“We always enjoy having Allea house sit for our pets. She provides the perfect amount of updates, and keeps the space just the way we left it. We have always felt we can trust her and have peace of mind while we are out of town! Thank you so much for watching Teddy, Quimchee, and the frogs!”
“Elena was great, very communicative and took good care of my 3 labs, they seemed happy and content when we arrived home. House looked great too. Will hire Elena again, highly recommend!”
“Gabrielle was wonderful while my husband and I were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and incredibly patient with our cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with guests. She was also very understanding of our dog Teddy’s anxiety and took great care of him, even when he had a few anxious accidents. Our home was exactly as we left it, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would be happy to have her watch our pets again!”
“Michelle was fantastic and I will absolutely be rebooking! My animals loved them and I was kept in the loop with pictures and updates throughout my leave! Very kind and detail oriented and a fantastic communicator!”
“Louis was a fantastic pet sitter! Our 3 girls were happy, healthy, and very well played with. Our house was clean, as Louis washed all the dishes he used. He watered my plants and even left a plant that needed a home behind for me! He was timely with communication and punctual with feeding, and he followed directions perfectly. He is the first person I will ask for pet sitting in the future! I highly recommend Louis and his services.”
“Ebony was such a trooper when she stayed with our pup while we were getting married. Everything that could have gone wrong did, including washing machine floods, huge storms and power outages. We can home to a clean house and happy doggy. We are so grateful that Obi was well taken care of and Ebony seemed un-phased by all the craziness going on. She was easy to get in touch with and did a great job keeping us updated. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks again Ebony!”
“Anna was a wonderful cat sitter for our cat, Yuki, while we were away for a week. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat who had clearly been well cared for and enjoyed Anna’s company—she cuddled with her, which is always good to see! Anna was attentive, responsible, and left our home in excellent condition. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy sitter.”
“Kristen cared for my for and my 2 cats (one with separation anxiety issues) for 6 days. She was pretty darn nice about the cat problems and sent photos and updates regularly. She’s an absolute delight and I will call on her help again. I’ve already recommended her to several of my friends.”
“Patricia took incredible care of our home abd our pup Zoe. Zoe has medication and behavioral needs and Patricia took it all in stride. Communication was great and she really goes the extra mile with your pet while you are away. 10/10”
“Sandra house sat for us over a long weekend and took great care of our home and our two cats and dog. She checked in a few times to let us know things were going well and I appreciated that. She left our home very clean. We look forward to booking with Sandra again!”
“Alyssa did a great job taking care of my dog while I was gone! I got pictures, updates, and she even went to get him a new leash because his snapped, so that my boy could still enjoy his walks while I was gone! She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to care for your pets. 😊”
About: Here’s some Info about me: I am 18, graduated class of 2025, currently just trying to start my life and figure out my goals and ambitions. I’ve grown up around all sorts of animals, also including farm animals and reptiles, I have also helped facilitate 3 Labrador litters. Caring for animals is a huge passion of mine so I am grateful to have the opportunity to spend my time doing this. I am super flexible and under standing. I’m currently working part time in the evenings. I have weekends off. I sometimes work Saturday but I will never double book if I know it won’t work with my schedule, the pets in my care are always my first priority. I love to stay active, so taking animals outside on walks and runs is also enjoyable for me if that’s what your pet needs, I’m super accommodating aswell.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I’ve owned and cared for animals of all types ranging from reptiles to large livestock. I have experience training puppies as well as working on smaller things like simple manners and attentiveness. I’ve have past job history working at a vet based boarding facility and am comfortable and knowledgeable on give meds and handling dogs when away from their people. I am available for drop in visits and dog walking 7 days a week! Monday through Friday I am available after 1pm, weekends I’m open all day for your furry friends! I treat all clients animals as if they were my own. They are cared for very well while clients are gone away from the home. Lots of love, play time, and just hanging out. If wanted by clients, dogs are regularly walked and exercised (I’m a hiker so am happy to take them to do outdoor hikes as well) along with regular care as if their parents never even left. I try to keep a relatively realistic schedule and life for animals while parents are gone so that they don’t have much stress when parents are away.
“Ashley watched my elderly dog for 5 nights on our first booking and I came home to a happy and spoiled pup, a clean house, mail on the kitchen table… everything as I would hope. I received lots of pictures and videos and I can just tell my dog was so well cared for. Feeling really thankful and I’ll definitely be hiring Ashley again in the future.”
“Grace was respectful and took great care of our home and pets. Even our young puppy she worked with to keep up the potty training g we’ve been working on. Would hire her anytime.”
“One of the kindest and sweetest pet sitters I’ve experienced! Tiffany is fantastic and did a wonderful job with Bentley. She kept me updated daily with messages and pictures and it put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my trip. Would 100% recommend Tiffany and I will definitely be using her every time!”
“Summer is incredibly wonderful with both my pups and the house when sitting for me. She communicates efficiently and effectively and the dogs and I feel lucky to have her sit the pups!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Dardanelles
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dardanelles on Rover is $85 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 268 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dardanelles. 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 Dardanelles 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 Dardanelles 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 Dardanelles 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.
