“Kaitlynn, was very nice and sweet to our ederly black lab Jessie. She did an incredible job and went above and beyond giving her lots of special care and assistance while house/dog sitting for us. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone on Rover.”
“Addi was amazing with Snoopy and after meeting her I knew he was in good hands and so I had no separation anxiety leaving him. He was happy when I arrived home and could tell he had been taken good care of. Don’t hesitate using her to care for your fur babies!”
“Carrie was very responsive when I contacted her about booking which I appreciated. It was a last minute booking, she already had plans for the weekend but made arrangements to watch my two dogs and house for the weekend. As I reached out to her she gave me updates on how they were doing. I came home to happy dogs and my home clean. Would book her services again.”
About: I’ve been pet and house sitting since I was 16 and have experience caring for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and even farm animals like pigs, cows, and horses. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from litters of kittens to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention. I love spending time with animals, especially taking dogs on walks and making sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. As a part-time college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals between classes and am able to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting while making sure pets stay comfortable, active, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for by following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, giving plenty of attention and exercise, and keeping owners updated while they’re away. For dog walks, I focus on safety, patience, and making sure each dog gets the right pace and activity level for their needs and personality.

“Samantha was amazing with my babies! She would ensure that they got daily exercise either by taking them out for walks and even going to the dog park.

“Jamie B. was great to work with. She came over ahead of time to meet the dogs and make sure everyone was comfortable, and you could tell right away they liked her.

Abigail took care of our 4 yo border collie/husky mix over the 4th of July weekend. Our pup is not a fan of fireworks and Abigail was sure to keep Nala loved, safe, and medicated for anxiety. Abigail timed walks and potty breaks around fireworks to try and keep Nala as comfortable as possible, showing a sincere care that brought us great relief. We appreciated Abigail’s updates and photos, and how clean she left our home upon departure. Would definitely hire again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rexburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rexburg on Rover is $32.1 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 125 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rexburg. 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 Rexburg 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 Rexburg 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 Rexburg 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
