“Amber was an excellent caregiver to our pups. She was extremely detailed with her updates and followed through on our many to-do’s (as one of our dogs is on several medications). She is very trustworthy and competent. I felt very comfortable with her staying in our home - plus she was flexible during an unexpected power outage. Definitely would recommend!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Brianna. She gave us such peace of mind while we were out of town! She took excellent care of Pippa, and was great at communicating with us. She is fantastic, and Pippa loved her!”
“Tanya was great! Gave lots of updates, videos, and pictures thought my trip. Went above and beyond and is a genuine, good human. I would definitely recommend and will use her again when needed! Thanks girly!”
“Ashley was an excellent house/dog sitter! Our pup was clearly well taken care of, she spent lots of time playing and walking him. We appreciated the routine updates and she left the house clean and secured. Glad to know we can work with her again!”
“This is the second time Aida watched our two dogs and she provided the most excellent care again. Our rescue dog who is typically very scared of strangers has become so comfortable with her that we know we can leave them with her anytime and they will be so well cared for! We already have her booked again!”
“Anna was great with our 4 month puppy! She came for a meet and greet ahead of time for our pup to get to know her! She did a great job and we appreciated how much she took the pup outside and followed the training instructions.”
“Ketzia responded to a short notice request to house/dog sit for us. She did an excellent job again and left our home clean and neat. She responds timely, honestly, and appropriately throughout her shifts. She is an excellent caregiver and is someone we seek out intentionally when needing care for our pets. Thank you!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Amber! We have multiple pets, including a very fickle and sometimes difficult Newfie, and she handled everything so patiently and confidently. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were being cared for by someone who truly understood them and took the time to make them comfortable. She provided frequent updates, pictures, and communication throughout the stay, which we appreciated so much. It was obvious our pets were getting lots of attention, care, and love while we were away. Coming home to happy, relaxed animals says everything. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate sitter — especially if you have large breeds or dogs with unique personalities!”
“Tayler is so incredible. Both of my dogs absolutely love her. She took them both on walks, played in the backyard with them, and my house was absolutely spotless when I came home.”
“Noelle was amazing—she stayed in our home with our dog and cat for almost two weeks. She sent updates regularly and we came home to well-cared for pets and a spotless house. Highly recommended and we will be booking her again.”
“Sarah was great! Super responsive and attentive to my dog’s substantial needs. She did great with a super challenging pup with lots of medical considerations. Would definitely recommend Sarah!”
“Shawnda house sat for our two dogs and left our puppies happy and home spotless. She was an incredible care taker. 10/10 would recommend to anyone searching for someone to stay with their fur babies.”
“Dafflyn is the best. She is very detailed, asks great questions, follows directions and CARES! She stayed in our home for a week with our dog, even watered the garden and put out the trash for pick up. She’s a great communicator, sharing photos and videos daily. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house. Thank you Dafflyn!”
About: With over 25 years of dedicated pet care experience, combining a deep passion for animals with unparalleled expertise. Specializing in dogs of all breeds and sizes, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. From daily walks to overnight stays, your furry family members receive the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. Reliable, professional pet sitting and walking services that keep tails wagging and owners at ease. Our Home & Yard: Pups who stay with us get to enjoy a spacious lakeside backyard with plenty of room to run, sniff, explore, and relax. 🌿🐾 The yard is partially fenced, with an opening for lake access, so all outdoor time is fully supervised. There are shady spots for downtime between play sessions. In the summer months, dogs can swim in the lake (with owner permission only). Just let us know if your pup is a swimmer and has your OK to go in. Although I will be the primary care taker, my wife and I work from home full time Monday through Friday. We love to spend our free time taking care of our sweet boy Koda who is a 5 year old labradoodle. He gets along great with other dogs and loves friends. I have a home in a quiet community which is fenced. This allows the dogs to run freely outside for potty breaks and exercise for the pups.
“Jessica went above and beyond our expectations! She was so kind and helpful with all of our needs! She had great communication and sent us loving photos! We will definitely reach out again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Blaine is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blaine
Anika was wonderful! I couldn’t be more grateful for connecting with her. This was our first time leaving our senior dog with someone other than a family member and I was very nervous about it. Our meet and greet put me at ease and I was able to enjoy the time away with no worries. She sent pictures and updates. She was very respectful of our home. I will definitely connect with her again.
Jessica was amazing! We have a nervous dog that usually takes awhile to warm up to new people, but he took to her right away! She took him on multiple walks and took great care of him in our home. She also sent multiple updates and pictures so we had great piece of mind while we were gone knowing he was comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend her, we will definitely be booking with her again!!
Breanna was amazing! She kept me updated the entire stay with photos and recaps of the day. We have a senior dog that is having health issues and she took such good care of him - giving him his meds, helping him around, and consoling him. She kept my pets active and was very thorough in understanding our instructions and preferences. My dogs loved her so much and can’t wait to see her again! Also, I came home to a nice clean home, with bedding and towels washed and everything perfect, which was so nice after a long day of traveling home. It gave me extra time cuddling my dogs when I got back! Thank you so much Breanna!
Danielle was amazing! We had a long trip far from our dog and she made us feel very comfortable and relaxed being away from her. Our dog has high anxiety and it seemed to not be an issue with Danielle. She responded back immediately with any text I sent, communication was great! She sent pictures and updates, keeping the whole family comfortable while being far away.
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.
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!!
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!!!

The average cost of House Sitting in Blaine is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $56 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.

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 , 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.
