“We were visiting family in the area and Nicki watched our mini goldendoodle at the Westin while we saw a concert. Our girl Mabel was well cared for and happy and already taken out for her last potty of the night when we returned. Next time we visit we will surely request Nicki again!”
“We are so grateful for this team! They do such a wonderful job with our Batman who needs special attention and care. Thank you again! They go above and beyond and when you come home you can feel relaxed.”
“Claire has been our best dog sitter to date- she did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and house while we were out of town for a week. She communicated frequently and was very understanding of our complex dog set up. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“We had such an amazing experience with Tim over Christmas. He stayed at our place and was incredibly easygoing and wonderful with Emory. He even came by beforehand to meet Emory, which immediately made us feel comfortable. He brought his dog Oliver along, and the two of them got along so well. It was really sweet to see. Throughout our trip, he sent us daily pictures, videos, and updates, which we truly appreciated. The best part was how kind and flexible he was when our flight got delayed and we couldn’t return until the next day. He didn’t hesitate to take Emory home with him, made sure our flight had taken off, and then dropped Emory off the next day. It took all the stress out of an already stressful situation. We couldn’t recommend him enough and would absolutely trust him with Emory again.”
“Corinne took such great care of our dogs! This was a last minute trip and the first time we left our puppy, so we were nervous. Corinne treated our dogs as her own and we were able to leave and enjoy ourselves knowing the dogs were in good hands!”
“Ryan was a wonderful companion for our dog Bailey. She played Frisbee and tug with her daily. She communicated with us every day with pictures. I felt very confident that Bailey was well cared for while we were gone. I'm so happy to have found her!”
“Emily was wonderful with my slow-to-warm up little dog. She asked questions about his needs beforehand, took great care of him while I was away, sent pictures and updates, and left my house just the way I left it. Highly recommend!”
“Perri was wonderful with my dog Mac! She was really professional, sent lots of photos and updated a lot! I would definitely recommend her and will be asking her to watch my dog again.”
“Grateful for Lesley! This was our first time working with her and she did a great job taking care of our 2 cats and home while we were away for the weekend. She was friendly, professional, attentive to both their needs, a great communicator and shared lots of updates on her progress with them. Both cats showed multiple signs that they were comfortable with her, which was a huge relief and provided the peace of mind we needed to relax while we were away. Thanks Lesley!”
“Alex & his wife took care of my 3 pups over a long weekend. I had them stay at my home as 2 are foster dogs & more comfortable here now. Everything was great & the pups were well taken care of.”
“Samantha was absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment we left, she gave us complete peace of mind with thoughtful daily updates and so many sweet photos of our dogs. It was obvious they weren’t just being looked after, they were genuinely loved and cared for. She went above and beyond in every way. She brought in our mail and packages, tidied up the house before leaving, and treated our home with so much care and respect. Coming home to happy pups and a clean house after being across the country was such a gift. Samantha and her daughter were both amazing, and I truly can’t thank them enough. Finding someone you trust with your pets is priceless, and I feel so lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be booking with Samantha again, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like they’re her own.”
“Bennett was fantastic! He was professional, communicative and truly looked after our lil pup. Having him taking care of our pet helped us have a great vacation. We will definitely work with Bennett in the future and he made a forever furry friend!”
“Kat was great! I was in a last minute crunch to find a sitter and she came through eager and experienced! 🙌🏽 The meet and greet went well and she handled my big 97lb baby beautifully. Plenty of updates and the house was clean upon return. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Kat!”
“Thank you so much to Jeremy for making our trip to our daughter's wedding worry free! Our 12 year old dog Ozzie developed anxiety in the last few years which makes trips to the kennel not a possibility any longer. Jeremy was able to stay at our home to house sit & pet sit Ozzie; he helped with all of Ozzie's quirks & we didn't see ANY evidence of anxiety when we got home. I would 100% recommend Jeremy as a sitter & will definitely plan to use him again.”
“Ava was wonderful! She took great care of our pup and even took him on fun adventures and hikes. We had a last minute need and are so glad she was able yo accommodate. Thank you, Ava!”
About: I have had a dog almost every year of my life and I have worked in an animal hospital for 8 years. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes from 6lb yorkies to 85lb goldens! I am a retired individual who loves hanging out with my family and taking care of dogs. I clean houses during the week but that provides me a very flexible schedule as it is on my time. As I am a trusted individual to clean other's houses, I know how to be respectful of other's spaces and leave them in a better condition than I arrive. My house is always picked up so no worries of dogs eating small toys or items that could harm them.
“Katie was great and adapted to the fact that we had recently moved to a new home easily. She handled changes to the schedule with no problems and was able to work with our sometimes nervous pups!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Fenton is $45

Ryan was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our cat and dog for a week while we were gone. She went the extra mile for us in several ways and always provided excellent communication. I cannot recommend her enough - our pets immediately took to her. We will definitely use her again.
Maya was amazing! She checked in on Joey multiple times throughout the day and was great at updating me with pictures of them playing, going on walks, or just hanging out at the house. She was very trustworthy and did a great job communicating. Joey loved her and was in great spirits when I got home from my trip. I will definitely be rebooking Maya for future pet care.
Carolann was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, bunny, and fish while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure all of our pets were well cared for, happy, and comfortable. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was obvious she truly cares about animals. Out of 10, she is definitely a 10! We would absolutely have Amy as our sitter again and 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fenton on Rover is $48.84 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 1,644 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fenton. 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 Fenton 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 Fenton 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 Fenton 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 Fenton. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
