“Alyssa stayed the weekend with my labs at my house and I am so grateful for her help and respect of my home/schedule with the labs. She sent some pics to update me on the pups and was a great communicator. Came home to a house as clean as I left it and very happy labs. Would definitely recommend!”
“Abram cared for our pups and house like they were his own. He clarified care to ensure he did things like our labs were used to and was very respectful. I felt so reassured with him at my house while I was out of town! I highly recommend Abram’s services and will be utilizing his care again in the future 🙌🐾”
“Stella and Josh were amazing dog sitters! The dogs loved them and they sent so many cute pictures of their time together. They were reliable and dependable and very good communicators with any questions. We would hire them again, hands down!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I can remember. Through high school, dog sitting was my career, and I grew up showing animals in 4-H. I am well versed in caring for sick animals at the home level (though I am pre-vet), and have skill with everything from grooming to vaccinating. I love being active and am up for any activities your pet loves! I work part time but my job is very flexible and only two to four hours at a time. I take classes at OSU but when I am taking classes, I can do homework anywhere as long as there is WiFi :). I don’t have any pets living with me currently, but am willing to care for pets in my home if need be. I am willing to follow any schedule your pet is used to so they feel normalcy while you’re away. If they do stay in my home, I have a nice sized yard which is landscaped weekly for them to run in and a clean, minimal house without things to accidentally chew or get into.
“Augusta was fabulous! She took excellent care of our mini golden doodle, Bailey, while we were away. She communicated frequently, took Bailey for regular walks and sent several photos of our sweet dog. She also gave Bailey lots of love and belly rubs, which Bailey absolutely loves! Augusta is a sweet, responsible young woman and we would highly recommend her! We would absolutely love for her to watch Bailey again if she is available and her schedule permits!”
“I've got a special needs senior citizen pup and a rambunctious young pup Lara navigated them beautifully. This morning (my first morning back) my little girl ran straight to the spare room and stood at the door looking for her new friend. Super happy mama here! 1000/10 totally recommend!”
About: I've worked with cheetahs, so I can work with your cat who thinks they are a cheetah too! I have volunteered at a humane society, working in the spay-and-neuter clinic and taking care of animals after the procedures. I have also dog-walked and taken photos for their website, so you will definitely get some cute photos of your pets when they are with me! I have also trained animals as large as a lion and as small as a Chihuahua. My major is animal-focused, and I used to own pets myself. I currently go to Oregon State University 3 days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I am available all days as I come home between classes on the days I have school. I have a yard and I live close to the park so I'd love to take your dog to the park if arranged in advanced! I also have calmer areas of the house and more active areas of the house if needed.
About: Hello, I love meeting new animals and visiting the pets in the animal shelter! I have had a puppy and 3 cats growing up and would love to work for you! I am currently able to work in the mornings and evenings everyday. I am a college student who misses her pet at home and considers pets like family. I have a cat and love my significant others dog like my own. I love animals like family and miss mine from home since I am currently living at college.
“Yulya provided good updates and pictures of our Luna girl while we were away. We knew Luna was in good hands and she treated our home with respect, leaving it clean and tidy for our return. I would definitely use Yulya again!”
“Michael is an incredibly reliable and respectful pet sitter! He always leaves my place sparkling and spends a ton of time with my boy Apollo. He is also incredibly knowledgeable thanks to his experience working in a vet clinic. I will always recommend Michael!”
“Hannah was great with Rooney. She was exactly on time for our meet and greet, she was friendly, and comfortable with a crazy lab, she checked in when asked, and offered to work him out extra on the last day. Super sweet, pursuing medicine, and highly responsible.”
“This was my first Pet Sitter experience with Bradley and what I think stands out the most to me about Bradley is that he genuinely cared about and for our dog, Huxley, while we were away. I know a lot of people say that they love animals, but you could see the authenticity in Bradley as he greeted and played with Huxley. I highly recommend Bradley”
“McKenzie was so amazing! She played fetch my Skye multiple times in the day, sent photos all day long, and helped out with giving Skye her AM pills. Skye is so sad she’s gone, but we’re so happy we now have an amazing dog sitter. Highly recommend her for all your bubba needs :)”
“Elizabeth is very responsive. She took great care of my nervous pup and cat on short notice. She left the house cleaner than it was when she arrived, I think! We've already booked our next sit with Elizabeth and I look forward to having great peace of mind while we are gone.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. Some of the pets I have had included dogs, cats, bunnies, lizards, fish and more! I have had a lot of experience taking care of my family members and friends pets. I have also learned a lot of skills from a trained dog care professional. I am at home almost all of the time so I can spend plenty of time with any pets that I am watching, I can watch pets any day of the week and will take dogs on daily walks. I have a fenced back yard so dogs can spend plenty of time in the sun. I also will take dogs on daily walks and play with them plenty. I can also watch cats in clients homes and will be sure to give them lots of attention and play time to keep them company.
About: From puppies and kittens to beloved seniors, I am an OSU graduate passionate about providing the best care for your pets. I have been working as a veterinary assistant for 5 years, and providing animal care professionally for 6. I hold Fear Free and CPR certifications. I am skilled in administering oral and injectable medications, handling emergency situations, and I am also experienced in providing care for a variety of exotics. Currently my availability is pretty flexible for drop-in visits or dog walking! I also offer over-night stays for pets that need additional comfort or care. With photo updates, I bring exceptional animal care services directly to your home in order to best support the happiness and comfort of your pet.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for as long as I can remember, but what sets me apart for the most part is my experience. I volunteered at Austin Pets Alive for about four years working with reactive dogs. Then I started work as a kennel tech at a boarding facility run by a veterinarian. Now, after earning my degree in Animal Behavior, I work at a veterinary office. This means not only am I trained in behavioral problems but I am very well versed in medical and physical problems as well. I have dealt with countless issues such as seizures, diabetes, paralysis, even cancer treatment. This makes me prepared for every dog that comes my way, and an ability to handle situations no matter the breed, size, or condition the dog is in. I work Monday-Thursday 8-5 but have a lunch break and will be able to check in with animals during the day. Then weekends I am always free. I have heavy emphasis on mental stimulation for dogs, specifically working breeds and higher energy dogs. I’m really good at coming up with new puzzles and activities for dogs to do , so that they feel fully satisfied by the days end. I’m very active myself , so you’ll often find me with a dog on a hiking trail or down at Zilker park. This translates very well if you have a pup who just needs someone to run with them, and treat them to a pupsicle when they are all tuckered out!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Dry Creek is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dry Creek
Abram is such a fantastic pet sitter. My partner and I were nervous as we’ve never had a pet sitter that stayed in our home before but Abram made us feel comfortable very early on. He is great at communication, respectful, and went above and beyond for our pets while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. His small dog Franky is well behaved and got along great with our dog Theo and even our cat Winnie. When we came home our house was clean, and our pets were happy and well cared for. We will certainly be booking with Abram again in the future.
We are officially repeat clients of Rosie's and I would not hesitate using her in the future. She is very responsive, gives regular, thorough updates and her genuine care for my dogs is clear. I'm a worrier, and I feel very reassured by her attention to detail and desire to get things right. Thank you, Rosie for another great visit. The dogs will miss you until next time.
I booked Avery for an extended stay to watch my two cats, one of them requires some extra maintenance due to neurological issues, and she did great! Avery provided photos, and it was clear both my cats had warmed up to her. Communication was clear and consistent when it was needed! Not only was Avery great with the cats, but my house was left in great condition. Returning from travel is always stressful, but I walked into an absolutely spotless home, which really helped. Would highly recommend Avery 😌 and will definitely look to book her again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Dry Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Dry Creek is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 914 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dry Creek. 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 Dry Creek 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 Dry Creek 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 Dry Creek 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
