“Lara did an exceptional job of caring for our kitty, Finn. Making sure someone was with him when schedule changes came up, and working with us when we had a travel emergency as well. She is kind, caring, responsive and responsible. Highly recommend!”
“Conrad was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was very happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and pictures were sent as requested. We will definitely be using Conrad’s services again in the near future.”
“Mitch was great with our recent rescue. Our pup had only been in the house 2 weeks and Mitch handled our dog with poise. There was the usual alert barking one might expect, but within a minute our dog was fine approaching him, receiving pets, and in less than 5 minutes our dog was on the rug laying down quietly. Mitch knows dogs, I am very comfortable with him watching our dog anytime.”
“Daria gave my dog attention and walked her every day. She tried to comfort her when a storm was near which really frightenes my dog. Daria also let my dog sleep with her. I recommend her when you need someone to take care of your pet.”
“Rachel was amazing! She stayed at the house and took care of our two dogs - the boys were well cared for and clearly had a good time. She kept the house clean and tidy and was great at communicating. We would definitely have her come back and stay!”
“Another great weekend away with our pup in the trusted hands of Rebecca and her dog pistol. It’s so nice to have a great sitter you can trust to take amazing care of your pets! She’s punctual, professional, follows directions, and sends the best pictures!”
“Mary Sue deserves more than 5 stars. She went above and beyond for our 3 hounds! We will definitely be rebooking for our future needs! She kept us updated multiple times throughout each day and gave us picture updates to ensure our dogs were in great hands! Our place was clean when she left and our dogs were beyond happy which is everything we wanted after coming back home from a long trip! Would definitely recommend Mary Sue and he will use her again in the future!”
“Sara was great! Our dog was a little nervous at first and Sara was super patient and willing to come a bit early to make sure our dog was more comfortable. She sent pictures while we were away and stayed with our dog for basically the whole day! We’re thankful we found her and would totally use her again.”
“First time that I have used an in house dog sitter, and Rhonda was great! I ended up having her meet Roxie twice, as Roxie had some health issues that had changed, and Rhonda was prepared for anything! She even kept a notebook with her own notes as well. She adhered to Roxie’s walk schedule and feeding schedule multiple times a day that also included many supplements. Daily reports were given. House was tidy when I came home. Rhonda kept my mind at ease as this was the first time leaving my senior dog for so many days. Would definitely recommend!”
“Jonathan was great! Arrived on time (actually a bit early), sent lots of photos and updates, and my fur babies really enjoyed spending time with him. My 7 year old terrier, Charlie, has epilepsy, and we don't leave him alone, and I felt confident that Jonathan could handle things if he had a seizure. I plan to use him again and again. Thank you!”
“Thanks Morgan! The nightly updates were a great addition. It was nice to know our two dogs were in good hands when we were away. We appreciate you looking over them.”
“This was our first time using Maggie as a sitter. She rescued us at the last minute because the other sitter canceled. I started a search for a replacement at 10:30 at night, Maggie responded and, by midnight, we scheduled a Meet and Greet for 1pm the next day. She let me know when she was on her way and arrived promptly. She met Chat, the cat, asked great questions about his food and schedule and about the house since she would be staying for 4 days. Maggie also communicated her own schedule. She sent daily pictures of Chat. The house was tidy when I returned and Chat was safe and happy. So grateful for Maggie saving my vacation at the last minute and doing a fine job. We will definitely request Maggie in the future!”
“Shannon watched our dogs for the first time last weekend on short notice and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, sent pictures of our doggies, and took them on walks and frequently let them out. Will definitely rely on her again soon!”
“Mary took such good care of our fur baby. She sent pictures and updates. Mary has stayed in our home before. She is clean and responsible. Would definitely recommend her. We will ask her to stay with Koda again.”
“Allison was absolutely wonderful. She was super communicative, obviously very sweet with the dogs, helpful and flexible when I forgot to get wet food and she picked some up on the way for me. She's great and I would love to have her again.”
“Brooke did amazing with our anxious senior dog and cat. She was on time and communicated throughout. She stayed at our home for a few hours and did a great job. Will rebook soon.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Littleton
Lexie was great with our 10 week old puppy! We felt completely comfortable leaving our puppy in Lexie’s care, and Lexie was even able to introduce clicker training while our puppy was in her care! We will definitely be repeat clients for any future pet sitting or training needs.
Tim is a superb pet sitter! Certainly among the very best. He has a gentle nature and my dogs loved him. The house was impeccable when we got back. Even with my younger dog still in a very mouthy chewy phase he managed her very well. I would definitely book him again!
We just got back from 8 nights away while Shaylyn watched our crew of two cats and two dogs. There were a variety of needs, directions and personalities, but everything went super smooth and we came home to everything just as we left it. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Shaylyn!
Amy was absolutely wonderful! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took excellent care of our pets, including our diabetic kitty who requires insulin twice daily. Her communication was fantastic throughout our trip, with regular updates, pictures, and videos that gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring, even going above and beyond to make sure everything at home was taken care of. It was such a relief knowing our furry and scaly family members were in such good hands! We came home to happy pets and everything in perfect order. We would absolutely trust Amy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Amy!
Chelsea has stayed at our home a couple times and each time we return to happy animals and a clean home. During our time away, Chelsea is always very communicative and sends us daily pictures with a daily report. We appreciate her very much, and so do my girls.
Heather saved the day when my other Rover sitter called in the morning and told me she was sick. Thank goodness Heather was available to watch Lucy (same day booking)! She was really great with her, snuggling and playing all day and night. She also kept me updated throughout the stay and sent lots of photos. I would love to have Heather watch my little Lucy again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Littleton is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $72 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.

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 Littleton 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 Littleton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Littleton 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.
