“We found Heather very last minute after our other dog sitter cancelled on us. Heather came in and helped with our very anxious 2 year old Nia. She came in and was greeted by a very anxious and scared Nia but was very patient with her and Nia eventually came around and by the end, they were best buds. Heather also helped with our very old cocker spaniel who is deaf and not the greatest at going outside to potty. We can’t say enough kind words about Heather. She is caring, responsible and has vet tech experience. We will definitely use her again!”

“Rachel was a wonderful sitter! Our pet takes time to warm up to new people but Rachel was able to make progress with her even on our initial meet and greet. She was calm and patient as our dog warmed up to her. We returned home to a happy and well-cared for pet and lovely, clean home that barely even showed she had been there. We wouldn't have minded taking out trash, etc but she took care of that anyway! We will be happy to work with her again.”

About: I have taken care of 10+ dogs that stayed in my home. I like to take them on walks and give them the attention they love they need! I am a college student who only has class three days a week. I like to go on walks and exercise. I do homework in my apartment for the most part. I have all the free time in the world and would love to take care of your pets for mutual companionship! I do not have a yard in my home but I have beautiful trails and green spaces where I would walk or run with your pup! I have a living room where the dog would be fed. In a clients home I would feed pets in the designated feeding area and would take them outside and spend time with them!

About: I've grown up around animals. Ive wanted a cat since I knew they existed, and since getting my first cat, I've taught him to sit, sit pretty, high five, and jump through hoops. Currently fostering a second with a compromised immune system, so I am no stranger to anxious pets, or pets with a complex care system. I work a part time job and have classes from 8-12 on Mondays and Wednesdays. Ive got my own cats, so ill spend at least hour and a half or so each day spending time with them and doing chores at home, anything else is free time to spend with your pet. Ive got lots of energy to play with your dog and love to cuddle. I can keep a steady schedule with food, bathroom, play, etc. Also able and willing to do grooming like tooth brushing, baths, and other procedures.

My pups can be skittish, and they immediately fell in love with Kayla. I hate leaving my dogs behind and I felt so reassured having Kayla in my home and taking care of them. She was great with them and was thorough and caring, with consistent communication!”

About: Hello, my animal care experience began when I was a child. I grew up on a farm, and learned animal care, and training. I have always loved animals, and felt and affinity for them. I have a background in human health care, but am well versed in animal CPR, and am experienced and comfortable administering medications including iv, and injections. I’m experienced caring for, and training pets of all ages, and stages of life. I love dogs and cats equally! I’m in the entertainment industry (musician) so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I often work on the weekends, but I will still have availability during that time. I’m not usually gone for more than 6 hours. I have no pets in my home currently. I live in a condo with a roommate. We have a small fenced yard, and a larger fenced area for dogs immediately adjacent to our yard. I love walking, and will typically walk dogs, unless there are reasons the dog can’t.

About: Pet Care Experience I’ve been taking care of pets for over 15 years, including my own pets and pets belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with different types of dogs and cats, their personalities, routines, and individual needs. I’m dependable, patient, and easygoing, and I’ll make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and want them to feel comfortable and safe. I'm currently working full time, I am available to sit weekends and nights. I can also do weekdays, I would stop by before work at 8:30am and come back after I get out at 4:30pm. I can also stay nights if that's preferred. Your pets safety and comfort always come first. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can relax and feel at home. I’m respectful of each pets personality and routine, and I take the time to earn their trust. You can feel confident knowing your pets are in dependable hands and getting the care and attention they deserve while you’re away.

“I cannot recommend her highly enough! She was phenomenal and went above and beyond in caring for my dogs and my home. From the start, she truly listened to my care instructions and respected the routines and individual needs of each dog. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind while I was away. I returned to a clean, tidy home and, most importantly, happy dogs who had clearly been loved and well cared for. As a pet owner, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing someone treats your dogs with that level of care. She exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely trust her with them again!”

“Grace immediately bonded with Quinn. Not only was she attentive to him, but she communicated regularly, took lots of pictures, offered to do laundry, and even changed the bedding before she left. Grace was approached by my next-door neighbor, a condo president (who frequently misunderstands his purview), in a verbally aggressive way. She handled herself admirably and made it clear she would not leave Quinn. I would book Grace again.”

“Bennett was amazing. He stayed with our 5 animals (2 cats and 3 dogs) for an entire week at our house. When we interviewed our protective dog actually settled down within a few minutes. We were sold. He was able to deal with their food which is several steps because they get fresh food, kibble, and supplements as well as a cat who gets meds with meals and a pill once a day. The picture updates just confirmed he was the right man for the job. They are looked so very happy and even Charlie our hiding cat came out. We will definitely hire Bennett again. We highly recommend his services. He is caring and it really shows.”

About: My love for animals started when I was 16 and I got my first dog who turned into our family dog, she is 16 now and I am 32! | love helping out friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, and even bath time. I love spending time with furry ones and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for, so much I’ve volunteered at different shelters both in Mexico and in the US. Our family dog on my profile does not live with me, she lives with my parents. Thanks to my flexible job, pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have plenty of free time. I'm flexible and available for last minute bookings, whether it's a quick walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether in my home or yours, I follow all instructions to maintain their routine.

Over the years, I’ve had several great sitters who've grown up and moved on to big-girl jobs and busy lives. They still help out when they can, but their availability keeps getting more limited, so I’ve been looking for someone I can count on, and I’m so glad I found Heather. She house-sat for my two cats, Winston and Monkey, on short notice this weekend. I’m always a little nervous trying someone new, but she came over beforehand to meet the boys and immediately put me at ease. Winnie had his shots the day before I left, so I felt a little guilty leaving him. Heather’s updates were wonderful. She commented on all their weird little quirks, which told me they felt safe and comfortable enough with her to just be themselves. It meant so much to know they weren’t stressed while I was gone, and that both boys were happy and relaxed when I got home. Thank you, Heather! I’m already looking forward to having you back.

We can’t say enough terrific things about Savory and her week-long stay with our dog and kitten. She was just the best!!! From the very first message we sent to Savory asking for pet-sitting help, she was extremely responsive, professional, and friendly. She came over twice to meet our pets and go over their needs and that of the house, and we found her knowledge of animal care and her experience with animals to be very comforting. (This was the first time we had an in-home, overnight pet sitter.) Savory gave us regular updates, photos, and videos of Copper and Milo, chatting with her at least once a day, and she followed all of our instructions 100%. She went above and beyond to bring in packages, change out the litter bags in the robotic smart boxes, and she took our dog Copper to the park for a long walk. In addition, she took it upon herself to wash her sheets and towels, remake the bed, and vacuum/clean up the living room. Her initiative and thoughtfulness were so appreciated. Finally, when our kitten Milo started displaying some symptoms of an upper respiratory illness, she called us right away. We will definitely be using Savory again, and we would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Champ

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Champ is $57 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $70 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,639 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Champ. 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 Champ 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 Champ 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 Champ 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Champ. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
