“Madison was great. She took excellent care of my 19 year old cat who also needed thyroid medication twice daily. She was quick to understand what was needed and left the house looking clean and tidy. Sent the cutest photos too! I will definitely ask for her help with my cat again.”
“Phil did a great job. He was able to help us out last minute and was more than accommodating. Our Rottweiler can be a bit intimidating, but he handled her like a pro. He stayed at our house and watched our dogs while we were away,”
“Sophia was wonderful! She took great care of our fur babies and house. I appreciated her communication and updates , with photos. I would definitely have Sophia house sit again.”
“Brook was great- easy to communicate, reliable, and she left the house super clean! My male dog can be a bit difficult but he loved her and from pictures she sent, I could tell how relaxed and happy my dogs were.”
“It was a pleasure meeting Karolina and having her watch our 2-dogs for the July 4th Holiday. She was great with spending LOTS of time at our house, walking Stewie & Odie a couple times a day and communicating with us throughout the weekend. We will definitely have her watch our dogs in the future!”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, dogs that have complicated medical needs to dogs that are lax and can do everything on their own. I’ve always grown up with cats as well as a plethora of other animals including fish, lizards, birds, and frogs. I’ve housesat for multiple people over the years and have received much positive feedback! I’m working evening at a restaurant from 3pm to 8pm, so it doesn’t cause much shift in my capability to care for your furry friends! I am more than happy to stay at your place in caring for your pets or if easier/preferred, I can stop by intermittently throughout the day to give your pet the care it needs.
“Skyler is top notch. Right from the start, communication was great. Unfortunately my dog decided to be a big jack@$$. He acted up right as I was packing to leave but petting on my bed. He ended up nipping Skylar and being a grumpface, making her job more difficult. She handled it like a pro and even given the option to finish the stay, with minor adjustments she gladly continued. I very much appreciated her commitment. 5 stars from me!”
“Angela came right on time and was in constant communication with me. She also went above and beyond and brought in some packages for us. We’ll definitely be using her again :)”
“Katarina was an amazing sitter for Zuko. She was incredibly accommodating, gave me continuous updates on Zuko, and went above and beyond with her care. Zuko ended up having some tummy issues and Katarina immediately updated me on the problem and even picked up his prescription from the vet on my behalf. She took great care of the home and was always available to help where she could while I was away. I would 100% book her services again and I am incredibly grateful for her care. Thank you so much Katarina!”
“We won the lottery when we found Taylor! That cannot be overstated! Her daily communication was clear and frequent which we truly appreciated and the pictures and videos gave us peace of mind. Which is crucial when you’re traveling and leaving your home and pets in the care of others. We have every intention to hire Taylor in any future trips without hesitation and we did note all the little extras that were very appreciated. We have 4 cats 3 who were a bonded group and had just recently joined our solo ( and territorial) cat Pixie. Taylor handled them beautifully and upon our return we noted they were more social and affectionate. Something we were hoping to work on when we returned. Thank you Taylor for your attention to detail and loving on our fur family! Not only are you beyond capable but you are also a wonderful person. Warmly, Bobbie and Robb”
“Charlie was great! He’s a repeat. We have two dogs that are hard to deal with because of their past but Charlie managed to win them over and even get one of them for a walk. I would strongly recommend him!”
“Sammari was amazing! She helped my very skittish dog feel comfortable. She sent regular updates and was very responsive. I would definitely have her again. She really worked her magic.”
“Maddie is amazing! Super thoughtful and communicative. She took awesome care of my dog and my home, and she sent plenty of updates and photos.”
“Kami stayed with our dog, Chase, for a few days while my wife and I flew across the country for a wedding. Before the stay, she met us for a meet and greet with Chase and was”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sudden Valley
We just had Philip watch our three dogs for the second time and he was wonderful. He provided pictures and updates, which I love to get. When we returned, he had watered all of my outdoor gardens and the dogs were happy and relaxed. Yay! Definitely would ask Philip to take care of our pups again.
We had a great experience working with Jordis. She was great with the dogs (two St Bernards and one who needs multiple eye drops daily), a good communicator, and was respectful of our home. She accommodated a fairly last minute request for care around the 4th of July and was flexible at we delayed our departure bc of an issue with our home. We'd be happy to work with Jordis again.
Matt did an excellent job of caring for our dog and home while we were away for a week. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog and a clean home! We were very comforted to receive Matt's daily updates detailing Stella's activities and care accompanied by photos/video. We would LOVE to have Matt dog/housesit again for us and we highly recommend him!
Brooke is the first Rover we have used since moving to sudden valley and we will definitely rebook. We got timely updates, cute photos and best of all peace of mind knowing our pups were in excellent hands! We were gone for a week and came home to happy dogs and I swear the house was cleaner than we left it including stripping and washing the bedding. Brooke went above and beyond, truly - 10/10 would recommend!
Ariel did an amazing job watching my high energy pup! She took her out on several adventures and was an excellent commucator. I really appreciated all the pup pupdates! She also left the place cleaner than it had been :) I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for some pet sitting and would/likely will book her again. It's always great returning to a happy and tired pup :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Sudden Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sudden Valley on Rover is $46.62 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 710 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sudden Valley. 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 Sudden Valley 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 Sudden Valley 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 Sudden Valley 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.
