“Liz was available on short notice and took great care of my dog Nova! I got lots of picture updates and had a happy dog when I returned home. I would definitely recommend her and ask her to watch Nova again in the future.”
“Daniel took AMAZING care of my pets and my home!! I have chickens, an indoor cat, & a 12 month old Great Pyrenees, who is pretty difficult. He is either high strung or napping… there’s no middle ground. Daniel’s calm demeanor was just what was needed to create a successful stay with my dog! He took him walking with other dogs which was great & Daniel seemed to have managed quite well. The hens and kitty appeared to have also been taken care of perfectly! I hope to have Daniel come back and stay for my next getaway! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“Dyllan did a great job while I was on vacation. Bowie was well taken care of and the house was all in order. I find Dyllan to be very responsible. I’ll have her watch Bowie again.”
“I highly recommend Anna. She is very responsible and was great with my 2 dogs. She updated me regularly about how my pups were doing. Definitely a huge peace of mind knowing my home and fur babies were in such good hands.”
“Jenn was FANTASTIC! She was confident that she would be best pals with our babies and she was not wrong! Our two kitties loved spending time with Jenn while we were away, and knowing that our fur pals were receiving the love and care they deserve, enabled us the piece of mind to be fully present during our 2 week vacation. Jenn is a great communicator, she is gentle, thoughtful, and loving, and she will make a GREAT pet sitter for anyone looking for exceptional at home pet care. THANKS AGAIN JENN! You’re amazing 🫶”
“Marisa house sat taking care of my crazy pack of dogs. I have four and they all have varying needs as well as energy levels. My 16.5 year old pomeranian is considered "hospice" and requires a lot of extra care, medications and diapers. My other three include two "teenage" age chocolate labs! Marisa was WONDERFUL with all of them. With my pom its so stressful to travel not knowing if he will get all his medications, will he eat, Marisa took so much of that stress off of me. She knew how to deal with his medications as well as how important it was that he get them. I honestly cannot say enough good things about our experience with Maris she was amazing and we plan to book her again!”
“Cynthia is the best! She is not only a lovely person, she is kind, conscientious, communicative and caring. She sent us frequent emails and photos of our pup while we were away, which we appreciated. It was delightful to come home to a very happy dog and immaculate house. I’d give 10 stars if I could. Thank you, Cynthia!”
“Our experience with Brittaney exceeded ALL our expectations! The house was most definitely cleaner than we had left it and the dogs were happy, well fed and taken care of! Brittaney let us know each day via photos and messages how the dogs were doing which was very comforting. Brittaney is a very loving person and well educated in animal science. After our initial meet and greet, one of our more aloof dogs showed immediate affection towards Brittaney! After meeting Brittaney, we felt confident the dogs would be happy and well taken care of and we proceeded to have a carefree vacation! Yay! We will most definitely ask Brittaney back again.”
“Took great care of our babies! Did a great job with our diabetic doggo and his big brother 🥰 We normally like to travel with our dogs, but couldn't take them- so we were worried. Esp with our one dog needing a regular food/med schedule. They had a great response time and sent photos regularly, which made us feel better. Came home to a clean house and 5 happy fur babies.”
“Michael took great care of Lola and Ringo in our home. They were as happy as can be when we got home after 8 days. It was great knowing that they were happy and being taken great care of while we were on vacation. We definitely recommend Michael.”
“When you have pets the day will inevitably come when you want to go somewhere and need to find someone to stay with them. Look no further! We found Mignon to be kind, resourceful and conscientious with our dogs. She is very good at communicating, she kept the dogs busy while somehow keeping the house clean. When we came home we found two tired, happy pups plus a note documenting her stay and homemade dog treats! We couldn’t ask for more. We are thrilled to recommend Mignon though selfishly we wish we could keep her to ourselves.”
“Absolutely awesome sitter! Spent so much time with my dog. Followed his recovery schedule, for his tooth extraction. Updated with pictures and videos throughout the days. Highly recommend!”
“First time using Rover. Overall great experience. Elise responds quick and was on time. She sent pictures and daily updates. Dogs seemed to really like her. We will be using Rover again!”
“We highly recommend Lisa for house/pet sitting. She stayed in our home with our MJ for 2 nights. Lisa is great about communicating and our house was nice and clean when we got home. She txted when she had questions and let us know that MJ was doing well. I would definitely use her again.”
“Phedre is awesome! We have used her three times now, and every time we have come home to happy dogs, a clean home and washed linens! She is also great at staying in touch with pics of our two dogs! Sure helps knowing they are being cared for while we are away!! Thank you, Phedre!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cloverdale
Rosalyn came by for a meet and greet and then sat for us one afternoon. We have just added a puppy to our household so he’s a handful, but she was fantastic! She asked lots of questions about their schedule and habits and we knew they were in great hands when we left! She was on time and friendly! We’re already planning to use her again!
I was able to go camping for a weekend and know that my dog was very well loved and taken care of as if I was still there. Emilee sent a bunch of pictures to update me on how my pup was doing and made sure my place looked the same as when I left. If you need someone to trust with your dog, Emilee is your person.
Lisa was outstanding! She was friendly, personable, prompt, and communicative throughout the entire process. When we arrived home, our house was in immaculate condition. She even thoughtfully asked if we would like our sheets washed. Lisa was incredibly easygoing and adaptable, which I really appreciated. Everything felt effortless and stress-free. We look forward to working with her again in the future and would highly recommend her to others.
Phedre has done multiple day walks and home visits for our little Poms, and recently had her first multi-overnight stay with our babies in our home and it went great! She takes them on adventures, shares photos and updates and we can tell our babies are getting plenty of love while we’re away. She also left the home spotless and had the dishwasher running and sheets in the laundry - super helpful for us to come home to that with all the unpacking we have to do! Looking forward to our next visit with Phedre🙏🏻
Kayla is amazing!!! She watched our two dogs for a week. They had a great time with her at our home. She sent pictures and updates every single day. Our communication was open and easy. We came home to our house just how we left it and bigger plants because she watered for us too. We can't thank her enough for all the love and care she provided while we were gone.
I am writing to share my positive experience with Rachel, who recently took care of our dogs. She was very kind and did an excellent job following all of our instructions, which was especially important to me regarding my senior pup. We returned to a very tidy house, and I would certainly hire her again if the need ever arose.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cloverdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cloverdale on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 947 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cloverdale. 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 Cloverdale 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 Cloverdale 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 Cloverdale 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 Cloverdale. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
