This is the 2nd time we used Daniel to watch Bear and all we can say is Daniel is the perfect pet/house sitter. Bear is very well adjusted when we come home which we could not say about another place we used before. Bear seems to be completely content having Daniel watch him and we could not be happier!

I cannot say enough good things about Victory! She took amazing care of our mini Schnauzer, Ollie, last weekend, and I’m so grateful for her help. From the moment Victory arrived she made sure to follow Ollie's normal routine, which allowed him to get acclimated to her quickly. Victory's time with Ollie was seamless and non-disruptive for him, which I really appreciated. Not only did she give Ollie the best care, but she also took fantastic care of our house. When she left, everything was tidy and spotless. Victory went above and beyond by sending me daily updates and pictures, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals and goes the extra mile to ensure they’re happy and comfortable. I would highly recommend Victory to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She is thoughtful, responsible, and incredibly reliable! Thank you, Victory, for taking such wonderful care of Ollie and our home! Will definitely have Victory watch Ollie and our home again!

Shanae was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she was attentive, caring, and communicative. I could tell she genuinely cared for my dog through the photos and videos she sent, and she stayed on top of all his needs throughout my trip. She was prompt, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. I look forward to booking her again in the future!

Annie took such great care of my lab, Birdie! I was on vacation for a week and she was so flexible with scheduling around the dog’s routine which was great since Birdie is only a year old. The dog was walked everyday and lived her life as if I were here myself. Annie was super communicative with me the entire time and sent pictures daily! Annie will definitely be our go-to pet/house sitter!

Shawnee did an excellent job house sitting & watching our girl Missy during our vacation. This was our first time using Rover, so we weren’t sure of what to expect. But, we were absolutely thrilled knowing that Missy was well taken care of & loved while we were away. She went above & beyond to help care for Missy, and she also took excellent care of the house too! 100% would recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for McKenna McKenna was absolutely amazing and a true lifesaver for us. We reached out to her last minute after an unexpected situation with another sitter, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the moment she arrived, we felt at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands. Both of our pups have medical needs, and McKenna handled their care with professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine kindness. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, followed their medication schedule perfectly, and made sure they were comfortable, safe, and loved. Her reliability, compassion, and willingness to help us on such short notice meant the world to us. We could not be more grateful and would highly recommend McKenna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!

Seriously, THE BEST sitter that we’ve ever had! So sweet to our dogs as if they were her own! The pictures she sent were precious and well shot! Her little letters to us were creative and we can’t hush about her enough! She is a sitter above sitters and will be using her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Stanley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Stanley on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,024 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stanley. 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 Stanley 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 Stanley 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 Stanley 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 with handling special pet needs in Stanley. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
