“We’ve had Lindsay house sit and care for our spaniel multiple times and her care and communications have always been stellar. Can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Kayla is the best of the best! All of our pets are well taken care of and our house is always in fantastic shape when we return. We’ve rebooked her several times and she takes all the worry out of leaving our pets and home!”
“My husband and I planned a vacation and our normal sitter was not available. Becca was used as a Dog Sitter for one of our neighbors so I knew she was reliable. I have never had used any one off Rover for an overnight stay at our house with our dog so I was very nervous, especially since this wasn’t a one or two night trip, we were gone for five nights. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving him with someone new, but I felt very comfortable once I met Becca and felt she was going to do her best while taking care of my dog. I left detailed notes which might have been too much but Becca understood that I was just trying to keep my dog on his schedule and comfortable. Becca sent lots of photos and updates about my dog daily which really helped put me at ease. Becca helped me enjoy my vacation worry-free with her communication and updates! I had no issues and my dog loved her! She’s communicative and super sweet, I can’t wait to use Becca again! I highly recommend Becca 🙂🫶🏼 ⭐️”
“Danielle was absolutely wonderful with our two pups and kitty. She stayed at our home and took care of it like it was her own. Our two Frenchies loved her the minute they met her. We got pics of them cuddling on the couch and playing outside in the yard! I would highly recommend Danielle for all your pet care needs. We don't leave our babies with just anyone and she is just a gem!!”
“Chris was amazing and so patient with my 2 special needs dogs. Great communication and spent tons of quality time playing and exercising with them. Definatly will be scheduling him again.”
“Brooklyn is so kind and gentle, our dogs instantly felt comfortable with her, including our high anxiety guy who is very selective. She kept the house in perfect condition and sent updates a couple of times a day which was the perfect amount, not too much and not too infrequent. We're very pleased to say the least and hope she'll come back when we have future needs. ☺️❤️”
“Ali’s communication is top notch! She responds in a timely manner, is very friendly, and you can tell she takes it seriously. I’m so happy we found her to watch our 4 dogs while we had to stay in the hospital for a week. After our meet and greet we knew we could have time away from home without stressing if everything was getting done. She provided daily updates and pictures, our dogs clearly enjoyed her company. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Dana took excellent care of my girl. She communicated well throughout. It was clear Ellie was loved and well cared for in my absence. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Nancy took care of our puppy Indy for 2 days and a half or so. Sent some pictures to kept us updated throughout her stay and the house was the way we left it. She is trustworthy and kind. We would like for her to house/sit Indy again.”
“Isabella took such good care of our home and our kitties! She was awesome about coming for a meet and greet and responding quickly to messages. Our babies were well loved, and our home was left very clean and tidy. She was fantastic!”
“Hannah was reliable and conscientious. She seemed to really enjoy my dogs and I think they enjoyed her. She responsibly adapted to a medical issue and reached out with concerns. Great communication!”
“Claire took great care of our fur babies and our home. She was communicative and kept us updated on how Stanley or Sophia were doing while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Alyson was a great dog-sitter for my 7 year old golden retriever! Not only did she walk, feed and spend time with him, but she also took care of his hot spots that needed tending to. She went above and beyond the normal dog-sitting routine. My dog loved having her watch him. I am so happy to have found her on Rover.com and look forward to using her services in the future!”
“Ellie was so great, very communicative and took great care of my animals as well as the house. She was truly a pleasure to have here while we were away. I’d definitely book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Timnath
We originally hired Trey for standard house sitting, though after meeting and working together a bit his visits turned into full training sessions and we ended up with more care than we thought we could get for our guys while we were away. He stayed on schedule and worked nicely with others who were staying out our home to make sure our boys exercised, engaged, and cared for. What sets this apart was that every visit ended up as high-level training session. Communication was fantastic and completely reliable before, during, and after the sit, good photos every day of the visits. Trey is a natural at reading body language in real time and has expertise with large breeds and helped us update patterns that had crept into our own handling. We’re thrilled he moved to Fort Collins and brought his skills here. We’ll absolutely be booking him for future trips and are already lining up our holiday schedule with him.
Emma sent lots of photos and I could tell that my pups were happy and well cared for. My younger dog is quite anxious and Emma noticed some inappropriate chewing and contacted me to see if that was normal for her or not, wondering if she was feeling anxious. I really appreciated her attention to that detail and her communicating with me about it. She did a great job!
Sarah recently cared for our dog and house sat. We couldn’t be more pleased. This is the first time we’ve left our pup since she lost her buddy a couple of years ago. Sarah regularly communicated and sent pictures, reassuring us that things were going well. We could really enjoy our time away knowing that Sarah was there. Thank you, Sarah.

FAQs for House Sitting - Timnath
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Timnath on Rover is $55.5 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 1,679 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Timnath. 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 Timnath 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 Timnath 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 Timnath 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.
