“Breanna was absolutely amazing! Our dog has a few quirks that require a little extra love and Breanna had no issues accommodating and giving him the attention he needed while we were away. We got regular updates and pictures and our house was clean and put together when we came back. So happy we found her for our future sitting needs!”
“Great communication with us while we are away. Loved the pictures daily and took great care of our pets, especially our people aggressive dog. Will continue to book again in the future.”
“We had just gotten our puppy and needed a sitter to watch him two days later. Cassie was fantastic; she had no issues watching him in our home and was even nice enough to bring him back to her home where she has a fenced in backyard! She provided photos and updates throughout the day and we will definitely book her again!”
“Heather was absolutely incredible with all four of our fur babies while we were away for a week!! We have two cats and two dogs and one of our dogs can be a bit nervous around new people and either shuts down or gets defensive. Heather took the time to build a relationship with him giving him the space he needed to feel comfortable and by the end of our trip they were getting along so well, she really built that trust. All the photos and daily recaps were amazing, she is incredibly thorough and took care of our babies as if they were her own. I can’t tell you how much peace of mind that brought us while we were so far away knowing they were all being cared for so well. I would absolutely recommend Heather to anyone and will definitely being booking with her again!!!”
“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”
“We used Ariel’s services for a last minute booking and she was so wonderful with all 4 of our dogs. She was tremendously helpful and we really appreciate her professionalism!”
“Kiley took fabulous care of our dog, two cats, and home! She was incredibly communicative and thoughtful with her messages. She left our home in wonderful shape after house-sitting for a few days and concluded her stay with a photoshoot of all our little fur babies. Thank you, Kiley!”
“Jennifer was great with our dog and cat! She stayed the weekend while we were away, and we knew everything was going well based on the amount of communication (and photos), which was very much appreciated! We would happily recommend Jennifer to others, and will surely use her again!”
About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a young girl. Growing up, we had dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, ferrets, and reptiles. I currently have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and a turtle. I have taken care of the pets in my neighborhood for many years. I currently care for a senior dog and have raised many puppies. I love all animals and will provide exceptional love and care for your pet. I have a hybrid work schedule and can easily schedule visits or overnight care with notice. Friday-Monday work best for me but can be flexible during the week as well. I will stay in your home and follow the routine/schedule that your pet is used to. I will provide comfort and care and will follow any directions.
“Jill did a great job She had to fill in at the last minute do to an illness of our original sitter She had to meet and greet on her own The house was left in great shape and she did a great job taking care of our dog I would highly recommend her”
“Polina did an excellent job staying at our house with our dog Flora for several days! She followed my dogs schedule, made sure she was walked/pooped/fed/cuddled, and kept us updated with lots of pictures and reports! She even helped us out by going the extra mile and feeding our turtle, AND watered my garden! I would highly recommend Polina to watch your dog! Thanks so much Polina!”
“Heather is awesome!!! A family member was supposed to watch our dogs but she was injured just days before our trip. I reached out to Heather at 4pm on a Tuesday and she was at my house for a meet and greet at 8am Wednesday. She was super accommodating from the first moment all the way to the end of the sitting. Throughout our vaca she sent pics and videos but was also totally self sufficient. The dogs had a great time with her. When we got home our dogs were happy to see us but not desperate for attention as they sometimes have been in the past after we’ve been away. You could tell that they were the #1 focus of Heather’s time while we were gone and received tons of play and snuggles. I will absolutely book Heather again and highly recommend her!”
“Alexis was wonderful. She was very attentive to Shep. She walked and played with him and took him out on adventures. She kept in touch with us and sent pictures. I would highly recommend and look forward to her dog sitting again. I know Shep misses her already.”
“Emma was amazing. Finn was very happy when we came home. She sent us many pictures and videos of Finn during the week she was here. We are very pleased and will definitely use her again.”
“Sam was absolutely awesome taking care of my Dixie and Tobi. She stayed in my house for 11 days with them and they loved her. She is caring and pays very close attention to detail. I highly recommend Sam. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of my babies.”
“Sydney did a great job looking after our two dogs while we were away for the weekend. She was communicative and kept us posted on how things were going. Would definitely hire her again!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Slatersville is $58 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $132 per night.

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 Slatersville 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 Slatersville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Slatersville 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.
