“Kelly was incredible with my anxious dog, Luna! She sent regular updates with photos and took great care of my home while I was away. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“James was just what we needed for two night in home pet sitting for our two dogs. He gave great care for the dogs and was very flexible with scheduling. We will request him again next time.”
“We had an excellent house sitting experience with Brandon! He responds quickly to our texts and listens well when describing our young pups needs. He has a professional attitude and has a pleasant personality. Our six and seven month old pups responded great when they first met him and Brandon managed them very well at the greeting. Brandon sent half a dozen photos along with a description of each day. Brandon spent one night and two days with our pups - when we returned, the house and the pups were well kept after! We highly recommend Brandon!”
“Jeremy was beyond helpful. I was out in a little bit of a pinch when my previous house sitter canceled the day before our trip. In the chaos of that Jeremy helped calmed my worries. He was easy to talk to, showed up on time and was very communicative about my dog through out the stay. I cannot recommend Jeremey enough for helping watching my dog on such short notice and with such great care!”
About: I've been a dog lover ever since I was a kid and there's no signs of it letting up. We have our own dog, watch our friend's pups frequently, and help out our neighbors when they need a little assistance. I currently have a dog so I've got a strong daily routine with her already. When we watch other dogs, they get added to the mix. We typically go out 3-4 times a day with one of those being a longer walk/hike/adventure. I work from home so am always at home with the pups and able to watch over them. Given my flexible work schedule, I am also available to take them out for walks or feedings whenever needed.
“Emma was absolutely amazing with Lana. From the start, she sent regular updates and photos, and it was clear Lana was having the best time. She stayed incredibly active with her, taking her to all her favorite spots and exploring plenty of new ones too. Lana also got along so well with Emma’s dog, Obi, which made the experience even better. You could tell she was happy and truly cared for the entire time. This has honestly been Lana’s best sitting experience so far!”
“Candace was, as always, fabulous! Our pup was (and always is) super stoked to see Candace which makes us feel happy we are all in good hands. She kept us updated, took the pup on solid walks, and the house was in great shape. She even went above and beyond by stripping the bed etc.! Not expected but very thoughtful. This was our third booking with her and we look forward to working with her again.”
“Madison was sweet, accommodating and communicated very thoroughly. I loved getting plenty of pictures and updates about my pups! My dogs are larger and finicky eaters so it was nice to hear they ate all their meals while I was gone! Thank you !”
About: I have had dogs for a total of 23 years. I have experience with puppies and have trained my own dogs. I have the ability to give your dog the attention it wants and the exercise it needs. I spend a lot of time running the mountain trails and I am also in proximity to many other city parks, as well as dog parks. I will quickly befriend your dog to establish a comfortable, lasting relationship, which will help keep your dog healthier and happier. I am available for walks, runs, playing fetch, drop-ins, feedings and overnight stays. I know how deeply attached you are to your dog. Your pet will receive the same care I give mine, which should give you peace of mind. Pet care is my priority! For a fun and safe place for your pets while you're away, my home-based pet boarding features a large fenced-in yard for play, an ample indoor area for relaxation, and separate play areas both indoors and outdoors if needed. I welcome dogs of all types, sizes, ages, and consider special requests.

“Prepare for your pet to be S-P-O-I-L-E-D! I knew she was going to be a wonderful caregiver to our precious dog, but no, we were blown away by her level of care that she provided - even going so far to put on college football for our dog to watch while she was away! Also, Carol stayed at our house and upon returning, we didn't even see any signs that she had ever even been there. She is a gem!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and truly love having them around! As a college student, I’m looking to bring more dog time back into my life. I have hands-on experience fostering through Best Friends and the Humane Society, so I’m comfortable with all personalities, ages, and energy levels. I’m very active and happy to care for your pup in whatever way suits them best. Whether thats taking them out to the park, going on hikes, or simply just giving them someone to hang out with while you're away :) My schedule is flexible and I have multiple opportunities to come home and care for your pet throughout the day. Let me know in advance any specific needs they have so I can adjust my routine! I live in a quiet neighborhood while a fully fenced yard for your dog to enjoy! There is also a nice park a walk from my house where your dog could get some playtime in with the local dogs or simply sniff around on our daily leashed walks.
About: I am comfortable taking care of all kinds of pets besides cats and dogs including reptiles, snakes, birds and even insects. I grew up with many different kinds of pets in the home so I am adaptable to whatever needs your pet might have. I work as a substitute teacher and I schedule my work a few days to a week in advance so I may be less available on any given week if you don’t communicate with me a week in advance. When sitting in the client’s home I’ll set alarms to make sure that I feed and walk the dog at the required times, I prefer to walk dogs on leash so please let me know where those are before I come to sit (I’ll also ask you if not).
“Couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter! Rachel was awesome, providing daily pictures & check-in’s of Mookie, giving him plenty of walks and bathroom breaks. She left my apartment very clean as well, making my return home so easy! Definitely recommend if you’re in need of a sitter, I’ll be booking with her again in the future for sure.”
“I’m so glad we ended up booking with Sandra! This was the first time my husband and I were both gone on a trip for a week since getting our corgi, and I was nervous about leaving the dog and our two cats with a stranger in the house. Sandra set us at ease from the first meet and greet with a warm and pleasant demeanor! She got along great with our dog and two kitties. She sent plenty of pictures during her stay and provided updates on how each of our pets were doing. She was respectful of our property, showed up promptly for the start of the booking as we were leaving for the airport, and stayed until we returned home. I feel great about leaving our fur babies in her hands again, and we will definitely contact her for future pet sitting needs!”
“Took great care of the animals and house. Sent daily updates and it was great to see the animals get more used to him as the week went on. Very responsive to texts and questions, would definitely use again”
“Christine was a fantastic sitter for us! We appreciated her great communication, all the attention she gave our pup, and how well she took care of our place. We will be sure to check if she is available next time we are out of town 😄”
“Jai was great in pet sitting our bichon frise (Mochi)! Mochi has separation anxiety and Jai stayed with him throughout the whole night. He also made sure to take him out to potty and play. We were really appreciative of all the pictures he sent us throughout the night, almost every other hour. It seemed like every time I was thinking if Mochi was a okay, Jai would read my mind and give me an update with a few pictures! Would definitely book again.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Silver Summit is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $80 per night.

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 Silver Summit 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 Silver Summit 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 Silver Summit 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.
