“Abigail was extremely flexible when plans with my other sitter fell through. She made sure to take the time to sit with my fur babies when there were fireworks outside and make them more comfortable. Highly recommend her as a sitter!!”
“Felecia was AMAZING and took incredible care of our pup and our home. It was especially helpful to know that over the holidays Poppy was cared for and loved by someone so thoughtful. Thank you again!”
“Vlad was wonderful! I had to head out of time in a pinch and he was ready & able. He took great care of my 2 pups and my home. I highly recommend Vlad!”
“Susie (Deborah) did a wonderful job watching our two cats and two dogs while we were on vacation for a week! The dogs are large and high energy, so I know that it was not easy work! She sent us photos and comments to reassure us that everything was going well. We’re so grateful we had her there!”
“Mitch took great care of Jeff and Xochitl again. We knew they were completely safe with him and he sent us pictures of them. We are so happy when he stays with them!”
“Nevaeh did a wonderful job watching my little dogs! She was caring, professional and kind! She followed all of my instructions and she even took my trash bins in from the outside on trash day. My older dog wouldn’t go upstairs to the guest room with her so instead of leaving him alone downstairs she chose to sleep downstairs with him which was very sweet. Everything was left perfectly clean and Punky and Wilbur were so well taken care of and happy. Thank you so much for your excellent care, Nevaeh!!”
“We had a great experience with Ruya! She took incredible care of our crew including a high-energy puppy, an elderly miniature pinscher with anxiety, and a very shy cat. All of them were calm, content, and clearly well-loved when we returned. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell how much love and dedication Ruya puts into her work. On top of that, the house was clean when we got back. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. I have already booked her for a future sitting”
“Easiest 5 stars for Mary Sue!!! Our girl got sooo many fun adventures this past week, we received at least 1 update every day and pics to go along, and we were so happy to see how much love she was getting while we were away! Mary Sue also took great care of our place and left us a clean home to come back to after our trip. We would be thrilled to have her back anytime, as would our Bumi !! <3”
“Thank you Mark & Sue! We had an amazing experience with Mark and Sue over Thanksgiving! They were awesome and extremely communicative the entire time. We loved getting lots of pictures and updates, which made us feel so at ease knowing our two dogs were safe, happy, and comfortable at home. They also came over for a meet-and-greet beforehand, which was incredibly helpful and gave us a great sense of confidence going into the trip. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for better care and would absolutely hire them again. Highly recommend!”
“Bree was fantastic with our 3 dogs! She provided tons of updates and we felt comfortable that they were in great hands the entire stay. We will absolutely book her again & highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Tessa watched our dog Canyon in our home for a week in March 2026. Tessa took excellent care of Canyon, provided us with periodic updates and pictures throughout her stay! As an over-the-top and unexpected gesture, Tessa even picked up the backyard, washed any linens she used during her stay, and left our home better than she found it. Tessa is now our preferred sitter and we will definitely ask her first when we next need a sitter.”
“Maria was amazing. She was so thorough with her communication and I felt completely at ease knowing that she was taking care of our baby. As long as she is available, we will requesting her services again and again!”
“Katie did a wonderful job taking care of my puppy! She sent updates throughout the day and was quick to respond to my messages. Best of all, my dog Milo seemed to really get along well with her, so I knew he was in good hands!”
“Mary-Ellen was excellent and took great care of our dog Milo! He was very happy when we came home and she sent us just enough updates to give us peace of mind while we were away.”
“We can’t rave enough about Nathanniel! Anytime we need a pet sitter we hope that he is available because he takes such good care of our boys! Cannot recommend him enough.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Littleton
We found Tamarine prior to a 10-day trip out of the country. We have 2 dogs and live in a rural area that can present some unusual circumstances. She was amazing. She had just the right approach, with calm energy and a great attitude. She communicated with us every day and sent us pictures to let us see that everything was going well. The house was cleaner when we got home than when we left. Honestly, it was like having a good friend stay at the house while we were gone. We will absolutely be contacting her the next time we travel and need a sitter. I recommend her services without reservation. She's great!
Heather is amazing! On short notice Heather came over to meet our dog and understand our needs for an overnight stay while I was traveling. Hurley took to her very quickly and had a great time with her while I was away. I would use Heather for sitting or walking Hurley again and again!
Jenny was awesome taking care of my cats Odin and Coco! She was very communicative with updates and sending pics and videos of them, and they definitely took a liking to her as well :) she took great care of my home too and was super accommodating/replied quickly allowing me to extend my trip twice. It was such a relief to have her help and I'd book her again in a heartbeat!
Madeline is the absolute best!!! She stayed at our house for 3 nights and took the best care of our dogs. We got so many videos from her and the pups looked sooo happy. She walked them, gave them treats, snuggled them in the couch. It’s so nice to get videos from a dogsitter to know that they are happy and being taken care of! She also left the house really clean, even stripped the bed. She’s very kind and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for dogsitting, walking, or whatever your needs are!
This is the 2nd time Mariesa has cared for our two dogs and she was wonderful while we were away for 11 days! She sent us photos and updates, which were appreciated. She made sure they had enough play time and had their medications. The house was also immaculate when we returned, which we really appreciated!. We highly recommend her as a sitter!
Tessa was AMAZING! She met our dogs before the week she sat with them and was very thorough in preparing. While we were gone she sent us text updates and pics through the app so we could see how happy and relaxed our pups were the whole time. One of our dogs turned 9 while we were gone and Tessa celebrated with her, and gave both dogs their scheduled heartworm medicine. She also helped with various minor household things (brought the mail in, put the trash out) and was just all-around a great sitter! We'd definitely ask her to watch Cheyenne and Callie again!
We always love to have Jo watch our fur babies. She always is so attentive and careful with them. We have a senior dog and she follows his medication and care directions so carefully. Jo is fabulous and would 100% recommend to anyone who needs someone to watch their animals.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Littleton is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 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 November 2026, there are 8,486 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Littleton. 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 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.
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 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Littleton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
