“Lauren was great! Took great care of our big, energetic dog and our cat! She kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
“One of the best sitters I have had. Frequent updates, followed all instructions, went above and beyond. Dash was happy, well cared for, fed, clean, and loved. I felt completely at ease leaving him with Shannon.”
“Amanda was amazing with our 16-year old dog! We are already planning to use her again! She took care of him in our home, and we felt totally comfortable with her. She also sent regular updates to me along the way! I would highly recommend her! TS”
“Jenny was very attentive and communicative while watching the dog and house, and also when scheduling. Everything was in good shape when I returned. She made sure to ask lots of questions about the dog's lifestyle/habits/quirks/challenges, and took plenty of notes when I walked through the procedures with her.”
“She was so nice and took great care of my dog. My dog sometimes is timid among strangers but Heidy made the experience much better and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. 🌸🌸 10/10 recommend.”
“Jina took care of our dog and home for 2 weeks while we were out of town. She was amazing. Our pup was well cared for and I so appreciated her daily updates and photos. Jina gave our dog his daily medication, took care of our plants, brought in mail/packages and cleaned up after our pup who likes to bring food across the floor. I highly recommend her and will be looking to use her services again in the future!”
“Danny did a phenomenal job watching our two dogs, three cats and one bird over the holidays while we dealt with unexpected must do travel. When we needed to extend a few days, he graciously accommodated that as well.”
“Jeffrey was amazing with our two pups. We have one who is a bit anxious and fearful around new people, especially men, and Jeffrey quickly won him over! He was available for a meet and greet and gave tons of updates and photos to put our minds at ease. He is fantastic!!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years now. I love animals and I love giving them all the attention they need. I am willing to help with pet care no matter what that means. It could be as simple as feeding and walks. It could also be more complicated and be about making sure an older dog gets their medicine. Secretly for me pet sitting is more about spending time with animals than it is about the money. I am free all day on the weekends. I will base my weekend schedule around the dog’s schedule. On weekdays I am currently working from home 8-4. If I need to stay overnight at your home I treat it with the upmost respect. I am also willing to do other basic tasks at the house. Like watering plants and taking in the mail. I know how helpful it can be for dogs to stay in a familiar environment.
“Mia was absolutely wonderful! I felt comfortable with her the moment we met. Her communication with us was great.Dusty was in great company. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Eileen was excellent! Very organized, spent a lot of time with Milo and kept us abreast of his daily activities. I asked Milo how she was and he just smiled and wagged his tail. I was more than pleased with her services and very positive attitude!”
“Our dogs had a great weekend with Addie! They were by her side most of the time enjoying her company! Addie is trustworthy and great with our two cavapoos and we hope she will come back again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs and cats my whole life. I love to take care of pets and go on walks! I also am very flexible with timing and am always looking to be of help! I’m currently working part time, so I have a lot of free time to take care of and play with your pets! I am flexible with distance and timing as well. I will always be open to whatever you feel comfortable with in terms of keeping your pet safe. Their safety is my main priority always!
“Best catsitter ever! We couldn’t be happier with the care our cats received. Even our cat with a more challenging personality liked him. House was in perfect condition upon our return. He sent update photos and one of our cats actually seems to miss him. Would hire again. 10/10.”
“Michele stayed with our dogs for a week and took such great care of them (and our home!). She is caring, thoughtful, and thorough. We will definitely hire her again in the future. Highly recommended for your pet sitting needs!”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful. She handled my two large rambunctious dogs like a pro and I got lots of pics while I was away, which were so comforting knowing they were in great hands. She even administered meds when one of them unexpectedly got an ear infection. I highly recommend her and will not hesitate to use her again when I need to travel again.”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! She stayed in our home, following all instructions and leaving our house clean and tidy. Most importantly, she took great care of Winnie! We received super photos, so we knew they were playing and hanging out together. It was clear that Winnie was in good hands, whch allowed to have us a stress-free time away. Thank you!”
“Omar and Claudia were fantastic! Gizmo is easy going but Pepe is super hard to please, and they managed to gain his trust in no time. Omar and Claudia were punctual, professional, reliable and kind. They kept communicating with us throughout the sitting period and share photos and videos of our two boys. Their dedication to our dogs is greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely book them again soon. We really appreciate their dedication to make sure everything was perfect.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Travilah
Jessica was amazing with our cats and really easy to work with. She went above and beyond, spending a lot of extra time at the house which we really appreciated—it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we got back. Would absolutely book her again and hope she would choose to work with us again too!
Ivan took such great care of my dogs while I was out of town, and I truly felt at ease knowing they were with him! From the start, he was communicative, responsible, and clearly experienced with dogs. He made the effort to understand their routines and personalities, which meant a lot to me. While I was away, he kept me updated with pictures and made sure they were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. When I picked them up, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had been treated with patience and kindness. It’s not easy to leave your dogs behind, but Ivan made the whole experience stress-free. I’m really grateful for the care he gave them! Highly recommend!
Mia was amazing! Our anxious pup instantly warmed to her during the meet & greet, and she took great care of him during the time we were away. She was respectful of our home and everything was tidy when we got back. And she took awesome pictures and videos!! Would 100% recommend Mia.
We were VERY pleased with Jony. It was a last minute booking for an unexpected trip. He came to meet our dog and go over house/animal instructions beforehand. When he stayed at our house he left it cleaner than when he arrived! He took excellent care of our 10 yr old rescue German Shepherd and our chinchilla. Communication was excellent. We will definitely book with him again.
I cannot say enough good things about Mary. She stayed at our home while caring for our dog and my son’s cat, and she took exceptional care of both of them. From the start, Mary was friendly, engaging, and genuinely wonderful to work with. She clearly loves animals, and it showed in every interaction. Mary kept us completely at ease by sending pictures and regular updates, which meant so much to us while we were away. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her, and our home was well cared for as well. It is such a relief to find someone you can fully trust, and Mary is exactly that person. I would 100 percent recommend Mary to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. We will absolutely be using Mary again. If you need a pet sitter, look no further. Mary is truly the best.
Genevieve was AWESOME!! My whole family loved getting to meet her, including my dog and cat! She was so thorough, was very in touch while we were away, and kept them happy and entertained. When we got home, both Tucker and Samantha seemed so happy, the house was clean and all was great! We will definitely reach out to Genevieve again…..a very responsible, reliable and conscientious sitter!! We are so thankful!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Travilah
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Travilah on Rover is $47.73 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 10,620 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Travilah. 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 Travilah 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 Travilah 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 Travilah 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.
