“savannah was excellent, always kept me updated and really paid close attention to my dog who i love so much. i felt so great on my time away knowing she was there to help us and care for him.”
“Trena was amazing! She is great at sending pictures and keeping us updated. Our house looked like she had never even been here when she left. It was so nice not having to worry at all about our dog while we were on a trip. Thanks so much Trena!”
“Tressa is a one-of-a-kind dog sitter. As first-time Rover users, we were hesitant about leaving our dogs with a stranger. She kindly accommodated multiple meetings with our dogs before we left for vacation so our girls could become comfortable with her. She sent multiple photo and video updates daily which provided peace of mind during our entire vacation—always showing how happy our girls were. She left the house spotless and I would not hesitate to book her again!”
“Naomi was wonderful! She communicated well, was reliable, sent photos and even offered to come back if our flight was delayed due to bad weather. We’ll definitely hire her again!!”
“Emily was absolutely perfect with my boys. When i returned home the house was clean and dogs were very happy! She sent me pictures of the boys every day and i loved that. I would highly recommend Emily 👍🏻”
“We had a wonderful experience with Bonnie. She stayed at our home and took excellent care of our senior dog while we were away. Our dog can be a little anxious and isn’t always the easiest dog to care for, but she was patient, attentive, and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were gone. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and treated him like her own. We came home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for house. We are so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We would gladly book with her again!”
“Carly was fantastic. She was easy to communicate with and sent updates throughout her stay, including a sweet photo of our pup. We'll definitely reach out to her again!”
“Landry has watched our fur babies multiple times and each time Landry is so thorough and takes such good care of not only our animals, but our home too! I highly recommend Landry if you are looking for a house sitter. Your fur babies will be in great hands 🙏🏼 thanks Landry!!”
“This is the third time Emma has stayed with Goose and again we came home to a clean house and tired dog. Emma is great! We’re looking forward to having her dog sit multiple more times this year.”
“This was Taylor’s second time doing a longer overnight stay (6 nights). As always, he took good care of our pups and provided updates. House was well taken care of as well!”
“Britney was wonderful! Very responsive and communicated (with the best photos!) throughout the time she house-sat for us. She was professional, tidy and the pups enjoyed the time with her. We're thrilled with Britney and can't wait to have her sit for us again soon!”
About: Ive been around animals my entire life including big or small (dogs, cats, fish, horses, etc) I've taken care of dogs all shapes and sizes including my dorm parents massive (and energetic) Great Pyrenees puppy. I am able to accommodate any kind of dog, Puppy, Rescue, senior, special needs. I can also clean homes if you need the help. I can currently take care of your pets during the weekends all day, and weekdays outside the hours 9-5. I understand potty breaks are a must so i can offer one 15 min long walk during my work day. To keep a safe envirment and to keep everything stress free i am willing to travel to your home and take care of your fur babies.
“Vanessa was amazing! My dog recently had surgery & I was so nervous to leave him for the night. Vanessa was super knowledgeable & made me feel so much better about leaving my pup with a sitter! She sent a ton of updates, photos, and was very communicative! She was great!”
“Jeremy and Megan were wonderful to work with. This was our first time using someone other than friends and family and I don’t think we could have found better. They are kind and communicative. Our dog, Porkchop took to them right away, and we feel our boy got all the love he longs for while we were away. We will definitely use Jeremy and Megan again! Highly recommend.”
“Elizabeth was amazing! I will 100% be booking again. She was very communicative and constantly sending me pics (even got some of him in a pumpkin costume and some professional ones lol!) My pup is older, so he needs to go to the bathroom more often and she was able to accommodate that with her work schedule. Also he needs to take pills and she was great at making sure he got them. I’m thankful I found someone who loves Blu just as much to watch him while I’m gone. She’s the best!”
“Kate was fantastic and made my first Rover experience completely worry-free. My dog Myka is a senior with a fairly involved daily routine, multiple medications on a strict schedule, a specific feeding routine, and some extra care needed on the stairs and just in general. Kate followed every instruction to the letter and I never had to worry once. She sent photo updates and checked in daily the entire time I was away, which meant so much for my peace of mind. Beyond just handling the logistics, it was clear Kate genuinely cared about Myka's comfort and about respecting my home while I was gone. I came back to a happy, well cared for dog and a house exactly as I left it. Already looking forward to booking Kate again, couldn't recommend her more.”

Hailey was absolutely amazing with both of my dogs! She’s a great communicator and keeps you updated throughout your time away from your pups. When my truck broke down and I was delayed, Hailey was incredible, she extended her stay and made sure my dogs were perfectly taken care of. Both of my dogs loved her! I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cowan on Rover is $29.97 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 437 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cowan. 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 Cowan 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 Cowan 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 Cowan 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.
