“I hired Kaylee to sit at my home with my Belgian Malinois with separation anxiety. I appreciate her quick responses thru the Rover App, and her willingness to arrive for an early morning appointment. We will definitely call Kaylee again in the near future.”

About: Hi! My name is Bella, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and I’m currently a proud dog mom to two dogs of my own, whom I absolutely adore and care for every day. I have 3 years of experience caring for and loving animals, and I truly believe that pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—even when their parents are away. My goal is to give your pets the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, keeping them on their normal routine, or simply being there for them, I want your pets to feel like they have a friend by their side. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies behind, so I’m here to give you peace of mind while making sure they know they aren’t alone. ❤️🐾 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. With my husband currently away serving in the military, I have more flexibility and time in my schedule to dedicate to something I genuinely love—caring for animals. I’m able to be flexible with my availability and give each pet the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. I love having the opportunity to stay active, spend time with animals, and make pet care a meaningful part of my day while also focusing on myself and building work that I truly enjoy. 🐾❤️ Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in their own home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. I like to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including their feeding schedule, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions their parents provide. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and just as I found it. I’ll give pets plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. I also understand that every pet is different. Some may want lots of cuddles and play, while others may need more patience and personal space. I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾❤️

I’m patient and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I give my own. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions and caring for pets who may need a little extra patience or attention. I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting.

About: I have taken care of cats since I was about 10 years old and dogs since I was about 13. Shortly after I moved out I adopted puppy then a kitten. It was definitely fun training my own puppy. I am currently a stay at home mom who also homeschools my kids. Our dogs are taken out for walks during the day and night. We love playing and cuddling with our cats and dogs throughout our school day. We crate our dogs when we are not home. If your pet is needed to be in a crate when you are not home, I can ensure that will happen.

“We had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She cared for our dog for three days while we were away. From our initial meet and greet, she was kind, patient, and attentive to his needs. She followed our care instructions and was very respectful of our home. We also appreciated her thoughtfulness in securing a few things in our backyard during an unexpected windstorm. It was a small gesture that meant a lot! We look forward to welcoming her back.”

“Meghan was an amazing sitter from the get-go! She was thorough in her questions about how to care for our energetic wire fox terrier, Caspar. She also provided excellent updates and photos while we were away. Meghan went above and beyond, taking our dog to the park, looking after him when he was ill, and provided him with plenty of attention - which demonstrates the highest level of care and commitment! Meghan's the best and we highly recommend her services. We'd work with her again in a heartbeat, and I know our terrier would love that too! Thank you so much Meghan! ❤️”

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have worked at a pet hotel, where I helped care for pets of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have a special love for English Bulldogs and French Bulldogs and understand the attention and care they need. Through my work and personal experience, I’ve become comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, monitoring behavior, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m available for overnight stays and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. As a self-employed house cleaner, I’m also experienced caring for clients’ homes and am known for being dependable, responsible, and trustworthy. I’ll treat your pets like family and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and make time for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and providing companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive consistent care, attention, and love while their owners are away. Whether it’s drop-in visits, overnight stays, or maintaining a pet’s regular routine, I’m committed to keeping pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and a safe space to feel comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. Having worked at a pet hotel and cared for pets throughout my life, I understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and treating every pet like family.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with several pets, primarily Golden Retrievers, and had the privilege of helping raise two litters of puppies. Those early experiences taught me the value of patience, consistency, and creating a loving environment where dogs can flourish. When I was sixteen, our family dog welcomed a litter of eleven puppies, and I was actively involved throughout her pregnancy, the delivery, and the puppies’ early development. One of those puppies became my soul dog, deepening my appreciation for the extraordinary bond between dogs and their families. Over the years, I’ve gained knowledge with caring for puppies, adult dogs, seniors, and pets recovering from surgery. Above all, I make it a priority to help every pet feel protected, nurtured and content while maintaining the routine they’re accustomed to. Whether we’re exploring a neighborhood trail, playing with their favorite toys, practicing positive reinforcement with owner-approved treats, or simply enjoying quiet cuddle time, I strive to make every pet feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend—not just a sitter. Building trust is one of the most rewarding parts of pet sitting. Every dog deserves patience, kindness, and individualized attention, and I take the time to create a genuine connection with each one. My hope is that you’ll return home to a settled companion with the confidence that they were treated like a cherished member of my own family. I currently have open availability as I am working instacart and obtaining my Yoga teacher training certification. If you need someone reliable and loving to take care of your fur baby, I will be there! I understand that every pet and every family has unique routines and preferences. My priority is to provide care that aligns with your pet’s normal schedule so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to accommodate your needs. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, tidy, and secure. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that’s just as you left it.

I had never left my fur babies with a sitter before, so I was nervous but Jon and Stephine put me at ease right away with pictures and text messages.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I also live on a farm where I care for a variety of animals, which has given me hands-on experience understanding different personalities, temperaments, behaviors, and individual care needs. I know that no two animals are the same, and I take the time to understand what makes each one feel safe and comfortable. In addition to my hands-on animal experience, I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and knowledge of behavioral principles that I apply when working with dogs, including positive reinforcement, consistency, recognizing behavioral cues, and encouraging appropriate behaviors. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, as well as puppies and dogs who may need additional patience, structure, or reassurance. I understand how important it is to completely trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or prefers cuddles and a quiet companion, I’ll provide care based on their individual personality and routine—not a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m also happy to reinforce training routines you already use at home and carefully follow instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and daily care. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away, and I’ll keep you connected with regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I do my best to accommodate their normal feeding, walking, potty, playtime, and bedtime schedules. I’m available for both weekday and weekend care and will communicate clearly with you regarding scheduling and your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions before their stay. I provide a clean, comfortable and supervised environment with plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and downtime. I never assume two pets have the same needs and will always follow the care instructions you provide. I also believe communication builds trust, so you can expect regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sage

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Sage on Rover is $78 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $88 per night. 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 1,294 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sage. 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 Sage 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 Sage 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sage 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.
