“Jenni was fantastic! She stayed at our house with Winston and took such great care of him. Winston bonded with her right away, which made us feel so comfortable. She kept us updated with wonderful messages, pictures, and videos, giving us so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear Winston was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Jenni and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Our son and his dog have never been separated from each other, and they live in a house of several college friends. We were concerned when we needed to go out of state and everyone was going to be away from the house that a kennel may not be the right fit for him. We found Tim and he was a great match for Spuds and us as we needed him to be in a home with someone. They went on walks, played all day. He even let him sleep with him which was a must and made his treat of scrambled eggs! Tim sent is regular updates of activities and pictures. We were able to enjoy trip completely knowing he was safe, secure and loved. We will call Tim anytime we need someone to care for Spuds and encourage you to leave your special dog with him also.

About: An almost-lifetime of dog care, including senior and disabled pets. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and ages in various combinations. Most of my own pets have been rescues, so I have extensive experience with dogs with "quirks" and those that require specialized care, schedules, and medications. My pup always walks 3-4 times a day, for at least 30 minutes each time. I work during the day, but I come home for lunch every day for a midday potty break. For him, it's a great balance between rest and activity. I'd be happy to take your pup(s) along with us or adjust as needed! I'm often home on weekends and like to take my pets along on short errands for extra quality time. My dog Rocky is a spry senior who loves other dogs. He does roam freely at home, but we always walk with a harness and leash. He's lived with medium and large dogs with different dispositions, so he warms up quickly. I can work with pets in crates and have plenty of space to separate food, toys, etc. My doors are always closed, and my home is partially child-proofed, so there's no need to worry about your pup(s) getting into things they shouldn't. I live across the street from a vet in case of emergencies.
About: I've owned and cared for pets for majority of my life. No two pets are alike but every pet is wonderful and I'm here to help you take care of your beloved fur baby. I have a full time job, but can help with your pets before 8:30am and after 5:30pm. I am available for boarding on Friday evening and the weekends. I have a partially fenced back yard where your dog can play in under supervision and my neighborhood is great for going on a walk. I am able to have a crate set up if needed.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Salina is $30

Jennifer did a great job! She stayed at my place for five days taking care of my dog Momo. Jennifer was very communicative and texted me several times throughout the day with pictures of how Momo was doing. Anytime I texted her she always responded in a timely manner, and she reached out anytime she had questions (about feeding schedule or treats, etc). I am very happy with her service and plan to book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Salina on Rover is $42.18 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 18 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
