“Taylor was wonderful with my older dog. He took excellent care of him and made sure he was comfortable. Taylor took him on walks and runs and ensured he was happy in our absence. I would use him again.”
“Santiago took such great care of our dogs over the weekend! He sent us tons of picture updates, gave them lots of playtime, and left our house cleaner than we left it. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands and would absolutely recommend him!”
“Keidy was amazing with our two dogs Izzy and Pippin! We had a super unusual request and she helped us out on our wedding weekend making sure the pups were well taken care of! She rolled with the punches and I can tell the dogs had a wonderful time with her.”
“It is hard to imagine a more caring and committed house sitter/care giver than Dylan. I am so glad to be able to rely upon her when travelling for work or pleasure. From drop ins to multi-night absences, Dylan has it covered.”
“Isabella was great staying with our three pups! It’s hard for us to board outside of the house all together, and Isabella graciously came to stay with them over the weekend we were gone. She provided daily updates and the pups were all healthy and happy when we got home. We will definitely be reaching back out to her next time we’re out of town!”
“Katavah is so professional and caring for our dogs. She knows them and they know her and are so comfortable with her. Katavah takes such good care of our dogs and is so great about keeping us updated about their care. We highly recommend Katavah.”
“Madison saved my birthday trip when my previous sitter cancelled at the last minute!!! She was an absolute gem and I immediately trusted her to take the best care of my boys. One of them needed medications in the morning and evening as well as subcutaneous fluid therapy a couple times during the stay. Madison handled all of that super well! And when my baby was having issues Madison let me know right away and took superb care of him while I got on the way back home. I'm forever grateful to Madison and cannot thank her enough for all that she did for my babies <3. Also she took the CUTEST pictures I've ever gotten from a sitter before. Thank you, Madison!”
“Colleen did a fantastic job taking care of our boys. Both are pretty high needs in very different ways. One needs medication on the clock, twice a day. The other is young, high energy and wants constant attention. Colleen was stellar! We came home to happy pups and a clean house!!! She is mature, respectful, communicates wonderfully, and asks questions. We felt so confident and relaxed while on our trip knowing she was there. I highly recommend Colleen to care for your animals and your home.”
About: Animals have always been my biggest passion, and caring for them brings immense joy to my life. With over a year of hands-on experience in pet sitting, I am dedicated to providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your furry family members. I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pets. Whether it's playtime, long walks, or just cozy cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am looking forward to dedicating myself even more to this work and building wonderful connections with both pets and their owners! I work during the day, but my schedule allows me to seamlessly fit pet care into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. I am also available for house sitting, meaning I can stay right at your home to keep your pets company and maintain their routine while you are away. Whether it is morning/evening walks, feeding times, or overnight stays, I ensure your pets receive consistent attention and care. Safety, cleanliness, and trust are my absolute top priorities. Coming from a background in childcare as a nanny, I am highly vigilant, responsible, and observant. I am also a very meticulous person when it comes to cleanliness and organization, meaning your pet will always be in a hygienic, hazard-free, and safe environment. I always ensure that doors and gates are secure, dangerous items are out of reach, and pets are closely supervised both indoors and during walks. You can trust that I will protect and care for your furry family member just as carefully as I would a child.
“We needed to leave in a hurry to attend a family funeral and, being new to town, didn't know where to turn. I'd heard good things about Rover, so that's where I turned. Thankfully, we lucked out with Alicia H. She housesat our two dogs for three nights and when we returned, our pets were happy, healthy, and well taken care of. She also sent photos on a daily basis, which reassured us, and was very responsive to all requests and messages. Phew! Would gladly hire her again.”
“Sarah took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. She sent us several check-ins along the way and was especially thoughtful with one of our dogs who gets anxious during thunderstorms. She also left our house neat and tidy. We'd definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: Hi, I'm Emely! I’m a dependable and attentive pet and house sitter who truly loves animals! I understand how important it is to leave your pets and home in the right hands, so I treat both with care, respect, and attention to detail. Whether it’s keeping your pet on their routine, giving them extra love and playtime, or making sure your home is just as you left it, I’ve got it covered. You can relax knowing everything is safe, clean, and well cared for while you’re away :) I am a freelance writer and work from home! So I have plenty of time and flexibility to tend to your fur buddies and take them on walks multiple times of day. I follow your pet’s routine closely and prioritize a safe, clean environment at all times. I respect your home, monitor your pet’s well-being, and provide updates so you feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, when I started my own little pet-sitting/walking "business" in my small town in Arizona. As an adult, I've owned and trained two dogs of my own, and I've never stopped being around animals since. Whether it's giving them plenty of pets & cuddles, keeping them active, or making sure they feel comfortable & secure, my biggest priority is providing a safe, loving experience for every pet in my care. I just recently moved to Colorado and I'm excited to grow my connection with you! I'm currently working as a writer (published author) and editor for other aspiring authors. I love spending a few hours in the morning and in the afternoon working on my laptop and developing my craft! I'm both a morning and evening person:) I take care of pets in their home so they can stay in the environment they’re most comfortable and familiar with. I love following detailed routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention & cuddles. I also ensure they have a clean, safe environment and never feel alone or neglected while you are away. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, (whether they're excited or a bit nervous) I love catering to their needs & preferences. My goal is to give them the kind of care they’re used to receiving at home!
“Chelsea did 4 nights of overnight sitting in our home with our Goldendoodle Chance. I appreciated that she did a meet and greet prior to the overnight booking. This allowed Chance to know who she was when she arrived on the first evening after work. She updated with pictures each day and a short description of any news from the day. Definitely recommend and will book again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I am currently a full time student without a flexible schedule. I don’t have a job, so I have plenty of availability for your dogs. I have a dog back home who is truly my best friend, and I miss him so much while I’m away. I’ve always absolutely loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I would love to play with your dogs, take them on walks, and give them lots of love and attention. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and never lonely while you’re away!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wheelman
Kristen was great! You can tell right away from meeting her that she is a total dog person and the animals love her! She stayed at our place for the week with our dog and took great care of her! You could tell Kristen did everything she could to keep the doggo in her normal routine. She was communicative and sent photos and asked clarifying questions where needed. She left the house clean. Would recommend!
Yolanda is a gem. It’s always hard for us to find someone we feel we can trust will look after our animals with the same level of attention and love that we provide. Yolanda clearly loves animals. Beyond that, she clearly has a special gift with them. Our 2 lgd dogs and needy cat fell in love with her! It was clear she gave them a lot of time and attention. She was also very communicative with us, and made sure to follow our instructions. Everything was in perfect order upon our return from our extended stay abroad. We are so glad we found Yolanda and look forward to having her pet sit for us again - we know the animals would love that as well!
I am so so very pleased with the service Jai provided for us. While watching our two cats, crested and fat tail geckos, my freshwater aquariums, and my garden, Jai provided multiple daily updates with photos. They were also very responsive. They left my home spotless and my kitties were very happy. Highly highly recommend!!!!

The average cost of House Sitting in Wheelman is $77 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $115 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Wheelman 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 Wheelman 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Wheelman 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.
