“Shauna really connected with my animals. The fastest trust building I have experienced with a pet sitter. She has a lot of animal knowledge which was helpful. I for sure will be requesting her services again for all my upcoming trips. Please be confident in selecting her for your own personal needs. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Dalene watched my 5 month old golden retriever, Walter, for a two day period and she was great. She kept my lad active and was in constant contact while I was away. Walter was very content and happy when I came home, which is a sign he had the best companionship with Dalene. I cannot recommend her enough.”
“Emily was great! She treated my Tj like her own. I felt very comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. Emily's communication was great and she sent photos of my dog regularly.”
“Kaitlyn was awesome. Our dogs and cat are happy and well taken care of when we returned from a week vacation. She left our house immaculate. 10/10. Would recommend her to all our family and friends.”
“Anna is so great!! This was our first time doing any sort of pet sitting or house sitting and we immediately felt comfortable to leave our dog in her care. We are so thankful for her services and would definitely have her pet sit again!!”
About: I have pet sat for neighbors and family friends since I was thirteen years old. I would feed cats and dogs as well as walk dogs. It is my top priority that every animal in my care gets the love and attention they need. I have a part-time job, but I am available everyday for drop in visits, walking, and house sittings. My schedule is overall very open. I will not board in my own home due to personal circumstances but am willing to drop by to check in on your furry friend. I will provide them with food, love, and attention as they deserve to be spoiled after all :)
“We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive. Our cats are typically very anxious and don’t warm up to new people easily, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them. By the end of our trip, they were comfortable and even snuggly with her, which really says a lot. She treats your pets like her own and consistently goes above and beyond what’s asked. As anxious pet parents, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also provided regular, detailed updates, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our pets and will definitely be using her again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets, understand their quirks, and keep you sane while you’re away—she’s it. 10/10, no notes.”
“Kate did an AMAZING job taking care of our three pups! She send pictures and gave regular updates each day! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our fur pups were well cared for. Kate will be our go to dog sitter! 💕”
“Asianna was great! She was prompt, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. He's shy but she did a wonderful job of getting to know him. I will definitely be asking Asianna back in the future!”
“Eleonora did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and 2 cats in our home. She walked our dog every day and kept us posted throughout the visit with messages and pics of our fur kids. She is very reliable and we would definitely book her again!”
“Kimberly was wonderful! So reliable and attentive the entire time. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again! -Beth and Knox”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of every kind since I was 10—big, small, shy, or extra wiggly! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and pamper their pets for years. Along the way, I’ve also cared for reptiles, birds, and other unique companions. Whether it’s a turtle that needs tank time, a parrot that loves to chat, or a pup who lives for belly rubs, I treat every pet like part of the family! I’m a college student with an open and flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and can easily adjust my hours to fit your pet’s routine. My home is spacious, cozy, and fully pet-friendly! I have plenty of toys, treats, bones, and comfy spots for pets to relax and play. While I don’t have a yard, I’m close to several beautiful dog parks and walking trails here in Clovis—perfect for daily walks and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy a safe, fun, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family.
About: I have worked for dog breeders for years and I have always had animals of my own. My whole life I have worked on a farm with my family with many kinds of animals. I take my dogs for a walk every morning and I am always making sure to take them to the dog park by my house. I also used to work weekly for dog breeders where I took care of multiple litters of puppies including their parents. I have two friendly female dogs along with two male cats. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room and we have a dog park walking distance from my house.
About: Hi, my name is Jenn! I've grown up around animals my entire life. When I am not pet sitting, I foster both cats and dogs, which has given me experience working with senior pets, puppies, kittens, and animals that need extra patience and support. I believe pet care goes beyond basic needs. I take the time to ensure pets feel safe, mentally stimulated, and comfortable. Whether that means positive reinforcement training, enriching play, and giving them extra affection. I also love baking homemade healthy snacks for pets and enjoy learning new ways to ensure your pet is happy. For the next three months, my schedule is flexible. I am available to board pets during the weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate various schedules for people who are vacationing or need a dog walker. I strive to create a calm and fun environment for your pet. Currently, there are no children in my home which allows for a quieter more relaxed setting for pets who may need extra comfort or routine. In my home, I have plenty of space for your pet's needs. I have one dog and two cats that are friendly with other dogs and cats. However, I can also accommodate an additional room or a separate area for your pet. Simply share your preference, and I can accommodate it.
“Wow! What a relief to have found Victoria! She is kind and sweet, loves animals and was so sweet to mine! I was able to go on a last minute trip with my family and relax knowing they were in good hands!”
About: I love pets and animals and have lots of experience! I pet sit for all my friends and coworkers as they say I have a special connection with their pets. Animals love me and I love them! Happy to watch young or senior pets, and have experience with exotic pets like reptiles and birds As a teacher, I have all federal holidays off as well as weekends. I’m in town otherwise, so I can dependably check in on animals over weekdays as well. I will always make sure to take good care of your pets in your home, and take care of your home as well! Homes are a special and sacred place and I will always respect your area. It is great to watch them in their own home as this is less stress for your pets!
“Thanh-Mai was absolutely incredible! We have a very anxious and nervous Dalmatian so we weren’t sure how our Ella would do for a full 8 days with someone new in her space but she had a blast! Thanh-Mai was open to multiple meet-ups so Ella could warm up to her. By the second visit Ella was stoked to see her which really eased any worries we had about leaving her. We received pictures and updates all throughout the week with careful attention to Ella’s feelings and reactions. Thanh-Mai stayed in our apartment to keep Ella in her usual environment and when we got home she had left the place so clean and neat! It made for such a nice arrival after two days of flying. We couldn’t recommend Thanh-Mai more! Thank you for creating such a safe space for our puppy!”

This was my second time booking Anna, and once again she was wonderful! She stayed with my dogs and my daughter’s dogs for four hours while we attended a family function. We came home to happy pups and appreciated the peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Anna!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sumner Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sumner Hill on Rover is $39.13 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 506 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sumner Hill. 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 Sumner Hill 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 Sumner Hill 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 Sumner Hill 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.

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.
