“Julian did a great job with our pups. She was even able to get our shepherd who never eats while we are away to eat. They looked so comfortable in the picture updates she sent!”
“Katina was wonderful. After a death in my family she came through with compassion for me, but agreed to watch Quigley on short notice. She constantly updated me via text and with pictures. It made me feel so comfortable when I had to leave him. When I returned it was clear how much he had enjoyed his time with her. Thanks again! I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Elizabeth was great! We recently got a new puppy and needed a dog watcher last minute and we found Elizabeth. She was very responsive and great with our dogs. We would definitely use her again and I recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter in this area!”
“Sarah is an AWESOME listener! I talked for an hour straight to tell her every detail about how to care for our three dogs. And how to properly close our tight fitting doors And other minutia. She left her house in perfect condition. The dogs hardly seem to notice I was gone. Which never happens. Good on ya Sarah!”
“Mikayla took such great care of Athena and Enzo while we were away. It was obvious they were well loved and got plenty of playtime 😃. She sent lots of pictures and videos throughout our trip, which made being away from them so much easier. She was easy to communicate with, always kept us updated, and went above and beyond by feeding our fish and even checking on our butterflies. We came home to happy dogs and a home that was just as we left it. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We’re so thankful we found Mikayla and will absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!”
“Alaina was wonderful! She stayed with our pack and watched our home over the weekend. She was communicative, kind, and clean. And our pups loved her! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while away. We would absolutely love to use your services in the future.”

About: I started house sitting for family/friends when I was younger. I’ve worked at a dog boarding facility since the day I turned 16 and absolutely love animals!

“Emily was great to have as a house guest and pet sitter. We came home to an impeccably clean house and a happy dog! We are grateful for her service and help, will definitely book her again. Thanks Emily!”
About: Hi! I'm the type of dog lover that will roll down my window and say things like, "Awww look at that good, sweet pup. You're such a good dog." if I see a dog with its head out the window. 🤣 I see a dog out walking, I have to meet it. Go to a dog shelter? I'm no longer allowed there - I want to bring them all home! Anyways, I absolutely adore dogs and know that they are family members who deserve love, time and proper care! My husband and I have 4 dogs that we love to run around in the backyard with and take for walks! We have a Bichon named Buddy who is 13, a St Bernard Mix named Sadie who is 11, a mini aussie named Kali who is 10, and another mini Aussie mix named Nora who is 3. They are the best of friends and the greatest companions through the highs and lows of life. I've also pet sat for friends and family over the years, including caring for cows! I am an animal lover, but dogs hold the largest piece of my heart. I would absolutely love to come and walk/play with your fur baby! My schedule is completely flexible! I'm here to make sure everything runs on your schedule! I'm currently working part time from home and create my own schedule. I run my own business and will always put your schedule and your pups first! Monday-Friday are absolutely free from 9am-5pm with nights available occasionally during the school year. Nights available now, until Aug 31st. I do not offer in home boarding at this time unless it is a small puppy. With 4 dogs and 2 kids, we have a full house already! I will stay at your house overnight if needed! Within your home, I care for your pets exactly how you ask + lots of extra love and pets and cuddles. Showing up when you need me to and staying the length of time you need is very important to me as I know it is for you and your pets as well. Their well-being and happiness will always be at the forefront.
“It was a pleasure to have Alyssa in our home. Her availability was exactly what we needed for our older dog and her communication with us was great! Our dog was well cared for and our home was clean when we arrived back home. Will definitely book her again for future trips!”
“Karen did a wonderful job sitting for our geriatric greyhound in our home! Very reliable and put our minds at ease with regular updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
“Tim was fantastic! Not only were my 2 vivacious pups well taken care of and happy, he went above and beyond. We returned to a sparkling clean home and many home repairs were completed. You can rest assured your home and babies will be in good hands with Tim! We have no reservations when recommending Tim.”
“Cera was amazing with Piper and went above and beyond! So very thankful to have found her!!! Cera spent quality time with Piper and kept us updated. We will definitely reach out again when services are needed!”
About: As a young female I have cared for many family pets, so I’ve experienced every stage from puppies to seniors. I provide reliable, structured care whether it’s keeping dogs active with frequent neighborhood walks, taking a nap with them, or just coming to check up on your furbaby if that’s all you need! I currently work about 15 hours a week so I should have plenty of time to give your dog the care he or she needs! I don’t mind sitting during the day or night whatever would make you know your pet is safe. Whether in your home or mine, I like to maintain constant supervision and ensure all dogs will be okay. I use sturdy leashes for every walk and stay highly alert to our surroundings to avoid any high stress interactions with other animals or people for those sensitive dogs. I also like to make sure your animal eats and feel comfortable enough to make sure they get the proper nutrition.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cloverdale on Rover is $49.95 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 651 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:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
