“Brandy was an excellent overnight sitter. She treated Winnie, my awesome beagle mix, with love and affection. But she was also responsible, careful, and respectful of my home. She kept me up to date with their day-to-day activities by sharing texts and photos with me. I knew that Winnie would be in good hands as soon as I met Brandy, and my judgment was confirmed when I returned to find my pet well and my home tidy. I give Brandy my highest recommendation.”

About: I have lifelong experience with pups of all kinds, having at least 2 in my household since I was a kid. I consistently care for my neighbor's and friend's dogs and always receive positive feedback! I also have plenty of experience with both puppies and senior dogs! Can care for cats as well! I'm a full-time college student, so my schedule varies day to day. I find plenty of time between and after classes where I can tend to your pups! I'm in an apartment so unfortunately I cannot take care of your pups at my home, only client's homes. However I am super flexible when it comes to your dogs needs and I can work around any obstacles or special preferences in your homes!

About: I’m a genuine dog lover who enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether you’re busy, traveling, or just need an extra hand, I’m happy to help give your dog the love and attention they deserve. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I truly enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to help others feel at ease knowing their furry family member is in caring hands. I work at home so I do 24/7 care. My world is surrounded with dogs, I just love them so I work with them and everyday it's a blast. I have a wonderful 2 acre backyard that's fenced for my fuzzy guests to stretch their legs and enjoy a park all to themselves. I spend my hours outside working on little projects so your baby's will get to just relax or play to their heart's content and then after a long day I like to end it with cuddles and movie on the couch.

About: I have been owning pets since I was a child and I have loved animals in general ever since. I’ve cared for young animals to older animals I walk them and bathe them and I just love hanging out with animals! I go to school on Mondays and Tuesdays, and I have a job other days but I only work morning shifts and get off around 5:30–to 6:00 depending on the day! I unfortunately cannot have other animals in my house. I have 6 animals which include one dog and 5 cats, I have a fenced in yard where my dog hangs out to go potty and get some air and my cats have a lot of toys to play with! And I can do the same thing in your house with your fur children!

About: I've been working with dogs since high school. First volunteering at the shelter and working at a daycare (mainly with dogs) and then progressing into some training. I've been working with cats almost all my life, fostering, volunteering and then eventually having my own!! I'm comfortable adminteresting meds to cats (oral, or inhalers) and walking moderate reactive dogs. I have a flexable schedule, generally with more availability during the evening 2-6pm and mornings 6-7am. If you are flexable on times we can make it work! I offer a meet and greet to allow everyone to meet and to go over any directions, and locations of items. This gives time for your pets to get to know me and for any questions to be asked. I love to read, and have found great success with pet parents who leave written instructions and contact numbers.

About: As a Kennel Worker and Veterinary Assistant at Crosspointe Animal Hospital, I fed and exercised animals, cleaned kennels and treatment areas, safely restrained pets during exams and procedures, assisted with vaccinations and routine treatments, monitored animals for signs of illness or injury, and updated veterinarians on patient conditions. I also interacted with pet owners and helped ensure animals received attentive, compassionate care. I am always available, and pet care fits easily into my routine. I can adjust my schedule as needed to provide consistent feeding, cleaning, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day or week without conflict. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain feeding and litter box routines, secure doors and entry points, and monitor behavior closely. My experience with both domestic and feral cats at an animal hospital, along with cat-sitting for friends, has taught me to use calm, patient handling to build trust and ensure each pet feels secure and well cared for.

FAQs for House Sitting - Verona

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Verona is $53 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $64 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 424 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 , 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 .

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Verona. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
