“Lari was soooo attentive and thoughtful! You could tell she loved on my sweet Ammo boy as if he was her own dog! She made sure his time was enriched with outings and walks and playtime… she was attentive to details in all aspects of his care and home sitting and was so respectful of my home! I will be using her again for sure!!!!”
“We just had Alyson pet/house sit for the first time and were very happy with her services. Our three dogs were well cared for and the household in order when we came back after a week away. Alyson was also fantastic about communicating with us. We’d definitely hire her again!”
“Arlin & Edgar were absolutely fantastic! Very communicative, provided many updates and pictures, and took my dog on so many excursions while I was gone so she wasn’t stuck at home. Would definitely use again and felt very at ease leaving my dog in their care.”
“Haley watched our two yellow labs when we were out of town. She did a great job! She was great a communication, sent lots of pictures, and left the house just as it was when we left. I would highly recommend her and we will be booking with her again!”
“Cesilia was amazing with my dogs, Loki & Raider! Raider (Ray) is very shy around new people, but Cesilia really brought Ray out of her shell. I received lots of photos, videos, and updates during my vacation, so I was able to just enjoy my time away, instead of stressing about my dogs and house. I highly recommend Cesilia for dog and house sitting, I will definitely hire her again in the future.”
“This is the first time I have used Rover because for many years we have had our friends available to us, until this trip. I found it to be a really easy process and without it, we never would have found Faith! I am so thankful! Faith is amazing! Our "boys" loved her right away! She followed my instructions, and was able to get one our dogs to do something we have a hard time doing ourselves! This demonstrated the trust he had in Faith immediately. If you are looking for a trustworthy, dependable, kind, and loving sitter for your fur babies in your home, then I highly recommend you hire Faith!! You will be very happy you did!”
“We would not hesitate to book Ysobel again. Her communication is wonderful, she is very helpful, and truly cares for our pets while she is with them. We really appreciate the care she puts into her stays and the compassion and passion she has for animals. I highly suggest her if you need anyone to come and stay at your house.”
“Briana did amazing. She went above and beyond for my pups. One had recent surgery for a CCL and weighs 60 pounds, and I was surprised to see her carrying up and down the stairs (3 flights) the entire weekend I was gone. Was not expecting that. Definitely would recommend and will be using her in the future!”
“Loved working with Kaylee. Our dog can be destructive when we’re gone and she spent lots of time loving on him. She sent pictures and texts so we could see how it was going. She asked questions if she needed more info on Joey’s routines. And she remembered to water the plants and bring in the mail and the garbage cans. Definitely recommend!”
About: I've been providing reliable pet care for my mom's friend's dog for the past couple of years, giving me hands-on experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. In addition, I completed the Pre-Vet Tech Program at Tri-Tech Skills Center, where I gained experience caring for a variety of animals. Through the program, I learned proper animal handling, health and safety practices, basic animal care, and the importance of recognizing signs of stress or illness in different species. I'm patient, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. I'm available for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals and can adapt my schedule to meet each pet's individual needs and routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and potty breaks. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting their individual personalities and comfort levels. I also keep the home clean, ensure pets always have fresh water, and provide updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they're away.
“Kirk did a fabulous job taking care of our kitty Kiwi and our old dog Ally. They were very happy and content when we arrived home! He was great sending videos , pictures and just a great communicator! High recommend him!”
About: Taken care of all types of animals including farm animals. I’m an avid animal walker as well. I’ve worked on a farm, I’m also trained with horses. I work a daytime, split shift so I am able to come back and forth to check on any animals I may be caring for. I offer both my home and services at a clients' home, however, I do prefer sitting at my clients’ homes as it often less stressful for the animal.
“She did a great job with my senior dog Muffintop. She saved us short notice and was so accommodating to our needs. I received picture updates regularly and felt like she was really there to take care of Muffin so she wouldn’t be alone while we were away. Great communication, so friendly.”
“Paulina did a wonderful job with our pets. The stay was during Christmas, so it was extra special that she could stay at our home to care for our dogs. I will definitely have Paulina again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Finley on Rover is $30.52 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 267 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Finley. 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 Finley 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 Finley 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 Finley 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.
