“Ella was the sweetest & did such a great job watching my pets! I have a little mini dog & a big cat, & I was out of town for a wedding event, so it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She was great about sending me updates without me even having to ask, & she sent me SO many cute pictures and videos of them 🥹 It honestly made being away so much easier! She was super sweet, reliable, & I could tell she genuinely cared about my pets. I would 100% recommend Ella & would absolutely use her again! 🐶🐱💕 Thanks Ella!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Paige is the first sitter we hire through this app. And the experience couldn’t have been easier. She came to the house to meet Toby a few days before the actual sitting and it was great, in general he is afraid of other people and has Separation Anxiety, but with her he was all happy and playful. On the sitting day she arrived on time, and took the time to go over the care details for Toby and he continued his regular routine. Additionally, she spent time playing with him throughout the day. Toby really liked spending time with her and it was like we had never left the house. She is a great sitter and we will be hiring her again.”

“Vanessa, thank you so, so much for taking great care of our pup. This was our first long time away from him and we’re as happy to see him as he is to see us. Thanks for all the great communication along the way.”

“Hadija took excellent care of our dog and cats while we were away. She provided regular updates and photos and was even able to administer meds that I know are tricky. So glad to have found a wonderfully reliable petsitter! Thank you Hadija!”

“I highly recommend Micaela 😊 she took excellent care of my dog Zues while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. she was very reliable, responsible, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout my trip. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable when I returned home. It was clear that Micaela treated my pet with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. I would not hesitate to use this services again and would gladly recommend Micaela to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you so much for your services. 😊😊😊”

“Nicholas was fantastic! We had our very first meeting a few days before he stayed overnight at my home with my two dogs and two cats for three days and two nights. I was uncomfortable with the idea of having a stranger stay in my home, but Nicholas immediately made me feel at ease upon meeting him. He asked all the right questions and seemed eager to help us. While away, he understood my near panic with leaving my baby Bandit with a stranger, and was caring enough to send me pics of Bandit in bed with him which made me so happy. He responded to every message very quickly. His price AND demeanor beat all else!! I look forward to having you over again soon, Nicholas! Thank you for helping us in a last minute bind!”

About: I grew up loving animals and it has always stuck with me. My family and friends have trusted me with their fur babies for years now and I'm happy to be able to expand on that. I have my own goldendoodle and it was the best decision I ever made! I look forward to meeting your furry family members :) I currently work from home which makes my schedule very flexible. I am avialable just about any day, any time. I'm always willing to work with my clients. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pup to keep yours company if that's what you'd like! Or, I'm happy to spend one-on-one time. Each dog has different needs!
“As a new puppy parent I was very concerned about leaving our little Cavapoo over night but Heather was a wonderful dog-sitter and once I met her I was so relieved knowing our puppy would be in capable hands. She made sure he was taken out to go potty, she played with him and she even managed to give him his pill which I couldn’t get him to take.”


“I was so fortunate to have found Calli when I needed someone to be gentle and affectionate toward my senior dog and approachable for my younger dog. She tended to Foxy with so much care because of her recent injury and Singha warmed up to her too which surprised me. I will certainly have Cali be their caregiver again. I recommend Calli as a five star sitter.”

About: I have always had a passion for dogs. I have been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I truly love every minute of it! I enjoy giving each dog individual attention and care, unlike what they may receive in a large kennel. I love spending time with dogs, taking them for walks, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away I’m a stay at home fur mom and have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I can easily incorporate more dogs into my feeding and walking routines throughout the days. I have had dogs my whole life and truly enjoy pet care and helping keep pets on their schedule. I also think it is important to have patience with dogs.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!
“Ana went above and beyond. She was in regular contact with me and put in extra effort to connect with my very shy boy kitty. She even left us an adorable hand made sign welcoming us home. We so appreciate her care and attention and highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m Jackie, a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for dogs, cats, and senior pets. I grew up with dogs and have always been comfortable around them, their energy, and their routines. As an adult, I’m a proud cat mom, which has given me a deep appreciation for feline personalities, boundaries, and the quieter kind of companionship. I understand that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and trusting someone with them is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, and very detail-oriented when it comes to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and comfort needs. I work from home, which allows me to be present, responsive, and flexible with schedules. I especially enjoy providing calm, reassuring care for pets who may be shy, anxious, older, or just prefer a quieter environment. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, or simply having someone nearby for comfort and companionship, my goal is always to help them feel safe, loved, and relaxed while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to be present, responsive, and attentive to pets throughout the day. I care for pets by closely following their established routines so they feel safe and comfortable in a familiar environment. I take time to understand each pet’s feeding schedule, walking needs, litter or potty routines, medications, and any special instructions provided by their owner. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and attentive, making sure pets receive plenty of companionship, enrichment, and reassurance while maintaining their normal daily rhythm. I prioritize calm, positive interactions and never rush care. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a quiet, low-stress environment with close supervision, lots of attention, and regular updates to owners. I’m especially mindful of safety, comfort, and cleanliness. I communicate regularly with photos and updates so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away, and I always adjust my care style based on each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs.
“Another carefree vacation in the books thanks to the amazing Melissa. We knew our boy was in great hands and got fun pics and video to keep us up to date on how his day was going. We can’t recommend Melissa enough. Whether it’s a short trip or long vacation, you can’t go wrong with booking Melissa. Thanks for taking such great care of our Kody.”

“If you are looking for a trustworthy and exceptional pet sitter, hire Nicole! She stayed at our house for 12 days to look after our dog, and she did an absolutely phenomenal job. Leaving your pet can be stressful, but Nicole constantly updated us with multiple photographs throughout the day, which gave us complete peace of mind about our dog's well-being. Our baby was incredibly safe, happy, and content when we returned. Not only did she provide top-tier care for our dog, but she also left our entire home spotless. Nicole is professional, responsible, and a true gem. We will definitely be booking her again!”


About: I have experience with dogs, and cats of all ages, as well as aiding in medication administration as needed. I have had pets as long as I can remember! I am flexible to whatever dates are needed! I do work until about 4:30 then I can assist as needed in your pet care needs. I will not be able to take your pets to my house, however I can walk them in parks and bring them in my car if needed!
About: Book with me. To ensure you have the best sitter for your pup, I provide a safe, warming, calm, fun environment when booked for an overnight stay at my place. Constant walks throughout the day. Always keep about two bowls of water around the house and provide daily morning exercise routines (my morning walks/jogs). I do recommend clients/parents to provide food and treats for dogs and keep me aware of any allergies or habits the pup has. I have no problem buying treats or toys as long as it’s okay with the client/parent. This also goes for traveling to clients/parents homes.

About: What sets me apart is the amount of hands-on experience I’ve had caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. For four years, I cared for a senior dog until she peacefully passed away, which taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of providing specialized care. I’ve also cared for newborn puppies, assisted during a dog’s labor and birth, and helped families raise young puppies who needed constant attention and routine. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with a wide range of temperaments. Some have needed three walks a day and lots of playtime, while others preferred quiet companionship and their personal space. I’ve also worked with dogs that required extra patience due to anxiety, age, or unique behavioral needs. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality so I can provide the care that’s best for them. I’m experienced with different feeding schedules and specialized diets, and I understand how important it is to stick to a pet’s normal routine. I believe consistent communication is just as important as great pet care, so I make sure owners receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication while they’re away. I previously provided dog boarding in my own home, but now that I have two dogs of my own, I primarily offer care in my clients’ homes. This allows your pet to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving attentive, personalized care with minimal disruption to their routine. My goal is simple: to treat every dog as if they were my own and give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring, experienced, and reliable hands. I currently work part-time and have lots of flexibility in my schedule and can fit petsitting and pet care very well in my schedule. I currently do not offer pet care in my home for the safety of your pet and mine, but I will ensure safety at all times taking care of your pet by following any instructions left and being aware of the environment and home I am providing the service in.

Louise was GREAT with our dog and cat. Our dog can be a little shy and nervous around new people and Louise made sure she was comfortable and on her schedule. We got married the night Louise stayed over and we were over joyed that she sent us picture updates throughout the day and morning of. We couldn't be more thankful!

Ella was the sweetest & did such a great job watching my pets! I have a little mini dog & a big cat, & I was out of town for a wedding event, so it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She was great about sending me updates without me even having to ask, & she sent me SO many cute pictures and videos of them 🥹 It honestly made being away so much easier! She was super sweet, reliable, & I could tell she genuinely cared about my pets. I would 100% recommend Ella & would absolutely use her again! 🐶🐱💕 Thanks Ella!

Alyssa did a wonderful job of watching my 2 dogs and 2 cats for the 3 weeks I was away. She is very responsible and takes full accountability for the care of the animals and home. I appreciated the multiple pictures and check-ins. You could tell through the pictures the animals really took to her. She also took good care of my house by keeping it clean, plants watered and mail taken in.
So thankful to have Vanessa watch our dog. She was able to pivot with a last minute logistics issue. She provided many updates and photos throughout the day. I love that my dog was comfortable enough to keep his normal eating and napping schedule, so I know he enjoyed his time!

Cordelia was incredibly communicative & sent photos of my sweet dog multiple times a day! She followed all of my given instructions and made sure to get in a couple of longer walks a day! My dog seemed very happy and comfortable with her. Thank you so much Cordelia!

Nicole was absolutely exceptional. From start to finish, she was professional, communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. It was immediately clear how much she truly loves animals, and our dog absolutely adored her. While we were away, Nicole kept us updated regularly and gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our dog was in such great hands. She treated him like her own, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. Finding someone you fully trust with your dog is not easy, and Nicole exceeded every expectation we had. She is dependable, thoughtful, kind, and clearly takes great pride in the care she provides. We would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely wonderful sitter. Thank you again, Nicole, for taking such amazing care of our dog. We are incredibly grateful and look forward to booking with you again soon.

We recently had Nora stay over for our 2 dogs, Honey and Louise. She came and met us and the dogs beforehand. What a sweet young lady and our dogs warmed up to her immediately. She sent updates and pictures throughout. Honey is a nervous nelly and I was so relieved to see her sleeping on the bed with Nora, quite content. She left the place spotless. I can't say enough good things about Nora. She is the best!! <3

Brianna was amazing! I was in a really tight spot looking for someone to watch Ace right before Thanksgiving, and she responded so quickly. We did a meet and greet and Ace loved her right away. I ended up extending the stay, and when I got back from vacation my home was exactly the way I left it. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!

Lauren was absolutely incredible while staying at our home for a few days to care for our two dogs and cat. One of our pups required daily medication, and she handled it with total professionalism and care. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and it was clear our pets were happy, relaxed, and well-loved the entire time. We came home to a spotless house and three content animals who clearly adored her. It’s such a relief knowing we can trust someone so responsible, kind, and attentive with our pets and home. We couldn’t recommend Lauren more highly. She’s a gem, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Cliffwood is $76 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $89 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 17,077 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cliffwood. 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 Cliffwood 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 Cliffwood 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 Cliffwood 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.
