“We couldn’t be happier with the care Julie provided for our three dogs. Her responsiveness to our emails and texts along with being very conscientious to our pets’ needs gave us peace of mind while we were away. The dogs were happy, healthy and most importantly, safe, when we returned home. We have already booked her for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Julie if you want a responsible, caring pet sitter.”
“I highly recommend Gracyn! She is very easy to communicate with and so thoughtful. We loved the daily pup-dates and photos! Her responses were always timely and the whole experience was seamless. We will definitely book with Gracyn in the future 🎉”
About: Animals and animal care has always been my passion, I’m currently working towards getting my bachelors degree in animal science and zoology! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals and I’ve done a lot of rescue and rehoming! I love animals, from cats to fish, lizards and birds. I’m crazy about all of them. I’ve cared for babies and elderly of a lot of different species and I pride myself in always doing my best in taking care of all their needs. Ive got quite a few of my own babies at the moment but they’re all very friendly and adjust easily to new animals. I don’t currently work because I’m working towards getting my bachelors degree in animal science/zoology, so I’m home 24/7 to care for my own pets and school, I have two crate trained dogs, four cats, two frogs, two birds, fish, and a hamster, so I’m basically always cleaning and playing or training one or the other! While I live in an apartment, we have multiple fenced dog parks and ample walking area away from the roads for walkies with the dogs, my apartment is pretty spacious especially in the living room and animals are allowed around the whole apartment. If I were to watch your babies at your residence I would stick strictly to the rules you set for me and never overstep your boundaries or rules.
“Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of our Alaskan Malamute and cat. She took the dog on walks daily, gave him a tone of attention, and I didn’t have to worry for a second while we were gone on vacation. Came back home to a clean house with laundry done. We will definitely be reaching out again when we are out of town.”
“Thanks, once again, Carla, for taking care of our home and the excellent care of Little Bear. It’s was so relaxing to know that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. It made our trip so much more fun. 🤩”
About: I've taken care of animals all my life. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember; they're part of the family. I worked as a veterinary assistant, giving medical care to dogs and cats. I'm comfortable giving medications and caring for pets with special needs. I have two dogs and a cat of my own. Sansa, my Golden Retriever; Romeo, my chiweenie; and Serafina, my calico kitty. I also raised several litters of Golden Retriever puppies over the years, so I have lots of experience with tiny puppies and kittens too. I love my fur babies dearly and would love to care for your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. 🐾 I work part time so I have plenty of time to care for your sweet pets. I’m available to care for pets during the week and on weekends. In your home, I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible: mealtimes, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little habits that keep them comfortable. Pets feel safest in their own familiar space, so I'll keep their environment calm, clean, and consistent while you're away. You can expect photo updates, quick communication if anything ever seems off, and a tidy home when you return. Your trust means everything to me. I’ll look after your pets and your home as if they were my own. 🐾
“Lori was great with my dog Emma! She was very attentive to Emma's schedule, routine and needs. Lori was on time and sent pictures of Emma each day. The feedback was great. Also, Lori did a great job of taking the sheets of the bed and straightening up the house even though this was not expected. Would definitely hire Lori again to house sit and watch my dog, Emma!”
“Catherine did a great job watching Nacho! She sent informative updates to us and quickly let us know us if anything went awry. She followed all of our instructions and also went the extra mile to do helpful things around the house, like take out the trash and strip the linens at the end of her stay. She was friendly and easy to communicate with the whole way. We’d definitely have her watch our dog again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals, specifically dogs and cats since I was younger. I own a cat but have really loved and trained my own dogs in the past. Can spoil and can also train if wanted. I do work at a retirement home as a home care aide so my hours can somewhat vary but if I can make it work I will 100%. If my partner could be a “testimonial” he’d say I geek out and have to pet every dog (if the owner looks tolerant of that of course haha) that we pass by. Let me know exactly how you want your lul baby taken care of or any quirks I should be aware of ;) and I will make sure to follow whatever guidelines/instructions are set :). I’m currently working part time and I love animals. I have a spicy sweetheart black cat who is spoiled but still has his rules, not that he likes to listen to em ;) haha. I need notice for overnight sitting and such just so I can arrange my other schedule around it :). When overnight sitting I can do extra services like dog walking, play time, potty breaks, cuddles, and treats if allowed ;). I’m good w crate training as well for the dogs that need their safe space and will also let them cuddle with me if it’s an overnight and they’re the clingy type :). Genuinely just love dogs and cats, especially dogs though, too pure for this world <3
“Makenna did an amazing job house sitting and watching our chihuahua and aussie. She was great at communication and very flexible. I appreciated her taking the aussie last minute as plans fell through. We will definitely be using Makenna again!!”

We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Rachel! She stayed at our home for five nights while we were out of the country, and her communication was excellent the whole time. She regularly sent photos and videos of our puppy, Lucy, which we loved getting. Best of all, we felt completely at ease knowing Lucy was getting all the attention and care she needed. Rachel gave us the peace of mind to relax and enjoy our trip. We'd happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or house sitter.
Vanessa went above and beyond to help our younger pup adjust to the loss of his big brother (who passed only a few days before our trip) while we were away. Before leaving the house, she gave him a frozen treat ball, and walked him twice daily. She even walked him with a friendly, neighbor dog so he’d have some fur companion time. Additionally, she surprised us by washing her bedding and towels! We truly appreciate Vanessa’s energy and efforts, especially given our circumstances.
We had Emma house-sit and care for our 9 year-old Duck Tolling Retriever, Tillie, for nearly 3 weeks, while we were overseas. This was the first time we hired her and were very pleased. I left detailed notes/instructions for Emma re feeding, potty and walking schedules, which she carefully followed. As requested, she happily let Tillie sleep on our bed with her and provided occasional email updates and photos. Emma collected and organized all of our mail, newspapers and packages. Also, as instructed, she listened to messages left on our phone and wrote down the date, person calling, phone number and subject matter for us to easily review upon returning. We arrived home to a very clean home. Without asking, Emma had cleaned the guest bathroom she had used, washed the sheets and put them back on our bed, washed towels, vacuumed all carpets and cleaned the kitchen counters and any dishes used. I highly recommend Emma and will definitely have her house and dog-sit for us in the future. She is friendly, trustworthy, and dependable. Perhaps, most important, she bonded well with Tillie and gave her lots of love and walks. My condo neighbors who interacted with Emma were very complimentary, too
Macie was so amazing! We had an incident with our house keys and she was so patient while we called a locksmith. She took pictures of our dogs in the yard while she was there and kept us apprised of any issues she had with them. Our dogs took to her very easily and we will have her back for our next trip. Highly recommended! 🥰
Allison (Rae) took incredible care of both my dog and my sister’s pup over the Fourth of July weekend! She walked and played with them a lot and made them both comfortable despite their separation anxieties. She left the house spotless and even ran a load of dishes! I would definitely have her house and dogsit for me again!
Hailee was awesome! She was very attentive when We first picked her to take care of our Rudy. She sent pictures of Rudy out walking with her. She left the house very clean, Rudy said he really liked Hailee taking care of him:) We will definitely ask her again in the future. Thank you Hailee!!
I am so grateful for Kimarie. She was amazing with my two senior dogs Lulu and Ruby. If I couldn’t be with them, I would choose Kimarie to care for them. I highly recommend Kimarie to anyone looking for a responsible dog/house sitter that you can completely trust! Much thanks to Kimarie!

The average cost of House Sitting in Veradale is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $66 per night.

As of October 2026, there are 747 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Veradale. 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 Veradale 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 Veradale 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 Veradale 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.
