“Jenilee cared for our babies as if they were her own! She kept in contact and sent multiple pictures and even videos, it was awesome. We will absolutely be contacting her again!”
“Kiera was amazing! We had a mixup with our booking and she happily made it right for us, which we greatly appreciated! She took such great care of our pups and continually sent us videos and pictures! She’s the absolute best!”
“Jason is a fantastic sitter! His calm and caring demeanor was exactly what my Rottweiler needed. Jason provided regular pictures and updates, and always responded quickly to my messages. I will be contacting Jason when I need a house sitter in the future!”
“Jessica and Michael are so wonderful! I felt at peace when we were away knowing she would take great care of our dog. She took thorough notes when we walked her through the routine and provided updates as we wanted them. You can tell she really loves animals and cares about them while you’re away. Definitely will be using them again!”
“Ashlee took great care of our older dogs, she adjusted to their routine well (including giving medications) and kept me updated daily. I’d recommend her for your fur babies too!”
“This duo is where it’s at! They were amazing with my poocho, Sven- and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with him in their care. I received photo updates and you can just tell they have a strong love for animals ♥️ I really appreciated their help with such short notice and taking wonderful care of my boy. Thanks again guys!!”
“Becca was fantastic. She spoiled our dog for four days. He was even fluffy and clean when we got home. She was super communicative and responsive. We will definitely book her again.”
“Alexandrea did a wonderful job sitting for Duke, and he went looking for her later on. She also was kind enough to put up his food when it arrived a day early. Highly recommend.”
“Maddie was awesome!! We previously had a bad experience with rover so I was skeptical to use rover again but Maddie followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure to not leave our dogs more than 6 hours (which we had discussed). She sent photos every day and was very responsive. We already have her booked to have her watch our dogs again when we leave for a longer period of time because we trust she will take good care of them. Thank you, Maddie!!”
“Kristin did a great job with Bones. Took care of him and our apartment and was very communicative. We came home and bones was happy and everything was clean. Would use her again”
“Calli stayed with our three dogs and myriad small pets when we went out of town for a long weekend. She was fabulous! We had a meet and greet, she was prompt with all communication, she took GREAT care of the pets, and she left the house in perfect shape. All in all, we were thrilled to have Calli watch the dogs and have already booked her for another trip later this summer.”
“Becca was amazing! We have three dogs who can be a little crazy and reactive but she had no issues with their issues. She let me know when there was minor issues with their meds due to them being picky and was able to course correct and find solutions. Would 100% book again!”
“Elisabeth is great! She took great care of our dog and cat. She kept our house clean and how we left it. Very communicative before and during her time watching them! Our boys were well taken care of and allowed us to enjoy our weekend away!”
“Morgan was amazing - daily updates and pictures - arrived to a clean home - and most importantly, my dog was happy and well exercised when I got home! I will definitely use Morgan again! She even sent me pictures of my flowers that bloomed while I was away!”
“Cami & Jessy were the PERFECT babysitters. Cami was very responsive and sent picture updates daily, followed my instructions exactly, and was so sweet to my babies. I felt so comfortable leaving my babies with them and that speaks volumes because of how picky I am. They gave oral medication to one of my dogs daily (who doesn’t take it easily), walked my dogs & took care of my home to perfection. I came home to all dishes done and the bed made. I believe dogs are great judges of character & my dog who is generally very afraid of men took to both of them so quickly. They are the sweetest and I would recommend them to absolutely anyone! Thank y’all again!”
“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.”
“Sam, Brianna's husband, was awesome. He was friendly, warm, and did a great job keeping us informed. Pretzel was sad that we were gone and I appreciate that Sam didn't try to sugarcoat it. He was honest about my dog missing us and not eating or playing. I would definitely use Sam again.”
“Danielle’s communication was amazing-I hadn’t left my new kitty before & she was so patient and reassuring to me. He was in happy spirits, not stressed or dismayed when I got home so I know he was well taken care of. Super grateful for the help but also reassuring communication made my time away so much better.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ponderosa Park
Graham did amazing watching our sweet girl Missy and our place! She provided lots of pictures and updates throughout the week, took the trash out, and left the house spotless! She took Missy on tons of walks and carried her up the stairs, 10/10 would recommend. Will definitely be using her in the future 😊
I booked Hayvin for an overnight boarding at my home, and she took wonderful care of my two cats and two dogs. She was incredibly sweet, communicated very well throughout the stay, and kept me updated regularly, which gave me great peace of mind. My dogs absolutely loved her! I would definitely recommend Hayvin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, and I will absolutely book with her again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Ponderosa Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ponderosa Park on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,389 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ponderosa Park. 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 Ponderosa Park 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 Ponderosa Park 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 Ponderosa Park 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
