“We would highly recommend Bailey for your pet/house sitting needs. It was our first time using Rover and we have three dogs (2 large) so we wanted someone that was comfortable around large dogs. Our dogs warmed up to Bailey as soon as they met her. We felt our home was in good hands and came back to it looking exactly as left. Will definitely look to Bailey in the future when needed.”
“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).”
“Danielle is remarkable. My shy and anxious puppy was snuggling in her lap in no time. I got regular updates with photos, so I had peace of mind. Danielle is also very punctual, easy to work with, and a great communicator”
“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.”
“Regina was awesome taking care of our senior dog while we were in Montana. She gave us updates each day and we came home to a very happy dog! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!”
“This was our first time using a pet-sitting service, and we couldn’t have had a better experience! Stephanie stayed in our home for 12 days taking care of our two dogs, Nala and Zimba, and she was absolutely wonderful. Her communication was excellent — she kept us updated every day with messages and beautiful photos (she takes amazing pictures!). Throughout her stay, she was kind, respectful, and very organized. We came back to very happy and well-cared-for dogs. We highly recommend Stephanie and would love to have her stay with Nala and Zimba again in the future!”
“Rhonda was wonderful!! I just rescued this dog and she has some challenges. Rhonda did a great job dealing with her issues and making sure that everything went well. I will definately use her again in the future.”
“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!”
“I have never used a pet sitter before, so when choosing through Rover, I chose the five star review. Allison was tremendous with my three pups; a Yorkie, and two large shepherds (one of which is not so easy to manage). She took care of my pups sending me updates with the happenings around my house. If you are inclined to use a Pet Sitter for your vacations; I highly suggest Allison.”
“Kristle was amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to watch our Coco Bella! Kristle was loving and caring! She was so good to Coco! She took her out on walks, played with her, and made sure she was well taken care of. She sent us pictures everyday and was quick to respond! I am so happy we met Kristle and we will be in contact with her for future needs! I highly recommend her services! Thank you Kristle and family! Coco loved you guys!”
“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.”
“My first time using Rover, and I’ll definitely be using it again thanks to Christina. Being 600 miles away from my pet and leaving her with a complete stranger had my mind worried but quickly eased with how well Christina was taking care of my Bella”
“We’ve used Rover for years and never had such a positive experience as we did with Megan. She not only took diligent notes about all of my pups little quirks and preferences, but she really went the extra mile every opportunity she had. Our dogs loved her, too 😃. I will absolutely be using her in the future and recommending Megan to anyone looking for a pet/house sitter.”
“Tucker stayed with jedi all weekend, he took him on walks, kept me updated (with pictures) and gave him the attention he deserves. Jedi liked his company and I will happily rebook if he is available for my next trip.”
“It was so wonderful to have Maddie watch Bella while I visited family out of state over a long weekend. Not only did Maddie keep me updated daily with pictures and what her and Bella were up to, but she was also very attentive to all of the instructions I went over with her prior to leaving. I would highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will definitely request her services in the future.”
“Karissa did a wonderful job taking care of our two large dogs, especially our toddler Rottweiler, who is mischievous and full of energy. We came home to a clean house, happy puppies, and we are definitely using her again.”

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.
