“Have called her several times now and will continue to schedule. She comes with her dog, Wilbur who is cute and cuddly. He even played with Cedar! Cedar is usually tired after the visits. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa cared for our cat, Mocha, for two days and stayed overnight at our home. This was our first time leaving Mocha for an extended period and using a cat sitter, so we were a little nervous but Alyssa put our minds at ease. It was clear that Mocha was comfortable with her—she continued eating, playing, and sleeping normally throughout the weekend. She even seemed to enjoy some in-depth conversations with Alyssa! We received regular updates and photos, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Alyssa also left our home neat and tidy. Overall, she did a fantastic job caring for both Mocha and our house. We would book with Alyssa again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Absolutely amazing. First time having someone stay and Kellie made sure we knew our babies were cared for and spoiled and left the house probably better than we left it.”
About: I have a tremendous love and respect for all animals. My attentive nature surges when in the presence of any animal… they are all I care about! I have been taking care of my family and friends pets for years! I can do special instructions with medicine for animals as well. I am currently working at Starbucks as a barista. My store that I work at is only 5 mins from my apartment. My shifts are normally no longer than 6 hours, and my boyfriend is home full time as well. Besides from work I am always home! I live in a cozy apartment with two of my own little kitties! I have a soft, large, playpen enclosure for your pet if needed, but my kitties are pretty friendly!
“Nicole did an amazing job taking care of our dog and cat. She was very responsive, timely, and sent beautiful pictures and updates while we were gone. We would definitely recommend Nicole and would love to have her back here to take care of our pets next time we are away. Thank you Nicole!”
“We had an amazing experience with Alivia and would recommend her to everyone looking for a dog sitter! She took such good care of our dog while we were gone. He’s kind of anxious around new people and she was so kind and patient with him, she sent us videos of him wagging his tail and being goofy :)”
“We were in a real bind to get a sitter and she was able to help us at the last minute. She took great care of both of our dogs and even washed some of their blankets while we were gone. Would recommend her again!”
About: hi there! Im Dylan and I can't wait to meet you and your pet. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs, and I can't have one of my own right now so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I'm very understanding of dogs that are a little more anxious, and provide them with a calm presence during the stay. Your pet is your family, and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. I'm responsible, creative, and have been described as an old soul. I love meeting new people and dogs-and being a part of a thriving community. When your dog is with me, they'll get lots of one on one attention, and lots of love ! Im currently free anytime any day during the week. So whatever works for you is great to me. Monday through Friday even weekends are fine. I provide safe, and fun interactions with all pets I look after. I am respectful of all pet owners and their pets and am able to follow any specific care instructions set forth. I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups! And updating you on how the sitting is going ! I have no fenced yard. But well enough of space to keep your pup occupied and having fun ! Friendly neighborhood safe environment for your pup !
“Natalya was very friendly, communicative, and took good care of the pets and house. I really appreciated her picture updates, and she even took my dog on an extra trip to the park! Would definitely re-book”
“Zabelle took great care of my dog and bearded dragon! She was very communicative and asked a lot of great questions in the meet and greet to make sure she understood our needs. I’d definitely book her again!”
“Kortney is the best! We have a (rescue) senior and a youngster that’s still using wee pads, so it takes a very special person to lovingly care for both. This is the first time we’ve left the girls so we were really nervous. Once we met Kortney we immediately felt comfortable and she watched them for an entire week. Highly recommend her. Communication was awesome. The house was tidier than we left it. Definitely will use her again.”
“We have hired Addie before and greatly appreciate her! She is reliable, responsible and took care of our senior dogs, home and garden so we could take a worry-free vacation. She communicates well, left our house clean, and followed the directions we left for her. We look forward to hiring Addie again!”
About: I am super friendly to all animals and will take care of them as if they were my own. Cats, dogs, whatever! I'm your guy! I love dogs very much, they are my favorite. I had labs in the past and know how to walk big dogs. I have a lot of stamina and can take them on long walks if they need it. I am experienced in giving dogs medication as well. I will keep them safe and happy. You won't have to worry while your pets are with me. I won't disappoint with my services. I will follow your rules and conditions to the letter. I will do everything I can to make sure you pets are happy and safe. I am currently available any day or time. I will let you know if there is a possible schedule conflict and do my best to still assist you! I will not be able to care for any at my own home. However, I am more than happy to care for them in your home! If you have any special rules or requests, let me know.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fruitland
Kathryn was with our dog for three weeks. She did a great job of taking care of our anxious and needy dog. He got lots of belly rubs and playtime! He is also a finicky eater, and she managed to get him to eat daily! Kathryn sent us pictures and videos throughout her stay. She was a great housesitter too! Overall, we were pleased with the care Kathryn gave our dog!
Alicia was so amazing! She’s was very communicative and made sure my pups were well taken care of! She also went above and beyond my expectations; including doing laundry, watering my plants, walking my doggos, taking out the trash, grabbing the mail, etc. The next time I have to have my dogs watched I will absolutely book with Alicia again!
Juan house-sat for 11 days, taking wonderful care of our dog and two cats. He asked great questions before and during the time, left the house clean and tidy, and overall made us feel like our home and fur babies were in great hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Juan!
I had a sitter have to cancel super short notice and Daphne absolutely saved us! I have 3 very spoiled boy cats who are all in different stages of life (kitten - adult - senior) and she was able to follow specific instruction without issue. It was much easier relaxing on my trip knowing my boys where in good hands ☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fruitland on Rover is $44.4 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 1,070 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fruitland. 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 Fruitland 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 Fruitland 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 Fruitland 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.
