“Leah housesat our 2 dogs over holiday break and was a real trooper with a bunch of sloppy weather conditions to make sure that our pups got out for two walks a day, since they need regular exercise. We got great updates while we were gone and came home to two happy pups.”
“Taunya went above and beyond for our babies. We have 2 small morkies and I always hesitate leaving them with just anyone. One door or gate left open for seconds could easily be the moment we’d lose one or both pups. After interviewing Taunya I could see she focused on giving them her devoted attention and love. They are very easy to pupsit but also her response to them when they met was enduring. We were gone a full week and we received daily pictures and notifications. Upon returning, the house was clean, sheets were washed and returned to the bed, the yard was picked up from dog droppings, and everything looked immaculate. I would certainly use Taunya’s services in the future and recommend her if you are looking for a dog sitter.”
“We booked Layne to spend three days with our two pups while we were staying in Sunriver and skiing at Mt. Bachelor. He was terrific with our dogs, prompt in replying to messages, and flexible as our plans were up in the air due to weather. We enthusiastically give him five stars.”
“This was the first time using Allyson to watch our two dogs. She was very responsive and communicative. She sent multiple pictures during her stay. The house was spotless when we arrived home and both dogs were very happy. We will definitely use Allyson in the future!”
“Incredible. I have used rover a few times with varying success and Evan was top notch in every way. From great communication to genuine care of my pup to leaving my house spotless, and even washing the sheets so they were done when I arrived home...every part was amazing. I hope that he is free every time I need a dog sitter ❤️”
“I am so grateful I found Michael to help take care of all my babies. Not only did he take incredible care of my large difficult dog, he also took great care of my bird, rabbit, and cat. He communicated well, sent pictures, and everything was perfect when I returned.”
“Karina was great with my dog! Her communication was always quick and she was willing to cater to all my dogs needs over the weekend. Super professional and responsible! Highly recommend!”
“So glad we found Kaili. We have a very nervous/anxious pup who takes a long time to warm up to a new person. Kaili was very patient with him and gave us honest updates. She went above and beyond with doing cleaning and laundry. Felt very safe trusting her with both our house and our fur baby!”
About: I love animals! I've been a petsitter since my teens and twenties! I've had my own very small business since 1995. I have a degree in Zoology and biology and worked as a Vet assistant when I was younger. I have had my own senior cats before and helped my mother with my childhood older dogs. I know how to give meds, make food to specifications, exercise, play with, and cuddle pets. All animals adore me. I'm currently taking reservations for petsitting overnights in the Sunriver and Bend area to be able to spend more time with family in friends in that area. I am a mobile massage therapist in addition to a pet sitter so I plan on finding clients in the area while I'm there. I will be able to hang out a lot, do walks, play, rest, be their buddy while your family is away. At the very least I will do all the feedings and daily care on days where I may work a little or be seeing my friends. I will be caring for pets in your home and taking care of your home. I will treat your place as my home base while I'm there. I will spend as much time with your pets as I can in addition to the daily requests for walks and playing. I will feed them as requested, keep an eye on and refill water, watch for any signs of ill health, and will give so many cuddles.
About: I have over 20 years of experience and have had hundreds of dogs come through my house through foster care programs such as SPCA and humane society. Also experienced with cats. My schedule is wide open and can give your animal all the time and care they need. I have reliable transportation, am active, responsible, and love animals. I’m active and love to go on long hikes. I live on 12 acres in Deschutes river woods with lots of room for play time. I am very mindful and responsible and will treat your animals with all the attention, respect, and love they deserve.
“Madison was absolutely fantastic! Our first experience with Rover.com and we will definitely use it again. Madison was punctual, fleixble, and great with our dogs. She made this Christmas trip the best ever! I would recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their furry family members. Thanks Madison!”
“I would highly recommend Lauren! She was excellent with communication, sent multiple pictures throughout everyday of my trip. The house was clean and tidy when we returned and the dogs were so happy. From the pictures she sent, I could tell my dogs were super comfortable with her. She took them on daily walks and gave medicine as instructed. Lauren was super professional and made sure my dogs needs were met. 10/10!”
“Jazmin took great care of my husky Wiley at my home while I was in Mexico for 10 days. She let me know when he wasn’t feeling well due to his medicine and kept me updated afterwards as well to make sure I knew he was doing better. Then when our flights were delayed an extra day, she was able to still help out after scheduled. Thank you so much!”
“Second time booking Cassandra and we are so thankful for her thoughtful care, know that our pups are in good hands while we are gone. We got pictures and updates daily. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you Cassandra!!”
“Chris stayed at our house watching our three large dogs while we were in Thailand. Chris bonded with our pups almost immediately. Took them on walks 2x per day. He sent regular daily updates, photos and videos. We plan on using again in the future.”
About: Lifelong animal lover with experience volunteering at shelters, fostering pets, overnight pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for all kinds of animals since childhood reliably. I'm home from college for the summer and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. Whether it's morning, afternoon, or evening visits, I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I'm excited to spend my summer keeping pets happy, active, and well cared for while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each pet's routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and secure in their own home. I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and bedtime to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I'll provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while making sure they're always supervised and well cared for. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, confident, and worry free while you're away.
“Caroline was an amazing sitter for our lab. She was great with her and sent us daily updates with photos. She took our dog on walks and hikes and made sure she got plenty of exercise while we were away. Our house was super clean when we got home and we had a happy pup waiting for us. Highly reccomend Caroline!”
“Sherry was a fantastic house and dog sitter. She communicated clearly and consistently throughout the stay, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates—seeing our dogs happy and relaxed made it much easier to be gone. Our home was well cared for, and the dogs were clearly comfortable and well looked after. We would absolutely recommend Sherry to others and would be happy to book with her again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sunriver
Evan is truly the best dog sitter I have ever had!!!!! He is so courteous, conscientious, considerate, passionate, kind, and he goes above and beyond in every single way to make sure your dogs are loved by him like they are loved by you! He makes sure everyone involved human and animal is comfortable, content, and happy! He exceeded all of my expectations, and I cannot recommend him enough!!!
Allyson was a fantastic sitter for my senior dog. She came over and walked my dog two different times to get to know her before her stay, and asked lots of great questions to make sure she could give my dog the right care. She was the perfect level of communicative, sharing photos and updates to keep my mind at ease while I was away. My dog has specific food and medication instructions which she had no problem with, and she left my house in great condition after her stay. I would love to book with her again for my future trips!
This was Kim’s second time staying with Buddy while we were away and she has been totally reliable and a great companion for Buddy in our absence. Kim sent daily reports and pics, took him for long walks and the house looked exactly the same when we returned. We highly recommend Kim and Ossie and will definitely hire them again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sunriver
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sunriver on Rover is $70.4 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 633 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunriver. 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 Sunriver 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 Sunriver 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 Sunriver 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 Sunriver. On Rover:
- 99% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
