“Lauren was incredible and thoughtful! She took great care of my bulldog! She was very easy to communicate with, gave us peace of mind during our trip away! Definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Alicia was an amazing dog sitter to our Clover girl! She was professional, communicative, sentus tons of pictures of our pup, which is exactly what we want when on vacation. I felt like our pup was in good hands all weekend. Our house was left clean and taken care of, and she even went above and beyond to help water our plants when we were away. She left us with a “puppy report card” which was so cute. 1000% would book Alicia again for any future pet sitting, very kind and responsible, definitely a dog person!”
“Lisa stayed at our house to watch our dog while we were out of town. She was great at sending us updated photos and details on what they did. She also left our house a bit cleaner than we had left it. I would highly recommend Lisa.”
“This was the second time Erika cared for my cat, Roxy, and she did a wonderful job. As always, she was attentive, reliable, and thoughtful in her care. She followed instructions to a tee and spent quality time playing with Roxy and working on her puzzles. I especially appreciated her detailed updates and the many fun photos she shared, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she truly understands Roxy’s personality and routines. I returned to a relaxed, happy cat and a home that was clean and well cared for. She also took extra steps preparing my home for my return, which was a thoughtful touch. I would happily trust her to care for Roxy again and confidently recommend her to others.”
“Alexis did an excellent job house sitting for our Golden Retriever! Sent lots of pictures of our pup during our trip, excellent communicator and really cares for animals. Would highly recommend!”
“Emma is a great dog sitter. She was punctual, kept me well informed throughout, and regularly sent pictures and updates, which gave me real peace of mind. She also left the house clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Donita was fantastic! We got daily pictures of Felicia and we came back to a clean house and a happy cat! We couldn't have asked for more. We'll definitely be using Donita in the future!”
“Yana took great care of my two cats for two weeks while I was away. She sent regular photo updates to me which was super reassuring. When one kitty got sick she acted quickly and brought him to my vet that day. Will definitely book her again!”
“Freya did a good job of keeping my dogs comfortable while I was gone. They clearly liked her, got lots of play, and were happy and relaxed when I got home after a late flight. Definitely will re-book next time.”
“Alyssa is the sweetest person and pet sitter! You can tell she’s a real animal lover and enjoys the time she spends with the pets :) We’ve booked her on two separate occasions and definitely plan to again in the future!”
“Denali was a fantastic sitter for our pup during our weekend away! We are very grateful that she took our last minute request and would definitely recommend her services!”
“Cora took such good care of my dog while I was away for the weekend. She was very responsive and good at communicating. She kept my home spotless, I would definitely recommend!”
“Wendi was great with our two dogs and one cat! She updated us regularly, was able to give one of them medications without any issues, and by her photo updates I could tell they were all so happy and comfortable with her. Would definitely have her pet sit again and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Nicole did a great job taking care of our Miniature Schnauzer Hans. He was happy and calm when we got home. She regularly sent photos. We are grateful that she stayed an extra night as our plane got delayed. Our house was left in the same condition as we left it. Nicole is one of the best pet sitters we have had.”
“Lucinda is just amazing.!! Thoughtful, gentle, and conscientious of my specific needs for MY high maintenance needs for my dog that I asked of her. Her communication throughout the time she stayed was impeccable. She took lots of pictures. I almost didn’t make it home her last day bcuz of flight issues and she was immediately willing to watch another day on the spot. What more could one ask for. She left my home exactly as I would. She’s also just a caring and lovely person too!!”
“With our times changing , Frank was very flexible and willing to help. Frank is great with communicating and compassionate. On return we found the house clean and a very happy puppy. Would recommend Frank highly!”
About: My pup recently passed away but I had him for 11 years. He was a high maintenance fellow so I’m up for your high maintenance dogs too. I’m big on animals not being bored. Puzzles, games, walks, etc. Even senior pups can benefit from some snuffle mat work. Most of all I just want them to feel safe and looked after while you’re away. I work a full time job M-F from home most of the time. There are days we’re required to be in the office but that doesn’t happen very often. I can make time during the day for walks when I work from home. I can also stop for cuddles and to play in the yard when we both need a break. If caring for your pet in my home, they’d be welcome on top of all my furniture. Every corner has a pet bed available and ready to use. I also have quite a few pet caves your pet might love. I do have stairs leading up to my couch and my bed. I have a ramp available if needed too to get down the 1 step into my yard. If proving care in your home, I would be a pet care professional and only interact with pet care items. I would lock up after myself and follow any directions I’d been given.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cedar Mill is $55

Lee was wonderful with our dog! She communicated really well throughout the stay, kept us updated, and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I would definitely recommend Lee and would be happy to have her watch our dog again!
I cannot recommend Monica enough! From the moment they arrived for our initial meet-and-greet, their warmth and natural way with animals completely put us at ease. While I was away, I received wonderful daily photo updates and thoughtful notes about my boy Einstein. Monica followed Einstein’s care instructions perfectly. When I came home, Einstein was happy, calm, and clearly well-loved. Five stars all around!
Sierra was AMAZING! My doodl boy Kelly fell in love with her as soon as they met. She did a great job getting my guy out for walks and keeping him occupied while I was away. The house looked great when I returned home which is always a nice feeling after being away for a few days. I will definitely hire Sierra again.
Emma, Has a very calm demeanor and made me feel at ease. I’m very protective of my pup and after talking with her I felt safe for her to watch Finley. She’s very respectful and a sweet lady that seems to have a genuine passion for animals. I could tell Finley likes her. I told her she’s welcome to come by anytime to see Fin. I will have watch Fin in the future as long as she’s willing and available. Thank you Emma!!
Yu Ting stayed with our two senior dogs for several days while we were out of town. We were nervous to leave them because both were dealing with different health issues but she provided the extra care they needed. The house was how we left it and the boys seemed well taken care of. Would absolutely book her again.
Norma did great and Bingley seemed to love his time with her! He is still a puppy and has puppy energy but she handled him in stride and her two dogs got along great with him and showed him the ropes. Really appreciated sending me fun daily photos of him having a great time, and I appreciated being able to trust her and focus on my weekend race (H2C). Would highly recommend her for any future dog sitting!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! They were incredibly communicative, reliable, and caring from start to finish. We had a mix-up with our dates, and they were still willing to step in last minute and watch our boys, which we are SO grateful for! They followed through with everything we asked, kept us updated, and even went above and beyond to make sure our boys were happy and well taken care of. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend them and will absolutely be using them again! Our boys were clearly very happy and well loved while we were away. ❤️🐾
We were so lucky to find Maria! She took care of our pointer, arthritic labrador, cat, and cockatiel for an extended vacation. She took time to learn their routines, habits, and personalities. The pointer got the exercise he needed - daily hikes and lots of ball-throwing. The lab got her medications and lots of pats. Everyone got lots of cuddles. The animals were very happy and well-cared for, and the house was cleaner than we left it. She also took care of our garden and all the house plants. Communication was wonderful - pictures, videos, and any questions. She is a wonderful house and pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cedar Mill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cedar Mill on Rover is $61.05 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 4,560 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cedar Mill. 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 Cedar Mill 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 Cedar Mill 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 Cedar Mill 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
