“Leah was the perfect sitter for our pup Yeti. Although we had limited cell service, she provided daily updates and photos that made us feel at ease while we were not very reachable. He seemed very happy and comfortable and the house was left clean and tidy. We will use her again!”
“Karina was great. Very communicative, offered a meet-and-greet before booking the stay, and sent lot's of images and videos throughout the stay. She went above and beyond in sending overviews of her walks and extra videos. Came home to a happy and healthy pup, clean house, and would definitely use her again.”
“It was our first time having Haley watch our dog and 2 cats and she was great. She communicated quickly, sent lots of updates and left the house extremely clean. We felt at ease leaving our pets with her. She even helped out extra when our flight back was unexpectedly delayed. Thank you Haley!”
About: I raised my 2 dogs from puppies to adults. Very familiar with potty and obedience training. Familiar with dogs that are reactive and need some extra attention. Work from home so I will almost always be around to watch them and provide attention if I am boarding your dog. Already give my dogs 2-3 walks through the day. I have a fully fenced yard and doggy doors through the garage and to the backyard. One of my dogs, Lucy, is very friendly with others and the other, Javi, prefers his space, but generally just ignores others.
About: Hi, I'm new to rover but have about 10 years of experience caring for various pets when my friends are out of town. I truly love all dogs and wish I could take in every dog that isn't in a a loving home, and I have been told that I have a very calming presence, even to the ones like yours who are in a loving home. I currently work part time, (about 30 -35 hours a week) and am looking to pet sit while I figure out long term plans and prepare to go back to college in the fall, but I have a fairly flexible schedule if given reasonable advance. Unfortunately my current living situation would likely be too stressful for your pets, (I live with a dog and a cat), but I am willing to either stay in your home or commute, and update you frequently if desired, as I understand the anxieties around leaving your pet with a relative stranger. I'm more than willing to meet ahead of time in order to develop trust and discuss any important details.

“Jack did a wonderful job taking care of Fen and Eddie during the 7 days and night we were in DC for Thanksgiving. He got along well with the dogs, sent us updates and pictures and communicated nicely. The house was spotless when we got home. What a nice relief! 5 stars! We will use Jack again when we travel.”
“Jazmin was awesome! She stayed overnight with our two small dogs and kept them happy with some much needed affection. She was a great communicator and even sent us pics of the dogs so we could see how good of a time they were all having without us 😅 Would definitely love to have her back.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, and animals have always been an important part of my life.

“We are so happy we found Lea! It seemed like our dogs didn’t even miss us with all the fun they were having with her while we were away (for almost 10 days). We so appreciated her daily photo updates. She gave them a ton of exercise and play time each day, and lots of cuddles as well. We will definitely ask Lea to watch our “kids” next time we need to leave town!”
“She sent multiple daily updates and pictures, the telling thing was she was able to get our shy kitty to not only come out from under the bed but downstairs and rub on her leg. Any cat people will understand how huge that is!!!❤️❤️?”
“We had Rachel stay with our 3 dogs, 2 cats and outdoor wildlife for almost 3 weeks. I was a bit concerned since our “kids” have never been watched by anyone except family. Plus, since Covid, they have had the pleasure of having “Mom and Dad” home 24/7. When we got home, we were greeted with lots of barking and wagging tails. Everyone was so happy! Even the cats came out to greet us, which rarely happens after a trip. This tells me that everyone had a good time and was well cared for, with no trauma from our absence . The outdoor animals came to the yard at their usual feeding time and the bird feeders were filled. It was as if we had never left our home at all! Rachel clearly made everyone feel safe secure and comfortable. What a joy to see! Our house was clean and Rachel even changed the sheets since she knew that we would not arrive home until well past midnight and would want to roll right into bed. Everything was tidy and in its place. I am so happy with the care that was given to my home and our menagerie. I am very pleased with Rachel and am extremely happy that she will be sitting for us again in the near future. I could not have found a better house/pet sitter for my gang.”
About: Twenty-five years of hand on pet experience means I’ve cared for just about every kind of animal personality there is! Shy, wild, senior, high-energy, you name it. I’m kind and attentive, but also quirky and genuinely fun that shows up with real enthusiasm. As a full-time adventurer (hiking, kayaking, paddleboarding, overlanding) and proud adventure cat parent, I bring high energy when your pet wants to play and calm, patient attention when they don’t. Your pet gets a sitter who actually gets them. My schedule is built around your pet’s needs! I’m available for evening walks starting at 8pm, three days a week plus 4 free days with fairly open availability! Plus full weekend availability — giving your dog a consistent, reliable routine without sacrificing quality time. With four days off during the week, I stay energized and genuinely excited for every walk, never running on empty. Whether it’s a nightly stroll or weekend adventure, I show up ready. I care for pets exclusively in their own home — their familiar space, their comfort zone. Staying in a pet’s own environment keeps stress and anxiety low, especially for pets who don’t do well with new surroundings or other animals. I respect your home, follow your routines closely, and prioritize keeping your pet calm, safe, and secure in the space they already know and love.
About: I’ve had pets and family pets I’m always ready and willing to give them what they need. My baby loves animals too. It will be fun! I feel like they are the same as humans. I made a lil human! So I can manage my son loves dogs too. Just happy to get out more. I don’t have any pets anymore mine got old. I make sure they are feed and tuckered out before bed. Getting as much attention as they need.

The average cost of House Sitting in Sunriver is $70 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $90 per night.

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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
