“We hired Gloria to take care of our cat, BJ, for a month. Because we were going to be away longer than she could stay, we had to hire someone else to cat-sit at the end of Gloria's stay. As this person had never cat-sat for us before, Gloria went above and beyond expectations by training the new caregiver and allowing the new caregiver to contact her if she had questions. In fact, at one point, when it sounded like there was a serious concern about our cat, Gloria even contacted us! So, essentially, she stayed "on duty" even though she was "off duty!" We were both thankful and impressed by her dedication to our cat (and us). Gloria treats and regards our cat as though he were her own fur baby! She loves him, and he loves her. We are fortunate to have found Gloria.”

“Cate was amazing with our three doggos. I came home from a weekend of being out of town to a happy home and happy doggos! She was responsive to messages and sent pics of our fur babies to put out minds at ease while away! Would definitely recommend Cate for your pet needs ♥️”

“Erin was awesome! My rather neurotic diva dog really took to Erin and her family. My baby girl did really well, because Erin took the time to get down on her level and give her lots of attention. I will be hiring Erin again for my next trip out of town.”

“Amanda was awesome! She took really good care of our puppies and our pig! She gave them lots of love, played with them, and made sure they were happy and well fed. One of our puppies has had two spinal surgeries so requires one to be really careful with steps and care. Amanda did a great job of being careful with her, and making sure she was safe.”

About: I am an animal lover and have had one or more dogs my entire life of different sizes and breeds. I have years of experience helping friends, neighbors, and family with their pets. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, hamsters, bunnies, and chinchillas. So I am happy to care for more than just dogs if needed. My services include house drop in visits, and dog walking. I am always open to creating customized care plans to suit individual client needs. I am very flexible and willing to work you to ensure your fur baby is happy, healthy, and comfortable in your absence. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to working with your and your animals!😇 *Prices may vary depending on level of care needed. I currently work a full time job, and come home on my lunch break everyday to check on my dog. There’s about 3 - 4 hours the dog may be left alone. So if you require dog boarding, your dog needs to be crate trained and I request that you bring their crate from home. I am willing to make exceptions just explain your situation. I have an unfenced at shared yard which my dog plays amazing in! Lots of space for the dogs to run and play. There are also some amazing trails and beach access near by that are perfect for nice walks.
About: I’ve had all kinds of dogs and cats from seniors, puppies/kittens and energetic teenagers. At the moment we have a 9 year old German Shepherd and dog sit our Great Dane and Doodle grand puppy’s. I’ve have never met an animal I didn’t love. I’m happy to drive as far as Portland to Olympia. I’m young retired and looking to help with your pet needs. At the moment I’m available for house sitting, pet walking or just popping in to play and feed your sweet family members. We take our pets safety seriously. We lock all gates from the inside of the yard. When the doorbell rings all our animals must sit on their beds so no one escapes. Meals are at the same time every day and of course lots of conversation, love and cuddles.
About: Hi! I’m Venus. I love traveling, so it is often that i’m away from home, but when I’m in town I have my booking open. I have had dogs and cats younger than I can remember, and love being around them. I’ve also pet-sit for various neighbors and family friends all throughout my childhood. You can absolutely trust me with any fur-baby, because I will treat them as my own. I work part time in Capitol Hill, so I am always walking and looking for something to do. I would love to be able to hangout with some pups throughout the day. I treat them like my own. I love animals, and love to gain their trust. Just hanging out with them and playing with them is fun for me. I have a large car as well for bigger pups.
“Samantha was very communicative, sent lots of pictures upon request and took great care of our home while we were away for five nights. We have three dogs which we know can be a handful and Samantha had no problem stepping up, walking them multiple times a day, cleaning them if needed, and left the home in great shape, with her bedding washed and folded. Would recommend. Thank you”

“I was super nervous about leaving my fur baby for our first vacation away, but Ally made everything run smooth and worry free. Wrigley just loved her and was so well looked after. She made sure to send plenty of pupdates & pictures to let us know how things were going back at home. She even took him for his first walk with another dog friend. So cute. Leaving your new puppy for the first time is so hard but I was at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend Ally if you want your fur babies well loved and looked after. We will be keeping her on speed dial for sure. :)”
“Brooklyn did a fantastic job watching our two morkies over a weekend period. We especially appreciated her proactive style of communication, her calm when dealing with any issues, and of course all the pictures of our pups throughout the day while we were away. Would definitely recommend her services and book with her again. Thanks Brooklyn!”


About: Hi, I’m Alyssa! I’ve been house sitting and caring for pets for years, and there’s nothing I love more than making sure animals feel safe, happy, and loved while their families are away. As a veterinary assistant, I bring both professional knowledge and hands on experience to every pet I care for. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds, whether your pet has four legs, feathers, scales, or tiny paws, I’m comfortable providing attentive, compassionate care that’s tailored to their individual needs. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make your time away as stress free as possible for both you and your pets. Whether it’s daily walks, administering medications, caring for farm animals, or simply giving plenty of love and attention, I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I do work full time, however I am willing to dedicate all of my time outside of work to your pets while you are away! I will follow whatever saftey measures you follow with your babies. I can safely navigate a flight risk pup or kitty. I am also comfortable with mild aggressive/snappy animals. I just want you to feel as little stress as possible while your babies are under my care!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since elementary school. Training horses and dogs has been my passion. Understanding dogs instincts and pack language helps me better serve their unique needs and personalities. My 35 years of animal care encompasses dog sitting, training, flying cross country on cabin with pup, breeding, and rearing physically and emotionally solid pups. I’ve ventured with my 4-legged buddies on hikes, walks, beach trips, long car drives, hotel stays, retirement homes, schools, river floats, horse rides, ranch work, and river walks. Living in the beautiful PNW there’s always fun to have with our pooches! I’m a work at home mom with four children and a beautiful tribe of animal, loving people. Kids and animals have routines to thrive. There’s always someone home to be with the dogs so no fur babe left behind on our watch. We go places the dogs can ride with us. Exploring the logging roads and nature walks are everyone’s favorite. Fenced yard and doggo doors allow for in and out as they please while at home. Routine starts with breakfast. Then it’s playtime with the kids while farm chores take place. If your dog eats 3x a day we’ll do lunch, more playtime, rest time since this is equally as important. Mental stimulation to stay sharp means using snuffle rugs, treat dispensers, hand feeding meals while reinforcing manners and obedience. My kids have a schedule and boundaries as do the animals giving everyone peace of mind.
“James was amazing! He took such great care of my pups! They seemed totally comfortable and at ease with him. I even got a photo of my anxious one so relaxed!!”

“Kristin was the most thorough and thoughtful pet sitter I could have ever asked for. She was so incredibly good with my older dog and two cats while on a trip away for a week. Every single day I got an update with pictures and video of the happy furry crew. I knew my pets were getting the very best care possible and it made being away from them so much easier on my heart. I would say that Kristin is hands down, the best caretaker for pets I have ever experienced. (I also will mention that we came back with a pristine house - Kristin took care of the house beautifully too. ❤️)”

Always open to every type of animal, even our scaly friends too. I'm always up for the job when it comes to our lovely best friends to be able to let them have the best experience they can get. Im always available ! every day has something going on. grooming, walking, play times, and its awesome! if I'm not walking an animal or grooming them I'm hanging out with them or showing them new places they have never been before or having different experiences everyday. I always give them love every second i get, always will be respectful to not only the animal but the owner as well and things that are set for me to do with their loved ones, and to show that they are well taken care of when you're away from home

About: I’ve been a house and pet-sitter for the past 10 years. I’ve cared for small farms, dogs, cats, chickens and goats. Some pets were on medication and had medical needs. I’m currently working but have options of working remotely allowing me the ability to care for fur-babies in their own home. I can keep feeding schedules, fresh water, pets and cuddles and provide a warm lap. I care for animals in their own home, maintaining their typical routines and care as well as going above and beyond—including sending photos and videos of the pets to their owners and showing them that all is well.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Longview is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Longview
Hannah has provided in-home dog sitting and care for my two miniature schnauzers on two separate occasions. I’ve appreciated her clear communication and updates as she has provided care for my dogs. This is my first experience using the Rover app and so far I have been happy with using this service. I have Hannah booked again for this coming weekend and I’m sure that I will continue to use her services. I’m happy to recommend her to anyone that is considering having in-home Dog care. It’s been a very positive experience for me.

Kate is wonderful! She cared for our two fur-babies, in our home, for five days. We also enjoyed three home play dates before our trip. I am convinced that my babies love her more. She took great care of our home and pups. I highly recommend her services. She is super clean, friendly, personable, and intelligent. Only a few things i love about Kate in the short time we’ve been acquainted. I might schedule more playdates just to have her over. Thank you Kate!!! You are a gem. 🐾💕🏡❤️🥇

You will not find a better sitter than Hannah! She took care of our large cane Corso, 2 cats (one of which has epilepsy), and hamster! She took pictures and gave us updates each day we were gone and we feel that we can trust her 100%. We love having Hannah take care of our fur babies!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Longview is $34 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $74 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 October 2026, there are 214 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Longview. 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 Longview 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 Longview 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 Longview 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.
