“5-star, 10 out of 10, hit it out of the park! Ashley was so professional with the process and made me very comfortable leaving my dog & cat for the first time. Lots of photo updates and messages to help me feel good and be able to enjoy my trip away.”
“Sean was wonderful! He genuinely cares about animals, sent thoughtful updates throughout, and followed every instruction perfectly. I came home to a happy, relaxed pet. Highly recommend, and will absolutely book again!”
“Nayla did an excellent job taking care of our 1-year old standard poodle, as well as our house. She got the exercise she needed, and I could tell our pup was very happy and relaxed when we came home! We will hire Nayla again!!”
“Melissa came to the house early Sunday morning to be with Tootsie and Gizmo. She stayed with them until Saturday evening. They were well cared for. Thank you very much, Melissa.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life I have been a dog sitter for almost 6 years now I take care all kinds of dogs and cats not age requirement. I currently don't have a job so I'm free mostly during the week other than Wednesday night. Weekends I'm usually busy busy still have to time to check on the dogs or cats if needed. When I walk my dogs I always have good spatial awareness and I'm always carrying pepper spray I also don't walk dogs at night for their safety.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I prioritize making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while keeping owners updated and worry-free the entire time I currently work a full-time job from 8 to 5 but have the ability to come home for lunch and my job is very flexible. I care for pets in their home by keeping them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and of course lots of love. I also keep the home clean and respectful, provide regular updates/photos, and make sure each pet feels safe and cared for the entire time.
About: As early as 8 years old, I’ve had hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. From taking in and caring for outside cats to helping raise and care for puppies through their senior years, animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. I’ve helped with the everyday care that keeps pets happy and healthy, including walking, potty breaks, bathing, flea care, giving medications, feeding, and keeping up with their routines. One of my favorite parts of caring for animals is building trust with them. I naturally speak to animals gently and patiently, especially when guiding, correcting, or rewarding them. I believe pets respond best when they feel safe, understood, and respected. Whether your angel is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, elderly and needing extra patience, or simply attached to their normal routine, I want them to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy the maintenance and little details of pet care—not just the fun parts. I’m happy to keep up with potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, medications, baths, cleanliness, and whatever routine helps your pet feel at home. My goal is for your pet to receive the same patience, affection, and gentle guidance I would want for my own. 🐾❤️ Your angel is in good hands with me! It’s daily As someone who loves to take care of animals and give out affection, I see pet sitting more as a bond, then just simply a job They are provided with the same care that they will receive from their loving parents, think of it more of spending the night with their favorite aunt!
“Brittany was such a blessing for us! She kept us well informed and genuinely cared for our 2 dogs! After I met her, I quickly realized, I would not have any reservations at all leaving my pets and home in her care! I am so grateful for this service and the opportunity I have now to know Brittany!”
“I hired Josh for dog-sitting and he was awesome! He did an amazing job with my dog Chance. I had very detailed notes and he followed them all. He sent me photos of my fur baby and how much fun they were having daily. My dog is high energy so I was worried about leaving him but Josh played with him a lot and took him for walks. I will always book him in the future. I would HIGHLY recommend Josh to anyone in need of pet services.”
“Daniel was very punctual and answered all our questions. She immediately clicked with our dog and our dog liked her very much. She sent photos during the dog sitting and we always knew how our dog was doing. Our dog received an overdose of scratches with Daniel and she loved it. We will hire her again, and We definitely recommend her services. HAPPY CUSTOMER and HAPPY DOG.”
“Akilah went above and beyond. She helped me out when another sitter cancelled last second. My dog and cat loved her as soon as they met her. She sent me photos and videos while I was away. She even took out the trash and washed the sheets in the room she was staying in!! Will definitely use her again.”
“Jennifer was a fantastic house sitter for an 11 day stay for my 2 large dogs and 2 cats. This was an emergency, and so I had to book her with only 2 days notice. She came to meet with me and the animals before, and very quickly learned the routines for walking, feeding, and caring for the animals and the household. Everything was fantastic during her stay and she had excellent communication and tons of pictures. She's also kind of a neat freak, and left the house cleaner than when I left it!! I know my animals were well cared for, and would definitely have her back. 10/10 - and I would definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a house sitter!”

“She did amazing with my dog. She sent updates and pictures while we were gone. She kept the house tidy and was super nice. Definitely will use again.”
About: From my experience in shelter care and veterinary medicine, I am very comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and medical needs. I have dealt with strays and owned pets from every imaginable background, and I believe every animal is worthy of patience, respect, and affection. I’m currently unemployed so I have a very open schedule for watching your dogs and cats! I typically let my own dogs out about 4-5 times a day, and they each have their own feeding schedule that I attend to as needed. I am very flexible right now, and would also be available to do fluids, injections, and other specific medical and behavioral needs (e.g., extra walks, extra play time, etc.). I have a fenced in yard and three friendly dogs, and two sweet cats, to keep your furbaby company. I am comfortable crating dogs and have an extra crate for a small-medium dog. One of my dogs is a senior dog with special needs, so I am perfectly comfortable housing and caring for dogs who have their own special needs. I also have a dog with epilepsy so I am very used to dealing with seizures and the safety precautions that go along with them. These dogs have also never met a stranger, and our home is an overall very welcoming environment to all creatures (I even have a pet spider!).
About: I’ve taken care of all animals!! Cats, dogs, lizards, even parrots for neighbors and friends. They even recommended me to their friends and I’ve been dog sitting ever since! I love dogs especially because I have one of my own, Jaxon, he’s a chocolate lab who LOVES peanut butter and belly rubs! i currently work part-time at Singleton Community Center and a college student at Southwest Community College! i typically work in the mornings at singleton for 4 hours. i have classes from 9-2 on Mondays and Wednesdys and 12-2 on Tuesday and Thursday! i have a fenced back yard for my dog for when he needs to go outside! he’s super cuddle so he sleeps in my room and cuddles a lot!! i also play with him and his toys when he’s in a hyper mood which i would do for all the dogs i’ve dogsat!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and lizards throughout my lifetime. I have frequently dog sat for my sister’s goodlendoodle and poodle over the years.

Brooke did her usual superb job of caring for Bingo who can be a bit of a challenge at times. She took such good care of our fur baby and kept us updated with reports and pictures. We feel lucky to have her taking care of Bingo allowing us to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind.
It was a pleasure working with Erin! I could tell, right away, she’s a caring animal lover. I have 2 doxies. One is fairly quick to warm up to new people. The other one is very stubborn and ‘momma’s’ baby. Erin was patient yet persistent to get Luna to ‘warm up’. I look forward to booking with her again soon! Many thanks Erin!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Cordova is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Cordova 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 Cordova 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cordova 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
