“This was our second time booking with Amber and it certainly won’t be our last. She always goes above and beyond and it’s so comforting having her in our home with our dogs that love her! Thank you for everything, Amber! We appreciate you so much!”
“Leanissa is hands down the best dog sitter! She stayed at my home for 2 weeks to take care of Kingston and did an incredible job. She followed all care instructions, treated my home with immense respect, and went above and beyond to keep everything clean. She is now my top choice for pet sitting, and I can't wait to book her again! Kingston and I are so grateful for her!!”
“Dominic is professional and mature; she impressed me during our meet-and-greet with the dogs when she whipped out a list of questions she had for me ("Do any of the neighbors have dogs?" "Will the trash need to go curbside during my stay?"). She was communicative and good to her word with timing. Dogs loved her and we'll be happy to have her stay again!”
“Chauncey was absolutely amazing! She did an excellent job of communicating and sending us pictures everyday! Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety so when we got the first picture on the day we left, and saw Teddy actually eating her food!!!…I knew she was in great hands and I didn’t have worry while on vacation! Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I’ve cared for everything from Chihuahuas to English Mastiffs! We’ve trained them as puppies and cared for them to their last days. They are family. I’m currently working as a part time substitute in Lexington 1. I make my own schedule during the school year. I love teaching special education. I have a large fenced yard. We divided it up into two sides. We also have a huge dog house with air conditioning and beds.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. Now, I am a dog mom of 3 beauties. I have a 16 yr old shitzu terrier mixed,3 yr old a pit bull , and a 6 months English bull dog! I got out of the medical field, and have now devoted my lifestyle to my at home marketing and being a full time dog mom! I’m skilled in handling dogs of all sizes and all energy levels. I love teaching new tricks and commands. I wanted to pursue dog training once and tend to mimic a lot of tips that stick with me. Communicating with dogs comes really natural to me, and I love on all of the different personalities I’ve met. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! ****I am also able to assist with any oral medications your pet may have. I have a very flexible schedule to where I work from home. My schedule is pretty open throughout the week. If I’m not working Rover, I’m home being a dog mom! In my clients home I will follow instructions as given. I own a crate if needed, I prefer not to crate if in my care. I’m always loving on my fur babies🥰
“Drew was absolutely a dream pet sitter. I presented quite the challenge with my 3 senior pups and one very high energy GSP puppy. Drew not only met but far exceeded every expectation. It had been actually years since I had been able to go out of town without constantly worrying about my fur babies and with Drew, that changed. I had not one worry and I absolutely would not hesitate to hire him again and 1000x over recommend to anyone looking for an actual dog lover that is also reliable, consistent, friendly, loving and committed! I couldn't be more grateful to have found him and I will definitely be hiring him again. He went above and beyond and I came home to 4 very happy fur babies and that alone, is priceless. Look no further, Drew is your new pet sitter. ❤️”
About: Hello I’m Jasmyn, I grew up with dogs all of my life and as I got older I would watch my friends and peers dogs. I’m familiar with older dogs and giving medications, nap times water breaks and outside time. I’m available any time of the week and a typical day would look like, walks, cuddles, play time and medication administration if needed. I am at the hospital 3 times out the week but my schedule is pretty flexible for whenever you need a dog walked. Morning and evenings and especially weekends work. I usually follow any rules you enforce but I usually do the usual, keep them on a leash and monitoring them to make sure they’re being safe.
“Lisa is a very dependable and loving dog sitter. She showed up on time and patiently went over the details on how to care for our two pups overnight. She asked great questions so that everything was covered, including things I didn't remember like medicine and keys! Our pups were calm and happy on our return. Could not ask for a better caregiver than Lisa! We are so fortunate to have connected with her!”
About: Although I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals. I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m available most days and times, and I’m happy to work around your schedule. Just let me know when you need care, and I’ll do my best to be available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I provide care at your home, so your pets can stay in their own familiar environment and routine while you’re away.
“Sally did a great job taking care of our sweet boy (and our house)! I'm somewhat of a neat freak and she didn't question any of the house rules and the place looked as tidy as it did when we left. Most importantly, we felt comfortable leaving our 10-year old dog with her, especially as we were worried to leave him alone after his brother passed recently. (He's been extra needy.) We highly recommend her and hope to be able to book her again. THANK YOU, Sally!!”
“Katie was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our house and watched our Golden Retriever for 5 nights while we were on vacation, and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief knowing he was happy, comfortable in his own home, and being well taken care of while we were away. Katie was trustworthy, caring, and did a great job with him. We came home to a happy dog and everything just as we left it. We would absolutely book Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to stay overnight and take great care of their dog!”
“Kristin was amazing! She stayed with my two dogs for three nights, including the Fourth of July. She kept me updated at all times, sent videos, photos, and message updates. I felt very relaxed knowing she was with them. One of my dogs has leash reactivity and Kristin handled it very professionally and well. No incidents occurred with her. I even came home to a clean home! She said she wanted me to be able to relax when I returned. I will definitely use her again! Absolutely incredible service.”
“Lauren was fantastic. She went above and beyond in caring for our pup. He has separation anxiety and she did her best with him. She is caring about animals and she gave pup great love and attention. We definitely will be using her in the future. Thank you Lauren.”
About: What’s sets me apart from other sitters is I have many years of experience being around cats and dogs and I have two rescues so I know how to take care of animals! I get off at 3 for work most days so and my schedule is flexible! Afternoons suit me better but I’m willing to figure out with the client what would work best to fit their animals needs! I have a fenced in back yard that’s big and a dog and a cat that don’t mind other animals, my dog is trained as well!
“Stephanie stepped in last minute to house-sit after a series of unfortunate events left me without anyone to watch my Aussie. She responded promptly and took good care of my little girl with approximately 36 hour notice.”
About: Hi! I'm Esther--your pet's soon-to-be new favorite human I have 3 years of experience working in doggy daycares, where I cared for dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I've also spent about a year pet sitting, caring for dogs, cats, and other animals in home environments. I'm confident reading animal body language, which helps me understand how they're feeling and respond in a way that keeps them comfortable and respected. My top skills include creating a calm and reassuring environment, using a gentle and patient approach, and always being responsible and safety-focused. I'm kind, empathetic, and attentive, and I always treat every pet like my own. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for with me. My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to work with a variety of pet-care needs and I’m happy to communicate ahead of time and find a schedule that works best for everyone. When caring for pets in their home, I make their safety and comfort my first priority. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any household rules their owner has provided.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - State Park
Yentl B. recently dog- and house-sat for me for a couple of days, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly friendly and genuinely loved spending time with my dogs and cat. She even stayed overnight with them and adjusted her work schedule as much as possible to maximize their people time. Whenever she wasn’t home, she left calming dog music playing on the TV, which really helped keep them relaxed. Right before my trip, I had a small home emergency, and she stepped right in—helping manage the situation and securing the dogs while the repairman came by. Yentl was truly helpful, dependable, and caring. I would gladly have her pet sit for me again anytime!

The average cost of House Sitting in State Park is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $47 per night.

As of October 2026, there are 633 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across State Park. 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 State Park 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 State Park 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 State Park 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.
