“Stacy took great care of my fur baby! She sent me daily updates and pictures of him, and made sure to spend so much time giving him attention. This was my first time leaving Bentley, and I felt so comfortable leaving him in such great hands! She even took him on extra walks, and I couldn’t be more grateful :)”
“Caitlin took great care of my pups! I really loved that she took additional time for a meet and greet to ask necessary questions about my fur babies & provided lots of updates while I was away!”
“Rose is a gem. 💛 This was our first time using a pet sitting service and I was honestly hesitant about having someone stay in our home for five nights. But the second we did the meet-and-greet and Biscuit (my heart in Labradoodle form) immediately decided Rose was a good person… I knew we were going to be okay. While we were gone, Rose kept us so well updated and made it easy to actually relax. She took Biscuit on walks, gave her lots of love and attention, and she was so sweet and thoughtful with our senior schnauzer, Piper. You can tell she truly cares. We came home to happy pups and peace of mind, and that’s everything. We’ll 100% book Rose again.”
“Katelyn was amazing. We received plenty of updates on our animals at all times. She also took very well care of our home. We came back to a cleaner house than we left her with. We will be using Katelyn in the future for sure.”
“Kira was very thorough and detail-oriented. All of my animals loved her, even with their strange personalities. She sent me a lot of updates and made sure we knew what was going on all the time. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Norma is a rockstar! She was so communicative, kind, and completely respectful of our home. Most of all she was the sweetest to our little man Leonard. We will absolutely be requesting her again! 10 out of 10”
“Ms. Olivia watched our dogs overnight at our home for 5 days and it was a nice experience. She made sure to give updates, sent pictures, combed them, and even let them sleep with her. We really apple her loving on our fur babies”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing! My dogs loved her, and she kept me at ease the entire time with consistent updates, messages, and photos. She truly went above and beyond—not only taking great care of my dogs, but also leaving my home spotless. She washed the sheets and towels she used, cleaned up, and handled everything with so much care and attention to detail. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was the first time we left our dogs with anyone but family. Emily did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend her! Very responsible and accommodating! Our dogs loves her!”
“Julie is an amazing sitter — reliable, caring, and truly treats our pets like her own. She goes above and beyond to make sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable while we’re away. We always come home to happy, relaxed cats! We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust completely!”
“After our regular pet sitter canceled on short notice I found Taylor through the app. She was extremely responsive and even offered to come meet the pets prior to watching them for the weekend. She took great care of our pets at our home, and communicated with us to let us know the pets were doing well while we were gone. I highly recommend her. We will be using Taylor again for sure.”
“Shanna did an amazing job taking care of our three fur babies! She kept us updated throughout our time away and made sure we knew how each one was doing. She even went above and beyond by giving one of our pups a bath when he was feeling a little itchy. It was clear that she truly cared for them and treated them like her own. Honestly, I think our pups were almost disappointed to see us come home so soon because they were having such a great time with her! We also came home to a house that was cleaner than when we left it, which was such a wonderful surprise. We highly recommend Shanna and will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups!”

“John was great very communicative, attentive, and punctual with Bella. This was my first experience using a sitter outside of my family, and I must say I was really happy to have found him. He made the entire process comfortable and stress-free, and I would absolutely recommend him as a sitter.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Shanna! We’ve lived a lot of places and booked through rover frequently and she is top notch. She communicated frequently with updates and pictures and you could tell our two dogs and cat took to her immediately! I would absolutely recommend her as someone to trust your fur babies with.”

Malachi was wonderful! He house sitting our two dogs for a week and everything went so well! He sent us pictures and kept us updated. We highly recommend Malachi, our crazy dogs absolutely love him. He is a great dog sitter, very respectful and responsible.
I could not be more pleased with Caitlin‘s care of my two pups! I was able to go on vacation for a week and have no worries. One of my dogs is diabetic and needed twice daily blood checks and insulin injections. Everything went seamlessly. She gave me twice daily updates and several pictures per day. Caitlin also watered potted plants for me and took excellent care of my home. I can highly recommend her to anyone needing a house or pet sitter!

Aubrey watched my dogs Louie and Ella for four nights. This was my first time leaving my dogs alone for that long. I was nervous to leave them but she quickly put me at ease. She was accommodating to all their needs, gave me regular updates including pictures and videos. I will definitely use her services again when needed.
Absolutely fantastic! Took incredible care of my dogs for a week while I was out of country. She communicates excellently and you will always know your dogs are in great hands. I will 100% be booking again and I highly advise anyone looking for dog sitting to not hesitate and reach out to Kate!
Nicole and her husband came to visit the dogs beforehand and are very nice people! Took a little too long to reply for us at some times but kept us updated as things arose. We had some damage, from the dogs that was communicated to us, on the baseboards that were a little excessive so we were a little upset about that. The house was very clean when we did come back though!

FAQs for House Sitting - Rayford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rayford on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,219 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rayford. 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 Rayford 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 Rayford 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 Rayford 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.

- 98% 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.
