“Monica did great job with our animals. She kept us informed about our pets, sent us lots of pictures, and asked questions when needed. Additionally, she respected our home. We will use her again in the future and highly recommend her to others looking for pet care.”
“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!”
“Kaylee was wonderful! First time using her and we have zero complaints. She even took care of our chickens, got their eggs each day, and loved on our old pupper. Recommend to anyone!”
“Olivia had always been very reliable and respectful. She loves our pets and takes very good care of them. It is comforting to know that I don’t need to worry about them while I am away. We have used her for drop in visits for our cat, and this time we used her house sitting services since we adopted a dog. We highly recommend her.”
“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!!!”
“Helen is just wonderful and I am so grateful to have found her! She took great care of our two fur babies as well as our house for 10 days. We came back to a clean house and happy dogs. Helen was excellent at providing updates and responding to any messages I sent in a timely manner. I never felt uneasy with our fur babies being in her care. It was a great feeling to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing our babies and home were being looked after and taken care of. I highly recommend and will be a repeat client. Thanks Helen!”
“Raelee is amazing, my pups absolutely adore her. She was extremely attentive and caring. I will absolutely be booking her for every and all future trips we take. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that is needing any care for their fur babies.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a teen. Family, friends, and neighbors can count on me to walk, feed, bathe, & any other extra care their pets need. I’ve taken classes for basic dog training & behaviors. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pup! I’m available on week days & most weekends. I’m flexible & can work with your schedule. I can do multiple drop ins a day, house sit and stay with your animals over night, or they can be dropped off at my home.
“Sky took amazing care of our animals! She sent plenty of pictures and updates multiple times a day. My animals were so well cared for, I don’t even think they noticed we were gone. We will definitely use sky for any future dog sitting needs!”
“Wendy is the best dog sitter and I feel so lucky to have found her! The dogs loved that she played with them so much and gave them lots of attention and we loved getting lots of photos and updates. Our dogs are big and loud so I get anxious about having someone new come over but it was no problem for her. She left our house clean and our dogs happy. She’s the first sitter we’ve had that reached out to me ahead of our trip to confirm the stay. We will be using Wendy’s service for all our trips going forward.”
About: I grew up on a farm. We had dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and ducks! I miss having them around. I’m excited to help take care of yours! I am retired from the airlines, I paint part-time. I do travel, but I am very flexible with my hours! I love to exercise and walk daily! I would be glad to take care of your pet at your home. I love going for walks, caring for animals, giving them attention! You give me the instructions and I can do it!
“Angie was amazing and meeting her put me completely at ease! I knew our zoo was in good hands and would end up spoiled, which they were. She even left us a report card which was appreciated. Angie will be our go to sitter without a doubt!”
“Just relocated to KC and needed a sitter on short notice. Elyssia was amazing with my 4 pups. I was very excited to find a vet tech available as 1 of my pups needed an injection while i was out of town. My pups loved her and were so tired from play when i got home. I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“We are in a unique situation staying in a hotel as our home is being fixed due to a tree falling on it. Jessica stayed at the hotel for five days with my senior pug who has severe separation anxiety. She slept with him, she took the up most care of my baby. He has never been left with anyone other than his 10years of living. She gave him his daily meds, took him on long walks, she sent pictures everyday, and she had great communication. Not only did we find an amazing sitter, we found a wonderful friend. Jessica is now family. I highly recommend her, she will treat your pet as if they are her own.”
“I couldn’t have been happier with the care Milly and Cooper received. They are 2 senior dogs and Jess took really good care of them and she was reliable and trustworthy. I came home to two very happy dogs and a clean and tidy house. I received regular updates and I highly recommend Jess.”
“Kyle was fantastic with our two larger dogs and our aloof cat! He was super responsive and kept us in the loop on the happenings around our house while he house/petsat the weekend. Would definitely rebook him again!”
“Lily was absolutely fantastic! She kept us updated with photos and texts and made sure that all of our animals felt comfortable the whole time she stayed. I will absolutely be using her next time we go out of town!”
“Grant was awesome! He let us meet his dog first to make sure they were a great fit before I left. He also saved my trip by being the only great person available. Totally would book again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ectonville is $53 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $63 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.

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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
