“Desiree took such great care of my boy. She followed all directions that was given such as administering eye medication. She took him to get groomed as an added bonus without me asking. She was willing to meet prior to do an introduction which was greatly appreciated. Desiree provided me with pictures and updates during the stay. I will be booking with her again in the future. I think my dog gained a new friend 🧡”
“Sasha was great with communication and photos of our pups while we were away. She left the house very clean and even grabbed the mail and a few packages for us. Our dogs were very happy to see us when we got home, and it’s obvious they were well taken care of. I would highly recommend Sasha as a pet/house sitter.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog Walter received. Alex was incredibly attentive, responsible and kept us updated with great communication throughout her two night stay. Walter absolutely loved her and so did we. It’s such a relief to know he was in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend.”

About: I'm high energy and giving. I grew up with big dogs my entire life and this is the first time I have been without one in awhile. My golden retriever passed away last summer and in due time I will be getting another dog. In the meantime it brings me here so I can help others when they need it.

I had a routine when I had my golden which included waking up, eat our breakfast and then go for a nice walk, followed with our daily trip to the dog park. I moved to a duplex, so boarding dogs is a bit harder for me now. However, I am still open to having them stay with me if they do okay with walks. I make sure the house is clean and safe, especially having a puppy. I keep a plethora of toys available, daily walks, grooming appointments and food. I do everything to make sure any dog is living their best life, because they're the angels that walk this earth.

Desiree went above and beyond her responsibilities! All three of our pups loved her!! This was the first time we had someone housesit and she provided so many updates, pictures, and helped put our minds at ease! I will definitely be booking her again!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were satisfied with the care Fox gave to Sassy, but wish we could have been able to talk to her personally the day we left and the day we returned. If not personally on the day we returned at least a note or text letting us know how she did while we were gone.

The average cost of House Sitting in Black Creek is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $44 per night.

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 Black Creek 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 Black Creek 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 Black Creek 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.
