“This is the second time we have had Sorona watch our baby. She is fantastic. We get lots of pictures while we are away. Diamond is right at home with her. We had a freezer fail while we were away and Sorona contacted us promptly so we could contact a relative to salvage what we could. We have already booked for later this summer. Highly recommend Sorona.”

“Audry did a great job caring for our two dogs! She was very attentive and kept us updated with great communication throughout our trip. I felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands, and I didn’t worry about them at all! We would definitely book with her again!”

“We have used Erica several times for house and dog sitting, and she continues to do an excellent job. Our dogs are always happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. She keeps us updated while we're away and follows our instructions carefully. We especially appreciate the care she takes with our home. Each time we return, the house is exceptionally clean, neat, and well cared for, which gives us tremendous peace of mind when traveling. Erica is reliable, trustworthy, and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her.”

“A+ Emma was excellent. We needed an in-home dog sitter to look after our puppy for a week and she did an incredible job looking after our puppy and home. She was communicative and flexible with the handful of requests we threw her way. 100% will book her again!”

“Katy is warm, communicative, kind, easy to work with, and goes above and beyond to be an excellent house & petsitter. She took such good care of my animals. I'm DELIGHTED to have gotten to connect with her here, and felt so grateful that she was watching my house and my dog & cat while I was out of town. As soon as I got back to town, I immediately started thinking about when I might work with her next - for future travel. I highly recommend her!”

About: hi everyone!! my name is Kristina, a transplant from Bellingham, WA and it is so lovely to meet you! I have been connecting and caring for animals since a young child. From starting a dog sitting business as an 11 yr old (short lived but to volunteering at local shelters and assisting in the vet clinic, I have had the privilege of learning from and caring for our furry friends for a lifetime. My partner and I will be relocating to Anchorage and looking to sit together. When I’m not in search of the next furry friend to meet, I am typically out on the land climbing, laying on the grass, or dancing in the rain. I work in Youth Development and dream of bridging my love of animals, with therapeutic methods someday! I will be located in the Anchorage area for the whole month of October! I will be relocating with my partner and looking to sit together. My weekly schedule is incredibly open for all pet needs. Mornings, and afternoons on weekdays typically work best as well as weekend house sitting needs! Looking forward to connecting with you more :) As a cat momma myself, I understand how difficult it can be entrusting others for the care of our precious animals. As much as I value the connection I build with your animals, I want to connect and build trust with you as well! I believe every pet deserves care and love that is met at their speed. I value creating a genuine connection with your animal and commit to always working to ‘tune in’ with them. I meet them right where they are with lots of patience, gentle encouragement, and love. My background as a vet assistant and shelter volunteer has given me a deep understanding of animal body language, stress signals, and medical needs. I feel confident in reading what a pet is telling me and make sure they feel totally secure. Because I want pets to feel as happy and relaxed as possible, I currently focus exclusively on house sitting!

About: Big animal lover over here! I fostered dogs for a rescue for 2 years and with that learned so much. I cared for puppies (sometimes litters) all the way up to senior dogs. I enjoyed watching over 50 of my foster dogs get placed in permanent homes and will always enjoy meeting new furry friends. I’m comfortable and confident with behavior issues, health needs and funky quirks. I work full time as a dental hygienist in Anchorage. I have extra time in my schedule throughout the week and would love to fit your furry friend in! I have a dog of my own and we do just about everything together, your dog would get the same treatment. If your pup is okay with chilling at home while I’m working, we’ll spend our time outside of work together. *I am in San Antonio visiting my partner for a few weeks and wanting something to keep me busy. I’ll have lots of time to spend with your pet as I have nothing to do but hang out with them! I am a big safety enthusiast. I follow rules when it comes to pet care to a T. If you want your dog kenneled for their safety when I am out, they will always be kenneled. If you let me know the animal is an escape artist I am going to be a freak about making sure they are never given an opportunity to get out. Because of my experience volunteering with a rescue I have seen the worst case scenarios play out in real life and I am prepared to make sure nothing like that happens under my watch.

About: My name is Aubrie. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I’m not currently working, so my full time job would be caring for your pet! Daycare drop off and pickup hours are between 7 am and 7 pm. Any time after 7 pm would need to be booked as boarding and pickup for the following morning. I offer extended stays as well. I live in an apartment with the dog park on my same floor, so lots of running around and play time staying here with me and my pet! He is very social and loves to have company, friendly to other dogs and shares toys.

FAQs for House Sitting - Indian

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Indian is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $68 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 November 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Indian. 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 Indian 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 Indian 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 Indian 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 Indian. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
