“We are incredibly lucky to have found Trula! She is the best. She takes such good care of our place and our animals. We have no worries upon coming back to some happy pets! Thanks Trula”
“Claire was wonderful with our dogs! She is incredibly gentle, kind, and patient, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about them. She listened carefully to all of our instructions and followed them exactly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable with her, and we came home to very content pups. Communication was great, and we felt confident knowing they were in good hands. We were so pleased with the experience that we’ve already booked several more stays with her. We would absolutely recommend Claire to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter and will definitely be hiring her again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Elaine is a very caring person. I have a very elderly dog who is not easy to feed. Elaine takes the extra time to help her eat. I highly recommend Elaine to take care of your pets.”
“Kate took amazing care of our pup Millie! We came home to a tired dog who was well taken care of and loved while we were away which is so invaluable! We were able to completely relax on our trip knowing that Millie was in great hands. Kate also was an awesome house guest and treated our home well. Kate also followed all requests about Millie and our home to a T. We loved getting pictures and updates too! We will 100% be asking Kate to be with Millie in the future when we are away again!!”
“Selena was awesome with my dogs and cat. She accepted the booking on short notice and was on time and professional. She provided great care for them and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend and will utilize her services again. You should ask her how helpful she is around the house! 😁”
“Freya did a great job making us feel comfortable with our kitty while we were out of town. She was very good at communicating with updates and pictures and kept the house nice and clean. Would definitely recommend”

“Lindsey was great! He watched my dogs at my house for 5 days and he did an excellent job communicating with us daily, sending pics and updates on the pups. House was clean when we returned. He had good training tips as well. He even covered up our outdoor furniture for us when it started raining, which was much appreciated. I would rebook, dogs seemed very happy with him.”
“Erica was great!! She is super responsible and sends very creative and fun photos!! She even folded my clothes that I accidentally left in the dryer before I left! I appreciate her great care of my pets :)”
“My wife and I love inviting Abigail to our home to watch our 2 dogs. We feel safe, secure, and at ease knowing our dogs are with her when we are away, which has not always been the case with other sitters we have experienced. We are grateful to have her and our dogs enjoy her presence!”
“Mickayla took wonderful care of our kitties and home while we were gone for an extended period of time. She sent lots of pics and updates. Already booked her for our next trip! 10/10”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of my family dogs. From raising multiple puppies to taking care of sick dogs. I am a reliable person and will make sure all your needs are met. I’m a huge animal lover so any pet you have I will love! I’ve raised a kitten in the last year, making sure that he is well loved and cared for. I do school work online so i’m constantly home and have a very flexible schedule to do any pet care! I would love to get more exercise as well so this would be so fun for me! I don’t currently work so I don’t have a job to keep me busy. My cats are kept inside for safety with lots of toys and furniture to keep them busy. I enjoy playing with animals and I’m aware of animals body language so if I need to go slow with an animal I know when to do so
About: Pets are my life. They have always held a special place in my heart I would love to help others with there animals if they needed the help I’m hoping that I can make this my part time job for now. This would be my first ever job, I don’t really do well working with people I have bad anxiety lol but animals are my specialty. I treat them as if they were my own and love them unconditionally. I do live in an apartment, we are looking to move soon. I have two dogs of my own I take them out in the morning when I wake up they usually only go pee and then after that I feed then play make sure that they are happy and taken care of then I go on and do my thing like take a shower blah blah blah then in the afternoon I take then for a poo and for a walk of course thennnn after that we go back home chill till dinner time feed them wait another hour then they take there night potty. That’s our routine Now I am very adjustable/flexible with what your animal need and what you would like for your animals
About: Have owned dogs and cats since I was young, but especially dogs. I've potty trained and dealt with rescue dogs. Am very used to big dogs (3 german sheperds) Recently left part time job so I can give even more time to your pets! Even when working I would check in with animals 4-5 times a day. I acknowledge that animals get lonely to. Am used to walking our dogs for long walks, and very very experienced in tug of war and fetch. Our dogs get a healthy mixture of human foods proven to be good for animals.
“Allie took great care of our fur kids while we were on vacation. She asked really good questions before we left and communicating was easy, with quick response. We also appreciated the thoughtful photos/updates about how they were doing! Will definitely rehire for future pet-sitting needs.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Butteville
This is the third time Mickayla has stayed at my condo to care for my dog and cat while I was on vacation. She always does a stellar job, which is why I continue to rely on her when I need a pet/house sitter. She provides updates with little notes and photos, and always leaves my condo in pristine condition. She is very prompt with her communication and always keeps me informed. I highly recommend Mickayla!

FAQs for House Sitting - Butteville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,552 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Butteville. 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 Butteville 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 Butteville 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 Butteville 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.
