“Azucena (Zu) took such great care of Titi over the weekend! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing Titi was in good hands. She followed all instructions perfectly, kept us updated with pictures and videos, and showed so much love and attention to Titi, especially important since she’s a senior dog. We could tell Titi was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Zu went above and beyond, and we truly appreciated her communication and kindness. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. Thank you so much, Zu! ❤️”
“I highly recommend this pet sitter and trainer. With a college education in canine and feline care, she provides much more than basic pet sitting. Every interaction is used to encourage good behavior and discourage unwanted habits. Dog walks become valuable training opportunities, and drop-in visits include both mental and physical enrichment. Her knowledge, professionalism, and dedication help create a positive, structured environment where pets can thrive.”
“I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn to anyone! She was a great dog sitter and did very well with Charlie. She has a natural, gentle way with dogs. She was prompt, personable and professional. I would absolutely hire her again and so should you! !”
“Deborah did an outstanding job with our babies. When I got home neither of them were stressed out from us being gone or from the sitting. She did what she said she would and what we asked from her. We will be rebooking with Deborah again.”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She accepted my Rover booking on very short notice, just a few days before the service, which immediately gave me so much relief. From the start, she was communicative, professional, trustworthy, and incredibly reliable. She took such great care of my pups and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for when I returned home. It was obvious they felt comfortable with her, and they warmed up to her right away — which says everything. Not only were my dogs happy, but my home was also left very tidy and well cared for. Stephanie truly went above and beyond, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and attentive sitter. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“This is the second time Laura has stayed with our two pups, at our home, and we cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of them! She is so considerate and goes above and beyond. We were able to enjoy time away with our granddaughters without any worries. Thank you again Laura! Looking forward to our next vacay!”
“Audrey is a great sitter for my cats. She even took care of my tanks too. My cats are safe and happy. I got informed everyday and never got worried for my babies. I will definetly book her again”
“Alana was wonderful with our baby Kaya. She sent photos, updates and was quick to answer any questions we had. She was able to give our dog her medicine, and took her for her regular walks. We came home to a spotless home, and a happy dog. We look forward to having Alana come back soon, without hesitation. Thank you Alana!”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful looking after my dog, Micha. She was incredibly attentive and took her on long walks, which Micha absolutely loved. She also provided plenty of care, affection, and attention every single time she came to the house to pick her up. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing Micha was in such great hands. I will definitely use her services again!”
“I HIGHLY recommend working with Lux (Emily B.). We needed a last minute cat sitter to come do a house stay. We were hesitant about leaving because our elderly cat had recently gotten injured, but Lux kept a careful eye on them the whole time and sent regular updates and sweet photos. They are kind, communicative, responsible, and genuinely love animals. They even stayed a bit longer than required to make sure our cat had company till we got home. So thoughtful, we will definitely be working with them again!”
“Denys was great with baloo I was able to see at times they got along well and he had plenty of good walks, I came back from vacation and baloo looks in great condition and also well fed...denys followed our instructions well and was very respectful of the house environment ,I highly recommend denys to anyone who wants excellent care of their pets...again thank you Denys and rover for this great experience!”

“Connie did an amazing job looking after our dog and our home while we were away! Our dog, Layla, is a bit older and has her own little quirks, so we are always a little anxious leaving her. However, Connie was so patient and gentle that she got Layla to warm up to her in no time. Connie maintained fantastic communication throughout the entire stay, sending lots of updates and sweet photos that completely put our minds at ease. On top of the incredible pet care, she took wonderful care of our house as well. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Connie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring pet sitter.”

I have to admit I was super nervous leaving my boys for 2 weeks, especially with my cat having congestive heart failure but Ruth was wonderful and followed instructions, came back to our home and the boys looking great. Thank you Ruth, I will be rebooking you again.

I highly recommend Karla to watch your fur babies! She’s so sweet and very attentive. She did such an amazing job staying with my 3 dogs. I felt so at ease with them being under her care while I was away traveling. She stayed in touch with me, sent updates, and photos which I greatly appreciate. Thank you Karla!!!
Sofia was awesome with our pups 🐶 she was very attentive and kept them company while we took a short vacation. She is very responsive when you reach out and a very caring pet caregiver I would highly recommend Sofia without hesitation for your pet/house sitting needs thanks again Sofia for taking such great care of our furry kids and we plan to use Sofia again very soon!!!

Alexis took wonderful care of Megan, Saber, and Knight over the past five days. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in caring, capable hands while we were away. She was attentive, dependable, and clearly gave each of them love and attention based on their individual needs. We came home to three happy, relaxed dogs, which says everything. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter!
Stephanie took great care of our girl Raven (German shepherd/belgian malinois mix for reference on the energy level if you are looking for that). We got an update for everything and she sent a ton of photos which we appreciated greatly. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone and everyone. She can handle high energy breeds (and I’m sure low energy breeds). Any care instructions we left were followed meticulously! And my girl absolutely loved snuggling up to her ❤️
This is the second time she’s helped us out and it honestly feels amazing leaving our dogs with someone we trust completely. We never worry about them for a second. If anything, I almost feel guilty because we trust her so much that we literally forget we even own dogs… at least I do 😂 She’s the best and we couldn’t recommend her more.
Stephanie was an outstanding sitter for our dog and cat during our two-week trip. She sent frequent photo and video updates. She quickly mastered their routines and won over our cat who ended up seeking her out for cuddles at night. She went above and beyond coordinating a delivery with our landlord, and leaving the house clean. Our dog was relaxed and happy the entire time, and the cat was clearly loved. We came home to two very content pets and total peace of mind. We highly recommend Stephanie! 🐾
Sandra is simply AMAZING! I honestly felt like I was leaving my fur baby with family. She took such wonderful care of my doodle, showering him with love and attention. The detailed updates she sent telling me about what he was doing, how he was feeling, and even what he ate, put my mind completely at ease. I’m so happy to have found Sandra, and from now on, she’s the only one I’ll trust with my pet! Thank you, Sandra, for being so genuine, kind, and truly passionate about animals. You’ve earned a lifelong client in me! :-)

FAQs for House Sitting - The Crossings
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in The Crossings on Rover is $49.95 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 2,934 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across The Crossings. 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 The Crossings 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 The Crossings 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 The Crossings 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 The Crossings. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
