“Priya was wonderful with Coconut. She sent pictures of him every time she was at the house and kept us updated every day about all his eating and other activities. She went above and beyond to make sure our first time using a house sitter was a great experience. Her love for animals shows as she cared for our 17-year-old puppy. Meals and meds where on schedule and Coconut even cuddled with her in the evening. Thank you, Priya for care and support while we were away.”

“My boys took to her immediately and one can be very attached to me so that made it so much easier to leave him! Very attentive to them and kept me updated frequently. Highly recommend her'.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for 3 years now. I’ve done a wide variety of jobs. I have worked on a long term schedule, stayed overnight, and handled last minute care situations. Every single time I have met both the fur baby and owner with care, compassion, and trust. I have always loved caring for pets and love to tune in with each of their personalities! From hyperactive pups to our elderly babies who just want to watch tv together. It’s amazing to bring out the personality in each one and give them the opportunity to be in charge! If they want to walk, we walk, if they want to play, we play, if they want to chill all day, we chill! I can ensure that while you’re out, your pet will be taken care of and loved so you can remain stress free. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to work with you and your pet. I love getting out of the house and would love to spend the day with your fur buddy! I currently have one large dog and one cat in my home. I plan to only work within the clients home. I believe it’s best to keep pets in their safe space so they can remain stress free while you remain stress free as well. I’m accustomed to house sitting, house care, and staying overnight if needed. I can assure you that I will abide by the campsite rule and always leave things better than how I found them!
“Cathleen was great. She watched Otis for 6.5 hours in our home while we went to an event. Felt comfortable with having Cathleen in our home and very comfortable with her watching Otis. We will book Cathleen for our next event!”
About: Your dog will enjoy a spacious one-acre property with plenty of room to run, sniff, and play. For dogs that love the water, supervised pool time is available with owner permission. I provide personalized care, lots of playtime, and a safe, loving environment. I have been involved in providing pet boarding for a while now. I am 34 with a very outgoing and active lifestyle. Animals/pets have always been part of my life and being around them and their well being has always been one of my biggest passions. I work from home so I have plenty of time to obligate to your pets and their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have plenty of time to give pets the attention, playtime, and care they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also have open availability for boarding, so your pet will receive attentive, loving care in a safe and comfortable environment while you're away. Your dog will enjoy a spacious one-acre property with plenty of room to run, sniff, and play. For dogs that love the water, supervised pool time is available with owner permission.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I am dependable and will take care of your furry friend like it were my own. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have plenty of time to tend to the needs of your pet, whatever they may be. I do not currently have any dogs or cats so your furry friend will have the run of our house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but will be happy to take your pup on walks. I am happy to crate your animal as needed.
“Mariah was an excellent communicator and my dog loves her. She ended up needing to modify our reservation, but still ensured my pup was still well cared for throughout the stay.”
About: Hi! I’m Meagan! I’m 27 years old and currently finishing my bachelor’s degree in Interior Design. I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up loving and caring for animals. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and definitely the type of person who treats pets like part of the family. I have four pets of my own, two dogs and two cats, so taking care of animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My pets are all very friendly, well-behaved, and get along great with each other. I understand that every animal has a different personality, though, and some pets need a little more space or time to feel comfortable. If your dog doesn’t tolerate cats, that’s completely okay! My cats can stay in a separate area in the back part of my house that can be closed off from the dogs. The same goes for pets that may just need their own space. I want every animal staying with me to feel safe and comfortable. Since I’m a pet owner myself, I also understand how nerve racking it can be to leave your pets with someone else. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course lots of attention and cuddles! I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. Outside of caring for my animals, I’m creative and love interior design, being active, and spending time at home with my pets. I’m currently in my final semester of college, so pet sitting is something that fits naturally into my schedule and gives me the opportunity to do something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pet is energetic and wants to play, loves going for walks, or would rather curl up and relax, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re having their own little home away from home while you have peace of mind knowing they’re being loved and cared for. 🐾🤍 I’m currently finishing my last semester of college, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m able to plan my days around pet care and can accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I also have pets of my own, so caring for animals is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I have two friendly, well-behaved dogs and two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. My pets are used to being around one another and are very friendly. If your pet isn’t comfortable around cats, my cats can stay in a separate, closed-off area of the house. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, boundaries, and any special care needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Patsy is simply the best pet sitter. She loves on my puppy and gives her excellent care, she communicates and sends photos while I’m away, and she leaves the house cleaner than it was when she arrived. Thanks, Patsy!!”
“Colleen did an excellent job taking care of our 3 Beagle fur babies! Each pup has a unique personality and she gave them each the attention they needed. They all ate while we were gone which was shocking, usually they don’t. She shared lots of pics and kept us informed on their care! Highly recommend her!”
“Amber was amazing! My dog was comfortable with her from the beginning, and I felt confident leaving her in Amber’s care. I got plenty of updates with photos. I’m looking forward to having her work with Ivy again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Sharpes is $46

Caitlyn took exceptional care of my dogs, Pancake and Willow, and truly went above and beyond. She was always on time, followed all of my instructions carefully, and made sure their medications were given exactly when needed. She sent regular updates and lots of pictures, which I really appreciated while I was away. Most importantly, Pancake and Willow absolutely loved her! Caitlyn was incredibly easy to communicate with, dependable, and someone I felt completely comfortable trusting with both my dogs and my home. It was clear from the updates and photos that they were happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. I would absolutely trust Caitlyn with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, experienced, and genuinely caring pet sitter.
Peter & Dulcea ate the best!! They watched Enzo for us for the second time and Enzo just loves them. They are super sweet dog lovers and they truly enjoy taking care of our puppy. We highly recommend them and plan to use them for all our future dog sitting needs.
This was our first time having Logan stay with our pups and cat and will not be the last. She was amazing and brought me great peace of mind knowing our fur babies were being well cared for while we were away. Thank you Logan and we look forward to having you again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sharpes
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sharpes on Rover is $30 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 1,365 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sharpes. 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 Sharpes 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 Sharpes 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 Sharpes 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
