“This was our first time using the Rover app to find a pet sitter. Ashley and her family took great care of our dog Jack during his stay with them and he made himself at home. It was great getting a picture or two everyday of him and how he was doing. We’ll be reaching out again.”
“Raquel was fantastic. We used her for house sitting with our doggo who doesn’t love being boarded. She treated him like he was her own and he was one happy dude when we got back. We felt totally comfortable having Raquel stay at our place. She communicated well and sent us regular updates with pictures. Will definitely book again!”
“Amber was amazing with our dogs during her stay. She was very patient with our older dog, and sent lots of photos to keep us up to date. We will definitely be re-booking with her in the future.”
“We don’t typically like to leave our girls over the 4th of July due to firework anxiety, however our girls really loved the previous visit from Carly so we decided to give it a try and they did SO well! Carly made sure they were comfortable and spent extra time with them when she felt like they needed it! Carly is absolutely our “go to” sitter now!”
“Haley did a great job with our older dog who needs company. We really appreciate the update photos Haley sent--the phots just further showed what a kind pet-sitter Haley is. We highly recommend Haley and are looking forward to our next booking with Haley!”
“Absolutely amazing!! Photos and updates every time. She spent quality time with them. I actually think my dogs now love her more than me!!! So great. Will totally hire again and 100% recommend!!!”
“Lydia is fantastic! She sat for our two large dogs and our house while we were out of town for four days and I couldn’t be happier with the excellent level of care she provided. We came home to a very clean house and very happy pups. Would definitely hire again!”
“Meredith did an amazing job with my pets. She was very responsive and kept me updated. She was able to get my shy kitty to come out and be social. Mika my shy kitty normally stays hidden when ppl are over. Both my dogs loved her and got many cuddles. I am very grateful at what an amazing job she did and would def rebook again.”
“Kate communicated well and often when house sitting with my 2 dogs. She seemed patient and empathetic with my elderly dog. The house looked great when we got home and while away I was happy to see pics texted to me of them going for walks, which they love!”
“Sarah gave our girl lots of love while we were gone. We were so grateful to know our pup was in good hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Sarah next time we go out of town!”
“Brooke was amazing! The house was spotless when I got home, and Mija was happy and clearly well taken care of. She was very communicative and sent several updates throughout the booking, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
About: I have worked with cats, dogs, reptiles and rodents; both my own pets, long term house and pet minding and short term pet sitting. I have experience administering liquid and solid oral medications to cats and dogs, maintenance grooming long and short haired dogs and cats, and managing simple and complex feeding routines(even ones that involve unique habits pets develop with their owners). I love walking dogs and can play with pets until they're over it. I'm currently between jobs but I will always be available from 8:00pm to 7:00am as well as all day Sundays and Saturdays. I may be able to work quicker visits into my workday as long as they aren't too far from my job. With my attention to detail and desire to provide your pets the same stability you give them, I read instructions thoroughly and ask questions if clarification is ever needed to ensure accurate communication and proper care.
“Josie was absolutely amazing! She stayed in our home for several days to take care of Simba and Blondi, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Josie was friendly, professional, reliable, and incredibly thoughtful. She immediately made us feel comfortable, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with regular messages, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy, safe, and in such caring hands. It was obvious that Simba and Blondi were receiving lots of love, attention, exercise, and affection. Josie took the time to get to know their personalities and routines, and she treated them with the same care and patience as if they were her own pets. When we came home, they were relaxed, happy, and clearly very comfortable with her. Josie also took wonderful care of our home. Everything was spotless, organized, and exactly as we had left it. It was such a relief to come home knowing both our dogs and our house had been so well looked after. We especially appreciated her excellent communication, dependability, kindness, and attention to detail. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of, and we always felt confident that Simba and Blondi were in the best possible hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Josie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, compassionate, and dedicated pet sitter. She exceeded all of our expectations, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Josie!”
About: Growing up I always had cats and/or dogs in the house so I've had animal caretaking experience since a very young age. I currently have a very sweet 2y/o XL Bully, a very crazy 9 y/o Pit Bull-Jack Russell Terrier mix, and two adorable kittens. I've stayed up to two weeks in non-family memeber's homes to care for their pets and have never had complaints I am currently unemployed. So I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pets. I'm searching for remote work so hopefully even when I'm employed I will be able to work around your animals' schedule. When I wake up I make sure the animals are fed before feeding myself, I don't let my day start unless their tummies are full. I love snuggling up with animals and making sure they have plenty of playtime.
About: I grew up with a dog and I lived with dogs. I was often left in charge of the needs and cares of these animals. I am capable of caring for multiple dogs at a time and have no issues with walking them simultaneously. I work a full time job I’m available evening and nights during the week and sometimes on the weekends. I have 3 days off a week. I abide by the rules you set for your pets from feeding time to going outside, two walks a day and plenty of play time. I have a mellow energy and a strong ability to pick up on an animal’s vibes, adjusting my own energy to match. If they’re playful and active, I will engage with them on their level. I’m currently working a full time job. I work two twelve hour days and 2 eight hour days every week. I work two weekends every month but I have 3 days off a week. I’ll take care of them like they are my own. I make sure they are safe and have everything they need especially if I’m not there.

Kassidy took great care my dog! She was available on short-term notice and was available to come over for a meet & greet right away. My dog gets along well with her and I can tell he's comfortable with her when I get photo updates during the visit. Will definitely rebook with her!

FAQs for House Sitting - North Liberty
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Liberty on Rover is $38.85 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 337 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Liberty. 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 North Liberty 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 North Liberty 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 North Liberty 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 North Liberty. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
