“Jane was beyond great! She shared photos of our pups while she watched them at our home. The house was left spotless, and she even washed the sheets! I'll definitely book again.”
“Sara was FANTASTIC and we could not recommend enough. We left for 10 days to Hawaii, she took great care of our German Shepherd Levi, sent us consistent updates, and took amazing care of our home. He looked so happy in every picture we received. This was the longest we’ve ever been away from our dog and she made the process so seamless and not stressful at all.”
“Leona truly did an amazing job. She’s very responsive, very timely and keep us well updated. She went above and beyond cleaning up. Would highly recommend her and would definitely ask her again to watch our furry fellas!”
“Caleb went above and beyond watching our three dogs (2 Golden retrievers and pit mix) and our two cats. He made sure they were well taken care of and really took the time to make sure they were happy and healthy while we were away. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, I highly recommend Caleb. I would give him 10 stars if I could!!!”
“Rachel connected easily with my dog and was very responsive and attentive during the 4 days of watching him. She left my apartment in great condition, and sent me photos regularly. I would be happy to book with Rachel in the future.”
“He is a great sitter, extremely kind to us and loving to our pets, who can be a handful. He went above and beyond what one expects, and I am looking forward to him taking care of our fur kids again”
“Curtis was very diligent at house sitting. It was m first trip having her and he was able to keep her occupied and meet her demands. It was very reassuring to get all of his photos. It helped me know that she was doing well. I am excited for my next trip because I am sure that she will be in great hands!”
“Alyssa was an amazing sitter. She communicated the entire time and even alerted me to when one of my animals became ill. She was very responsible, clean, and communicative. Definitely will continue to use her services.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for the past five years. I’ve been reliable in walking, feeding, and all around caring for friends pets and look forward to being able to do that for others! I love hikes and walks, so I’m eager to keep pets active, but am always down for a good pet cuddle. I never grew up with dogs or cats of my own, so pet sitting has been a consistent way for me to get all the animal loving I need! I am a college student and work part-time, so I’m used to having a consistent routine and managing my time responsibly. During pet sitting visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, food, and playtime throughout the day. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks or getting outside with them when possible. For overnight stays, I’m able to settle into the pet’s normal routine and make sure they have plenty of companionship and care while their owners are away. I’m happy to follow each pet’s established schedule and routines so they feel comfortable and at home. I have my own car, so can easily make it to a home at any point, whether that be over a few nights or just a quick visit. I am experienced with dogs and cats of all sizes and am willing to adjust to whatever meets your needs best.
“Kalea did a great job, it was our first time leaving the animals with a pet sitter and Kalea was very patient and understanding with our nervousness. She made our animals top priority during Christmas and did a great job checking in on them and sending us status updates. Look forward to booking again.”
“Mary was very good with our dogs! She kept us informed and sent several photos to us. We will reach out to her again when we need help with caregiving again!”
“Hailey took such good care of our 3 pups and kept in contact with us via messages and pictures, all which made us very happy and helped keep our peace of mind! Thank you Hailey!”
“Mitch was amazing!!! he took great care of my dog and cat and he showed a lot of flexibility to meet my needs as I was flying out early and flying home late. I greatly appreciate. Just having the faith that my two loved ones were taken care of so well. I will book him again at any time he’s available in the future thanks Mitch you’re awesome!”
“THE BEST! Austin is a kind, communicative, responsible dog lover. He took excellent care of my dogs and my home! He went above and beyond to ensure a great experience. HIGHLY highly recommend. ,”
“Madeline went above and beyond during her stay! She was on time, provided exceptional cared for my animals & house, and sent me plenty of videos/pictures for me while I was gone. She even cleaned up the guest room when she didn’t have too as well. She was absolutely AMAZING and would recommend her any day of the week!”

Sierra did an amazing job taking care of our 2 pups while we were gone. She was so communicative, sent lots of pictures and walked them every day. We are so thankful she took such good care of our babies. We will definitely be asking her to keep them in the future if she’s interested!
Matt and his girlfriend stayed at my house for two nights to take care of my senior cat. He did a great job. He was super quick to respond to my messages, sent me updates, and followed the instructions for meds and supplements very well (and there are a lot!) I would love to use him again.
Eva was fantastic, came for a visit before the weekend, then spent 4 nights with Arnie. He was shy initially and out of sorts, first pet sitter after being rescued 5 months ago. Eva brought him along slowly and by the time we came home Arnie and Eva were doing great! Eva did a great job. Arnie made a huge step with this weekend, and we’re grateful to Eva for her work with him!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ken Caryl on Rover is $52.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,659 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ken Caryl. 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 Ken Caryl 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 Ken Caryl 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 Ken Caryl 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.
