“Andrea was amazing. We have a unique situation where we have to separate our cats and dogs which requires strict instructions, she followed all of them! My anxious cats were warming up to her as well as my anxious husky rescue! She put in a lot of effort to help them be comfortable around her 🥰. Shes so soft spoken, gentle, and patient. Highly recommend! We will be using her again!”
“Kaya has been excellent with our dogs. Always punctual and polite and our new puppy loves her despite generally being very nervous. Kaya has a gentle spirit, good energy as soon as you meet her.”
About: I’ve cared for animals for my entire life. I absolutely adore taking care of all of them, and have 3 kitties and 2 pups of my own! I can handle anything from the most energetic of puppies to the laziest of seniors! Currently, I work part-time and am available anytime to come care for your pet! I can also drop by in early mornings to come feed, let out, and love on your fur baby. I can do drop-in visits and give your baby a buddy to hang out with for a while. Let them out, lounge around, whatever’s needed from me. I always make sure that my cats feel comfortable and well-loved. I will ensure your pups & kitties feel the same!
“Olivia took excellent care of my dog, my cat, and my sister's dog as well! She stayed in my home for a three day, two night petsitting request, and she took great care of my house & belongings as well. Olivia is very pleasant to be around, and the animals loved her. She'll provide plenty of cuddle time as well as play time, and she follows detailed instructions without issue. I'd certainly hire her again. Thank you!”

“Hannah was very compassionate and understanding of my anxiety about leaving my precious tiny senior chihuahua in a hotel in Vegas. She FaceTimed me Before and assured me she was in good hands. She sent me pictures throughout her stay with Coco. Took her for a walk my baby was peacefully sleeping when I got back to the hotel after the concert. I highly recommend trusting Hannah to care for your beloved pet!”

“First time i left my 3 puppies under a year old and my old lady Che wa. Only checked the camera one time and saw she was sitting there with all my crazy dogs. Think she left the house cleaner then we did. Haha. Fantastic. Feel like I’m ready for the week you’re going to watch them When we’re in Hawaii,. We’ll bring you a souvenir”

“We couldn't have asked for a better house sitter, than Nadine. From the very first conversation, she communicated clearly and consistently — we always knew exactly what to expect. She followed through on everything she said she would do, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. But beyond the reliability, what really stood out was her energy. She brought such a warm, positive, and genuinely kind presence to our home. We came back to a happy house and felt truly grateful to have had her here. We would welcome her back without hesitation and recommend her wholeheartedly!”

5/5 Stars – Absolutely Phenomenal Care! I cannot recommend Dawnn highly enough. Leaving our dogs behind is always tough, but from the moment Dawnn took over, all my anxiety completely vanished. She did an incredible job of keeping me updated with detailed daily notes and the most wonderful photos, which kept me smiling the entire time I was away. It was immediately clear that Dawnn isn’t just doing a job—she genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. She was incredibly attentive to Lucy and Yodel's routine, dietary needs, and quirks, ensuring they felt safe, loved, and fully entertained. When I returned, Lucy and Yodel were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved, and the house was left impeccably clean. Dawnn is professional, reliable, deeply caring, and an absolute joy to work with. I will absolutely be booking her again for my next trip (This was my 3rd overnight trip- as a meet and greet we hired her to walk our dogs prior to our extended trip). If you are looking for someone you can trust implicitly with your furry family members, look no further!
Amelia was amazing, an absolute blessing to me and my fur babies!! I was really nervous to leave my pets at home while I went on vacation, but Amelia really helped put my mind at ease. Watson and Amaris both LOVE her, and she treated my home with such respect and kindness. I got regular updates and pictures of my pets, communication was easy, fast, and consistent. I got home to well-cared for animals and a clean house, so fantastic!! I will 1000% be rebooking as soon as I have another trip planned!!!
Tiffany stayed at my place with my fur baby Moo for a week! Let’s start off with her response efforts that I was highly satisfied with. It was my first time leaving Moo with anyone as well at my home. She did an amazing job, fantastic with updating me on any situation and I was always sent photos of Moo. Tiffany went above and beyond and exceeded expectations in my eye, she not only gave love and cuddles to my fur baby but she also took it upon herself to make sure he was fresh and clean coming back home to. My home was also left in great condition. Tiffany is very trustworthy and her confidence shows that she knows exactly what she’s doing with pets. I definitely found a fur baby sitter for any new events that may come up. She did an awesome job and I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much again Tiffany. I appreciate your work & kind soul 🙏💗✨
Kay is a calm and reliable pet sitter. He was easy to communicate with, and we felt that he did a great job making sure that our cat was happy, well fed, and comfortable. I had mentioned that we weren’t sure how Albert would react to the July 4th fireworks, which can be very loud in our neighborhood, so Kay sent an adorable video of Albert calmly observing the firework displays from our living-room window. It was great not having to worry at all about our boy, or wonder if he was receiving the attention and company that he craves while we were gone. We came home to a calm, happy pet and a clean house. We will be happy to hire Kay again.
Jessica was absolutely fantastic! This was our first time using her, and she exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Before the stay even began, she came to our home twice—once for an initial meet-and-greet and again before the sitting—to get to know our dogs, learn their routines, and make sure everyone (including us!) felt comfortable. That level of preparation immediately gave us confidence. Throughout the stay, Jessica was incredibly responsive, communicative, and thoughtful. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which made it so much easier to relax while we were away knowing Singleton and Sophie were in such good hands. When we returned home, the house was spotless and exactly as we had left it. It’s clear she treated both our home and our dogs with genuine care and respect. Most importantly, Singleton and Sophie were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Jessica is professional, dependable, kind, and truly goes above and beyond. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with both their pets and their home. Thank you, Jessica!
Great experience! It’s our first time looking for a pet sitter and Mackenzie was understanding and very accommodating with special requests. She stayed overnight and during the day, no issues, and our kitten loved her!! Our other cat is shy so Mackenzie stepped out and then our cat came out to roam, which was not necessary but very much appreciated! I felt better knowing someone was watching over our cats. We would definitely book again!
Victoria was great! She was very attentive and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of the dogs and updates on how they were doing, which really put me at ease. I will definitely book her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a 5-star dog sitter!
Ana has watched my dog and cat twice now, both for a week long trips. She sends lots of pics of my babies and I always come back to happy pets! My dog is a big cuddler so it makes me happy Ana will cozy up with him while I’m gone. She’s a great sitter! Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Whitney on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,669 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitney. 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 Whitney 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 Whitney 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 Whitney 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.
