“Cady was so great with our animals. Cady was attentive and had great attention to detail. Definitely went above and beyond when watching out pets and took care of them as we would. Will use for future sitting needs for sure.”
“Tammy was amazing! She was a wonderful caregiver for Rocky and Isabella! This is the first time we’ve left our pups and I was nervous about how they would respond to someone new. With Tammy, there was no need to worry at all. She was wonderful with our dogs and they just loved her. She’s a very caring person and the pups snuggled right up and bonded with her. Tammy sent us many daily pictures and updates throughout her stay. We always knew exactly what was happening at home and that the dogs were happy and thriving. That knowledge allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our trip! She took wonderful care of our home as well. We will definitely be using Tammy for all our trips from now on.”
“I booked Gabe, since he is in my neighborhood, and I would readily book him again! He was very courteous and went above and beyond. He updated me frequently with photos of my pets, which made me feel more secure, and he made sure to communicate regularly. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else.”
“We are thrilled with the live and care Mika and Koji provided to our Pekingese George. They sent us pictures daily and kept us posted as to how he was doing. He can be a bit spicy and isn’t always cooperative with taking his pills but they won him over! As others noted we came home to a cleaner condo than we left! We would definitely reach out to them again if the need arises.”
“I highly recommend Rylie to take care of your pets. She is easy to work with and so sweet and kind. I could tell instantly that she has a natural love for animals, and that they love her back. She kept me updated with messages and pictures daily during the week she stayed at my house with my dog and cat. I came home to happy pets and a clean house. She definitely over exceeded my expectations, and I would have her watch my pets again in a heartbeat.”
“We had Mallory stay with our dogs at our house and she did an excellent job! She was great with communication, very respectful of our home, and of course very loving and caring to our dogs. We would definitely have her watch them again.”
“Megan was amazing! She was so understanding of my reactive dog’s quirks and needs. She put him at ease and made friends with him quickly! She me pics and updates and I was comfortable knowing my dogs were in good hands while I was away. I’d definitely book with her again!”
About: I've had dogs in my family since I was a baby; I grew up around them and my love for them grew. I care deeply for my own dogs, and I'm always excited to meet a new four legged friend. I regularly petsit for my family, a multitude of dogs, cats, and aquatic creatures. My schedule is currently very flexible; I make time for a walk and training my own dog every day and I sometimes bring him with me when running errands. I love snuggling and hanging out with all kinds of pets, letting them get comfortable with me in their space and touching them at their own pace.
“Skyler is top notch. Right from the start, communication was great. Unfortunately my dog decided to be a big jack@$$. He acted up right as I was packing to leave but petting on my bed. He ended up nipping Skylar and being a grumpface, making her job more difficult. She handled it like a pro and even given the option to finish the stay, with minor adjustments she gladly continued. I very much appreciated her commitment. 5 stars from me!”
“Madison is fantastic! She took such good care of my pack! She made sure everyone ate, even though my Andy is scared to eat around people he isn’t very familiar with!! I will have Madison watch my boys every time we need a sitter!! Plus she left the house in immaculate shape - I couldn’t tell she was here!!”
“Janette did a fantastic job house and pet sitting for us. She made sure to send pictures and updates multiple times a day. She treated our dogs very well, they were both very happy with her! I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again when needed.”
About: I grew up working on a farm! Not only am I familiar with training puppies and caring for cats, I also know my way around a barn. I have time in the early mornings and evenings to visit your pets! I am also able to house sit and provide daily exercise to any extent you need! I love to go on walks and adventuring in parks. But I also love just sitting on the couch with a dog or cat :) I am flexible and ready to meet whatever your pet needs!
“Katarina was an amazing sitter for Zuko. She was incredibly accommodating, gave me continuous updates on Zuko, and went above and beyond with her care. Zuko ended up having some tummy issues and Katarina immediately updated me on the problem and even picked up his prescription from the vet on my behalf. She took great care of the home and was always available to help where she could while I was away. I would 100% book her services again and I am incredibly grateful for her care. Thank you so much Katarina!”
“Megan did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Paco! She kept me updated throughout the stay with regular pictures and messages, which really gave me peace of mind. I could tell Paco was happy and well cared for. I recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Jade is a wonderful dog sitter. She takes great care of our dogs when we are away and they adore her. She is always a great communicator and we never have to worry about leaving them. We look forward to using her in the future. :)”
“Morgan did a great job getting odins energy levels down and checking in throughout the day. She clearly has a love a for animals and the ability to care for my high energy husky. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for good dog care.”
“Eric was able to jump in fairly last minute to watch our girls when other accommodations fell through. Eric was a great communicator, logistics were easy and our girls had a great day with Eric. We are super thankful!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Custer
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Custer on Rover is $36.75 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 588 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Custer. 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 Custer 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 Custer 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 Custer 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.
