“Emma is amazing! We got lots of updates and pics while we were gone. It’s obvious that she enjoys our dogs as much as they enjoy her! I actually think my dogs were mildly disappointed when she left for the morning and WE showed up a couple of hours later instead of her :)”
“Jenna was great. Super communicative, very attentive during the meet and greet, and sent regular updates for both my pets. I would definitely have her house sit again!”
“Virginia was awesome and took care of our pups while we were away for a week. House was left very clean and she even took care of some of my mail that was delivered throughout the week. She asked appropriate questions and double checked anything that was not clear with our instructions. She was very knowledgeable and you can tell she is passionate about her job while pet sitting. I can't think of anything that would have made this a better experience. I will certainly use her again in the future.”
“Stephanie did such a great job with my 2 active dogs, and kept me informed regularly with updates, photos, videos and more. I’m grateful for her attention to their care, exercise, meal routine - she did it all. And she left my home clean and organized as well! I’ll be checking her availability for all my upcoming needs for in-home dogsitting 🙏”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Laurie! She stayed in our home for 10 nights while we were away, taking care of our beloved Millie, and we could not have asked for better care, Every single day, Laurie sent us a detailed email with pictures and updates about Millie's day. It was so clear from her messages and photos that Millie wasn't simply being looked after-she was truly being loved and cared for. Seeing how happy and comfortable Millie was gave us such incredible peace of mind. Knowing that our girl was in such loving, capable hands allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our trip without worrying about her. Laurie was wonderful in every way, and we would not hesitate to have her care for Millie again. We highly recommend Laurie to anyone looking for someone they can trust completely with their beloved pet and their home.”
“Alyssa did a great job with our anxious doggies! They seemed very content when we came back from our trip which is a testament to how well she did with them and how comfortable they were with her. We will definitely look to her in the future!”
“Gabriela was wonderful! Her response time was very prompt from the beginning. She sent many pictures while we were away and followed instructions for our pup’s care to a T! We also came home to find the house just the way we left it. Would definitely recommend her and reach out again if we are ever in need of care for our sweet Mabel!”
“Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our fur babies received from Jenna! She stayed overnight and took wonderful care of them, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pets were loved, comfortable, and well cared for. We also came home to a spotless house, which was such a nice bonus. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet sitter. We already have her booked again for our next trip!”
“Jennifer goes above and beyond, helps with watering the plants as well as making our little lady feel loved and safe while we are away. It’s hard being away from our dog while we are traveling but we know Ilsa is having a great time without us because she’s with Jennifer.”
“Kelli provided exceptional care for my Chihuahua, Hazel Fay, and my cat, Sharona Joy, while I was away. From the moment I left, I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. She sent me daily photos and even a sweet video of Sharona Joy happily playing with her favorite fish toy, which made my day every time. Kelli also took excellent care of my garden by watering my plants. My pets eat a raw diet, which requires extra preparation and cleanup at every meal, and Kelli handled it with great attention to detail. She truly went above and beyond by washing my bed sheets and towels before I returned home, making it even easier to settle back in after my vacation. What impressed me most was Kelli's incredible work ethic and the genuine love and compassion she showed my animals. She was able to spend all day with them, giving them the attention, companionship, and care they needed. Knowing Hazel Fay and Sharona Joy were so well cared for allowed me to completely relax and enjoy my vacation. I wholeheartedly recommend Kelli to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and truly caring pet sitter. She exceeded every expectation, and I will gladly hire her again.”
“Erin checks on my dogs during the week while I’m at work and has spent the weekend at my house while I was out of town. I trust her completely with my dogs and my home. She’s easy to communicate and work with.”

I’ll always communicate clearly to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities.

I treat every pet as if they were my own and always keep their well-being first.
“Erika was so amazing. Because we are paranoid parents of a rescue pitty, finding someone to take care of our baby for two weeks was a very scary thing to do. Erika reassured us that all would be well while we were gone, and sure enough, everything at home was perfect. My husband and I were able to enjoy ourselves during our travels, stress free, knowing Sheeba was taken care of and loved every day by Erika. Erika was also so wonderful with keeping in touch, communicated with us every day, sending us pictures and updates; and Sheeba seemed so happy and well taken care of; she did not even have as much anxiety when we returned home like we thought she would. Thank you so much Erika for everything; we will definitely keep you for the future!!”
“Incredible service and excellent communicator! Very prompt and took care of our doggos wonderfully! I’ve already rebooked her for multiple occasions! I highly recommend her to everyone!!”
“Hailey was amazing! We were gone for a full week and she took such great care of our girls. One of our pups had some stomach issues. She took time to pick her up from the vet, get additional meds and help our sweet girl. We were so lucky to have her!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Claycomo is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Claycomo
Brooklyn came right in and took charge, and Tufa took to her very quickly. She didn't get a ton of acclimation time or instruction due to short notice for care, and my crazy busy day. I was impressed with how at ease she was with the situation and that made it so much easier for me. Brooklyn definitely cares about providing top notch care for your pets, I highly recommend her and hope to have her care for Tufa again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Claycomo on Rover is $37.45 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 1,531 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Claycomo. 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 Claycomo 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 Claycomo 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 Claycomo 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 Claycomo. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
