“Machalah helped us out last minute and gave my fur-babies lots of love and attention, staying overnight with my anxious Aussie for two nights. She went above and beyond! I would definitely book her again.”
“She kept on top of my dogs’ changing needs and kept me in the loop so the week away didn’t feel quite as worrying! And we returned to the house even more tidy than we left it, which was a lovely surprise!”
“Justine watched our pups for a week and they were obviously well-cared for and loved. I was relaxed the whole time away knowing that she had them in hand. We had a small hiccup with exactly which food to feed, but it was an easy fix and I look forward to having Justine back as often as she is available. She left the house just as she found it- possibly even better.”
“First time using ROVER, First time leaving my special needs lil boy since his adoption in Jan 20, 2023. Brisket was born blind, and I always refer to myself as his seeing eye hooman. We have a very special bond ♥️ Matthew and Erin were absolutely amazing! They went above snd exceeded all my expectations... Brisket was showered with attention, they took him outside in my fenced in backyard and played with him,and continued playing inside. I received daily messages, pictures and videos that just melted my heart and made me feel much relief knowing brisket was receiving excellent care, and attention. Upon arriving home, my house was spotless, bedsheets were changed... Matthew and Erin have set very high standards in petcare, housesitting. They will be my only choice and preference in all furure care. This young couple deserve a much higher rating, but 5:stars is all thats offered!!”
“Samantha was great! She stayed at our house for a week with our 2 dogs and sent photos and updates daily, the dogs were happy to have her there and not be cooped up in a kennel while we were away. Samantha was very flexible when we had to get home a day later than expected. She took great care of our dogs, other small pets and our home. Will definitely rebook when needed in the future!”
“Sharon was great with our harley she helped out with walking her and getting her use to going out at night again. Sharon kept us informed of everything that was going on with harley and how she was doing and sent us pics. We will definitely use her again.”
“This is the second time we’ve used Donna for pet sitting. She’s a class act. Our dog Linde seems to adjust to Donna well and is in very good humor when we get home. Donna always leaves our house cleaner than it was before we left. We’ll definitely use her again if she’s available on our next trip.”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing! We left our two pups at home with her for 8 days and never once had to worry!! She is definitely a dog person and played with our puppy and loved on our older dog. I don’t even know if our dogs had a chance to miss us!”
“Kristi was great! She was friendly and our dogs liked her right off the bat. They had a blast with her, going on walks and playing ball. I loved all the pictures she sent too! It’s so comforting to see your fur babies being well taken care of while you’re away, and Kristi did just that!”
“Gussie took care of our dogs on such short notice, which was a relief after our other sitter cancelled due to a family emergency. Gussie communicated and sent photos daily, which I appreciated. One of our dogs is 17 and she met his senior needs. Our other dog usually takes a while to warm up to people, but it did not take her long to warm up to Gussie.”
“Lawdy was wonderful! She stayed at the house all weekend and took such great care of our babies. We will absolutely reach out to her again in the future. Thanks, Lawdy!”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! We had a dog sitter cancel last minute so were panicked to find someone on just a few day’s notice. Elizabeth responded within the hour and we had a meet and greet scheduled the next day.Our dogs were so well taken care of - one is getting grumpier in his old age and she was so patient and able to win him over before the end of the stay. She went above and beyond by helping when a technician needed access to the house and washing the sheets before leaving. Definitely one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever used!”
“I had absolutely no worries the whole time I was on my work trip. Katlin sent me tons of pictures and I could tell my Spikers was in good hands! Will definitely request her again! Thank you soooo much Katlin!!!”
“Ashley was absolutely fantastic! She watched my two dogs overnight. My newest pup had some anxiety and acted aggressively and Ashley was great, she kept me updated and worked with Oliver to make him more comfortable. Couldn’t recommend enough!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dog and watched my neighbors dog, making sure they are well fed, get enough time outside and feel loved while their families are away! I’m currently doing odd jobs over the summer and because of this, I am able to spend a lot of time with your pets! I will be out of the house periodically but will not be out longer than 3-4 hours at a time. I keep a clean and pet-friendly environment at home with plenty of space to relax and a backyard to run around and enjoy time outside. My family will also love spending time with your pet and giving them lots of attention!
“Haley was amazing at keeping me updated with pictures and videos! Her work schedule aligned with what my dog was used to so it worked perfectly. I would definitely recommend Haley to anyone looking for dog sitter!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cave Spring is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cave Spring
Samantha always does an amazing job with our pets when we are out of town. We never have to worry one bit. This time she was administering antibiotics to our large dog and did a fantastic job with meds and frequent updates. It’s such a relief knowing our animals are well taken care of while we are gone
we have used Cecilia twice now and plan to use her much more in the future as well! We were stuck six hours away with our keys locked in the car and she stayed long enough to make sure that our pups were safe. Consistent pictures and funny anecdotes to follow, she’s one of the best dog sitters we’ve had! Highly recommend if you are looking for someone who can give you the peace and comfort of knowing that your pups are being truly taken care of.
De'Asia stayed with our 66 lb sweet but dog-reactive handful for several days. We told her she was welcome to walk him but didnt have to. She took him all over thre neighborhood successfully while keeping me well informed of how he was the whole time. That alone would have been above and beyond. My house was cleaner than I left it, possibly cleaner than I've seen it in months. She treated both my house and my dog like her own. I told my husband to make room because I was going to beg her to move in. Heck. We might go out of town just to give the dog another chance to stay with her. I've had a lot of rover sitters over the years and De'Asia is the best we've ever had. I strongly suggest booking her, as long as its not while Im also out of town.
Oscar and Elmo said they really liked Aelish. They said she was very accommodating, took good care of them, fed them and snuggled with him. They were very happy with her services and want to use her again in the future. I was also happy with her services and with the way she stayed in communication. This let me know everything was going well.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cave Spring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cave Spring on Rover is $48.84 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 376 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cave Spring. 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 Cave Spring 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 Cave Spring 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 Cave Spring 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 Cave Spring. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
