“Amanda was absolutely excellent! She communicated throughout our stay if there were any questions or issues. We came home to a clean house and happy pups so I would definitely recommend her to others to house sit and take care of their dogs! We already have her booked for our next trip. Thanks so much Amanda for taking such good care of our babies 🥰🥰”
“Sean was a wonderful sitter for our often anxious large dog. He kept our dog happy and comfortable while we were gone on a long trip, and kept our plants watered as well. He communicated daily with great pictures and updates, and was thoughtful in his suggestions regarding how to keep our dog happy and healthy while we were gone. Our house was in great shape when we returned, and our dog has a trusted friend. I won’t hesitate to contact Sean the next time we leave town!”
“Rebecca watched our two adult greyhounds and 4.5 month old puppy over the Thanksgiving holiday for 4 nights. She did an awesome job, feeding and letting them out at appropriate times. We are so thankful to have had one less worry! She kept the house tidy and was great about communication. Thanks so much, Rebecca!”
About: I am a big animal lover and can help with many things needed to give your animal the best care! have had many pets throughout the years; Cats, dogs, rabbits and chickens. I have also helped watching others pets. I have been a stay at home mom and with my kid going back to school I will have plenty of time available throughout the week. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a big yard in a great neighborhood. I have chickens as well as an indoor cat that is 9 years old.
“Brooke did a great job with our fur babies and kept our plants alive during an unusual hot spell. We are fortunate to have a large fenced yard the dogs can spend time in, and Brooke made sure to bring them in from the hottest times of day for cooling breaks. I appreciated that she could spend the night at the house to be available for nighttime potty needs!”
“MacKenzie was fantastic! We had a family member cancel with short notice for watching out 2 dogs and 3 cats for a week while we were going on vacation. I quickly hopped on Rover to see who was near us, and decided to message MacKenzie based on other reviews that had been left. She was quickly able to come over and meet our gang to make sure it would be a fit. After that initial meeting, my husband and I both felt very comfortable and confident with her coming to stay and take care of things while we were gone. The day we were supposed to leave, we ran into some issues but MacKenzie was flexible and fast to communicate. She was very punctual and sent brief updates/questions throughout the week (she has our preference on communication and we had told her we didn't need regular check ins or updates). When we got home, we could tell our dogs and cats had missed us, but it was also clear that they had been well taken care of. Overall, if and when I may need another house & pet sitter, I wouldn't hesitate to reach back out to MacKenzie and I won't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for help.”
“First time using Rover to engage a housesitter to care for our two pups in our home. Based on the many 5 star reviews on Wini's services profile. We did an initial meet and greet at our home before the dates we needed her to housesit. Wini asked a lot of questions about the care and routine for our pups as well as if there were any special needs she needed to be aware of. After our meet and greet, we decided to move forward and book her housesitter services for our 12 yr old senior lab and 5 yr old high energy little terrier mix. Wini is excellent at communicating and updating with photos/videos during our time away from home. House was clean and dogs were happy when we returned. We feel confident in booking her again in the future.”
About: 🐾 Hi, I'm Jasmine! I'm a Spokane local, mom, and lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. I provide dependable, loving care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I offer: • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Overnight pet sitting • Feeding and fresh water • Medication administration (if needed) • Plenty of playtime, cuddles, and companionship • Photo and update check-ins so you can have peace of mind while you're away I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I'm comfortable following specific routines and instructions to keep your pet happy and comfortable. As someone who values communication and reliability, you can count on me to show up on time, provide regular updates, and give your furry family members the love and attention they deserve. Whether you're heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra helping hand, I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets! 🐾 Reliable ❤️ Compassionate 📸 Daily Updates 🏡 Serving Spokane and surrounding areas Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. As a mom, I'm already used to having a structured schedule, which makes it easy for me to prioritize feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I have a flexible schedule and can provide morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on your pet's needs. I love being active outdoors, so walks and playtime are something I truly enjoy. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'm happy to follow their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. Providing updates and photos is also something I enjoy so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I believe every pet deserves to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my client's home or my own, I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs. In a client's home, I follow their feeding schedule, provide fresh water, take dogs for walks, clean up after pets, administer medications if needed, and make sure they receive plenty of playtime, affection, and attention. I also send regular photo and text updates so owners have peace of mind. I understand that every pet is different—some love to play and be active, while others prefer a calm environment and extra cuddles. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you're away.
“Tierra was wonderful! Our dog Hank loved her as soon as he met her at our meet and greet 😊 She did an amazing job watching him, she sent great updates and pictures and Hank had so much fun with her! We came back to a very happy guy after his time with her 😊 we will definitely use Tierra again”
“Natalee was absolutely fantastic! This was our first time ever using Rover or any similar service, and she completely put all of our worries and concerns at ease. From the very beginning, her professionalism, communication, and genuine care stood out. She was incredibly accommodating, understanding, and kept us updated throughout the entire process, which gave us so much peace of mind. We truly could not have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!”
“Monique was absolutely amazing! We have many animals and she gave them the best love and care. This was our first time using Rover and she eased us through the process and made us feel at ease. She was fabulous giving all the medications and treating our animals like her own. She texts and sends pictures regularly to give us updates throughout the day. She went above and beyond taking care of our home as well. We will be choosing her for every future vacation, especially since our dogs were sad when she left, they loved her so much! Truly blessed to have found her!”
“It can be hard to find a sitter that enjoys big dogs. Our big, goofy dogs love Clara! We appreciate that she let us know how they were doing and help them stay happy and on their routine (as it helps the smaller of our two dogs keep her anxiety down while we’re away). We will definitely call on her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Colbert
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Colbert on Rover is $42.18 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 763 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Colbert. 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 Colbert 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 Colbert 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 Colbert 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.
