“Alex is a life saver! She was such an amazing house-sitter for our slightly anxious dog Maggie. It was our first vacation away since we rescued her and Alex made us feel so comfortable leaving and knowing she would take care of everything. She really took the time to bond with Maggie, giving her a lot of care and attention, and we loved seeing the photo updates of her having so much fun while we were away. Alex was totally professional with the tasks of caring for Maggie and excellent with communication. You can also tell how much she cares about the job and we came home to a clean house and such a happy dog. We couldn't ask for more!”
“Betty is the absolute best! This is her second time with us and it was a long stay. She went above and beyond in every way and made us feel so safe and secure! She is truly a gift to our family and we cannot wait to have her back!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. Ive always had pets in the house and I have always had responsibilities to take care of them. Our 14 year old husky/heeler mix just crossed the rainbow bridge but we had him since he was 8 weeks old so dont worry if your babies are loud and rowdy I can handle it. I also have a sweet 2 year old corgi who is basically a toddler and a t-rex combined. I have two adorable cats who I love. I have house sat for family members for the past 5-6 years and love getting to spend time with their animals. I currently work full time but I leave early (usually around 6:30 am) and get back early (usually about 4:00pm) but weekends im all yours!! So there is plenty of time for play! I will follow your schedule as needed. I know how important it is to keep things at home as stable as possible when it comes to your pets! But dont worry there will be lots of love and playtime!!
About: I have had a dog since the age of 6 and birds off and on all of my life. Everyone in my family has always had dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. Growing up, I had 2 horses for a short time. I love all creatures! I am currently not working and have no children so I can dedicate my time to your fur babies.we recently lost our two sweet girls and we are not in a position for another at the moment. I will shower your pets with love, affection, toys and (approved) treats! I prefer to come to your home- I think it’s always best to have your pet in their own environment when they have new people in their life or even people they know.
“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”
About: HELLO! I have 2 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs, all wonderfully cared for!! My passion is animals and I am working towards a career in veterinary medicine and research! I may be young but I have worked for a dog walking/ sitting business before (in Williamsburg, VA) for around 2 years. I have had years and years of experience with my own pets and helping out with others!! I am currently away from my home in Ogden (living on campus) and I would love to continue to make an impact in animal lives! (Don’t worry my fur babies are being cared for by my lovely parents while i’m away). I will always prioritize your pets comfort and happiness and am great with flexible schedules and spontaneous events! If you need to cancel or you need an on demand pet-sitter, i’m your girl! I go home each weekend on friday and stay through Sunday morning to visit my family and my pets! When i’m home, I am mostly on-duty for my animals. I always put them first and then when they’re ready to nap I can do schoolwork! I have no problem getting down and dirty with cleaning up messes as cleaning is another thing i enjoy! While i’m here, pet care fits in for me in between my classes and in the evenings! I’m pretty flexible with my schedule! I will provide walks, play time, feeding, treats, and clean up!! My favorite thing is a happy animal, so I will work hard to ensure this happens!
“Laney was great with Miles, my 10 year old pup. She kept him on his routine and shared updates regularly about how things were going. We came home to a healthy and relaxed doggie.”
“Brad is amazing! Can’t say enough good things. He went out of his way to go above and beyond for our pup and did an excellent job. Kept us updated constantly with updates and photos. Highly recommend!!”
“Maya was excellent. She took great care of my pup while I was away and was very communicative. I would recommend her and will happily have her sit for me again in the future!”
“This is the second time we have used Jessica and we are always very assured. She is super communicative and very accommodating. She understands what it’s like to leave pets in the care of others and for us, she has experience with Frenchies which have to be cared for in a certain way. We didn’t leave our frenchies tjis trip but we would have no issue doing so. She’s amazing!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs almost my whole life. I live with a husky and a mini poodle mix. I also have a cat that is now 7yrs. I do have more experience with dogs, but I am so very close to my cat. I can take them for walks or to dog parks, whatever they need. I am working part-time at night at the moment, so my schedule is mostly free. Preferably weekends, but is not required. Can be flexible. I do have a fenced front and backyard. I also have a large kennel in storage if needed. I’d prefer to keep them outside if at my house. Very respectful of others space, I used to nanny and have experience being in others homes.
“Leah took Ranger for a long walk to the park even though it was a little chilly and he loved getting out! My cat Salem even got snuggles afterwards. Leah made sure to tend to both of my boys making sure they were happy and cared for. Love her!!”

Alex did such an amazing job with my Lucy. It was her first time being left home alone with someone who wasn’t family . She let Lucy warm up to her at her own pace and helped her feel safe and comfortable . She took her for lots of walks , played with her, and gave her all of the loves . She also captured the most amazing and silly photos of Lucy .

The average cost of House Sitting in Alpine Meadows is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $118 per night.

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 Alpine Meadows 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 Alpine Meadows 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 Alpine Meadows 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
