“Maria was very caring and considerate. She texted updates and pictures. She also responded quickly to any questions or concerns I may have had. My home and puppy were perfect on my return. Looking forward to calling her again!”
“Kaylee was awesome with my babies. All 3 are not the easiest to handle but she did it with confidence and ease. I had a peace of mind on my trip knowing she was spoiling my babies rotten. Thanks again Kaylee, I look forward to booking you again soon!”
“Kathleen was the most wonderful pet sitter ever! Not only did my 2 dogs and cat love her but so did we! She stayed at my house for 2 weeks while we were in Spain and cooked for them and even watered our plants and took care of our house. My babies were so well taken care of and loved! ❤️ I definitely will be using her every time! I recommend you do too!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Tayla while she watched our dog Kazak for a week. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and reliable. Tayla checked in regularly, sent updates, and never hesitated to ask thoughtful questions when she needed clarification—something we truly appreciated. It was clear that she was attentive and genuinely cared about Kazak’s well-being. We returned home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a peaceful home. Highly recommend Tayla to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years by watching pets for family members, coworkers, and neighbors. Through these experiences, I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. I believe pets are happiest when they feel comfortable, safe, and loved, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos while they’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm currently working part-time, so l'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, and I live in a one-story home with plenty of space to relax. I also have a friendly miniature Goldendoodle who loves other dogs and enjoys having playmates. I live with my retired grandmother, who is also a big dog lover, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine and instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special care requests. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have more then 15 years with dogs, cats and birds. I have worked with vets with dogs under my care. Dogs with medical conditions and healthy ones. I treat all animals with respect and all the love they deserve. While in my care I provide all that I would for my own. I have had up to 14 dogs in my care at once before, walked fed and love each of them. I have routines I follow for each pet I care for and will follow in home care routine as well. For daycare services I have a fenced yard and enough grounds to walk and keep pets busy. I do require all pets in my care to have shots, flea and tick treatment up to date with proof. All pets MUST be friendly with my own. All pets in my care must be house trained and when possible create trained. If you have a high energy dog that needs to be busy all day I can provide the exercise.
“Raven was so great! This was my first time using Rover and she made it so easy. She was great with my Charlie and I couldn’t be more grateful. I will definitely keep booking with Raven! :)”
About: Throughout my life, we have added several different dog breeds to our family. I will care for your fur babies as they were my own. I am so lucky to have adopted puppies and cared for them until the end of their lives. I am a very caring person and will give your pets lots of attention and love. I am retired, so with that I have plenty of time to play and love your pet. I am available during the week even over night. I have plenty of room in my house for them and will be glad to walk them. I do have a patio that I can close if they want to spend time out doors.
“Roberta has been absolutely fantastic! You can tell she is a true dog lover from the first moment she met our pups. She has been a perfect fit for helping us during a busy time—always professional and consistently on time. We especially love that she sends regular updates and videos, which gives us such peace of mind. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and highly recommend booking her!”

Maria took wonderful care of our cat, Star, for an entire week, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She followed all of our detailed care instructions, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Star and treated him with kindness and patience. We came home to a happy, healthy cat and a well-cared-for home. Maria is reliable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter, and we would gladly book her again!
I can't recommend Emily highly enough. She stayed at my house and watched my maltipoo for over two weeks, and she did an absolutely amazing job. I'd never met her before, so naturally I had some nerves about handing over my home and my dog to someone new, but those disappeared fast. She earned my complete trust. She took wonderful care of the house and even better care of Baxter, who was clearly happy and well looked after the whole time. On top of that, she kept me updated regularly, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Emily was an incredible find, and I'd welcome her back in a heartbeat. If you're looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring, she's the one.
Julia was great! She took my dogs on walks, she sent pictures of them, and communicated very well. When I got home I could tell my dogs were well taken care of and they were treated as if they were her own dogs. My flight home get delayed and Julia was even willing to run back over and let them out again. She is very nice, professional, and left my home in better shape than I left it. I definitely recommend Julia and will book her again when I can!
Christine was absolutely amazing watching our dogs while we were on vacation. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She treated them like her own — giving them love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Christine kept us updated with messages and pictures, which meant so much and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. When we came home, our dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and genuine love for animals. We would highly recommend Christine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She is the best!
Andrew took really good care of NY 4 year old Boxer, Tucker in my home while I was away for 5 days. He kept me informed on how he was doing throughout his stay at my home, including beautiful pictures of him walking, relaxing and playing. Not only did he do a good job providing his pet sitting services, he also kept the areas allowed in our home neat and tidy. I highly recommend Andrew as a great pet sitter. I will request his services again for my future pet sitting needs. Thank Andrew for a job well done.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sun Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sun Valley on Rover is $78.81 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 3,157 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sun 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 Sun 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 Sun 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 Sun 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
