“What can I say Taylen was the best dog sitter we've had from rover. She was extremely thorough, caring, and even went the extra mile. We felt extremely confident and safe having her watch our dog clan. Thank you for all you did we definitely will use you again when available. -Jon & Ariel”
“Kaley was a life saver! We had originally booked another sitter, but had to find a new one in the middle of our booking due to an incident that happened. We were out of state, so not only was Kaley willing and able to take our dogs on such short notice, but she even went and picked them up herself from the other sitter. She sent me photo updates daily, and even sent us home with a little gift! She was so sweet and easy to work with, we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Pamela took good care of my babies. Fireworks scare Sugar and Pam was there to help her deal with them which is really important to me. I would definitely recommend Pamela to take care of your hairy children.”
“Whitney was able to help us on short notice when our usual dog watcher canceled right before our trip. We so appreciate her help especially being last minute and she was wonderful! She took great care of our pets and sent lots of communication and photos while we were gone. Can’t wait to have her stay with our pups again soon!”
“Robert did so good with our fur babies. From the moment he first met them, I knew they were in good hands. He followed our instructions and even went the extra mile. We can’t wait to use Robert again when we are out of town.”
“Absolutely outstanding! Kept me updated upon arrival and departure. Sent me constant pictures and updates and was professional, kind and very thorough with their care. Would definitely recommend her for your pets needs.”
“Excellent sitter! I was extremely satisfied and felt confident that my pets were well taken care of. I will definitely reach out to Sam again when I need someone to look after my fur kids!”

I currently work at a middle school as a paraprofessional and have summers off. During the school year I am available after 5 on the weekdays and all day on weekends. I will keep pets clean and fed as well as provide any needed services while they’re in my care. That includes grooming, walking, and even cleaning up after them.

About: I’ve been pet and house sitting for several years, and I truly love what I do. I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience supporting pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making them feel safe and happy. I offer drop‑in visits, and dog walks perfect for pups who need potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or a good stretch during the day! Each visit is tailored to your dog’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ve also spent years housesitting, and I understand how important it is to have someone you trust in your home. Keeping dogs in their familiar home environment allows them to stay in their routine, feel secure, and experience far less stress while their pawrent is away! I treat every home with the same respect and care I give my own, and I keep pet parents updated daily so they can relax knowing everything is handled. I also offer professional bath and brush services as an optional add‑on for dogs up to 50 lbs, perfect for pups who could use a little extra pampering. It’s a great way to come home to a clean, fresh dog after your trip. Your dog’s comfort, routine, and happiness are always my top priorities! I’m here to make your time away as smooth and stress‑free as possible — for both you and your pet. Pet care is part of my daily schedule. I plan my walks, drop‑ins, and housesitting around each pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and stress‑free in their own home. I care for pets in their own home, follow their routine, crate as needed, and always use the correct harness or walking equipment exactly how you prefer to keep your dog safe on walks.

Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets. My experience includes caring for puppies all the way to senior dogs.

Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I strive to create a stress-free, fun experience for them while you’re away. I have a secure fenced yard, providing a safe space for your pet to play and relax. If your pet is more comfortable in their own space, I can easily accommodate crate based on your preferences.
About: I have cared for dogs of all ages and sizes. I have had pet dogs my whole life and can do whatever you need for your sweet babies!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Canyon
Kaley was absolutely incredible… I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better house and pet sitter. From the very beginning, she showed up right on time for our meet and greet, was warm, friendly, and took detailed notes like a total pro. You can tell immediately she’s organized and genuinely cares about doing things right. While I was away, she followed every instruction perfectly and then somehow still managed to go above and beyond. Gus was clearly in the best hands… I never once had that anxious “is everything okay?” feeling. His safety and well-being were obviously her top priority, and that kind of peace of mind is priceless. She sent regular updates and photos, when I returned home, she had even left me a note with a full summary of his care Gus was happy, healthy, and his usual self. . With only a few mild side eyes at me which lets me know he was so well cared for by Kaley he barely had time to be mad at me for being gone. You can just tell Kaley truly loves animals and has a natural way with dogs. If you’re even thinking about booking her, do it. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and just an all-around amazing human. Gus gives her two paws way up… and I’d give her ten stars if I could.
Alyssa was the absolute best! She took such good care of our babies and gave us updates all throughout the stay! We never had to worry about if the boys were okay, because she constantly gave us reassurance! She left our home cleaner than we left it! I can not recommend Alyssa enough! We will definitely be using her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Canyon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Canyon on Rover is $27.75 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 95 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Canyon. 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 Canyon 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 Canyon 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 Canyon 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
