“Excellent. Transparent. Responsible. I was amazed at how well Nina took care of our little mutt. This was our first time trying her services and I’m not gonna lie, I was stressed about leaving our “kid” and our home in the hands of a total stranger. Nina was so prompt and so communicative the entire time that she put me right at ease. Brilliant. We could not have been luckier to chance upon her profile on Rover.”
“Donovan stayed at our house for 4 days to pet sit. He is responsible, reliable and dependable. He followed our schedule and was respectful of our home. Kenzi loved him.”
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I've spent over a decade caring for pets and volunteering at animal shelters, and I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and figuring out what makes them feel comfortable and happy. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, and more, including senior pets and pets with medical or behavioral needs. At the shelter, I've taught classes on handling small animals, trained new volunteers, and worked as a camp counselor teaching kids how to safely interact with animals. I've also received extensive training in animal body language, behavior, and safe handling. I grew up with dogs and a rabbit and now have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets while you're away. My apartment won't let me have any more pets, so I'd love the chance to give yours some extra love and attention! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I'm a graduate student, so my schedule looks different each day, but is more flexible than the typical 9-to-5! I build pet care into my weekly routine and have availability throughout the day. I'm happy to work with you to find times that fit your schedule and your pet's needs! Whether you need drop-in visits or overnight petsitting, I'm happy to provide the type of care that works best for your pet. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, respect your home, and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I prioritize safety, communication, and getting to know each pet’s individual needs.
“Nevaeh did a wonderful job watching my little dogs! She was caring, professional and kind! She followed all of my instructions and she even took my trash bins in from the outside on trash day. My older dog wouldn’t go upstairs to the guest room with her so instead of leaving him alone downstairs she chose to sleep downstairs with him which was very sweet. Everything was left perfectly clean and Punky and Wilbur were so well taken care of and happy. Thank you so much for your excellent care, Nevaeh!!”
“Keidy was amazing with our two dogs Izzy and Pippin! We had a super unusual request and she helped us out on our wedding weekend making sure the pups were well taken care of! She rolled with the punches and I can tell the dogs had a wonderful time with her.”
“Jacob did great with our dog and cat! He was communicative and flexible, met our dog beforehand, and spent a lot of time with our animals. Our dog developed a limp the day before we left for our trip and Jacob was happy to follow the ver instructions and administer pills. He sent updates and photos each day. We would absolutely have Jacob care for our pets again.”
“Aislinn was absolutely amazing! She was so easy to work with and took wonderful care of my dog, Elle. Elle has special needs, and Aislinn gave her all the love, attention, and support she required including managing her medication flawlessly. Her communication was top-notch throughout the stay. On top of that, she left my home completely spotless, which shows just how respectful and attentive she is. I will definitely be booking her again”
“Tigran was a great dog caregiver. He shared some of his knowledge about dogs and He is a great communicator and quickly responded to all contacts. He provided daily photos of his walks with my dog and reached out as needed for clarity around house and dog needs. Tigran was respectful of our home and able to manage some complex house events while we were away. I would happily employ Tigran again.”
“We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! Lindsay helped us out last minute over a holiday weekend- she was just lovely. Responsive, kind, and very attentive to our 1 yr old puppy. We hope to have her back soon!”
“August was great! He sent regular updates, was extremely responsive, and was the perfect balance of warm and professional. Knowing he was giving our pup the attention and care he needed while we were away gave us valuable piece of mind. He left the house in excellent shape and took care of things like trash while we were gone. I highly recommend August and will be booking with him again.”
“Megan was an outstanding dog-cat-house sitter. She kept our dog and cat happy and safe over a 4 day period. She was a respectful and considerate guest in our home, leaving everything meticulously clean and in its place! We received wonderful pictures and updates of what our pets were up to. You can tell that Megan has a kind heart in the way she treats animals and people. I would absolutely rebook her the next time we have a need and recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
“Madison saved my birthday trip when my previous sitter cancelled at the last minute!!! She was an absolute gem and I immediately trusted her to take the best care of my boys. One of them needed medications in the morning and evening as well as subcutaneous fluid therapy a couple times during the stay. Madison handled all of that super well! And when my baby was having issues Madison let me know right away and took superb care of him while I got on the way back home. I'm forever grateful to Madison and cannot thank her enough for all that she did for my babies <3. Also she took the CUTEST pictures I've ever gotten from a sitter before. Thank you, Madison!”
“Colleen did a fantastic job taking care of our boys. Both are pretty high needs in very different ways. One needs medication on the clock, twice a day. The other is young, high energy and wants constant attention. Colleen was stellar! We came home to happy pups and a clean house!!! She is mature, respectful, communicates wonderfully, and asks questions. We felt so confident and relaxed while on our trip knowing she was there. I highly recommend Colleen to care for your animals and your home.”
About: I have had 4 dogs since I was twelve years old, 2 German shepherds and two Yorkie/Pomeranians so familiar with different breeds. I have also lived with cats and love all animals! My partner and I are going to get a dog of our own soon but in the meantime I spend lots of time with our friends doggies! I am a PhD student & work from home so can accommodate flexible schedules, and stay home during the days with your pets. My schedule is very flexible and I can fit any dog into my daily or weekly routine. I work remotely and part-time so looking to hang out with more pet friends! I frequently check to ensure there is enough water and feed dogs according to their schedules. I let them out when they have to use the bathroom and walk them 1-2 times a day. But each pet is different so may need to adjust the schedule accordingly!
“Kelly was wonderful about keeping us updated and gave our pup plenty of exercise! Our house was just like when left it when we got back from our week trip. We would highly recommend Kelly!”

Claire was great! She took great care of our dogs and sent cute pictures. They seemed very content with her. Our old semi-feral kitty even came in for some pets. She changed the sheets and the house was clean which is so great after a long trip and jetlag. Definitely recommend!
Elena recently stayed at our home recently for a week with our 7 year old samoyed. This was our first time so we were nervous however she was amazing both with photos and updates. And our dog absolutely adored her. Highly recommend and will we will for sure use her again
We had a medical emergency on our trip. August was totally flexible and supportive as we made our way through the changes in schedule that occurred. It felt as if we had a member of the family helping us out as there was no question about his being there as long as necessary. He checked in often, with reassuring comments. As for our girl Daisy, he kept us informed with wonderful photos of their adventures. August is an excellent photographer! When we arrived home, Daisy was only minimally excited and went to the front door looking for August! Highly recommend! There are not enough words to explain how confident we are in August's kind and good care.
Jacob did great with our dog and cat! He was communicative and flexible, met our dog beforehand, and spent a lot of time with our animals. Our dog developed a limp the day before we left for our trip and Jacob was happy to follow the ver instructions and administer pills. He sent updates and photos each day. We would absolutely have Jacob care for our pets again.
Brian did a great job taking care of our kitty for 3 weeks. He stayed at our home for this period. Our kitty was clearly well taken care of. When we got home she was very calm and content. She clearly received plenty of play time and positive attention. Brian also helped us with a few unplanned events which gave us piece of mind while we were away. We will look forward to using his services again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Valmont is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $84 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.

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 Valmont 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 Valmont 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Valmont 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.
