“Dillon was amazing with my 4 beasts. He was able to help me out last minute and went above and beyond taking the dogs on individual walks. They were very happy when I got home. His dog Bucky was so sweet and patient with my dogs, they can be a little overwhelming. I was so happy my dogs were in safe hands.”
“Shannon was awesome and my Lucy loved her taking good care of her. She followed all instructions given and I really appreciate that she did that. I would highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
“Grateful Amy was available and willing to house sit with a last minute request for my two dogs. Frequent updates with photos of the pups was much appreciated knowing they were being well cared for. I would definitely book Amy again.”
“Such a great sitter! Was very flexible with the start time and communicated throughout. Made sure our girl was taken care of, and she even got to play with Lucy. Will definitely be a repeat client! :)”
“Jasmine is wonderful and our animals love her. They aren't even excited to see us when we return home because she cares for them so well. We love having her stay with them!”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a child: my own, neighbor's, friend's, family's and friend of friend's. I also interned for the nonprofit Pets Forever, where we took care of senior citizen's beloved pets. It was such an amazing and rewarding experience. I can happily tend to all responsibilities needed for your pet's care, including, but not limited to: walking, sitting, feeding, brushing, bathing, clean up, some light training, playing, and lots of cuddles! Animals bring so much joy and they deserve the best care in return! (I started on Rover a few years ago, but due to a high demanding job, I ended up not being able to do as much as I wanted. I'm hoping to have a lot more opportunities this time around to meet many adorable animal friends!) My schedule may be changing due to work, but I will always make sure to prioritize your fur baby! I am available any day of the week, though the timing may vary due to my work schedule. Just let me know the timetable you are looking for and we can workout the best schedule for you and your pet(s)! I will be extremely respectful of your home and of the environment you prefer for your animals! Whether you need me to crate them at certain times, give them free reign, or keep a close watch on them -- let me know what works best for you and your furry friends, and I will make sure it's done! For their safety and the safety of your home.
“Becca did a great job with our two dogs and was very patient with our rescue dog that has some quirks. She also was very responsive to messages and sent pictures everyday. We would definitely use her again!”
“We could not be happier with Jessica. She was outstanding. It was obvious our puppies loved her so much. She also went above and beyond checking to see if she needed to water anything and also folded some laundry I had sitting out which we certainly did not expect. We will definitely use her again and again. We know our dogs were well taken care of by how happy they were when we got home.”
About: I have always had dogs in my life. I have ecpericance watching all different kinds of pups, I've worked with different ages, sizes, breeds, abilities, and needs. I have had practice admistering medication at feeding times, as well as watching up to 4 medium dogs at a time. I am a flexable college student that attends CSU, each of my days look a little different, although I can gaurentee the availibility to check up on your dog at least once every 3.5-4 hours! I can watch them for long or short periods of time, whatever works for you and the puppy! I care for my clients pets as I would care for my own. I work around the schedule that they are used to, aswell as keep up with their physical needs. I care for pets in a loving manner and with as much attention as possible
“Allison stayed with my dogs for a few days and showed them so much love and attention. She kept me informed with updates while I was away, which meant a lot to me. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals, and my dogs seemed very comfortable with her.”
“We cannot recommend Courtney highly enough; she was amazing with our dog, Salty. Our dog is has special needs and some behavioral challenges. Courtney's extensive experience with dogs and as a vet. tech. served her well to accommodate his needs. It was immediately obvious that she really loves dogs and she quickly bonded with Salty and he was at ease in her company. Courtney was fantastic communicator before and during her stay with Salty. She sent adorable pictures and kept us up to date on how they were doing together. She was extremely responsible and respectful of our home. We will certainly call on Courtney again when we need dog sitting help. Thanks, Courtney!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Severance is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $58 per night. On Rover, 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.

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 Severance 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 Severance 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 Severance 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
