“Excellent job, my dogs love him so much. He took time to check in on them more than needed because they get into stuff. The house was in mint condition. I already booked him again!”
“Jasper, Ilsa, and Vader apparently had a great time with Lainya! Very relaxed. House was in wonderful shape--I will definitely book her for future travel plans!”
“It was such a pleasure to work with Karen! She is professional, reliable, kept me updated, and responded quickly to all my texts (I really miss my dog when I’m gone). She left my home in perfect condition. I look forward to having her stay in my home again soon.”
“Ariel is thoughtful, she took the time to ask great questions about Molly to understand her care needs. I was able to feel safe leaving Molly in good hands. I trusted Ariel in my home. She played with Molly and made sure she was entertained. Ariel was awesome to send me picture updates to let me know things were going well. Grateful!”
“Annabelle provided wonderful care as usual. She spent a ton of time with our cat, Ekko, while we were gone and tried to keep her as happy as possible even though Ekko wasn’t feeling great.”
“Caitlin took wonderful care of our dog in our home while we were away. We received updates and photos and came home to a happy pup and clean house! We would recommend her for any dog sitting needs.”
“Eleshia was great! She stayed three nights with our cat and dog who do not get along with one another. She spent time with each pet and made sure they were comforted and well cared for. She left our home just as clean as it was when we left. We will definitely use her again.”
“Trinity did a great job taking care of our dog and was so respectful of our home! She sent many pictures and updates, and genuinely enjoyed our dog, which every pet owner hopes for!”
“Our experience with Amelia was excellent. She took such great care of our pets and paid attention to every detail. She was very responsive and sent us plenty of pictures of our pets. She took great care of our house too. I would definitely recommend Amelia as a pet sitter/house sitter and will rebook with her again.”
“Lori took care of quite a full house for us — our St. Bernard, our French Bulldog, our barn cat, our chickens, and even our koi and goldfish and the pond — and it was a great first experience. She sent constant updates and photos throughout the stay, so we always knew exactly how everyone and everything was doing, which was especially reassuring given how much she had to juggle. She was easygoing, clearly comfortable with animals of all kinds, and handled the dogs and koi pond maintenance without a hitch. We'd happily recommend her to anyone with a busy household of pets and property, and we'll definitely be booking her again.”
About: I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, pigs, goats and horses! I worked with a breeder so I have lots of experience with puppies and mothers. Most dogs I've spent time with are high energy dogs like Australian shepard's but I've also spent time with low energy like Saint Bernards. I am a travel occupational therapist currently taking a break from moving around. Currently not working so I am very free! I love morning walks. I live in a camper but your fur baby will not be home alone! Our campground has a fenced dog run and I would love to visit some parks if comfortable. I can visit your pet within their home at any time of day.
About: I stand out by giving pets real attention and care, not just basic sitting. I’m reliable, calm, and good with different personalities, and I make sure every pet feels safe and loved. I’m currently not working another job, so I have open availability and can dedicate my time to providing reliable and consistent care for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I always follow instructions closely, keep a calm and clean environment, and make sure pets are secure and well cared for at all times.
“Hope was a date night saver for us! She took care of Chani for a few hours, who normally express a bit of separation anxiety with us gone, but with Hope she felt totally safe and relaxed at home! Easy to book with, super fast communication, kind, caring, ideal Rover experience! Thanks again, Hope!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with horses, dogs, cats and a menagerie of smaller critters such as reptiles, hamsters, mice, rats, guineapigs, chinchillas, fish & more. The majority of the past 35 years I've been raising, chickens, ducks, turkeys, quail, rabbits, goats as well as dogs, cats & other small critters. I had the pleasure of many furry companions who have enriched my life, and I was able to see many of them live very long lives. I am a certified pet sitter, holistic animal behaviorist, certified in CPR/First Aide, and I have also taken several animal herbal, training & communication classes. I have been taking care of friends & family's animals for over 40 years and now I want to extend a helping hand to those on Rover who love their furry companions as much as I love mine. I teach at various venues such as Mesa County Libraries, CMU TECH, Home School Groups & The Bookcliffs Art Center. I can be very busy and then free for weeks just depends on the scheduling. Usually, my classes are 2 to 4 hours with additional drive time and the latest evening class ends at 8pm. So, I can easily do home visits twice a day and overnights are not a problem. I will be taking care of your furry friend in your home. Each home is differnt & each furry friend is different so, I have a questionnaire I ask all of my clients to fill out. The questionnaire askes for details such as what your pets' daily activities, food requirements, meds & administration methods if applicable, likes, dislikes & any instructions to make our time safe & happy. Please add any additional information if it is not . on the questionnaire.
About: I’ve had cats and interacted with dogs my whole life. I have been house/pet sitting for friends and family since I was 12 and have cared for many different pet households. I have bathed and medicated multiple different dogs and cats and walked dozens of dogs. I’m currently available 24/7 for visits, dog walking, and house sitting. My schedule is very flexible and i’m willing to work odd hours if needed. I love meeting new animals and am always careful with nervous pets. I am great at following instructions and always respectful of pets and belongings.
About: I have 3 dogs of my own of various sizes and 2 cats. I love taking care of pets and have experience pet sitting and volunteering at the animal shelter. I currently work full time remotely so I can be flexible with drop ins, walks, and house sitting if I am able to work in your home or commute back and forth! I am comfortable with different settings and multiple pets! I have the most experience with cats and dogs, however I can to care for other pets as well, if shown!
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and currently have both a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and providing walks, playtime, fetch, feeding, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I know how much peace of mind it gives me to know my own pets are with someone who will genuinely care for them, not just check in on them. I’m dependable, attentive, and will take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine so they can feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following feeding schedules, household instructions, exercise routines, and any special preferences you have for your pet. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same affection and care that I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule while I work on my graduate degree, which gives me availability throughout the day to care for your pet as much as needed. I’m able to accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of companionship. Having this flexibility also allows me to spend quality time with your pet rather than simply stopping by and rushing through their care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s normal routine, personality, boundaries, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding routines, and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both their space and their established routine so they can remain in an environment that feels familiar to them. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or anything else that may seem unusual, and I believe in keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clifton
Lori is fantastic! From the moment she arrived for house-sitting until her lengthy good-bye, she was warm and pleasant and clearly showed her love for my fur-babies. We are vacationing, and needed someone to stay with our dogs in an unfamiliar place while the humans explored the beautiful area. Lori was easy to work with from the beginning, and accepted our request knowing she would not be able to meet us or our dogs in advance. We exchanged messages in advance, and I don't think we could have had a better experience. Lori is a warm, friendly person and that clearly extended to our precious pups in her care. THANK YOU, LORI!
Robert took excellent care of both our pets and our home while we were away. One of our dogs is medically fragile, and he did a wonderful job keeping us updated and reassuring us that she was doing well while staying on top of her many medications. It gave us so much peace of mind. He also left our home in great condition, which we really appreciated. We also chose to add on baths for both of our pups, and he did a great job. We couldn't be happier with the care he provided and will definitely book with him again. We highly recommend Robert to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.
Our experience with Amelia was excellent. She took such great care of our pets and paid attention to every detail. She was very responsive and sent us plenty of pictures of our pets. She took great care of our house too. I would definitely recommend Amelia as a pet sitter/house sitter and will rebook with her again.
Angela was wonderful with our pets. She kept us updated on her schedule while we were out of town and sent us pictures and updates through out the time she was house sitting and taking care of our pets. We will definitely rebook with Angela next time we need a pet sitter.
Amanda is the BEST! She watched our 4 dogs and 1 cat for an entire week and did the most amazing job. We had no worries the entire time we were gone knowing they were in such good hands. She was even flexible when our flights were super delayed! We can’t wait to keep working with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Clifton on Rover is $38.85 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 189 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clifton. 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 Clifton 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 Clifton 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 Clifton 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.
