“Emma was a fantastic dog sitter! She was super thoughtful and caring, our dog was in great hands during our weekend away. Communication was a breeze, she always responded promptly and sent daily updates.”
“Perri was great. I had a lot of unknowns with my dog's diet because he became ill right before my trip. Perri worked with us to navigate his eating behaviors and kept me up to date on everything! I would definitely hire Perri again.”
“Kate is the only person I use to take care of my 3 dogs. I think I’ve used her about 6 times now, all for multiple days. They all have different personalities and one is scared of people but loves Kate. She’s responsible, communicates well, and always leaves my house better than when I left!”
“Ava was a lifesaver and a great sitter for my two pups. I had a dog sitter cancel and she stepped in at the last minute. She was very responsive and sent updates often. I will definitely ask her to sit with my pups again.”
“Bennett did a wonderful job watching my two dogs while my family was on vacation. He bonded with both of them and helped them be comfortable while we were gone. I will definitely ask Bennett to watch my dogs again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and what a blessing Cynthia was! I have a rescue dog and she is newer to us and Cynthia not only was great about communicating but also gave great feedback on what we can continue to do with her as a rescue dog to help her adapt. In addition she also took some super cute photos and our dog seem to thrive! We couldn't be happier and hope to use her again.”
“Ashley was and is phenomenal! She took such great care of my cat Kitty and my dog Ziggy. She would send pictures and videos during her entire stay at our house, and we were in constant communication. I felt so comfortable having her take care of them! Ashley went above and beyond during her stay, and I am so grateful! She was so kind and accommodating when our original flight was cancelled, and I asked if she could stay an extra night - without her, I don't know what would have happened! Thank you so much, Ashley, we will definitely be rebooking next time!”
“Thank you so much to Jeremy for making our trip to our daughter's wedding worry free! Our 12 year old dog Ozzie developed anxiety in the last few years which makes trips to the kennel not a possibility any longer. Jeremy was able to stay at our home to house sit & pet sit Ozzie; he helped with all of Ozzie's quirks & we didn't see ANY evidence of anxiety when we got home. I would 100% recommend Jeremy as a sitter & will definitely plan to use him again.”
About: Through my life I have experienced taking care of family pets, from the puppy stage to crossing the rainbow bridge. I often think I love animals more than people. I am currently working from home part time with flexible hours, so I can play with and cuddle your fur babies as much as they want. I can board, pet sit or just walk your dog weekdays or weekends day or night. I have a fenced in yard with one senior dog. I can crate a dog up to 40lbs. We can go for walks if desired.
“I cannot recommend Alex enough! I think when people consider cat care, they think it’s simple. That’s not the case with our two cats. They’re extremely high maintenance. I’m talking four pages worth of notes and will wake you up early for food. Alex dealt with them in strides and even marked up said four page instruction manual. We’ll definitely use Alex again in the future!”
“Tyler did a wonderful job in both taking care of our 5 dogs but also in keeping us informed throughout our trip. We are so happy that we have found a trusted person to work with for all of our trips.”
About: I work Monday through Friday, and I have evenings available every Thursday and Friday (along with every other weekend). How can I help you during this time? I own my home, and I am experienced in keeping cats separate when they’re only visiting. When possible, it would be ideal to keep your pet in your home - but they’re also welcome here!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 15+ years! I grew up with 2 dogs and went on to be a dog mom for 2 of my own. I also supported friends with their dogs on the side and have experience with both small and larger dogs. I am very comfortable with taking care of and treating your dogs like they are my own! My schedule is open and flexible right now, allowing me to be available after 9am on weekdays and available 2 weekends each month. My schedule is open to change for house sitting needs. Safety and trust are my top priority! Your dog will always be supervised and have my full attention. I'm very attentive to your pets feeding schedules, medications, routine activities, and special care instructions. Communication is key and I ask that all your dog’s unique needs are discussed beforehand.
About: I've spent a career in hotel hospality and will bring enthusiasm, patience, professionalism and love to every interaction. I'm considered "the dog whisperer" at the dog park and currently walk a few dogs in my neighborhood for those who simply physically cannot. Acts of service bring me joy, thus pet and pet parents top the list. I'm a full-time father of a thirteen year-old daughter. If I'm not transporting her to and from school, I'm available. My weekends and Holidays are open. I have a field next door and wonderful neighborhoods with walking trails right outside my door. I have a small very sweet husky mix that can be crated if needed
About: What sets me apart is hands-on experience with big, high, energy breeds and young pets. I grew up around Labs, German Shepherds, and Akitas, so I'm comfortable handling large or strong dogs confidently and safely. Whether it's a rowdy young pup or a full house of large breeds, I know how to keep things calm, safe, and fun. Since I work from home, my schedule is pretty flexible day to day, and even more so on weekends. That means I can genuinely be there for your pet, not just check in quickly. When things get busy or chaotic in your world, I'm glad to take pet care off your plate. My approach adapts to whichever service I'm providing, but the goal is always the same: keep your pet's routine as normal as possible.
“Emma did a great job taking care of our little Milo while we were out of town for a few days. He was happy and well cared for when we returned. We will definitely use Emma again to house sit and take care of our dog.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been personally responsible for my own dogs for the past 14 years. I currently have three dogs at home and have experience with everything from small breeds to large dogs. I also have extensive experience caring for dogs with medical and senior-care needs. One of my dogs developed Addison’s disease at a young age and later battled cancer, so I became very comfortable with administering injections and medications, managing chronic health needs, and caring for a dog through chemotherapy, arthritis and mobility changes. As he got older, we adapted his routine so he could still enjoy walks and activities safely and comfortably. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, especially when they have special needs. I’m patient, attentive and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible, whether that means a morning walk, some midday company, or extra love while you’re away. I keep my Rover calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available! I know how much trust it takes to leave a member of your family and your home in someone else’s care. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, your instructions, and any house rules closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to body language and individual needs and will never force an interaction or put your pet in an uncomfortable situation. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and am always happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your family member is in good hands.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outside, or just relaxing and keeping company, I’m happy to match their needs and routine. I can also run with your dog if they are full of energy! I am a chiropractic student at Logan University, so spending time with animals is the perfect balance to my busy schedule. I have a dog named Scotch who lives at my home in Ohio. Since I don’t have a dog here, I appreciate the opportunity to walk and care for local pets! I just started on Rover, but I have lots of experience walking dogs through the Wag app and caring for family and friends’ pets while they’re away. At the moment, I’m unable to board pets due to my roommate’s dog, but I am available Thursday mornings from 6-9am and in the afternoon/evenings for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I am also free all day most weekends and I also do overnight stays for weekends. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I would closely follow your pet’s routine and schedule to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, while giving them plenty of attention, care, and exercise!
“Great sitter. Rosemary sent photos and communicated frequently. Most importantly, she seemed to truly enjoy working with Sydney. Our dog can be a little difficult sometimes and we often come back to a dehydrated, depressed pup. She seemed to be in great spirits and that’s a credit to Rosemary. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and love everything about them! I’ve cared for kittens, adults, seniors, and multiple pet households. I have experience with post-op care, cat introductions, and indoor/outdoor cats. Housesitting - I can’t be there 24 hours a day because I have my own pets, but we can discuss how much I need to be away. I work full time from home, mostly available evenings and weekends, daytime if my schedule allows. I’m a night owl so late night visits are okay! I go at your pet’s pace and provide a safe, loving environment so they gain my trust. I go by their usual routine/ habits as not disrupt their routine.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Clarkson Valley is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkson Valley
Kelsey is fabulous! She watched my 4 pups and my son’s pup for a week. She sent pictures and updates. We were in communication throughout our trip. We came home and the pups were happy, the house was clean and laundry done! It was so wonderful to come in and not have to instantly start cleaning! She loves the dogs and I will definitely book with her again whenever she is available. Cannot recommend her enough!!
Alexis was amazing! Lots of updates (as requested!), left our pup happy and our home just as left it. She watered our plants, gave our dog medication as directed and lots of attention! Maverick had a health issue come up the morning we were set to leave and Alexis immediately took notes and was happy to administer medication. We were able to take our trip with minimal worries about our fur baby!
Lindsey did a great job sitting for my 2 dogs. She even took them for walks together which I have never done since I have a large fenced in yard. I believe they both warmed up to her and loved the walks. She was always quick to respond and kept me informed on how things were going. I came home to happy dogs which is always a good sign. I would highly recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
This is the second time Tarah has taken care of our pups and our house, and once again she did an outstanding job. This visit was a little more challenging because we left her with our 10-month-old, 100+ lb puppy who is recovering from elbow surgery. He required extra attention, careful activity restrictions, and medication, and we felt completely confident knowing he was in her care. Tarah kept us updated with messages and photos, and it was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. She also took great care of our home, leaving everything just as we left it. It's such a relief to have someone we trust with both our dogs and our house. We wouldn't hesitate to book Tarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and responsible pet sitter.
Adam was so enthusiastic about meeting my pets- it’s nice to find someone who isn’t apprehensive about my large, boisterous German Shepherd. I loved that he was able to spend most of his time in the home while sitting rather than just dropping in a few times. He was also super flexible when a snowstorm made our travel plans change. Thanks, Adam!
Anna went above and beyond taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation! She asked very thorough questions ahead of our trip, which showed she cared about taking care of our dogs and our home to our satisfaction. She sent lots of pictures while we were away which was comforting, and left our home clean and organized. We were very happy with her service and comfortable having her in our home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Clarkson Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Clarkson Valley on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,599 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clarkson Valley. 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 Clarkson Valley 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 Clarkson Valley 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 Clarkson Valley 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 Clarkson Valley. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
