My dogs are happy to see him. He is very reliable and is great at giving my older dog his medicine. This was his second time with the dogs and I will readily hire him again.

Louann took very good care of Lexi. Lexi was glad to see us when we got home, but is missing Louann. I would highly recommend Louann as both a pet sitter as well as a house sitter.

Our review is based on our meet and greet with Michelle. Because of an unforeseen personal situation, we were not able to move forward with this booking. We believe Michelle would be a fabulous sitter and hope she will be given that opportunity.

Kim stayed at our house and watched our dog while we were out of town. She came to our house to meet us before and to get acquainted with our dog. She was very professional and seems very experienced with animals. We were really pleased with how she cared for our dog and our house and all of the pictures and updates from her. We would definitely recommend her!

Madelyn came to our home to care for our new puppy while we were out of town. We've never had an in-home sitter and can't say enough positive comments about Madelyn and this experience! She was exceptionally communicative throughout the weekend with numerous updates and pictures. Madelyn clearly has a love of animals that shows in her care and interactions. We highly recommend Madelyn to help you care for your pets when you're away! She will definitely be the first one we contact if we are in need of an in-home pet sitter again!

Great Sitter🙏 We had a great experience with our dog sitter! She stayed overnight and was incredibly responsive, proactive, and dependable. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent us enough updates to know our dogs were doing well without us ever having to worry. It honestly made being away a lot easier knowing they were in good hands. She took the time to make sure everything was taken care of and went above and beyond what we expected. We really appreciated how reliable and communicative she was and would absolutely have her watch our dogs again. Highly recommend!

Magee-Lee did amazing with our two pups! One of our babies is very shy but she didn't seem to have a problem with Magee! We will be using her for future needs and definitely recommend to anyone that needs any pet service (including overnight). Shes extremely flexible, polite and reliable. I couldn't think of a better person to watch my fur children.

She is a great pet sitter. We have older pets who have medications and are on specific schedules. Anna asked great questions during our meet and greet and made me have confidence in booking her. Our pets seemed to enjoy her presence and looked liked they warmed up to her quickly. We look forward to working with her in the future!

About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them. I help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their usual routines so they feel comfortable and at ease. I follow care instructions closely and pay attention to each pet’s personality and energy level, making sure they get the attention and care they need. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home, which gives me flexibility during the day for drop-in visits and check-ins. I’m fully available after 4:30 on weekdays. I’m also fully available on weekends, so I can offer complete care during Saturday and Sunday. I follow care instructions closely, keep homes tidy, and make sure pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for. I’m respectful of your space and will always communicate updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

Amy was a great sitter for our Dixie girl. She sent pictures and communicated very well. She also watered our plans and left our home perfectly clean. We extended our time away by a day at the last minute and Amy was willing to stay and accommodate our plans. We look forward to having her again!

Haley is the best sitter we have had! She takes the time to meet and understand your dogs’ needs first. I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!

About: Hi! I’m Averie, and I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. From dogs and cats to horses and livestock, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, personalities, and care routines, and I’m comfortable providing care for animals with different needs. I also have eight years of hands-on experience with pregnant dogs, litters, and newborn puppies. I’ve been present for and helped care for my dog through eight years of births and puppy litters, giving me experience that goes beyond typical pet sitting. While I’m not veterinary trained, I’m comfortable recognizing when an animal may need extra attention and understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and other special requirements. I understand how important it is to keep your pets’ routines as consistent as possible while you’re away. When your pets are in my care, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll keep you updated throughout your time gone so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every animal I care for like they’re my own. Whether you need an overnight stay or a drop-in visit, I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets! My schedule varies from week to week, as I do not work a traditional 9–5 schedule. I have some daytime work commitments and occasional evening commitments, but I’m able to plan my pet-sitting availability around each booking. I also have a few regular church and event commitments throughout the week. Because my schedule is flexible and changes week to week, I communicate my availability clearly before accepting a booking and make sure I can fully commit to the care your pets need. I’m happy to work with each owner to find a schedule that works well for both of us. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, allowing pets to stay in the environment they know and are comfortable in. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, medications, exercise, playtime, and any other instructions provided by the owner. I’m very respectful of my clients’ homes and take responsibility for keeping everything clean, organized, and well cared for while I’m there. I clean up after the pets, keep their spaces tidy, and make sure I leave the home in the same or better condition than I found it. I’m also mindful of doors, gates, and other details that help keep pets secure. I understand that trusting someone with your pets and your home is a big responsibility. I take that trust seriously and want you to come home knowing your pets were well cared for and your home was treated with the same respect.

Tom is a gem and we were lucky to find him after our relocation to East Texas. We left our home knowing that our babies were in good hands. Tom was respectful of our property and we were very comfortable being away. It was a fantastic experience.

FAQs for House Sitting - Collinsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 1,362 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Collinsville. 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 Collinsville 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 Collinsville 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 Collinsville 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 Collinsville. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
