“I've already rebooked with Ruth. We did a meet and greet with the pups since I have one that is very skiddish and is hesitant with strangers and by the end of the visit my pup would sit on the couch with Ruth! I felt very good knowing my pups were safe and being looked after while I was gone. She was phenomenal with the timing of my travels and wonderfully respectful of my home. I am beyond excited to have a reliable dog sitter, highly recommend!”
“I cannot recommend Charity enough! She provided a full week of in-home care for my two senior American Eskimo dogs, and it was a fantastic experience. It is always nerve-wracking leaving older dogs behind, but they were in the best possible hands. From managing their routines to giving them the extra patience and affection they need, everything was handled perfectly. It gave me total peace of mind knowing they were comfortable in their own home and well looked after. I will definitely be booking with Charity again!”

About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve shared my life with my beloved dog (Bruno) since he was just 2 months old, and he is now 14 years old. Bruno has always been a challenge and huge motivation for me, as he can be anxious and reactive due to early experiences in his life; also a cocker Spaniel’s thing that can manifest within the breed. Growing alongside him has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, understanding, and adapting care to a dog’s changing needs throughout life. As a psychotherapist, I bring a calm, observant, and compassionate approach to caregiving. I also hold an international certificate in K9 puppy raising and training, which has deepened my knowledge of canine development and training. Fun fact! Im interested in Animal Assisted Therapy and that’s my next professional goal. I love spending time outdoors and exploring nature, and I enjoy making walks and playtime safe, enriching, and fun. Whether caring for a playful puppy, an energetic adult dog, or a beloved senior, my goal is to help every dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I understand that your dog is family, and I will treat them with the same care, respect, and attention I’d want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away! I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the day. I can plan walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their usual feeding, exercise, playtime, and rest schedules. I also have flexibility to provide companionship and regular updates while their families are away. My schedule allows me to be intentional about the time I dedicate to each pet, ensuring they receive attentive, loving care without feeling rushed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my priorities. Since I share my life with a senior dog and a cat, I understand how important it is to maintain routines, respect each pet’s individual needs, and provide a calm, safe environment. Specially with anxious and/or reactive dogs. For walks: I use secure leash handling, follow your preferred routes and instructions, and pay attention to your dog’s behavior and surroundings. I always prioritize safety over distance or pace. For drop-in visits: I follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, litter box maintenance, playtime, and any other agreed-upon needs. I make sure doors and gates are secure before leaving. For overnight stays: I respect your home and your pet’s familiar routines, providing companionship, supervision, and a consistent schedule to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. Working from home gives me flexibility to coordinate visits and provide attentive care. I communicate with pet parents through messages and photos, and I follow their instructions regarding emergencies, veterinary care, and household rules. Before every booking, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet to learn about your pet’s personality, routine, health needs, and any fears or triggers. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your beloved companion is in caring, responsible hands.
“Cathryn was awesome! She took care of our fur babies like if they were her own. We have some needy fur babies with a few medical issues, but she made sure that they took their medication and were cared for!! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, sent tons of pictures and she took care of our home. We had some trouble with our return flights and she was very flexible and willing to stay an extra night to ensure that our pups were taken care of. We would totally recommend her and we are definitely booking her again!”
“Khayla was great! She kept us informed throughout our time away with messages and pictures. Our one dog started having an unexpected illness that caused him to have accidents in the house and she let us know and cleaned up after him so graciously. We would welcome her back and recommend her to anyone needing a great sitter!”
About: I have hundreds of services completed with excellent reviews on another platform and am taking my skills and experience to this one. I've always had dogs and always connected with animals, and friends and family have recognized that affinity and felt comfortable and trusting their fur babies to my care over the years. I've worked with shy dogs, anxious dogs, aging dogs, dogs with high medical needs, puppies, power breed dogs, tiny dogs, and pretty much any other kind you can imagine. I'm looking forward to giving your pet the same high level of care! I have a flexible schedule that I control, so I have a lot of availability to help you care for your pets. I don't even mind the early morning or late evening walks! I have many regular clients, and they tend to pick me when they need someone reliable (to care for their pets when they're away, to show up on time for a 6am walk before an important procedure, to care for a dog who needs extra patience or care for medical needs, etc.). I was a store assistant manager for 15 years, so I know how to keep calm in emergency situations and understand the responsibility of having people who are relying on me. I also have a musical background, so I'll probably end up singing to your animals like a Disney princess at some point.
“Bennett has watched my dogs a couple of time now but I continue to be impressed. He scheduled a meet up before our dates so we could touch base about changes to the dogs. He also remains unfazed by the energetic nature of my two rascals. So thankful for his consistent good care while I am away.”
“Tyler did a wonderful job in both taking care of our 5 dogs but also in keeping us informed throughout our trip. We are so happy that we have found a trusted person to work with for all of our trips.”
About: Reliable animal lover with professional caregiving experience working in daycare. I’m patient, attentive, active, and love making pets feel safe and happy while you’re away Im a leasing agent so i have a lot of down time during lunches. Some times i get off days during the week and lunch breaks during everyday. Ive babysat and housesat a lot growing up. For family and friends and some families i worked for while i was at a daycare center. I have 2 dogs at home. I also work at an apartment complex and we do events including dogs so im very experienced
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have had my dog since 2019. I pet sit for friends and family whenever needed. Our pets are so important and it’s hard being away from them! I would make sure I take care of your dog like I care for my own. I work from home full time but have the ability to work from anywhere there is internet available. Evening and morning walks are ideal during the days that I work. I’m off Saturday/Sunday/Monday I will follow any rules that you have for your pets. Everyone cares for their pets a little differently so it’s important to keep that routine. Going on walks if the dog is used to a leash or playing in the backyard is okay with me. I currently walk my own medium size dog on a leash daily as well as exercise at the dog park.
“Wonderful experience having Alex and Christine house sit and take care of our little dog. They did a great job, sent messages every day and pictures knowing that we missed our sweet companion. Highly recommend them, you will not be sorry.”
“After a long trip, I came home to a happy and content dog, and a home that looked like I hadn't left. She also handled a concern about Roy, my elderly dog, perfectly. She worked with the Vet, got the meds and and started him on them that evening. Grace did a great job. She is a great communicator, which was very much appreciated while I was away. I highly recommend her and plan to use her services again this fall.”
“This is the first time we have used Rover, and Sydney did a great job of caring for them with regular walks, pictures, and kept the house clean. We would certainly use her again.”
“Christina sent daily pictures and videos of my boys for me! She accommodated us over Christmas making sure they boys didn’t have up stay for b a long time at a kennel! She even got them a Christmas gift!! Thank you!”
“We couldn’t ask for a better Rover than Adriana. She took her duties seriously taking great care of our dog Delilah while staying at our house. Very professional and would recommend her to anyone.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Weldon is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Weldon
This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have been more fortunate to find Gunner to care for my dogs on such short notice. I have two Lhasa Apsos who are used to having someone around most of the time. Bentley loves constant attention and cuddles, which can be a lot to keep up with, and Sully is deaf, blind, and allergic to nearly everything. Caring for Sully presents unique challenges and is no easy task. Gunner was kind enough to stay in our home so Sully could remain comfortable in his familiar surroundings. From the moment we met him, it was clear he genuinely cared about animals, and he treated both of my dogs as if they were his own. I know caring for them isn't always easy, but he handled everything with patience, compassion, and professionalism. For the first time in a very long time, I was able to truly relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dogs were safe, happy, and well cared for. That peace of mind is priceless. I would absolutely love to have Gunner care for them again in the future, assuming my two pups didn't scare him away! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter.

The average cost of House Sitting in Weldon is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $53 per night.

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 Weldon 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 Weldon 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 Weldon 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 Weldon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
