“We selected Janet for the first time using Rover, and we got lucky! She was absolutely great with the dogs (our shyer dog seemed to get comfortable with her very quickly), and she left the house in great condition. She sent regular updates and pictures of the dogs. Highly recommend using Janet to watch your dogs!”
“Taryn house sat for five days while I was on an island with no cell service. She handled everything well, administered his medications, and managed his separation anxiety. And, the house was left in great order. I would definitely use her as a house sitter again.”
“Brogan did an excellent of letting me know how my dog was doing each of the days that we were gone. Bonus that I got picture updates too! She left the house in great shape and I will happily rebook her.”
“Celeste was absolutely amazing with our fur baby Teddy. He required medication twice a day, and she was able to provide him with that. She sent me pictures and let me know what was going on and it meant the world to me. I would absolutely recommend her if you want to have a very responsible, sweet and caring young lady to take care of your fur babies!!”
“Laura was a fantastic house sitter! She was friendly, communicative, and responsible. I would 100% book with her again, and recommend her to anyone else looking for pet care services.”
“Emma is amazing! I was so nervous leaving my anxious dog for vacation. Emma took care of three of my dogs and gave me daily updates and photos. She took great care of them. They loved having her stay with them. She even bought them bones, which was so sweet. Finally, she went above and beyond and cleaned my house and linens as well! I can’t wait to have her back next month for my next vacation. I’m definitely not nervous for this one!”
About: Hi, I’m Bailey! 😄 I’ve had pets my whole life and have experience caring for dogs with extra needs, including daily insulin and neurological conditions. I currently have two cats, Mochi & Boba, and a dog, Charlie. Charlie loves making new doggie friends and would be happy to join on walks/drop ins if your dog is friendly, but no worries if they prefer solo time! I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, a trip to the park, or just some extra love and attention, I’m happy to give your dog the care they need! ❤️ I’m currently working part time so I’m pretty flexible! I’m most flexible on the weekends & evenings, but I’m happy to work with your schedule and find a time that works best for you & your pet. I’ll come to your home to check on, care for, and love on your fur babies! I will make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime while you’re away.
“Victoria house sat for my 2 chihuahua's for 5 days, she kept me updated with pictures and videos while I was gone and my house was just as clean when I came back as I left it. Will definitely call her again for sitting!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and honestly can’t remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by pets. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I regularly dog sit for friends and family, and I genuinely love it. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I show up with patience, energy, and a lot of love. I take pet care seriously, but I also truly enjoy it. Being around animals is my happy place. I probably like them more than humans, but I’ll let your pet be the judge of that. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m typically home and have a flexible schedule. I’m usually out for a couple hours most days, but otherwise I’m around and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. On weekends I’m also fairly flexible and either at home or doing low-key activities, so I can adjust easily to the needs of each pet. I enjoy making pet care a consistent part of my routine and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care based on each pet’s needs and comfort level. In my home, I keep things very relaxed with lots of supervision, cuddle time, potty breaks, playtime, and regular outdoor walks on a leash. I also make sure pets are fed on schedule and always have fresh water. In a client’s home, I prefer to focus on walks and potty breaks or quick check-ins depending on what’s needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while sticking closely to their normal routine.
About: I have taken care of dogs for my friends for many years, as well as having dogs for most of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages. I have experience in medication dispensing. Senior care experience. I work from my home so I am available to give meals and potty breaks continuously throughout the day. I have a very flexible schedule. My back yard is fenced in.I will not sit pitbulls or other aggressive breeds. On days where the temp is hot, I will take dogs out once an hour for just 10 minutes to avoid heat related illness. Also on hot days, water bowls will be in each room that a dog chooses to be in. During the winter I have pee pads outside for the comfort and safety of a dog's feet.
“Kessia is great! She is very prompt to respond and updated us with pictures. Clearly our animals loved her as they were always right next to if not sitting on her! Had her do a one night stay and will have her back when we go on vacation!”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for most of my life and grew up in a home where animals were always part of the family. Throughout my childhood, we always had both a dog and a cat, which gave me the opportunity to understand and support pets through all stages of their lives. Being raised around animals has brought me so much joy, and I truly love spending time with them, whether that’s playing, going for walks, or simply giving them attention and affection. In addition, I have three years of experience walking dogs, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of different temperaments and needs. If you choose me to care for your pet, I promise to treat them with the same love and attention I would give my own, and to care for them to the very best of my abilities. I'm currently a student and work a part-time job; however, I usually have 2-hour gaps in my day. This is to accommodate time to take your pet out to potty, go for walks, or just have some playtime. Then after 3 pm I am free during the evenings. I’m unable to host pets in my own home; however, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and ensure your pet receives the same love, care, and attention I would give my own.
About: I love dogs and have two of my own - a little man named Sid and big golden named Ruby. Everyone in my family has a dog as well so I am very used to being around pets. I am an active person and would love to walk, run with, or care for your dog! I work 2 days a week and I am flexible on weekends, so just let me know what you're thinking! We have two kids at home, 3 and under, so must be okay with sweet kiddos. I live in home with a big fenced in yard which is perfect for dogs. I have a small dog and large dog who get along very well with other dogs. They get super playful around other dogs, so your dog would surely have a fun time and get all his/her energy out! I am working part-time and home with my babies the other days, allowing a lot of flexibility with caring for your pet. We have some occasional things planned for weekends but are otherwise pretty open! I have a fenced in, nice yard for dogs to play and run in. We live in a great walking neighborhood. We have two dogs to keep your fur baby company as well as two young children. Animals must be kid-friendly for our home!
About: I have always taken care of many different types of pets in my home. I have helped with senior dogs who need medicine or insulin shots. I have also fostered and have experience with all types of animals, such as; a full litter of kittens, bunnies, and dogs of all sizes. I work until 4pm every day and have random weekdays off and I always have Sundays off. I am very flexible and can adapt to your schedules needs. I have a fenced in backyard and have lots of friendly animals. They also all have their own specific areas if they need to be quarantined for any reason. I can also read animals body languages for when they may need some space or more direct attention.
“Olivia did a fantastic job looking after our pets and house while we were away for a week and a half. She treated our babies like they were her own and we couldn’t be happier. It’s so nice knowing they are in good hands while we were away. It certainly helped us enjoy our vacation so much more! She sent pictures and videos and it was clear that the dogs were having the best time and were really enjoying their time with her. All the updates were greatly appreciated! I was worried the dogs wouldn’t want us coming back 😉 I will absolutely be using Olivia for future pet sitting needs. Thanks Olivia!!”

Korah was a wonderful dog sitter- being a great substitute while Abby’s people were gone. We came home to a very relaxed dog, for which we were grateful for. Korah communicated well and was someone you can feel comfortable with in your home. I’d recommend her highly.
Taryn house sat for five days while I was on an island with no cell service. She handled everything well, administered his medications, and managed his separation anxiety. And, the house was left in great order. I would definitely use her as a house sitter again.
Grace is excellent! Very responsive and prompt. She quickly set up a meet and greet to meet my dog. She immediately greeted him and gave him attention, followed up by questions about his eating, sleeping and walking schedule. While I was away, she sent me updates and photos. I was very impressed by her attention to detail and left with everything in order.
Celeste was great!!! She came over before the date needed to get the dogs familiar with her and to get instructions so we didn't need to worry about that when we were leaving for our trip. She sent us pictures of our beloved Phoebe and Rudy putting us at ease that everything was going great so we could enjoy our trip without worry! When we got back to the house it was neat and clean and our dogs were happy! We highly recommend Rover and especially Celeste to take care of your pets/house when needed, you won't be disappointed! Very thankful, Scott & Geri
Kacy did a phenomenal job caring for my two dogs while my son and I were out of town. She was extremely polite, respectful, and bonded with my dogs immediately. I highly recommend Kacy to anyone looking for a sitter that is dependable, will prioritize your dogs, and give them all the love they deserve. A job well done and I look forward to booking Kacy again. Thank you, Jason
Sanora was fantastic! She housesat for my dog and two cats for a long weekend. During the stay she was communicative and let me know how things were going. She also handled a very last minute change in feeding instructions with ease. When I got home, everyone was happy and healthy and the house was in perfect condition :) I would absolutely rebook with Sanora!
Cara is incredible. This was the first time I've ever left my puppy and I was nervous, but Cara made it so easy. She is a natural with dogs, caring and sweet. She not only provides walks and basic care, she went above and beyond. She did art with him, she did puzzles with him, she spent so much time making him feel safe and loved. I could not recommend her higher. She is the best choice.

FAQs for House Sitting - Eau Claire
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Eau Claire on Rover is $40 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 128 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eau Claire. 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 Eau Claire 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 Eau Claire 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 Eau Claire 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
