“Toni is always great with my doggies. I always appreciate the pics she sends, the love she gives them, the walks, and her commitment and communication. She is trustworthy , timely and follows my list of requirements/requests with my fur babies.”
“Tonya did a fantastic job taking care of our boys and watching our house while we went on a short vacation. She kept us updated and I had no worries about our boys. She's the best and will definitely use her again.”
“I recently left my pup with Tera while I were away, and it was hands-down the best decision I could have made. From our first meet-and-greet, Tera was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs—she asked thoughtful questions about routines, favorite toys, and any quirks right away. She sent daily photo and video updates (which included some hilarious playtime moments and cozy nap shots), so Inever had to wonder if our dog was happy and safe. Our pup came home relaxed, well-exercised, and clearly adored Tera’s! Tera followed every instruction to the letter, kept the house spotless, and even went the extra mile with cleaning up the house. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely loving toward animals, Tera is the one. Thank you, Tera!!! 💖💖🐩🐩”
“Nikki did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs, Reuben and Frank! She was great with them, kept us updated with excellent communication, and sent us pictures while we were away, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy dogs and a clean, tidy house. We would absolutely recommend Nikki and would gladly have her watch Reuben and Frank again!”
“My dog loved Anna! Anna took my dog on walks. She sent me photos showing their activities. She was even willing to sleep with my pup to calm her at night. I would definitely have her babysit my pooch again.”
“Natalie did a fabulous job caring for our two big dogs while we were out of town. Her communication is awesome, she asks great questions, keeps us informed and updated on our boys, and left the house clean. We felt comfortable knowing she was there and will put her at the top of the list for rebooking the next time we travel. Our pups were happy and content. Thank you Natalie!”
“Holly’s amazing! We’re so grateful to be able to travel and know our dogs are being cared for by a genuine animal lover. Our dogs are big bodies with bigger personalities, and Holly takes them and their needs in stride. Holly’s also a great communicator, which is so helpful when life gets hectic 😅”
“I’m absolute delight and really wonderful with nervous dogs. She knows how to handle all different types of personalities and will build their their trust within no time. An absolute wonder and we will definitely ask for her help again in the future.”
“Crystal took amazing care of my newly adopted dog, Ziggy, and my two cats while I was away. She did such a great job with them, and it was obvious they all loved her. I also really appreciated that when I got delayed getting back into town because of traffic, she came back out again to make sure Ziggy got dinner and could get out since I was going to be home pretty late. That meant a lot and was truly above and beyond. She’s awesome, super dependable, and I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Baylee was fantastic and highly communicative during her time taking care of our pets! She was very delicate with one of our dogs who was dismayed with the family missing and we couldn't be happier how she handled everything! We will definitely be looking at using her services again in the future!”
“Lexi is wonderful with my pups! I’ve used her before and have been consistently pleased. My dogs love her, even my shy, avoidant little girl pup. Lexi is friendly, thoughtful, considerate, and very easy to work with. She is thorough and asks questions/makes suggestions about things I wish I had thought of!”
“Alison and her daughter did an amazing job. They cared for dogs as if they were there own. They went above and beyond by cleaning our bedding and being flexible when our flights were delayed. We asked her to stay another night and she didn't hesitate when she said yes. We couldn't have made it without her. Her daughter was great with our dogs and she seems to be very pet educated. We will definitely be asking for their help in the future. Thank you Alison!”
About: Since the day I came home from the hospital dogs, cats, and pets have been in my life. From having a German shepherd as a big brother as a baby, to growing up with Rottweilers, cats, and a couple reptiles throughout my childhood, to Pitbulls and Staffies as an adult. I've grown up loving, taking care of, and training puppies and rescue dogs longer than I can remember. I'm comfortable with pretty much all animals! One of my favorite parts about owning "aggressive" or "bully" breed dogs is creating a strong bond&trust and working with their training. Not only is it rewarding to see their progress and be able to change some people's perception and show them even the "scary" dogs can be as much of a big gentle lover as any other. So big or small, your pets are in good hands! I currently work a full time 9-5 but I'm looking to add a job to the end of the day after I get off work Outdoor: -Walking or playing outside for exercise, bathroom breaks, or mental stimulation Indoor: -Play time, changing or cleaning pads or catboxes or trying to work with them as needed by the client
About: Grew up caring for both cats and dogs and love them equally. I can handle the shy, the chaotic and the energetic pets all the same! My schedule is very flexible and adaptable to circumstance. Im available generally early to mid day but also at night as well. If you reach out, I can always try to work you in despite the time. I am always respectful of property, pets and neighbors. I adapt to the pets, people and property that I care for and pride myself on consistency.
“Jann was awesome! She took great care of my fur babies. I am a very nervous pet mom and she made me and the pups feel comfortable. The animals and my home were well cared for. I will absolutely request her services again.”
“Patricia handled our home & challenging pack of dogs like a pro, one of them being a busy 7 month old pup, which I’m certain left her a bit sleep deprived. I was sent daily updates and photos, not just of our dogs, but of our 12 chickens and 3 cats as well. Her exceptional level of communication kept me connected while away. And returning to a spotless home was such an added bonus.”
“Eva was amazing with our pup! She is especially respectful, responsible, and communicative not to mention very knowledgeable about animal behavior and communication. We are so thankful and loved having her in our space.”

Nikki did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs, Reuben and Frank! She was great with them, kept us updated with excellent communication, and sent us pictures while we were away, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy dogs and a clean, tidy house. We would absolutely recommend Nikki and would gladly have her watch Reuben and Frank again!
We’re so grateful for the amazing care she provided for our dogs. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated throughout the stay. Our dogs looked so relaxed and happy with her. She was gentle, patient, and truly treated them like her own. We would absolutely book with her again!
Aurora is FANTASTIC. Our pooch was pamper and well cared for and the daily updates were thoughtful and appreciated. Our home was left in exceptional condition and she went above and beyond with extra walks and attention for our dog. We will absolutely book Aurora again.
We are first time cat owners. Our guy is just 10 months old, and this trip to help deal with some elderly parent issues in Florida was the first time we’ve traveled since getting our cat. We were very nervous. Luckily, we found Camille and she was available. We could not be happier. Excellent communication, lots of pics and videos of our guy, and she went above and beyond for us many times throughout the week. By the end of the first day, we knew Ulrich was in excellent hands and we’d made the right choice. I want to tell you that Camille is awesome, we are thrilled with her performance as a sitter, and that we think our cat now officially has an aunt, but I also kind of want to keep quiet about it, because I don’t want her to be booked solid the next time we need her. :P And there will be a next time. She’s fantastic. Hire her.
We cannot say enough good things about Ayah and Spencer, who stayed with our dog Pepper for two full weeks. I could go on and on but the most important to us was that we got daily updates and each update showed a happy Pepper that looked comfortable and undisturbed in any way. They asked for specific instructions to ensure Pepper kept her same routine and any other details that were beneficial to them. Our place was left perfectly, possibly even better than what we left. Ayah had washed our bedding for us and our towels. They left a clean kitchen with an empty trash can. Like I said, we cannot say enough good things about Ayah and Spencer. We look forward to seeing them again. If this is your first time using Rover, or having people stay in your home while you’re away, ask Ayah and Spencer! You will not regret the comfort you have while you’re away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Getchell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Getchell on Rover is $46.93 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 5,107 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Getchell. 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 Getchell 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 Getchell 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 Getchell 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.
