“Jessica was wonderful! She was able to help with fairly short notice which I so appreciated. Her communication was excellent and I loved receiving the pictures and updates of my fur babies. I highly recommend Jessica ❤️”
“Tracy made leaving our adolescent puppy for the first time we were away much easier! Our dog is 8 months old and can act like a real rambunctious teenager, and Tracy had no issues dealing with her antics - and went above and beyond to fulfill her activity needs! We would recommend Tracy to anyone who needs a sitter!”
“Cynder was respectful and quick to respond. She sent pictures throughout the time she watched our kitties. We felt comfortable while we were away and trusted her to keep our fur babies safe! Thank you Cynder!!”
“WOW. I sure hope I can get the pups out and about like Angie did, now that we've returned home. 😅 The Dogs look healthy, happy, and the pictures of daily outings is cool! Highly recommend Angie. Have referred her to others in need of excellent pet service. Angie is observant, professional and caring. ThnQ so much!”
“Sofia has gone above and beyond caring for our 4 dogs while we were out of town. Her sweetness and attention to detail with our dogs, made us feel not worried. Usually our dog Feebs barks at sitters, and she didn’t with Sofia. We would definitely love to bring her to sit for us again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you!!!!”
About: I grew up with a husky dog throughout my entire childhood and I am now a proud cat owner. Huskies can be particularly difficult dogs to walk, and I have been walking them for as long as I can remember. My parents considered our dog as a part of the family and always provided an abundance of love and activity. I have taken the same approach with my cats and I love every moment. I have had my older cat, Iris, for 5 years and I rescued a kitten, Aster, almost 2 months ago. My connection with the pets in my life drives my love for all of the pets that I provide care to. I love puppies and kittens, antics and all. I enjoy walking, hiking, and playing with dogs. Being a cat owner, I have a wonderful time hanging out with cats. Whether they love to play, just want pets, or even take a while to warm up to people, I’m here for it. I am most available Sunday-Thursday. Friday and Saturday can work for specific situations. Sunday: all day Monday: before 5 pm Tuesday: all day Wednesday: before 5 pm Thursday: all day Friday: before 2 pm Saturday: available for house sitting for the right situation. Send me a message and we can discuss if it’s a good fit. I absolute LOVE to play and will be good company for a dog. I am mindful, and will be sure to give them lots of potty breaks. I am also an out doors person so walks are no problem! I approach every cat slowly and allow them to make the first move. Once we break the ice, I love engaging in play with interactive toys or providing pets based off of what the cat wants.
“Heather is great! First of all, Heather truly loves and respects pets. It is very reassuring to know your pets will be well taken care of. She will send cute pictures every day of your precious pets. Heather is effecient and knowledgeable and follows up with what ever schedule you give her. She will leave your house in perfect condition and you will find your pets relaxed and unstressed. We recommend her 100%!!”
“Kalle was great!!! She was very thorough in her questions to make sure she understood my instruction s since this was her first time. She went above an beyond what was expected. My Cali was looking for her the day after I returned home.”
“Danika was available lastly minute and I couldn’t be happier. She did an amazing job caring for our pups. She was thorough and caring, gave lots of cuddles, walks, and provided pics. She was great to communicate with and I felt at ease knowing she was there.”
“Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of my dog while I was away. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure my dog was comfortable and happy. I would happily recommend her!”
“If I could give Michael 10 stars I would! He is a phenomenal sitter who went above and beyond to care for my 2 pups as well as 2 other family pups while we went on a family vacation to Hawaii. We were all able to relax knowing the dogs were being well cared for, which was much needed for us all. Michael sent daily updates with photos and our pups looked happy the entire time he was with them - it gave us such great peace of mind to know they were being loved on. We came home to happy pups and an immaculately clean home. Each of the dogs has a different feeding routine including some medications, different potty break times, and different temperaments. From my 2 labs who love to play and snuggle, to the bonus dogs who are older and anxious (including one who's mostly blind and deaf), Michael gave each dog the care and attention they specifically needed. We're already scheduled to have him dogsit again next month, and plan to use his services over and over. If you're looking for an amazing sitter, look no further and hire Michael!”
“Janet was very attentive and thorough. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout her stay. Our dog Hollie and birds were well taken care of. Janet walked our dogs more than we asked for so she went above and beyond her scope of work. We will definitely be booking her again.”
“We’ve used Megan each time we go out of town and we’re always very impressed with her communication, level of care for our 2 pups, and the tidiness of the house when we return. She is the best!”
“Chris did an awesome job taking care of my two dogs for 3 weeks while I traveled very far to see family. He stayed in my apartment with them, and kept them active with lots of walks/runs, finding places where they can run around off-leash. He was always friendly and communicative and went above and beyond to make my dogs happy and comfortable. Really highly recommend him!”
“Ashleigh was great! Our dogs were very well cared for and we received lots of pictures and texts to keep us posted. Ashleigh stayed overnight and took great care, everything was very tidy when we returned home.”
“Chyann was great with our dogs while we were away. We had a last minute change of plans and she was available and stepped right in to help. Our house was clean when we came home and the dogs were happy.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sun Valley
We had such a wonderful experience with Devon! She went above and beyond to make sure our dogs felt safe and comfortable during the Fourth of July fireworks. She also kept us updated throughout her stay with messages and photos, so we always knew how they were doing. It was clear she genuinely cared for our dogs, and they were calm and well cared for when we got home. We are so grateful for her kindness, reliability, and excellent communication, and we would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Amy, did fantastic! We will definitely hire her again to house sit and take care of our elderly dog Alice. She was very accommodating and even helped feed our bird, water the plants, and bring in our mail/packages while we were gone. We are very particular in whom we let watch Alice (shes 13 years old and very spoiled). Amy met every request and particulars for her including giving her medications and special feedings, and the biggest one was not leaving her home alone longer than 4-5 hours at a time. Thank you Amy you did great!
Whitney was so great to our high energy Border Collie/Australian Shepherd and our big boss cat. She sent us many photos of them and kept us informed on what the gang was doing. We've had a few dog sitters that didn't met our expectations, but Whitney is one of our top favorites and will be using her again. She met with us on short notice and was happy to reach out if she had questions.
Yubia is a great sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter/house sitting. She was responsive and reliable during a busy period and sent us regular updates. There were no doubts that our 3 dogs were being cared for under Yubia's care. We plan to work with Yubia for all of our dog sitting needs.
Jessica was a true life saver! From our last minute request to issues getting our e-key padlock to work, she went with the flow and took amazing care of our pup. We are looking forward to having Jessica watch Thor again in the future because she is so amazing and caring for animals!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sun Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sun 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 702 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.

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.
