“Jessica was fantastic! My dogs were so well loved the entire week. She sent photos and videos everyday and I could tell my dogs got exercised because they were dirty (just dust but good sign in my house). She also took great care of our house. We'll definitely use get again without any hesitation.”
“Violet was such an amazing sitter. She took care of Stella as if she was her own dog. Stella I know was shy at first but then loved hanging out with Violet. Violet followed my instructions very well and was very communicative about how Stella was doing. Definitely will book her again for upcoming trips!”
“Mariah was great to have, we had her watching our dog for 2 weeks, she was great at communicating with us and we never had to worry about our dog. We knew he was in great hands!”
“Lila is a five-star, consummate professional pet-sitter, both in preparing for and during her stay. We were more than confident in her ability to house-sit with four dogs, including an old deaf fella and a blind girl with diabetes that required twice-daily injections. She kept in constant contact with us and sent plenty of album-worthy photos. We hope she’s available the next time we’re headed for the hills. Thanks Lila!”
“My four legged furry babies love Sasha, so she must be doing something right! Sasha is easy to work with and very communicative. She is conscientious of our space, and tries to leave everything even better than when she arrived.”
“Stephanie and Dominic are amazing sitters! Highly recommended! They provide loving care to our greyhounds while we are away including affection, feedings and playtime. They are kind, punctual, flexible and great listeners and communicators. Our dogs love and trust them and so do we.”
“Moriah took great care of our two Scotties while we were in New Zealand. It snowed once or twice and our sidewalks were clear. Our dogs were in great shape too and she also sent us pictures of them. We would welcome her again!”
“Patty was wonderful! Her communication was great from scheduling the initial M&G, to checking in with us before the house sit, and throughout her stay. She left the house in perfect condition. Macie loved hanging out with her 💕”
About: I have a passion for animals of all kinds and love providing them with care, attention, and affection they deserve. I’m a pet parent to two dogs, two guinea pigs, a crested gecko and a betta fish. So I understand that every pet has certain needs and personalities. I’ll care for them as if they are my own. Pet sitting is my job so I’m available anytime throughout the day or night for your pets needs. I would love to help out anyway I can. I have a vehicle ready for any emergency’s. Im more than happy to send updated photos! I’m not boarding but I will travel for your pets needs.
“If you find a sitter on Rover who TRULY cares for and loves your animals… KEEP SUPPORTING THEM. Ryder is just amazing with our anxious dog and very attention-demanding cats. We are super grateful to have found him.”
“Olivia came through for me in an emergency. I was unable to meet her although I feel confident she did a wonderful job. I could tell she at my home as expected to feed my cat. From the outside camera I could tell my cat was responding well to her. I would 100% hire her again. Thank you for taking care of my home and my cat Olivia.”
“Lex was great! She was communicative and sent sweet photos of my kitty. I always do meet and greets in person before booking; she was very attentive and left me at ease. I will definitely have her sit in my home again.”
“Dani was fantastic! Communicative before and during her stay, provided updates about how our pup was doing (he's a puppy and this was our first time away from him), and sent photos. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Maja was an absolute gem and it was obvious by some of the pix she sent that my fur balls were perfectly content while I was gone. She sent updates and made me feel comfortable that she was there. She’ll be my go-to sitter when she’s available”
“Taylor and Luke were fantastic! My 50 pound dog has fear based aggression issues while outside (triggers include dogs, people, bikes, scooters...) and is quite the handful (growls lunges, freaks out at triggers) when not in the comfort of her home. They did an amazing job with her, sent me lots of updates and photos and left my place super clean. They also had to give her pills daily. Our meet and greet went really well and I could tell my pup loved them and I was confident they would be able to handle her while I was out of the country and not always reachable. I would 100% recommend!”

Daniela did an excellent job watching our dog Rascal, our home, and my garden while we were gone for a week. She even took care of the sheets she stayed in and put our trash out on trash day! She took excellent care of our fur baby and was highly communicative. I will sing her praises from the rooftops!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dacono on Rover is $49.95 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 9,149 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dacono. 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 Dacono 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 Dacono 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 Dacono 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.
