“Melissa is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. When we returned home from a 5 day trip, I could just tell that she took amazing care of our Koda. Also, from the pictures she sent daily, I could tell my dog adored her, which meant everything to me. It was apparent from the moment Melissa met Koda during our initial meet and greet that she is very personable and really amazing with animals. In addition, she is an excellent communicator who was very responsive and left our house immaculate. I highly recommend Melissa as a caring, responsible pet sitter.”
“Santiago was very flexible and available when I needed a last minute booking for a sitting. Zoey had a great visit and was well taken care of. Santiago made sure to have my place spick and span when I arrived home after a long day of travel and emotional weekend with my family. Most certainly would book again!”
“Taylor is super down to Earth and is always great with our dog Bobo. He regularly sends us updates and makes sure she gets plenty of exercise. We always have peace of mind when Taylor is sitting our dog when we plan trips to go out of town. I’m not even sure she wants us to come home when he is with her. Thank you Taylor!!”
“Connie was amazing handling my 3 high strung little dogs. She provided many updates and photos, giving me peace of mind and reassurance that all was well at home. Connie took excellent care of the house and was able to adjust her schedule to accommodate my travel needs. Love Connie for my babies. ♥️♥️”
“Copper and Levi were so happy to have Jennifer stay with them for a week. She made sure everything ran smoothly at the house and her communication was great. I highly recommend her! :-)”
“Zoe was absolutely amazing with my Golden Retriever, Bailey! She went above and beyond. She sent plenty of photo updates and shared Bailey’s adventures with me, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Not only did she treat Bailey with so much love and care, but she also took wonderful care of my home, leaving everything spotless. Zoe is truly sweet, reliable, and fantastic with animals. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“August did an incredible job taking care of Zula and my house while I was away! He sent a ton of pictures, made sure she got lots of walks, and left my house absolutely spotless. August has been the most communicative dog sitter I’ve ever had and I would 100% use him again in the future. Thanks again!!”
“Olivia was a life saver! She helped us out last minute and took great care of our pups and chickens. She kept us updated and the house looked great when we got home. Will definitely hire her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve been a huge part of my family. I lost my dog to cancer last year and am looking for opportunities to spend more time with pups. Tell me what you need and I will be there! I’ve watched 5 dogs at once before and have watched all breeds of dogs from a dachshund-yorkie to a St. bernadoodle. I work seasonally and will be providing pet care part time as I go into my off-season. I will be working part time at a bakery as well, so I am able to provide care overnight and before and after shifts. I am not allowed pets in my current housing, so I will be watching your pet in your home. I am very responsible and respect all boundaries set. I have house sit for 8 years and am very cognizant of your personal space and caring for your home as well as your pets.
“Brenna was absolutely fantastic. She met with me for an hour prior to house sitting my senior kitty. She asked good questions. I loved getting her photos and updates. I had so much peace of mind while away. She also went above and beyond to wash the sheets and tidy up the home before she left. Highly recommend and would love her to watch little Precious again!”
About: I bring a calm, grounded energy that animals seem to trust right away. Whether it’s an active dog who loves going on long walks or steady runs with me, or a quieter pet who needs gentle companionship, I focus on giving each animal the individual attention they deserve. I care deeply about their happiness, comfort, and sense of safety. Pets tend to lean into me quickly, and I make sure they feel seen, loved, and accepted exactly as they are. My goal is to help every animal have a rich, content day while you’re away. I don't work weekends which allows me plenty of time to stay with pets in their homes and keep them on their normal rhythm. I’m available for overnights, drop-ins, and extended stays given enough advanced notice, and I make sure each visit feels calm, consistent, and attended to. Whether your pet needs long walks, runs, playtime, or quiet companionship, I can be there when they need me. If i'm working on a weekday, I can feed and let dogs out or walk them in the morning before I leave and come back late afternoon/early evening for those pets that can manage themselves during the day. Since I don’t host pets in my own home, I focus on providing safe, reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment. I’m attentive to routines, feeding needs, medications, and any special instructions. I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and overall safety, and I’m respectful of your home while I’m staying there. My goal is always to create a peaceful, secure space where your pet feels at ease, seen, and truly cared for while you’re away.
“Vye was great with our dog and cat! She was very understanding of both of their special needs. Vye provided prompt updates. She also dealt with an unexpected maintenance issue in our apartment. We would love to book Vye again!”
About: Hi! I love dog sitting, and I look forward giving your dog all the care, exercise, and attention they deserve while you are away. My dog Tommy and I love making new friends and we look forward to meeting your dog soon! I have had dogs for 10 years and have spent many years dog sitting on Rover and for friends as well as fostering dogs for animal rescue organizations. I love to go for walks and spend as much time with the dogs as possible. I can adapt to any exercise requirements your dog may have. I spent many hours training my dog as a puppy so I know how important maintaining good habits are. I am happy to maintain any structure you use at home for your dog and to maintain the training you have given them. My dog Tommy is half lab half golden. He is very friendly and likes to have friends around. Tommy and I offer house sitting in your home as well. He is very polite and good in the house! Please reach out with any questions you may have. I do require a meet and greet prior to booking. I take my dog for walks in the morning and evening with a bathroom break in the middle of the day. We also incorporate playing and training and sometimes walk on local trails or go for hikes. I abide by any rules your dog follows when they are with you. My dog is free to go anywhere in the house during the day (although he usually hangs out with me!), and he stays in my room while I am out of the house.
“This was our first time having Zach help out with our cat & housesitting needs. He was available on short notice, as our previous plans had fallen through. He stopped by before we left to introduce himself and meet our sweet kitty, Major Tom. During our travel, he sent frequent updates with pictures and was sure to ask about any questions he had. When we got home, the house was left in immaculate condition and he did everything we asked. We can’t wait to have Zach help out again with our future needs!”
“Colleen did a fantastic job taking care of our boys. Both are pretty high needs in very different ways. One needs medication on the clock, twice a day. The other is young, high energy and wants constant attention. Colleen was stellar! We came home to happy pups and a clean house!!! She is mature, respectful, communicates wonderfully, and asks questions. We felt so confident and relaxed while on our trip knowing she was there. I highly recommend Colleen to care for your animals and your home.”
“Carolyn was responsible, reliable, and communicative when taking care of our 2 dogs in our house. She sent pictures and took care of everything in the house without any issues.”
About: I have had animals in my life since day one; I’ve had a variety of dogs in and out of my house for a long as I can remember. I am very versatile and have had experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, big and little dogs, calm or anxious dogs, reactive dogs and everything in between! Since school is out for the summer I am available to help out anytime! I am able to do sittings, walks and drop-ins at your convenience In a clients home I will treat their space and animal with the utmost respect and care. I intend to give their pet the love and attention they deserve and leave the home better than I found it
About: With two years of experience as an in-home pet sitter, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for two wonderful dogs, ensuring they are happy and well-looked after while their owners are away. Growing up with dogs my entire life has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. This lifelong experience, combined with the joy my own cat brings me, enhances my ability to provide attentive and loving care to all pets entrusted to me. I am ideally looking to pet sit between Monday and Friday, with very open availability during these days. This flexible schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs and ensure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. As a dedicated pet sitter, I prioritize the safety and well-being of your pets by following strict safety precautions. I ensure that all areas are pet-proofed, provide secure feeding and play environments, and adhere to any specific care instructions you provide. Regular communication with you helps me stay updated on any changes or concerns, while my attentive approach ensures that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well-cared for throughout my time with them.
About: My family always had three dogs growing up, so I'm experienced with different dog sizes and temperaments. I'm experienced in special needs and senior dog care. I love play time, hikes or walks, and giving lots of pets or letting dogs have their own space. I work a hybrid schedule in Boulder, so I'm available to stay with pets during some weekdays and let them out/give them a midday walk. I lead an active lifestyle and would be happy to talk dogs out for a walk/hike/run. I do not care for pets in my home, but I'm happy to accommodate my client's typical schedules, sleeping arrangements, and walk/feeding times in their homes.

I am so so very pleased with the service Jai provided for us. While watching our two cats, crested and fat tail geckos, my freshwater aquariums, and my garden, Jai provided multiple daily updates with photos. They were also very responsive. They left my home spotless and my kitties were very happy. Highly highly recommend!!!!
Yolanda was awesome as always! Not the first time we’ve had her. Both my dogs just absolutely love her. Not only does she take care of the dogs, she keeps the house clean as well as washing the bedding before she leaves. She is also a great cook! Left us an homemade apple pie using our apples from our tree! She had fun with that! 😁🤣❤️ You guys need a dog sitter? Book with Yolanda!

FAQs for House Sitting - Salina
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Salina on Rover is $51.34 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 5,035 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Salina. 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 Salina 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 Salina 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 Salina 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
