“Liz was awesome! Our fur babies loved her! She sent several pics even though she stayed 1 night. When we got home, everything was nice and neat. We highly recommend Liz and would definitely use her again!”
“Kayla was absolutely incredible with our pups. She made the effort to learn them individually and love on them as if they were her own. We always have such a hard time leaving our pups, especially since they are high energy and big lovers, but we felt so confident in Kayla, as she kept us updated, sent us daily pictures of their cuddle sessions, and just took the very best care of them and the house. I 100% would recommend her to anyone!!”
“Amber was awesome! Our pups can sometimes get in a funk with each other and we were worried about leaving them for the first time. Amber asked thorough questions and kept a close eye on them! They had a great time!”
“Mary was fantastic with Ricky and Riley. She really made them feel at home in my absence. Whether it was playing with them in the backyard or comforting them in a thunderstorm, she was professional and diligent. I strongly recommend her services, and I know I will be calling her again.”
“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”
“Can’t say enough wonderful things about Kaitlyn! She is super polite, showed up on time, and took great care of our pup. She also went above & beyond, sending us regular updates about our pup while we were away. We already have her booked for our next trip. We highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for an attentive and caring sitter!”
“Jordan is an amazing dog sitter, excellent communication, professional and our dogs love her. I was able to fully enjoy being away because she was taking wonderful care of our dogs. Will definitely have her sit again!”
“My wife and I had the opportunity to take a 3 1/2 week trip out of the country. We weren’t sure what to do with our fur babies because it was too long to put either of them in a kennel. We looked at Rover‘s website and found Jenna who agreed to watch our fur babies in our home for the duration of our trip. Our beagle is a rescue who has a number of special needs due to abuse as a puppy. Jenna did a wonderful job of watching both our beagle and our kitty cat for the time we were gone. It’s obvious Jenna loves animals and we will certainly book her again if we ever need to leave town for an extended period. We highly recommend Jenna as that only a pet sitter, but a house sitter as well.”
“Ciera was the kindest soul, very professional, communicative, extremely orderly and punctual and just by how our pups were when we returned home we can tell they were loved and treated well in our absence! Ciera is wonderful for drop-ins or for house sitting! We would trust her with either! We are grateful we found her and would love to hire her again without hesitation! Thank you a million times Ciera!❤️”
“Avary did an amazing job watching my for baby and chickens for the weekend. They were well taken care of and the house was left the way I left it. My only complaint is I wish she sent me more pictures. Definitely will book again.”
“Kristen is the best! She sat for ourGreat Danes and took care of them like they were her own! The house was cleaner when I got home than when we left. This was the first time we got to go away and not stress about our pups! She sent pictures, videos, and checked in with us every day. Thank you Kristen!!”
“We have had Mark sit at our house twice now and couldn’t be more happy. We have a high energy, large, 1 year old golden retriever and Mark is excellent with him! He leaves our house as clean as we left it and it’s like he wasn’t even here when we get home (the only clue is our dog is more well behaved once we get home). He sends us pictures of our pup and is a trustworthy person to have at our home.”
“McKinnon was great. She made sure to take great care of our dog that has some medical needs. Would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their pet.”
“Taylor did an amazing job with our two dogs and cat. She has incredible communication skills, and provides proactive updates including photos and videos. Our animals responded positively to Taylor from Day 1. She asks all the right questions at the right time. We look forward to using her again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Serenity took wonderful care of our animals just as requested. She came a day before to meet them, was on time, and our dog took to her immediately. Would definitely rebook with her in the future is needed!”
About: I have had dogs big and small throughout my whole life. Within having these dogs I have bathed, brushed, walked, let out to potty, fed and gave water, and played with these animals! I have a medium sized dog of my own that I love and cherish. If anyone would like to I could always bring my sweet baby to play if needed! I am very attentive and loving. Even though I have no professional experience, I know all the things that are required to take care of pups! I am looking forward to taking care of your babies! I currently have a full time job Monday-Friday but if I have a scheduled appointment I could take off early just need an advance. I play, walk, let out to potty, feed and give water as well as bathe if needed. I make sure all pets are safe and well taken care of.
“This was my first time leaving my babies Maggie and Milo for a trip and I was absolutely terrified of it. I was very worried about Maggie in particular because she has separation anxiety and doesn’t warm up to strangers. When Elizabeth saw that Maggie wouldn’t eat whatsoever, she went to the store and bought some food that helped with her appetite. She even took Milo to the vet since nobody else could take him and began administering his meds. I struck gold with Elizabeth who went above and beyond to gain their trust and take care of them. She also did all she could to reassure me and has won my trust. She took such good care of my dogs and I highly recommend her. Definitely will be having her dog sit my babies again when necessary!”
“Robyn did a superb job caring for our senior dog and senior cat. This was our first experience using Rover and the experience was so easy from start to finish. Our dog had a small medical issue while we were gone and she handled it so well. I do think our cat is having withdrawals from all the attention he got. We will definetly use Robyn again and would highly recommend her!”
“Patricia has been watching my babies off and on before she joined Rover. now it’s good to have a platform to schedule the times! I must say one of my dogs love her more than me hahaha. She treats them like her own babies! Given I have two large dogs it’s nice she has a huge yard for them To run around in and they feel like she’s their second mom. Could not say enough nice things about her and how happy my dogs are with her. I think they have so much fun they don’t want to come home 😔. 5 stars!”

Hannah is absolutely fantastic! From the moment she walked in for the meet-and-greet, my dogs gravitated toward her instantly. It’s rare to find someone who connects with them that quickly. Throughout the booking, she was incredibly punctual and communicated extremely well, sending updates that kept my mind at ease. I especially appreciated her attention to detail—she followed all instructions perfectly and was professional enough to check with me before deviating from the usual routine. Most importantly, she didn't just 'check the boxes'; she spent quality time giving my girls the attention and affection they crave. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!
Kristen P. is fantastic! She knows what she's doing - how to tend to the needs of pets with different personalities and requirements. We just moved to Georgia with our 5 dogs but had to return to the west coast to pack up our house. So our dogs were in a new environment and did not have us around to feel secure. Rover provided many options for us and Kristen P. was the perfect sitter for us. She provided that secure feeling for our dogs in their new home while we were away. She provided photos and daily updates of the dogs' progress. Kristen P. is perfect in our home and with our animals and we will definitely call on her again. Thank you Kristen P.!!!
This was our first time using this app, and our first time using a dog sitter we didn't already know beforehand. We felt very comfortable using Dastin and he was great with our two pups! Very respectful, stayed in touch, and even sent pictures of our boys throughout his stay. 10/10 recommend and definitely plan on using him again!
We absolutely loved having Ashtyn care for our house and dogs while we were away! We had unexpected health concerns for one of our dogs who needed medications and more care and Ashtyn accepted and provided that care without question. She kept us updated on how our dogs were doing throughout our trip! And she left our home clean and tidy! We can’t say enough great things about her and will certainly request that she house sit again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Keithsburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Keithsburg on Rover is $42.8 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 3,810 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keithsburg. 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 Keithsburg 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 Keithsburg 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 Keithsburg 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 Keithsburg. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
