“Casey is amazing! She watched my kitten while I was out of town and took excellent care of her. Great communication. I felt at ease the entire time I was away. She left my home spotless. Highly recommend! It’s so nice to have someone you trust in your home with your pets.”
“Shalindra was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Kahlua, while we were away. She went above and beyond in every way, even accommodating a last-minute flight delay and staying later than planned on her birthday to make sure Kahlua was cared for. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, and it was clear Kahlua had a great time with all of the park adventures and extra attention. When we returned, Kahlua was happy, freshly bathed, and our home was spotless. Shalindra was incredibly respectful of our house and treated both our dog and our home with so much care. We felt completely at ease knowing Kahlua was in such capable hands and would gladly trust Shalindra again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel was communicative with updates throughout the home stay! Our high energy pups were tuckered out when we came back. The house was clean and tidy which was appreciated. Would recommend Rachel for anyone.”
“Eric went above and beyond when he took care of our pets. He provided thorough updates for us while we were gone, and even sent lots of pictures of our babies. When we came home, it was just as clean as when we left it! 10/10 would recommend Eric to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and we hope to book with him again in the future!”
“John was excellent, and took the very best care of my babies! I was anxious leaving them but he sent updates every day, with pictures and videos and he followed all the directions I left (which is huge because it was about 6 pages worth of notes 😅). If I'm ever out of town again, I'll book him if he's available. Highly recommend! Thank you, John! From Me and my Crew 🤎”
“Cassandra was great with our two boys. She was very attentive to their needs and gave me constant updates which I appreciated GREATLY. Would def book again! Thank you Cassandra!”
“Meiyee took amazing care of our stubborn old dog (Cloud) for more than a week recently. When we got back from vacation Cloud was in a good mood and healthy. Meiyee is a loving caretaker and I would highly recommend her.”
“Ali was a great sitter! She sent me a picture of our doggies when she arrived and let me know how things went and how the dogs got along. She left our house just as good as we did. :) Thank you, Ali! We'll book with you again.”
“Jayce instantly had a connection with our girls and a calming effect on both of them. Such a relief having someone dependable to watch them, in our home, while we are out of town. I fully recommend Jayce.”
“Joyce was kind, responsive, and took wonderful care of our two senior dogs. She was our first house sitter from Rover and it gave us great peace of mind to know she was here taking care of our boys. She left the house cleaner than it was when she got here, send pictures and took lots of walks. I would highly recommend her staying in your house to hold down the fort while you're away. Her dog Ilah was so sweet and our boys just seemed to get along great with her while she stayed. Thank you so much Joyce!”
“Christina was amazing with our 2 year old Doberman (who had a lot of energy) our 4 year old cat! She was very responsive and provided updates while we were away. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking again 🥰”
“Did an amazing job watching my fur babies while I was out of town. Takes the cutest photos & provides consistent updates. It was reassuring knowing my dogs were in good hands, they were so relaxed and happy when I got home. Will definitely re-book!”
“Morgan was excellent! Struck the right balance of keeping us up to date without too much information so we could enjoy our trip. She sent plenty of pictures and really made us feel like our pups had someone who loved them almost as much as us taking care of them. I would highly recommend Morgan to anyone who needs their pups or house watched she was fantastic! We will definitely book with her in the future. P.S. our pups can be a little bit of a pain and she handled everything with finesse and grace. I can't express enough how appreciative we are that she was able to deal with their little quirks!”
“Timothy was great! We found him communicative, punctual, and polite. We appreciated the pictures of our pets while we were away and his flexibility made our trip more relaxed. Thanks!”
“Dylan was great with our dog! We needed a last minute house sitter for our dog and Dylan was so communicative, kind, and made sure to ask questions to take the best care of our dog. Dizzy warmed up to Dylan quickly and even went looking for Dylan before bed when we came home. We will definitely book with Dylan again.”
“Ellie was wonderful. Our house was actively going through construction / painting and most of the top floor was occupied with folks coming in and out during her stay. Ellie managed the entire thing wonderfully, took excellent care of our doggo, and made us feel completely at ease during some unexpected travel. Thank you as always, Ellie!!”
“Lisa was a wonderful sitter! She gave daily updates, our home was clean, and our dog was such a happy camper upon our return. I know she was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Lisa and book again! Thank you for loving our girl 🐶💓”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
Brooklin is amazing! I have for years, had anxiety about leaving my fur babies while my husband and I travel. I refused to board my animals so it left me with few family and friends to reach out too. I took a chance on Rover and saw all of Brooklins reviews and once we met I understand why. She listened to how I take care of my pets and what makes them feel at home. She kept me updated every day with cute pictures and videos. She took my dog to the dog park and made sure my kitties got their treats everyday! If you are worried about having someone watch your animals and yiur house; reach out to Brooklin, she is the best!
Shirley did a great job of watching my boys Momo and Charlie during the day for 9 days while I was abroad with my family. She sent pics and gave me lots of updates. I came home and the dogs were happy and looked good. My roommate who was here in the morning and night didn’t even notice her, which was the plan! Would absolutely ask Shirley to watch my guys again!
Casey is amazing! She watched my kitten while I was out of town and took excellent care of her. Great communication. I felt at ease the entire time I was away. She left my home spotless. Highly recommend! It’s so nice to have someone you trust in your home with your pets.
Julie was AMAZING! I was very nervous as a first timer with both my house and fur baby. Julie made me feel at ease and provided the best care for both Amelia and our home. We got daily updates and pictures on how things were going which we greatly appreciated. We chose Julie because of her outstanding reviews and she totally lived up to them. I would 100% recommend Julie for house or dog sitting and she will be my go to person in the future for any upcoming needs. Amelia misses her now that we are home and was sitting by the door of our guest room this morning. She is defiantly the best experience I have ever had with dog sitting or boarding in the past 30 years. The Amelia and I were very happy with the experience.
Satsuki did an amazing job watching Eleanor! As a self-proclaimed anxious, helicopter dog mom, I always dread finding new sitters for my baby. However, Satsuki's excellent communication and vibe completely put me at ease after our meet and greet. She gave me daily updates and let me know the exact moment Eleanor received her medication. I loved getting the frequent photos and mood updates throughout my trip! On top of taking perfect care of my place, she was even kind enough to pick up a package for me. Satsuki is basically a spaniel expert now and truly understands the unique, quirky nature of these velcro breeds. I highly recommend her!
Becca was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs! She was responsible, tidy, and kept us well informed with regular updates while we were away. We felt completely comfortable trusting her with the dogs, and she made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well walked throughout her stay. One of our dogs needed daily medication, and Becca handled it perfectly. We’d definitely book Becca again and would happily recommend her!
Briana was amazing! She agreed to come by for a short visit before the booked time to meet George and get a walkthrough of his needs and the space, she was super friendly and kind and listened to my rambling list of things to know to take care of George. While I was gone, she sent frequent updates with pictures and descriptions of how he’d been and how they’d played together. George was happy and healthy when I came home and I’m so grateful that she kept him company and took care of him.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Riverton is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $106 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.
As of October 2026, there are 8,135 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Riverton. 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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
