“Monica was great house sitting and watching our 4 animals. She sent a lot of pictures, videos, and updates throughout the day. You can tell she has a true passion for loving on animals. She even took our trash to the curb before locking up and leaving. We will definitely hire her again.”
About: I have been blessed with many wonderful pets in my life, both big and small! I currently own a horse, Felix. Unfortunately, my dog Alfie passed at 17 years old in January. Although I am not quite ready for a new in home pet of my own, I'd love to help you with yours! I have owned both cats and dogs through my life from puppy/kitten stage to senior life. I have experience with watching dogs, cats, and horses. I have no problem administering medication and I'm comfortable with all ages, sizes, and breeds. 95% of my job is working from home, because of that I am quite flexible in my schedule. On occasion, I do travel for work/personal but will do my best to keep my Rover calendar up to date. My home is pet free, which means your pup will get my full attention! I live in a 2 bedroom apartment. I have a nice sized patio that is fully covered. The area has a lot of green space and sidewalks perfect for a long stroll. There is also a dog park available if your dog particularly enjoys being social. I allow dogs on my furniture and bed, however have no issue with sticking to the rules if that is not part of your daily routine.
“Dina was fantastic with our pups! She was communicative and sent lots of pictures during her stay. She left our place so clean and the pups really enjoyed spending time with her. We will certainly be using her again in the future.”
“Dakota did an excellent job at taking care of our Italian greyhound and our small bird. She stayed at our place, and during all of these time she was outstanding at communication and care of our pets. Would definitely use Dakota again.”
“Michael took such great care of our 2 pups despite getting rain each day. One dog is accident prone when it's raining outside and the other needs meds 3x per day and they were happy and healthy when we got home. I definitely will book with Michael again.”
“Jaynell is a fantastic return favorite sitter for Pancake. She always does the little extra things too, and Pancake feels comfortable with her even through often standoffish.”
“I again want to shout out Kirby for being a fantastic sitter for my pup, Rudy! Rudy is an anxious pup and Kirby does an amazing job of making him feel comfortable. Kirby always sends amazing updates and pictures. I never have any issues and know that Rudy is in great hands. Thanks again Kirby! Rudy misses you!”
“Jacob was excellent with our puppy Remi. My husband and I haven’t had a night out in 6 months bc he cries whenever he is left alone and we just don’t have the heart. So thankful it all went over wonderfully with Jacob bc now we will have more nights out knowing Remi is happy and being treated so well and played with!”
“Joely was absolutely amazing with our dog, Murphy! She was so sweet and caring, and kept us updated daily with photos and messages that really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. Murphy can be shy at first, but he warmed up to her very quickly and they bonded. Our dog also takes medication twice a day, and Joely handled it perfectly. We’re so thankful for her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Willow went above and beyond. Our dog got skunked and Willow did a great job handling it. We know Daphne is in great hands with Willow and we look forward to Willow caring for Daphne again.”
“Fonz was incredibly helpful, caring for my dog during an ice storm., while I was away traveling abroad. My dog who is typically shy and nervous, was immediately attached to Fonz which was not surprising since Fonz has such a warm personality and demonstrated he knows how to communicate and handle doggies. I will definitely hire his services again. He also left my house clean. Thanks! :)”
“Nicole's the best, she helped me with my Cubbie when he wasn't well. He's well because Nicole cared about his well being. Nicole is the Best, me and Cubbie appreciate her time.”
“Ashlea was great! She was available over a holiday weekend on short notice and we felt comfortable having her come over and let out our dog while we were gone all day. She was prompt in responding and super friendly. She came over a day or two before our departure to meet and greet, all the while asking great questions about our dog. The actual visit itself went great. We received pictures while we were out and lots of updates. Our pup was very happy to have someone let him out and play with him while his owners were out for the day. Highly recommend and hopefully we can use her again!”
“Itzel house sat for our pup who wasn’t feeling well. She was super communicative and attentive the entire time. I feel grateful to have had her watching our dog during this stressful period.”
“Woody was the best! First time leaving my dog who is like my child and love of my life with someone other than family. Woody made me feel so comfortable and she took amazing care of her while I was away for a trip! Even came home to swept floors, clean sheets and towels which was never ever expected. Thank you so much Woody for your kindness, care and communication!”
“Lauren was Blue’s first nanny ever, and she truly is amazing! She kept me updated with adorable photos of Blue and followed my instructions on crate time perfectly. You can really see how loving and skilled she is with dogs. I felt completely at ease leaving Blue in her care. Thank you so much!”

Teagan went above and beyond to keep us updated on how our precious dog was doing while we were gone. It’s always nerve wracking letting a stranger stay in your home and leaving your pet in their hands. Teagan left our house extremely tidy and sent several photo updates throughout our trip. We will definitely book her again!
Chris was great. He kept us updated daily, asked about ways to keep the dogs entertained, and sent several pics. Our young dog figured out how to escape from the fenced yard. Chris figured out where he was escaping and was able to fix it. He didn’t hesitate to ask questions. The dogs seemed great when we returned 10 days later.
Reuben was great with all 3 of my pets (2 dogs & 1 cat) and also took great care of the house. He was very communicative, followed all requests, sent tons of pictures, and spent a lot of time at home with them. He also made sure to leave the house in pristine condition. I'll definitely be booking with him again!
Krystyna was an absolute lifesaver and helped us with an in-home sitting last minute after our previous sitter didn’t show up. She immediately made us feel at ease, took care of our big pup all weekend, and was such a great communicator. She provided frequent updates and spent lots of time with Jameson with playtime and walks. We would definitely recommend her and will book her again!
Luna was a wonderful sitter! She took great care of everything and was very attentive. I really appreciated how clean and tidy she left the apartment, it looked great when I came home. I would definitely recommend her and would happily book her again!
Chelsea was absolutely wonderful with our dogs and very patient when we needed to introduce our more tentative dog Mapo to her twice before her stay. She showed great experience with a more sensitive dog and he warmed up and loved her! She took care of our 2 dogs at our house for a week and they were very happy and comfortable with Chelsea - it was clear from all of the photos/videos she shared. Highly recommend her for any dog sitting or walking!
Ashley was amazing! She filled in when we needed a dog sitter last minute. She was very responsive and willing to be flexible with our short timeline. Great communication and we could tell right away that our dog would get lots of love and attention. We will definitely use her again in the future.
Amy did an amazing job watching our dog Teddy while we were out of state! She took excellent care of him, sent pictures and updates and was responsive throughout us being gone on how he was doing! She is very responsible and kind and we could tell our pup had a great time with her! We will definitely book Amy again and appreciate her so much!! We know she took great care of our dog and he had a great time with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Bluff Springs is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $83 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.
As of October 2026, there are 4,677 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bluff Springs. 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 Bluff Springs 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 Bluff Springs 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 Bluff Springs 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bluff Springs. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
