Liliana was great! She was very communicative and let me know what was going on. She gave me updates of our dogs along with photos. The house was in the same condition as we left it and I appreciate how caring and kind she was with our dogs. Her Osito came over to visit and he was very well behaved and got along great with our three dogs. I am happy she was able to watch our dogs while we were out of town.

Abby is a wonderful dog sitter! We could not have gotten luckier with finding her to care for our dog! Throughout the last year she’s watched our dog multiple times and is always very communicative, flexible when we’ve needed it, follows all directions, and clearly really cares about our dog. Would truly recommend Abby to absolutely anyone that needs a dog sitter! Thank you Abby!

Sarah was wonderful to work with. She took the time to come out and meet us and our 2 puppies before sitting for us which was comforting. Once she did, she did an amazing job and took excellent care of our pups. She sent pictures and answered any texts while we were away.

Mia did a great job watching over our dog, cat and home. We were in a pinch to find a sitter and she was reliable and trustworthy! She left our home spotless and sent us a ton of photos with our pets. They really took to her and we could tell they felt comfortable and loved while we were away. I would definitely book Mia again for our next trip, we are so happy we found her!

About: My family has had all types of pets over the years, from chameleon to Great Dane! I have experience giving medication to animals as well! I love all animals, especially cats and big dogs; your pets are in good hands! I work from home so I am available all hours and all days of the week! I have a second job where I work max 5 hours Thursday and Friday nights. I would prefer not to bring your pets to my house as my cats can be skittish around other animals, but I am more than happy to come to yours!

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Before returning to college, I attended PIMA Medical Institute in Denver and worked as a veterinary technician in both Colorado and Nebraska. I worked alongside multiple veterinarians at Banfield Pet Hospital throughout the Denver metro area and later at a rural veterinary practice and boarding facility in Mitchell, Nebraska. My veterinary experience gave me the opportunity to care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable administering oral, topical, eye, ear, and injectable medications (including insulin when prescribed), caring for senior pets, and following detailed care instructions for pets with medical needs. One of my favorite parts of working in the boarding facility was helping nervous pets feel comfortable. Being away from home can be stressful, and I loved taking the time to earn their trust—whether that meant sitting quietly with them, giving them extra affection, or even making up a silly little jingle while we spent time together. Watching a scared pet relax and begin to feel safe was one of the most rewarding parts of my job. Today, I'm a nontraditional college student and work part-time on campus, which allows me to offer dependable afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I provide regular updates, photos, and complimentary meet-and-greets so you can feel confident your pet is in caring, capable hands. Every pet deserves to feel safe, understood, and loved—even when their favorite people are away. I work part-time on my college campus during weekday mornings, so I'm generally available for afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. In the right circumstances I can squeeze in some morning visits. I enjoy building relationships with both pets and their owners, and I strive to provide dependable, consistent care. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk, medication, or a little extra company while you're away, I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. With my background as a veterinary technician, I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications, and recognizing changes in behavior or health that may need attention. I treat every home with respect and do my best to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. You'll receive regular updates and photos, and I'll always communicate if I have any questions or concerns. I believe trust is earned through reliability, compassion, and treating every pet as the unique individual they are.

Nathan took extra care with our very senior pup (14+, fragile condition) and they got along well during his overnight stay at our home. He’s very conscientious, read our instructions in advance and asked good questions to learn more or get clarity. We came home to a calm pup and tidy home. We hope we have Coco long enough to have Nathan sit with her again!

About: Animals have always been an important part of our lives. We raised one of our dogs from an 8 week old puppy and adopted another from a shelter when she was estimated to be 1 to 2 years old, she was with us for over 17 years! We cared for them through every stage of life. That experience taught us the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and paying attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll care for your furry family member with the same love and attention we gave our own. I currently work part time, which gives me flexibility for dog walks, drop in visits, and house sitting. My schedule varies, but I’m available many afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m active and genuinely enjoy long walks, hikes, and spending time outdoors, so whether your dog prefers a leisurely stroll or plenty of exercise, I’ll make sure they get the attention and activity they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I cared for my own two dogs for many years, raising one from a puppy and adopting the other from a shelter. I have experience caring for dogs through every stage of life, including senior dogs with changing needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure, provide regular updates and photos, and treat your pet with the same patience, love, and respect I gave my own dogs. Every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have two wheaten terriers and know all that is involved when it comes to walks, food, play, etc. I’ve watched my neighbors’ dogs overnight, trained my own, and love meeting new ones as well! I currently am between classes, so I am quite open to your needs: weekends, early mornings, late nights, you name it! The more time with your pets the merrier. Making sure dogs are fed, walked, and played with is top priority—something that comes naturally to me. I occasionally wash dogs if they are considered to be too dirty.

About: I am an experienced Veterinary Technician that has worked in the industry for 10 years. I had my own pet sitting and dog walking business in Texas for 6 years before moving to the great state of Nebraska. If selected to take care of your fur babies, I will provide detailed accounts of the interaction that I will have with your pets. I am able to give medications and provide basic medical care. You will be alerted when I notice any sign of illness. You will also be notified when they are being cute. My goal is to provide the best care possible while you are away. I will play with them, love them, and treat them as if they were my own. Taking care of animals is my calling and my passion. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur babies. I am a stay at home mom and have a flexible schedule to work with your ongoing pet sitting needs. Just let me know what you need! When I am a pet sitter I treat your animals as if they are my own. I pay attention to the details that your pet communicates. I typically can detect early illness and recommend proper intervention to keep your pet healthy. If they are at my house, they are in a fenced backyard and monitored while my dogs play with your dog. I provide plenty of water to prevent dehydration and a nap break to make sure they rest. Be prepared! Your pup will be tired when they return home.

So happy we booked with Cameron! We experienced a last minute cancellation 2 days prior to going on our trip. We were so relieved that Cameron was available and it relieved so much stress! One of our dogs had to have ointment applied to his paws and he made sure he got that on schedule. I’m very detail oriented and left a long list of things of the dogs behaviors, how they’re fed & what they may like to do and Cameron read over everything to make sure he cared for our pups the way we would, and he sent the best photos and videos! It’s been a much more relaxing trip thanks to him, we didn’t worry about if they were happy, they had so much fun with Cameron!

We have 3 spoiled pups and Hannah took extra care of them all in our home. They don’t normally get comfortable or even play the first time someone would watch them, but they did! She made sure all of our requests were met. Walked all 3 at the same time, fed them, played, spent time outside when it was nice out and communicated with us plenty. Thank you, Hannah!

Jennifer was amazing with our 3 set-in-their-ways pooches. She got them walked and fed as instructed and went above the bar to snuggle them and do extra chores around the house while we were gone all week! We had no worries as she sent check-in messages and photos to let us know everything was going well. Would highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cheney

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Cheney on Rover is $29.96 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 253 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cheney. 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 Cheney 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 Cheney 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 Cheney 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 Cheney. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
