“John is so kind and patient! He really makes use feel like our dog is in good hands. Our Aussie/golden retriever mix is a handful and he was great with him. Played a ton and got to know him. We are so excited to have reliable care!”
“Serena is amazing! She took such great care of my pups and loved on them like I would. She sent photo/video updates, took them on walks, and kept me up to date with everything. I always have anxiety leaving my dogs for any trips, but I felt very comfortable having Serena stay at my house with them. She went above and beyond! She took my dogs on individual walks since they're at very different activity levels and she left the guest bedroom immaculate with washed sheets and towels--even though she didn't have to do all of that! I would not hesitate to have Serena watch my dogs and house again. Also, my Jack Russell tends to bark at new people when they come over, but he didn't bark at her at all during the meet & greet. That alone tells me she's got great energy. Thank you, Serena! You are truly appreciated!”
“Mary is wonderful! We knew from the meet and greet that our boys were going to be well loved and looked after. I can’t say enough amazing things about her! Our Puppy is tuckered out from all the love he received under her care and our home was well taken care of as well. We will definitely be asking for her help again and again! Thank you Mary!”
“Charley watched our boys overnight and we couldn’t be happier! Our boys were happy and the house was just as we left it when we got home! Would definitely book her again! Thanks Charley!”
“Loren was awesome taking care of our 3 dogs. She sent a lot of pictures and kept in touch keeping our minds at ease during our vacation. I would recommend her taking care of other people’s animals.”
“Chrisztina was amazing with my pet furry boys. She sent me videos and pictures every day. She understood that Oscar has never being boarded or left our sides since he was two months old. Charlie was adjusted fine. Oscar likes to follow us around the house or he is in his home. I believe he knew that we left him as he followed Chrisztina everywhere too. I love Chrisztina for her get go personality. She really does care care about animals. Also, she’s very reasonable, too reasonable. She should increase her fee.”
“As always, we never have to worry that our babies are being taken care of. They get oodles of attention and barely notice when we come home.😊 My home is currently under contract and we had a last minute appraisal and inspection scheduled and Michelle took care of getting the dogs settled and everything went perfectly. The girls just love Michelle and it is so obvious she loves them back!”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was a baby and I truly dont think we dersve how pure and amazing they are. I used to dog sit during highschool for my neighbors and even now when friends go out of town I am always open to have their pup at the house or watch them at theirs. I have trained 3 dogs from 7 weeks old so I am able to help you out at any age pup you have. I will love on them like they are my own and I cant wait :) I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to work from home some days a week. I am never gone for more than 4 hours in a day but can always adjust my schedule if I am watching a dog that cant have me gone long. You tell me your needs and I will work around that. I have one friendly pup of my own named kona and a private fenced in dog park that is normally empty that I bring her to a couple times a day. I usually go on a couple walks a day so I can do as many or as few walks as your pups needs :)
About: I am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid through the American Health Training Association. Personalized Care, Special Needs Pet Care, and Experienced & Trustworthy I am retired and currently an Interfaith/Interspiritual Minister which provides me with a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays, most weekends and holidays for you. My services at this time will take place in your home. I will require an initial greeting to make sure your animal is comfortable and has a chance to get to know me in their own environment. I have worked with animals that have had anxiety and was able to work with them to gain their trust.
“Bethany was great. She was super flexible for a last minute meet and greet and overnight sitting for July 4th weekend. Very kind and took great care of my dogs. Great at communicating and sending updates.”
“My partner and I went away for the weekend, and Tyler housesat and watched our two very hyper boxers. He was the best with them, played with them, and cared for them as if they were his own. He was very communicative throughout the weekend and sent us photos of the pups every day. We will definitely be contacting him next time we need someone to watch them!”
“If I could’ve given more than five stars, I would have!!! Aaliyah was fabulous! We love her the dogs love her. The house was in perfect shape. I can’t thank her enough!”
About: I have always had dogs in my life and have a true passion for animals. I have nearly two decades of experience taking care of dogs, including walking, bathing, and administering oral and topical medication. Having spent my life with dogs, I have experience with all stages of life including those facing chronic illness. I am always looking into ways to further educate myself on how to care for dogs. My current routine includes caring for my cat daily, and up to three days a week I have a consistent dog walking client during midday. If I have an additional client, I work their care into my routine. At my parents home they have a fenced in side yard and I will still occasionally give them baths or medication. In my home I routinely administer topical medication for my cat, clips his nails, and clean his litter box and water fountain. My cat also occasionally requires oral medication due to his chronic illness. My current clients either live in a home without a fenced in area, or in an apartment community so I will walk their dogs regularly (3-4 times a day) when doing a full day, or will walk them based on need this in addition to administering any necessary medication and feedings.
“Jackie was amazing! She took great care of our five cats and one dog. Especially on such short notice. If you ever need a suggestion for someone we highly recommend her, and will use her again in the future. All of our animals were instantly comfortable with her.”
“Kristena was excellent! We left her with 2 cats, an older dog and a puppy. She sent us detailed updates every day with pictures and even did some training with our puppy while we were away. She also took great care of our home and left it in spotless condition, cleaning up after herself and the animals. We would love to have her back any time!”
“We were so happy with Larry watching our two dogs! He sent pics and text updates and dealt with not only a water leak but a renovation going on in the apartment above ours. I had full confidence that my fur babies were in great hands. He is highly recommended by us and we will definitely be in touch next time we go away! Thanks Larry!!!”

Alora did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and cat while we were away on vacation. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in great hands. She provided lots of photos and updates. We came home to happy, well-cared-for animals, and we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. We’d definitely recommend her!
Skip did a great job for us. He communicated well and even sent a picture which was amazing since our cats hid from him most of the time.:) I guess they didn't understand that when Santa Claus is your sitter, you should come out and show some love if you don't want to be on the naughty list. We highly recommend Skip to anyone needing a responsible and caring pet sitter.
Taylor was absolutely fantastic!! We are new to the area and it’s always nerve racking and stressful finding a new sitter for our home and pups. Taylor put all my worries and stress at easy! She was quick to respond to all my questions, reassuring on any concerns and come over for a last minute trip to meet our pups. Our dogs LOVED her the moment she walked in and were sad when she left. During our trip her communication was outstanding. We received many photos and updates and the dogs looked so happy in every single one. She left our home clean and tidy and in better condition than we did when we left, haha! Highly recommend and we will definitely use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Archer Lodge on Rover is $45.51 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 2,231 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Archer Lodge. 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 Archer Lodge 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 Archer Lodge 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 Archer Lodge 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.
