Whitney stayed with our Great Dane for a second time and was amazing! We got a video each day along with photos. She also took care of my kid’s reptiles. She is super responsive and kind. I’ll continue to use her when we go away! The best :)

We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, Leigh went absolutely above and beyond every expectation we had. Her communication was fantastic the entire time — we received regular updates, photos, and could clearly see how loved and cared for our pup was while we were away. She didn’t just cover the basics; she truly invested time and attention into making sure he was happy, comfortable, and mentally stimulated with lots of playtime, enrichment, and snuggles. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him like he was her own. On top of that, she completely spoiled him and us by making sure his kennel stayed clean and even giving him a quick bath before out return! Coming home to a happy, clean, relaxed pup was such an incredible feeling. Reliable, thoughtful, attentive, and incredibly kind — we would trust her again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Emily did a great job with our very active puppy. She stayed in touch with us and kept us very informed during her stay. We had outside construction that made a dirty mess of our yard and she had to deal with the mess and keeping the dog out of the mess. I am sure it wasn’t easy or fun. She adjusted and didn’t complain. Our house looked great and our puppy was well taken care of.

Emma was so great. She showed up early and stayed the entire requested time. She took really good care of my baby boy and even brought in a heavy package that was delivered a day early so it wouldn't be sitting outside. She was very communicative and respective of my home. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone.

About: (Disclaimer…We are licensed, if any sitter on this platform is not they are operating illegally and there is no way to insure your pup is being cared for appropriately) CHECK US OUT ON FACEBOOK “Happy pups stay with us” This isn’t a side job, this is my life! Your pup isn’t left alone. I am home all day everyday for your pup to have a happy stay while you’re away! I am passionate about Pups and want your fur baby to have as close to home experiences as they can while there here. They will have water and food 24/7. Frequent potty breaks. Most importantly non-stressful environment. I’ve worked at kennels and most dogs are scared, it’s loud, they are caged for 95% of there stay, with very few/short potty break and left unattended. This is not what I would want for my pups and I’m here for yours to not have to have this experience either. I do have two fur baby’s of my own who will be there to be your pets best friend while your away (fun.loving Husky/Gentle Great Pyrenees ). I want to make a place you know when there here there family! In the event they do not fancy my pups there is no need to worry I have accommodations for this too! Please give me a call with any questions or concerns you may have. I know how special your pet is to you as mine are my baby’s and I want to have a place for you to feel they are getting the care they deserve! Get up at 6am potty and feed. Fed again around 3:30pm or I can follow any instructions on feeding you prefer. Around 8:30pm we are in for the night. We play all day. I care for your pets the same as I do my own. They are allowed on furniture and are spoiled with love and affection. We have a 60’x25’ oasis for pups that do not want to interact with the others and need separate living quarters while they stay. We are still very much around as it is part of the home and we hang out there a lot. There a door that opens up right to the fenced area where they go on potty breaks and have fun outdoors completely enclosed and the other won’t be allowed out while they are out. There’s always a tv on and I will have it on the dog channel for them. Theirs is beds for them to lay on and plenty of space to run and play. Best case they do all become best pup friends well they will have the run of the house and play a lot! All pups must have up to date rabies vaccination with proof prior to their stay. This is for the safety of your pup and others and is also required by law. As I said before this isn’t a side job we are a fully established in home boarding/daycare pup paradise! I want to stress that because I’m not just someone who thought I like dogs, let me sign up and watch them. It takes yrs of experience to understand these amazing companions and how to care for them when placed in unfamiliar environment. We want them to thrive, because so comfortable they can’t wait to come back. Enjoy there stay so they have happy memories forever. Yes we all have pups but when placing them in an environment they are not used to, I know I would only allow someone fully knowledgeable of all aspects to ever watch my pup. Happy Pups Stay with Us…look us up, your pup will thank you for it! Someone is home all the time so your pup is never left alone. I offer drop off at 6am which is if your just dropping off. I have a family and to avoid them being disturbed you will only be able to drop off this early, not come in. If you’d like to come in it will have to be later in the day. Pick up: latest is 9pm unles otherwise confirmed. If you need earlier drop off you will have to schedule the night before. I have 2 fence in portions of the yard. Pups are never crated they live with us just like they are part of the family. I do have more than one dog staying at a time rover does not have an option to change this which I previously only took one client. I only take on dogs who are friendly with others and friendly with my children.

About: By word of mouth I’ve been recommended to care for the dogs of my friends, family, community members. I’ve had two dogs in my lifetime and am willing to love yours as if they were my own while maintaining their needs and giving you lots of pup-dates I work part time mid day during weekdays at the YMCA and part time some nights at Tavola. I’m willing to work with you and care for your pet around these obligations! Though at this time I am unable to board, I will make sure your pet still feels comfortable in your own home even without you.

About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.

Our two dogs were in good hands with Whitney. She works full time so we had to have helpers to let our dogs out during the day. She left our home in excellent condition and she sent us pictures of the dogs daily. She was very responsive to texts as well.

FAQs for House Sitting - Tyrone

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Tyrone on Rover is $30.53 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 183 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tyrone. 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 Tyrone 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 Tyrone 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 Tyrone 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 Tyrone. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
