“Stephanie did a fabulous job watching our older dog and taking care of our home while we were gone. She was very communicative, responsive, and helpful. We felt very comfortable with her at our home and will definitely hire her again. Thanks, Stephanie!”
“Eden was absolutely wonderful! She did a great job with my two boys, sent lots of pictures, and stayed in constant communication about what was going on!! Will absolutely be using her services again.”
“We are so happy to have found Yvette for our pups. Both of our dogs received excellent care and attention. I admire Yvette’s ability to adapt to our pets and her attention to detail in our home!”
“Sarah was awesome! This was our first time trying out the "house sitting" option on here, and we felt like our fur babies loved meeting a new friend! We needed to go out of town and unfortunately the family friend who was going to look after the dogs, needed to cancel, so I reached out to a couple sitters on here and Sarah got right back to us - we scheduled a meet and greet and confirmed! We felt very comfortable with her staying at our place and watching our three dogs. She updated and sent photos, which was wonderful. When we got home, they seemed happy which is most important. Definitely will request house sitting again from her!”
“Rebooked Dakota and was on a week long trip this time. Good updates, love the pics and the videos, and he notified me that my dog may have an allergy that I didn't even notice!”
About: I've had pets my entire life of all types including dogs, cats, and other small animals! I had a cat for 17 years who lived the most luxurious and spoiled life a cat could want, and currently have a little voidling boy with plans to eventually adopt more! I regularly walk and groom dogs at the shelter, I volunteer at the Yakima Humane society and plan to start vet tech school next fall. I work from home as a freelance editor so I can work on my laptop anywhere. I have the ability to work around your busy schedule with ease. During the fall quarter I will be taking a single morning class so I will continue to be available at almost any time you need! I will always heed to the knowledge and advice you have about your own pets needs and combine it with my own expereince as a lifetime pet owner and volunteer. Be it an energetic lovebug that needs extra attention or a senior pet that has special needs, I am capable and happy to care for your pet as if they were my own.
“Love having Mayra take care of my fur babies. I don’t have to worry while I’m gone. I know they are being well taken care of. I also enjoy the pics of my babies that she sends while I’m gone. 💕”
“Arizonia is AMAZING!!! She took care of our 2 frenchies for a couple days and it was as smooth as can be. Not only were the boys happy when we got back but our house was immaculate and she baked us some treats ? We’ll for sure have her again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for my friends and family since I was 12. I’ve done everything from walks to weekend sleepovers. I have experience with all types and ages of dogs. I also have experience administering medications and accommodating around injuries and allergies (pills, eyedrops, creams, and cones) I currently attend Perry Technical institute so I have class Monday-Thursday 7:30am-4:00pm. I am available anytime that I’m not in class. Im very flexible so feel free to reach out whenever, I take same day requests. You and your fur baby’s comfortability are my top priority. I am open to visits before services to confirm that your dog and I will get along. I am more than willing to send updates as frequently as you’d like so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I also double-check that everything is locked after services to ensure your dogs safety.
“Gunnar was super responsive to specific pet care requests and willing to accommodate our girls. He sent us updates and continued to work on training that we were working on so our puppy wouldn’t regress too much. Will definitely be using Gunnar in the future.”
“William and Jessica were very loving and caring towards both my elderly dog and youthful/energetic pup. They were communicative and easily accessible. The pair left my home in good condition and were obviously respectful. At the end of the visit, they inquired if I had any feedback on any issues. I did not. My dogs were healthy and happy upon my return. I will hire William and Jessica again.”
“Emma was easy-going and handled taking care of our two energetic pups and 1 cat very well. She communicated any issues right away and asked us questions when she was unsure of something. We would recommend Emma for short or long term care of your fur babies!”
“10/10 fabulous experience! Carol was extremely communicative, asked to book a meet & greet despite my last minute booking, was super responsible with our home & left it in great shape, and was just a really lovely person. I cannot overemphasize how well she reads dogs - for instance, my barky pom was being his usual guard dog self, and she mentioned she was going to stop doing eye contact with him so he would have a chance to settle. And he settled very quickly! She's so experienced with dogs, and it was a huge bonus that I found out that she has fostered dogs in the past. You have to have a lot of empathy, hope, flexibility and patience to be an animal foster parent, and I love that she came to us with all that and more. I've lost track of all the cool things she did - she tended to our plants, she took my dogs on jogs very often, improved my recipes for the dog's treats and food according to health needs.... the list goes on and on. All with Carol being very chill and sweet and super easy to work with. I'd have her back in a heartbeat. All my dogs LOVED her, from the puppyish 2 year old to the old lady 13 year old in our pack. 5 stars, 10/10, easy stress-free experience!”
About: I've had some experience with small family dogs but have many years of experience with cats. I can feed, walk, give potty breaks, clean up after, and play with your pets. I am working full time as a caregiver and will be available after 7pm on the weekdays and all day on most weekends. We can discuss care and scheduling accordingly.

About: Hello! My name is ash, I grew up in a loving animal house! As my mom would say I am an animal loving person. I love all different sizes or shapes such as rodents, reptiles, dogs, cats and birds! I have been loving, caring and gentle with animals since I was a little girl. My first ever pet was a puppy, we rescued him from an animal shelter. I have trained, fed and walked him. All of the pets that I have had were guinea pigs, hamsters, hermit crabs, lizards, horses, dogs and cats. So you can say I am an animal lover to the bone. I also have house sit, dog walking and trained a variety of animals for my neighborhood, family members and friend. I currently have a pit/lab mix. I am grateful to be able to give the love and care needed to your fur babies! I am currently a new business owner! So I do still have days off during the week and weekends. Typically I work in the mornings to late lunch. If have questions or anything, just ask away! I will care for your pets at your home. I can also do dog walks and do check ups! I will be communicating to the owners about everything the pet and I have done. From the time I get there and leave.
“Miah was so great! She did a wonderful job taking care of our two crazy dogs. She does a wonderful job communicating and is very easy to get in contact with. We came home to two happy dogs. We will for sure use Miah’s services in the future!”
About: We have owned fur babies for the last 25 years, from dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, goats, as well as pet hamsters and rats. We've had the privilege of taking care of our cats and dogs almost 25 years. We have had them from puppyhood and kittenhood to their geriatric years (two dogs to age 16!). Currently we have three yellow labs; two that we adopted from my parents when they passed, they are, 4,4, and 9 years old. We have always had our dogs trained with the basic obedience commands and we only use encouraging words and actions to help them learn. Many of our animals were rescue pups. We also have dog friendly indoor/outdoor cats. I work part time at home as well as on call work when I am available. I am an early riser and can work as early as 5:30am and as late as 8pm. We offer in home care, to include drop off, doggy day care and pet sitting for dogs and cats. I would also be open to short term pet care in a clients home and I am especially interested in dog walking as well as field trips trail or park walking, and dog parks for dogs that enjoy it. I am also able to provide transportation to vet appointments.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Summitview is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Summitview
I am so impressed by Lyn. They were on time, cheerful, listened to the care instructions intently, and greeted Sophie with joy and kindness. Sophie is normally nervous for me to leave her, but this time she didn't bat an eye. She knew she was in good hands. Lyn sent pictures and responded quickly to check ins. When we arrived home I could tell that Sophie really enjoyed her time with Lyn. I can't recommend them enough to care for your pet!

FAQs for House Sitting - Summitview
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Summitview on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 154 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Summitview. 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 Summitview 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 Summitview 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 Summitview 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 Summitview. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% 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.
