“I don’t know if I can say enough positive things about Ava! She gave me so many updates and pictures of our dogs and cats and even went out of her way to shovel our driveway and clean up things inside the house! She noticed our one dog had an itchy rash on his ear and cleaned it for us and gave updates on how it was the next day. I will 1000% be reaching out to Ava again if I need help with our pups!”
“Vanessa was fantastic! We were able to relax and enjoy our time away because we knew that our cats were being taken care of by someone who is attentive and caring. We are very grateful for Vanessa and will continue booking with her!”
“Elizabeth was so wonderful with Blue and Parker. They were well taken care of while I needed pet care one evening. I will certainly be booking with her again! I highly recommend Elizabeth!”
“Madeleine was so awesome! She kept me updated throughout her stay and gave my dogs the love and attention they needed. She’s super personable and just the best! Super thorough and very detailed! Highly recommend and I’ll definitely rebook with her if she’s free! Thank you!!”
About: I have over two years of experience caring for dogs and cats in a daycare and boarding setting, along with additional experience caring for pets for friends and family! I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from playful puppies and kittens to laid-back seniors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, and administering medications. I’m also trained in dog and cat CPR and first aid, so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently a Veterinary Technology student at NDSU, and I love being able to combine my education and hands-on experience to provide the best care possible for every pet! I’m currently a college student looking to share some extra love and snuggles with your pets! While I do have classes to work around, my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m available most weekends and select weekdays, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine to help them feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away! For walks, I provide safe, enjoyable exercise and time to explore. During drop-in visits, I take care of feeding, potty breaks, litter boxes, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. For overnight stays, I maintain their normal routines and make sure they feel safe and cared for. With over two years of professional experience and as a current Veterinary Technology student at NDSU, I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care for every pet!
About: I have always loved animals and animals have always loved me! I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I helped raise pitbull and mini poodle puppies and I've also helped raise kittens. I'm open to seeing more animals like birds and reptiles! I currently have an open schedule. This may change in a few days but as of right now, i can do anytime. As long as it's at the customer's house. I follow strict rules and procedures put in place for me in your home. I'll bathe your pets, feed them of course, give them love and affection and make sure they go to the potty. If it's a cat I'll make sure to scoop the litter boxes twice a day. I'll even clean your house if you want me to. I'll also make sure your pet stays hydrated and attend to any special needs they may have.
“Callan watched our corgi for just over a week in our home. She was amazing. She sent photos nearly everyday and texted about their time together. She was extremely considerate and left our home better than we left it. In addition to watching our little guy, she brought in packages and watered our flowers. I highly recommend and plan on asking her to watch our dog and home again!”
About: I currently work from home and would love to get my animal fix by walking your dog(s) before work, on my lunch break, or after work! I’ve always had a love for dogs and have grown up in a dog filled household my whole life. Let me know if there’s any additional info I can provide! I work full time from home, so if we live in the same neighborhood I would be happy to set up a weekly/daily walking routine! I will provide exercise as well as lots of love and affection to your furry friend while you’re away! Can re-crate dogs after we’re done playing.
About: I enjoy walking and being outside! I am currently a NICU nurse and only work 3 days a week so I like to find ways to be outside in my free time! I have experience with all sorts of breeds, ages and sizes. We just recently raised and sold a litter last fall! My dog went back home to be on the farm where she has more freedom! I am missing having a dog for sure! I enjoy using pets as a ways to get outside and exercise! I enjoy the happiness each dog brings me, and look forward to experiencing more! I am very good at following directions and pay attention to detail very carefully! I am very observant to each dogs needs and flexible to what they need!
About: Since I was 12 I have non-stop taken care of dogs at any chance I got. I grew up wanting to be a veterinarian so that I could help dogs and animals. In my home town I would constantly watch dogs for family, my neighbors, and friends. From taking their dogs on walks to bathing them, I enjoy every minute of it. I’m a sophomore in college who absolutely loves all animals, dogs in particular. I do school online so I am very available every single day of the week. I do live in an apartment so not necessarily the ideal situation for a dog but I am more than willing to take them places for exercise. I do not have any pets at this time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various sizes from a young age. I have grown up with very large dogs. I have experience boarding and training dogs in Minnesota with the organization Pack Evolution MN. I work a hybrid job and spend lots of time at home throughout the week. My partner and I both stop at home several times in a work day to let our own Labrador out. Whether your dog is very active or very laid back, I can match their energy! I love to take dogs for longer walks if they are able to, as it gives them something to look forward to in their day! I have several enrichment toys in the house as well.
About: Currently a registered nurse. Worked in a vet clinic and went to vet tech school. Has worked with many different dog breeds and temperaments. Has worked with reactive dogs. I work full time in Jamestown so I would be able to assist with Jamestown pets during the week. Then I’m home on weekends so I could board during weekends. I have a fenced yard.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Prairie Rose
Marissa was excellent! She spent a long weekend at our house with our two girlies, and it was clear when we got home that they had been very well cared for. She was professional, trustworthy, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!
Adam was amazing! Great communication, steadfast attention to our dog, and he left the home in even better condition than he found it. Would highly recommend Adam for any dog, even higher maintenance ones like ours, and will be booking him again for future trips! 5 stars!
Hannah put our mind at ease while we went on our first long vacation without Myah. She also braved the cold weather (negative degrees) to make our husky happy. I appreciated the updates and pictures provided throughout her stay. Looked like Myah was comfortable and had fun! Highly recommend Hannah! Super nice, trustworthy and caring person.
Sarah was able to stay aylt my house and watch my elderly dog. I needed someone who was able to be with my dog thoughout the day. I was under the impression she worked from home with occasional office meeting. Out of the 7 workdays she stayed she worked at the office 4 of them. I also asked her if that was to happen to let me know that I could have neighhors let me dog out and she didnt. She did discount my charges.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Prairie Rose is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $64 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Prairie Rose 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 Prairie Rose 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 Prairie Rose 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Prairie Rose. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
