“Madeline was a great pet sitter for my cat while I was away for a long weekend. She was very communicative and had detailed daily updates. You can tell she really cares about the animals she takes care of, I would happily book her again!”

About: I have over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. I was a devoted owner of my Chihuahua for 13 years, which gave me extensive experience with long-term, attentive care and the needs of an aging dog. I also have experience with neonatal puppies. I helped care for a litter of 8 puppies from birth through adoption, assisting with feeding, handling, cleaning, monitoring their development, and providing consistent care until they went to their forever homes. I continue to help care for young puppies belonging to family and friends, giving me experience with puppy routines, supervision, and the extra patience they require. Additionally, I gained professional experience working at a doggy daycare during college, where I helped care for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable following each pet’s individual routine. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention I would want for my own dog. My Availability 🐾 I’m unavailable Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 AM–4 PM, but I’m available after 4 PM on those days. I’m fully available Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with flexible availability throughout the day. Have a specific schedule in mind? Send me a booking request or message me with your dates and your pet’s routine, and I’ll be happy to see how I can help! 🐾 Every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I like to learn what works best for them before each booking. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, medication if needed and within my comfort level, and plenty of attention and companionship. For drop-in visits and walks, I can follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. For overnight care, I do not stay overnight in clients’ homes. I’m happy to discuss extended drop-in visits or multiple visits throughout the day and evening instead. For boarding or overnight stays in my home, arrangements need to be discussed and approved in advance since I live with my family. I’ll make sure the setup is a good fit for both your pet and my household before confirming the booking. My goal is to make the experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

“Kate is amazing! She took great care of our Fiona, sent many updates with pictures and took wonderful care of our home. We highly recommend Kate for your dog/house sitting needs!!”

“Megan was exceptionally patient and adaptable while we had a family wedding, with so many changes to the schedule. She responded quickly and took expert care of our very beloved fur babies. I highly recommend Megan and will absolutely trust her to take care of them again. It’s amazing to not have to worry at all😊”


About: I have owned cats all my life and currently own one cat and one dog, both of whom are rescues. My dog did not have the best start to life and as a result continues to require consistent training and guidance to live a stress-reduced life. As I have helped my reactive dog get adjusted to life in a loving home, I've learned that I have a passion for interacting with dogs, or any animal, of all shapes, sizes, and breeds without discrimination. I value creating a trusting bond each animal I interact with and each pet owner that I meet. I recognize that each animal I meet may require specific considerations while providing services and am comfortable with most temperaments that I come across (like I said, having a reactive dog myself has taught me lots of valuable lessons). I have provided drop in care for several family members' animals including both cats and dogs of all sizes. I have volunteered with animal shelters by taking dogs for walks and providing play time. Unfortunately, my neighborhood has several dogs who have gotten out of their yards, however on multiple occasions I have safely leashed the animals and worked with various vet offices to get them returned to their owners. I value direct communication and constructive feedback from pet owners in order to help me provide the type of care that your animal deserves. Whether you need help while you're at work or need someone to walk the dog while you take care of things at home, my schedule can be flexible. I currently work from home, so please message me the times you require services to ensure availability. I care for pets in my own home with love first and foremost but also with clear expectations of what behavior is acceptable. I regularly provide playtime for both of my animals and do obedience training with my dog daily (I am not a certified dog trainer, however have picked up lots of knowledge and skills working with the reputable trainers in my area for my dog).
“Elizabeth was super helpful and very flexible with my crazy schedule. She took my dogs to the park and gave them lots of love and sent great pictures of them while I was away. I didn’t have to worry about a thing the entire trip. She even stayed late when my flight was delayed and left the house clean and tidy. Can’t wait to use her services again!”

About: I’ve watched all sorts of animals from rats and hamsters to puppies and adult dogs. I love animals and I want to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I have a partially blind fully deaf dog who was born like that so I absolutely have experience with disabilities and special needs. I can handle all sorts of pets i’m not scared of any animals and I believe that every animal is someone’s whole life and you need to make sure they’re treated like royalty. I also own a bunny and a kitten so whatever animal you have i’ll make sure to give them the best care possible. I am a college student and currently have classes 3 days a week but i’m hoping to move that to one or two days for future semesters. I cannot have pets in my home as i have 3 animals already. In your home I would want them to be leashed or have a fence of some sort to go outside, on walks etc. I am comfortable walking large dogs as long as they do not have a record of trying to get away. If you have any questions or concerns about specific things please feel free to ask!
“Courtney was incredible! She babysat my dog maple for a week in my home and my dog loved being with her, and playing with Courtney! I highly recommend her and will definitely have her babysit maple again ??❤️”

In both settings, I prioritize safety, love, and clear communication with the owner for a seamless experience.
“Incredible! Brandon stayed at our home for 3-weeks with our dog during an international trip. His compassionate care was a huge peace of mind. He managed medication and even young dog accidents! He sent many photos and videos, and even took her on extra walks! We couldn’t recommend Brandon more highly!”

“Kelsey took great care of our 2 boys and then were very happy staying in the house and having her there with them. She respected our property and cleaned up dishes, towels, and sheets before she left. The daily updates allowed us to feel comfortable that everything was going well and the boys were happy. Will definitely utilize Kelsey's services again!!”

“Dominic is amazing! He stayed with our pups over Christmas while we were away visiting family. He’s super responsive and communicative and took great care of them and our home! We’ll be booking with him again!”

“My boy is a high energy Vizsla & I’ve never left him with someone new so was a little nervous to leave him. Sarah exceeded my expectation! Had last minute meds she had to give him & last minute fence getting put up & she handled it all perfect. Pretty sure Boone likes her more than me now!”

About: I have been working with people's furry family members on and off for about 10 years now. Aside from working in doggy daycare and boarding, I've cared for animals of friends and family throughout my life. Keeping animals well taken care of and well enriched is my specialty. I am also a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College. I'll be available for sitting on weekends and eventually full-time! Walks and training sessions can always be incorporated into my week. Please reach out so we can make your schedule work! I have pet sat and worked in boarding/daycare facilities for years. There is almost no situation I couldn't accommodate. Whether it be special preferences you might have for your furry buddy or necessities like administering important medication, there is almost no situation I wouldn't be happy to oblige when taking care of your pet.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chesterfield
Madeline took great care of our two dogs while we were away. She exercised them each day and gave them lots of cuddles!! We got regular updates with photos that allowed us to feel comfortable while away and she cared for the house by doing the sheets and towels before leaving. Would definitely recommend her to all our friends with pets.

Gabby house sat for us in October for 3 nights and 4 days, taking care of our dog Hayden. She did a fantastic job, kept us informed every day, and sent us pictures of our dog. She also took great care of our house. We felt very comfortable with the service Gabby provided, and, as frequent travelers, are excited to work with her again!

Kelsey took great care of our 2 boys and then were very happy staying in the house and having her there with them. She respected our property and cleaned up dishes, towels, and sheets before she left. The daily updates allowed us to feel comfortable that everything was going well and the boys were happy. Will definitely utilize Kelsey's services again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Chesterfield is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $92 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 October 2026, there are 1,508 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chesterfield. 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 Chesterfield 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 Chesterfield 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 Chesterfield 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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.
