“Clara house sat and watch our labradoodle for 5 days and did a fantastic job! Walter was happy and healthy when we arrived home and the house was in excellent condition. Several of our dog-loving neighbors got to know Clara and really liked them. We highly recommend Clara and have absolutely no reservations in hiring them again! :-)”
About: I am an 18 year old USC student. I‘ve owned at least one dog since I can even remember, alongside earning the trust of my friends, family, and neighbors to take care of their own lovely animals whether it’s a dog or cat (I love both!!) I have also dealt with all kinds of food and pet difficulty when it comes to walks! I’d love to care for all of your furry friends!! I’m a USC student with a flexible class schedule, which gives me plenty of time throughout the week for pet care! I’m available most mornings, between classes, in the evenings, and on weekends. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I have large portions of the morning and early afternoon available. Tuesdays and Thursdays are busier class days, but I still have breaks throughout the day and evening availability for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I’m also already up early several days a week for ROTC, so early-morning visits are no problem for me! I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and will do my best to accommodate specific times. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I provide care in your home, I will do my best to keep your pet’s routine and environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow all instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special needs. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility. I will always be respectful of your space, make sure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured, and keep a close eye on your pet during walks and visits. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Katie was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our house and watched our Golden Retriever for 5 nights while we were on vacation, and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief knowing he was happy, comfortable in his own home, and being well taken care of while we were away. Katie was trustworthy, caring, and did a great job with him. We came home to a happy dog and everything just as we left it. We would absolutely book Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to stay overnight and take great care of their dog!”
“I highly recommend and will definitely use Cody again. He was very attentive and thorough with all of my request. If he was uncertain about anything, he would always check in for clarification. It gave me much needed peace of mind knowing Kylie was being taken care of by someone who really cared. This was the first time we’ve ever had someone in our home and I was completely comfortable with Cody being there while we were away. Thank you, Cody.!!!”
“Zoe is incredible!!! She bonded with my dogs in quick order and did a spectacular job of caring for them and loving on them while I was on vacation. I highly recommend her. She is thoughtful, compassionate, and thorough, and even cleaned up everything before she left, leaving me with a very clean comfortable home to return to. She is a gem!!”
“Qais was incredibly friendly and helpful! I had a last-minute work schedule conflict and needed someone to come care for my 12-year-old Shih Tzu who had just come out of surgery. Qais stepped up on short notice and was a wonderful support for my furson during such a stressful time.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. Now, I am a dog mom of 3 beauties. I have a 16 yr old shitzu terrier mixed,3 yr old a pit bull , and a 6 months English bull dog! I got out of the medical field, and have now devoted my lifestyle to my at home marketing and being a full time dog mom! I’m skilled in handling dogs of all sizes and all energy levels.

“Leanissa is hands down the best dog sitter! She stayed at my home for 2 weeks to take care of Kingston and did an incredible job. She followed all care instructions, treated my home with immense respect, and went above and beyond to keep everything clean. She is now my top choice for pet sitting, and I can't wait to book her again! Kingston and I are so grateful for her!!”
About: What’s sets me apart from other sitters is I have many years of experience being around cats and dogs and I have two rescues so I know how to take care of animals! I get off at 3 for work most days so and my schedule is flexible! Afternoons suit me better but I’m willing to figure out with the client what would work best to fit their animals needs! I have a fenced in back yard that’s big and a dog and a cat that don’t mind other animals, my dog is trained as well!
“Morgan did a great job taking care of our beagle child Lucky. We planned a trip with short notice and couldn’t be happier that we found Morgan and she was available to provide in home care for Lucky. It was our first time using her but won’t be the last. We found her to be very attentive, accommodating to any special requests, responsible and reliable. The regular updates she provided us made us feel less guilty about leaving her behind. We highly recommend Morgan and Lucky does too! 🐶”
“Sarah is an excellent dog and house sitter! She gave updates during the week with pictures and replied quickly whenever I have had to reach out. I came home to a relaxed , happy dog and a clean well cared for home- best way to return from a vacation! I will definitely book her again for future stays !!”
“Chris was amazing!! We were able to leave Remi home and know that he was being taken care of. He was accommodating at the last minute— Definitely a life saver! Will be recommending him to friends and using him for future sittings.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arthurtown
My two dogs love Madison! Before her stay, she oriented to all my many details very patiently. Everything was in excellent order when we got home. I feel confident my dogs and home were in great hands which is a necessary feeling when traveling. Thank you, Madison!
This was my first time using rover or having someone other than family watch my pets, but Katie was amazing. She was extremely responsive during the booking process and answered all my questions. She sent me photos while I was gone and updates through out the day which really I appreciated. She did a fabulous job and I have already rebooked her services. 100% recommend!
Mallory was an excellent sitter for Mimi! Her calm, gentle demeanor was exactly what Mimi needed, especially since she is blind and has seizures. Mallory kept me updated throughout her stay and sent pictures, which I really appreciated. She also left my house exceptionally clean! Most importantly, Mimi absolutely loved her. I would definitely have Mallory back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable sitter!
Paula G. is not only wonderful with our very active attention-driven dogs but also very attentive to details. She respects our home as she left everything very clean and even laundered her bedding. She gives the dogs individual attention, communicates well with text and photo updates, and is RELIABLE! I highly recommend her and plan to use her again in the future!
Isabella did a wonderful job watching our two cats! She was very communicative and kept us updated throughout our trip, especially about one of our cats who was dealing with an eye issue and had to wear a cone. She was comfortable administering his eyedrops and took great care of both of our cats.
Drew was absolutely a dream pet sitter. I presented quite the challenge with my 3 senior pups and one very high energy GSP puppy. Drew not only met but far exceeded every expectation. It had been actually years since I had been able to go out of town without constantly worrying about my fur babies and with Drew, that changed. I had not one worry and I absolutely would not hesitate to hire him again and 1000x over recommend to anyone looking for an actual dog lover that is also reliable, consistent, friendly, loving and committed! I couldn't be more grateful to have found him and I will definitely be hiring him again. He went above and beyond and I came home to 4 very happy fur babies and that alone, is priceless. Look no further, Drew is your new pet sitter. ❤️
Syd did a great job taking care of our fur babies while we were out of town. Is he sent lots of pics and updates. I was able to relax and enjoy my time away knowing they were well cared for and in good hands! Would definitely use her again and would recommend.
She was great, kept me informed about my fur babies she was very sweet even delivered my fur babies back home safely. I felt very comfortable and I felt that she was trust worthy. My babies had a good environment to enjoy other fur babies an outdoor fenced area for bathroom use and play . I will be using her again. 🫶🏽

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Arthurtown is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $44 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.
As of October 2026, there are 636 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arthurtown. 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 Arthurtown 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 Arthurtown 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 Arthurtown 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.
