About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. I have one dog named Zeus who is like a child to me and one cat named Tito who I also adore! Sometimes I think I like animals more than people😂. Animals always love me and I always treat them like my own:)) I currently do not work so my schedule is always open no matter what time or day of the week! I’m free almost all the time:)) I have an open yard with a long chain I use for potty breaks or outdoor play time! We also have many neighbor dogs who love to make new friends! All of my neighbor dogs play together and get along great with my dog.
“Sue is so wonderful. I was at ease on my family vacation, over a major holiday, knowing that she was there with our fur babies. I appreciated the daily updates and photos. You can tell Sue really cares about what she is doing.”
About: I have a natural talent for taking care of dogs and walking them with patience and confidence. Whether it’s making sure they’re well-fed, groomed, or simply happy, I pay attention to their needs and treat them with genuine care. On walks, im calm but in control, keeping the dogs safe while letting them explore and enjoy their surroundings. Dogs respond well to your energy, and it’s clear that I build trust with them quickly. My love for animals make me someone dogs—and their owners—can rely on. I work part time and am available most days of the week to walk or house sit. I also am available on the weekends to take care of dogs. I stick closely to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets thrive on routine. I make sure the home is pet-proofed. Remove harmful items, secure doors and gates, and ensure the pet has access to clean water, a cozy sleeping area, and toys.

About: I have been watching our neighbors and family friend’s dogs and doing drop-ins since I was little. My family has also had a dog since I was in highschool. I take him on walks every evening and am responsible for feeding and letting him out when my family is out of town. As well as my sisters dog when she stays with us. I am available throughout the day to do drop-in’s, go on walks or spend time with them at home throughout the day. Aside from a random day I have plans, my schedule is very flexible. I have a dog I take on walks at home and enjoy being outside with. As well as playing/throwing their toys or sitting together at home.
“Christina was amazing with my dog this past weekend! She was good at communicating and sent some pictures, it was very helpful and a relief to know that someone was there to pay just as much attention and care as I would while I was gone. Thanks again!!”
“Bea did a great job housesitting for me and looking after my two big shy rescue dogs for a week. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when I got home and the house was in great shape. Bea provided daily pics and updates and was prompt in her replies. Overall a great experience and I hope to be able to work with her again!”
About: Dog Mom of 5 years. The epitome of an animal lover. I have reliable transportation and am very outgoing. Almost as much of a people person as i am a dog person. I also became a Certified Canine Handler in September of 2019. I bring years of hands-on pet care experience, specializing in personalized attention and understanding the unique needs of each pet. From playing with energetic puppies to providing gentle care for senior dogs with special needs, I’m reliable, and have a genuine love for animals. I’m also skilled in administering medications, handling behavioral quirks, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in their home environment. My priority is to treat every furry friend like family, offering peace of mind to pet parents while they’re away. I currently have a full time job that’s 100% remote so my schedule is very flexible. Caring for my furry baby is my top priority and will treat yours the same! Rescue Dog Mom of 5 years. He is extremely friendly and loves playing with other of dogs if that is something clients are interested in. We go on hikes and long walks 3-4 a day. My pup gets plenty of love and attention every day.
“We could not have had a better experience working with Jarett. It was our first long trip away from Oliver, and he went above and beyond not only to make sure Oliver was taken care of, but that we were updated often. Thanks to Jarett, we were able to relax on vacation and come home to a happy pup and our house exactly as we left it.”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have experience fostering rescue dogs, caring for strays, and pet sitting for family, friends, and repeat clients. As a professional nanny, I’m responsible, attentive, and reliable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m working part time and love to be active and on the go, running errands around town it makes it easy to fit your needs into my schedule. During in-home visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, clean up any messes, and provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or a few extra treats and cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away!
About: I’ve learned and taken on responsibilities caring for animals, specifically dogs, at a young age. Nacho, my past rescue dog, lived to be about 15 years of age. He needed quite a lot of care in his old age, including joint supplements, pimobendan for his heart, and other treatments. I currently have two cats named Kirby and Sam. I would love to have a dog, but my living situation doesn’t allow currently for the quality of life they deserve. I work full-time as an aesthetician, but with some days off, so if you need a day or a time that you don’t see we may be able to work something out:) I ensure a clean environment with no hazardous materials around, ample enrichment, and all the love humanly possible. Full of healthy food and treats obviously🤪
“Amanda was an awesome sitter. She was prompt and very kind. I have 5 dogs, one being a 16 week puppy and she took great care of them! She sent me pictures and kept in touch with me during the stay. I definitely will have sit again. She is a kind-sweet hearted person and I have confidence and trust in her. Thanks again Amanda!”
“Kristie was so wonderful. She was extremely attentive to my dog's needs, gave him a lot of attention, and he very clearly loved her from the pictures she sent. She consistently sent photos of the routes they walked on Google maps to show that she'd made sure Franklin was given enough exercise and stimulation, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book her again!”
“James took such great care of my puppy. He kept me updated daily, sent lots of pictures and definitely put her at ease in my absence. She was in great shape when we arrived home. I highly recommend James”

Danyel was a wonderful dogsitter for my 2 American Akitas and 3 cats. She kept everyone safe and comfortable as she spent a whole week in my home. She even vacuumed, unboxed my live plant deliveries, and collected eggs from my chicken coops. She texted photos and kept me up to date. Would recommend and will book again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Strabane
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Strabane on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,427 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Strabane. 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 Strabane 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 Strabane 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 Strabane 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.
