“Jason did an amazing job house sitting my two large dogs for 3 nights. He was very responsive, he kept us updated with cute photos and videos, and my dogs clearly loved him. We returned to a clean home with happy animals. I absolutely recommend Jason for house sitting and we’ve already booked with him again.”
“Morgan is just amazing. Communicating was great back and forth, even when our flight plans had to change. She took excellent care of our doggies and our house. She was here with the dogs for the vast majority of the day, which was important to me. She is my go-to sitter going forward.”
“Sonja is incredible at what she does!…. She dropped in on my 2 x kittens and sent me so many pictures and made fortresses for them!. They were so happy when I got home. Sonja came last minute and she always put my mind at ease. I will use her now permanently and I can’t reccomend her high enough”
“Taylor has all the qualities of a 5 star Rover sitter. First and foremost she gives your animal the love and attention it needs. She sends daily pics and videos letting you know how their day is going. She stayed in my house for a week and when I came home it was just as clean as when I left. But the best part of all was that it was apparent my dog was happy having her here and showed no sign of stress. I highly recommend Taylor and have already booked her for a second visit.”
“Thank you Tom for watching the pup! Tom did a great job of sending reports and pictures. Will book again with Tom. I do recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter! Wholesome guy”
“We can’t say enough good things about Polina! From the initial meet & greet, we felt completely at ease leaving Scoot and Maisie in her care. She took amazing care of our dogs, keeping up with their exercise and routines perfectly, and it was clear the pups felt loved. Her daily photos and updates made our trip relaxing because we knew our fur babies were being well cared for! Not only is she great with dogs, but she’s also a considerate house guest—we came home to a clean house and relaxed pups. She even went above and beyond by staying extra time when we ran late. Five stars isn't enough!”
“Blake watched our dogs and house for over two weeks while we were out of the country. He did an amazing job looking after our dogs and our house as well. The house was perfectly clean when we returned and our dogs were in great shape! Can't recommend him enough.”
“Erica was a wonderful sitter for Bruno! She was extremely communicative throughout the week and sent us pictures of Bruno every day, which we were extremely appreciative of. She also left our house very clean. We will definitely reach out to Erica again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Ion was very good with our Louie! He was communicative and kept us updated with pictures of their adventures. It’s not uncommon for Louie to stop eating his food. Ion noticed this and made him a doggie pizza to encourage him to eat and it worked! Louie loves to see Ion and is always happy in his company. Louie is an anxious dog but seems happy and content with Ion. He leaves our home clean and just the way we left it. We would recommend his services to anyone!”
“Loren is so caring with our dog and cat and always sends great pictures to show they’re having a good time. Very communicative and prompt. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“I couldn’t even imagine a better pet-sitter! She checked in several times of day to let me know how my dogs and cat were doing, sent lots of pics and videos, and took the best care of them! Thank you so much!!!”
“We were a bit nervous having never used Rover before, but so glad we found Keonia and highly recommended her! Our dog is definitely a creature of habit and very accustomed to his routine, so it was very nice to have somebody who could come stay with him. Keonia was extremely responsive, proactively communicated, and sent lots of pictures to help ease our minds and give us comfort that he was being well taken care of. We will be checking to see if Keonia is available the next time we need a sitter!”
“Emily saved us and is truly AWESOME! She rearranged her schedule to help us in an emergency situation. We were immediately comforted when showed us photos of just how happy Ben was with her :) You can entrust your dog with Emily.She goes above and beyond to make your dog feel like he's still with family. We HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Brianna and Sam were terrific from start to finish! Our two goldendoodle pups had a great time getting lots of head rubs, retrieving balls, and playing tug-of-war in the back yard. Brianna sent pics and updates daily, which were much appreciated! Her communication was excellent and it was great to go away for over a week and feel certain our home and the pups were in good hands.”
“Baylee did a good job house sitting my Senior dogs... Gave me updates while I was away and left the house in good order. She had something come up on the last night and couldn't stay, but still got the dogs fed. After we communicated about her schedule change she refunded the difference for the booking to make sure I was happy. I thought that was very professional, and appreciated!”
“Ted loved her and her family right away and was excited to go back for his first stay after their meetup! She was so sweet with him and sent me photos and updates!”
“Christie was awesome! She was very communicative, respectful of our space and gave Mia so much love and attention. Mia was happy and comfortable with her, we look forward to rebooking! 💕”

From the first "Meet and Greet" our pup Edei went right up to Christie wagging her tail! I knew it was a good match! We will definitely have Christie in our regular pool of special folks to care for Edei. We were very happy to have Christie available to stay with Edei.
Erica was a wonderful sitter for Bruno! She was extremely communicative throughout the week and sent us pictures of Bruno every day, which we were extremely appreciative of. She also left our house very clean. We will definitely reach out to Erica again for future dog sitting needs!
Ashley was absolutely wonderful with our dog! ❤️ We felt completely comfortable having her stay at our home and care for our dog while we were away. She was so loving, attentive, responsible, and thoughtful. She made sure our dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for, while also keeping us updated so we never had to worry. Knowing our dog could stay in the comfort of her own home with someone as caring as Ashley gave us such peace of mind. Thank you so much, Ashley, for taking such amazing care of our girl. We truly appreciate you and would absolutely trust you with her again. We highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter!
Addison was amazing with Butters! She made him feel very comfortable and made sure he was well cared for while we were away. She was always very prompt with her responses and regularly sent us photos and videos, which we really appreciated. She also left the house very clean and well taken care of. We felt completely at ease knowing Butters was in good hands. I would 100% book with Addison again and highly recommend her!
Liz was perfect with Henree. She updated su with photos. She contacted us because he was off his food and immediately tried adding cottage cheese as I suggested and everything was fine. She is very good with animals and has a genuine love for them. Highly recommended.
Calli has stayed with our 2 dogs and 1 cat a few a times now. Our girls are always happy when we get home and it’s clear they’ve been well cared for. Calli is communicative and thorough about their care, and she always leaves our home spotless. We’re so grateful to have found her!
Riley is the best dog sitter! She watched our two 1yo Great Dane pups and took such excellent care of them and loved on them as we do. And our dogs LOVED Milo and having another dog in their pack! Riley also took care of our home and helped clean up after a devastating hail storm. She went above and beyond for our dogs and our home!
Monique is 11/10 - she was so thoughtful and kind to our kitties, and incredibly thorough in her after-sit notes which we absolutely loved reading! Our house was so clean like nobody was here in the first place, it made coming home feel way less stressful. Most importantly our girls loved her, even our shy kitty 🖤 Monique thank you SO much for being amazing, and treating our girls just how we would. You are literally THE BEST 🖤
Saya was so great with Chester! How can I tell? Because Chester wasn't over-clingy when I got home! Saya send me a photo a day, which always keeps a pet mom feeling secure. He also gave Chester his insulin shots, twice a day. Chester would love for Saya to come back next time!
Isabella is my go-to kitty-sitter. I completely trust her with my 2 cats. Even my ultra-shy guy has decided she’s alright - she’s wooed him into trusting her. Which is nearly unheard of, for him. She went above and beyond for me this last trip when my apartment maintenance team decided to replace my fridge on her first evening here. She was so helpful and laid-back about it, even though I’m pretty sure she ended up doing most of the work to get the old fridge cleared out, magnets taken off, etc. Highly, highly recommend her. Just don’t take her away from me when I need her next in the fall! Ha. :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Dove Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dove Valley on Rover is $51.36 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,850 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dove Valley. 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 Dove Valley 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 Dove Valley 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 Dove Valley 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.
