“Isabella did a great job with our two dogs overnight! We had some changes last minute on our end to arrival and departure times and she was very flexible with our needs. She sent lots of pictures, asked good questions, followed our instructions, and we came back to happy dogs! Thank you!!”
“Maddie was great! She stayed at our house with our 14 year old, blind fur baby, Liz. She kept us well informed throughout the weekend. It was so nice to have a trustworthy sitter and return to a happy, relaxed dog. Liz was in excellent hands, and we could tell she felt completely comfortable and safe with Maddie. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable sitter!”
“Vanessa stayed in our home and took care of our Bull Terrier Peanut for 5 days. Vanessa is very professional and her understanding and passion for dog care shown through upon our very first meeting. Our dog is strong and spoiled, and we felt very confident that Vanessa could handle all of Peanut's personality and take care of our house as well. She gave feedback during her stay to make sure everyone got a restful night. She has a lot of dog experience and responsibility, giving me peace of mind that is invaluable! She took time to answer every text and upon our return, Peanut and the house were in perfect order! Definitely will contact Vanessa when our next need arises. THANKS!”
“Jordyn was wonderful with Sally. She kept us up to date on how Sally was doing and took her out often, even in this cold weather. She was very flexible with scheduling and on time. Sally is a big fan! We will definitely us Jordyn again. Thank you Jordyn!”
About: I’m a dog lover and a proud dog owner myself! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m patient, caring, and responsible. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, feeding them, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I will treat your pets like my own and always keep you updated with pictures and messages. I’m available Thursday through Saturday and prefer caring for pets in my apartment. I have plenty of time to give them attention, take them on walks, and enjoy outdoor activities at the dog park in my apartment complex. Your pet will be treated like family!

I also follow their feeding schedules and daily routines, and I love sending pictures and updates to their owners!
“Chrystal was amazing! If I could give her more than five stars, I would. I could tell by the daily adorable pictures she sent that my dogs were happy, safe and well cared for. When I got home, my boys were happy to see me, but there was absolutely no signs of stress from me being gone. They loved her!!!!”
“We’ve used Eloise before to stay in our home and take care of our two dogs. She follows our instructions and sends updates and pictures of them which was appreciated. Our home was tidy and our dogs were happy when we came home.”
“Erika is a reliable sitter that really connects with my 2 Irish Setters girls. She has great instincts in how to deal with what they’re thinking and how they’re behaving. Claire wasn’t feeling good and Erika cared for her and kept me informed with texts and photos. She’s cared for my girls 4 days this week and I understand why she’s rated as a Star Sitter❣️”

Isabella did a great job with our two dogs overnight! We had some changes last minute on our end to arrival and departure times and she was very flexible with our needs. She sent lots of pictures, asked good questions, followed our instructions, and we came back to happy dogs! Thank you!!
Scott took great care of our animals! We have two rascally dogs, and three cats who keep us busy. Our largest dog weighs 160 pounds and was so traumatized the last time we brought him to a bordering facility he didn’t stop crying for two weeks after we brought him home. After staying in our home with Scott the dogs were happy to see us, but fully themselves and the happy dogs we left. Additionally, the house was clean and neat when we got home. Thank you Scott!
Heather was so great with our senior dog. She stayed at our house and it was so nice to know our dog was cared for while we were gone. Our dog is not easy, she has mobility and potty issues and Heather handled her so well. She was very communicative while we were away, sent us daily updates and pictures.
Alyssa is wonderful and took such good care of our animal family. She is a gem and was a perfect fit for our furry ones! It was a pleasure working with her! She is very kind, caring, responsible and professional. Jakey, our dog, was happy to see us when we returned home, but he was also looking for Alyssa, his new best friend. Look forward to using her in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Almora Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Almora Heights is $60 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Almora Heights 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 Almora Heights 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 Almora Heights 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.
