“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Catherine! She stayed at our home and cared for our dog Kai, and from the moment we left, we felt completely at ease. Catherine is the kind of pet sitter every dog parent dreams of finding — attentive, warm, and genuinely passionate about the animals in her care. Kai absolutely adored her. We received regular updates, photos, and check-ins throughout our time away, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear that Catherine didn't just "watch" Kai — she loved on him, kept his routine consistent, and made sure he felt safe and comfortable the entire time. Our home was also left in perfect condition, which speaks volumes about the kind of person Catherine is. Trustworthy, responsible, and truly caring — she's a rare find. We will absolutely be booking her again and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family. Thank you, Catherine — Kai misses you already! 🐾”
About: My childhood was surrounded by dogs. When I was 12, I had to completely take care of 4 pit bulls, a Dotson, a mixed breed medium sized dog, and 3 cats. I have watched a few friends and family's pets over the years. Before I moved here, I actually helped my cousin take care of his senior husky with low energy that needed shots for a medical condition and a 2 year old German shepherd with all the energy in the world. My foster mom also bred pugs for a living, and have had to help the momma pug give birth while my foster parents were gone. I also have a 4 year old female Black Mouth Cur named Ava, that I have had since 6 months old, and a 2 year old male pitbull terrier rescue named Bosco, that I have had for a year and counting. He is full of fear and needs a lot of patience to work through it, but after 5 months of touch and go work, he now knows what play is and has his own toys! He also is scared to eat or seems to not know what his feeding bowl is, but after different ways to show that feeding time is okay, he is slowly gaining the weight he should be at! Treats were his sweet spot for knowing it is a safe place, and my sweet Ava sped the process for getting him comfortable in his new home and now commandeers my clothing to sleep with in his bed. Due to Bosco being a rescue and has become very protective is why I can't offer in home sitting in my home but am open to dog sitting at client's homes. I am currently a new stay at home mom. I take care of my two boys and my two fur babies. I am more than ready to help others with their fur babies. Due to behavior of one of my dogs, I would not be able to comfortably care for your fur babies in my own home, but I will do the utmost care for your fur babies in your home! Give me all the rules you need followed; Outside during certain times, feeding strategies, don't sit in a certain spot or area in the home. Nothing is too much to handle! I have even taken care of dogs with potty issues and needed baths for their health care and hygiene of your home.
“Tyler is a great sitter! I was fortunate that he was available on very short notice. He came to meet my 3 dogs and was up to the level of care I expected. He is very good with communicating and unafraid to ask questions. I believe he took great care of the dogs because they were fine when I came home and there wasn't anything unusual in their behavior.”
“Michael is the perfect sitter! He gave us regular updates, managed our dog’s reactivity with patience and skill, and was very accommodating to our requests. Big thanks to Michael we were able to have a stress-free and relaxing vacation knowing our dog was in good hands.”
“Megan did an absolutely outstanding job. All of our pets immediately fell in love with her. She kept us posted with photos and we could see they were happy and cared for the whole time. Megan is very professional and we intend to use her next time we go out of town. 😁”
“Angie took care of our Havanese! She stayed at the house for 3 days, 2 nights. She is very caring to dogs and the house was clean and tidy when we returned. Thank you Angie!”
“Mariana is wonderful. She is a natural with animals. During our trip she kept us updated with pics of our pup and was a breeze to communicate with. She left our house in excellent condition! We will definitely be using Mariana in the future. So grateful for her excellent service!!”
“Miranda did a fantastic job with my Dax. Was worried about leaving my boy with just anybody but Miranda gave me daily updates and this really put my mind at ease and was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying how my Dax was doing. I needed to stay an extra day and this was not a problem for Miranda. I would recommend Miranda to anyone who needs a sitter. I’ll be using her again in a couple of weeks”
“Rachel was fantastic from the beginning: communication was easy, my dog was super comfortable during the pre-booking meet and greet, and the sitting went flawless. I’ll definitely try to book again next time!”
“Viviva was fantastic with my dog while I was away. She’s dependable, kind, and truly attentive. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup in her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter.”
“Renee was so amazing and will definitely use her again. She took care of our girls very well, walking them 2-3 times each day and giving them lots of attention. Made me feel at peace knowing our dogs got the care they needed. She also watered some of my plants, and without asking took our trash out so we didn’t miss the pickup. Thank you Renee!”
“Kinan was a perfect house guest and pup sitter. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. We can’t say enough good things about him. If you are in need of someone, he is a great choice. We will be using him when we need a pup sitter again.”
“Evan took great care of our 3 year old pointer while we were away for the weekend. He was very thoughtful about letting her get used to him and feel comfortable and made sure she had regular walks. Evan sent us plenty of updates and photos and he was very respectful of our house and left it spotless. We will definitely be booking Evan again and highly recommend him.”
“Alejandra took such great care of our pittie Big Lady. She sent updates and pictures daily. I would highly recommend using Alejandra and we will definitely use her again!”
“Outstanding sitter. Numerous daily pictures, walks, activities. Pets all received lots of love. House in perfect condition upon return. We will absolutely request her to care for our pets and home again!!!”
“We got daily updates on Millie for the almost 2 weeks we were out of town for our wedding. Millie was excited to see Dustin when he arrived, which of course makes us happy and comfortable to see. Thank you for taking such good care of her!!”

Sundance was a happy dog when I returned. He obviously had been treated well--loved, walked, fed and treated like an important being. I was very pleased with Jorge's attentiveness to all the details and would be happy to have him again when I go out of town. The house was also left exactly as I had left it. Folks would be lucky to have him watch their pets. Thank you!
Ashley was wonderful. We very suddenly needed a new sitter for a week, and she graciously agreed to watch our pups. She was very communicative, friendly, and asked thoughtful questions about our home and dogs while she was here. We came home to two very happy pups and a clean house. Highly recommend her, we'd love to work with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Verdi on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Verdi 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 Verdi 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 Verdi 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.

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.
