“Curtis was great with my two cats and dog (Odie)! He was very polite and gave Odie all of the pets and belly rubs requested during the initial meet-and-greet. During the actual stay, he sent photos and videos of the cats being obsessed with him (no surprise!) and Odie loving his walks with him. He also left the house clean! 10 out of 10”
“Emily took the absolute best care of our 2 dogs! She truly made our vacation worry free, sent great updates and pictures. Honestly the first time we’ve left our babies and didn’t feel the need to check on them constantly because she was so proactive. So happy we found her!”
“Our 1 year old dog had a lot of fun with Willow, Maggie’s dog, while we were away. We received pictures everyday and she kept us updated on the little things. She’ll definitely be sitting for us again!”
“Danielle provided excellent care for our two pups and our kitty. She communicated effectively and paid great attention to pet care instructions. She was always on time and accountable. In addition to taking care of the pets, Danielle also looked after our home. We truly appreciate her care.”
“Karlina was a great dog and house sitter. Took amazing care of our pups and they seemed stress free when we got home. House was in great condition. Good communication throughout. I would not hesitate to request her services again!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since was 12! I used to check dogs in the neighborhood! I’ve even stayed at a house for two weeks taking care of two dogs one extremely geriatric. I am good with giving medication to dogs, getting them a daily walk, making sure they have frequent potty breaks, and a whole lot of belly rubs!! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own dog every day. I’m used to walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In my home or a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, potty breaks, medication, exercise, and routines. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and creating a calm, trustworthy environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages! I can administer medicine, bathe them, feed them, walk them, and give them special care. I’ve been around animals since I was in my early teens. I have a pretty open schedule. As long as you let me know at least a day ahead, I can work with your schedule. I have another part-time job that is flexible. I have a crate for my puppy that I keep her in when I am not supervising her, or leave her with my family. My cat Bean is free to roam around.
“Noah did a wonderful job watching our pups while we were away! He was especially attentive and caring with our elderly dog, including administering medication, which gave us so much peace of mind. Communication was great, and we could tell our dogs were well cared for and loved. We would absolutely have Noah watch them again and highly recommend him!”
“Mia is great. She did such a wonderful job with my two dogs. When I arrived home from my 3 day trip my place was clean and the dogs were content. It was a relief as this was my first time leaving my dogs for more than 1 day. Thank you!”
“Sydnee was fantastic! Very responsive and responsible. I felt completely confident that Ollie was being well taken care of! I would recommend her to any of my friends and family. Ollie loved his cuddle time with Sydnee and I really enjoyed the daily pictures!”
About: I've taken care of pet dogs and cats since I was 12. I've also helped some of my neighbors and relatives with their pets while theywere away. Though I'm currently working full time I can take care of anyone's pets, and promptly intimate the owners in advance about my absence or when I would be unavailable. I have roommates so I can do house sitting only in the client's place, and I will do my best with all.my experience to keep their pet happy and comfortable.
About: I worked at a kennel for a year growing up and consistently volunteered at animal friends. In Pittsburgh I had a small pet sitting business within my neighborhood. I have taken care of dogs, cats, reptiles, hedgehogs, guinea pigs and birds. I’m between jobs currently so I have a lot of availible time. Would love to go on some walks during the day or explore some parks. Otherwise just spending time with the pet! I would follow all instructions set by the owner for keeping the pet safe in their home, yard or area. My neighborhood is very walkable and there is green space around if that is an option
“Kailyn was great when she dog-sat our two fur babies on a somewhat last-minute notice. We appreciated how easily our dogs took to her and how she sent us so many picture updates!”
About: I have been an animal lover and part time caregiver since I was 13 years old. Over time, I have learned the importance of reliability, patience, and consistency when looking after pets. I have extensive firsthand experience of my own caring for a Siberian Husky, Marshal, since he was 3 months old. My time with him has taught me how to manage *extremely* high energy dogs, handle leash training, and provide the physical and mental stimulation certain dogs need. Besides Marshal, I have been a reliable sitter for my neighbors, friends, and family. Usually it’s stopping by for a midday walk, following feeding schedules, or just simply providing playtime and companionship. I love every pet and will treat them as if they were my own. I am comfortable working with any dog breed, any size and any temperament. I pride myself on being great with communication and being dependable, thus owners can have a calm peace of mind whenever they are away My current schedule is very flexible as I am not working full-time. This means that I can provide dedicated and undivided attention to your pets. I am available for house sitting throughout the week and on weekends to ensure your pets maintain their normal routine. I am dedicated to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I am highly observant, respectful of your space, and diligent about following any specific instructions regarding your pet’s behavior, medications, or house rules. I pride myself on being responsible, trustworthy, and communicative while you are gone.
About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was young. I help all of my friends in the military when they go out of town and I know how much of a pain it can be to find someone trustworthy! I love animals and never want them to go without love and care! I am currently working at Lowe’s part time. I work 4-6 hours a day if I even work that day. My husband works in the military and is home at nights and sometimes teleworks. I have a fenced backyard and a live in a nice area where I can walk the dogs to a nice park in the middle of my neighborhood. I have a 3 year old golden retriever who loves the company just as much as I do.
“Ava was fabulous from the beginning conversation to the goodbye. Left the house clean and the dogs very happy! Excellent communication, with pictures, during her stay. Rupert and Penny loved having her to hang with! I highly recommend her!”
“Kora was wonderful. She was very communicative and our boys (two dogs and a cat) were all very well cared for. I would absolutely ask Kora back and highly recommend her to anyone else.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Powell is $48
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Powell
Angela was amazing!! Our dog Carter is not always the friendliest with strangers yet she becomes best friends with him immediately. She was on time, communicated well with us and left our home in perfect condition. I would definitely trust her to house sit or pet sit again.
We are so thankful for how communicative, quick, and incredibly thorough Christine is with our pup Karl!! Her genuine, day-to-day care for him is truly above and beyond. With that said our flight was rerouted while in the air due to weather and Christine was watching the flights and as soon as she saw that she texted me that she was already in route back to our home! I could not have been more panicked due to how late it was and had zero ways to get ahold of anyone to help. When we landed my 1st text was from her saying she was on her back to take care of our Karl and that could not have been more of blessing. The peace of mind she gave us in such a stressful moment, well we are forever grateful! 🙏 we were stuck, exhausted, and she was on it! We cannot recommend Christine enough!!! What she did was so far above and beyond, we will always appreciate her for it! Thank you Christine!!! 🙏❤️🙏
If you are in need of a inhome pet sitter, I would highly recommend Cassie. I hadn't left my pets before & was going on vacation. I contacted her & she came to meet us. She understood my concerns & she did everything I asked of her. I felt very confident in leaving her in charge while i was gone. She conacted me everyday & provided photos. Both my dog & cat took to her pretty quickly. I will definitely use her again. Thank you, Cassie for everything!
Shannon is the best of the best! As someone who truly believes that her dogs are her babies, I couldn’t ask for anything more from Shannon. She promptly sends updates at the frequency you request, reaches out with any questions she has and took the best care of our babies. Our dogs even got sad and whined upon her departure. We can’t wait to ask Shannon to watch them again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Powell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Powell on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,523 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Powell. 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 Powell 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 Powell 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 Powell 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.
