“Grace did a week-long boarding at my home with my German shepherd and two cats. She is absolutely fantastic!! She had great communication, as always, and went above and beyond with my animals. She took my dog on car rides when she noticed he kept pulling to her car and even walked him around the spots she hung out to study and took him with. I am so glad I found Grace, my animals love her so much and clearly trust her. She also kept a log herself of what the animals did throughout each day and put highlights on it, then sent it to me at the end of the stay! I loved all the photo's and logs she did. Grace is AWESOME.”
“Gretchen was wonderful! We got updates on our dogs daily and felt they were in good hands with her. We came back to a clean house and some tired pups. Thanks so much Gretchen!”
“Really appreciated Beth’s daily updates she provided on the care for Tyson. I felt very comfortable with Beth staying in my home and would happily have her again!”
“We loved having Ava watch Oliver. She sent us updates and pictures that put us at ease while we were away. We came home to a happy puppy and could tell he was well cared for.”
“Gabby was on time, prompt with communication, kept us updated on how our girls were doing and any concerns she had. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the day. She was easy to reach and flexible, receptive to feedback. We will use her again. Our two dogs and a cat seemed to really like her, they were happy and healthy when we returned.”
“Sarah stayed at our home with our senior dog for an extended weekend and she did an amazing job with our old guy. She sent picture updates and we were confident that he was being well taken care of and enjoying his time with her. Sarah followed our instructions perfectly and left our place exactly how she found it. She is welcome back any time! Thank you Sarah!!”
“Anna was fantastic. This was our first time having anyone stay with Griffin and it all went so well. He’s got separation anxiety, so we needed to figure out how to make things easier on him and Anna was a wonderful solution! She was engaged and comfortable with him right away, and he’s a big dog, so that was good to see. She also sent period reports and photos, so we knew things were going well. We’re excited to have her back and have already booked our next Rover gig with her.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our 8-month-old puppy received! From the very beginning, Carolina was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our pup’s needs. They took the time to learn about our puppy’s routine, preferences, and quirks, making sure she felt comfortable and well cared for while we were away. Communication was outstanding—we received regular updates, photos, and even little videos about our pup’s day, which gave us such peace of mind. Carolina was engaging with her, providing plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structured care. We came home to a happy, well-exercised, and relaxed puppy, which speaks volumes about the level of care she received. We would absolutely trust Carolina again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Camille and Jordan took great care of Cal, sent plenty of pictures, and did everything asked. Easy to enjoy the weekend away knowing the dog is in good hands.”
“Kristen was wonderful! Took great care of my pup and was very communicative. When she noticed he was a little sad asked if her kids could come over and play with him to raise his spirits - I appreciated her attention to how my dog was doing and also making sure it was okay for her family to visit first.”
“It's always a good sign when the pups are happy to see you, and also sad to see Erin go. Erin always takes wonderful care of my pups and they are always sad to see her go!”
“Mary did a great job caring for our dog and our mother in-laws visiting dog while we were on a joint family vacation. She managed both dogs great and our house was in great shape when we returned. We will definitely use Mary again!”
“Bonnie was truly excellent. We were gone and out of service for 5 days so needed someone truly trustworthy to watch our dog (2 yrs) and cat (10 yrs). Bonnie was attentive, patient and flexible to their needs. They were obviously happy and well cared for when we returned home. We would recommend Bonnie highly and will certainly reach out to them for any future pet sitting needs!”
“Billie was a delight to meet and she took extra good care of our 2 pups. We have a senior dog who is blind and deaf and likes to get up very early in the morning to eat. Billie took extra good care of her, getting up with her and making sure she got outside to go potty often. She also won over the trust of our other dog who can be a tough customer. She took the time to send us pictures and updates to let us know what was happening at home.We will definitely hire Billie again!”
“Lacie did a great job looking after our zoo (2 dogs and 5 cats!). She was very conscientious and caring of all the pets and took great care of our house while we were gone.”
“Allison is absolutely fantastic. Our 4 year old dog adores her and so do we! She’s extremely communicative, very reliable and goes above and beyond to help us care for our pet. Simply the best sitter and caregiver you could find!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Falcon Heights
Arrin helped us out when we were in a pinch. We unexpectedly were going to be out of town and didn’t have someone lined up to take care of our dog, Lucca. She agreed to house sit for us on very short notice and I’m so happy that it was her who ended watching our pooch. She fed him, gave him walks, and cuddled him so he wouldn’t be so alone and she did it with a lot of love and kindness. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and we weren’t worried at all with our house and dog in her hands. She even grabbed our mail for us! She was also very quick to respond. I highly recommend her for anyone needing someone to watch their pets.
I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Billie. From the moment she first met our (three!) dogs, we just knew she was someone we could trust fully and completely with our fur babies. She truly went above and beyond - I think all of our pups wish she would just move in! We WILL be booking with her again.
Ariana has provided excellent care for our two older dogs. They are relaxed and secure upon our return because their usual routines have been supported. Ariana is great with communication and maintains a positive outlook even when there are challenges to getting the dogs out such as hot or rainy weather. We have booked Ariana twice and would do so again.
Lauren was the first sitter I’ve utilized through Rover.com and I was very pleased. She stayed with my 6-year-old lab (Odin) for six days during which time she had to interface with construction crews, neighbors, and miscellaneous issues. Lauren responded immediately to all my communications which I appreciated. Odin seemed well taken care of during my absence. I’ll certainly engage her again.
Eleni is absolutely wonderful!!! She took such good care of my pup Pippin while I was away, and made sure I was updated throughout my trip with great pictures and videos. She was so easy to trust as a pet sitter and I knew that my home and more importantly my dog were in great hands with her. She took such care to get to know my dog, his needs, any quirks about him, etc. before even starting the sitting so I knew it would go smoothly. Don’t hesitate to book with Eleni - she’s the BEST!

FAQs for House Sitting - Falcon Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Falcon Heights on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,498 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.
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 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 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.

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.
