“There’s no greater feedback than my pup’s wagging tail when Shachel arrives to watch him. It’s a great comfort to have someone taking good care of my little guy. So thankful to have found Shachel and to know she’s watching Teddy for a number of upcoming travels.”

“Is it possible to give Patti 10 stars?!?! She was the perfect sitter for Daisy. She took excellent care of our mini labradoodle—provided lots of love, care and exercise opportunities. Patti also took care of me through thoughtful communication and wonderful photos of Daisy having a great time! Patti also left our house spotless! Thank you, Patti, for the best in-home care experience! 😃 Ana”

About: I've grown up with dogs in the home and currently have a short haired border collie and a mini golden doodle. I'm an avid walker so I'll be sure to take your pup on longs walks that enhance their health and mood! I also have experience caring for small animals like hamsters and gerbils. While I've never had a cat, I get along with them quite well and have cared for them many times for freinds and family that go out of town. I have a very flexible schedule, with Sunday being the only day I prefer to not work, but am willing to on occasion. My only other schedule restriction is the evenings around dinner time, so 4-6pm ish, I try to do dinner with my partner. I'm able to work early mornings or late evenings, whatever suits you and your pups needs! I'll do my best to follow whatever routines your dog is used to, and if I'm caring for them in your home I'll do so while maintaining respect for your space and privacy. If there are any accidents or messes, I'll be sure to clean them up and notify you if there's any unusual pup behavior or property damage.

“Rachel was friendly and communicative, and she took wonderful care of our dog, bird, and house. She sent detailed updates, and it was obvious to me that our pup enjoyed having her around and was really bonding with her. In addition to that, the house was as clean as we left it, maybe even cleaner, which I really appreciate. I will definitely turn to her again in the future when I need another sitter.”

I appreciated that she was able to spend the night at my home because Trixie needs to be let out late at night and early in the morning. I hope to book her again and again! Thanks again Helen!”

“Jackie did an excellent job with our senior Lab. He loved her from the moment he met her. She sent us lots of pictures and stayed in communication keeping us posted on all his adventures. At one point my husband said “he is having so much fun he may not want to leave”! Additionally, she did a great job watering all of my plants and vegetables during a hot spell. They all looked better than when we left. We arrived home to a spotless house, a beautiful thank you note, fresh baked cookies and sourdough bread! I would highly recommend Jackie to care of your precious pets!”

Bo had a great time playing with her two dogs and was no doubt fun for him. I would not hesitate to ask Alexis to watch Bo again and easily recommend her to others.”

About: I absolutely love dogs and I am passionate about their care! I have over 40 years of experience working with animals, and dogs are my passion. I have always considered them as part of the family, and treat them that way. I no longer have a dog of my own, so your pet will be loved and cared for in a one on one home setting. Being a Rover sitter is the most rewarding thing I have ever done. I work from home, so I am able to stick to the schedule you have set and that also means lots of play breaks together in our large fenced yard! I will send you daily updates and pictures to keep you posted. I personally know how difficult it is to leave your pet behind and not worry. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, loving, and engaging experience for all dogs, and allow you as a pet parent to vacation or be at work without any stress or concern about the well-being of your fur-baby. I have experience with administering medications, preparing specialty foods, and I am familiar with basic training techniques.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 8+ years and have always had a love for animals. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, medication, or company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also very attentive to their routines and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to offer plenty of time and attention to your pet. I can work around your pet’s routine and am happy to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight care when needed. I have a safe, comfortable home with a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pet to relax and play. I have a friendly dog who is used to being around other animals, but I’m also happy to keep pets separated when needed.

About: PLEASE NOTE: CURRENT LOCATION IS NYON, SWITZERLAND. I PROVIDE SERVICES IN SWITZERLAND AND FRANCE AND AM AWAITING ROVER CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SWAP ME TO A FOREIGN ACCOUNT/CHANGE LOCATION. I am “that” dog owner who gets dog themed gifts from everyone, plans my day around adventures with my pups, makes my own organic treats and massages their paws with lotion before bed. I knew from an early age I didn’t want children of my own, so they really are my babies! I recently moved to Nyon, but work in Geneva. I struggled to find pet care I felt comfortable with moving here, so I know what is lacking in the industry and I would love to treat your pets like my own. I’m huge on cuddling if your dog is lazy like my golden, but also keen to keep active outdoors if they’re full of energy like my lab. No size too small or too large, no breed that scares me. I will follow your instructions to a “T,” because id hope my sitter would do the same. One of my dogs has allergies and acid reflux, so I’m comfortable administering medication! Photos and videos guaranteed throughout or time together, I can even make you some of my personalized pup cakes. On hot days, I make popsicles to keep them cool and take them to swim in the river behind my house. I also have a car with doggie seatbelts, so we can do park visits! I work from home, so I can devote as much time as needed to making sure your babies are cared for in a way that suits their needs! I live in a flat, but have a 42 square meter terrace and work from home. So, I am able to take them outside for as long as specified by you. I have two very friendly dogs of my own who will keep them company if you’d like, or we can do solo drop ins and walks. I live in a dead end street that is quiet and surrounded by nature (River, woods, vineyard). Please see my reviews, I am also background checked as I work for an international organization (and can provide anything you need to feel safe). More than happy to meet beforehand so we can have a coffee and make sure everything is a good fit!

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the person friends and family trust to care for their pets. I have a Havanese named Pita who is my little adventure buddy. He’s 6 years old, about 16 lbs, and is a very friendly little guy who loves being around other dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and won’t be left alone during the day. I live in a clean, tidy apartment right off the Centennial Trail, so we love getting outside for walks and fresh air. Whether your dog loves adventures, playtime, or just relaxing and cuddling, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved like they’re part of the family while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. Your pup will have plenty of company, attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Pita and I already enjoy daily walks on the Centennial Trail, relaxing at home, and getting outside whenever we can, so your dog will be included like part of our normal day. I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. I live in a clean, tidy apartment and always make sure pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether they want to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just relax, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need.

Jaycee was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my home to care for my two dogs and two cats, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent frequent updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The animals were clearly happy, well-loved, and well taken care of—she even took the dogs on walks. When I returned, the house was clean, and everything was in great condition. I would highly recommend Jaycee to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hayden

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Hayden is $34 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $64 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 705 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 , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hayden. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
