About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a variety of animals, I have developed a deep understanding and appreciation for the diverse needs and behaviors of domestic pets. My background includes extensive work with both dogs and cats, ensuring they receive the specialized attention, exercise, and companionship essential to their well-being. My passion for animal welfare drives me to provide a high standard of care focused on health and happiness. As a dedicated pet sitter, I am committed to treating your companions with the same love and respect as if they were my own, offering you peace of mind while you are away. Let me know what you need and I can accommodate for you as needed! I’m excited to meet your fur baby and have a good time! I will keep your furbaby safe. Your pets day will be filled with exciting walks, playtime, and lots of love. I’ll make sure they stay active and happy!
“Logan was amazing!! She was very communicative, sending pictures and updates, and was easy to get in touch with. She was great with our girls and treated them so well. They had some unexpected accidents, and she was so gracious about dealing with them. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We would totally ask Logan to watch our dogs again!!”
About: My promise is to love your dog as much I love mine! I can walk with them and not rush. Dogs need to smell the roses ... grass .... their corner ... yes, take it all in! I've only walked my dog and daughter's so I'm relatively new to doggies. A dog will always always see a person's love and heart. I hope you have dog poop bags .... it's a pet peeve of mine. I truly believe in being a poop svooper. Take the memories with you, leave nothing behind! Allow me to watch your fur baby just like I take care of mine! I will also provide a quick description of dog's activities while I care for them which gives you peace. XO
“Savannah house sat our house for our 3 animals, 2 dogs and 1 cat. She was amazing and our pets loved her so much! She kept us updated with pictures, updates throughout the day, and was very good with overall communication. We 100% recommend Savannah and we will be using her again! Thank you so much again for taking care of our babies!”
“Tori was great housesitting Mikko! She was prompt and responsive. She took Mikko on plenty of walks (which is very important for him as a young dog). The house looked awesome when we got home, and Mikko was a happy pup. I will definitely look to book Tori again 😀”
“I adore these people. My only hesitation in posting a great review is that we want to keep Ayla & Han all to ourselves!! Expert care infused with love, kindness, compassion, and genuine affection for our dog and cats. Our dog is almost 13 years old and requires twice-daily medications. I never worry about Mamie’s care needs. We have one very extroverted cat (Goji) and one very shy cat (BellaPearl). I’m so surprised that by this 3rd sit this year, Bella is seeking affection from Ayla! That’s more high praise than I can offer. Truly. I can’t wait to get home to see them all. Thank you, Ayla & Han for EVERYTHING, and, more importantly, being exactly who you are. Absolute gems!”
“Can’t say enough positive things about our experience with Ivan! My pup had the best visit with him & Rex. We’re so grateful we came across him, he’s already helped us in so many ways! Great with updates and communication!”
“Mary Sue deserves more than 5 stars. She went above and beyond for our 3 hounds! We will definitely be rebooking for our future needs! She kept us updated multiple times throughout each day and gave us picture updates to ensure our dogs were in great hands! Our place was clean when she left and our dogs were beyond happy which is everything we wanted after coming back home from a long trip! Would definitely recommend Mary Sue and he will use her again in the future!”
About: I grew up with pitbulls all my life. If your dog needs to be in a lap on the couch, I can make that happen. Daily walks by a lake is a must. I have 3 dogs. My dogs do not travel with me. If you need your house to be watched with your pets my animals will not be with me at all. I stay at home so your dog will never be locked up in a cage. Dog walks daily. If your dog needs a ride to get a pup cup I can make this happen. I have a fenced in yard. It's a half fence. I work from home. I live next to open space and a lake. Daily walks to the lake will happen. If you have a lazy dog they can be a couch potato too.
“Rachel took care of our two dogs and our home for several days. She kept us in the loop; sent us pics of the pups; and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. Our dogs seemed happy and well-cared-for upon our return. We'd be happy to book her again.”
“We are SO happy we booked with Katie. She was responsive, sent loadddss of pictures, and our dogs LOVED her. Also, our house was in the same condition we left it in. We will definitely be asking Katie to house and dog sit for us again.”
“Maranda was absolutely incredible with Boone. She kept me updated with adorable photos, made him special puppy ice cream, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and a wonderful communicator. The house was spotless when I got home and Boone was relaxed and happy. She’s trustworthy, loving, and exactly the kind of sitter every dog parent dreams of! Boone and I are so lucky to have found her.”
“Lexie was (is) a wonderful caretaker! She has a gentle demeanor that won over our anxious shelter pup. She sent lots of great photos, and was able to coax him to go on a solo walk rather than wait for us. when he realized she was leaving he’d bonded with her enough that he said goodbye!”
“Taylor and Luke were fantastic! My 50 pound dog has fear based aggression issues while outside (triggers include dogs, people, bikes, scooters...) and is quite the handful (growls lunges, freaks out at triggers) when not in the comfort of her home. They did an amazing job with her, sent me lots of updates and photos and left my place super clean. They also had to give her pills daily. Our meet and greet went really well and I could tell my pup loved them and I was confident they would be able to handle her while I was out of the country and not always reachable. I would 100% recommend!”
“Cindy is amazing sitter. She kept us well informed and took excellent care of our dogs walking them at least twice a day and exercising them out in the yard as well. Communicates well and in a timely manner. She was an overnight sitter for us and took care of our house as well. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Branham did a wonderful job watching Bowie! I was so impressed by his great communication, providing updates on how he was doing, and making sure my house was clean when I came home. Plus he got a bonus play friend with Bandit, which I know he loved. I will be booking again! :) thank you!”
“Amazing experience with Bryson. Came to our before the stay to meet our dog / cat, and from the jump it was great! Always early, follows rules, responsive…he even washed and folded the sheets and towels he used. Cannot wait to use again.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of and loving my family pets and lots of experience dog and cat sitting for friends and family. I LOVE animals and I would love to give your animals a calm, safe, and loving presence while you are away. I work as a full time teacher, but have availability and flexibility to watch your dogs on weekends and to give walks and potty breaks after 3:30pm on weekdays. I am available to watch your dogs in the comfort of their own home. I am available to travel to your home for potty and walk breaks and can stay for extended stays as needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Strasburg
Leila was the perfect sitter. We have a little Jack Russell that had a trauma and can be very leary of people and animals. She can get a bit spicy on occasion. She warmed up to Leila very quickly due to her tender, loving personality. Leila sent pictures while we were gone and they were very chummy on the couch, on the deck, playing in her plastic pool or going for walks. We felt very comfortable knowing she was happy and in good hands. Leila was not only great with our little Static, she also washed the sheets and towels so we could have more time to enjoy our much missed little doggy! I would highly recommend Leila to anyone who is looking for a wonderful, reliable person to really care and spend time with their precious animal!

FAQs for House Sitting - Strasburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Strasburg is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $69 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,060 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Strasburg. 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 Strasburg 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 Strasburg 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 Strasburg 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.
