“Carolina was wonderful and really gave us peace of mind during our trip. She was excellent at communicating and giving updates to us and also left our home clean. She will definitely be rebooked by us in the future!”
“Tammy was awesome! We had a great meet and greet with her - she’s very nice and clearly has lots of love for dogs. While we were on our trip, Tammy sent us lots of pictures and updates and made us feel so happy knowing Penny was in good hands! Our house was left exactly the way we left it and could not thank Tammy enough for being such a great House and Pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!!”
“Brie is an absolute joy to work with! She is friendly, super responsive, sends the BEST pictures and most importantly, our babies LOVE her!! I will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you Brie!!”
“This was the first time I’ve ever left my sweet girl with someone other than a family member or friend! He is super kind and took amazing care of our girl Gracie and loved her like his own which was exactly what we were looking for. He sent us pictures and videos on our trip and communicated thoroughly! Will definitely use him again we loved having him!”
“Kathleen was more than we could have asked for! She really took the time to get to know our anxious puppy and by the time we went on our trip, our dog Honey was comfortable to hang out with her. She is a great communicator and let us know that Honey was doing fine so we could relax and enjoy our vacation. We will definitely be booking her again next time we go out of town!”
“Tuongvi and her Boyfriend were available at the last minute for an out of state trip after another sitter fell through. Despite the stress that caused, I am so relieved it happened. I will absolutely be scheduling future overnights with them. My Boxer-Pit mix has separation anxiety and is dog/animal reactive. I have only left her overnight one other time so needless to say I was nervous about a long weekend away from her. Tuongvi was responsive and communicative from the minute I reached out about booking. She came over prior to the trip so I could show them my space and familiarize them and my dog. During my trip, I received regular pictures and updates. It was abundantly clear my dog was well cared for and loved.”
About: I have helped my mother in the past babysitting and taking care of dogs so I am sure I have the ability to do the same on my own. I am currently not working; taking a little break so I have all the time in the world to help out you and your pets! Making sure they feel comfortable and safe with me. Take them on many walks, play with their toys, and lots of head rubs and head pats!
“Crystal is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. Within 10 seconds of our first meet and greet, I could tell Apollo felt safe with her. She takes such good care of him, gives him all the love, and sends the cutest photo updates. I know I’m leaving him in the best care when she’s watching him. Can’t recommend her enough!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of private commercial kennels and helped with training “challenging” dogs. I enjoy getting to know their different personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Have yet to train any of my fur babies how to make coffee, but I’ll persist! I’m retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available for just one day or whatever the family needs. It’s my pleasure to serve. I will stay with your dog/s the entire booking. They will be my number one priority. It’s best when they can stay in their home.

“Jahci did an amazing job with our two girls. One of them is super shy and timid, but warmed up to Jahci right away. She is timely and the communication was great. She took amazing care of our place as well (pretty sure she left the house cleaner than we did!) We have already booked her for a second time and our girls are looking forward to seeing her again!”
“Journey was great! This is the second time that she’s watched my two dogs and she was awesome. She took excellent care of the dogs and the house and she communicated often with pictures of the dogs. They looked happy and comfortable with her which helped me be at ease and enjoy my vacation fully.”
About: Hi! I’m Derica 😊 I’m a 20-year-old college student who is loving, energetic, and truly enjoys spending time with animals. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me—they bring me so much joy, comfort, and companionship. I’m a consistent and experienced dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for over 200 dogs of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I prioritize patience, safety, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry friend and treat them like one of my own! 🐾💛 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a college student, I have flexibility in my schedule and am generally available during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m able to plan my day around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets receive consistent care and attention. I’m very careful and attentive when caring for pets, whether it’s in my home or theirs. I stick closely to their routine, make sure the space is safe and clean, and always keep an eye on them. I also send regular updates so owners know their pet is happy and in good hands.
About: things to note before moving forward: • minimum stay 2 nights • i do not accept puppies (under 2 years old) • all male dogs must be neutered • your fur baby must be FULLY potty trained • if you crate, please let me know Hey there! I’m a huge animal lover with tons of experience caring for pets of all kinds. From playful pups to cuddly kitties (and even those adorable little critters), I’m here to make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you're away. I love giving them lots of attention, playtime, and, of course, tons of belly rubs and snuggles :) Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for pets with all sorts of personalities & I treat every pet like they’re my own, as anyone should! You can rest easy knowing your pets will be showered with love and care while you're out and about. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members :) As a student with no 9 to 5 job I have tons of time to shower your animals with love, playtime, and attention! Your babies will have my full attention :) I live in a spacious first-floor apartment in a quiet neighborhood, with lots of dog parks and places to explore nearby! There are no neighbors, so your animal will enjoy a peaceful, comfy space. My couch is huge and my bed is super comfy as well and they are welcome to sleep on both!
About: I have been taking care of cats all my life and for the past ten years I've been taking care of dogs as well. I have experience working with animals that aren't my own as well as overnight stays. I am currently not in work, but I typically wake up around 7 am and start my day by feeding my animals and taking my dog for a walk. Then throughout the day I like to spend time with my animals and ensure they get plenty of attention. I have a fenced yard and a super sweet golden retriever who loves to play with all sized animals. He's very gentle and playful and gets along great with other animals. I have a pool in my backyard as well so if your dogs love to swim I can gladly accommodate that.
About: I’ve had my beautiful dog buttercup for about 10 years now and my cat Donnie for about 4 years. I’ve had multiple jobs housesitting for multi animal houses and can’t wait to add your loved ones to my experience. I have no professional obligations currently. The only task I have throughout the day is to drop my partner off to work at 5 AM and pick him up at 3 PM. Open to all care needs. My love for animals makes me very detail oriented when it comes to care. I have cared for my dog through spinal issues and my cat through a urinary blockage.

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitehall
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 791 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitehall. 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 Whitehall 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 Whitehall 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 Whitehall 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.

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.
