“Ella made sure our kitties got plenty of love while we were away! She was able to administer oral medication appropriately. She tidied up after herself- you couldn’t even tell anyone had been here!”

“Anna was amazing with our dachshund and our cat. Her comnunication was consistent and her professionalism was impeccable. Our furry babies were relaxed and happy when we came home, so we know they were loved and spoiled while we were gone. We highly recommend Anna as a sitter!”

About: I love animals and have helped taken care of them for years. Currently have a cat and have taken care of dogs too in the past. I work full time from monday to friday from 1 pm - 9 pm, this leaves the mornings open and since I am off on weekends, that makes them completely free. I come in and make sure food and water are filled as well as making sure the litterbox is scooped out. Then I give the cat some much needed love. For dogs, I take them out so they can use the bathroom, spend time with them and make sure they have water and eat their meals.

About: I grew up with animals! I have had a dog in my home since I was born and I believe that they are truly a part of the family. I work full time, so I am happy to help with your furry friend for overnights and weekends! I can do afternoon check ins on my break depending on location. I do not currently have any pets, so I am able to give all my attention to yours :) I am a runner and stay active - so I can take hyperactive dogs for a run or to the park for some exercise!

About: Hey there! My name is Sam and I just moved to Arkansas from Texas! A little about me, I am a mental health therapist and primarily see clients online at this point in my career! I have been an animal lover my entire life. There hasn't been a time in my life where I haven't had an animal living with me (except my freshman year in college, but it was probably better that way!) I started by dog/cat sitting for family and friends back in Texas and that has grown into a side business that I want to bring to Arkansas. I’ve watched all kinds of pets: dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragon, ferrets, bunnies, horses, donkeys, goats, and more! I now only have one cat, Millie, who loves me and pretty much no one else. I miss having pups in my life and don't know a whole lot of people in Arkansas yet so I figured this would be a great way to connect and love on some animals! I hope to hear from you soon! My schedule is mostly consistent from week to week but I work odd hours and times. I work from home so I would be available all day! If I’m watching your pup at my home, I have an entirely enclosed fence so they would get plenty of outdoor/run time. Your pup would have to get along with cats, however mine will typically stay away if she knows someone or something else is in the house!

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life, and I’m definitely the person who will ignore the humans in the room and go straight for the dog. I’m responsible, attentive and very comfortable stepping into a pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, medications, sticking to their feeding schedule or just providing some excellent couch companionship. Every pet has their own personality, quirks and very specific opinions about how things should be done, and I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m especially good with dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance when their people are away. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated so you know everything is going well and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention while you’re gone. Fair warning: I’ll probably give them a ridiculous nickname by day two. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can work around your pet’s routine instead of expecting them to work around mine. Walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime and bedtime can all stay as close to normal as possible. I’m also happy to spend plenty of time at the house, so your pet won’t just get a quick hello, a bowl of food and a disappearing act. If they’re used to having someone around, they’ll have me around. When I’m staying in your home, my goal is pretty simple: keep your pet happy, safe and comfortable while you’re gone. I’ll follow your instructions, pay attention to the little things and treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat mine. And you won’t have to wonder what’s going on. I’m happy to send pictures and updates along the way. I know you’re trusting me with your pet and your home, and I take both seriously. Even if your dog and I are having very unserious conversations while you’re gone.

About: I am always the first to call when someone I know needs pet care! I have also worked in a veterinary hospital with dogs and cats. As of now, I have a very open schedule. I am willing to care overnight or just drop by for a quick walk. I am flexible! I live in a home with a fenced in backyard. I have one dog and cat of my own, and my dog is crate-trained. Both get along with all animals great! My dog is a border collie mix, and is not aggressive at all. My house is also is 2 minute walk to a park with a field and walking track!

“Beth was fantastic! She took such good care of our Skyy, who is a senior dog with some health issues. She stayed in our home and gave Skyy all the love and attention she needed - maybe even more. It was great having someone with such a love of animals and who is very trustworthy keep watch over our home and our little girl. I can’t say enough good things about Beth. We’ll be using her again, for sure.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and have almost always lived in a home with three or more at a time, so caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and needs is second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs as well as pets belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, seniors, larger breeds, feeding schedules, walks, medications, basic grooming, and maintaining the routines dogs are used to at home. Having a multi-dog household has also taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog individually—reading their body language, managing introductions, giving them space when needed, and making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When your dog stays with me, I want them to feel like they’re staying in a home, not a boarding facility. I’m happy to follow their normal routine and provide plenty of photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re being well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine since I have dogs of my own. I’m currently able to offer a flexible schedule throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m home frequently, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’m also happy to work around your dog’s normal feeding, exercise, and sleep schedule. I have a dog-friendly home with a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to play, relax, and feel comfortable. Since I have dogs of my own, I take introductions seriously and pay close attention to each dog’s personality and body language. Dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I’m happy to follow any routines or boundaries you use at home. My priority is making sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of individual attention.

About: I also love dogs!! I’ve pet sat on multiple occasions for a reasonable price, because I genuinely just enjoy spending time with new puppies and keeping them company and making sure they’re taken care of. I love taking them on walks, playing fetch with them, and sitting with them I’m available on nights, mornings, and sometimes during the weekend as well! I just accepted a teaching position from 11am-6pm, and I have time to work around my schedule in order to make sure your pet’s taken care of My kitty, Mama, is an indoor kitty and she uses a litter robot because it helps keep her litter box clean all the time. I have an automatic water dispenser for her and I fill her food daily. I keep all of her things in my room because she’s in there most of the time

About: I’ve had 2 dogs for all of my life until very recently! I’ve cared for a senior dog, a service dog, and an active german shepherd / labrador mix who can walk for hours!!! I am genuinely always looking to hang out and care for other’s dogs as I know how much MY dogs love attention, love, and care :) My apartment is a one bedroom apartment but I have boarded other dogs there before, my home is their home!!! As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)

FAQs for House Sitting - Sonora

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Sonora is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $44 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.

As of November 2026, there are 531 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sonora. 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 Sonora 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 Sonora 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 Sonora 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sonora. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
