“My pup loves Shachel. His happiness when she arrives is the only affirmation I need that I’ve booked the right person. Appreciate her calm demeanor and willingness to follow through on this fussy mom’s many requests. 🩷”
“Sarah was SO GREAT with Olive. It was my first time leaving my incredibly energetic 6 month old big puppy with a sitter. Sarah came over for two meet and greets, watched Olive for two nights and transported her to day care and play dates while I was out of town. The communication was excellent and left me with nothing to worry about. I truly felt like Olive was in the best hands. Sarah came to say goodbye when I got back to town and Olive was SO happy to see her which I feel is a testament to how well Sarah took care of her! I will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much!!”
“It was a pleasure having Brenna watch our pups. She provided updates and pictures through the visit and the house was in good order when we returned home. Looking forward to having her sit for us again.”
“Monica was booked for housesitting and watching my dog for three days. She did great and was very attentive with my dog Diego. I would definitely recommend her if you need a house sitter and somebody to watch your pets. She is very trustworthy. I will definitely be booking her again.”
“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.”
“Angelina was our first in-home dog sitter, and she was awesome. She met our pups in advance and got to know them a bit, and then stayed with them for 5 days. Each day she would send us pics and videos of the happy pups playing and cuddling. She communicated with us throughout our trip and put our minds at ease that our fur babies were in good hands. When we arrived home late, we found a perfectly neat house just as we had left it. Not a single dish in the sink, and she put her sheets and blankets from the guest bedroom in the laundry room hamper. She certainly didn’t need to do that, but it was a nice thoughtful touch that we appreciated. We were very happy with our experience with Angelina. The dogs were even more mellow and even tempered than usual when we walked through the door which is rare for them, which made us feel like they got lots of love and affection while we were gone. She definitely earned 5-Stars!”
“Heidi was great with Bo & Daisy! She sent regular updates, pictures, and videos of them playing and snuggling! We had Heidi house sit, ands she even ran the dishwasher and even put the linens through the laundry! Amazing! 10/10. Highly recommend :-)”
“Rebecca was very friendly and informative while watching our little Luka. She kept in touch and followed up on everything. Thank you for watching little luka and for being so flexible!”
“Alani was so relaxed and loved Christy and their walks. I appreciated she cleaned up and washed the sheets on the bed, less work for me. 😊 I would recommend her to anyone.”
“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! 😊👍”
“Gabby & Kade were excellent house and dog sitters. They’re communicative and kind. What I appreciated the most was the meet and greet before hand taking the time to really know the dogs and discuss expectations. They kept me up to date daily with three daily updates and left the house and my dogs in great condition. I would recommend them to others looking for a weekend or long term house sitter.”
“My dog's absolutely loved olivia. They loved her so much that when she went to see my neighbor with them my neighbor was jealous because they were giving Olivia all their attention and love.”
“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 :)”
“Rowan was very kind and respectful and instantly clicked with our pets (even our old cranky kitty loved him.) He sent us updates and pictures to let us know everyone was doing well as this was my first time using Rover, so it made me feel so much more at ease. He is a gem, and you should absolutely reach out to him to care for your pets. They will love their time with him.”

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 $48.15 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 733 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.

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.
