“Kami stayed with our dog Chase while we were on vacation and did an excellent job as always. She gave us frequent updates and left the house spotless upon our return. Thank you, Kami!”
“Malia always takes the best care of my pup. She's super responsive, thoughtful, and sends great pics. This is the second time Malia has watched Benny, and I'll definitely hire her again!”
“Sophia was absolutely amazing! She took time to meet my pup ahead of the stay and then communicated and shared photos throughout the stay. She was beyond patient with Shadows needs, and navigated a challenging moment incredibly. She is a gem!”
“Angela came right on time and was in constant communication with me. She also went above and beyond and brought in some packages for us. We’ll definitely be using her again :)”
“I highly recommend Madison for anyone looking for trustworthy, reliable, and loving dog care! Madison took care of my pup + bird and did an amazing job. From the initial meet-and-greet to the regular updates during the stay, Madison was professional, communicative, and genuinely enthusiastic about spending time with my boys! Book with confidence, knowing your beloved pup will be in great hands :)”
“Paulina is a fantastic animal care provider! She recently watched our lab mix and cat while we were on vacation. From the beginning Paulina was an attentive listener and all-around strong communicator. During our initial meet-and-greet it was obvious that she has a way with animals- both of our fur babies took to her instantly :) While we were away on our trip, Paulina would keep us updated with texts/photos and it always reassuring to see how much the fun the furry ones were having. We have already booked her for next trip in a few months and we would highly recommend her services to any of our friends in the area. 5 stars!”
“Madalyn stayed with our dog Maggie for two full weeks. Our house was in great shape when we got back, and Maggie was happy and healthy! Will definitely work with Madalyn again”
“Philip is seriously the most ideal dog sitter. Knows how to manage dogs behaviors and communicates well. I seriously feel so lucky to have found him. We have a high energy dog and it felt so nice to have someone who knew how to entertain and also love our dogs so well. Thank you Philip!”
About: I have grown up in a house full of cats and dogs, so I am no stranger to the late night zoomies or hairball. I have dog and cat sit my whole life and still love it! I am currently unemployed and doing side hustles, I have the time to dog walk, cat sit and stay the night if needed! I would love to take care of your pets! I live in a spacious apartment but prefer to pet sit at the clients place. I have one cat at home and have raised her since she kitten.
“Hugo was great with our dogs while we were away for a week in France! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures. We felt like our dogs were in good hands and we could relax.”
“Shayla was very sweet with our kids, especially with our very senior Lady Ume. She kept us updated texting and with photos. Shayla was respectful of our home and we returned home to a clean and tidy house. We have already reserved Shayla for a second visit.”
“We had a wonderful housesitting experience with Dariya! While we were gone, we received daily photos/videos and highlights from the day. She incorporated our routines and training methods where applicable, and was attentive to the crews specific needs. The house was just as we left it and we came home to a happy group. We would recommend and rebook with Dariya!”
“Autumn is our go-to sitter when we're traveling. Travel is so much more relaxing knowing that everything at home is under control by someone so responsible, who genuinely cares about our dog. The frequent status updates are a big part of that piece of mind, and a really nice reminder of home during the trip. And on top of that, the house is spotless clean when we return!”
“Brook was great- easy to communicate, reliable, and she left the house super clean! My male dog can be a bit difficult but he loved her and from pictures she sent, I could tell how relaxed and happy my dogs were.”
“Katarina followed instructions well and took consistent and great care of our pets (2 dogs) while away. Recommended sitter. She can handle cats, smalls dogs, and big dogs.”
“Skyler is top notch. Right from the start, communication was great. Unfortunately my dog decided to be a big jack@$$. He acted up right as I was packing to leave but petting on my bed. He ended up nipping Skylar and being a grumpface, making her job more difficult. She handled it like a pro and even given the option to finish the stay, with minor adjustments she gladly continued. I very much appreciated her commitment. 5 stars from me!”
“Kaila did a great job with Lindy and Loki. Loki is a rambuncious bull terrier and she handled him really well. When we came home the house was as we left it! We would use her again with no hesitation.”
“Matt was fantastic! My dog can be a little challenging at times, but Matt was determined to make Baxter comfortable with his stay and to become good buddies. He was communicative, took Bax on great walks, left the house clean, and my dog seemed so happy when I arrived home! Will definitely be using Matt in the future and highly recommend him to anyone searching for a great dog sitter!!”

Angela was great. We were away for 6 days and it was the first time we had left our dog for longer than 1 night. She sent us regular reports and photos, which eased our minds and allowed us to relax on our trip. When we returned, Max was in great shape (as was the house). We will be using her often in the future!
Kaila did a fantastic job watching little Lily for a few hours while I did errands. She was calm and soothing, and this was so nice for Lily who is a puppy and has a bit of separation anxiety. It was obvious that Lily really liked Kaila from the start. I have already booked Kaila again and look forward to knowing that Lily will be in great hands!
I would give Kami 6 stars if I could! She is a wonderful pet sitter, and I always feel completely at ease leaving my two dogs in her care. She stayed in our home for 4 nights while we were away and followed all of the instructions we left for her, and we came home to a clean and tidy house. Our dogs can be a handful at times--one is 12 and the other is 3, so they have very different needs, and she is so great with both of them. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I would highly recommend Kami to anyone!
Emilia was an incredible sitter for our two high energy dogs. She took care of our big malinois and our crazy puppy, taking them on multiple long walks and to the park, as well as giving them lots of love. She accommodated our very last minute request, working around her schedule for us. She followed our instructions and was super communicative, sending frequent pictures and updates on our pups. Your pets will be in very good hands with Emilia!
Sene did a great job taking care of our two dogs and home. They were disappointed when we came home because they had so much fun with her! :) We will definitely hire Sene again and highly recommend her services to anyone with high energy, high maintenance pups!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Geneva on Rover is $52.5 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 722 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Geneva. 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 Geneva 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 Geneva 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 Geneva 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.
