“Thank you again for taking care of my babies! Bailey took great care of them and I appreciate the consistent updates throughout the entire time I was gone with photos and texts.”
“Kristen was AMAZING!! She house sat from Friday-Sunday and took such great care of my dog Swae. She sent constant pictures and updates, which was extremely comforting, and she followed all of my Instructions to a T. It was clear while away and when I returned home that both my fur baby and home we’re well taken care of. Kristen is an extremely considerate caretaker - this could not have been a better experience. I am so grateful and will absolutely be booking again!”
“Kendall did a great job caring for my dogs. They loved her!! She took them on adventures and treated them to pup cups at Starbucks! Yes, my dogs are a little bougie 😊. I highly recommend Kendall to care for your pet(s).”
“Anne took such good care of our babies (and always does!). She sent great updates and when our oldest dog had a red itch spot flare up- she took such good care of her! She also left the house in great condition.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my dogs! I have a senior dog who has a lot of special needs, as well as two younger dogs who need exercise and play time. She did a great job with them! She kept me posted about things. I totally trusted her with my dogs. I would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Regina was wonderful! She took great care of our dog and cat in our home for the weekend. We look for a sitter who can spend a lot of time with our pets and she’s able to do that! She’s professional, conscientious and trustworthy! I recommend her for anyone looking for pet care - 100%.”
“Courtney is an excellent pet sitter! She gives daily updates and responds quickly. She was also able to give our senior dog medication easily. Will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Viviane was a blessing. She accepted our job after another sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was prompt, professional, but extremely personable and very caring with Diesel. She came by a day before the sitting appointment to meet Diesel. He took to her promptly. When she returned to sit with him, he ran to her as if he was her dog. Will definitely be using Viviane again. We would strongly recommend Viviane for your pet sitting needs.”
“Noelani has sat with Diesel on multiple occasions. Diesel runs to her whenever she arrives at the house. He clearly has an attachment to her that reassures us that we have no worries about his welfare and comfort when we are away from home and Noelani is there. We will continue to use Noelani's services in the future.”
“We can't say enough wonderful things about Miranda and the exceptional care she provided for both our home and our senior cat. From the very start, her professionalism, warmth, and dedication were apparent. Miranda kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, giving us total peace of mind while we were away. Beyond her attentive care, she left our home in immaculate condition. We wholeheartedly recommend Miranda to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and reliable house and pet sitter. She exceeded all expectations, and we will absolutely be reaching out to her for future stays!”
“Danielle was awesome with our GSD and two cats. She was very professional and I felt completely comfortable with her. She was great at providing updates and keeping us informed and at following their feeding/medicine schedules. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”
“Abby stayed in our home and cared for our two Doodles… she was amazing. Communication and response time was great. Sent pics of the pups, that was fun. Followed all our instructions, very responsible. Looking forward to her sitting for us again.”
“Nicole did an excellent job taking care of our dogs. She kept us updated with message, picture's and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. The best feedback we can give is that our dogs absolutely loved her and felt very comfortable with her. We would definitely trust her again!”
“Chris and Liz were absolutely amazing caring for our dogs during our 10 day vacation. We really appreciated the service of them staying at our home. On the very first day, one of our older dogs was accidentally injured, and Chris went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable, loved, and well cared for throughout her recovery. He kept us updated with frequent messages and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they genuinely cared for our dogs as if they were their own. We came home to two happy, well loved pups and couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend Chris and Liz to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, professional pet sitters!”
“Tyler was amazing. He made me feel very comfortable leaving my girls with him. He sent pictures and updates, which I always greatly appreciate. He was great in taking them to the dog park to run off some energy, even in this freezing cold! I would absolutely recommend Tyler and will definitely be booking with him again. Thank you, Tyler!”

Enzo, Lina & Scrat had a wonderful weekend with Bailey, a lovely lady who truly looked after all the fur balls and our home. Always wonderful to come home to home as clean and tidy as it was left along with happy pets. We'll see Bailey for a return stay on a few weeks :)
Damica went above and beyond our expectations for a dog sitter! We came home to a very happy and healthy dog. She did a great job keeping us updated with photos and messages and she did a great job handling our very stubborn pup. We will definitely be asking her to dog sit again!
Viviane was a blessing. She accepted our job after another sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was prompt, professional, but extremely personable and very caring with Diesel. She came by a day before the sitting appointment to meet Diesel. He took to her promptly. When she returned to sit with him, he ran to her as if he was her dog.

FAQs for House Sitting - Zionsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Zionsville on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,482 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Zionsville. 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 Zionsville 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 Zionsville 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 Zionsville 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 Zionsville. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
