“I'm so lucky to have found Ami. She was caring, my puppy loves her from the start. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She was also very punctual and sent constant updates and great pictures.”
“Elias did a wonderful job with Birdy. We are so happy to have found Elias. The house was neat as a pin. Birdy was well cared for. She had an immediate connection with Elias.”
“This was our first time working with Stephanie, and it won’t be our last! She communicated well and took great care of our dogs. Left the house super clean, too. We appreciate you, Stephanie!”
“Haley did a great job taking care of our cats while we are away. One our cats got sick while we were away and she provided us with details updates and pictures to make sure we knew what was going on.”
“Ben took great care of our sweet but shy Niela-Phyu, a 75lbs female Great Pyrenees for 10 days at our house. We came back to a happy, obviously often brushed dog in a clean house (which is a challenge with a shedding dog in summer and well watered garden). Notes on walks, events (tick removal ;) - thx) etc on top of many updates awaited us on return. Can only highly recommend Ben and thank you again for an amazing job.”
“Louisa cared for our dog and cat (and house) for 3 days and 2 nights. She was very prompt, communicative, and shared plenty of photos of the pooch and kitty during her stay. Both Kitty K and MollyMo were quite pleased with all of Louisa's pampering and we are quite grateful.”
“What a dear person. Nadine is a natural with knowledge and a love of animals. She showed great judgement, and was kind enough to let me know when our cat was in for the night. She was thoughtful, and clearly is great with animals. Our cat was thoroughly in love.”
“We had a great experience with Lori house sitting our American Bully & Pit mix. Lori asked questions ahead of time, reviewed our instructions, and sent us text and photo updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We really appreciated all of her communication.”
“Yes, yes, Karen took great care of our pet, Cinder, and our home while she was here. Easy communicator, responsible, and kind. I am so glad to have found Karen and look forward to calling on her again!”
“Kendra was a gem to have take care of our pets. She is a kind and caring person who truly understands the animals. She has a background in animal behavior and immediately understood how to give the time needed for our nervous dog to settle down and become comfortable with her presence. Kendra asked numerous questions regarding the pet's needs and personality. While we were away, she sent lots of photos to keep us up to date on the home front.”
“Grace was fantastic! She was warm, bubbly, and instantly connected with our dogs—they were snuggling with her before we even left the garage. She was incredibly flexible and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. She gave us so much peace of mind, especially with our 14-year-old senior dog. We’d love to have her back anytime!”

“Brandy was fantastic! My dog is not easy due to anxiety and fear (she is a rescue). Elly didn't take that long to warm up and once she did they were able to stick to her regular schedule. Brandy was understanding and compassionate to where Elly was emotionally. She took her for great walks and played with her. Brandy sent pictures and lots of updates. Also Brandy was respectful of our house and left it as she found it. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely ask her back. Thank you!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Chesterfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 255 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 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.

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.
