“Taylor house sat our 3 year old Golden Doodle and did a wonderful job. Our pup was well looked after and happy and she left the house as she found it. She was in touch over the stay with pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”
“Ria was outstanding! Ria was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Very loving and playful with our dog and our dog loved having Ria! Would highlight recommend! Recommend so much we are going to book Ria again for our upcoming spring vacation! Thank you Ria!”
“Kelly did an outstanding job watching our dogs and house sitting! She's a natural with pets - my shy ones warmed up to her right away! We appreciated the frequent communication and the plentiful photos and all the little things she did to care for them and our house while we were away!”
“Alyssa was fantastic. We just arrived home to two very happy pups. Alyssa did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and the house was immaculate. She was communicative and provided updates and photos. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Alina did a great job dog sitting for Hatley over a long weekend. He seemed to really enjoy her company, was well cared for, and Alina left the place in great shape. Thanks, Alina!”
“Our pup is not usually 'open to new relationships' but she quickly warmed up to Claire. The weather posed significant challenges during Claire's stay but she managed everything with aplomb. Great job!”
“Meredith has been absolutely incredible as our house and catsitter over a week-long trip. We have a somewhat complicated situation (some of our cats don't get along), and she's navigated that wonderfully. She provided many pictures and detailed summaries to help us understand how they've been doing and has been responsive to suggestions or requests along the way. Meredith really went above and beyond, and I would happily recommend her services and hope to work with her again in the future.”
“Nicole stepped in and was able to help us out with a last minute sit for our cat and dog. They loved having her stay with them and were well taken care of. We came home to a spotless home and happy pets! We would definitely use Nicole again!”
“We hired Sophia for a second time and it was excellent! She stayed in regular communication with us and our pups were happy and healthy during her stay. She also kept the house clean and tidy. We’d definitely recommend Sophia - she is a fantastic sitter!”
“Natalie came into my home and made shy anxious Bruno her friend. I really appreciated her patience! She not only took great care of Bruno she took care of my home while I was gone.”
“Lauren was so patient and loving with our very anxious doggo, Zeke. She went out of her way to play and engage with Zeke to help him warm up to her. In just a few hours, Zeke was cuddling near her on the couch and letting her give him belly rubs (a big deal in Zeke’s world)! She was extremely communicative, sending lots of updates and photos. We felt so comfortable knowing Zeke was in such caring and capable hands! We look forward to having Lauren stay with Zeke again and hope they will become best buds 😊”
“Aiden did an exceptional job watching our dog and house sitting while we were away for a week. Our dog was clearly well-loved while we were gone, with plenty of outside time and playing. Aiden kept us posted with updates and pictures, and asked insightful questions that showed how on top of things he was. He was very respectful of the house and left it in great condition. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Alphine took such incredible care of our dog, Luna, and our cat, Dullahan! She was clearly comfortable with larger dogs and even went above and beyond to walk Luna despite our complicated requests around her leash reactivity. It was easy to communicate with Alphine throughout our trip and we felt confident our pets were in good hands because of it. Alphine also took incredible care of our home. We can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Emi was the best dog sitter we’ve used on Rover! Our dog is a rescue with separation anxiety and we had just moved two weeks prior to our travel plans, so I was nervous about finding someone to stay with Buddy, but Emi was so reassuring, communicative, and sent lots of great pictures and videos. I even came home to a sweet handwritten note welcoming us home and recapping her stay. I have no doubt that our dog was in good hands and great company and I cannot recommend Emi’s services enough. It truly makes a difference when you can travel knowing that your pet is being loved on and well cared for. We will certainly be repeat customers!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Calvander
Sophia was excellent! From the initial contact and meet & greet, through the end of our trip, Sophia delivered a wonderful level of customer service that is so rare these days! Sophia bonded so well with our dog, Roxy, and took excellent care of her and our home. Absolutely amazing!
Lauren was great with Scout, Remi, and Nellie! Her communication was stellar, and we loved getting all the photo updates while we were away. Having complete peace of mind about our dogs made our vacation so much better. We highly recommend her and will definitely rebook!
Cassie was absolutely great! Our dog liked her right from the meet and greet. She was communicative, professional, and caring towards our boy and made us feel very comfortable leaving him to her care. House was clean and organized just as we had left it when we got back. We definitely plan to reach back out to Cassie in the future!
Aiden did an exceptional job watching our dog and house sitting while we were away for a week. Our dog was clearly well-loved while we were gone, with plenty of outside time and playing.

We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for pet care!
Our two dogs loved Christina and she did a great job with them. Christina stayed in our home to take care of our girls. She was very conscientious and responsive. We had trouble with our flight returning and Christina was a big help. She stayed and fed our girls so we didn’t have to worry about them while we were waylaid by our airline. I would 100% recommended Christina to my friends and family.

FAQs for House Sitting - Calvander
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Calvander on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,770 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calvander. 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 Calvander 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 Calvander 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 Calvander 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Calvander. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
