About: I have loved animals my whole life. I am looking to start something new and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to grow my career. Rookie here with house and pet sitting. Schedule just opened wide up and taking on new clients and owners. I currently work remote and my schedule is wide open. I Have taken care of Dogs my whole life and enjoy spending time with them. I love taking care of pets like they are part of the family. I work remotely and i can take them potty whenever they need to go. I get two 15 minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch.
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats. While I now have 3 cats of my own, I cherish the time I get to spend with dogs still— including my best friend bringing her dog to my home one weekend a month! I have full availability on the weekends. During the week I have availability in the mornings and evenings for drop in visits, but with notice can be more flexible! I understand all animals are different and look forward to hearing anything about your pets needs. I myself have pets that need to eat separated from each other, and understand all pets have different needs.
“Rae is absolutely amazing! We love our dog dearly, but he can be a real handful—high energy, impulsive, and incredibly excitable, especially around new people. Before we even left, Rae had him calmly resting at her feet while she worked on her laptop. She somehow tuned into his personality right away, and even taught him a few new tricks! Her updates were thoughtful and detailed, and it was clear she truly understood him in a way that was both insightful and observant. Rae is a true dog whisperer! We’ve never felt as at ease leaving him with someone as we did with her. On a scale of 1 to 10, Rae is an 11. Highly, highly recommend!”

“We are incredibly grateful for the amazing care Jackie provided for our Bernese mountain dog Zeus. Stepping in on short notice and staying at our home was a huge help, and it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Jackie is reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely caring—everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. We would absolutely book with Jackie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Zeus!”


“Cyan was wonderfully communicative during our house sitting booking, and shared lots of pictures of our older dog during the visit. We would definitely recommend them for any pet and house sitting opportunities. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, from smaller pets like dogs and cats when I was younger to today where I help care for goats and alpacas on my family farm. I also have a young puppy of my own that I’ve been training, so I’m very familiar with routine building and patience when it comes to animals! Currently I am a college student so I am very flexible to work over breaks when I home whether that be weekends or weekdays, day or night! Though I am not available to care for animals in my own home, I will make it a priority to make them as comfortable as possible in yours! Wheather that be crating them, sticking with routines such as feeding, walking, or any other special instructions you leave me, so that your pet can feel consistent and comfortable while you are gone!
“Kaeleen watched our dog Sadie and cat Mac for a week. She took great care of them. She provided updates and sent pictures. She was respectful to our home. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a great in-house sitter!”

“Caitlin did a wonderful job with Kobe and Xena. She kept me well informed on their status, and shockingly Xena, my cat, actually slept with her one night. Xena is picky! All went well and we definitely will use Caitlin if we leave town again this summer. Thank you Caitlin.”
About: Grew up with a dog ever since I was one, a sweet golden retriever and loved her all her life, help dog/cat sit and dog walk with my sister between her and my new rescue, also grew up with my grandmothers cat, a cat of my own and now a family cat My fully online school schedule gives me a lot of flexibility, allowing me to be available for daytime care, drop-ins, and walks. It also makes overnight stays easy to accommodate when needed! With a large, open backyard, your pet will have plenty of space to run, play, and burn off energy. I provide toys such as balls and use a secure lead setup for safe outdoor fun, plus we have a long, quiet, hilly road that’s perfect for walks. Inside, your pet will find a cozy, welcoming environment with plenty of spots to relax—especially in our spacious, carpeted living room.
About: I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for the last eight years and approximately two years ago adopted my American Bully, Cane Corso mix named Clementine. I even trained her to be a therapy dog through a lot of training and education. I am comfortable working with rescues as well. I love working with all breeds, but specifically I love working with bully mixes too!! I am comfortable with medication administration, as well as working with dogs that have recently had surgery. My dog had TPLO surgery and took six months to recover so I’m willing to support in that process as well! I also have experience working with rescue dogs. I currently work full-time as a social worker, but I am looking to help with pet sitting on the weekends or dog walks earlier in the morning. In my home, my dog is on a strict schedule which includes brushing her teeth twice a day, administering medication in the morning, a structured walk and enrichment. For your pup, I can do whatever is needed!! my dog is also crate trained, and has been training to be a therapy dog. I am comfortable with dogs that are reactive to other dogs as well. I am able to do boarding in my home but your dog would have to be comfortable with my dog so we would have to do a meet and greet. I do not have a fun fenced in backyard, but I live on a rail trail and take my dog on walks there often. I am also comfortable with dropping in visits, walks, and overnight pet sitting.
About: I've worked with pets my whole life, and have worked with dogs professionally for over a year. I bring a depth of knowledge and a willingness to learn that help me adapt to the needs of every animal. I work full time, but primarily have weekends and weekdays evenings and nights available. So if you are looking to take a weekend getaway, or need someone to come check on the pets in the evenings, I'll be happy to work you into my schedule. I make sure pets are fed and cared for to their owners specifications. Medical needs are seen to as a priority, and hygiene, bathroom, and attention needs are always a focus when I am caring for pets.
About: I’ve been pet sitting as long as I remember for friends families especially while growing up and always had dogs and other animals of my own, and now for clients here for a few years, and I’m a corgi mom myself to my 11-year-old, Bowen! I’m super flexible, communicative, and always happy to help whenever I can! I travel often and may be out of area sometimes, but on the plus side I cover a lot of ground and can help a wider range of clients. I currently do not take animals to my home but I do drop in visits and walks for my clients if they’re pet needs relief and if I’m available then I’m happy to help! I always check that the water bowl is full, and you can let me know if I need to feed a meal as well.
About: I grew up with dogs. I had my own since I had my own place. I had a Siberian Husky and a Shiba Inu at the same time so I am no stranger to noise, stubbornness and cute shenanigans. I work full time in West Lebanon NH. I’m usually free around 4:00pm onward for week days and completely open on Weekends. Perfect you to enjoy a date night or have a weekend away! I’ll come to your place so your fur baby feels more at ease without a change of environment. Love talking walking and playing outside with pups, taking them to the dog park is always a treat.

“We highly recommend Nicole. We had the absolute best experience with her and would 100% book her again. She has SO much dog knowledge and experience, and she knew just what to do to care for our 17.5 year-old geriatric Miniature Dachshund. Our dog was completely comfortable and happy with her, and she brought out the absolute best in our dog with both a stroller and regular walk. I can't rave enough about how happy we were with Nicole.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Sunapee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sunapee on Rover is $106.67 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 218 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunapee. 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 Sunapee 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 Sunapee 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 Sunapee 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.

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.
