“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.”
“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!”
“Mia was wonderful to work with. She was patient and gentle with Arya and communicated to us the whole trip. Our girl doesn't like just anyone and it was clear she was very comfortable with Mia. Additionally, she was flexible to add a other booking last minute for us. We will definitely book with her in the future!”
About: I am a nature lover, enjoying a healthy balance between being active and being a homebody. My top qualities are patience, attention to detail, and communication. I work well with anxious pets and senior pets needing extra attention. As a plus, I live with my family who all love and have had pets throughout their lives. I’m currently working part-time Monday through Friday. I usually leave for work at 1:30pm, and return home by 8:00pm. However, I always have at least two people at home so your pets will never be alone (or have to go too long without potty breaks) if you are boarding them here. I am available for boarding any night, and will gladly adjust my weekend plans depending on your pet’s attachment level. I love staying active, and enrichment for any animal is one of my top priorities. I live with my family in a safe and quiet neighborhood within walking distance of a large regional park with plenty of trails. I also have a basement and a large yard to accommodate your loved one’s comfort level. When visiting my clients’ homes I take extra care to adhere to their pets’ routines, habits, and preferences.
“Jenny did a great job taking care of our hound at our house for a few days. She was very communicative, sending updates and pictures, asked good questions about Riley’s routine, and left the house clean. Riley was very well cared for with Jenny!”
“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”
“Orrin does a great job taking care of our dog. When we get home after a day or weekend of Orrin's care, we can tell our dog is happy and had a great time. We can tell a lot about how well our dog was cared for by how anxious he seems when we get home--whenever Orrin was the caretaker, our dog is calm and also tired from all the time they spent together (which says a lot for our Malinois mix). We get the sense Orrin cares about our dog as much as we do, and that means a lot.”
“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!”
“Lauren was responsive and amenable to helping out with changing health (and diet!) needs of our elderly pup. She was great and our dog was clearly well cared for, and our house was nice and clean when we got home. We would definitely leave our pup with Lauren again.”
“Jeffrey was amazing with our 100lb American Akita for 15 days, constantly providing updates and pictures to ease my anxiety leaving my pet and home while out of the country! His experience with animals shines through in the way my Akita immediately fell in love with him. We would highly recommend him for your fur babies, and we look forward to booking with him again!”
“Omar was a house sitter for our dog and cat on relatively short notice due to a sudden death of a close relative. Omar was flexible and communicated very well with us. We greatly appreciated the morning and evening pictures of both pets. Highly recommended and we will be a repeat customer.”
“Tabatha was absolutely perfect!!!! She was prompt for the arrival time, she kept us updated with photos and messages. We felt very relaxed knowing our babies were in good hands!”
About: I have experience with puppies and dogs I have had 2 dogs before a pug and a German Shepard I love taking walks and being outside! I’m a college student but most of my classes are from 9am-12pm so I’m free the rest of the day for whatever your pet needs. I have my own car so I drive a lot and can do homework from my computer. My cats are my number one priority keeping them safe is everything. We always make sure to check for our babies when leaving the house or doing laundry. I’m very careful when it comes to animal Saftey and making sure they are the happiest they can ever be when I’m taking care of them.
“Allison spent the night at our house to watch our dog and cat. We appreciated the meet and greet beforehand. The dog was well taken care of and looked like he got the snuggling he needs in addition to being given his medicines which included an eye cream. Both of our boys were well taken care of and Allison also took good care of the house. We would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Nicole loves cats and you can tell. She gave Mr. Bingley sweet care and attention. She was very good about sending pictures and videos to let me know he was doing well while I was away. There was a stressful situation with the petsitter before her, and Nicole handled it all with grace, professionalism and assurance to me that all was well. That was greatly appreciated. Thanks very much Nicole for taking such good care of Mr. B.”
“My pup had SO much fun with Julia. She is such a sweet and lovely person too which adds to a perfect sitter. We cannot wait to book her again and our pup is just as excited!! Thank you Julia!!!”
“If Manju is available, book her! She was our house sitter and pet sitter for 17 days and we could not have been happier. She sent pictures and videos of our pets everyday and gave updates daily. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and is excited to spend time with them. I am already looking for ways to book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Travilah
Words are inadequate to convey how THRILLED we were with Michele taking care of our VERY social 11 year old kitty. We were hoping to find someone who would spend a lot of time with him -playing and cuddling -and the pictures and videos she sent us confirmed that we had found a gem of a pet sitter! Seeing Yoshi "head bopping" Michele and flopping down next to her told us everything we needed to know and gave us great peace of mind ! Also coming home to an immaculate house after having a VERY bad experience with a previous pet sitter was a joy . Nobody ever wants to come home from a vacation and then have to clean up a mess - our house was absolutely spotless ! We will be using Michele again for sure and can't recommend her highly enough !
Orrin does a great job taking care of our dog. When we get home after a day or weekend of Orrin's care, we can tell our dog is happy and had a great time. We can tell a lot about how well our dog was cared for by how anxious he seems when we get home--whenever Orrin was the caretaker, our dog is calm and also tired from all the time they spent together (which says a lot for our Malinois mix). We get the sense Orrin cares about our dog as much as we do, and that means a lot.
Mia was amazing with our fur baby. Our house was clean and organized. We felt very at ease leaving Chico with Mia knowing that he would be happy and safe. She gave us picture updates every day and was very responsive. We will definitely book Mia again in the future.
Jessica is very responsive and was in tune with my dogs' moods. She stayed overnight with them and didn't leave them during heavy storms when my dogs anxieties were very high. She followed instructions for medication, left my house clean and helped me to feel comfortable her care. I will be using Jessica again.
This was our first time leaving our anxious puppy with a housesitter. Shannon was wonderful! She is so in tune to all things 'dog' and truly put our minds at ease. She was meticulous with his care and schedule, and so warm and affectionate. And our house was perfect. We highly recommend Shannon and can't wait to have her here again!
We rebook Jony anytime we can…his care for our animals (dog, cat, chinchilla, and fish) and communication to us is exceptional. We recently adopted a new cat and his expertise helped us learn a few new things. We have booked him for staying at our home as well as daily drop-ins. Would highly recommend Jony.
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!
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.

FAQs for House Sitting - Travilah
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Travilah on Rover is $46.07 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 10,468 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.

- 96% 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.
