“Mikaela arrived on time to watch our two dogs and seemed to enjoy spending time with Ruby and Fergie. She sent a few photos, fed our dogs and gave medication to one. We would definitely book with Mikaela again.”
“I cannot express to you the patience and care Sara took to care for my highly anxious fur babies! My dogs were in shock to not have me there, but Sara patiently won them over with slow, quiet steps. She kept me informed about every angle of progress. The most important thing about Sara was her ability to calmly let my girls get used to her presence, and I was kept informed whether something she did worked or not. If one thing didn't work, she was right back to try another way to gain their trust. Sara made my trip (for a funeral) less painful and I will ABSOLUTELY ask her to watch my babies again!!! She also took fantastic care of my house!!”
“Olivia was fantastic! She was flexible with our schedule, always timely, and took amazing care of our puppies. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing we had someone we could truly trust while we were away. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care dogs of all kinds, with 4 years of house and dog sitting experience. The longest period I have house/dog sat is 3 weeks. Experience chauffeuring pets. Open schedule, able to work as needed. Experience with rescues. I am currently working from home with a freelance schedule, which means I have a lot of availability for your pets! As long as I have a few hours notice I should be able to make it work. I will keep your pets on a long leash but will walk them through the 1 acre property, and am happy to walk them on the neighboring 200 acres of preserved land.
“Angelica was fantastic with our rescue girl Penny. She sent photos and updates and we felt at ease knowing that our girl was in good hands while we were away. We will book again!”
About: I have cared for both small dogs and medium sized dogs. Have implemented special diets (Farmer's Dog) given medications through food or a treat. Assisted in foster care. Can follow leash and harness preferences and always have poop bags on the ready. I have slept beside puppies who are needy throughout the night. I am a full time K-12 art teacher so I would be available for any pet care services mostly on the weekends and few selected nights throughout the week. I would stay in the areas of the home that the pet is residing and or whichever areas that the client feels comfortable with. Example being the living room or dining room.
“Nico's watched our energetic boxers a couple of times before but this time he stayed at our home for 3 weeks. Dogs thought they were on vacation too as they got a lot more exercise and attention than normal life. Very thankful for his attention to the dogs and helpful with small things around the house while we were gone. Recommend him to others for single day/walks or longer term sitting.”
“Taylor was truly incredible! We felt so comfortable leaving our four pets with her, and she handled them all perfectly! Some of them were on medication and had specific feeding instructions, which she perfectly handled. Our animals loved her instantly-even our shy cat was giving her cuddles the second day! She took care of our house and went above and beyond cleaning up litter and removing snow! I can’t recommend her enough”
“Dustin walks my dog daily, and this was his first time watching him at my place. He did an incredible job and is super flexible and easy to work with. My (giant) dog loves him, and he took great care of the place. Highly recommend.”
About: About Me: Your Dog's Next Best Friend 🐾 All my life, my world has revolved around four-legged family members. I’ve been caring for dogs since before I could even walk, and I’ve long been the go-to pet sitter for my entire family. I truly understand that every dog has a unique personality and their own special way of showing affection. For me, pet sitting isn't just a job—I love spending quality time building trust, learning your dog's unique signals, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you're away. Services I Offer Whether you need a quick check-in or full-day care, I've got you covered: Drop-In Visits & Feedings: Keeping your pup's routine perfectly on track. All-Day Pet Sitting: Dedicated, full-day companionship and care. Adventure Walks (My Specialty!): Perfect for high-energy dogs or pups who love to explore. 🌲 My Specialty: The "Daily Adventure" Walk If your dog loves the great outdoors, they will love staying with me! I walk my own dog between 3 to 6 miles a day, exploring local trails and discovering new environments. I believe that changing up walking routes keeps a dog mentally stimulated and deeply engaged. By turning a standard bathroom break into a fresh adventure, your pup stays excited, happy, and pleasantly tired out by the time you get home. Ready to level up your fur-baby's daily activity? I’m the reliable, active, and loving sitter you’ve been looking for. Let’s connect and chat about your pup's routine! I currently work part time so there is plenty of time in my schedule to take care of your fur baby! I can walk and feed your pets in the morning and will be back in time to take care of them in the evening! Hey pet parents! I’m an active, outdoor-loving pet sitter who specializes in turning boring workdays into mini-adventures for your pup. If you have a dog with energy to burn, I’m your person! From brisk cardio walks to interactive playtime that keeps their minds sharp, I make sure your dog gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to be calm and relaxed by the time you get home. I offer dedicated dog walking and pet sitting services tailored entirely to your routine. I understand safety is a big concern for every pet owner. I always include real-time photo updates during every visit. If there is ever an emergency I will always call and let the owner know. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own.
“Bev was super attentive to our pups!! She was also very communicative, sending us updates and photos daily of what the dogs were up to and responding quickly when we had questions. She really took great care of our dogs and we will be using her anytime we need a dog sitter. She's part of the family now! She's the best!!”
“Ash is an amazing human! I knew right away when I met her it would be a good fit for us and our boys. Upon returning home everything was in perfect order and the boys were more than taken care of. Will 1000% be booking again. Thanks again for your help and giving us peace of mind while away!!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs and coworkers as well. Experience with walking them, administering medications, speciality feedings, house sitting and more. I’ve worked will all age ranges from puppies to seniors (including cats). I also love reptiles! Snakes, geckos, frogs, you name it. I’d love to be able to take care of your fur babies while you have a stress free vacation or trip. I currently work full time as a hairstylist, Wednesday through Saturday from 9-6, however with enough notice my boss is super flexible and I’d be willing to take some reasonable time off. I’m off Sunday-Tuesday so perfect for drop in visits, walkings, and house sitting. I always write down rules that you may provide or have. I love doing a “meet and greet prior to the booking so your pet is familiar with me before we spend time together.
“Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter and my doggie just loves her. I feel completely comfortable while traveling knowing that my dog is well cared for. Highly recommended.”
“Brooke is the best! We’ve booked with her many times and she always takes the best care of our dog. Her love of animals makes us feel our pet is safe and loved while we’re away. I highly recommend Brooke!”
“I wish that more people in the world were like Tim. His integrity, responsibility, and dedication are rare qualities. I was at my wits end with stress from moving across the country, but I had to travel for work. I was worried sick about my poor cat that had been through so much stress already. From the first day, I felt that I could trust Tim with my cat and my home. With clear and regular communication, I could see that my very shy cat was warming up to Tim and it gave me a sense of relief that I hadn’t felt in weeks. Despite the facts that my furniture hadn’t even arrived (and arrived while I was away!), that the house was cold, and had few amenities, Tim never complained and handled everything graciously. Simply put, Tim was there for me when I needed help, and he has my eternal trust and gratitude. I’ve already asked him to stay again when I have to travel in a couple of months.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Whitpain Hills is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Whitpain Hills
I am so glad we found Sara here on Rover. Our dog got along with her right away so we knew she was the right person for the job. Going on vacation and leaving your pet behind is always stressful but knowing Sara would be here to watch our dog with the experience and care she brings made that process much easier on us. I highly recommend her. We will definitely look to hire her again in the future!
Absolutely best rating possible! Our baby is a lot of work and requires someone super capable of keeping our dog active and understanding his needs. She kept house clean, followed all tips, and was super communicative. Meechy was so happy to get snuggles and feel safe all week :)
We went away for a week and had Nicole take care of our dog Teddy. He is very shy and not used to strangers. He warmed up to her immediately and they had a great week. She sent us pictures of him and kept us aware of what he was doing each day. The house was perfectly kept and I really felt confident being away and not worrying about the dog or our home. I would absolutely use Nicole again. She was responsible and reliable.
Shannon was great with our two chow chows. She even took the initiative to look up the chow chow personality so she was on top of everything! Shannon was able to get them inside from their invisible fence to head up to bed at a decent hour. All good with Shannon!

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitpain Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 5,945 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitpain Hills. 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 Whitpain Hills 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 Whitpain Hills 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 Whitpain Hills 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.
