“We had a wonderful experience with Dorothy! She was communicative, punctual, attentive, and so loving with Bumblebee. It gave us peace of mind knowing Bumblebee was in such caring hands. We really appreciated the great care she provided and would absolutely hire her again. Highly recommend!”
“Ronni is the best!! She took care of not only our two cats but also our anxious pup and he loved her! He warmed up super quick and was very comfortable. Ronni is great and we will continue to ask her back whenever we are planning a trip!”
“Samantha has been an exceptional dog sitter for our 13-year-old, blind fur baby, Buster. It's the second time she's looked after him, and her ability to handle his unique needs is truly amazing. Samantha not only follows instructions meticulously but also keeps us consistently informed during our trips. We wholeheartedly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out for her services again. Buster is in great hands with Samantha!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our pups, Ragnar and Rollo, received over the weekend! From the moment we met, it was clear they were in great hands. Daily updates and photos gave us total peace of mind, and it was obvious the boys were relaxed, happy, and well loved. Everything was handled with care—feeding, walks, playtime, and even a little extra attention to their quirks. We came home to two very content dogs and a spotless house. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter!”
About: I have been actively taking care of pets my whole life. I love animals and treat them like my own children. I have a 10 year old daughter who is on her way to become a vet and wife who loves pets just as much! I work from home and can accommodate your schedule at anytime needed. I would be happy to make sure that your pet has the best experience. I have a fully fenced yard on a quiet street. I allow pets to use any furniture they would like to make themselves a home
About: My two main goals when dogsitting are to make sure your pet feels loved and your house ends up cleaner than when I entered it. I’m currently a full time college student with classes 4 days a week, but will prioritize spending time with your pet when I’m not at school. I can give them all the attention they need and fit the rest of my schedule around them! In my clients home, I will make sure your pet feels loved and gets attention, time outside, and gets all the food he or she needs.
“We have never had anyone stay at our house with our animals before, so the idea of leaving them with a complete stranger was very daunting. Sydney was absolutely wonderful with our two big, rambunctious dogs (2 year old huskies) and four cats. Our house was exactly as we left it and she sent lots of updates so we could see everyone’s sweet faces and how much fun they were having without us! She was terrific about updating us when she got here and letting us know how everything was going. She was always very responsive through the whole process, and it was very clear our animals were all comfortable and enjoying their normal routine with her. We will absolutely have Sydney back, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Kayla is wonderful! She is a great communicator and asks appropriate questions. She did great caring for our two senior dogs. We are looking forward to our next trip so Kayla can come again!”
“Bryce did a great job w/ our 2 boxers. They're crazy, needy and a little too much for some people, but they didn't seem to bother him at all. We really appreciate Bryce staying at our house since our dogs can have seperation anxiety and tear things up. We also received photos daily which helped our anxiety as well. We will be using Bryce in the future! Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals for about 13 years. I have taken care of mostly big dogs and cats but I’ve also taken care of turtles and fish I am currently working part-time however I have weekends off and I am available some days of the week so I am available almost every weekend to watch your animals! I enjoys taking animals for walk and cuddling with them in general. I love to see the playful side of animals and will play with them to their hearts content.
“Sabrina is absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend her services. My animals loved having her stay at the house, and she gave them so much attention, care, and love. They looked very content and relaxed in all the pics. Thank you for everything, Sabrina. The pups and Archie can't wait to see you again very soon!”
“Watched our pups for an extended weekend and took great care of them! One of our dogs has high anxiety and doesn’t get along with everyone, but she was able to feed him and give him his meds. Thank you!”
“Julianna was fantastic. She was great with both my dogs and cats, getting to know each of them and their unique personalities to ensure they were all taken care of in the best way. Julianne also took great care of our home and really pulled through when our well system broke by communicating with us and being available for the repair man to come to the house. We also had visits from the local bear and Julianne was great at cleaning up the mess he made and keeping the pets safe. We will definitely be using her again.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Kara! She went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She provided regular updates and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was also wonderful about administering medications and making sure all of our dog’s needs were met. It was clear how much care and attention she put into everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Rachel was fantastic with our pup! We were looking for someone to take great care of our 9 month old lab mix, Spinach. She is a bit shy, and can be a little stubborn, but Rachel had a great way of working with her, and we knew Spinach would be in good hands. Communication was spot on, quick responses to every inquiry, and lots of pics while we were away. We asked that she stay the night with Spinach while we were gone, and to our delight our place was probably cleaner than when we left. I'd definitely recommend Rachel; in fact, we booked her again for this weekend! ”
“We hired this pet sitter for a 3-week vacation and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive to our pets’ needs the entire time and clearly treated them with genuine care and affection. She walked the dogs every single day without fail, and we loved receiving regular pictures and videos so we could see how they were doing while we were away. She also took excellent care of our house. When we returned, everything was clean, tidy, and just as we left it. It was such a relief knowing both our pets and our home were in such capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy pet sitter.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Bella caring for our senior dog while we were away for 10 days. She was dependable, caring, and attentive to our girl’s routine and special needs, and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us such peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a clean and orderly house, which we really appreciated! We are so grateful to Bella for taking such good care of our girl and our home. We would absolutely trust her with our senior dog again and highly recommend her!”
About: Hi, I'm Carissa! I've owned and cared for cats, birds, snakes, horses, guinea pigs, and other small animals, plus I have experience caring for and training dogs. Whatever pet you have, I'm comfortable and confident meeting their unique needs. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks. As a certified personal trainer with an active lifestyle, your dog will get real exercise and engagement not just a quick potty break. Caring for animals genuinely brings me joy, and when you book with me, your pet gets treated like family. I am currently working full time. 6a-3p. Tuesday-Saturday. I am available anytime of the day on Sundays and Mondays for your pet care needs. Since all of my services take place in the client's home, my top priority is making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. For dog walking, I follow any feeding, exercise, and leash routines the owner has established, and always keep dogs secure and supervised. For drop-in visits and pet sitting, I stick to the pet's normal schedule as closely as possible, feeding times, medications, play, and any specific preferences the owner shares. With house sitting, I'm there in the mornings/after work so dogs and cats never feel alone or anxious, and I treat the home with the same care I'd give my own. I always keep owners updated with photos and check-ins, and I reach out right away if anything comes up.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Summit Village is $64 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $83 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 Summit Village 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 Summit Village 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 Summit Village 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
