About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and have taken care of many friend and family dogs and cats. I generally love to spend time with dogs and cats. I love to give them attention, cuddles, and of course belly rubs. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I can house sit anytime between Thursday and Monday. I can walk and check in on your fur baby as many times as needed. I will follow any house rules and general rules you have for your fur baby. I will give your pet all the attention they require and keep them to their routines and habits. You can trust that your pet will be well taken care of while you are away.

About: I currently have three family dogs. Hunter (the youngest but biggest baby), Rocky (the middle child), and Bella (oldest but most sophisticated). All of which require their own routine and specialities since two of them are on the older side. I also have my own pet, Peppa Pig (a guinea pig) who also requires her own little routine. As of right now, I am completely available to take care of your pets needs at any time! Monday-Sunday I available for home check ins and daily walks. I have a car, meaning I can cater to your pets needs at any time of day. Onboarding is currently not a service I offer, but I can ensure you reliability on my end to meet any of your needs.
“I LOVE Mi-Cha-El !! I booked Mi-Cha-El fairly last minute when my original pet care fell through. He responded quickly and was willing to come to my place very soon after connecting in order to meet in person. He is so sweet, reassuring, and calm and you can really see his love for animals. He updated me with pictures and videos and my shy covid cat warmed up to him and they became friends. I will definitely be booking Mi-Cha-El again!! Thank you so much for your care and attention, Mi-Cha-El!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Megan is absolutely wonderful! My timid cat was instantly smitten with her. He usually hides. It's truly heartwarming to see them bond so quickly. She has such a special way with animals, creating a safe and loving environment. I highly recommend her services to any pet parent.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Alexandrea. From the moment we met at the meet-and-greet to the moment we left for our trip, I felt completely at ease knowing our dog, Pipoca, was in her care. She was flexible, working with our flight schedule, and, most importantly, arrived right on time. She treated our home with so much respect, as if it were her own, and her communication throughout the stay was exceptional! She sent frequent updates and always checked with us before making any decisions outside of what we previously agreed on, along with so many adorable photos and videos throughout the day! She even took Pipoca along with her while running errands aka little adventures for our little one, kept her engaged, and it was clear from every update how happy and comfortable Pipoca was with Alexandrea. When we came home, the house was clean and Pipoca was relaxed and happy. I would not hesitate to book Alexandrea again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter.
Michelle was absolutely wonderful with my pup Bruno! As he’s gotten older staying at boarding facilities became anxiety inducing and he had a tendency to become behavioral. After six whole days with Michelle I came back to my happy and relaxed boy who clearly got lots of love and attention. Michelle provided updates and care for not only my pup but my home and a huge peace of mind for my time away. I cannot recommend Michelle enough, I’m beyond grateful and will be booking with her again in the future! Thank you so much Michelle!!
This is the first time I tried “Rover” I was a little concern about having strangers at my house but after we met prior to hire her, I felt so much better. Milan ( my furry baby) loved her, she was very sweet and kept me updated. I will definitely hire her again. Thanks, Deanna!
Jen was absolutely wonderful with Bogart. She is caring and compassionate and a lovely person! She cooked for him and was patient with Bogart's needs as an 18 year-old dog. She was sending me pictures and updates regularly and he was so peppy and happy after spending time with her. I know Bogart would love to spend time with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Vernon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vernon on Rover is $34.71 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 15,002 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vernon. 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 Vernon 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 Vernon 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 Vernon 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vernon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
