“Lynn is THE BEST. She cared for our dog like he was her own! She gave so much attention and love to him and spent so much quality time with him. She truly enjoys being with your animal and that means a lot! We will use her again if she is available.”
“Abby was absolutely amazing! My dog loved her instantly and she was so attentive to his individual needs and anxiety. I was anxious to try out new dog sitters as I just moved to the area but she was always keeping me in the loop and was extra loving to my fur buddy. Will use again!”
“Our dog was very well cared for by Eva. She provided updates and photos several times a day, kept us informed of how well Daisy did with her normal daily routine and played with her both inside and outside. Daisy can be stubborn on walks when my husband isn’t present, but Eva followed Daisy’s routine, encouraging her to walk even though she didn’t go as far as she normally would. She kept a close eye on Daisy’s behavior and called us immediately when concerned about a chronic health issue. We talked it through over the phone and we appreciated Eva’s ability to notice the change in Daisy’s behavior and take necessary action. Her loving care helped us relax and enjoy our trip knowing our girl was well cared for at home. We came back to a calm and rested dog and we truly appreciate it!”
“Keaton was amazing with our 5 month old ball of energy puppy! I love how she kept us updated, and sent pictures during her visit. She even made time a day prior to come meet our pup! Very appreciative of her!”
“Gabrielle was amazing! I always worry about leaving our older dog, Bogey, he has anxiety issues and needs a lot of love and care. Gabby stayed in our home while my family and I were on vacation. She did an incredible job making sure Bogey went out when needed, she cleaned up any accidents he had, and the most important thing is she stayed the night in our home, which allowed Bogey to sleep in her bed and gave him comfort all night, as if I was home. I had zero concerns or issues while gone and I hope she’ll want to come back to watch Bogey for us again. Thank you so much!”
“Vanessa did an amazing job with Lilo and Stitch. I could tell by the photos she sent they were very comfortable and happy to be around her. I will definitely book with her again!!!”
“Skylar did an amazing job with Wrigley. It was so nice to come home to a happy dog that got to stay in his comfort zone while we were away. Skylar left the house spotless and was a great houseguest! Would highly recommend!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Laura watching our dog, Karma! We were gone for a week for our destination wedding and we were able to fully enjoy our time knowing she was well taken care of and in good hands! Laura was very diligent about taking lots of notes over all of Karma’s routines and needs when we initially met with her and kept us updated on her each day that we were gone!”
“Mark was an amazing house sitter for us and we even quickly rebooked to use him again in December. He sent us a ton of pictures daily and regularly. This is something I very much appreciated getting constant updates/pics throughout the day, every day. This brings so much peace of mind while we are away. Would highly recommend Mark!”
About: Hi! I'm Kate, a Creighton Speech Pathology student and dog lover with a 4-year-old Golden Retriever of my own. As both a nanny and pet sitter, caring for others comes naturally to me. I've also worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My training included pet CPR, emergency procedures, and understanding dog behavior, so your pup's safety is always a top priority. I know pets are family, and I'll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I’m a student at Creighton University with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, housesitting, and plenty of playtime and attention. I have experience working at a doggy daycare and am trained in pet CPR and dog safety. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and attentive environment for every pet in my care.
About: I was raised on a farm and have cared for all sorts of animals my entire life. I now have a mature rough coat collie, Rhea. She is a very good companion for people and other pets. I worked as a Vet assistant, which included large animal surgeries. I ran the anesthesia. I rode on a Rescue Squad for 7 yrs and was a paramedic in the Military. I am very active and love spending time with pets. I am retired, very active, but I have plenty of time, energy, and love to give to your animal. I am available most any day/night. I have a large fenced-in yard. I have one very friendly fur baby to keep yours company. I have availability to crate your pets also if that is what your pet is comfortable with.
About: I grew up having lots of pets, and know the joy they bring to your home. Over the years my friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets and their homes while they are away. I have taken care of goldendoodles, pitbulls, bulldogs, beagles, and pugs. I would love to help you care for your pets or home in any way you need! I currently have a flexible schedule and am free nearly every afternoon and evening. My weekends are fairly free as well. I am happy to do extended stays as well. I follow all directions and wishes of my clients. I can honor designated feeding times and medications if necessary, including insulin injections. I will respect other belongings in the home and leave things as I found them.
About: I’ve taken care of my pets and family and friends pets for the last 10 years. Everything from walking to feeding and bathing them. I have also been trusted to dog sit at their house for 5+ days before. I have had dogs and cats my entire life and couldn’t imagine my life without them. I have also had to deal with finding a trusting caregiver while gone and I will be that trusting and loving caregiver for you! I currently have an extremely open schedule. On days I do work I would be unavailable for no more than 5-6 hours during the day. When taking care of the pets in other homes I always make sure they are not left alone for extended periods of time and make time in my day to go hang out with them. I will keep them active and play with them but also give them plenty of loves!
“Alison did an excellent job with dogsitting Lola. She's very responsive. Our house looked great when we got home, and Lola was in good spirits. I hope Alison found our place liveable and felt comfortable in our home because we wish to use her again in the future.”
About: I love dogs and cats. I have had them my whole life! My labrador just passed away so I am looking for some pet interaction! I miss her dearly. I have taken care of both dogs and cats with special needs, behavioral issues, and senior pets. I love taking both on walks, car rides, park trips, etc. whatever they like to do! Currently working a hybrid job so I can work from home if needed. I’m more of a home body so I will have plenty of chill time with your fur babies. I also like going on outdoor adventures like walks and dog parks weather permitting. At home I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. There is one friendly dog and one solitary but other pet friendly senior cat. Both can be secluded to the upstairs if needed.
“Jenna did an awesome job housesitting with our dogs. She was very open with communication and made sure our dogs were very well cared for. We really appreciated all the photos she sent daily. We would highly recommend Jenna and would definitely have her house sit again!”
“Jessica was a God send. She recently house sat for us while on vacation. She made sure my babies got all the love and spoiling they are used too while also easing my mind. This allowed me to enjoy our vacation without worrying if they were ok. The communication was great and she sent a ton of photos, which I loved! She also left the house spotless. Jessica exceeded my expectations and we will definitely use her again.”
“Kristi did an amazing job watching my three dogs! She was able to win over our nervous Nobu and they became best friends. She communicated throughout the day to provide pup-dates and shared pictures with progress. Will book for future!”

Hannah took wonderful care of our dogs, Sadie and Duke, over the holiday weekend. She kept us updated, made sure they were well cared for, and gave us real peace of mind while we were away! It was clear that Sadie and Duke were happy, comfortable, and in great hands! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and would absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you, Hannah!
Rebecca was great! She stayed out our house for 7 days while we were on a cruise. She sent updates and lots of fun pictures. On the day we were supposed to arrive home, our flight was cancelled. She agreed to stay an extra day to help us out! Our pups were in great hands. Will definitely use her services again!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Chalco
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Chalco on Rover is $42.18 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 639 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chalco. 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 Chalco 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 Chalco 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 Chalco 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 Chalco. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
