“Kathryn took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She provided great care, and I came home to a happy, well-loved cat. As an added bonus, Kathryn cleaned and organized my place before she left, which was such a pleasant surprise after traveling! It was wonderful to return home knowing my cat had been well cared for and that everything was neat and tidy. Thank you so much, Kathryn!”
“Lucinda took great care of my three cats during the holidays! One of my cats had a life threatening medical emergency last Christmas, so I was nervous to head out of town, but knew each of my cats and my house were in great hands.”
“This was the second time Erika cared for my cat, Roxy, and she did a wonderful job. As always, she was attentive, reliable, and thoughtful in her care. She followed instructions to a tee and spent quality time playing with Roxy and working on her puzzles. I especially appreciated her detailed updates and the many fun photos she shared, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she truly understands Roxy’s personality and routines. I returned to a relaxed, happy cat and a home that was clean and well cared for. She also took extra steps preparing my home for my return, which was a thoughtful touch. I would happily trust her to care for Roxy again and confidently recommend her to others.”
“Bry was so caring and loving to my pets my neighbors even noticed. She is very kind, Profesional and trustworthy. She was punctual and very communicative. I will definitely hire her again. I had s great experience using Rover for the first time. I felt very reassured and relaxed about the process”
“We came home to a well cared for happy and healthy Zuzu. Mathew was extremely good at keeping us informed with updates complimented with pictures of our dog doing all things that they do. Our home was very clean when we returned from an overseas trip and our numerous plants were well watered. Should you need a true dog person, someone who demonstrates real affection towards your pet and has the highest professional standards then Mathew is your guy. We hold him in the highest regard.”
“Lisa was a wonderful sitter for my pup. I was leaving my pup for 8 days, the longest I’d ever left him. He has some anxiety, so I was really anxious about it, but she put my mind at ease immediately. She spent lots of time with him, sent me lots of updates and overall it went really well. Charlie is looking forward to Auntie Lisa staying with him again!”
“Exceptionally professional and our fur babies love her! She took excellent care of our dog and cat while we were away, sending lots of photos to keep us in the loop. And the house was spic and span when we got home. Love her!”
“Adriana just sat for 4 nights at my house with my two dogs, one of whom is elderly and special needs. He has mobility issues and incontinence, and Adriana didn’t flinch at cleaning up after him. She sent lots of updates and I felt a lot more comfortable with her than I usually do with a first-time sitter! She really seems to appreciate my dogs, who can be a LOT, but she doted on them with patience and compassion, and kept me updated when my older dog had a concerning issue. I will def use her again and I recommend her as a caring and conscientious sitter!”
“Alyssa has been a wonderful dog sitter for us, and we’ve used her many times. She is very responsible, responsive, and always keeps us updated with regular messages and photos of our dog, which gives us great peace of mind while we’re away. She also takes great care of our home and always leaves it clean and tidy. We truly appreciate her reliability and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter.”
“Libby’s great. Third or maybe fourth time we’ve used her. Past stays were just long weekends but this time was a full week. Daily check-ins and photos. Our dog had a health thing come up and she stayed on top of it and kept us posted the whole time. Easy to reach. Flexible. Put the trash cans out, brought in packages. House looked great when we got back. We’ll definitely hire her again.”
“We are so grateful to have Donita sit with our ol' man of a dog. This last stay, he decided to chase a rabbit in our backyard and Donita was beyond amazing! She took him to the vet, gave medication, communicated with us every step, AND actually slept with him downstairs to help his back heal. The vet even when out of their way to tell me what an amazing dog sitter she was, saying she was more caring and knowledgeable than any dog sitter they have seen. We still came home to clean sheets and a cared for house!”
“Rachel was great! We have a Saint Bernard and 2 cats and they loved her. She sent us photos while we on vacation and gave us regular updates. This was the first time we have left our pets with anyone, and Rachel was very respectful of our pets and our space. We were very apprehensive about hiring a random person to care for our pets, but the second we met Rachel we were put at ease. Rachel asked us questions about the care of our pets that we hadn't thought about, which gave us the confidence that she knows what she doing. She is amazing and we will definitely rebook with her.”
“I had Sara house sit with my two cats for a week. Excellent service; Sara provided photo updates as requested, and kept the house just as I had left it.”
“Melanie was a fantastic watcher and companion to our pug and three cats! It's always stressful to travel and leave our pets behind and Melanie made us feel immediately at ease with her thoughtful attention to detail. Upon return home from our trip, our animals were in great spirits and showed signs of being very content and happy -- thank you, Melanie!!”
“Dani was great and just what we were looking for! She honored all of her commitments re: updates on the pups and when she needed to come and go. We would def book her again!”
“I had a great experience with Malissa. The thing that I appreciated the most is her communication. I always knew everything about my doggo and how he is doing and I got pictures every night. She even contacted me with weather warnings during the big storm Portland had during my travels and was willing to stick around if my flight got canceled. Will recommend and rebook for sure.”
“Lynden was wonderful and my pets were very happy when I got home. I especially appreciated that she took Kirby for a run… Kirby loves to run, and I am sure Lynden was faster than me. Definitely will have her back!”
“I highly recommend Julia/Al. The care they took of my two dogs was outstanding - very attentive and caring. I came home to a clean house and happy doggies. I will definitely welcome Julia/Al into my home again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Raleigh Hills
Tatiana was incredibly responsive and provided regular updates of our puppy and cat. She also was able to help administer oral meds to our fussy cat and manage our high-energy puppy while leaving our house in a cleaner state than we left it. We’d definitely rebook with her.
Sara is fantastic! Felt super comfortable with her staying at our home and caring for our somewhat high-maintenance dog. She spent a lot of dedicated time with him which we really appreciated as it make him less anxious with our absence. She also left no trace - our house looks exactly like it did when we left. Grateful for Sara’s services and already hoping to hire her for our next trip!
Adrianna took wonderful care of our two dogs, Wrigley and Darby, over the Fourth of July while staying in our home. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We came home to two content pups and a well-looked-after house. We highly recommend Adrianna and would absolutely trust her to care for Wrigley and Darby again!
Alex was great! She took excellent care of both our cat and dog (and made sure our chickens had water). It was clear from the updates and photos that our pets were well cared for and loved. Our dog was glued to her for snuggles and assurance while we were gone and she even won over our introverted cat. We came home to happy pets and a clean home. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and attentive sitter!
Tasha was perhaps the best sitter we have ever had for Onion. She helped him attend our wedding and was so attentive and detailed and caring… it was genuinely unbelievable. If it weren’t for her, the day would have been so much more difficult, and she allowed us to include my best bud into the ceremony seemlessly. 100% recommend, Tasha is the absolute best!!!
Stephanie and Alex are true pros. We just finished a week-long house sitting with them. They were responsive from the very start. Daily updates and photos. House looked great. Two dogs and cat were happy and relaxed when we got home. Reliable and clearly experienced with animals. We would absolutely book them again and would have no hesitation recommending them.
I could not be more grateful for Erika. This is the second time we’ve had her watch out pups and she’s so attentive to our pups. We have one pup who has epilepsy and Erika has been really watchful. She communicates regularly with us, checks in on behaviors she’s noticing and takes great care of our home. We plan to continue working with her!
Michelle was wonderful with our dog and cat while we were gone for 5 nights! It was so nice to get check-in messages and photos and know that our babies were getting great care while we weren’t able to be there. Our house was left spotless and we couldn’t be more appreciative!
Kathryn took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She provided great care, and I came home to a happy, well-loved cat. As an added bonus, Kathryn cleaned and organized my place before she left, which was such a pleasant surprise after traveling! It was wonderful to return home knowing my cat had been well cared for and that everything was neat and tidy. Thank you so much, Kathryn!
If I could give Michelle ten stars I would! She helped us out when we were in a bind and was very flexible. She was great with our dog and two cats and provided updates regularly. I could tell our dog was genuinely happy to have her around. And she left our house spotless. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Raleigh Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Raleigh Hills on Rover is $49.95 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 4,573 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Raleigh Hills. 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 Raleigh Hills 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 Raleigh Hills 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 Raleigh Hills 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 Raleigh Hills. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
