“Alyssa was so great with bear who as never been left before! She was so responsive and sent detailed updates my house was clean and so well kept could not be happier with Alyssa! Thank you!!”
“I help rescue and foster special needs dogs, those physically or mentally abused. While helping Sadie as a temporary foster, no one in the rescue group was willing to take care of her. So, I decided to add her to my family. I say this because I need someone that understand how to care for Sadie emotional needs. From the very first time Sadie and I met Jordyn, we knew she would be the perfect sitter when I travel for work. Jordyn gave so much love to Sadie while I was gone that I was able to focus on work and not worry about Sadie. Jordyn was amazing sending me updates and photos!! When I travel for work in the future Jordyn will be the only person I call to take care of Sadie.”
“Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!
“Mark is a great sitter that my family has used twice now! The animals love Mark and I'm always getting updates with pictures of them for peace of mind. Absolutely recommend for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve been around any and all types of dogs since a young age. I am a future physical therapist assistant who is dependable, skilled in safety, and fun! My schedule is currently flexible between ending my school program and taking my licensure exam. I am a caretaker through and through and am eager to spread some of that love to dogs. Spending a summer with animals and outside is a dream! I am keen to follow instructions precisely, ask questions, and when in doubt, always go for the safest route. My priorities are always safety and comfort ability in regards to humans AND animals!
“Hannah was outstanding. Our schedule changed slightly at last moment and Hannah changed her schedule to accommodate and arrive to our home and be with Harley soon after we had to leave. Hannah kept us up to date and posted lots of photos of our beloved Dog Harley as well as all the walks and loving she provided. We came home to Happy puppy and very clean home. Hannah was awesome and we look forward to having her sit with our dog again in the future.”
“Kylee is very knowledgeable and experienced with animals. She was flexible and accommodating with my pets' various needs (2 dogs and 2 cats, 2 of whom are senior with health conditions and special dietary and supplement needs). Everything was kept clean and she was communicative throughout. All of our pets were happy and relaxed upon our return. I highly recommend Kylee and her team!”
“Shiloh was absolutely great! She took such good care of our fur babies and kept our house just as we had left it. She even stayed an extra night when our flight home got canceled without any hesitation. We are so grateful and I would highly recommend her services!”
“Danielle did an amazing job with our boys! She kept us informed of how they were doing. Great communication and we would be happy to have her stay here again. Highly recommended!!!”
“Toby is super punctual, dependable, kind, and caring. Toby watched my 9 week old puppy twice, and he was very loving and patient. During the time he stayed at my house, he not only watched my puppy for several hours, but also played with him and fed him per my instructions. I highly recommend Toby to take care of any pets. Toby is a spectacular pet sitter and an amazing human being.”
“Becca is a very responsible, trusting, kind caregiver. She took care of our two dogs for 8 days in our home and we returned to very well cared for happy dogs and a very well cared for home. We have always boarded our dogs and this was our first time using a in-home service. We couldn’t have had a better experience. I’ve already asked Becca if she is available for two more of our upcoming trips this year. 5 stars”
“Cynthia and Judith were amazing dog sitters and people! They helped my family, and my pup, Candy, out in a bind. Cynthia and Judith took care of my pup like she was their own. They checked in with me daily, sent pictures, and followed all of my instructions. My pup has been going through some health issues recently, and Cynthia and Judith put me and Candy at ease. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!”
“Indre was the best sitter I could have asked for. Not only was it short notice, but I also returned early in the morning. She sent messages throughout the day, asked all about Sadie to make sure she knew all the specifics, and sent many photos. Indre took amazing care of my old dog and really treated her like her own. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Megan was amazing! We've never had a more understanding sitter. Even after our plans changed (too many times to count), Megan was awesome and helpful and extremely responsive. We got tons of photos and the dogs looked very happy. Definitely book her!”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful watching Mika and Lilly! She was so personable and sweet from the first time we met so she could meet the dogs before we left and then was wonderful about providing updates on the dogs throughout our trip! Definitely recommend and will definitely use again!”

Kaitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone for the long weekend. My cat has a special wet food diet, and she was able to feed him on time every day. My cat is very social, and she spent time visiting with him. Shared photos and videos during every visit. I will be hiring her again!!!!
Lauren was great! She was dependable, communicative and conscientious. We were gone for 6 days and she looked after our home and our little buddy. She sent us a cute pic or video almost everyday day which made me smile and feel secure that he was cared for and having fun. We would like to have her back next time! 😃

FAQs for House Sitting - Trout Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Trout Valley on Rover is $66.6 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 2,612 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Trout Valley. 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 Trout Valley 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 Trout Valley 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 Trout Valley 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
