“Shachel’s quiet and gentle ways are a godsend for my anxious pup. This was my second trip with Shachel holding down the fort and, as before, I returned to a happy dog…and my home as clean as I left it. Am so thankful to have found Shachel!”
“This was my first time using Xenia. She stayed at my house and took care of my cat, Cora, for 8 days. She sent me pics everyday. She notified me when Cora’s ear needed attention and she had vomited twice, so that I could let her know what I wanted her to do. And my house was in amazing condition when I returned. I will definitely use again.”
“Rylee was so good with my deaf 3 month old puppy, over three days she played with him, fed him and also left out food for my cats. She went above and beyond and brought in packages and left my home cleaner than when she got there. I would highly recommend her to anybody needing a dog sitter, her love for animals is obvious and I know my pets are in good hands with her.”
“Livvi is very good with the Rush, Poppy, and Charlie. The pets were glad I came home but were very comfortable with Livvi when I was away. I will hire her again when I plan another trip. I am comfortable with her. She was extremely good with daily pictures and messages with me.”
“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!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jessalyn and would book with her again. She took amazing care of our dog, kept us updated, sent lots of pictures and videos which was so fun to see, and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. She even gave him baths before we got home and vacuumed everything up afterward, which was such a thoughtful touch and so appreciated. It was clear she genuinely cared for him which is so nice to see when we are out on a trip. We're so grateful for the excellent care and attention she provided. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter!”
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.
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.
“Absolutely incredible dog and house sitters! We loved our experience with Kade and Gabby. They sent us regular updates on the dogs multiple times per day. They were also so wonderful in letting us know when a wind storm blew a tree onto our fence. They took extremely good care of our dogs and interacted with them extensively, and they even cleaned the house before they left! Honestly can't say enough good things about them. On top of being highly qualified, they exemplify extreme ownership of what they do!”
“Aurora did a fantastic job while I was out of the country. She watched my house and my dog. She communicated often and sent me pictures so I could relax knowing my pup and home were in good hands.”
“Laura is absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our pups and cat while we were out of town. Kept us updated with pictures which I loved!! Will definitely book again. Highly recommend Laura!”
About: Pets have always been an important part of my life.I have experience with lots of different pets including dogs,cats and chickens! I've had cats to care for most of my life and as of 6 years ago a big,fluffy great Pyrenees-Anatolian mix,who requires a lot of brushing and a lot of love! :) As of recently,my schedule leaves me with open afternoons and nights as i am in school until 2 or 3 most days! Though I may not have the most experience in pet care,I am organized and willing to learn whatever you need for your pet to be safe and happy! I am very excited to give your pets the love and care you expect to the best of my ability.I can't wait to work with you!
“Morgan watched our 3 dogs and 1 cat, which was no easy feat, and she made it look easy. Not only is she trustworthy and kind, the animals loved her and she sent photo updates while we were on vacation. To have no stress while out of town and our babies looked after so well is priceless. She is now our regular sitter :)”
“Meighan was great with my very needy dog! It put my mind at ease while traveling to know my dog was in such great hands! I came back to a very clean home and a happy dog. Thanks so much, Meighan!”
“This is the 2nd time we have had Emily watch our pets while we were away, and both of our animals remembered who she was and were so happy to see her again! She also did an amazing job keeping watch on our home while we were away. We love having her over and will definitely be booking for all of our future trips! 😊👍”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Post Falls
Ben was amazing! He was super responsive and kept me updated at all times. In addition, he was extremely flexible in accommodating some last minute changes to the booking. Lastly, he went above and beyond and offered to take out the trash given I was out on vacation. My dog was super happy and I seen on my backyard camera how excited he would get to go outside and play. Even getting sent pictures I was amazed and how well Ben was able to capture pics given my dog doesn’t even let me take pictures that good. Will definitely rebook and highly recommended for anyone who is looking for someone reliable and trustworthy.

The average cost of House Sitting in Post Falls is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $83 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 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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.
