“Kat is amazing! She’s incredibly responsive, kind, and always treats our dog with such care and love. We’ve reached out to her last minute a few times, and she’s always been flexible and accommodating. It’s such a relief knowing our pup is in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely kind sitter!”
“Codi was amazing! She took our dog out for an adventure everyday and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was having fun without us. We will definitely use Codi again and would recommend her to anyone!!”
“Megan took such good care of our two girlies. She checked in with us multiple times a day and kept us updated on her comings and going’s. We also got so many cute pictures- we could tell the girls were very happy and getting lots of attention. Will definitely rebook!”
“Jennifer and Champ we amazing staycation friends for my pup, Scout! He was so happy and well cared for while I was gone, and Jennifer's proactive communication and pictures of Scout really helped reassure me that he was in great hands! We can't wait to invite them back next time I need puppy care :D”
“Alyssa stayed with my needy little poodle mix and also my son’s active golden retriever for a long weekend. Both dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we came on and the house was clean and tidy. I would totally have her come again!”
“I wasn't quite sure what to expect with Keleia. She barely said 3 words at our meet-n-greet, so I was a little nervous! But I am very happy I still booked! She was a fantastic communicator over text and always told me when she needed to pop out and was on her way back. She also sent pictures as I asked and my dog looked healthy and content in them. When I arrived home, she had run the dishwasher and changed the bedsheets as I asked, and the house was nice and tidy. My dog also was in good spirits and didn't seem overly relieved I was home after my short absence, so I think he had a great time with her. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ryenne was excellent! She took wonderful care of our dog,Beau, and our home. Great communication and attention to detail. We will definitely ask her to stay with Beau in the future.”
“Cannot recommend Teagan more! She was responsive, timely, and flexible. My flight was delayed by 5 hours and she was able to extend the booking for my elderly dog, which was a big relief for me. Her dog is super sweet as well. :)”
“We came home to happy animals and a very tidy house. Megan was very communicative during the entire stay. Definitely had a peace of mind knowing she was taking care of the fuzzy ones.”
“We felt very at ease having Morgana watch our home and animals for an extended time, and would definitely use her services again in the future. She left our house very nice and our animals very loved.”
“Ashlyn was very responsive and made herself available at the last minute to watch our dog and cat, plus a tortoise and 2 fish. In addition to caring for our sick dog, she also looked after our house, watered our plants and in general came to the rescue at the last minute for us.”
“Great communication and so willing to help with any request. She's so kind and treats our fur baby with love and kindness. We'd use her again in a heartbeat”
“Lauren is the BEST! She stayed at my place and watched my dobie for a week while I was in Italy. She sent me photos of Priya every day, and took care of everything around the house that I asked. She was everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. I will definitely book her again when I travel.”
About: Recently retired professional. I’ve provided a warm & loving home my entire life for our many pets - lap dogs and hunting dogs alike. When you are away, you don’t want to worry about your fur babies. I know all too well the pain of losing a pet in the hands of an inexperienced or irresponsible care taker. I’m dependable, caring and trust worthy. I offer peace of mind for you and in return a few extra bucks for me to supplement retirement. Safe/Secure pet care and house sitting. My schedule is flexible; especially with advance notice. Whether it’s walks and potty breaks or overnight sitting I can usually accommodate any schedule, including the holidays. Although typically we will not board at our home, on occasion we’ll make exceptions depending on the breed and temperament. We have two Shih Tzu’s that are extremely playful and nice with other pets. In your home, I will take care of your pets as you would.
“Jerry was great at sending pictures and updating us on Luna while we were away. He is clearly a dog and animal lover and Luna warmed up to him right away. He left our house clean and was very respectful.”
“Brieanna did a wonderful job taking care of our pets, including 2 cats and a large fish tank. As a house sitter, she kept our home in good order and was great about sending us updates daily so we knew our fur babies were being well taken care of. It made it much easier to enjoy our vacation knowing everything at home was in good hands. She’ll be our first choice for the next trip we plan!”

Kristen did a great job for my two kitties. Right before our trip, my cat Lucy had an medical issue and we found out that she needed medicine. Kristen was able to give her the medicine that she needed. She took care of both cats and the house was tidy when we returned.
Ashlyn was very responsive and made herself available at the last minute to watch our dog and cat, plus a tortoise and 2 fish. In addition to caring for our sick dog, she also looked after our house, watered our plants and in general came to the rescue at the last minute for us.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wauna
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wauna on Rover is $83.25 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 7,330 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wauna. 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 Wauna 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 Wauna 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 Wauna 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.
