“Brian dog sat in our home for the week and was absolutely wonderful! He kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout our trip, which gave us such peace of mind. He was incredibly attentive, caring, and loving with our pup. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Glad we booked with him again!”

“Kate spent two weeks with our 17 year old cat, Hunter. For the first four nights she also cared for our 5 year old Labrador retriever, Orli. Kate provided daily updates & great photos. It was obvious from the photos that both Hunter & Orli were comfortable and relaxed with Kate. Kate had no problem giving Hunter his twice daily insulin injections & keeping him on his feeding/meds schedule. It’s a comfort to know your fur babies are well cared for when you are away. We will definitely book Kate again to care for Hunter & Orli!”

“Danuta was absolutely fantastic - she and my dog became instant friends! She did in-house care for us as a huge heat wave hit, and she made little dog popsicles for my pooch to help keep her cool and have a fun treat. They went in walks and explored daily - Danuta was great, and will be a regular dog sitter/walker for us!!”

“Giselle is hands down the best sitter we’ve had. She went above and beyond in every way. Our elderly cat, who is usually skittish with new people, took to, her right away. My dog Cody was smitten, and we felt at ease the whole time we were gone. The pictures we received each day were proof positive they were happy. Giselle has a real gift with animals. This was our very first Rover experience, and we hit the Jackpot with her!”

About: I've grown up with dogs of all ages, giving me a natural understanding of their needs. I'm patient, attentive, and experienced with puppies and senior dogs. My lifelong experience helps me provide tailored care and make every dog feel safe and loved. I've had my dog for 6 years, and caring for her is a natural part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure she's well-fed, take her on walks, and spend quality time playing in the garden or exploring the forest together. We have fun games like hide-and-seek, which keeps her mentally and physically active. Evenings are often spent cuddling on the couch while watching TV, creating a strong bond of trust and comfort. Pet care isn’t just a task for me—it’s part of my life, filled with love, attention, and a deep understanding of a dog’s needs I prioritize safety and comfort by providing a secure, clean environment where pets feel at ease. I follow each pet's routine, ensuring they feel at home. I’m attentive to their needs, offering regular walks, playtime, and affection. Trust is key—I communicate openly with owners to provide peace of mind and consistent care tailored to their routine and needs.

I highly recommend Morgan to take excellent care of your pet.”

Danuta was the best dog and cat sitter I have ever had! I knew from the moment she walked in that she was the one. My dog took to her immediately, and he is a bit shy and reserved. I was so nervous about leaving them for two weeks, but she sent pictures and videos all day, I felt like I was with them. She was so good with my dog that I was afraid he wouldn't want to come with me! Same with my cat, it usually takes her a while to warm up to anyone, but she seemed so comfortable with Danuta. She was absolutely wonderful! I will definitely hire her again. I highly recommend her!

Kate truly went above and beyond! I had some last-minute changes in the middle of my booking, but she kindly stood by me and helped sort everything out, demonstrating her big love for animals. I really like her and will definitely call her again whenever I need someone, and she's always willing to take care of my babies. They had a wonderful time, and even to this day, they still look for her.

After another sitter canceled our booking at the last minute, we needed someone to house-sit within a day or two, and Alexandra came to the rescue! She took wonderful care of our cats for nine days and kept us updated throughout our trip. The photos she sent gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Alexandra again!

She sent us updated pictures and gave us a nice little summary before she left the house. We definitely will be booking with her again, thank you so much!!!

Jennifer was wonderful, and we highly recommend her. She stayed in our home for 9 days, taking excellent care of our dog, Luna, as well as our fish, Bluey, and our plants. She communicated daily, often multiple times, sending thoughtful updates and photos that gave us great peace of mind. Seeing Luna happy and well cared for made being away much easier. Jennifer went above and beyond, caring for Luna, maintaining Bluey, watering our plants, and keeping our home in great condition. We returned to a happy dog, thriving plants, a well-cared-for fish, and a spotless house. She is responsible, kind, and attentive, and we would absolutely trust her again.

Jojo was an amazing sitter! We have a 5-year old rescue and started fostering another 5-year old who had been with us for only two weeks, so we were hesitant to reach out to anybody new. Jojo played with them all day, took them out for pup cups, and kept us updated the whole time. We could not be happier and will reach out to Jojo for our future pet sitting needs!

I'm a bit of a hoverparent, so I was really happy with how communicative Jade was the entire time we were away. We got lots of updates on what our little weirdo was doing and how he was responding, complete with pics and videos. He seemed to have had a great time with Jade and we returned home to a totally chill and unbothered doggo.

I wish I could give 100 stars! Kevin is just amazing, he communicates any needs and is so great with all our asks of him. We get plenty of photos where our dogs just look so happy to have him. He walks them daily (we didn’t even ask for that) and sends photos of the cuddles and love they get while we are gone. Our house is always so clean, and he runs the laundry so we don’t have to. He’s literally perfect. Our vacations are just that, vacations, knowing he was here let us enjoy everyday. Thank you so much Kevin!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Verona

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Verona on Rover is $88.8 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 18,832 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Verona. 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 Verona 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 Verona 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 Verona 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 Verona. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
