My husband and I were extremely pleased with Kayleen’s professionalism and attentiveness with our dogs. Our puppy can be a handful and she handled them together great! We got updates on the dogs, pictures and kayleen was never gone too long when she was tending to other responsibilities. We would highly highly recommend her and will likely use her for house sitting many times to come. Thanks again Kayleen!

Eryn took great care of our dog and our house. She made sure he got enough walks and had everything he needed. We will definitely ask Eryn to take care of our dog again.

Krystal was awesome with my reactive, separation anxious dog. She sent photos of walks and dog park visits and he was obviously well cared for. My home was clean when I returned. Would definitely book again!

About: First, I live in Craig, but willing to try to make pickups work in Steamboat, meeting halfway or we travel for the gym often, so please don't hesitate to reach out to discuss. We have a large yard that is great for active dogs. There is always an adult in the house to watch/care for your pup, my mother in law lives with us, Mark is home often and we have 2 kids, ages 10 and 12. I enjoy being around dogs, and feel comfortable dealing with some simple behavior issues. I am very specific with my dog and willing to be as specific with yours if needed. I am active and can give walks daily. Please don't hesitate to let me know if any special needs and I'll do my best to be accommodating. I am active lifestyle and so going on walks and waking up early are part of my normal process. I am willing to work with any situation as best I can. I maintain control of situations and always attentive to behaviors or signs of fear or aggression to make sure it is addressed before any issues arise. I used to train horses when I was younger so the patience and consistency is something I've grown up with towards animals.

I reached out to Lora because our original sitter had canceled last minute. She was very responsive and flexible, and we booked it. Despite our dogs being a bit crazy the day she came-because we were finishing packing- she handled it really well. An hour after we left, she texted me and said they had calmed down. She did awesome- she walked and hiked them everyday, and they were happy and exhausted. I think she took amazing care of them, and updated me throughout. They were obsessed with her! I am so grateful to have had Lora be our pet sitter, and I do hope we can work together for another booking again.

About: ⚠️ SUMMER WARNING — This Is Important All the inside couch time they want! Your pup is treated as my own. As temperatures rise, the difference between in-home care and a boarding facility becomes a serious safety concern. Your dog will NEVER be left outside in the heat here. No overcrowded outdoor cages. No risk of overheating. No tension from being packed in with unfamiliar dogs that can lead to fights, stress, or injury. Just a cool, comfortable home with someone who genuinely cares ABOUT ME Your dog isn’t a reservation and source of $$. They’re family. I offer in-home boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walking — all with one simple guarantee: your dog gets the same love, attention, and care I give my own sweet Jazzy Belle. I’ve created a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet is truly treated as part of our home — not just another booking. DOG BOARDING (In My Home) I take one dog at a time — or up to three from the same family. That’s it. Your dog has my full attention, always. Never left alone. I follow your dog’s existing routine as closely as possible, because consistency is comfort. But we also go the extra mile — we cook fresh, wholesome meals for our girl Jazzy and are happy to do the same for your pup. Think home-cooked rice, air-fried sweet potatoes, and canned tuna — real food made with care. Prefer to keep your dog on their normal diet? No problem at all. You’ll receive regular updates throughout the stay so you never have to wonder — just relax knowing your dog is safe, loved, and living their best life inside a real home not outside in cages and penned up. DOG DAYCARE Calm, structured, and attentive — modeled after your dog’s routine at home. Whether it’s their first time away or they’re a regular, your dog gets focused one-on-one care, positive interaction, and a relaxed, comfortable pace. No chaos. No crowds. Just good company. DROP-IN VISITS (At Your Home) Your home, your rules — I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and companionship. I treat your space with complete respect and keep you updated every step of the way so you always feel at ease. DOG WALKING Safety and reliability, every single walk. I match your dog’s pace and comfort level, stay alert to surroundings, and keep a calm, steady energy. Every outing is a good one. FRESH FOOD OPTIONS — What Makes Me Different Most boarders hand your dog a scoop of dry kibble. Here, they have options: • Cooked white rice — gentle on digestion, perfect for sensitive stomachs • Air-fried sweet potatoes — nutrient-rich, naturally sweet, zero additives • Canned tuna — lean protein that dogs absolutely love • Kibble blend available — mix fresh food with their regular diet for an easy transition • Your diet, fully honored — prefer to keep them on their normal food? Done. No pressure, ever. WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE ME OVER BOARDING FACILITIES • Only 1 dog (or 1 family) at a time — your dog is never competing for attention • A real home environment — not a kennel, not a cage, not a facility • Your dog will NEVER be left outside in summer heat • No overcrowding means zero risk of dog fights or stress • Fresh home-cooked meals available — not just a bag of kibble • Routine-based care that keeps dogs calm and comfortable • Regular photo and message updates so you always feel connected • Every dog is treated the way I’d want someone to care for my Jazzy Belle FOR FIRST-TIME ROVER USERS I completely understand the nerves — handing your dog off to someone new is a big deal. I want you to feel confident from the very first message. I communicate openly, follow your instructions carefully, and treat your pet like my own. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your dog’s comfort, and I work hard to earn both.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Because I work remotely as a Realtor and property manager, I don’t need to leave the house while boarding. I’m home 100% of the day, allowing for consistent supervision, regular walks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, not around it. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to each dog’s needs, and I’m also available for pickup and drop-off if needed. We’re a warm, cozy, dog-loving household and look forward to welcoming you and your best friend into our home. DOG BOARDING (IN MY HOME) I treat every dog the same way I would want someone to care for my sweet Jazzy Belle. For first-time Rover users, I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog in someone else’s home. I follow your feeding, walking, and rest schedule as closely as possible, since routine helps reduce anxiety and keeps dogs comfortable in a new environment. Your dog will be closely supervised, loved, and treated like part of our family. I’m always happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. DOG DAYCARE If this is your first time using Rover, you can feel confident knowing your dog will receive calm, attentive care in a safe, supervised environment. I stick to your dog’s normal routine as much as possible because consistency helps dogs relax—even during short stays. Your dog will get positive interaction, structured activity, and plenty of attention, just like I give my own. DROP-IN VISITS (AT YOUR HOME) I know it can feel stressful having someone care for your pet in your home, especially if you’re new to Rover. I treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I expect for my own. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and companionship, and I’m happy to send updates so you know your pet is safe and comfortable. DOG WALKING For first-time Rover users, safety and reliability are always my top priorities. Walks are done calmly and carefully, based on your dog’s pace, comfort level, and routine. I pay close attention to leash handling, surroundings, and your dog’s needs so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands—even when you’re not home.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and while I haven’t had a dog of my own, I’ve volunteered at the Humane Society and take pet care seriously. I bring genuine affection, attention to detail, and a calm, reliable presence—this isn’t just a side gig for me, it’s something I truly enjoy. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I enjoy making space in my routine to give pets the attention and care they deserve. I care for pets like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick to their usual routines, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and always keep their space clean and calm. Whether I’m in your home or mine, their well-being is my top priority.

I wish I could give Gabby more stars! She was phenomenal from start to finish. Gabby stepped in on short notice to watch our pup—she was punctual, a great communicator, and left our place spotless. She was so kind to our pup and made sure he got outside to play with her dog and others. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hayden

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Hayden on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 95 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hayden. 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 Hayden 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 Hayden 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 Hayden 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 Hayden. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
