“First time with Taylor for an overnight house and dog sitting. Taylor had great communication, and excellent care of my two pups! She contacted me promptly when she had a question about giving meds to one of my dogs. I came home to happy beasts, and that's the best.”
“Mark was wonderful with our Loki and made both him and us very comfortable while we were gone. He communicated frequently and sent us pictures everyday. This was our first experience with rover and we couldn’t have asked for better. Will be using him again without a doubt!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with our dogs. She went above and beyond with walks and play time and communicated regularly. We didn't have one minute of worry while we were gone. We couldn't have asked for better care!!”
“Lily was great! Professional communication, gave us an update and photo while we gone, and left our home tidy. I would definitely recommend and plan to book her service again.”
“Bobbie went above and beyond in the care of my to dog Ollie. It snowed while I was gone and she even shoveled my driveway and walk which was much appreciated. Bobbie did a great job and definitely will call on her again to care for Ollie .”
About: I was an in home pet-sitter in college (1999-2003) where I would take care of their dogs, cats, and home while they were away. Honestly, it was the best job I've ever had! In addition, I have been a dog trainer since 1992. Training my own dogs is a passion I enjoy sharing through teaching in classes. Also, I worked in a few vet clinics over 18 years where I was a receptionist and veterinary assistant. Currently, I have a 15 year old papillon, 2 year old Brittnay, and 2 year old cat. These guys are my pride and joy, just like the other pets I've had since I was young!! Currently, I do work full to part time, but willing to adjust my schedule to fit your needs. My schedule is very flexible in the afternoon, evenings and weekends. In my home, the cat has free reign of the house. The dogs are crated when we are not able to be home and at night. My previous dogs may have had full reign, but right now my senior and young dogs cannot be trusted. When I visit someone's home, it is my priority to take care of your pet like you would if you were home!
“Jess was an AWESOME day sitter. Communication was top notch, and they provided us with lots of pictures and videos. We knew our pup was safe and well loved all day. Will be booking again!”
“Emily took amazing care of my animals and my home! She sent pictures daily and all my fur babies were happy and healthy when I returned. My home was clean and just as I left it. I definitely recommend!”
“Mercedes was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! She communicated thoroughly and consistently. She sent lots of pictures and met the needs that we requested. She made the process so smooth and relieved stress for my husband and I about the well-being of our puppies. When needed she will be our first choice in the future and would recommend her 1000%!”
“Evie was great with our 2 dogs. I booked pretty last minute because feeling unsure of having someone come into our home. She did amazing and great communication throughout our trip. Our boys seemed well and not overly crazy when we got home which made me feel that they were well taken care of. Made our trip more enjoyable. Definitely will use her again in the future.”
“Stephanie was amazing - very communicative, lots of pictures, and overall an awesome person to trust with our dogs for the day. Will definitely be adding her to our short list for future sitter needs.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was young. I have pet sat for my friends, family and some of our neighbors. I have two dogs and a tortoise. I love working with animals and seeing their personalities. I have experience working with cats and dogs. I’m am currently working part time, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available on week days and weekends. At my job my shifts are 5 hours. I am very reliable with any accommodation that your pet might need. I’m respectful and responsible of any boundaries the client might have. I aim to keep your fur babies comfortable and safe while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up with two dogs, both are doodle mixes and one is a smaller dog and the other is a big dog so they have helped me learn how to care for dogs. Throughout my life as a teenager I’ve been tasked with basic dog watching duties here and there with a range of breeds, mostly doodle mixes with small and big dogs. Over this past year I’ve had more frequent dog watching jobs, mainly just check in visits with dogs while the owner is out of town or just busy in general. Recently, I had my biggest task which was watching 7 dogs for a week straight while staying overnight. With this task I had to provide medication for some of the dogs, feed every dog, take them outside frequently, and just basic caring duties for every dog. The sizes of dogs I had to watch were from very small to very big dogs. The breeds of dogs there were two Pitbulls, a French bulldog, two small doodle mixes, and two small Shih Tzus. Currently I’m a Sophomore at Bowling Green State University studying Accounting and I’ll also have a part-time job while I’m in school. So I should have plenty of time to care for dogs. Starting August 25th on Tuesdays and Thursdays I’ll be available anytime after 3:00 pm, and for Mondays and Wednesday’s anytime after 4:00pm works for me. For Fridays between 4-9 pm I’m available. Finally for Saturdays and Sundays anytime before 9:00 pm I am available to care. My dogs at home are very friendly and easy to care for. I help with feeding, walking, playing, and bathing. For any client I’ll be able to provide those services as well, and also other things such as providing medicine for any clients pets.
“Kami was great. My dogs looked so happy with her. She stayed at my house and I felt so comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She even put our trash out on trash day! Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for years! Being from a small town, lots of friends and neighbors have trusted me to look after their dogs and cats while away on vacations. On top of this, I currently work as a full time nanny, which has taught me so many things such as reliability and responsibility- characteristics that directly translate to pet care. I am available for pet care on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the early mornings (before 10:00 a.m.) and again after 6:00 p.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available after 3:00 p.m. I also have open availability all day on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and other pet care needs. For the most part I can be pretty flexible, so don’t hesitate to message me with specifics. When caring for a pet in a clients home, I feel it is most important to treat their home with respect and prioritize pet happiness!!
“Cassidy was amazing!! She sent pics, videos and took my baby to a game and the park!! She is a amazing sitter!! So happy to have found her!! Definitely will be booking with her again!!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for both cats and dogs for friends and family.I also have experience volunteering at a local Cat Cafe.

I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy while in my care!

I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability so you know exactly when your pet will be cared for.

I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any household rules.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Whitehouse
Beth is absolutely wonderful\! She is incredibly responsible, reliable, and caring\. She always keeps me updated and sends photos, which I really appreciate\. Sophie is a senior dog, so it’s especially important to me to know that she is in good hands\. I always feel completely at ease when Sophie is with Beth because I know she is being well cared for and getting plenty of attention\. I highly recommend Beth and feel very lucky to have found someone I can trust with Sophie\!
This was our second time using Beth (or “Aunt Beth,” I was just informed by Frank!), and we are so incredibly grateful for the care she provided during our 5 day Christmas trip! Beth was once again the trusted guardian of our 3 snuggly indoor cats, 2 goofy outdoor cats, anxious dog, puppy-dog horse, and 2.5 talkative donkeys (one is pregnant!). Every animal has individual dietary needs and not-so-convenient schedules, and she rolled with everything effortlessly, handling it all with patience, flexibility, and true professionalism. She sent multiple photo updates of each kiddo every single day (which honestly gave me the biggest case of FOMO lol) The individual attention she gives each animal is the best. She remembered that Miss Peaches loves the sink turned on as a treat and that Dise goes absolutely wild for dinner mash and mud. It’s clear she genuinely cares and takes the time to connect with each animal, not just check tasks off a list. Managing this many animals with different needs is a huge responsibility, and Beth handles it with care, dedication, and kindness. I feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such capable hands and will absolutely trust her again .. and again and again! Cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for dependable, attentive, and compassionate pet care! 💖

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitehouse
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Whitehouse on Rover is $37.45 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 310 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitehouse. 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 Whitehouse 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 Whitehouse 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 Whitehouse 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.

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.
