“Stefan was great! Asked great questions during our meet and greet, so he would be familiar with all of Rosie's needs. Very communicative while we were away, letting us know how Rosie was doing. Rosie was a happy doggo when we got home! Would definitely hire Stefan again!”
“Katherine was great with my dog! My dog has separation anxiety and she enjoyed her time while Katherine looked after her :) She came by in advance to meet my dog, which was greatly appreciated.”
About: I’ve provided pet sitting and care for multiple dogs, and cats including feeding, walking, and maintaining routines for friends, family and even people around my neighborhood. I’ve loved animals since childhood, and even had my own lab for 16 years who I loved to the moon and back but sadly passed away late 2024. I know older animals require a certain level of attention and care. I love staying active, and high energy animals and I get along great! I do not mind larger animals. I have consistent availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with additional flexible availability throughout the week depending on my schedule. I’m great with planning ahead and keeping a reliable routine with my clients! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. I maintain feeding schedules, regular walks, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I always aim to keep their environment calm, consistent, and familiar. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I currently work full time nights at a hospital and I am also previously worked in emergency vet medicine for 4 years. I have always loved animals big and small. I hope to get to care for yours soon! I am here to care for your pets in the exact same way you do while you are away. You just let me know how you would like me to care for them and I will do just that. I have stayed over nights with a Labradors, beagles, golden retriever, Pomeranian, cats, Australian shepherd etc. and we had a blast. I can also give baths as needed or medication if they are on daily pills/oral liquid/shots anything. I hope you will consider me and I hope to help you out soon!!! I do work full time however I work nights so I am home during the day taking care of my own golden. So I am happy to assist you and take care or check in on your baby/babies! I treat your house like my own. I cleaned houses growing up and I always treated others houses with respect and care. If I move/use something I put it back etc.
“Taylor was great with my dogs, Baxter and Chandler. She was super easy to schedule and she did not seem to have any issues with my two guys. Left the house as it was when she arrived. Would call again for dog/house sitting services!”
“Evelyn did a great job taking care of our furry child. We appreciate the somewhat short-notice booking and everything went really smoothly. I would highly recommend booking Evelyn if you're in need of pet care!”
About: I grew up with labs and ultimately wanted lap dogs once I moved out of my parents home. When I was 20 (in college housing) I was crazy enough to get a puppy! My little dachshund made me the most popular student on campus, shortly thereafter I adopted a min pin because being an only child can get lonely! Both my dogs lived to be 20! They recently passed away and we have been missing that part of our family and aren’t yet ready to commit to new furry pets. My daughter is 9 and has done quite a bit of dog sitting already, she is all hands on deck (with supervision) and will surely spoil your pups! We’ve had dogs overnight at our house, done overnights at others home as well as done check ins and day visits. I have experience with administering meds (pills and shots), making special diets, bathing, nail clipping, ear cleaning, teeth brushing and all the typical dog Mom stuff! We like dogs of all sizes and ages! We love to go for long walks and explore nature or play a game of chase or fetch. I work a flexible schedule Monday - Friday and like to stay busy so would be able to accommodate most requests depending on location and advanced notice. We do not currently have any furry pets in our home so your dog(s) would be our main priority! We have a large downstairs basement if your dog has a lot of energy and would get them outside for good exercise as well.
“Carolina was so caring to my Annie! She took numerous photos, gave great updates and left me Polaroids of Annie. She was also fine with me being late and was very communicative! I will certainly use her again!”
“Aida was absolutely wonderful! She watched our great dane at our house for just over two weeks while we traveled abroad. She showed up before we left to make sure everything was set. She was very communicative, sent pictures and updates as well as handled household issues without needing directions. Our dog was well cared for with walks and snuggles the whole time. Needless to say, we look forward to having Aida sit again.”
“Tanya was great! Penny, my golden doodle adored her. We got frequent updates and updates and pictures of Penny. My house was spotless when I got home. We will definitely ask Tanya to watch our Penny again!! Thank you Tanya!❤️”
“Kiara took such good care of my babies again. She always updates me with photos and status of them throughout the day and night. I recommend her highly. She also kept my house clean and looks just as good as when I left for vacation”
“Wow! Tayler is truly the best dog sitter we've ever used. She was attentive to our dog's needs, took constant pictures and really helped us around the house. Came back to our house much cleaner than we left it. She walked and played with our dogs all day everyday it seemed like! Truly cannot recommend Tayler's services enough!!!”
“Olivia is wonderful! She did a great job caring for the fur babes, and sent very cute pictures and updates! She was also flexible and very easy to work with! Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
About: I have been taking care of my own dog as well as friends, families, and neighbors dogs. I love everything to do with all animals. I am currently studying during the year to get a degree in animal studies! I am comfortable and empathetic will all kinds of dogs. I am also comfortable with giving medication as needed. I am currently home for the summer from college and looking for some work! I love all animals and thought this would be perfect for me as I have a very free schedule for the next few months! I am comfortable with staying in your home with your fur babies as well as letting them out, walking them, and providing play time! If they stay in a crate I am also comfortable with taking them out and getting them back in! I can be very accommodating to each fur baby depending on what they need I will do my best to care for all of them as if they were my own!
“Very sweet and fabulous with our dog who has a lot of separation anxiety. Our dog loved her and when I came home, she didn’t go crazy like usual if I leave the house for a bit, which means she wasn’t feeling aa anxious. I really appreciate the care for our dog and look forward to booking her again!”
About: I’m extremely playful and loving towards all kinds! There’s been dogs in my family that i’ve trained/cared for all the way from chihuahuas to golden retrievers! I love all kinds and will listen and attend to your puppy’s needs! I’m currently home from college for the summer, and will be using Rover as a full time job! My availability i’m able to offer you is endless! I provide caring and reliable pet care in your pet's own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. With years of experience caring for animals, I understand the importance of maintaining their normal routine while you're away. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I love getting to know each pet's personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are gone. My goal is to make being away from your pet a little easier by giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands.
“I can’t say enough good things about Carolyn. It’s so great to have someone take care of my fur baby and my house while I’m out of town. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Becky always does a great job with our 2 dogs. She takes good care of them, communicates well, and is responsible and timely to her commitments. As always, I always recommend Becky to anyone needing care for their dogs. Thanks again! We will definitely book with Becky in the future.
Carolina was outstanding. It was the second time she was at our house. She was wonderful about confirming the time and asking any questions in advance. She sent photos and messages daily, if not multiple times a day. My flight was delayed late at night, and she was willing to wait to see if I could get home. She even thoughtfully washed the sheets and made me feel like it was no big deal for her to stay. Upon returning, I wouldn't have known she was here; the house was so clean. I couldn't ask for a better experience. Thank you!
Taylor left the house better than she found it. My husband and I were getting back from a long roadtrip and came back to washed sheets, towels, and a vacuumed house which is so above and beyond! She was attentive to our dog, Reagan, and walked her when weather allowed. I got updates with pictures and Reagan seemed to really love her. Thank you Taylor!!
Katie was a great house sitter! She took wonderful care of our cat, Moose. He’s an anxious kitty, so it really eased our minds knowing someone was there with him. She shared photos and updates throughout the weekend, which we really appreciated! She also left our home clean and tidy. We’ve already booked Katie for another stay!
Jenea is one of the best dog sitters! She is so compassionate with our 12 year old Corgi who has back leg issues. She cares so much she slept on the couch on main level as our Corgi can’t go upstairs and she didn’t want her to feel alone. So blessed to have her in our village!!!
Lannie was flexible. responsive, conscientious and fun. Our pups are older and anxious and we came home to them being happy and relaxed. Lannie sent pictures of them enjoying their normal activities and snuggling with her, which is helped us to enjoy our time away even more. We will definitely reach out to Lannie in the future and highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Blaine
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Blaine on Rover is $38.85 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 3,479 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Blaine. 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 Blaine 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 Blaine 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 Blaine 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blaine. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
