“Bridgett was amazing!!! She communicated with us about how our animals days went and she sent lots of pictures. She took care of our home and plants as well. Bridgett really seems to care about the quality of the service she is providing AND she truly cares for animals. Rare combination these days. We’ll be sure to book her for our future pet needs.”
“Absolutely the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! He’s now at the top of our list for future dog care needs. Our dogs are already attached to him. Kevin is a dog lover and it shows on our dogs’ faces. They even made sure to get in cuddles and say goodbye before Kevin left. Top-notch dog care. We can tell they were well-cared for. And, we came home to a freshly cleaned house which he did not have to do, but we can say it was so nice to walk in to this surprise. Kevin is a true pro and should start his own business as he’s simply the best! Thank you Kevin so very much for being so great to our pups and to us! Your gentle soul and genuine love for dogs makes you extra special! We love Kevin! Thanks again!”
“Emily was amazing house sitting for us! She’s so patient with our crazy dogs and left the house in great condition! She was great at providing updates everyday and so easy to get ahold of. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Patricia is one of the kindest and considerate sitters I have booked on Rover. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind soul to care for your pets and will most definitely be booking future stays with her.”
“Zoe was able to watch Ardbeg for a weekend getaway - jumping in on very short notice. She took fantastic care of Ardbeg and kept us updated with lots of cute photos. We can tell that he had a fabulous time!”
“Brittany was a GREAT sitter! She was able to come for a meet and greet before the sit which was so helpful. She’s lovely and kind and loved Tilly. We received daily messages and photos and the house was in great shape when we returned. Will definitely call on her again. She’s a gem!!”
“Shawn took great care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats; especially my one dog who is reactive towards other dogs. He gave updates and pictures and made me feel better about leaving them with someone while I went home. He also was super helpful and flexible by being able to watch them an extra day when my flight had to be rebooked to the next day due to delays. If I didn’t travel for work (I’m only here for another 2 weeks) I would absolutely rebook with Shawn.”
“Matt was a fantastic pet sitter for our cats, Zuko and Winnie. We always had very clear communication, he sent us great pictures every day, and he took great care of our cats and our house. Our cats loved him.”
“Melisa was wonderful! She provided us updates and photos while we were gone and did a very thorough meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everything was all set before she stayed. Our dogs loved her and we would definitely recommend her.”
“Devan is outstanding! She was the first sitter we’ve ever used for our senior cat and we felt completely in tune with his health and wellbeing while we traveled, all thanks to Devan. Her timely updates, photos, and thorough notes helped us prepare for a vet visit and we could tell our boy, Tom, loved spending time with her! She was even willing to learn an injection technique to give Tom his daily steroid. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Ellie was so patient with our timid, reactive dog, Olive! She asked all the right questions, took time to learn Olive's quirks, and provided lots of great feedback throughout our trip. Being over 5000 miles away and an 8 hour time difference, it was important we had someone we could trust both with our pup as well as our home and Ellie was a perfect fit. Got lots of photos of Olive cuddled up next to her and she even searched the house for Ellie the day after she left. Will definitely use Ellie on another trip!”
“Jody was wonderful! She arrived on time and communicated so well with me, providing updates and photos! I can tell my babies were relaxed with her and well taken care of, will definitely be reaching out next time we need a sitter! Thanks again!”
“When our regular dog sitter had to cancel due to an unexpected illness we made our way back onto rover to search for a replacement. We contacted Val, who responded quickly and was available. It was within a couple days of our trip and Val immediately initiated a meet and greet so as to make sure the fit was good and to go through some important information about the caregiving of our dog at our house. We found Val to be caring, mature and responsible and felt very comfortable with our selection. Val showed up on time, took great care of our little girl (doggy) and our house. We were so thankful to have been able to relax on our trip away with family. Thank you Val!”
“Sapphire did an amazing job taking care of my cat and housesitting while I was out of town! The apartment was as I left it, the cat was a happy boy, and she followed his care instructions to a T. Sapphire is communicative, helpful, and great with my critter—we'll definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
“Dylan is the best!! She stayed in our home with our two very active dogs for a full week. She stayed in touch daily with written updates and fabulous pictures of our fur babies. We returned to a house that was cleaner than we left it. Dylan also cared for outdoor plants as well as my seedling garden that needed daily checks for water and light. She took great care of our dogs and our place with amazing attention to detail. We will definitely rebook with her.”
“Rachael was so great! She was extremely communicative with lots of updates and pictures. It was clear my babies were happy and well taken care of! We will definitely be using Rachael again!”

Genna housesat for us, watching our pittie over the weekend. He said he had a great time, lol! Looks like the cooling unit went out and she suffered through and took care of him and herself. Really appreciate her communication and responsiveness and her good care of our doggo!
Bridgett was amazing!!! She communicated with us about how our animals days went and she sent lots of pictures. She took care of our home and plants as well. Bridgett really seems to care about the quality of the service she is providing AND she truly cares for animals. Rare combination these days. We’ll be sure to book her for our future pet needs.
Kevin is an exceptional dog and house sitter! He took wonderful care of my two senior pups, one of which requires daily medications, a special diet and extra care. He was responsible, communicative, and detail oriented. He was gentle and a clear animal lover (my dogs loved him the moment they met him). So glad to have connected with Kevin and will absolutely be using him for any future pet sitting needs. I really can't say enough wonderful things about our experience. Thank you!!
Emily was absolutely amazing! She kept us updated throughout our entire trip with regular messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond; not only did she take incredible care of our girls, but she also took such great care of our home. We came back to happy pups and an incredibly clean house, which was such a wonderful surprise after traveling. It’s obvious that Emily genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Arianna did such a great job looking after our three dogs while we were gone for 10 days. She communicated with us every day and was on top of all three dogs individual care. Our almost 13 year old senior dog was having some mobility issues towards the end of our trip, Arianna let us know right away and was very helpful and flexible in making sure he was taken care of until we got home. We could tell our dogs and home were well taken care of when we got home. Highly recommend!
I used to have a consistent dog sitter I loved who recently moved away and I gave Logan a try for the first time when searching for someone new. She did an amazing job! She really went the extra mile and also kept me updated on how it was going. I would definitely book with her again!
Dylan is wonderful and took great care of our sweeties. She also took great care of the house! Our dog is older and needs cooked food and Dylan was kind enough to cook extra for us to come home to after our travels. Thank you so much for making our time away stress free!
11/10 rating for Maria S.! Having just moved back to the Longmont area, we were so lucky to find and book Maria on short notice right before Memorial Day weekend. Maria was prompt and professional in her initial responses and her communications (with plenty of pics) throughout her stay with our 3 pets. Most importantly, Maria went out of her way to ensure she was prepared to watch our reactive cattle dog Cedar, she demonstrated the calm confidence he needs to feel comfortable right off the bat. By request, she met us outside of our home for our initial meet and greet which made a night and day difference for Cedars territorial reactivity. Maria asked all the right questions and took her time to really get to know our dogs, which made us feel comfortable that she was the right fit for our crazy crew. When we returned from our trip everyone was calm and happy! We'll definitely be booking with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone who struggles finding care for reactive pets. Thanks Maria!

FAQs for House Sitting - Longmont
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Longmont on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 8,156 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Longmont. 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 Longmont 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 Longmont 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 Longmont 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
