“Thanks Curtis. You are an amazing pet sitter. Thanks for the timeliness of your availability, professionalism and just overall work ethic. The dogs seemed happy with you and the videos and pictures helped us to realize our fur balls were safe and well taken care of. We will definitely use your services again when needed.”
“Emily was a wonderful sitter for our 2 pups. It was our first time leaving them with a sitter and she made us feel so comfortable. She sent us cute pictures and gave us updates. Would definitely recommend Emily to anyone who’s looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur babies!”
“Madeline stayed with my babies over night which I much appreciated it. She sent pictures daily of them. The 1st day with them she didn;t leave which made them feel secure. Felt like they were loved and taken care of since have 2 puppy mill moms and 3 cats which think Zoey maybe slept with her since the room she slept in Zoey has now claimed for her room.”
“Maggie is a great sitter and love that she brings he dog for our very active healer mix to run around with. She’s great at communicating throughout and send great pictures! Will definitely use her again and again”
“Sydnee was a fantastic sitter for my pup when I went on a much needed vacation. I always choose her to watch Finn when needed. She is great with him and he loves her just as much. She always checked in with me when I was away and is so kind and respectful.”
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.
“Ashely was incredible!!! She gave great updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog loved her! She also took fantastic care of my apartment while I was gone. I will for sure be booking with Ashley again! Thanks for everything Ashley!!!”
“This was my first time leaving my two dogs with someone other than family. Kailyn did an amazing job with my two dogs who have a lot of behavioral issues that require special considerations (feeding and walking separately, medications, etc). She sent me pics and videos of the dogs too. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have been caring for them since I was about 10 years old. I’ve watched dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup wants to play, go for a walk, or just cuddle on the couch, I’m happy to give them the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I’m a senior at the University of South Carolina and am currently home in Powell for the summer! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the summer and would love to help care for your pets! I have a fenced-in yard at home where your pup can safely play and get some energy out! I also have two friendly puppies of my own, so your dog can have some company if they enjoy being around other dogs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care!
“Ben provided an extended time (12 days) house-sitting both our dogs and home. He was very responsive and responsible. I highly recommend Ben… he's extremely courteous and conscientious.”
“Danielle was fantastic with our two dogs. This was the longest we had ever left them and I felt so comfortable and was able to enjoy our trip knowing the dogs and house were taken care of. Will definitely use again and recommend to friends.”
“We recently adopted our dog and were concerned with leaving her so soon. Karlina was amazing with our dog, we received multiple pictures throughout the stay and I could tell our dog was well loved and extremely happy. I will continue to use Karlina anytime we need a dog sitter.”
“Kati took such wonderful care of my dog, Benji! From the start, I felt completely at ease, and it was clear that Benji did too. One of the things I appreciated most was Kati’s communication. She sent regular checkins along with the most adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious from the photos that Benji was relaxed, having fun, and getting plenty of love and attention. I’m so grateful for the care Kati provided and would absolutely trust her with Benji again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Jennifer did a phenomenal job with our quite nervous, shy Corgi. Our dog became comfortable with her on the first visit and she followed all instructions explicitly. I would definitely recommend her and will use her services again. She seems to really enjoy caring for animals and is very conscientious.”
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.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Powell is $48
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Powell
I had a wonderful experience with Ava! She took amazing care of Milo, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure he was happy and well cared for while I was away. She also left my house clean, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Milo was in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!
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!

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.

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.
