Really cared for the cats, great communicator, and kind person! It was so nice to go away knowing the cats would not only be cared for but they would be cuddled and loved! Could not recommend her more!!

Mary went above and beyond. We are recent empty nesters so this was a first time for me, leaving my dog and house in the care of a stranger, and it couldn’t have gone better. I told her upfront that over-communication was probably going to work best for me and she made sure I always knew how Duke was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my home and Duke were being well cared for. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house. Truly grateful to have found someone I can call on again on our next travel.

Jacob was AMAZING with our four...challenging pets (two cats, two dogs). His communication with us was clear and consistent throughout our entire trip, he followed all of our instructions exactly as we asked, and our animals (and house!) were all well taken care of. I can't recommend Jacob enough!

About: I feel as though I automatically connect with animals first in a room full of people. I have a deep love for animals. I have been caring for my puggle for about 8 years now, I truly feel as though he is my son. I enjoy spending time with animals of all sorts. In the past, I owned a rabbit, hamsters, fish, cats, hermit crabs, you name it. But, I find that dogs often times have personalities that they portray of the owner when I interact dogs, which I find very amusing. I have a knowledge base of bathing dogs, tick and flea prevention, immunizations, etc. I feel as though I am a very energetic/active individual who would very much enjoy the company of your most trusted companion!

Tristyn was a godsend. We needed last minute doggy care at our house for our little spaniel. Tristyn immediately responded with warmth, knowledge and understanding. The next day she arrived right on time, had a gentle energy and took care of our pet. Her rate was reasonable. Her personality was pleasant and respectful. I am so lucky I have her to count on in the future. Thanks Tristyn.

Jessica exceeded every expectation! I was out of the country for 10 days. Jessica house sat and took care of my two 11-year-old cats. My boy needs meds every morning and evening. She made great effort to make sure he got the meds, especially the first couple of days when he was getting used to her. She actually brought gates from her home and moved furniture so that she could give my boy his meds. She texted me every day with updates and pictures. I recommend her without hesitation. She's great!

We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.

Super nice, super responsible and a super find! This was our first experience with Kirsten. We were so fortunate to find such a nice person and fabulous dog sitter. She took on 3 dogs… walking , feeding, and playing with them. She even found room to sleep as they all spent the night with her on a queen sized bed. All 3 dogs told us they loved her and hope they will see her again. Finally, the house was in perfect order when we returned. Thank you, Kirsten!

Carismeldi was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our dog, Izzy, during our 8-day trip. She stayed in our home, sent us photos and updates every single day, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of Izzy. When Izzy had a bout of an upset stomach, Carismeldi kept us informed and followed all of our instructions to a T, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was also incredibly flexible when our flight was delayed and happily gave Izzy one last walk later than originally planned. It was clear throughout her stay that Izzy was in very capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend Carismeldi to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. We would absolutely have her watch Izzy again!

Couldn't recommend Amanda more! She stepped in super last‑minute to stay at our home and watch our two dogs (lifesaver!), and we couldn’t be more grateful for her help. She kept us updated throughout her stay with messages and photos which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs seemed super happy the whole time/when we came home, it was clear she did such a great job taking care of them. We highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable pet sitter. We’re so thankful for her care and will absolutely be booking with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Colwyn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Colwyn on Rover is $35.52 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 5,544 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Colwyn. 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 Colwyn 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 Colwyn 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 Colwyn 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 Colwyn. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
