“Alexandria was super communicative and such a pleasure. My dog had a great time with her and I didn’t have to worry while I was away one bit, looking forward to hiring Alexandria again!”
“Kiara did a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat last weekend, keeping them on a good feeding and walking schedule, hanging out with them, and providing medicine to my cat. She was responsive in a very timely manner, keeping me posted on how things were going throughout the weekend, with texts ad photos. My house was in perfect shape when I got home and my dog and cat were happy -- the best evidence that they had been well cared for and completely at ease with their sitter. Thanks, Kiara!!”
“Although this was her first time staying with my dog Ruben, Kayleigh went above and beyond to take excellent care of my dog Ruben. She was very kind and patient with him knowing how attached he was to me. Kayleigh took the time to try to get to know Ruben as much as she could to learn what his needs and happiness were. She made Ruben's needs her top priority. She was there for him day and night and made me feel that Ruben was in excellent hands. I would highly recommend her!”
“Gabrielle went out of her way to handle a medical emergency for our dog while we were in Peru. Our dog got into some medicine, so Gabrielle called our vet, and she called the animal hospital, and called poison control. She kept us informed all along the way and we really appreciate how much she cares about our dog! And her knowledge on what to do in an emergency really impressed us!”
“This is the first time I had someone stay in my home to care for Chica. Alexys was great. She came by the house the day before we were leaving for a meet and greet. She arrived on time, stayed one night overnight, washed the sheets and made the bed. That was above and beyond. And Chica was happy. I would definitely use Alexys again and recommend her to anyone need pet sitting/walking services.”
“Bill was absolutely outstanding. He stayed at our place while we’re out of the country for a little over a week. He took incredible care of our two golden retrievers and sent many updates and pictures of them. He was prompt and took great care of our house while we were away. We will definitely be booking Bill again for his services!”
“Ashley was amazing! Kept us updated all the time, took some amazing pictures of Gunner and wasn’t afraid of the challenge to take care of our anxious boy!! We felt very comfortable leaving and knowing our pets were going to be cared for and loved!!”
“Porsche was a top tier babysitter. She watched our fur children for a total of ten days and they loved her! Our reticent cat left her perch and would follow her around for pets! Porsche is definitely a pet whisper and her love of animals is clear in all of her interactions with them. Would 1000% want her to pet sit again.”
“Dominique took fantastic care of our elderly pug. She provided tons of photos and updates, and went above and beyond to keep him feeling happy and comfortable. Thanks again!”
“Brittany was awesome with Libby, super information and forthcoming when Lib grabbed something she shouldn’t have had. I am so grateful for her attentiveness and honesty!”
“Clare is very good with both our dog and cat. Both pets ‘like’ her which is an accomplishment when you consider the cat. Also, she responds quickly to messages and has been flexible with us. Definitely recommend Clare for folks who are looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”
“Hanna is amazing. She's super responsible, gave my pup loads of love and took great care of my house, including when the roof started leaking in the rain. She communicates as often as you want, sends adorable pictures and videos and asks questions if she's not sure of anything. My dog has already requested her again. I'll certainly hope she's available next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Always such a great caretaker for our animals. They have provided so much help with last minute assistance with our animals. TreDerica is incredibly communicative and has always shared so many pictures with us while we are away. Will happily book multiple times !”
“Claire did an amazing job house sitting for us! She took great care of our two pups and was super patient with our Aussie who is nervous around new people. She was a fantastic communicator, telling us when she was about to arrive and before she left the stay. We will definitely use her for future dogsitting!”
“Aileen took amazing care of our pup Jack. It was only the 2nd time we’ve ever left him alone with someone else and she had us at ease the entire time. From providing frequent updates, to going above and beyond to care for him, we couldn’t be happier that we chose her. She always took great care of our home during her stay. We can’t recommend Aileen enough & will absolutely be using her again in the future.”
“Quanece and Malik were wonderful pet sitters for our senior cat with medical needs! They texted us each morning to let us know that our cat took her meds and frequently sent us pictures of her. They arrived promptly and were very clean and respectful of our home. We will 100000% be using them for our next extended vacation!”
“Dana took wonderful care of my pup Atticus while I was away and kept me updated with pictures and texts the whole time so I knew Atticus was in good hands. Dana and Atticus clicked right away, even though Atticus can sometime be weary of new people. Atticus definitely got lots of exercise and attention while I was away, and I was happy to see him smiling when I got home. I would highly recommend Dana!!!”
“Julie accepted my last-minute booking without hesitation, and I'm so grateful she was available! She was incredibly responsive, kept me updated, followed every instruction perfectly, and took the sweetest pictures of my dog. It was clear my dog felt comfortable and loved being with her. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. I truly wish I could give more than 5 stars!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Morris
Alexandria is always so responsive and flexible - she takes great care of our fur babies but also is so easy to work with, it makes the process of going away for a trip so much less stressful! She always updates us with any info about our pets, but definitely has the experience to know what is a big deal and what isn't. Having someone at home that we trust makes a world of difference!
Brittany was absolutely terrific with my senior Labrador Retriever, Bleu! She went above and beyond during her 4-day stay. On day one, Brittany arrived early to carefully review Bleu’s medication schedule. She kept me updated constantly, texting me every time Bleu got her medicine, went for walks, and even when she stepped out for lunch. She also sent beautiful daily photos. When Bleu experienced some constipation, Brittany immediately drove to the grocery store to buy pumpkin and bone broth to help ease her symptoms. She monitored her closely and updated me the moment Bleu was fully recovered. Brittany is incredibly reliable, and I always knew Bleu was in the safest hands. We feel so incredibly lucky to have found her!
Jessica’s was wonderful with my pets she stayed took care of them and they were very happy and very comfortable with her. I could see that when we first did the meet and greet. My pets were very happy when I came home and I could tell that we’re well taken care of. I would definitely use Jessica again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Morris
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Morris on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,445 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Morris. 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 Morris 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 Morris 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 Morris 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Morris. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
