“Couldn’t have been more pleased. Emily was great and Ellie did well. I would definitely use the service again. I haven’t traveled in a long time just because I didn’t want to leave my dog in a kennel. This was a great experience and I will definitely do it again.”
“Liz was such an amazing caregiver for our high energy dog Pepper and Snakey (a not so high energy snake). I loved getting the photos and the checkins. She was responsive and super easy to connect with. I will definitely be asking her back.”
“Nicest guy ever! He kept us in the loop with multiple updates with pictures daily. He even included our rats! He watered our grass too! Absolutely will use him again. Our little puppy LOVED him. Your furry family members are definitely in good hands with Aaron!”
“Gunner is a very kind and conscientious pet and house sitter. He is communicative and provided updates and pictures of our cat happily interacting with him. My mind was so at ease knowing Gunner was taking care of my cat and home while we were away. I would definitely hire him again!”
“I’m so grateful for Kaylah’s help while I was away for a few days. My dog instantly loved her. Kaylah took such great care of my pup and home. Very respectful, communicative, and helpful. I highly recommend her!”
“The absolute best. I was so nervous to leave my two pups for the first time, but Nikki and Britney made me feel so much better about it. From all of the update texts, to the numerous photos, I’m so grateful for their open communication with us. Our girls were well loved and taken care of! Our pups and us can’t wait to have them in puppy sit again!”
“Wendy is the absolute BEST!!! She went above and beyond taking care of our two babies (high energy dog and cat). She made sure our dog was let out and played with/walked several times throughout the day, never left him alone for longer than he was able & provided all the love and snuggles! She took excellent care of our home & provided lots of updates and pictures. She gave me such peace of mind being gone for 10 days and I could not recommend someone more. We will definitely be using her for ALL future trips! Best experience I have had on Rover after using for a couple of years now. Wendy is simply the greatest!”
“Hannah is heaven sent. Our dog got into a scape thru our fence with a neighbors dog and Hannah handled it all so well. She contacted us immediately and took great care of our dog until we got home. As upsetting as it was, she was calm and respectful. Thank you Hannah! As my husband as said more than once, “Hannah is our girl.””
“Theo was an absolute gem! They did a wonderful job caring for our senior dog and rescue cat for 2 nights. Their communication was top notch and we are thrilled to have found someone we can fully trust! Couldn't recommend them higher.”
“Daniel cared for our active 16-month Australian Shepherd for 6 days. Our dog appeared happy and well cared for upon our return. Also our house was clean upon our return.”
About: I am a veterinary assistant and have worked and surrounded myself with animals my whole life. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, worked with vets, and was a dog handler and a doggie daycare over the past few summer years. I have experience with cat, dogs, fish, rodents, reptiles, and more. I love hiking and spending time outside as well, so hikes with dogs are more than welcome! I recently moved to Boise and am excited to get to know the area, so taking your dog on walks is the perfect excuse for me to explore ;) I work Monday-Friday from 8am to 5pm so i before and after my shift I can take care of your furry, scaly or slimy friends! I also don’t work weekends at all so my availability is wide open! When working with animals in their own homes, I think it’s important to understand you’re coming into their space and to work slowly to earn their trust! I have worked with many different animals and know how to read body language, so if your pet is uncomfortable I know how to work with them and listen to their needs.
“Candy is lovely, great with our older dogs and young cat, and she followed our overly indulgent care instructions for our spoiled girls to a tee. Our apartment was immaculate when we returned, which isn’t easy with 2 dogs and a cat. We have already asked her for another booking, so we’d obviously recommend her.”
About: I have one year of pet care experience providing reliable, attentive care for dogs and cats. 🐾 I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, administering medications, and following your pet’s routine. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I love creating a safe, comfortable, and happy environment while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets with patience, kindness, and plenty of love while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. 🐶🐱 I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, which allows me to provide dependable care and give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and bookings while making sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. 🐾 I have a fenced backyard and two dogs of my own, creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets in my home. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely and provide personalized care, attention, and updates to help pets feel happy and secure.
“Hannya tooth best care of Coco! I think Coco even misses her and Winson, her cute Dachshund, as she was waiting by the door for them after we got home. Thank you Hannya for always taking such great care of Coco and our home. We can't say enough good things about you! The Roys”
“Sydney stayed with my dog for 5 days and took great care of her. Sydney reached out to let me know that my dog was experiencing separation anxiety and asked for any suggestions on helping her, which I appreciated. We would book with Sydney again.”
“Cadie came through when I needed a last minute dog/house sitter for the evening. She was willing to meet me and get introduced to my dog within hours the same day and treated my guy with plenty of love overnight. She did a great job and was very professional. I’d recommend her and will be booking with her again. Thanks Cadie!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Blacks Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Blacks Creek on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 923 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Blacks Creek. 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 Blacks 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 Blacks 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 Blacks 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 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.
