About: Hi! I'm Dakota, and I've been around animals my entire life. From schnauzers and springer spaniels to Rottweilers and labs, I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe pets are family, and I love getting to know each animal's unique quirks and needs. I'm a dependable, punctual person who values honesty and communication. I understand that life happens and not everything is within our control. Whether schedules change unexpectedly or your pet needs a little extra patience and understanding, I'll always do my best to work with you and provide compassionate care. I have two energetic kids, a Russell Terrier, and a playful Labrador of my own, so caring for animals is simply part of my everyday life. I start each day with walks, feedings, potty breaks, and plenty of pet care, and I end my days the same way. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for is second nature to me. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and quality one-on-one attention for your furry family members. I have a small fenced backyard that's perfect for supervised playtime and games of fetch. I also prioritize safety by avoiding outdoor activities during extreme temperatures and always following your pet's feeding schedules and care routines. My goal is simple: to care for your pets the same way I care for my own.. with patience, kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your animals, and I would be honored to be that person for your family. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I have two rambunctious kids, a Russell Terrier, and a Labrador of my own, so I understand that life with pets can be both busy and rewarding. I'm currently a full-time online student, and aside from my regular household responsibilities, I have a very flexible schedule. Checking in on fur babies is easy to accommodate and truly one of my favorite parts of the day. I love providing pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a small, fully fenced backyard that provides a safe space for supervised outdoor play and games of fetch. My Labrador is very playful and loves having a canine companion to run around with! While my yard isn't large, it's plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and fun. Your pet's safety and routine are always my top priorities. I closely follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and outdoor time. Walks are also an important part of a dog's day, weather permitting, and I always check pavement temperatures to ensure it's safe for sensitive paws before heading out.
“Thank you Marsha! Always prompt communication, lots of photos to put my mind at ease, and knowing Finn is getting lots of love and attention--we appreciate you!”
“Kirk was absolutely wonderful with my 2 cats and 2 dogs. He was the pet whisperer with one of my cats who is usually very skittish. I thought Kirk would barely see him, but he sent pictures of my cat rolling around on the bed for attention. He sent lots of pictures of all of them and kept me updated while we were away. He left the house very tidy. I will definitely book Kirk again in the future!”
“Sophie is amazing. She is responsive and communicates really well. When I asked for her to come early she was gracious to accommodate us. Our dogs are well taken care of and our house is as clean as we left it with her. Thank you again Sophie.”
“Loved working with Kaylee. Our dog can be destructive when we’re gone and she spent lots of time loving on him. She sent pictures and texts so we could see how it was going. She asked questions if she needed more info on Joey’s routines. And she remembered to water the plants and bring in the mail and the garbage cans. Definitely recommend!”
About: I've had pets since I was born, so usually i'm quick to be befriended by most animals. Over the years I have had experience with taking care of many pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and I’m always loving and attentive with all of them! I am available for regular walks in Tri-cities and overnight stays in both my camper home/your home! I am also available for walks weekdays between 7am-5pm weekdays (depending on location). Weekends I am available from 7am-3pm, unless boarding which is much more flexible! Care for your pets will be given with my absolute undivided attention! Pets are always welcome in my camper home, which sits on a grassed garden area in lovely Benton City. I kindly ask that supplies (including doggy bags, crates and bowls) should be provided by you upon arrival, as well as anything your pet may find comforting to have with them.
“Paulina did a wonderful job with our pets. The stay was during Christmas, so it was extra special that she could stay at our home to care for our dogs. I will definitely have Paulina again!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets stay on their regular routine. I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping them happy and safe. I have a flexible schedule which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure your pet stays happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. There is a fully fenced backyard so pups can run around safely. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep a clean and safe environment, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care so they feel relaxed while you’re away.

“Ian did a wonderful job watching Butter and Callie over the weekend. I was a bit nervous about leaving the dogs. Butter (Boston Terrier) had torn his cornea a few weeks before and was still wearing a cone while healing. Ian administered all of Butter's prescribed medication, including eye drops, while we attended our son's wedding in another state. Ian sent pictures and updates, which calmed my nerves considerably.”

About: I work as a veterinary assistant at an urgent care facility in town. I’ve worked in urgent care going on 5 years and general practice for 2 years. I occasionally cat sit and dog sit. I have a lot of knowledge in my career but I also love spending time with animals and making sure they’re happy, the clients and I just overall enjoy the joy they bring to me! I work 3 12s but I am able to stop in the check on the fur babies on my lunches. I also am very flexible with times I need to go take care of them on my days off as well. I have two kitties of my own. I don’t plan on being able to board pets at my own home due to me renting a house without a fenced backyard.
About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember, starting off with bunnies. I got my 1st puppy (chihuahua weiner mix) in 2010 he is now 14 and a senior but I trained him myself and is living a happy life. I also have 2 huskies that I trained when they were puppies and they have a lot of personality. So I can hold it down when I take them all on a walk. I work weekdays but am available weekends for any pet care. I like to workout but going on walks is also a nice way to stay active. I follow their feeding or medication schedule and other instructions given by client. Please let me know of triggers or any other information that will ensure I can take the best care of your fur baby.
“Briana is a responsible, reliable and respectful person. She watched our pup while we were out of town. She followed our guidelines we provided to her on caring for our dog as well as watching over our house. She was great at providing daily updates to ensure our dog was okay. She kept our house clean and tidy.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Chaffee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 215 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chaffee. 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 Chaffee 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 Chaffee 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 Chaffee 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.
