“We were super impressed and so grateful for Chasity watching our dog for the first time for us while we went on vacation. She showed him so much love and affection. She would send pictures and updates on how he was doing, which helped put our minds at ease and we were able to really enjoy our vacation knowing that he was in such good hands. Thank you so much! We highly recommend her!”
“OMG, there can be no better care giver for my Lola than Jaclyn. Lola was gleeful to see us and from a previous experience I could see that Lola was her gleeful self when she saw Jaclyn. I had not left Lola before for such a long span of time so I was traveling with heavy heart. There was no need for my concerns as Jaclyn was worth all five stars If here were 10 stars she would score all ten. I will certainly book with her again Thank you, VRP”
“Kamryn is another dog sitter with Rover whose love for dogs is crystal clear. She loves being with my dog Jake and he is clearly happy being with her! I hope to continue to have Kamryn as another one of my Rover star sitters I can have stay with Jake over and over, making it a lot easier for me to leave him when I need to travel. Highly recommended!”
“Abby showed great communication skills, keeping me posted on her arrival and departure so I knew Jake was safe. She also reported Jake was limping for awhile, but had apparently recovered, which shows she was paying attention to his health and welfare. Will definitely book Abby again!”
“Amanda was great! She was so patient and caring with my overly anxious dog. She was great at communicating with me quite frequently and seemed to be very comfortable handling my boy. Amanda left my home in great condition after staying for a few days. She is one of my best sitters to date! I hope to utilize her services more before she graduates and moves on.”

I have some experience with basic obedience training, and I have knowledge for the proper care needed for puppies and I have raised several litters of kittens. Please expect the very best from my services, if your pet needs extensive care please inform me prior to the date chosen. Please let me know what your pet's favorite games and toys are or if they enjoy a warm lap to rest on. I appreciate everyone who considers my services! I am available most days at most times. I will be free from now until early June. Please contact me anytime and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I have a fenced yard (4 ft) and a large pet friendly park near my home. During boarding and depending on the age and what your pet needs they will be taken on walks, played with, and kept company with two dog-friendly cats. I am available now until early June, please contact me for confirmation on my availability, we can find a time that works for us both. I do have my own pets at home so overnight stays I will need to leave periodically to walk my pup. I enjoy taking pups to the river trails and rotary park. They get some wiggle room to relax and explore nature that way. I have experience with Miniature Aussies, Mountain Curs, Labs, Golden Retrievers and Corgis. I am open to any breed.
“Rae was fantastic with my fur family! I have a high anxiety dog and he dealt with my absence very well with Rae's patience and attention. Even my extra shy kitty came out to say hello. I got lots of videos and my mind was at ease while on vacation. I highly recommend!”
“Vanessa was good with our crew of 3 dogs. Sent photo updates everyday. Before we got back from her first overnight sitting with the pups, I booked another last minute sitting with her. I have a senior dog that needs medication and has trouble getting up, and she does well with him.”
“We had a great meet and greet and Kaidance did a great job taking care of Jake and staying in touch with me during the time stayed in my house. She let me know when she arrived and departed, sent lots of pictures during the stay, and left me with a written "diary" of her activities and experiences with Jake and the house. I will be be happy to book Kaidance for dog and house sitting again, with no reservations at all.”
“Kevin was attentive with our dogs and an immaculate house guest. He was thorough in making sure that he tended to what we asked. We appreciated his care with our pups and we felt comfortable knowing our dogs were so well taken care of. We will definitely use him again!”
“Leah was super great!! I give a full star rating. She was wonderful with the dogs and was very easy to work with. She was flexible when we got stuck out of town with late spring snowstorm. She cleaned around the house before she left.”
About: I have over 6 years of hands on experience pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors, friends, and families. I currently work at Camp Bow Wow, where I care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments in a fast paced, supervised environment. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic care, cleaning, and ensuring pets are safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m confident handling energetic puppies, senior dogs, and multiple pets at once, and I always treat every pet like my own. I'm currently in school part time , which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care. I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop ins, playtime, and feeding schedules to make sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to sticking closely to your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding, medication, and exercise needs. I’m experienced supervising multiple dogs through my work at Camp Bow Wow and am confident handling dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I keep a clean, secure environment, monitor pets closely at all times, and communicate regularly with updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I've loved animals ever since I was little. Grew up with dogs and even at one point we had a cat. As a young adult now, I have a Jack Russell of my own who is 5 so I’m very experienced with walking and being responsible around a dog. I know how special the love and beauty that our furry little friends bring to our lives. I want to make sure yours feels that love and care too! My availability is open during the week and on some weekends if I’m in town. I am inbetween jobs at the moment so I have more free time! In a client’s home, I am committed to quality time with your pet. I understand the importance of being present and paying attention to detail when it comes to animals. Even if they’re not active and don’t need to be taken out for exercise, just chilling and keeping your pet company is key if I’m sitting. This applies the same way in my own home.
“Irelynn recently house-sat with our dog again. He seemed very happy and well taken care of. We appreciate Irelynn and all the extra things she does during her stay. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs the last 2 years of my life and currently have a high-energy husky puppy. I’m used to the high energy dogs, and have no problem with the less-energetic breeds. Available to walk your dogs around the lunch hour, all afternoons and weekends. Other dog walking times can be available with a long enough heads up. I tend to keep a close eye on all the dogs I’ve watched. I make sure to keep their needs first and I stay off my phone when spending quality time with mine and others’ dogs.
“This was my first time using Erika and she was great! She was very communicative and asked clarifying questions, as Ginger was anxious from the wind and unknown reasons. Erika is very caring and I can tell she loves animals. Ginger was happy and healthy when I came home and my house was clean and well cared for!”
“I’ve been using Rover for many years, and Ellie might be the best sitter we’ve had yet. Our pup absolutely loved her, and we felt comfortable with her right away — which let us truly enjoy our time away. We’re hoping she’s available for us again in the future!”
“Christine was wonderful with our dog, Linus. Linus is very leery of new people and it takes some patience to fully gain his trust, to understand and appreciate him! She was perfect for him! They were fast friends and he was a happy pup in our absence. What more could a dog mom want!? Highly recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - The Buttes
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 82 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across The Buttes. 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 The Buttes 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 The Buttes 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 The Buttes 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
