“Marsha is amazing!!! She treats your dogs like her own and sends so many videos and pictures for updates :) We were gone for 4 nights and ended up having to be gone for 5 and she was able to stay and help out last minute!! We can’t thank her enough. If you want someone who cares for your pets like family, book her :)”
“Melissa did fantastic! She made sure our dogs were well cared for. She interacted with them and loved them as her own. She relieved so much stress over leaving them alone while we got married. We will definitely use Melissa again.”
“Carrie is a gem! My dog got sick before I left and Carrie made sure she was well taken care of, sending me updates and setting up the vet appointment. I trust Carrie so much and feel lucky to have found her. She’s definitely Xena’s favorite friend. Thank you Carrie!!”
“Jessica is our only trusted pet sitter! She loves our babies and they are so comfortable with her. Allows us to relax when we need to head out of town. She is a true gem!!! Thank you for being so amazing 😊 if you need a sitter she is the one 😊”
“Isabella was great! She took fantastic care of both our clingy cat and our home! Very good communication, she sent pictures every day and responded promptly to my messages. We would love to have her house sit for us again. Highly recommend her!”
“Alyssa did a great job caring for our 2 cats and 3 dogs. We appreciated the pictures she sent and her prompt responses to any questions. We would definitely trust Alyssa with our pets again.”
“Hayley is a true professional and did a great job taking care of our dogs for the weekend! She was very accommodating our schedule and surpassed all expectations. Our girls had nothing but good things to say about her. Will definitely book with Hayley again in the future!”
About: Fully fenced backyard. Safe neighborhood with wide sidewalks and plenty of neighborly love. Plenty of areas for doggos to safely relax, run, play and stay. Home during days and nights. Teenagers in the house provide extra hands for running, walking, feeding, and scratching. Best of all are daily trips to Badger Mountain Dog Park. Pets are always treated gently, with the utmost respect. Never would your pet by physically unsafe or harmed in my care. Your pets safety and happiness is my #1 priority.
“Lacy did an amazing job taking care of our doodle for 12 days! Our pup is on heart meds every 12 hours and she took care of all her needs. Lacy spent the night with her as she’s never been home alone over night and even let her sleep with her. I highly recommend Lacy to watch your fur babies!”
“She did a great job with my senior dog Muffintop. She saved us short notice and was so accommodating to our needs. I received picture updates regularly and felt like she was really there to take care of Muffin so she wouldn’t be alone while we were away. Great communication, so friendly.”
“Melina was absolutely wonderful! She did a meet and greet with our dogs beforehand, which I really appreciated. Our dogs have some aggressive tendencies and certain triggers that I wanted to go over with her, and Melina was very attentive and took everything seriously. She kept us updated frequently throughout our trip, took our pups on walks, and spent quality time with them, even if that just meant hanging out and keeping them company. Really all I could ask for! I also really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to house sit and spend so much time with our dogs rather than just stopping by for quick visits. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were being cared for while we were away. I would absolutely book with Melina again! 🫶🏼 💯”
About: Passionate animal lover with 15 years of experience! Your fur babies are my number one priority while you are away. They will feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am currently a part time caregiver for my grandmother also looking to help people with their fur babies in the Tri Cities area. My schedule is flexible in the afternoon and evenings. I understand every pet and home is different, and I make sure to follow your guidelines so your pets feel safe and happy while you are away.
About: I have taken care of my own animals my whole life, as well as professionally as a career for some time. I have experience with all sorts of animals of all ages and all types of needs from playing with puppies to helping senior cats take their medicine. I have experience with some farm animals, reptiles, birds, bugs, arachnids, and small animals like hamsters, mice, rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I work a 9-5 Tuesday-Saturday, some days my schedule changes. The pet care I could provide would best fit for overnight stays, and pets that are used to being alone throughout the day. I can provide walks and drop-ins anytime outside of those working hours. Communication is incredibly important to me as a sitter, and making sure your pet is comfortable while making sure you feel they’re safe is my main goal. I send daily updates along with photos to ensure you know exactly how your pet is cared for.
About: Hi there, my name is Kelly! I've had pets my entire life (dogs, cats, goats) and last year started the process of raising my own puppy - an 84lb Pyrenees/doodle named Goose. I'm a big believer in meeting the enrichment and activity needs of pets, whether that be hiking, playing, sniffing, or cuddle time. I know caring for pets can be overwhelming at times and I would love to help you care for the furry members of your family. My schedule is fairly flexible and I am available for morning, afternoon, or evening pet care! Its a hot summer so always happy to figure out cool activities for pets to enjoy. When caring for pets in your home, I will follow whatever guidelines you have put forward. You know best when it comes to your pets and your home!
“Liz is so great with my nutty Aussie! Patient, sends good photo updates. She stayed in my house and made my girl feel loved, took her on walks which can be a challenge. Thanks so much!”
About: I have a lot of experience in pet sitting for other people, but most of my experience, especially for senior dogs was with my own pup, up until his recent decent to heaven I did a lot of things for him to keep him happy and comfortable, bathing feeding, lots of lifting (he was a big boy lol) and for a little I had to help him pee and clean up accidents quite a bit, so I have a lot of understanding in pet care. I’m also good with cats, I know the signs of when to give space and am very patient, and pretty fast if your pets a runner. I work part time and have lots of free time to help you with your pets! Weekdays especially! But between shifts I’m also available during weekends My home has a fenced back yard with a good amount of space, I have a super friendly mini golden doodle, who would love to be friends, there’s also nothing fragile that pets could easily break here.
“Amazing as always. Gone for the holidays and Juanita is 100% reliable and I am so confident my pups are in good hands when I am gone. I also know they will get the exercise I give them each day.”
“Maggie was AWESOME! We needed a sitter for 3 cats and 2 dogs on short notice for 7 days to attend a funeral in another state. She came highly recommended from Rover. The pets loved her and seemed to bond with her instantly when they first met her. We received constant updates and pictures from her. If there was ever a question or concern she was quick to ask and get the answer she needed. One of our pets is a severe chewer and she did her best to accommodate to his tendencies. When we returned, the house was in perfect order. She had emptied the litter box and cleaned everything! And none of the pets seemed traumatized as has happened before when we left them with others for even short periods of time. They were happy and very playful. We would definitely recommend her and use her again if she was available!”

About: I have always owned a pet! I’ve had two dogs and one cat during my lifetime. I love animals, and I think this would be the perfect job for me!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Badger
Kaiti is the absolute BEST!!! My first booking with her it was super last minute and I was incredibly apprehensive as I had never used Rover before. She instantly had me at ease and the pups ADORE her!! She has since watched them for me now a few times, and every single time, my heart is at ease knowing my babies are cared for and loved while I’m away! I have two senior dogs who have supplements etc that they need and she handles it all without blinking an eye. If you’re in need of a sitter; SHE IS THE ONE YOU WANT ♥️

The average cost of House Sitting in Badger is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $57 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 Badger 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 Badger 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 Badger 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.
