“Elizabeth was amazing with our shy dog! She warmed up to her quickly. Elizabeth followed all of our instructions to a tee and left our house in perfect condition. Will definitely be booking with Elizabeth again.”
“Lisa watched our two dogs while we were overseas for two weeks on vacation and we highly recommend her! She sent plenty of pictures, kept us updated throughout the stay, left the house clean and most importantly took good care of our dogs! We will definitely be booking Lisa for stays in the future.”
About: We have taken care of dogs our whole lives! From small dogs to big dogs, we’ve had them all. We are experienced with reactive dogs, comfortable walking dogs of all sizes, and are able to provide senior care. We are dependable, reliable, and are both Army veterans. My wife and I just lost our two senior dogs, and really miss having dogs around the house. We can’t wait to meet your dogs! Both my wife and I are currently working part-time, so we have plenty of time to care for your dogs! We will be around over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and would love to celebrate with your pups. ❤️🎄 We have a fully fenced backyard and there are no other pets in the home. We have indoor and outdoor dog toys, lots of dog beds, and crates of all sizes if needed. We are active and will make sure your dog gets attention, exercise, and plenty of love!
“Alicia was wonderful with my two corgis. She took such great care of them, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands while I was away. She also took excellent care of my home, watered the garden, and left everything incredibly tidy. It was such a pleasure to come home to happy dogs and a well cared for house. I would absolutely trust Alicia with my pets and home again and highly recommend her!”
“Brianna stayed with our dog and cat while we were on vacation and did a wonderful job. Our pets and home were well cared for and she communicated any concerns or questions openly. We would definitely book with Brianna again!”
“Sierra house sat for us taking care of our cat and large, challenging dog. She was very patient as she went through the process of allowing our dog, who is very protective, to get to know her so that we felt comfortable leaving for a few days. Sierra stayed in touch with us providing updates on our animals. We returned to find all was well! Very grateful to have found Sierra. She got our 5 star rating!”
“Hailey was a great sitter for my dog. Throughout the process, she was responsive and communicative. Hailey visited our home a few days earlier to do a meet and greet. On the day of care, she came to our home and spent many hours with our dog; took her on a walk, played with her, fed her, let her get all zoomies out, and treated her exceptionally well. Hailey shared photos and gave us updates throughout the day. I was really impressed with the care and consideration Hailey showed, and would recommend her to anyone looking for her services.”
“Mollie will reach star status so fast on Rover. She’s not new to housesitting / pet sitting by any means and is the most skilled and professional Rovers I’ve ever booked for overnight pet care! I can’t say enough good things about her (and almost don’t want to because then she’ll be booked solid and Champ and Athena will never see her again 😆 she’s that good. She will have repeat after repeat clientele) Mollie is: strong, confident and calm. My dog is large (over 85 pounds) and is a rescue so has some reactivity. Even in a situation beyond Mollie’s control escalated she was able to handle it safely and calmly and de escalate it so all pets were safe. Communicative and informative. From check in to check out I knew exactly what to expect. She was clear on included walks and activities. Tidy and comfortable. I was so pleased to see she’d used the kitchen though the evidence was beyond subtle. And she even ran a wash with the duvet cover and top blanket! — Bottom line: book mollie! And tip her generously! Her rate is too good for what she offers ♥️”
“Paul took care of our home, senior dog, cat and chickens while we were away for 10 days. We returned to calm, happy pets, a clean home and peace of mind. What a wonderful experience we would definitely recommend Paul to anyone and will be hoping he is available for our pet/house sitting needs in the future.”
“Brooklyn was a delight from the moment we met. She was very thorough at our meet and greet with her own questionnaire. Updates throughout her stay were perfect.”
“Kevin was a great house sitter and dog sitter! He was dependable, quick to respond to messages, and very professional. He watched our dog on short notice over a holiday weekend, which we really appreciated. We will definitely try to book him again when we go on another vacation!”
“Alex did an excellent job taking care of our two pups! She communicated with us regularly through text and sent lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs looked so happy in every picture, and it was clear they were receiving great care and lots of love. Because of Alex, we were able to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pets, who are like our kids. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter!”
“I can't say enough about Samantha's great service to our 2 cats. I was leaving Moon for longest stretch ever and Samatha was so patient and understanding of my constant text messages both before and during the 4 days she cat-sat. Hedda is often shy and hides from cat sitters, but she was ready to greet Samantha each time she came. Samantha was so conscientious with our cats. She stayed much longer than expected to play with Moon, made good decisions when she couldn't reach me one time, and managed to keep him from getting outside (not easy!). I was impressed that she identified Moon's depression right away; and it helped me prepare for our homecoming. I look forward to using Samantha again.”
“We were so lucky to have found Zach on short notice to house sit for our two husky mixes over the weekend. He was friendly, great with our dogs (despite our girl having quite a bit of anxiety with new people) and made us feel comfortable with lots of updates throughout the weekend. He even ran with the dogs daily which was a huge plus! He left our house spotless, and when we came home, our dogs were calm and happy and clearly well looked-after. Thank you, Zach! We will definitely be coming back as a repeat client!”

Sierra stayed at my house for four nights to watch my four pets and my house. She was communicative and professional. During her stay she sent pictures of my pets and asked important clarifying questions to make sure all the pets were well cared for. I’ll be booking with her again next time I leave town!
Hannah was a sweet and caring sitter for our Luna girl. We appreciated her extra care to give Luna her medication each morning and evening. And she was able to come back for a final check in and feeding before we got back from our trip later than originally planned. Thanks Hannah!
Amazing experience with Noelle. When we got home from our concert our puppy was sound asleep. He's so hyperactive and requires a lot of stimulation. We know Noelle gave him plenty since he was so pooped out. 100% will be using her again for any future pet care!!
First experience doing in-home dog sitting with Madi was a positive one. My girls, Hazel and Birdie, seemed particularly comfortable with her. She was communicative and I appreciated the regular updates. When I returned, the house was in great shape and the dogs clearly had a good time with Madi. Hope to rebook.
As always, Todd was incredible. He is excellent at communicating. We received updates and pictures every day. Our cat and dog received the best care and got all of the attention, love, and fun that we had wanted for them. We will ALWAYS choose Todd to take care of our little fur babies.
Ashley did an amazing job watching my dog for the weekend! She came over for a meet and greet and made sure she understood exactly what my dog needs. She followed all my directions for care and gave me detailed updates. I came home to a clean and tidy home and a happy pet! I would definitely recommend Ashley and book her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fircrest is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $80 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 6,755 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fircrest. 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 Fircrest 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 Fircrest 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 Fircrest 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.
