I will base my weekend schedule around the dog’s schedule. On weekdays I am currently working from home 8-4. If I need to stay overnight at your home I treat it with the upmost respect. I am also willing to do other basic tasks at the house. Like watering plants and taking in the mail. I know how helpful it can be for dogs to stay in a familiar environment.

Ken took such good care of our boy Hamlet. He’s just such a natural around dogs and is funny to boot. Very jovial and attentive with a great sense of humor. He gave us updates for each time he checked in Hamlet on each day with a report on meal time, potty breaks, and play time. Also sent cute pictures! Ken clearly loves dogs and shows that in his care for them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.

Amanda did a wonderful job! She stayed in our home, following all instructions and leaving our house clean and tidy. Most importantly, she took great care of Winnie! We received super photos, so we knew they were playing and hanging out together. It was clear that Winnie was in good hands, whch allowed to have us a stress-free time away. Thank you!

Raquel took great care of my dog and left my home in pristine condition while house sitting. She was highly communicative throughout the stay and made sure that my dog went out for plenty of walks and had lots of indoor play time. My dog does not do well with other dogs and Raquel did a great job in avoiding any issues while on walks. I would highly recommend Raquel’s services!

FAQs for House Sitting - Seneca

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 10,394 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Seneca. 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 Seneca 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 Seneca 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 Seneca 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 Seneca. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
