“Brad did well with both of our dogs from the start. Our bigger dog can be a bit anxious when strangers come into the house and Brad let her sniff him and get used to him before he tried to interact with her. He sent us several pictures throughout the week and when we returned the house was just as we had left it—-or better! We will definitely try to book Brad again when the need arises.”
“Jennifer is highly professional and communicative. She gave us full peace of mind that our pups and home were in great care during our travel. We especially appreciated her thoughtfulness with instructions we left. We won’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Great overnight sitter for my two pups. They were spoiled while I was gone for half a week. The house was immaculate upon my return. Also good communication on updates.”
“Tommy was amazing from our initial meet and greet through his entire stay with our dog, Wally. You can immediately tell Tommy genuinely loves dogs and will treat yours like his own. It was our first experience leaving our dog with anyone other than family. It was so nice not worrying one bit about Wally being in good hands. Tommy communicated with us regularly, even helped with a few things around the house while we were away and when we returned, you could hardly tell he had been here. Everything was tidy and neat. We highly recommend Tommy and plan to have him watch Wally again in the future.”
“Ethan was absolutely amazing with our anxious English Bulldog for overnight dog sitting! He took the time (and multiple visits) for George to become totally comfortable! He was excellent and very knowledgeable about dogs and their personality quirks! 10/10 will be booking him again!”
“Briana was great in watching Zelda with Zelda accepting Briana the moment she met her. Briana gave frequent updates with pictures and we had no worries or concerns with her during her time here.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who believes every dog deserves care that feels personal, attentive, and consistent. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. My approach is to get to know each dog's unique personality, respect their routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether your dog is an energetic explorer who loves a good walk, a curious pup who needs stimulation, or a more relaxed companion who enjoys a little extra attention, I enjoy adapting to what makes each dog happiest. I pride myself on being attentive to the little things: following feeding and walking instructions, keeping up with established routines, communicating with owners, and paying attention to changes in behavior or comfort. I also love providing a little extra companionship, whether that's playtime, affection, or simply keeping your pup company. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house-sitting. My priority is making sure your dog receives dependable, thoughtful care and that you have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'd love to meet you and your four-legged family member! A Little About Us 🐾 As a lifelong Davidson resident, I've always believed that what makes this community special is the people (and pets!) who make it home. As I prepare for graduate school, pet sitting has become a meaningful way for me to give back to the community I love while spending time doing something that genuinely makes me happy: caring for animals. What makes our services a little different is that I work alongside my little sister, Bella, who is studying civil engineering. That means two caring, attentive sets of hands for the price of one! We are both naturally calm, patient, and kind, and we love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether your dog needs a little extra time on a walk, your cat wants some company, or your pet simply needs someone to make them feel safe and comfortable while you're away, we approach every visit with genuine care. We believe pet sitting is about so much more than checking off a to-do list. It's about building trust, respecting routines, noticing the little things, and making sure your pets feel loved even when you're not home. We enjoy everything from long walks and playtime to quiet companionship (including reading alongside our furry friends!). I'm available for morning and evening dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding with advance notice. We're flexible and always happy to coordinate with owners to find an arrangement that works best for their pets' routines, personalities, and individual needs. At the end of the day, we're not just looking after pets; we're looking after members of the family. And there's nothing we love more than making sure they feel right at home. I always make a point of getting to know each pet and asking owners what helps them feel most comfortable, whether that's sticking to a familiar routine, enjoying extra playtime, having a little quiet company, or receiving some extra reassurance. I understand that trusting someone with your pets is a big deal, and their happiness and well-being are just as important to me as they are to you. As your primary caregiver and point of contact, I'll make sure your pets receive attentive, personalized care every step of the way. My little sister, Bella, is also happy to lend an extra helping hand when she joins me, giving your furry family members even more love and companionship. Above all, I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and right at home while you're away.
“I found Desiree last minute to come stay with my dog and take care of her !! She took wonderful care of her and kept me very updated and with pictures !! Would definitely have her watch Sophia any time !”
“Katya was awesome house sitting for our two dogs (one senior with multiple medications to administer) for a long weekend. She provided us plenty of updates, our home was perfect when we got back, and our dogs were spoiled rotten. We’ve already asked when is the next time she can sit for us”
“Ashley was amazing! I couldn’t have had a better sitter. She was really sweet and cared for my dog as if he was her own. She sent me pictures of him and the communication was outstanding! When I came home and walked in my house it felt cozy and was cleaner than it was when I left. I highly recommend her and I will definitely have her back again.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets, sick, healthy, small, and large. I have been living with animals for years and would love to meet yours! I am currently not working another job so pet care is my top priority. I am able to go on lots short walks for your dog or big long walks to get rid of some energy. I have a friendly dog and cat to keep your pet company. There is no yard but we live next to a greenway for lots of nice shaded walks.
About: I've always loved animals, especially dogs! Growing up, I would sometimes take my next door neighbor's collie for walks or feed her when they were away. My schedule is flexible now and my husband and I would love a dog of our own one day, so I'd love to get some more pet experience. Thank you for considering me with your loved one(s)! I recently switched from full-time to part-time work, so I'm very flexible and available now! I might be available both weekdays and weekends - just depends on the week. I have a gentle presence when I come to your home to greet your dog - and if they're excited to play, then I am, too!
“Dawn is the best and our go to dog sitter! She has helped us with our two dogs over two holiday stays and each time we’ve returned home, the dogs have seemed very content and well taken care of. I appreciate her daily updates and pictures while we are away. She truly is the best and we really appreciate all that she has done for our dogs.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was 14 and I’ve loved it ever since! I can’t wait to be your fur babies new trustworthy companion! I’m currently a student and working part time so I’ll make as much free time as needed for your fur babies but please feel free to reach out for my weekly availability! I live in an apartment with my 2 year old dog she’s very shy but friendly and we have a fenced dog park and we live right next to the Mallard Creek greenway which is perfect for going on nature walks!
“Lauren did a phenomenal job with our fur babies. From the time she replied to our request she took the time to listen and understand our challenges. Then she came over and took the time to familiarize herself with both of our babies ensuring there wouldn’t be any issues. Great job and great person.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Caldwell
Allison was more than incredible. She was phenomenal to say the least!! she truly was a blessing from God and because she was with my Ivory I was able to enjoy the gift I was given to visit families so I hadn’t seen in seven years in Florida. Ivory and I had only been apart three days her entire life and she’s 3 1/2 years old.. I prayed and prayed, and that my daughter and I did the meet and greets and by God‘s grace he brought Allison into our lives! She’s so responsible, caring, genuine, adorable, and loves, loves animals, and Ivory absolutely adores her! She was truly a blessing. My daughter even thanked her profusely when we return because she told her never before in her life as she ever seen me enjoy a vacation more and be able to totally disconnect and stay present in the moment with my family and I could not have done that had gotten not brought Allison into our lives. She even offered to meet me downstairs in my apartment building with a wagon for my luggage. This is how considerate she is truly truly amazing and I am forever and a day grateful! Her parents did an amazing job. They were just no words to express my thank you to them or my thank you to her and the good Lord above! Thank you, Allison from the bottom of our hearts and we hope you stay in touch whenever you’re in town. I really couldn’t decide when I got back why we couldn’t both stay with her. She kept running in between us. That’s how much she loved Allison incredible and what a ginormous blessing! I would recommend her to absolutely anyone for any type of job animals or not she is an incredible and amazing young lady and reminded me so much of my daughter at that age and my daughter today! Thank you, Rover and thank you God above and thank you Allison for being you just the way you are!
Hired Ashley for house and pet sitting with my 2 dogs, and she was awesome. I have two senior (medium-sized, energetic) dogs with one who doesn’t react well to other animals, but Ashley handled them well ensuring they received adequate exercise, attention and enrichment. She was very professional, thorough, handled my instructions with ease and went above and beyond in the care of our pets and home. Would definitely recommend her services.
Peyton was absolutely amazing with Axel and went above and beyond in every way! Axel is a German Shepherd with a big personality — fun-loving, energetic, and definitely a little sassy — and Peyton handled him wonderfully. She was patient, attentive, caring, and clearly made sure he was happy and well taken care of. I especially loved that she took photos of Axel while I was away. Those little updates gave me peace of mind and made it so much easier to know he was having a great time. I would highly recommend Peyton to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. I would also be more than happy to be a reference for her if needed. Honestly, Peyton was SO great that I almost don't want to recommend her… because now I don't want to share her with anyone else! But I can't be dishonest — she’s fantastic, and Axel would be lucky to have her again!
Jeannie was wonderful with my pup, Benny! She took great care of him and also my home while I was away. He got plenty of exercise and snuggles and I got lots of updates and pictures. It was so nice to know Benny was happy while I wasn’t at home! Jeannie is warm, caring, loves animals, and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Allie was a great house sitter for my three cats, only one of whom is sociable with strangers. But her pictures prove that they became quite comfortable very quickly. She asked good questions during the meet and greet.Everybody was happy and the house was clean when I returned. Will definitely use again.
Natalia is excellent, and our girls loved her. We could tell they had been spoiled when we got home. She was accommodating to a schedule change and was available for a late night drop in last minute. I highly recommend her and we plan to use her for any future travel so our elderly dogs can stay home while we are away.

The average cost of House Sitting in Caldwell is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $102 per night.

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 Caldwell 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 Caldwell 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 Caldwell 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 Caldwell. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
