“What a joy to come home from a vacation to a happy fur baby! Jennifer even removed the sheets from the bed in slept in and put them in the washer. She’s very detailed oriented and cares for my home the same way she does my dog: with professionalism and a huge heart.”
“When I hired Lisa she hadn't completed any jobs through Rover. I met her in person and my gut told me to give her a chance and hire her. I am SOOOOO glad I did. Lisa provided EXCEPTIONAL care to my 7 month old cockapoo, Max. She checked in with me the day before I left just to reassure me that he will be in good hands. Every day I was gone, she provided multiple updates, photos and videos of their daily adventures. She taught Max how to play catch. The first video she sent of him catching a ball was hilarious! I had no idea he could do that so it was a complete and amazing surprise to see him leaping acroos the screen and catching his ball! She stayed at my home with Max except for when she worked her FT day job. There were a couple days that she got off her regular job early and instead of doing her own thing, she came home to hang out with Max. She walked him multiple times a day. She created a routine where every evening they would watch movies with dogs in them because Max loves them, play catch and then have patio time. She left the house in immaculate condition at the end of her stay. She even washed the linens and swiffered the floors! The last day of her booking she was to leave at 8:45pm as I wasn't getting home until after midnight. However, she couldn't bare to leave him in his crate so she stayed until I got home. When I arrived, she had framed one of the photos she took of Max and had it with a note thanking me for letting her watch Max!!!! To top it off, when she left the house at 1:30am Max scratched at the door for her and cried and cried because he missed her. It broke my heart and at the same time validated that Lisa was the right choice to care for my beloved Max!!! I would hire her in a heartbeat again!!! She is THE BEST!!!!”
“Samantha was the ideal pet sitter for our 2 dogs! Great communication from start and finish and kept us in the loop about the dogs while we were gone. Would highly recommend for anyone needing reliable pet support”
“Andrew did very well in taking care of companion, Marcy. He sent photos and responded immediately when we communicated with him. We were away for 8 days and so thankful that Andrew was here. Before leaving, our car would not start,, and Andrew kindly offered a jumpstart, which we agreed to, and this enabled us to be on our way as planned. Thank you, Andrew!”
“Erin is wonderful! She house and dog sat for two weeks. Trustworthy and loving to our two dogs and send photos of them every day. Outstanding communicator. Will use again and again!”
“My cat and dog were so happy and relaxed when we returned from our recent trip. We received pictures and updates daily and we can tell they were totally spoiled. They are in very good and loving hands with Susan!”
“Reese did an amazing job: first walking me through how to introduce her to my anxious big dog at our meet-n-greet and on the first day of the sit. She regularly sent a ton of pictures of my three pets throughout the weeklong stay, which increased my enjoyment of my time away. And even though she caught a really bad cold while sitting, she remained extremely communicative and committed to staying with my pets until the day I was due home, which I greatly appreciated. And I also appreciated her efforts to make sure my home was sanitized and cleaned before I returned.”
“Emily was great! Lady loved her from the moment she walked in. Her communication was clear and prompt. We came home to a clean house and a content doggo. We will definitely ask Emily to stay again 😁”
“Tyrese was great. He took care of our dogs and house for an entire week. Kept us up to date every day on our dogs. And when we got home our house was clean, and dogs seemed well taken cared for, we appreciate you Tyrese and will use you again.”
“Kayla was such an amazing person and dog sitter. She kept us up to date on our pups, spent time and energy with them. They were very happy when we got home! Highly recommend Kayla!!!”
“Matti was great with both our dogs who are complete opposites. We have a high energy young 65 lb lab mix and a timid 13 yr old 8 lb chihuahua. They both got the specific attention they need and we got cute updates. We'll be rebooking with her!”
“Allison looked after our Goldendoodle for 4 days during our vacation. She did an amazing job, communicated very frequently with us throughout and followed all of our instructions to ensure Alex did not miss a beat in terms of his routine! Allison is caring and truly loves dogs!”
“Stephanie was fantastic watching our French Bulldog! We got a number of updates and she went above and beyond. We very much appreciated her and will be using her again!”
“Lindsey watched my girls for a few days and took excellent care of them. She would text me and send pictures of them throughout the stay. I came home to happy dogs and a clean house! Highly recommend Lindsey and will be using her again in the future!”
“We recently hired Krystal to look after our Labradors, Maddie and Piper. We are beyond pleased with the exceptional quality of service and care she provided. Krystal was always on-time, professional, friendly, and truly showed she cared about dogs. She didn’t hesitate to ask questions or provide updates. One of our dogs came down with a stomach ailment and she knew exactly how to address the problem and when we got home, our dog was pretty much back to normal. Both dogs took to her immediately and she treated them like her own. The house was absolutely spotless when we returned. Krystal proved to us how responsible and capable she is with our dogs and we will definitely be using her house sitting services again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our family members! I wish Rover would let us give her 6 stars out of 5.”

Cassidy was a wonderful sitter. She is a kind person and after meeting her I felt confident letting her watch my dogs. My dogs loved her and she gave them the attention they needed. She gave me updates about the dogs, which eased my mind away from home. I will definitely continue to hire her to watch my dogs for future vacations!

FAQs for House Sitting - Craig
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Craig on Rover is $41.73 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,739 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Craig. 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 Craig 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 Craig 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 Craig 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.
