“Kyra was absolutely wonderful with our three dogs! Unfortunately, we had an unexpected medical emergency with one of our pups during our trip, and Kyra handled everything with so much care and compassion. She immediately contacted us, made sure he received veterinary attention, and kept us updated throughout everything. We are incredibly grateful for her kindness and how well she cared for our babies. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her! ❤️”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my home for the weekend and took great care of my two cats and my senior Shih Tzu, who requires a little extra attention. I came home to happy pets, a tidy house, and complete peace of mind. She communicated well throughout her stay and made everything feel effortless. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Stella and Sara were perfect for each other! Lots of pictures shared lots of doggie smiles and activity around the house. The house was left very clean which made our return home a breeze. Sara and I exchanged texts quite a bit which softened our missing Stella. I will definitely invite Sara back when the occasion arises and Stella will be looking forward to that!”
About: I am a responsible young adult that makes connections with every pet I see. I follow directions, exceed expectations and give great experiences for the pets. I have taken care of 4 litters of puppies, dogs ranging from bernese mountain dogs to dachshunds, and multiple cats. I am a hard working college student who wants to own multiple businesses some day including and dog sitting one. Pet care fits into my daily routine because as a college student I have plenty of time in between and after classes to do what I love. I have been doing pet care for many years and it comes naturally to me. I love to be outdoors and walking dogs will allow me to do that. Making connections with pets is special to me as I am really good with animals. I will care for clients pets the same way I care for my own. Depending on the pet’s personality type I will give as much attention as possible, lots of playtime, and walks. But, on the other hand if their personality is more relaxed I might let them do what they want while still being there for them.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs received! He was flexible with scheduling, communicated regularly so we always knew how things were going, and his rates are very reasonable. He’s also incredibly adaptive; he noticed things that needed attention and handled them on his own without having to ask, like cleaning up messes without missing a beat. You can tell he genuinely cares about the well-being of the animals in his care. Our dogs were happy and loved, and that’s all we could ask for. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Arica was an incredible dog sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was so kind, patient, and caring with our dog, who can be a little anxious at times. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and she was always reliable and thoughtful. It was obvious she genuinely cared about our dog like he was her own. We’re so grateful for everything she did and are already looking forward to having her watch him again in the future. 100% recommend!!”
“Wendy did a wonderful job and we were able to take a 3 day vacation knowing that our little "older" dog was in good hands. She does an awesome job of sending you photos and letting you know your pet is following their normal routine and enjoying the time they spend with her. We would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that normally takes a while to warm up to new people. The first time Wendy met Chip, it was "love at first sight". Thank you Wendy!”
“Sydney is an amazing person and a great cat sitter. She's genuine, honest, responsive, and super thorough. Not only did she look after Moose, but she played with him, gave him attention, and really cared for him. He wasn't feeling great one night, so she stayed up with him until he fell asleep. When I got home, she had cleaned the litter area, changed the sheets, and washed the bedding. Five stars for Sydney!”
“Cecilia was great with our 2 senior dogs and our last minute trip. She communicated promptly and eased all my worries while I was overseas. She also sent lots of pictures. For my first experience with a sitter and rover this was great. Will definitely rebook.”

I have 6 years of professional dog-handling experience and 13+ years as a dog owner. In California, I built a clientele that trusted me with their furry family members, and now I’m excited to build those same connections here in the Nampa/Boise area! ❤️ I know every pet has their own little personality, routine, and quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one special.

I can't recommend Arica enough, she was placed in my home by the Rover trust and security team when the sitter I hired needed to be removed from my home while I was out of state at my mothers funeral. She did an amazing job picking up the pieces and providing excellent care for my animals. Arica will be my sitter from here on out. This one is tested and approved by a very picky pet owner.
Wonderful experience with Holly pet sitting for our five fur babies. One of our cats got sick and Holly took him to our vet and we were able to get him started on meds. Our animals all had med needs and Holly was able to make it work. Very good experience and fully trusted her with our animals. Thank again, Holly!
Our dogs are currently looking around the house for Sara. They were glad we're back, to an extent--but they miss her. There was no tip big enough, no commendation great enough than that our dogs love Sara and want her back. She is an excellent caretaker, trustworthy, honest and loves the dogs. What a gift! Thank you, Sara! We'll see you again soon!
Amber took great care of our 3 x fur babies while we were away for four days. She even sent pictures of them throughout her stay. She came for a meet and greet prior to her stay to make sure she had all the details of care. We have two elderly Goldens that have specific feeding instructions and require oral medication. She also took great care of our home. She was great! We will definitely have her back!
I’m so grateful I found Chenaniah. We’d never used Rover before and we’re quite nervous of going away for such a long time and having someone housesit and watch our 2 precious kitties. Chenaniah put us at ease on our first meeting. Our shyest kitty, who usually hides when someone new is around, went right up to Chenaniah and gave her a little side swipe. What a great comfort for me. Chenaniah took amazing care of our kitties and I was grateful I didn’t have to constantly be worried because she checked in daily with us with plenty of photos. Both cats warmed up to her quickly. One can tell that she truly loves cats and I’d tecommend her highly!
Hazen was awesome, the animals took right to him. We had a lot to care for plus he stayed in the home so he is a total rockstar! He communicated twice a day or more with photos and updates. The house looked just like I left it, very clean. I’ll definitely be booking him again.
Celeste was an absolute joy to work with, what a great blessing to know that my dogs were truly in the Best of Care!! She was most attentive to each dogs’ individual needs and concerns, and very detail-oriented to go beyond what was expected!! Celeste also cleaned up after them and my house was impressively clean!! Most importantly, my pets were happy as she communicated via videos and pictures of all the fun play she devoted to them!! I truly could enjoy my vacation seeing how happy, content and secure they were… Celeste is very dedicated to her work, she combines professionalism with lots of love, genuine caring with her beautiful personality!!!
Kelsey took amazing care of my big, intimidating German Shepherd. She was so well loved that she almost seemed bummed that I came home and was without Kelsey. My home was left exactly as I had left it, minus the full outdoor trash can I accidentally left, but Kelsey even emptied that! If you need a dog sitter, Kelsey is the one.

The average cost of House Sitting in Nampa is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $72 per night.

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 Nampa 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 Nampa 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 Nampa 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.
