The updates were great! Riff really took to Dan and I came home to a happy pup. Dan also cleaned my bedding and cleaned without asking which was much appreciated.

Calvin was an absolute lifesaver watching our dog Mila while we went out of town for a few days. He was detail oriented, friendly and warm, and took such great care of Mila. We got tons of photos and updates while we were gone and we knew she was in good hands!

My wife and I booked Dominique to watch our dog during our wedding weekend. She went above and beyond helping us out, giving us updates, and even bringing our pup to the Church for pictures. Dominque was the MVP of our wedding and it was so wonderful being able to share the moment with our dog while also knowing he was safe and comfortable.

Alyssa is an amazing sitter. She is kind and thorough and clearly loves caring for pets. What more could you ask for? She left my house just as she found it and my dog and cat were clearly comfortable and happy after being with her. I look forward to hiring her again soon.

Carmen was communicative and followed all of our instructions to a tee! As our dog has heart failure and needs special care, we are always hesitant to leave him behind but we felt safe leaving him with Carmen. She was respectful of our home and was very kind. We would definitely book her for future sittings.

My dog Raven was very relaxed when I got home. Dru took very good care of her, was great with communication, and sent lots of pictures. I knew she got brushed and cuddled because Raven’s coat was super shiny! I will certainly recommend Dru to my friends and neighbors when they are looking for a trustworthy dogsitter.

Taylor is a great pet sitter! I am a self proclaimed crazy pet parent and I get really nervous about leaving my pets with someone else. However, I didn’t worry at all when Taylor watched my dogs and cats. She took excellent care of them and they were happy all weekend! I will definitely be using Taylor again in the future.

About: Hi! I have experience dog, cat, and house sitting! I’m timely and pride myself on attention to detail. Lots of experience with both elderly pets and puppies. I am a high school science teacher, so my summers are very flexible. During the school year, I am available most days after 3:30 pm or if you are close enough, on my lunch break. I am able to board medium and small pets in my home comfortably. In your home, I am always respectful of your privacy and cleanliness. I’m happy to care for plants or house chores as needed. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Couldn't recommend Amanda more! She stepped in super last‑minute to stay at our home and watch our two dogs (lifesaver!), and we couldn’t be more grateful for her help. She kept us updated throughout her stay with messages and photos which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs seemed super happy the whole time/when we came home, it was clear she did such a great job taking care of them. We highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable pet sitter. We’re so thankful for her care and will absolutely be booking with her again!

Brianna was a great cat and house sitter! Brianna quickly responded to my query for a meet and greet and asked great questions. She stayed for over a week and graciously adjusted her dates to come earlier and stay a day later than I had originally booked. My kitties were very well loved and taken care of and Brianna gave me perfect daily updates and followed my kitty and house instructions. I came home to very happy and comfortable kitties and the house looked great and as I left it. I will be booking Brianna again. I feel very good about her staying in my home. Thank you Brianna!

Anna took great care of our two dogs and home while we were away on vacation. One of our dogs had a medical emergency while we were away, and Anna did all the right things, including calling Rover, a late night trip to an emergency vet, keeping us informed and communicating throughout, and administering medications as needed. Our dogs can be a bit nervous but got used to Anna quickly. She sent us lots of pictures during her stay.

FAQs for House Sitting - Spruce Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Spruce Hill on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,533 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Spruce Hill. 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 Spruce Hill 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 Spruce Hill 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 Spruce Hill 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 Spruce Hill. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
