“Leah was so good with my Jordan! He is very nervous with new people at first but she gave him time and space to warm up to her on his own and by the time I got back he didn’t want to leave her side. She was so kind putting up with me too and following my very detailed pages of care instructions - she gave him his meds, fed him and sent pics so I knew he was well cared for while I was gone which was such a huge relief and let me actually enjoy my vacation without worrying about my fur baby the whole time. I cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!!”
“Dimecia was wonderful with my girl Darcy! She came for a meet and greet before even on a last minute request! She sent pictures of her visit and updated me about my girl. She spent time snuggling and giving belly rubs in the evening just like my baby loves! I could tell Dracy felt the love and made a friend for life! I will definitely be using Dimecia again in the future .”
About: I’ve had an assortment of pets my whole life, and was a groomer for several years. I’ve worked with pets big and small, from the greatest of Danes and even creepy crawlies! I love working with animals and have nothing to do but snuggle pets in my spare time! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to help accommodate you in any way I can! I want to bring comfort to your pets while you have to be away! As a fur mom of a couple of “Velcro” dogs myself, I know how sad they can be without us! I really love to chat with them while I am there!
“Danielle was amazing. I had complete peace of mind while she was caring for our pup. She sent updates and pictures. Will definitely book with her again if we need it!”
“Meredith is such a great sitter. Our 4 boys loved her. You can tell she really loves dogs and goes above and beyond for her clients! We will definitely rebook!”
“Nayla was incredible! She took care of our home and all of our many animals with precision and love. We came home to a very happy household and that means the world to us. Nayla was very communicative! Nayla handled our special medical needs dog (blind/diabetic) amazingly. We were able to be away from home without a single worry thanks to Nayla. Not to mention the multiple times our plans changed the week of our trip and Nayla accommodated us/handled every change perfectly. We’d love to have Nayla housesit for us again, and hopefully she feels the same about us!”
“Adel is the best! He has watched our pups numerous times and always does an amazing job. The dogs love him and we feel good knowing that we can travel without stress because we know they are happy and well taken care of. He also takes great care of the house and even did laundry! Would recommend him 100%”
“Amy took care of our pack for a long weekend and we were so pleased with everything! We have four rescue dogs ranging in size from 15lbs to 95lbs, so our house can be hectic at times. Amy made a point to learn each dog’s quirks and really connect with them individually. Amy was very thorough during our meet and greet, asking lots of questions about the dogs, their needs, and their schedule. She was well prepared upon arrival and the dogs all took to her immediately! One of our dogs began limping while we were away and Amy immediately sent us videos and pictures so we could decide the best course of action. We decided to treat with meds that we had at home and Amy kept us updated as our pup recovered. Amy even texted the next week to check in and make sure our girl was feeling better! I can’t recommend Amy enough! She took great care of our dogs and home. She was very communicative and prepared. Everything we want in a sitter!”
“Anna is amazing! Anna treats my Birdie just like I do. And Birdie adores her. She sends me beautiful photos of Birdie in action and is a great writer with a little story about every day. I live for them when I’m traveling. She also left my home spotless. Totally unnecessary but lovely to come home to a clean fresh house.”
“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.”
“Morgan did a great job of sitting with our older dog. I was worried about him, but shouldn't have been. He was happy when we returned from our trip, and not stressed at all. Morgan checked in with us periodically and sent photos. Our home was in great shape, too. We will definitely book Morgan next time we travel!”
“Lidia was absolutely a rockstar with Dex! She was so attentive to him and sent me detailed updates so that I knew my little guy was living his best life. 10 out of 10 recommend Lidia!”
About: I currently dog sit two dogs named Ducky and George and have been for a couple months. Previously I have dog(pet) sat for multiple people going on 6 years. I have worked with dogs and animals of all types and sizes and am comfortable with any kind of animal. I I’ve worked with animals my whole life as well being raised on a farm. When I was younger I cared for our donkeys, horses, and helped with the cattle. For as long as I can remember I’ve always had dogs in the family. I currently have 2 Aussie Doodles Max and Molly. And my family often take in and care for older rescue dogs. I have a rescue horse named Journey, he is a big orange sweetheart. I have a varried schedule during the week due to college, but am available most of the time. If I need to make a quick stop I’ll be sure to let the dog out prior to leaving and return as soon as possible. They would be left alone at home no longer then 4 hours. I have a fenced in backyard and the dogs can feel free to use the furniture how they like. If you provide the crate I will lock them up if needed.
“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.”
About: I will provide frequent updates. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own. You can expect me to go above and beyond what you ask of me. I am a college student but i will be able to check in between my classes. I am able to stay overnight. And weekends are entirely clear. What ever instructions you leave i will follow. If they like car rides I can take them in my car. I will take them on walks if needed.
“I was VERY happy with Tierra. She took great care of my pups and my house . She sent so many great pictures and videos throughout her stay. She was very interactive with them. She played with them so much my pups were exhausted when I got home, which was great because I was exhausted after my trip as well. My pups loved her. They were sad to see her leave at the end of the weekend. I will be using Tierra again, in fact, in the next couple of weeks.”

I also have a two year old shih tzu that i love as if my child Since I don’t work outside the home, I have a flexible daily schedule and plenty of time to give pets attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship.

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 $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $55 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.
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 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
