“Patty is great. We use her for home sitting with our pup and not only does she care so well for our pup, you can’t even tell her she’s been here when you leave. She is very respectful of our space. Our dog loves her too!”
“Lisa was very responsive before and during my booking. She sent pics and kept me updated. She even powered through a tornado warning and got all of our fur-babies to safety.”
“I cannot recommend Jason enough as a dog sitter! From the moment we met, he made me feel completely comfortable leaving Dax in his care. Jason was incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure both Dax and I had peace of mind. He kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, which showed just how much Dax loved his time with Jason—especially all the playtime! It's clear Jason truly cares about the dogs he watches. If you're looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely kind, Jason is your person. Dax and I are so grateful for him!”
“Alyssa did a great job with our anxious doggies! They seemed very content when we came back from our trip which is a testament to how well she did with them and how comfortable they were with her. We will definitely look to her in the future!”
“Gabriela was wonderful! Her response time was very prompt from the beginning. She sent many pictures while we were away and followed instructions for our pup’s care to a T! We also came home to find the house just the way we left it. Would definitely recommend her and reach out again if we are ever in need of care for our sweet Mabel!”
“Adrienne did an absolutely wonderful job with our boys. We got constant updates and lots of photos. She was fantastic with communication. She asked all the lquestions that show just how much she cares and wants to make sure that not only we, but our fur babies, were as comfortable and as well taken care of as possible. It was such a relief knowing our boys were being so well loved and attended to.”
“Lilly was so great! She kept me updated with photos and stayed responsive throughout the stay. She left my home as she found it and even took the trash out! There was a crazy storm during her stay and she assured me the pups were safe and well cared for. Would love to use Lilly again!”
“Olivia has been consistently fantastic to work with in caring for our pets for both short and long duration (less than a day/visits up to two weeks staying in home). Highest recommendation!”
“Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!”
“Kaitlin is phenomenal! She took excellent care of our fur babies while we were traveling. She followed instructions and reached out with extra considerations. We felt secure knowing our pups (and home) were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Jennifer was so good with my dogs! I felt very comfortable with her staying with them. We already have her scheduled for our next trip. 🙂 I would definitely recommend her!!!”
“Raelee was incredible with Ollie. Early the first day he was cuddled up next to her and he normally doesn't like other people in his house. I got lots of pictures that showed how happy he was. When we got back, you couldn't even tell someone else had been here. I will definitely use her again!”
“Sydney was a wonderful house/pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. I was very comfortable knowing our pets were well taken care of and she took better care of our home than we do 😂”
“We have had multiple dog sitters stay at our house since moving to KC a few years ago, Rhonda is our absolute favorite! Our dogs are so happy everytime we get back and the house is always exactly how we left it.”
“Karen has watched our dog Evie (and our home) several times now, and she is absolutely wonderful. She takes great care of Evie every single time, gives consistent updates, and is always thoughtful about not leaving her alone for long stretches. We always come home to a happy dog and a tidy house. It’s such a relief knowing Evie is safe, loved, and well-cared for while we’re away. We highly recommend Karen!”
“Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Ectonville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ectonville on Rover is $41.63 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 1,271 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ectonville. 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 Ectonville 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 Ectonville 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 Ectonville 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 with handling special pet needs in Ectonville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
