“Stuart took amazing care of my dog, Denali, while I was out of town. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. Denali loved him! I completely trust Stuart and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.”
“Julie was punctual, communicative, and respectful of our training plan with Bluey. She kept our home clean. She responded quickly and put me at ease. I can tell the love she has for animals.”
“We LOVE how much Shalindra loves our dogs, and they love her! She keeps us thoroughly updated and sends plenty of pictures and videos so we know they’re doing well. She is someone who you know just adores spending time with dogs, which helps us know she’s enjoying her time with our pups, even if one of our dogs is insane haha. Highly recommend Shalindra if you want someone to truly enjoy hanging out with your pups and update you along the way.”
“Kaitlyn took care of our three kitties for an extended vacation, including pilling, cleaning, reporting on minor concerns, taking care of the house, and cleaning everything up for our return. She updated us very consistently and with pictures, which was super helpful and reassuring as this was our first trip away from them for more than 8 hours due to one of them requiring a medication every 8 hours. In addition to doing a great job, she is a delight to talk to and all of her communication from start to finish has been professional and prompt. We highly recommend Kaitlyn!”
“Alex was the perfect weekend buddy for our two pitbull mixes. They showed up right on time for the meet and greet, and seemed happy and patient to be around the dogs. During the pet sitting, we received several updates and dog photos which we always appreciate. We came back to our home exactly how we had left it. We would definitely book Alex again, and would recommend them to others as well!”
“Another great visit from Brooklin. She never gives up on my grumpy, old man Siamese. Old lady Stella gets more love and adventures than we can give her with our many kids! Count down until the next visit!”
“Stephanie did a great job with Aurora at our home for over a week. It was Aurora’s first time being house sat alone and we could tell Stephanie was patient with her. She provided daily updates and photos and even helped with the trash and bringing in deliveries. 10/10 – would recommend. Thank you!”
“Tim was wonderful with our dog Atlas! We received thorough daily updates and pictures while we were away and came home to a spotless house and a healthy, happy, and relaxed dog. He took the time to get to know Atlas and treated him like he was his own. We’re so relieved to have found Tim!”
“Madison is a gem! Professional, trustworthy, and a true protector for our dogs. She communicated beautifully throughout the week and handled everything with grace. Chacha and Khai were so well-cared for—we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”
“We love Hunter! He takes great care of our dogs. He was especially good over the July 4th holiday with fireworks. One of our dogs is very sensitive and needs medication and lots of love during the big booms. He kept by her side and made her as comfortable as possible. I highly recommend him especially if you have a sensitive dog.”
“I highly recommend Lisandra! During an extended visit in Seattle we needed a dog sitter for 1 day. Lisandra came to our AirBnB and spent the day providing companionship, walks, and play time with Murphy. When we got home, he was cuddling on the couch with her. If we ever again need a sitter while in Seattle, I'll reach out to Lisandra and am recommending her to my Seattle family & friends.”
“Briana was a fantastic sitter for my dog, communicating throughout the trip and sent nice pictures. She followed all instructions and was kind and quick to respond to throughout the process. My timid pitty warmed up to her extremely quickly, which is no small feat! I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs”
“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 🤎”
“Alexandria is so fabulous! She is great with our two dogs and always leaves our home in great shape. Would highly recommend her services - I'll certainly be working with her again!”
“We are so grateful for Sara taking an unexpected dog sitting job for us. She was great with communicating with us about what was going on each day and have our dog extra love. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. We would 100% have Sara sit for us again!”
About: I am trained in animal welfare by AZA accredited institution, and committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, and I am ready to help active dogs burn off energy with walks, run, and play. I am a long time pet owner and my first dog care experience came from my pet cockapoo "Felix". I base my daily and weekly routine around the wants and needs of the animals I am caring for to ensure their comfort and wellbeing. I keep pets comfortable by providing care in their own homes, following their routines exactly as instructed and communicating with owners as needed or wanted. On walks or trips to parks, I ensure safety with double checking leashes, getting to know the pets temperament, and staying cautious.

Brooklin took amazing care of our 2 dogs. She took them on adventures, played with them at home and provided plenty of love and attention. Communication was good before and during her stay. I would recommend Brooklin - we hope to have her stay with our pups in the future!
We had a wonderful experience with Raven. She was a great communicator, kept our home clean and well cared for, and took such amazing care of our pup while we were away. She also sent lots of pictures of all the cuddles and walks, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was happy and in such good hands. We would absolutely use Raven again and highly recommend her!
Mary is such an amazing cat and house sitter. We have had her cat/housesit before, but this was her first visit with our new cat. Mary is knowledgeable l, kind and thoughtful in her care of pets. She kept us updated with great photos and stories on how our cat was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind to enjoy our trip! All our plants, house and especially our cat were good and well taken care of while we were gone. Highly recommend Mary!
Cassie was nothing short of amazing! We have an older pup who is hard to leave with anyone who doesn’t u destined her and some needy kitty’s. Cassie stayed at our house and cared for our animals and our house like it was her own. I can’t feel you how much it made our vacation better knowing that everything was in great hands. And coming home was a breeze! I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future when we need a sitter!
Alexandria was really great with Cooper. She took him on walks and spent quality time with him outside on the porch, which I really appreciated. She also kept me updated throughout the stay with photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She was very respectful of the space and left the house in such great condition that I could barely tell she was even there. I would absolutely recommend her to others and would definitely hire her again.
Hailey did any amazing job of taking care of our fur-baby Spence and the house while we were out of town. Spence was a happy boy, and the house was in the same condition as when we left. We will definitely be reaching out to Hailey for future pet and/or house-sitting needs. Thanks, Hailey!
As always, Emily is reliable and dependable, and takes wonderful care of our house and precious dogs. We can’t imagine having anyone else house/dog sit for us. Her communication is excellent and she’s flexible and adaptable i.e. when we had to ask her to feed our son’s gecko :) we highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Riverton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Riverton on Rover is $61.05 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 8,343 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 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.

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.
