“We needed to travel out of the country and one of our biggest concerns was finding the right person to care for our fur baby in our home. Marissa was on time, Dependable, and really helped take that worry off our shoulders. It’s never easy leaving our pet behind, especially when we’re so far from home, but having Marissa made things so much easier. We really appreciate everything she did for us and would absolutely reach out to her again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to look after their pets.”

About: I have worked in pet care for several years now and have worked with cats, dogs, birds, and fish of all ages and level of needs. I am happy to walk, cuddle, play, feed and provide medicine to your beloved pets! I am currently a full time medical student so my best availability would be during evenings and weekends. Currently weekdays are not as free for me. I aim to leave every client’s house just as I entered it. I am very attentive when it comes to providing the best care for your pet, but I also make sure that at the end of my visit I leave a clean space for you to come home to.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats since I was a child. I have cared for animals with additional needs like medication. We also had a wonderful cat that had diabetes so I am comfortable helping with additional needs. I'm currently available for house visits from the morning to the evening. I can't wait to check on your pets and give them the attention they are missing while you're away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all feeding schedules and instructions, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and ensure pets receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I also clean up after pets, monitor their health and behavior, and provide regular updates, photos, and communication to the owner for peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I started highschool. Before becoming a sitter on this app I walked, bathed, feed, and over night stayed with my neighbors, family, and friends dogs of all different breeds big too small. I am prepared to take the stress out of your hands and have some fun with your pets. I am currently a dental student at Midwestern University in Downer Groove. I have class and exams during the week but my schedule is flexible. If I am not at school the rest of my day is based mainly at my apartment studying so I have a bunch of time for your pets. I live in a apartment with one roomate and no pets. I am a very active person so I often go on walks when it’s not to snowy or cold out. I also have cared for pets my whole life and have a very pet friendly apartment that is clean and safe for your pets.

I booked Kailey last minute because my original dog sitter had an emergency come up. I could not be happier with my experience with Kailey! On top of accepting my short-notice request, she was incredibly professional and provided me with just the right amount of updates (and plenty of pictures of Caesar!) Booking a house sitter can sometimes be a stressful experience because you have them taking care of both your house and your pet, but this experience had zero stress whatsoever. I would HIGHLY recommend and would definitely book her again.

Hayley was nothing short of fantastic with our Sophie. Hayley treated her the same way we treat her -and with love & concern. Even our next door neighbors thought Hayley was superb. (When your neighbors like your sitter, you've got a true champion. Perhaps the best way to describe how our Sophie thought about Hayley is, when we got home, Sophie seemed to say, "Hi, guys. Is Hayley coming back?" You just can't complain about someone that gets that type of response from your pet.

It is not easy leaving for us to leave our dog, Achilles but Natalie was a wonderful companion for him while we were away for a week. It went so well, that we also had her come to dog-sit while we took a shorter trip. For both stays, she sent us detailed updates and photos which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to relax while we were away. She was also very respectful of our house while she stayed here. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Valley View

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Valley View is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $89 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 8,065 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Valley View. 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 Valley View 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 Valley View 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 Valley View 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 , 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 .

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Valley View. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
