“Ann K. was amazing with my senior pets. I knew as soon as I returned that they had been given attention and were cared for lovingly. They were relaxed and happy to see me. It was also clear that my home was kept clean. Ann has excellent communication skills and asked all the right questions about caring for my pets and my home. I just hope she is available the next time I go out of town.”
“Excellent work ethics and attitude. Very attentive to the pets and details. I would gladly hire Sofia again to dog / house sit.

About: I have experience caring for all types of animals, including dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and exotics. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant with 250+ clinical experience hours, pursuing a degree in Veterinary Medicine. I will be interning at a vet clinic this summer, but I will have a fairly flexible schedule for care for pets in their own home. Pet care for pets of my own is a part of my weekly routine, including bathing, cleaning, and feeding. I hope to make client pet care a part of my weekly routine as well. I have experience in all aspects of pet care, to ensure a safe and healthy environment to all involved. Cleaning, feeding, bathing, and medication administrationh are just a few of the ways I can cater to you and your pets needs. Creating and maintaining an environment perfect for your pet is my top priority.
“Yvette took excellent care of Bailey. He is 15 and not feeling his best; yet, she was there for him all the time she watched him while we were at a son’s wedding. Anyone who is looking for the best care for your pet, you can’t go wrong with Yvette.”

About: I’ve owned animals of many kinds since I was born, and been a primary caretaker since I was about 10! I’ve been trusted to care for animals of every age - from rambunctious puppies and kittens to seniors who need a little more patience - and every size, whether it be a giant dog or a fragile kitten. I understand the importance of individual care, so I am ready to learn all about your animals and adapt to their needs. Additionally, I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant and have experience with many basic care skills. I am familiar with routine care such as feeding routines, walking, bathing, and training. I have ample experience with oral, injectable, and topical medications, and can confidently administer first aid if necessary. Additionally, I am ready to slow down and give extra care to any senior or special needs animal who may need a little more attention. I hope to make every pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible while in my care, and will make sure to keep you updated with pictures! I currently don’t work, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets. They can have my full attention, I can make frequent visits, or just drop by every once in a while, whatever works best! Saturdays I am not available for walks, but I am happy to sit through the weekend if needed! While I don’t offer sitting in my home due to my own dogs, I am confident I can adapt to whatever routine your animals are used to in your home. Whether they are high maintenance or totally chill, I am willing to provide whatever necessary to make sitting as stress-free as possible!
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from helping my parents dog sit all breeds and growing up to raising my own cats and dogs. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal care and individual needs. I’m reliable, organized, and intentional with my time. I genuinely care for your pets and will make sure you feel that way too! I’m home for the summer, so I will be available to care for your pets all the time! I plan on going beyond the feeding time and the potty time to ensure your pet feels safe and loved. I love to spend time with animals making them feel loved, and making sure they are safe. Let me know what your pets love to do and I will make sure to do that!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blue Mound
This was our first overnight booking, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Our dogs were well cared for, comfortable, and happy while we were away. We received updates and felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. We would definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Spencer stayed in our home and watched 2 of our furbabies for 3 nights and did a great job. He made sure to communicate with us, providing updates and photos. When we got back home, he left our home the same way he found it and we would have never known he had stayed there. He took great care of our dogs and home, which is greatly appreciated. We will definitely use him again. Thank you Spencer.
Makae and her family were incredible!! We are always anxious to leave our pup with someone else, but they exceeded our expectations in every way. They take such great care to keep your dogs on their routine and make sure they are comfortable! Makae was in constant communication, and we received so many updates and cute pictures. It is clear how much the family loves all dogs like their own, and we would absolutely trust them to watch our boy anytime!! ❤️
Alicia was awesome! She showed up to our meet and greet incredibly prepared, and I knew immediately I could trust her. She sent a ton of photos the whole time I was gone and the house was in great shape when I got home. Definitely would recommend and will book with her again for sure.
Kenzie did an amazing job helping us out with a last minute sitting request. She had great communication both before and throughout the sitting.. She was also attentive as we went over the care instructions for our little ones. During the stay she kept us updated on our pups and sent us pictures which we love. Wouldn’t hesitate using her again!
Rumi and Sona had such a wonderful time with Deeyana! From the very beginning, communication was easy and reassuring. We received regular updates and photos, which made us feel at ease knowing our pups were happy and cared for. Both dogs immediately warmed up, and it was clear they were given lots of love, attention, and playtime. We especially appreciated the patience and care shown to make sure Rumi and Sona felt comfortable in their own routine. We’re so grateful to have found such a trustworthy sitter and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable who truly cares about your pets.
Anna was AMAZING! She took great care of my baby Khali. I am so glad I chose her. I was worried about leaving my dog with her, just because I’ve never left her anywhere except daycare so my nerves were everywhere, but Anna updated me each day and sent me adorable pictures/videos. Thank you again Anna and Cameron lol. Khali will surely be back!

FAQs for House Sitting - Blue Mound
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Blue Mound on Rover is $39.59 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 4,247 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Blue Mound. 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 Blue Mound 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 Blue Mound 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 Blue Mound 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.
