“We have used Cacy the last couple times for our three crazy dogs and she has been so wonderful! It is usually very last minute and she has been extremely accommodating and we have a special needs dog that she has taken very good care of. We couldn’t recommend her enough for your animals!”

“I booked Ivy to watch my two big babies, my Rottweiler King and my pit bull Kammie, while I was away on a cruise, and I couldn’t be happier with the care they received. 🐾 Communication was great the entire time—she kept me updated with messages and pictures, and I never had to worry. King and Kammie can be a handful, but they were clearly comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My house was clean, the dogs were calm, and honestly, they seemed like they got their own little vacation too. King especially misses his new friend and kept looking around the house for Ivy after I got home. That alone tells me everything about how well they were treated. If you’re looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and amazing with large breeds, I highly recommend Ivy. I will definitely be booking again! 💙”

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have over 10 years of experience caring for them. I grew up showing cattle, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing animals with proper care and attention. I’ve always had a huge love for animals of all kinds. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable. I will treat your pets like my own and make sure they receive the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am currently a college student at Kansas State University, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I love spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy doing in my free time. I’m happy to work around my class schedule to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention to make sure your pets are happy and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! Growing up showing cattle taught me the importance of being responsible, patient, and attentive when caring for animals. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I will always do my best to follow the instructions you provide. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I want your pets to feel safe and comfortable. I will also make sure to keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pets are in good hands!

“I truly can’t express enough how amazing Kaylyn was while watching our pup, Morty. After losing his brother suddenly last month, I was incredibly anxious about leaving Morty alone for the first time in years. Kaylyn went above and beyond with taking care of Morty. She was amazing with keeping me in the loop on his nervous tummy, being with him for as long as he needed, and constantly giving us the peace of mind that he was in the best capable hands possible. She’s our personal hero right now and we can’t wait to have her watch Morty again.”

“Sam is excellent with our 3 fur babies! She’s caring, trustworthy, and treats our dogs as her own! While away I didn’t have to worry if the dogs were cared for as Sam is very prompt to respond and makes sure to send plenty of pictures and videos. Our skiddish dog even loved seeing Sam when she came to care for them! I will be using Sam again!”

About: I’ve take care dogs since I was 7 always around dogs and always helping neighbors with their dogs. It is the best environment that I love to in it. I’m currently working on base but I’m always available after 5 pm and weekends for walking daily after 5 pm or staying with me if someone needs to travel. I have a fenced backyard and friendly dog that loves to play so I have enough space for more dogs and toys for them to play.

FAQs for House Sitting - Keats

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Keats is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $54 and $59 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 119 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keats. 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 Keats 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 Keats 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 Keats 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.

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.
