“Super responsible and kind! Briona was wonderful with Katsu, and he absolutely loved her! Very trustworthy, and I was happy to have her stay overnight with Katsu in my home.”
“Michelle was great with Lola and sent so many pictures to give us peace of mind! We will definitely book with her again. She stayed in our home and it was left exactly as we left in- she even brought in our packages. Cannot thank her enough!”
“Emily house-sit our dog Amber for 4 days. I cannot recommend her enough and cannot wait to work with her again. First of all, she was able to stop by earlier in the day than I initially set the sitting for, and let Amber out midday and come back later to start the actual sitting. I hugely appreciated this since I made a mistake in the reservation start time. She was great with photo and text updates. From all the photos I could tell how happy Amber was. Her food and medication schedule was kept the same and she had lots of fun with Emily. And I have to say that the house was left immaculate. She went the extra mile to unload the dishwasher that I accidentally left in full, and took out all the trash. None of which were her responsibility but she truly went above and beyond and we appreciated all of it. We cannot wait to have her take care of Amber agan.”
“Sarah was AMAZING! Incredibly accommodating. Fantastic, even though last minute. And took care of all FOUR of our fur-babies when we were out of town! Will definitely be using her in the future. Our favorite Rover sitter yet!”
“Kimberly has a beautiful energy that the dogs responded well to. I could tell from the photos she sent that they were having a fabulous time playing with her. When I got home they were safe and sound and relaxed...and even a bit tuckered out, which was perfect considering I'd had a long day!”
“Nikkii was absolutely great. She sent pictures and kept me posted on how they were doing daily. My 2 crazy fur babies loved her and can't wait to see her again! Thank you for taking such great care of them”
About: I grew up with a standard poodle and multiple cats and have fostered a total of 13 cats (Austin Pets Alive). I have cat, dog, and house sitting experience. I have experience working with animals of all ages. I have experience working with incontinent dogs. I have experience working with cats who are on oral medications. I have experience working with animals wearing a cone/donut I am self employed and work part-time at a coffee shop Tuesday through Friday which allows me to be extremely flexible and available for assistance! I treat every animal as if they were my own! Consistency is important (routine, feeding times, exercise, etc). I follow my intuition and listen to what an animal is trying to tell me based on their behavior and/or body language
“I came home to a happy healthy pup and my house was just the way I left it. Jenna sent pictures and updates and we were able to communicate with ease. She has the most wonderful personality. My dog is fun but she is also an attention seeker. Jenna handles her with grace.”
About: My name is Katelyn, and I’m a Pre-Vet student who has loved and cared for animals my entire life. I have professional experience as both a dog walker and a house sitter, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of temperaments, routines, and special care needs. In addition, I work closely with a rescue organization where I’ve fostered many dogs and cats of all ages, gaining hands-on experience with young animals, socialization, and daily care. I recently graduated with a degree in Animal Science and a minor in Equine Studies, and I plan to continue pursuing my path toward veterinary school. Through both my education and hands-on experience, I’ve developed a strong foundation in animal behavior, handling, welfare, and medical care. Over the summers, I work as a veterinary technician, where I gain practical experience with animal health, safety, and clinical care. I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of species, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I would truly love the opportunity to help care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away! I am currently working part-time and have a pretty flexible schedule! I am available for house sitting or dog walking any day of the week. I always care for pets according to their normal routine and the owner’s preferences since consistency helps animals feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise or playtime, and receive lots of attention and positive interaction. I’m careful to follow any specific instructions for medications, diets, training cues, or household rules. I also make sure litter boxes, yards, and feeding areas stay clean. I like to keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they know how their pet is doing. For shy or nervous pets, I am patient and let them warm up at their own pace. For energetic pets, I’m happy to provide extra play and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel relaxed, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
“We had to travel for our daughter's wedding. Lot's of planning and packing. I booked with Jade about a month out. He came and met the dogs. Absolutely delighted to come home freshly vacuumed floor and some very happy Doggies ..He kept us informed. It was so nice to not to stress about the dogs, knowing they were being well taken care of so we could enjoy this big event!”
“Camryn was beyond amazing!! She went above and beyond with her communication from the first request to meet&greet and throughout the sit. My dog fell a bit sick during her stay and she took great care of him (and the carpet). She's very kind and considerate not just towards the pet but also to their humans. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Shannon always goes above and beyond with our pups. She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, and really goes the extra mile to make sure they are well taken care of. She stayed at our house for a week with them, and really put us at ease while we were away. We love (and the pups love!) having Shannon watch them!!!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. At one point we had 4 dogs in the house! I am a dog-lover above all, but I also LOVE cats and understand them and their boundaries. I look forward to making new furry friends :) I currently work part-time on Saturdays and am a grad student during the Fall and Spring. Pet care is an AWESOME addition to my open schedule! I have overnight “cat-sat” on and off for the last two years. I do not leave any messes and am respectful of others’ spaces. I keep to myself and read books or do homework online when I stay the night somewhere—as well as hanging with critters!! I am professional and respectful about the work I do🩷
“Great job. On time and super professional. She made it a point to stay with our pup as much as possible. She sent pictures and was obviously playing with our high energy dog. She even ran the dishwasher as she left. I would highly recommend”
“Kat was an absolutely awesome dog sitter. My husband and I were looking for someone to stay in our home last minute and care for our dogs and Kat was immediately responsive and proactive. She was timely, followed instructions, provided updates throughout the day and the dogs were very well cared for. I would highly recommend Kat as a dog walker or dog sitter. We hope to work with her again!”
About: I had a maltese puppy for 10 years from age 9 weeks onward and most recently had a shih tzu puppy that turned 1 on 5/28/25. In the past I've had pets including hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and fish of my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so your pup will get lots of attention and care throughout the day. Here's what a typical day looks like when your dog is with me: 🐾 Morning (7am–10am): Potty break, breakfast, and a light walk or play session 🐾 Midday (11am–2pm): Walks, potty breaks, enrichment games, or just relaxing cuddle time 🐾 Afternoon (3pm–6pm): Another walk or active playtime in a safe, calm environment 🐾 Evening (7pm–9pm): Dinner, a final potty break, and winding down for the night I'm available for: ✅ Drop-in visits ✅ Dog walking ✅ Puppy care Weekend and holiday availability included! I’m happy to accommodate special routines, medications, or specific instructions your dog needs to feel comfortable and loved. When you trust me to care for your dog, I show up with love, respect, and attention to detail — all in the comfort of your dog’s familiar surroundings. 🐶 In-Home Peace of Mind: I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most secure. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit, taking your pup for a walk, or staying overnight, I follow your routine closely to minimize stress and keep your dog calm and happy. 🦴 Personalized, Gentle Care: I specialize in small breeds and have over 10 years of experience. From meal schedules and potty routines to medication or calming techniques, I provide care tailored to your dog’s specific needs. 🚶🏽♀️ Safe & Engaging Walks: Walks are done one-on-one in familiar areas, with close attention to your pet’s energy level, leash behavior, and comfort. I avoid crowded dog parks or risky environments to keep your dog safe. 📝 Trustworthy & Transparent: I communicate clearly, provide updates, and send photos during every visit. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, whether I’m there for 20 minutes or staying the night. Your pet stays safe, your home is respected, and you can relax knowing your furry family member is in loving, responsible hands.
“Whitnee was wonderful with our pugs during an overnight stay in our home while we were traveling. Highly recommended, and would absolutely hire again to take care of our girls.”
“David stayed in our house with our dog and rabbit for a week while we were traveling and I could not recommend someone more highly. He was attentive to the needs of our pets and took my dog out on long walks at the park on a daily basis. He sent us pictures and updates frequently and took excellent care of our house. He took out the trash and even vacuumed our house before we came home! David is a one of a kind sitter who goes above and beyond. I will definitely ask him to come back in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rockfall
Emily was phenomenal, again! She stayed with our senior dog, Amber, for 9 days while we were out of country. Her communication was great, and it was obvious our dog had a great bond with her. From all the photos it was clear that Amber loved her company. She was fed on time, her meds were given to her on schedule, and she had a lot of indoor and outdoor play time. Also before leaving, Emily cleaned the house which made coming to home even more pleasant. I highly recommend her as she is very responsible, responsive, and a joy for our dog to be around.
We were able to have a worry-free get away because Christopher was taking care of the homefront. He was very reliable and was great at communicating with us the whole time and he clearly took great care of our boy, Domino. Thank you Christopher. We will certainly call on you again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Rockfall
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rockfall 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 1,650 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rockfall. 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 Rockfall 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 Rockfall 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 Rockfall 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
