“Dani was amazing! My dog Ruby takes medicine and not a dose was missed even though the dog was uncooperative at times. She sent regular updates and photos which were much appreciated. My house was in the state I left it which is important to me. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She is amazing and caring.”
“Brandy was awesome yet again! We will be sorry to see her move away, but are grateful that our girl had such a great sitter. Our dog was happy and healthy and our home was just as we left it. Thanks for everything!”
“We love Kendra. She is so practical and responsible, and our dog and two kitties really enjoy hanging out with her. I appreciate her leaving the house so tidy and the sheets washed.”
“Cayla was awesome! Our plans shifted a little bit as we were navigating travel with our little one, and she was very accommodating. I could tell our pup was happy and well take care of. Our house was exactly how we left it when we returned- so helpful!”
“This is the first time using Rover. Rhiana reached out before accepting and we did a meet and greet. Our three beagles felt comfortable with her right away. She was super responsive and communicative. We got texts everyday. She stayed longer each day than we expected. Our dogs enjoyed having her at the house. The pictures she sent proved it! I recommend her for anyone!”
“Julia was super kind and reassuring since this was my first time leaving my boys with someone in over a year. She was prompt and had previously come to meet them. Followed their routine and messaged me before medicine and with pic updates. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again 🖤”
“I was very pleased with Rachel’s dog sitting services! My dog bonded with her. She sent the occaissional pic, establishing confidence. I will certainly schedule with Rachel again. I strongly recommend!”
“I'm very happy with Maggie who stayed at my home with two dogs and a cat for 3 days, 2 nights. She's obviously an animal lover and they all like her. My home looked great on my return and all the pets were happy. I am using Maggie again in the near future and am comfortable recommending her for overnight stays.”
“Sydney took great care of our high anxiety pup for us on very short notice. She is personable and her love of dogs shows. We will use her services again for any future trips, where we just can’t take our high spirited crazy man with us.”
“Alivia sat for Sage over the Christmas holidays while we were out of town and was fantastic. She kept us updated and took great care him. We always feel a little wary leaving him but it makes it a lot easier having someone like Alivia to take care of him. I wholeheartedly recommend her to look after your pets!”
“Alix patiently, capably, and graciously handled a weeklong housesitting stint with a well-trained but not-so-easy hound. Excellent communicator too. She's first on my list for future needs!”
“Kaylee was fabulous house/pet sitting with our 2 dogs and 4 cats for four days. Followed instructions to the ‘T’ and went above beyond; very communicative and reassuring.”
About: Twenty plus years of fun taking care of cats, dogs of different breeds, temperaments, ages, and sizes, and even some chickens. Including Noah's ark - a rabbit, hamster, rat, and fish. I have completed Rover's safety dog video. I grew up with dogs. My energy level is low-key and calm, which enables pets to relax. I give daily text updates and send photos. I have experience in giving shots (to my cat, who had diabetes), playing tug of war, throwing the ball, and taking Fido for walks. Currently I am not working a permanent job, so my availability is wide open (other than Sunday morning commitments & taking care of my place each day). I care for your pets in your home in the way you want them cared for. I give them the time to get used to me & treat them with gentleness and love. Making sure they are safe and having fun is important to me.
“Caralisa took such great care of our kitty, we are definitely booking her again!!! Thank you for going the extra mile and giving us peace of mind while away on vacation🤍”
“Amelia was a fantastic sitter for our 3 pets! She was very responsive to our text check-ins, but also proactively sent updates, which we appreciated. She seemed to really care about our dog and cats, and their individual needs and personalities. We felt like they were in good hands while we were away--we will definitely have her sit for our pets again!”
“Charlene took fabulous care of our dog and house while we were away. She is very professional and responsive. I would not hesitate to ask her to stay again and would heartily recommend!”

Julia is a fantastic sitter! This is the second time I’ve worked with her but this was the first time she’s stayed overnight and it was a holiday! She’s so reliable, cares about your dogs and gives good updates and lots of pictures! She’s also very good at giving meds to a sometimes difficult dog and when my dog got an upset stomach, she communicated with me right away. I felt very comfortable leaving my babies with her!! We will definitely be working with Julia again!
We (and our cats) loved Felix! This was our first time using rover and our first time being away from our pets for a week but Felix helped ease any anxiousness. They sent us daily photo updates about our cats and provided us with updates on how they were reacting to having someone new in the house. When our toilet decided to act up Felix provided above and beyond service with patching it up until we got home. Our home was clean and our cats were cared for. Thanks again Felix!
This is the first time using Rover. Rhiana reached out before accepting and we did a meet and greet. Our three beagles felt comfortable with her right away. She was super responsive and communicative. We got texts everyday. She stayed longer each day than we expected. Our dogs enjoyed having her at the house. The pictures she sent proved it! I recommend her for anyone!
Had a great experience and all my animals (3 cats and 2 dogs) were well taken care of! My cat who usually needs time to love people was snuggling her within a couple of hours (to give uou an idea how good she is with animals). I will happily request and ideally only use Mathison in the future!
Erin was great, even when things had to change. Something in our house set off Erin's allergies, and made it difficult for her to stay there. So she brought Tucson to her apartment, where he was happy, mellow and snuggly! This has inspired us to board him from now on, so he can relax while we are away!
Auraleigha is by far one of the best experiences I have ever had on Rover. She was both very respectful of and lighthearted about my cat's particularities and he is a big diva- so, him being good after my absence says a lot about her caretaking abilities. Her communication style was responsive without being overly-detailed. On top of all of that, she took the time to clean up extra for my arrival home. 10/5 stars!
Abigail B. was a fantastic sitter. She loved my girls and they adored her. She left my home spotless, even washed and dried all the dishes and put them away and vacuumed the carpet. Bayleigh Boo brings in sticks and makes quite the mess. Way over my expectations, sent me lots of photos and let my girls sleep with her. They are bed hogs but she didn't seem to mind. I will definitely hire her again.
Connor was exactly what I needed for the care of my senior dog and cat - he was great at communicating, especially when he wanted to check if my cat hiding for the first day was normal or if he should be worried, and sent photos of my pets while we were away. I absolutely would book Connor again!
Kelli was an A+ sitter. She was reasonable with pricing, quick to reply, and very honest and open. She keeps you updated multiple times a day with lots of photos and texts so that you can have peace of mind while on vacation. Kelli took a huge undertaking of 2 cats, 2 dogs (1 being a puppy) and 5 chickens! She is an amazing sitter and I would recommend her highly to anyone.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fir Grove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fir Grove on Rover is $40.66 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 903 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fir Grove. 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 Fir Grove 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 Fir Grove 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 Fir Grove 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 Fir Grove. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
