“Absolutely amazing! I can’t say enough great things about Nancy. She was just wonderful with our dog. From meeting us early to keeping us updated. Everything was seemless and we highly recommend Nancy for watching anyone’s dog. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog.”
“Mackenzie was great with our cats. She has chill cat energy that our cranky eldest cat and our timid semi-feral youngest cat both appreciated. She was very responsive and sent us great pictures of the kitties and house details.”
“Zach was a great sitter and attentive. He asked all the right questions to make sure he had all information needed to take care of our dog. He was flexible with our last minute schedule change which we really appreciated.”
“Serenity was truly exceptional with our senior girl, and we are so grateful for the level of care she provided. From the moment we left, she made sure we felt at ease. We never leave our dogs, and this was so hard to do but she sent regular updates with photos and videos so we could see how comfortable and happy our girl was. These updates meant a lot to us considering our girl is older and needs a little extra attention. Beyond caring for our dog, Serenity grabbed our mail and kept our home incredibly clean. Walking back into a spotless house after traveling was a gift and it speaks volumes about her respect for our space and her professionalism. It was very clear Serenity loves pet sitting! She was patient, gentle, attentive, and treated our little girl like family. We felt completely comfortable leaving our girl in her hands and we'd book again without hesitation. Anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and truly outstanding sitter would be lucky to have her. Thank you, Serenity! We truly appreciate you!”
“We needed someone to hang out with our dog and cat for several days while we were on vacation and Ryana did a great job watching our house and mammals. She even handled an unexpected internet technician visit with no fuss. My dog was happy and relaxed and got lots of good play time in the yard, I would call Ryana again next time we're out of town.”
“Angelica was amazing! She stayed in our home with our dogs, sent lots of photos and videos. Both dogs were so comfortable and loved her. Our house was left in great condition when we got home. We would love to use Angelica again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“I was nervous about leaving our puppy and cat with a pet sitter. From the start Bricca put me at ease. The animals liked her and she provided lots of pictures and feedback during her stay.”
“Katlyn and Ashley are wonderful dog sitters for our girls. We have a pup who needs medications for seizures and another who is a guardian breed and needs extra attention. They were attentive to the dogs, sent pics, communicated well, and most importantly gave us peace of mind! We will definitely have them care for the pups again!”
“Kaitlyn did a wonderful job dog-sitting for our two older pups, including walks and giving oral meds and eye drops. This was our first Rover experience and we were pleased that all went well. We left detailed instructions and received equally-detailed reports every night, including photos. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs.”
“Deyaneira was so helpful, kind and caring with our pets. She was able to take our request within 2 days to hangout with our pets for a day. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, which I always appreciate. Deyaneira was punctual and communicative, and she was an overall good guest to have in our house. My dogs and I liked her so much we already booked another stay!”
“Sebastian is an exceptional dog sitter who took incredible care of our two elderly dogs. He communicated effectively and went above and beyond our expectations. I felt completely at ease knowing that our dogs were in capable hands. Sebastian is professional, clean, and detail-oriented in his care. He managed to administer medications and feed our hypoglycemic dog at the right times, ensuring their health and well-being. He was also incredibly loving, attentive, and gentle with our dogs and kept the house very tidy. We recently moved here from Texas and were initially hesitant to hire a new sitter because we had a long-standing relationship with our previous one. However, Sebastian proved to be the absolute best, putting my mind at ease with regular updates and photos. If you’re looking for a kind, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter, I highly recommend Sebastian.”
“Hannah stayed with my crew of pets for a 10 day trip and I was super happy with the experience. She was very communicative and sent photos and notes every day. I appreciated the check ins and knowing everyone was doing great. The house was in perfect condition when I arrived home which is a relief after such a long trip. Thank you Hannah! Bennett, Maui, Loki and Calypso look forward to your next stay :)”
“I almost hate to write this, because Karen may get so busy that I won’t be able to book her! I can’t say enough good about her. Probably the best part was that she had my really anxious/antisocial pup relaxed in no time—and it was July 4. Fireworks going off all the time. Karen sent me updates and pics of both dogs on a regular basis. I do believe my house was cleaner than when I left it. Karen even contacted me for pooper scooper info. Wonderful energy. She is “the dog whisperer.””
“Merilee did a great job taking care of our pets while we were gone for over a week. The communication was great, Merilee took a genuine interest in their health and well being and we came back to a well taken care of house and happy pets.”
“Baylee was great to work with. Very responsive and professional in her interactions. Baylee communicates well, with lots of updates and asked questions when she was unsure of routines or like when the power went out she notified the PUD of the outage. She did great on a long house sit for us with two critters to care for. We were very grateful that we could leave our furry housemates at home for such a long duration and not at a kennel. Everything was in great order when we arrived home and the animals hardly knew we left.”
“I'm so grateful Erica was able to stay with my dog Daisy in last minute. Communication was prompt and clear and she is clean and organized, so glad I found Erica and we'll definitely keep her in mind for future pet sitting!”
“Carina was a wonderful house and dog sitter for Kodiak! She communicated with us promptly each and every day, giving us thorough updates on his activities, emotional state, energy level, etc...She sent pictures of him playing with his toys, burying bones, and just relaxing around the house. The regular updates and photos really reassured us that everything was going fine. Upon returning home, we found a house that was well taken care of, clean and tidier than when we left it. Our yard was in better shape too, with dog-dug holes filled in and poop picked up. Carina provided us with a truly professional level of service, and we're looking forward to working with her again!”
“Cindy is an awesome dog sitter. She was prompt, sent updates and pictures which I so appreciate! Archie was walked and loved while I was away. Thank you for taking great care of Archie!”
“John watched our rambunctious 80 pound German Shepherd for the first time and he had great communication with us the entire time which eased my anxiety of leaving her with a new person. He got to the house exactly when he said he would and spent the entire day hanging out with her. Everything went really smoothly and we will definitely use him again because he is reliable and a good communicator.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alderwood Manor
Deyaneira was incredible! It was our first time doing an overnight Rover and she was extremely communicative easing all of our worries. She constantly sent pics of our pup and it truly made us feel like he was in the best hands. Would recommend to anyone looking for someone!
Zachary set-up a meet and greet to ensure chemistry, a good fit, etc. On the day of arrival he was on-time. Throughout the day he provided periodic updates with photos. I appreciate his kindness and gentleness as my dog is older with some special needs. Would definitely have him again!
Liv was amazing with my two pups! She sent great pictures and updates while I was away, and was super flexible in accommodating a few extra nights when my plans changed. I have two older dogs who have some additional needs, and she took care of them with ease. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.
Karen was wonderful with our dog! She stayed with him in our hotel room for the evening while we were at an event and provided peace of mind to us so we could enjoy our evening. She was communicative and sent us pictures throughout the night so we could see how he was doing! Our elderly dog even showed interest when she was leaving for the night which he rarely does with strangers! Thank you Karen for taking care of Bruno!
Elaina is truly the best, my pup adores being sat by her and I love having updates about Rocco throughout the day. I am confident leaving my puppy with her and always come home to such excellent, thoughtful care. And we know puppies are a handful! Thank you Elaina!
Erica was great working with us to take care of our animals when I went into labor. She even missed a trip, which we truly appreciated so we knew our furbabies were going to be taken care of while we were in the hospital! She made up my bed and straightened up things in the house before she left, which was such a relief coming home with our newborn!
Lynlee was just as great as I expected. We’ve used for drop-in visits a few times, and this was our first housesitting with her. She gave great updates, took adorable pics of my pups, and most importantly, took amazing care of them. Left my house exactly the way I left it, trusted her completely, never worried about my pups for a moment. Highly recommend!
Bryanna was by far the best sitter we’ve gotten through Rover 🐶. She was very communicative with us about everything she was doing/when she’d be home from work, and sent lots of pictures. Our house was left clean and the dogs were happy when we got back definitely booking again!
Ellyssa and Hunter took wonderful care of our Dachshund, Bentley, while house-sitting. They were communicative, professional, respectful of our home, and incredibly kind and patient with Bentley's quirks. They quickly understood his personality, and he warmed up to them right away - playing, lounging in the sun, and enjoying plenty of blanket snuggles. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was so comfortable and well cared for while we were away. We've already booked them for our next trip and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet sitters!
Amy and our almost 3-year old puppy have quickly become best buds. I knew the first time we met Amy that would be the case. She sends us photos of Inky who always looks like she's very relaxed or having fun or both. I would definitely recommend anyone to hire Amy to take care of their 4-legged family members except when we need her!!
David was great with the dogs and always gave sent us pics of their adventures. He was dog sitting our pups at our home and left our home in the same condition that we left it. David was very professional, communicative, and understanding. Our dogs had a great time with David, and they were missing him by the end.
Brynna is absolutely amazing! She was the perfect person for Phoebe and Cyrus. She took very good care of them and the house in our absence. She kept us updated about everything, and even when we got late, she extended her stay without any hesitation, to make sure that our fur babies were well taken care of. Thank you so much for everything! You were truly amazing!

FAQs for House Sitting - Alderwood Manor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Alderwood Manor on Rover is $53.5 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 7,433 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alderwood Manor. 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 Alderwood Manor 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 Alderwood Manor 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 Alderwood Manor 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
