“She showed up and Jaxx was immediately comfortable with her. She stayed till my daughter got back from school which was a few minutes before scheduled time because I was running a few minutes behind. She kept me updated throughout as well. As food as it gets for a sitter. Jaxx loved her. Highly recommended”
“This is the second time Gabrielle has stayed in our home and cared for our 4 pets (2 dogs, 2 cats). We could not be more pleased with the care our pets received. It was evident that Gabrielle attended both to their safety and physical needs, as well as giving them lots of love and cuddles. Gabrielle was communicative with us during her stay and our home was in pristine condition upon our return. We hope Gabrielle is able to support our family again in the future!”
About: I am An animal lover who wants to spend my free time ,ouside my full time job, helping others and spending time with your fluffy family members. I currently work a full-time job and go in for my shift at 2 PM in the afternoon so if you were looking for someone in the morning, I am your gal I can be well trusted with pets due to the facts I have 4 large dogs in my life! I’ve dealt with many large farm animals and many small farm animals as well. No matter the size or personality I am able to get the animal to love me. I’ve never met an animal I can’t love
“Hands down, Guinevere has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She responded in a very timely manner, kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing and sent many pictures. Two of our dogs normally go on a hunger strike when we leave, but this was no problem with Guinevere there. She even won over our crabby dog! House was left cleaner than when we left. We’re excited to book with Guinevere again in the near future.”
About: I have taken care of cats for at least 20 years now. I would love to help someone out by taking care of their cats when they cannot. I am retired so I would have a lot of time to take care of your cat or keep them company for a while. I love fur babies. I have three indoor cats and one outdoor cat that comes in to eat and sleep. They get plenty of attention. I would love to add more Cat friends to have fun with.
“Dani was amazing! She is clear in communication and took extra steps to take excellent care of my pup and was extra courteous while staying at my home. Highly recommend for pet sitting needs.”
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, but started taking care of dogs around the time I was 12 and moreso with cats around 13. We adopted a dog when I was 12 and I fed her, walked her, bathed her, taught her tricks, played with her, we'd even cuddle! We fostered a dog from a hoarder and had another dog after the loss of the last one and I continued to repeat the cycle with this big crazy whippersnapper! Where I was working part-time just closed for the season, so I have plenty of free time for playing with your pups and kitties!!! When I'm not in school, I'll be taking care of my pets and helping my mom out with them around the house, she does Rover too and recommended I get on it. For drop ins, I like to meet the pet first and learn about their likes and dislikes and where to find all of their things. I like to ask questions on how to make sure they feel most comfortable with a new person and try to follow that advice to make sure they feel their best. For walks, I like to get an idea of where they like to walk and any behaviors I can expect while walking them before we head out on our adventure!
“5 star service from Eric and Sylvia. They took such great care of our Trixie and treated her as their own. We couldnt be happier and Trixie had such a great time, thanks so much Eric and Sylvia! We will definitely request you guys again, Mark and Christy P.”
“Phoebe was the absolute best, I seriously could not recommend her more!! She constantly sent updates and pictures of Tito while I was gone. He usually doesn’t eat when I am not home and he was eating every meal with Phoebe and was so calm and relaxed with her. It made being away such a breeze to know Tito was in such good hands. Phoebe went out of her way to frame a picture of Tito for when I got home. She truly loves all animals like her own! I am SO happy to have found her!!”
“Olivia was absolutely wonderful with our anxious, separation-anxiety dog! She work very hard to make sure he was comfortable and happy the entire time and we are very grateful for it! We will definitely be utilizing her services again”
“Maria was an amazing dog sitter! She came to our house ahead of watching them to meet our pups and get information about their daily routine. When she watched the dogs, she sent daily photos and updates, providing us with ease of mind while away on our trip. We would love to have Maria back to watch our dogs in the future. :)”
“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”
“My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!”
“Michelle was awesome! Our fur babies loved her! She let us know when she arrived and gave them lots of love. She sent us pictures and updates of our guys. She was great and we plan on using her again.”
About: Calm, direct, structured dog walker/sitter. Strong behavior cue recognition, leash skills, and vet/med/admin experience. Great with larger dogs, seniors, and nervous pets. Daily, I check messages, confirm schedules, and plan calm walks/sitting times. Weekends I block longer visits for feeding/meds and behavior notes, keeping routines consistent and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I keep routines consistent, minimize stress, follow written instructions closely, and do calm, structured walk/feeding/med support. I provide behavior notes and quick check-ins.
“Kayla was absolutely wonderful. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Bella was in such good hands. I received frequent updates and pictures. I truly can't say enough good things about the care Bella received.”
“Justina has housesat for us twice now (once for about two weeks and once for a weekend) and watched my two pups and cat. She’s done an awesome job, kept us informed, sent pictures, and left the house very clean. We’ll be using her again anytime we travel!!”
About: Hi I’m Olivia and I love taking care of dogs and cats! I am 22 and currently a student at Penn State. I have 4 cats of my own and love to be around animals. I have been dog and cat sitting for almost six years now and I absolutely love doing it! I enjoy taking care of pets of all ages and love to run and walk with dogs as well. I’m great with younger pets that have a lot of energy as well as older ones who are more relaxed. I’m very responsible and reliable and take pet sitting very seriously. I will give your pet much needed love and attention while you are away or unable to be there for them! When I’m home on breaks or holidays I’m available pretty much whenever! I will always keep my availability up to date and will work with clients to fit their needs. When caring for pets in my clients home I always respect the pet’s space first. I’m coming into their home and want to make the pets feel comfortable.

FAQs for House Sitting - Powder Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,806 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Powder Valley. 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 Powder Valley 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 Powder Valley 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 Powder Valley 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Powder Valley. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
