“Erika cared for my cat, Roxy, in my home for an extended stay, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. She was reliable, communicative, and attentive to Roxy’s routines. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a well-kept house. I have already booked her again and would confidently recommend her to others.”
“Our pups were happy to see Kathryn again, and we so appreciated her friendliness, care, and clear communication — including pup pics while we were away! She’s attentive to their individual needs and is always ready to hear what may have changed with their care since her last visit. We’ll definitely look to Kathryn to stay with the pups in the future!”
“It was a pleasure having Deborah sit with our 14 year old pup Dexter. Deborah quickly responded to our initial inquiry and met with Dex and I shortly afterwards. She communicated the day before her scheduled sit and arrived promptly at an agreed upon time. She asked all the appropriate questions about feeding, Dexter's daily routine, and what she could do to keep him comfortable during our absence. Deborah communicated during her sit to let us know that all was well. We returned to a happy dog and a tidy house. Would recommend Deborah and we will be using her services again.”
“Lucinda is a trusted house sitter and did a great job of looking after my 15 year old dog. And kept my home spotless. I already have her booked for a third dog sitting opportunity. Highly recommend Lucinda.”
“Adrianna took wonderful care of our two dogs, Wrigley and Darby, over the Fourth of July while staying in our home. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We came home to two content pups and a well-looked-after house. We highly recommend Adrianna and would absolutely trust her to care for Wrigley and Darby again!”
“Lisa is simply the best there is. She's kind, responsive, clean, and most importantly has the ability to connect with even cranky old geriatric cats. Our cat loves her. I think she is mildly disappointed when we come home. I could not recommend Lisa highly enough!”
“Bryanna was absolutely wonderful with our fur babies! We got updates regularly and lots of photos. We really appreciated that she asked questions when needed instead of assuming or winging it, and she really put the needs of our pets first. We feel confident leaving the fur babies in her hands and we will be rebooking with her very soon!”
“Alyssa is AMAZING!!! 5 stars is not enough. Great communication and very punctual. My cat absolutely loved her and I felt safe knowing Alyssa was there while traveling.”
“Rachel was the best! We were so glad she was available to help us out rather last minute. She was very loving and responsible with taking care of our old man who has some health issues. She updated us daily, which we very much appreciated. She helped our dog with his anxiety when neighbors set off firecrackers. She went above and beyond and even watered my yard, flowers and garden on a very hot weekend. House was very clean and tidy when we got home too. Made coming home so much nicer. Can’t praise or thank her enough♥️”
“Jacques is sweet, but can be a challenge. Cheryl made me feel like I could enjoy my time while I was gone and I knew he was in exceptional hands. I knew she cared genuinely to always do what was best for him, and I know he loved every minute of that attention he got from her.”
“Emma is a great dog sitter. She was punctual, kept me well informed throughout, and regularly sent pictures and updates, which gave me real peace of mind. She also left the house clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Jami’s 1st time with our German Shepherd was great ! She kept in contact via text and pictures and the house was kept clean despite his shedding. Our older shepherd is picky and she passed the test . Thank you Jami we will be in touch !”
“Chardonay and Ben were fantastic with our pups! They gave updates throughout the day with lots of photos. I felt very comfortable leaving my reactive pup in their care. Both puppies were tired when we got home and the house was so tidy!”
“Lynden was wonderful and my pets were very happy when I got home. I especially appreciated that she took Kirby for a run… Kirby loves to run, and I am sure Lynden was faster than me. Definitely will have her back!”
“Elizabeth was awesome. She took care of our 85lb lab Henry for three days and stayed in our home. Everything was great, she quickly learned Henry's routines and took great care of the house. Just peace of mind for me having Elizabeth there!!”
“Dani was great and just what we were looking for! She honored all of her commitments re: updates on the pups and when she needed to come and go. We would def book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Slope
Teaghan is amazing!! My trip was 10 days and I had never before been away from my cats for more than a few days, but her daily updates put me at ease. It was apparent from the start they really loved her. I'm so grateful for all the love and care she provided them. I came home to calm, happy kitties. I will book with her again in the future!
We had to leave our 6 month old puppy to attend a family rehearsal dinner and wedding just 4 days after his neuter surgery. Mckenna came to the rescue. She stayed with little Finn for 6 hours the evening of the dinner and 8 hours the next day for the wedding. She did a great job dealing the Finn's feeding, meds and potty walks. Things were complicated somewhat because he had to wear a cone collar, the "cone of shame". Mckenna was very responsive to our needs. Every time we needed to talk with her she got back to us in an instant. On the first night, we were running a little late and she cheerfully stayed an extra hour. We would definitely use Mckenna again.
Tatiana was incredibly responsive and provided regular updates of our puppy and cat. She also was able to help administer oral meds to our fussy cat and manage our high-energy puppy while leaving our house in a cleaner state than we left it. We’d definitely rebook with her.
Adrianna took wonderful care of our two dogs, Wrigley and Darby, over the Fourth of July while staying in our home. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We came home to two content pups and a well-looked-after house. We highly recommend Adrianna and would absolutely trust her to care for Wrigley and Darby again!
Lisa was an amazing sitter for our Frank and Sugar. She was such a good communicator and provided regular updates and photos and put my mind at ease. She took amazing care of the house as well, which as a homeowner, I I really appreciated. Just to have the peace of mind of both the fur babies and the home being cared for in a loving way I highly highly recommend Lisa.
Tasha was perhaps the best sitter we have ever had for Onion. She helped him attend our wedding and was so attentive and detailed and caring… it was genuinely unbelievable. If it weren’t for her, the day would have been so much more difficult, and she allowed us to include my best bud into the ceremony seemlessly. 100% recommend, Tasha is the absolute best!!!
Stephanie and Alex are true pros. We just finished a week-long house sitting with them. They were responsive from the very start. Daily updates and photos. House looked great. Two dogs and cat were happy and relaxed when we got home. Reliable and clearly experienced with animals. We would absolutely book them again and would have no hesitation recommending them.
Maria was great. She sent lots of pictures and shared stories of our cats. She left the house spotless. We really appreciated coming home to a clean house. We appreciated her thoughtfulness while we were on vacation. We came home to happy cats. We highly recommend Maria!

FAQs for House Sitting - West Slope
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in West Slope on Rover is $58.85 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 4,569 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Slope. 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 West Slope 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 West Slope 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 West Slope 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
