“Our dogs love Dillon and we do too! It’s so reassuring to leave our house and beloved pets in his car when we’re gone. The house looks great when return and the animals are happy and contended thank you, Dillon.”
“his was our first time working with Daiana, and we truly have nothing but wonderful things to say! From the initial meet-and-greet, both of our dogs were immediately comfortable, excited, and happy to spend time with her. Throughout our weekend away, Daiana kept us updated consistently and made sure the dogs got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. The moment we got home, it was obvious our pups had been incredibly well cared for. We would highly recommend Daiana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, whether for big dogs, small dogs, or anything in between.”
“Dana took excellent care of my girl. She communicated well throughout. It was clear Ellie was loved and well cared for in my absence. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Amelia did a wonderful job taking care of all our pets! She sent pictures daily detailing the various adventures they were having. Our house is quite the menagerie. She juggled all of the instructions for the dog, the cats, the gecko, and the aquariums (both saltwater and freshwater). It was amazing to have one person who could handle all of it throughout the week instead of sending some to the kennel and organizing someone to swing by the house. We will definitely hire Amelia again!”
“Rover Review We had a great experience with our sitter! She took wonderful care of our dogs while we were away, and when we got home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The house was also left clean and in great shape, which we really appreciated. She was very attentive to the dogs while she was there and gave us updates without overwhelming us with constant messages, which made being away much less stressful. We really appreciated being able to enjoy our trip knowing the dogs were in good hands. We would definitely have her stay with them again!”
“Kaylin took care of our big fluffy guy for a long weekend and we couldn’t have been happier! Leo was exercised to the fullest every day and we loved all the picture updates :) our home was in perfect condition when we came home. We will definitely be using Kaylin again in the future!”
“Emily was wonderful! Our dog has lots of little quirks and can require lots of energy from a dog sitter. Emily did great with him. We’re so grateful to have found someone that can cater to his needs and stay in our home. Would absolutely recommend Emily!”
“Susan was an amazing dogsitter! It was a last-minute request, and she was so accommodating, kind, and great with Cleo, who had some anxiety at first. Susan was patient with Cleo, and they eventually warmed up to each other! We got amazing updates with photos, and Susan was an awesome house guest, too. We can’t wait for her to watch Cleo for us again!”
“Breyanna and Lucy were the perfect match for our high energy 5 mo old GSP puppy. We had daily updates and pictures, he was very well cared for. We will definitely use Breyanna again!”
“Liza was great! I took a 12 day trip and left my older pup in her care and couldn’t be happier. All special instructions were followed and I came home to a healthy and happy doggo. The house was in good order as well. She was also very communicative and took plenty of photos during the stay.”
“Alexandra is the best! I would 100% recommend her to anyone to take care of your fur babies! She takes photos and is in complete contact with you every day. My dogs loved her! She is very respectful of your house, and I was very happy with how clean it was when I returned.”
“Shannon was awesome and my Lucy loved her taking good care of her. She followed all instructions given and I really appreciate that she did that. I would highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
“Chris was wonderful. She responded quickly to our initial request and was very easy to communicate with. She gave us confidence that she would be a good match for our dog who can be a bit timid at times. Chris stayed in our home and we felt very confident having her stay over. Would highly recommend Chris.”
“We could not be happier with Jessica. She was outstanding. It was obvious our puppies loved her so much. She also went above and beyond checking to see if she needed to water anything and also folded some laundry I had sitting out which we certainly did not expect. We will definitely use her again and again. We know our dogs were well taken care of by how happy they were when we got home.”
“Rory was fantastic! 11ish days with my temperamental chi and his 4 kitties... I will definitely be keeping her on my shortlist for future trips! Rory sent pics and videos during my trip to help ease my anxiety of being away from the babies. I can tell my brood had a good experience!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Autumn watching our dog, Bandit. We came home to a clean & tidy place plus one happy pup. We appreciated receiving pictures, reassuring that bandit was having a great time and looked content. We would absolutely recommend Autumn’s services and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Taylor was so helpful coming in last minute. She was careful with our elderly dog, making sure she has everything she needs to be comfortable and happy. We would love to have her watch our dog in the future!”

Haley was amazing with our two babies! She kept us up to date with everything that she was doing with them and sent us pictures as well! My beagle is very anxious and gets nervous and scared easily, Haley did an awesome job making sure she was comfortable! Thank you again!
Lexie is amazing!! She was punctual and responsive with all communication, our meet & greet and for our booking. She stayed at our home with our 3 dogs and cat and treated them like they were her own. She had no issues giving meds and dealing with personality quirks. Our animals loved her. Our house was immaculate when we got home. We will definitely hire her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Severance on Rover is $47.87 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,569 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Severance. 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 Severance 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 Severance 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 Severance 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.
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.
