“We had to go out of town for our daughter's wedding and did not have to worry at all about our fur babies. They were all well loved and taken care of. She even did some house cleaning that I did not request or expect! I could not be happier with our experience with her.”
“Sara did a great job taking care of my babies. She kept me informed during my travels and sent great photos. My house was kept great and the furbabies were happy when I arrived.”
“Susan took great care of Sullivan while out of town for one night. She successfully administered his medication, gave him lots of cuddles & outside time & provided pictures as well as updates. She was also very willing to help out with a last-minute request. We definitely plan to use Susan again in the future!”

“Anais was such a great sitter for our Doberman pinscher! We had her boarded in our home. She came and did such a great job with her. In all the pictures Mazikeen showed her playful and sassy self and was so happy to see Anais. She went over and beyond when in our home and did things that exceeded our expectations. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for someone to care for your pets! Thank you Anais! You are always welcome in our home with our fur baby 💕”

“Jennifer is excellent and an absolute professional! She put us at ease in a new location with some anxious dogs! The pups might have had a better "staycation" than our vacation. You defintely should book her!”
“Aaron was wonderful and truly loved spending time with Gracie and Roxie! Aaron sent pictures and updates daily, which was greatly appreciated! He let me know that Roxie took a little bit of time to warm up but then was herself with being a big snuggler, and that Gracie did great on her walks. Last time we had made this trip we had an 8 hour delay, and asked Aaron ahead of time if something like this happened again could he stay, and he said he could. Luckily all went well and we were able to arrive home on time to two very happy and very well cared for pups! Will definitely use Aaron again!!”

About: I have over five years of experience providing reliable pet care for animals of all types. Throughout my undergraduate years, I managed a barn, where I was responsible for daily feeding, turnout, stall cleaning, administering basic care, and monitoring the health and well-being of each animal. This hands-on experience gave me extensive knowledge of animal behavior, health, and proper care. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other pets, I understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, compassionate, and dependable care. I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work in Moncks Corner and live in Summerville, which allows me to serve a wide area. I am available for overnight stays and can provide consistent care throughout the day. I have a one-hour lunch break at noon, allowing me to stop by for potty breaks, walks, feedings, or check-ins. I finish work at 4:30 p.m. each day, so I’ll be with your pets for the rest of the evening and overnight. I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly and make sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by maintaining their normal routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, provide plenty of exercise and playtime, and ensure they always have fresh water and a clean environment. During house sits, I also treat my clients’ homes with the utmost respect by keeping everything clean, secure, and just as I found it. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

Saundra was wonderful with our dog, Dixie. She was very responsive with text messaging and sending photos of Dixie. Our home was clean when we arrived back home, maybe even a little cleaner, which is appreciated. It was overall a great experience and would definitely use Saundra again!
Allison exceeded all expectations! This was my first time using Rover and I could not have asked for a more trustworthy and kind person to watch my animals and home while we were away. 5 stars simply isn’t enough! She checks in regularly, sends videos and pictures and looks out for everything I typically would look out for. She is worth every penny!!! ❤️ Thank you Allison!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Tarry Town
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tarry Town on Rover is $44.4 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 1,652 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tarry Town. 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 Tarry Town 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 Tarry Town 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 Tarry Town 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 Tarry Town. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
