“Emmalia was amazing watching our 2 dogs, 2 cats, and fish in our home. One of our dogs had a last minute medical diagnosis that required frequent medication during the day, and she was able to help us with that during our trip. She also sent frequent updates and pictures throughout the trip and also left a super cute note and drawing at the end of her care! We look forward to using her services again in the future!”
“Kaylin was great!! She was extremely flexible when we had to unexpectedly extend our vacation by a day. She sent pics of our pups and always answered quickly any time I messaged her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!😁”
“Katilyn was simply wonderful. She was punctual, communicative, and so very thoughtful. My pups were happy and healthy when we returned home and the house looked just like we left it! I have already booked her again!”
“Kevin came to our place 3 weeks before to meet us and the dog. He was willing to spend the night before so we could leave early the next morning. The dog was happy and he got to see the cat that always hides from me! We would use Kevin again and recommend him to others looking for a house/pet sitter.”
“Bronwyn was absolutely fantastic in every way. She was very responsible, sent plenty of updates, and took care of my pup as I would. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Maria exceeded my expectations by far! We rescued our dog, Murray, not long ago and he has bonded very closely with me, and I was worried about leaving him. We scheduled a few drop-ins with Maria prior to our 8-day vacation so that he could get to know her just a little bit before our trip. She was great with him from day 1. She kept us updated with messages and photos daily and he seemed very relaxed and happy. She also took excellent care of our home, bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, keeping things tidy. She also noticed we were low on milk and replaced it with a new container, so we'd have it upon returning. And she laundered the sheets and towels before leaving! I would highly recommend Maria if you are looking for a phenomenal pet sitter! We will definitely book with her again. Thank you Maria!!”
“Sharon was so good with my two. She arrived right on time, understood how important it was to us that our girls were treated differently (11 yr old and 4 month old). Josephine, especially, took to her right away. Sent updates and pictures. Will book again when the need arises.”
“Anna did an amazing job watching our pets and staying at our home. Our pets were so well cared for. We will definitely be using her services again in the future! 😊”
“I would highly recommend Cassie for dog sitting. She was respectful of our home and left it neat and clean. Cassie checked in before leaving the last day. She was responsive to me while I was away. She sent pictures of my pups each day. When I got home my pups were happy. Thanks Cassie!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm surrounded by a wide variety of animals, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I provide overnight stays, dog walking, and drop-in visits, and I have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, leisurely walks, or simply having a calm and caring companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, patience, and personalized care based on their routine and needs. I also know that peace of mind matters just as much as great pet care. That’s why I keep pet parents updated with regular messages, photos, and check-ins, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. I look forward to providing dependable, loving care whenever you need it! Since I’m retired, I have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. Whether you need care for a single day, several days, or an extended stay, I’m happy to accommodate your needs. One of the biggest advantages I offer is that I can spend most of the day with your pet, so they won’t be left alone for long periods. I can walk your pets, feed them, play with them, give them plenty of love and attention, and keep them comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow their usual routine, make sure they get the exercise and care they need, and treat them like part of my own family. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a caring companion nearby, I’m here to provide personalized care that meets their unique needs.
“Not only did Scarlett watch our dogs in our own home, she left the place immaculate and updated us on everything! My husband and I have two fairly anxious labs, and they seem very happy even though we were gone! I would trust her for all your pet needs.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages. I have three dogs of my own—two that are a year old or younger and one senior dog—so I’m comfortable meeting the different needs that come with each stage of life. From energetic puppies who need patience, training reinforcement, and lots of exercise to senior dogs who require a gentler pace and extra attention, I understand how to provide the right care. I walk my dogs every morning, so regular exercise and maintaining a consistent routine are already a part of my daily life. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, while keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m currently a college student and attend classes three days a week, which leaves me available in the afternoons. On my days off, I enjoy taking my three dogs to the park or on long walks to keep them active, happy, and mentally stimulated. Caring for my own dogs every day has made pet care a regular part of my lifestyle. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care that fits their routine and helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is happy and well cared for. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with regular potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection. Since I have three friendly dogs of my own, I always make sure introductions are done carefully and that every pet feels comfortable and secure. My goal is to give pets a stress-free experience where they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“Chiara was awesome! We had her watch our dogs and house for an extended weekend, and she was great! Highly recommend her! She assisted with medications for our older pup, and the house was in great shape when we returned. We hope to have Chiara stay again on our next trip!”
“We were away for two weeks and Blyth stayed at our house for the 2nd time. She is amazing. She had a devastating family emergency come up while we were away and she never even considered leaving early. She goes above and beyond and our 8 month old springer adores her. We were comfortable he was loved on and in great hands.”
“Elizabeth was a wonderful sitter! She sent lots of videos and photos of our happy girl and left our house spotless! Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Maranda was absolutely incredible with Boone. She kept me updated with adorable photos, made him special puppy ice cream, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and a wonderful communicator. The house was spotless when I got home and Boone was relaxed and happy. She’s trustworthy, loving, and exactly the kind of sitter every dog parent dreams of! Boone and I are so lucky to have found her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Peyton is $36 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $37 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.

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 Peyton 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 Peyton 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 Peyton 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Peyton. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
