“Ireyona is simply amazing! My dogs were well cared for and happy when I came home. She is an awesome communicator, and my house looked better than when I left it. Highly recommend!”
“Ashton did a wonderful job with our pups - our home was immaculately clean still when we returned. She was thoughtful with the dogs and just a great sitter. 10/10 would book again.”
“Kayden was great! You can tell she has a way of getting pets to quickly get close with her. My pup Roman is battling isolation anxiety, and was very happy to have Kayden come by. Not only that, but she went above and beyond with updates and even keeping my house very tidy! She goes above and beyond. I am super grateful for her and will be rebooking :)”
“Desiree was a great help! She took care of our two pups at our house while we were gone on a quick trip. Not only did she take great care of our pups & updates with pictures, but also kept our house clean. Would highly recommend & book again!”
“Autumn was amazing! My puppies and kitty cat had the best care while I was gone! I didn't think twice about their care because I knew how well taken care of they were. The house looked fantastic, and Autumn even brought in the mail, even though I had not specified that. The effort and the documentation were well above and beyond what I expected. Highly Highly recommend Autumn!”
“Jada did a wonderful job with our boys! She was very attentive and had great communication. While we were away she sent us plenty of pictures and made us feel at ease. Would definitely recommend and will book again in the future 😊”
“Isabella did a great job watching my dogs and dealing with one of my dogs having to take medication on a regular basis after an illness diagnosis just prior to the start of the booking. She does an amazing job with my dogs and kept me updated on my dog's condition”
“Daniel stayed with our two dogs for eight days. They were happy, eating and playful all week. He has been so good for our dogs when we are gone. He took care of all their needs and gave them play time in the yard. The house and the dogs were in great condition when we returned. He even folded blankets and left the place clean. He stayed a couple extra hours when our flights continued to get delayed just in case they were cancelled, and left calming dog channel on for them when he did leave. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“Victory did terrific job with my three dogs! Victory administered thyroid medicine for one of my dogs twice a day. Victory was also wonderful with my puppy, and total she had three dogs and did an amazing job. Thank you!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Jaime! She was absolutely amazing. Our dogs, Luna and Norman, adored her from the start, and it was clear they were well-loved and well-cared for while we were away. We came home to a spotless house — she even picked up the dog poop in the yard and washed the sheets she used, which went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be using Jaime again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”
About: I have had many dogs/cats my whole life and have grown up taking care of them. I will treat your pet with love and care because that is what any pet deserves! I am currently working part-time with very flexible hours so I will have the time to take care of your pet! I can pet sit during the week and the weekend. I will give your pet as much attention as they require! I will feed them and take them potty whatever times you need me too as well as walking them. They will always be taken care of with me!
“Bethany was amazing watching our pup while my boyfriend and I were on a 3 day trip. She let me know if something was going on with our dog and always responded. She sent plenty of pictures to us and I could tell our dog loved her. I totally recommend Bethany.”
“Katie took excellent care of our dogs and bearded dragon while we were away! She had great communication through out and sent pictures! She really went to extra mile when one pup was not feeling great. Thank you Katie!!”
“Lauren was wonderful with our boy Maxie this week. In fact the whole experience working with her from first introduction to us and to Max before booking her, through the care and to the end of our trip was all excellent. Max took to her right away, a big reassurance to us going off on our trip. Then each day of her time with him (pet sitting for a good portion of each day) she provided plenty of pictures and videos to let us know how things were going. Great communication and feedback. Lauren is highly recommended based on our experience, and we will definitely be booking her again! Very much appreciate all that she does.”
“Alex took care of my dogs amazingly!! He was very attentive and followed instructions to the tee. I loved how he sent me daily updates, photos, and brought any concerns that he had with the pups to my attention. I highly recommend him and will definately use him in the future. He cared for my pups as if they were his own and that made me very happy! He truly loved on and played with my pups when I wasn't there to do so myself. Thank you Alex!!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Iron Station
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Iron Station on Rover is $53.28 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 2,657 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Iron Station. 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 Iron Station 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 Iron Station 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 Iron Station 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.
