“Beth was a fantastic sitter for our slightly wild but very loving pit-mix, Roxie. And our unusually friendly cat, Vegetable. She was extremely communicative and thoughtful sending us lots of nice pictures while we were out of town. Thank you Beth for taking such good care of Roxie and Vegetable (and our house!). I think Roxie is already looking forward to spending more time with you soon!”
“Ashley was an excellent house/dog sitter! Our pup was clearly well taken care of, she spent lots of time playing and walking him. We appreciated the routine updates and she left the house clean and secured. Glad to know we can work with her again!”
“Another wonderful experience with Sarah! My dog and cat adore spending time with Sarah, and her daily updates and photos always make me smile. As usual, our home was left in excellent shape upon our return. Sarah also took wonderful care of my gardens while we were away! Sarah continues to be my first pick anytime our pets need love and care while I’m away. Thank you for another great experience, Sarah!”
“Amber was an excellent caregiver to our pups. She was extremely detailed with her updates and followed through on our many to-do’s (as one of our dogs is on several medications). She is very trustworthy and competent. I felt very comfortable with her staying in our home - plus she was flexible during an unexpected power outage. Definitely would recommend!”
“excellent gal and great pricing too! she really goes above and beyond her pay grade and puts in the extra mile to make my animals feel safe while i was away! will rebook when needed!!! Also the pictures she sent put me at ease 11/10”
“Emerson was an amazing sitter for our two girls. I got daily updates, came home to a clean home and didn’t worry one bit while we were away. We came home to two very happy doggos and will definitely book again. Thank you for taking such good care of our girls and making it so easy to enjoy our vacation. We appreciate you!”
“Abi took great care of Molly while we were on vacation. She sent us photo updates and left our space nice and clean. I will definitely be seeking out Abi’s help next time we are in need!”
“Spencer is amazing. He took great care of our animals and of our house. All of the animals were happy to see us but not at all stressed like they sometimes are when we are gone. I highly recommend Spencer!”
“Amanda was excellent! She came over prior to our trip to meet our dogs and go over all of the details. Everything was neat and clean when we got home. She started the dishwasher and washed the bedding and towels, which I did not expect. That was nice after getting home from a long travel day. She was very communicative and sent updates while we were gone. We will definitely use Amanda again!”
“We will certainly use Beth again to watch our lil Bailey. Beth was great at communicating daily and sending updates and photos We felt 100% confident and comfortable with Beth caring for our lil guy and our home while we were away for a bit over a week. Beth has a very calm and confident energy and our lil guy warmed up to her right away. We could see that Beth has a natural love and care for animals !!!. We are the pet parents that have a hard time leaving our lil guy as I am sure most people do..and we have pretty high standards ha. We recommended Beth 100% and will be reaching out again. Thank you again Beth!!!”

Mauren took great care of our pup and home, as always. She clearly loves animals, and is kind and conscientious with their owners too! She kept us up to date on everything and sent along plenty of fun photos and videos (a real plus for our kids). We came home to a happy dog and a clean and tidy home. We would recommend her to anyone.
Jeremiah was a fantastic dog and house sitter! He has such calm energy and our dog seemed comfortable with him right away during the meet & greet. Jeremiah sent videos and photos during his stay and left the house spotless. We wouldn't hesitate to book him again in the future. Highly recommend!
Fabulous!!! Brooke clearly has an ease with animals. My cat went right to her the moment she arrived for a meet and greet. My cat fell in love. Prior to meeting Brooke, I was very anxious about leaving my house and my beloved cat with a stranger, but after our meet and greet, all my fears were washed away. Brooke left frequent messages and pictures about her time with my cat. I feel so very lucky that Brooke was the one who cared for my cat. Excellent!!
Sarah was phenomenal with the pups, even my neighbors had rave reviews for her! She was very attentive and responsive. She clearly knows dogs very well and can meet their needs. She sent us loads of pictures and a play by play of what she did with the pups regularly
Ally is a fantastic dog/house-sitter. She took wonderful care of my dog. He looked better when I came back than when I left! She sent me many pictures and updates. She is polite and personable. And she did some extras, like cleaning up the house and even weeding my garden. Truly, she is a gem.
Katie was awesome and it was one of the best dog-sitting experiences we’ve had. We have a senior dog who prefers to stay in our home when we need to be away. Katie was communicative and sent regular updates and photos, took great care of our dog, and left the house just as she found it. When we returned home, our dog was happy and comfortable - not anxious and stressed as she’s been at other times when we’ve returned. We couldn’t be happier with Katie and would use her again without hesitation. Thank you, Katie!
Gretchen was great! My two cats loved her and she did a fantastic job taking care of them. She sent pictures and videos so I wouldn't miss my fur babies too much. The house was spotless when I returned. She definitely went above and beyond. I'll definitely rebook with her again.
Billie was so sweet and great to work with. She communicated often with cute updates on my pups and I could tell they were happy in all the pics, enjoying their time with her. One of my dogs needs meds every 12 hours and Billie even let me know she’d administered it. Highly recommend and know the pups will be happy to see her again when I have future travels.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Falcon Heights is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $72 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 3,488 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Falcon Heights. 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 Falcon Heights 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 Falcon Heights 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Falcon Heights 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.
