“Emily was just wonderful! Our birds took to her right away. She provided excellent care, sent tons of pictures and communicated frequently. She was so attentive and caring, provided a lot of interaction and took care of them so well. They just loved her. We will definitely use Emily again!”
“Liz came to visit and learn about my “needy boys” before hand. (They are all males, hence “my boys.” It was less stressful for me knowing she wanted to know exactly what to do for each one. Caring for them is a load but she was willing to tackle it, and they fell in love with her immediately. She gave them all equal time, and I couldn’t ask for more. I was nervous because they had not known her before, but as I said they loved her immediately and she was quick to get to know them. I was able to get relax on my trip while receiving sweet pictures and texts daily. Yes, I will use her again. Thanks Liz!”
“Our dogs had a fantastic weekend! We were kept informed with photos and updates about how our dogs were. Our girl that’s tougher to win over even cuddled up! We came home to a clean house, including the guest bedding already in the dryer. Blake was professional, communicative and loved on our pups as if they were his own!”
“From the moment I meet Jessie, she made me feel confident that I had made the right decision to use Rover and choose her as our sitter. She stayed one week in my house and took excellent care of my three dogs. She was in contact with me every day sending pictures and updates. My dogs loved Jessie. She is a lovely young lady and very professional.”

Your pet will have space to enjoy and get comfortable during their stay.
“Katelyn was awesome! She took excellent care of my two dogs and my home. She sent photos and video of my pups multiple times a day, kept me informed, and even dealt with arriving packages, watering my plants, and other various tasks. Upon returning home, I found happy, healthy dogs and my house spotless and clean. I would most definitely book Katelyn again in the future!”
“Anna was so good with my dogs and followed all instructions. She was super respectful of my home, and left without a trace. I felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of my two dogs, and upon my return home they were relaxed and happy. I will definitely be hiring Anna again! Wonderful!”
“This is the first time that I have used Rover. Sakara did a lovely job. I would definitely request her again. She sent pictures almost daily and my dogs looked happy and content. I currently have a foster dog who is timid and Sakara did a great job with her. It was nice to be away and know that my fur babies were well taken care of.”
“Jean is amazing!!! Very combinative easy to talk with. Exceeded all expectations. I made an error trying to book her, so it didn’t get put in her Callander. At last minute she moved stuff around in life to still be able to accommodate us. I’m so thankful for her. She’s a life saver, my dogs absolutely loved her she sent pictures and videos. I could tell they were in good hands with let me relax. My Doberman is pouting around the house the day after we got back. I think he is missing his new friend. She is the best. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Tess has been doing a great job walking my dogs regularly the last few weeks, so I knew I could trust her with my babies while I was out of town for a week. She sent regular photo updates of them eating, going outside and snuggling. She was considerate of the house and made sure to leave everything better than she found it. Her communication was great! I will be using her again.”
“Deseray took excellent care of our three dogs. She communicated every day and followed directions well. My house was clean and plants tended as well. I would book Deseray again. 😊”
“This is my second time booking Sarah for house/dog sitting, and she’s great! This time I asked on pretty short notice, and she was available and accommodating to my schedule. Will definitely book again :)”
“Steffany did a great job housesitting! She barely left my dogs alone for 4 days, followed instructions, and even cleaned and washed the bedding before leaving. I’ll definitely use her again in the future and recommend to anyone needing a house sitter!”

“Hunter is THE BEST PETSITTER! We had stopped going out of town together and would just take trips separately because we could not find someone caring,reliable, and consistent to take care of our dogs. The last few sitters we tried were horrible and did not properly care for our dogs. Hunter went above and beyond. The dogs all loved him. The house was clean and the dogs were all happy and healthy and loved while we were gone.”
About: As a lifelong dog and cat owner who loves to travel, I know how important it is to know you’ve left your pets in good hands while you’re away. I work full-time but remotely, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on/feed pets or stay overnight with them if need be. I can’t host others’ pets in my home, but I can easily and safely take care of pets at your house by keeping the home clean, communicating effectively and providing frequent updates. I always appreciate getting photos and messages about my pets’ care while I’m gone and will be happy to do the same for you.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tontitown
We needed a last minute dog sitter and got ahold of Cambria. From the get go she was prompt in replies, thorough and very friendly. Our dogs also really seemed to like her. During the house sitting she sent many updates about coming and going, how the dogs were doing and even sent some great pictures of the dogs. Overall very happy with Cambria and would definitely recommend!
Megan went above and beyond for our dogs! She easily cared for our puppy after a spay with special instructions for her incision. Our older dog loved every minute of her cuddles and we cannot wait to have her back! We appreciate her photos, updates, and clarifying questions to make sure our babies were well cared for. It was wonderful to have a night away with Megan in charge and we highly recommend her!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Tontitown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tontitown on Rover is $32.1 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 549 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tontitown. 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 Tontitown 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 Tontitown 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 Tontitown 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 Tontitown. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
