“Laura did an amazing job with our boys! She sent updates and pictures and all of them were happy and well cared for when we got home. She also left the house clean! We will be using her again very soon!”
“Isabelle took fantastic care of our two dogs and the house while we were out of town! She left the house tidy and was very respectful of our space and our wishes. I expect to ask her to come again the next time we need help!”
“Emma was amazing with our dogs, my little one can be a bit of a challenge with being diabetic, but Emma was so great with her and our big boy was so sad he was looking for her the night we got back, I highly recommend her if you need someone to stay overnight she took care of the house and cleaned up after herself, will definitely use her again”
“Amber was so proactive and attentive with our senior baby Maya!! Our girl usually struggles to warm up to strangers, but she made fast friends with Amber. We also received tons of pictures and videos while on a trip out of town. We'll be in touch again soon - thank you so much!!”
About: Hello! My name is Hannah, I, have worked with dogs and cats for 5 years now, 3 years as a manager at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, the only reason i left was to pursue my career (a hairstylist ) but now on my off days i miss taking care of dogs and cats 😁. I love animals so much, I have owned animals as well. I enjoy playing and cuddling with them and I keep an eye on them to make sure they are okay. I have taken care of many dogs in all different stages of life. I have a soft heart for furry friends and want my clients to feel comfortable and relaxed knowing that I am there to watch their dogs. I am a great communicator as well. I have also rescued a puppy when i was in a foreign country and took him to a humane society. My boyfriend has a German Shepard andI work with a lot of German Shepard’s, huskies as well as tiny dogs like chihuahuas, spaniel mixes etc If you are also in need of a stylist 👀 (HannahAbbyHair) I’m a hairstylist, some weeks are busy some aren’t. My schedule currently that works is Monday-Thursday available. But you can always message me and work something out I’m very flexible!! I enjoy being goofy and having fun while also making sure they know the limits and guidelines! I worked at a daycare and would manage 15-30 dogs at a time so you learn the ropes pretty quick! I love cats as well but i don’t pressure them for attention. If they want to they will is my logic (:
“This was my first time having someone house sit. I was nervous but after meeting Nita and seeing how the dogs loved her first sight put my mind at ease. I think they got a little spoiled with the food topper she made them, now they expect me to do it (lol). She kept me updated by sending me pics and videos. I was able to go enjoy my birthday knowing that my babies were taking care of. I would most definitely recommend Ms. Nita and use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home. I’ve often been asked to help sit or take care of friends and family pets as well. I love all animals and enjoy getting to help care for them! During my visits I would love to get to know your pets and love them just as I would my own so while you’re away they don’t feel alone. I currently have two cats as well as a becoming senior pit mix of my own to care for. Although I have never had to care for a special needs pet, my dog has been through several intense surgeries of removing cancerous tumors. So I am familiar with giving oral medicine and making sure to take extra care and attention to an injured/ recovering pet. But I am willing to learn any needs your pet may have! I do currently work a 8-5 job but I am off every weekend and holiday and would love to fill that time with helping others. I also do not mind afternoon/ night walks or check ins during the week. I take great care to provide what my own pets need and would do the same for others. I hope to be able to provide the best service possible for them. Making sure they have plenty of food and water as well as plenty of attention!
“Forever will use Lori when we have to go out of town! We had the worst travel luck this weekend and Lori stayed to make sure our 3 dogs were taken care of while we figured out a way to get home. So thankful for the love and care Lori provides for our fur babies”
“Claudia is absolutely fantastic! She stayed with my two dogs while we were out of town for 4 days. Each morning and evening she sent an update on how everything was going. She sent photos and in the evening a cute video recap! One of our dogs is a senior who is not eating every meal any more, and Claudia was great at monitoring how much he ate and even took his food bowl upstairs to him to encourage him to eat when he needed to. Our house looked great when we came home as well. Claudia is an amazing pet and house sitter and I absolutely recommend her! Thank you Claudia!”
“We had an amazing experience with Amanda! She was so kind and attentive! All 3 of our dogs loved her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town! She kept us updated, took great care of them, and left our home clean and tidy. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with her again!”
“He was amazing! I didn’t have to stress about my babies one time while we were away! I have two medium sized dogs and a cat but that was a cake walk for Justin. He left our home better than he found it, had amazing communication, and was a quick replied”
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, from dogs, cats and horses to turtles, hedgehogs and even chinchillas and am very comfortable and capable of providing the top level of care to your pets I work professionally as a barber on a flexible appointment based schedule that allows for me to be home most of the time with my children and pets. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs who are crate trained. My six-year-old daughter is very compassionate and hands-on with caring for the animals in our home. I have several years of housesitting and pet setting for others and have been told I leave homes better than I found them and come highly recommended.
“Again Maya went above and beyond to care for our 12 year old Layla girl (and our home) while we were out of the Country for over a week. She did everything we requested and more and most importantly kept in touch daily, sent photos and details of their day while we were away. She is kind, responsible and trustworthy. Maya is our go to pet sitter for Layla. Thank you Maya for being amazing!🤩”
“Ty provided exceptional care for our dogs, demonstrating genuine love and understanding of their needs. His regular updates and photos helped ease our worries while we were away. Knowing that both our high-energy and reactive dogs were well cared for and enjoyed their time with him is invaluable. Will definitely be booking with Ty again!”
“Cenite took great care of my dog and two cats while we were out of town! We came back to and our house was just as clean as we had left it. She was very patient with our shy dog and got him out for a walk every day. She is very easy to communicate with and accommodates all of our family’s needs! Thank you, Cenite!”
“Sara is awesome! Our dogs are so excited to see her when she arrives. She has house sat for our 2 beagles a couple of times and we would love for her to sit for us in the future. We feel so comfortable knowing she is home taking care of our babies. She sends great updates and takes care of anything needed/asked, including our multitude of supplements we give our dogs.”
“This is our second time booking Querhea and she did an amazing job! She gave our dog medication four times a day and cleaned the house. She was very commicative which was so appreciated! We would book her again for sure.”
About: My husband Justin and I have been married since 2018 and we have 3 fur babies. We welcomed our first child in March 2021. We love training, caring for, and loving on animals. Justin is a 5th grade teacher and Lauren works from home full time with an educational technology company. We would love to care for your fur baby like our own. Because Lauren works from home you pup can come in and out of the house all day and enjoy some indoor and outdoor playtime! We have 2 rescue dogs and one rescue cat who we love! Our cat has a home in the office with a baby gate up. No need to worry if your dog is not comfortable with cats, she can stay in the office with her cat tree and all the things she needs. she doesn't venture out from there much anyways. We would be happy to bring your fur babies into our house or stop in for playtime or a walk! Just let me know what your needs are and we will accommodate in anyway! I also have experience house training, and walk training puppies. We just request your fur baby is not aggressive as we have other animals and a small child in the house! I look forward to meeting you, and caring for your fur baby. I currently work from home, so I am able to let the dogs out as often as needed for potty breaks or playtime. This also means they get love all throughout the day! My husband is a school teacher so he is at work during the week. We enjoy taking family walks in the evening after a days work. When your fur baby is in our house we treat them as our own. We have a animal friendly home, allow pets on furniture, and have lots of toys to play with. We have water bowls and dog beds throughout the house. The dogs also love going in the backyard to play with us and run around. We just ask you bring the dogs food and feeding instructions. You are welcome to bring beds or anything your fur baby needs to feel comfortable, but not required. We have lots of beds, bowls, toys, etc. We do have a child born in 2021. She is very good with animals, respects their space, and knows how to approach new animals. She loves playing with them and loving on them while they are in our house. Please if you are unsure or aware your dog is not good with children, please identify an alternate sitter. Although our daughter is very good with dogs/animals, we want to ensure a good experience for both our family and your fur baby.

Here’s a polished review you can post: This was our second time using Amber, and I felt just as comfortable as the first time having her not only in our home but also caring for our little spoiled herd. She is trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely cares about our dogs. She always keeps us updated with photos, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear our pups are happy and well cared for, and knowing they’re in such good hands makes traveling so much easier. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Amber again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Venus on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,980 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Venus. 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 Venus 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 Venus 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 Venus 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 Venus. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
