“Sarah was great! She was prompt and courteous and got on well with our pups. She even left us a drawing she made of on of our dogs. Very sweet and would be very happy having her watch our dogs again.”
“Xenia was AMAZING with my high maintenance dog. She was great about communication and kept me up to date with how my pup was doing including cute pics! My house looked perfect when I got back and my pup was sacked out and happy and not stressed at all. Definitely highly recommend Xenia...I've already booked her again!!”

“Alex was wonderful. She came to the house for a pre-meet with the dogs and presented herself as very confident in caring for the dogs. The dogs took an immediate liking to her. She communicated with me during my absence and sent pictures to let me know how everything was going.”
“Christy did amazing job, my dog was cared for and loved while I was gone. I have camera's in my house and every time I checked in they were cuddling or he was getting attention. My house was left very clean and was exactly how i left it. I would highly recommend her and feel very comfortable using her again.”
“Julie was a fantastic dog/cat sitter. She sent us many photos of the animals. She left the apartment in tiptop shape. She followed the care instructions to a T. I could tell the animals were loved while we were gone. She is exceptional! I highly recommend Julie and will gladly have her dog/cat sit in the future.”
About: For over 5 years, I have lived in a home with five large dogs, gaining extensive experience in caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Growing up on a farm where my parents rescued various animals, I developed a deep understanding of animal care. I am skilled in feeding routines, administering medications, giving baths, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and brushing coats. I treat every pet I care for as a member of my own family, recognizing their unique personalities and ensuring their individual needs are fully met. Whatever your pet requires, I provide it with confidence, compassion, and dedication. I care for your pets as if they were part of my own family. I understand that each pet has unique personalities and specific needs, and I genuinely appreciate those differences. Whatever your pet requires, I am confident in my ability to provide attentive, personalized care. This is my only job currently making me more available then most people! I know how important your pets are, I will treat every dog in my care with kindness, patience, and respect. While staying in my home, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment. I will follow their usual feeding and care routine, closely monitor their well-being, and communicate regularly with their owner so they can feel confident their dog is happy and well cared for.
“Livvi was great caring for our two cats! The cats are still getting used to each other so required extra care and monitoring. One cat has special medical needs requiring medication and care. Livvi was great with them and communicated so well with me throughout. She left the house and cats in wonderful order and we are so grateful! I was nervous about being away, but now I feel so much better leaving in the future if I can book Livvi!”
“Eva did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our husky and calico. She was very friendly, polite, and cordial in person at our meet and greet and was available via phone/text during our absence for progress updates. We returned to our pets in good nature and our home just like we left it. I would not hesitate to book Eva again for house sitting/pet care! Thank you very much.”
“Brenna was wonderful! She house-sat for our dog and two cats. We came home to happy pets and a tidy house. Our pup is super skittish, and Brenna was so good with her! And she was comfortable medicating our diabetic cat (oral med and insulin injection). She sent us daily photos and updates. Highly recommend!!”
“Rebecca was amazing with our 2 pups. Our older dog is high anxiety and she looked very comfortable and content being with Rebecca. Looking forward to using Rebecca again when the need arises!”
“Kristen was amazing while looking after our two fur babies for a week. Attentively, she noticed our older lab had a limp and kept us informed of his progress. She was kind enough to send videos and photos throughout her stay. We truly appreciated how she looked after our dogs and our home as if it was hers.”
“Patti was an excellent sitter with our 13 and a half Golden Retriever. She came over for a meet and greet and we knew that she would be great for our family immediately. She has an enormous amount of knowledge about dogs and understood the needs of an elderly dog with arthritis. I totally trusted her and would definitely use her again.”
“Jackie did an excellent job with our senior Lab. He loved her from the moment he met her. She sent us lots of pictures and stayed in communication keeping us posted on all his adventures. At one point my husband said “he is having so much fun he may not want to leave”! Additionally, she did a great job watering all of my plants and vegetables during a hot spell. They all looked better than when we left. We arrived home to a spotless house, a beautiful thank you note, fresh baked cookies and sourdough bread! I would highly recommend Jackie to care of your precious pets!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life, and I have my own dog named Milo. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were mine. I have plenty of time in my day to care for your pets. My job is flexible with hours and I am always able to work things around. I have a fenced backyard and plenty of dog toys, and two fur babies, so your pup/s would be able to interact as if they were home.
About: I truly enjoy dog walking and dog sitting. Currently, I am unable to have a dog and dog walking/sitting brings me so much joy. I especially like taking dogs out for daily walks/jogs/hikes. I'm good with their familiar walks and also exploring new places if they are an adventurous pup! I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds and making new doggie friends. I'd love to meet your baby - send me a message! I currently work from home most days and can be available for daytime check-ins. I am also available most mornings and evenings for walks and check-ins as well. Weekends are very flexible as well. When caring for your pets in your home, I will make sure it is calm and comfortable for your pets. I appreciate knowing any rules and routines that best suit your pet so that I can follow them and make it easier on you when you return home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Post Falls
Annie was absolutely wonderful! I had just moved to the area and unexpectedly had to leave town for an out-of-state interview, so it was a stressful time. She took excellent care of my dog, Yogi, and my home, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with great communication throughout the stay, and I always knew Yogi was in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Annie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter.
Josh (and his partner Rachel) are hands down our favorite petsitters! He took care of our two dogs and cat in our home while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. He kept us updated with photos and we felt so relaxed knowing our pets were in great hands. We returned to a home that was cleaner than we left it, and three happy, loved pets!! We always joke that our pets love Josh and Rachel more than they love us 😂

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Post Falls 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 745 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Post Falls. 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 Post Falls 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 Post Falls 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 Post Falls 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
