“Kayla was absolutely amazing with both of our 50+ lb dogs. One of our dogs is anxious around new people, but Kayla’s calm demeanor made them fast friends. She was able to schedule last minute and was very accommodating to our schedule. She left the house spotless, kept the dogs on an active schedule, and regularly updated us on how they were doing. We will definitely be booking again”
“Cordelia did a great job! She went above and beyond with bringing our dogs on multiple walk and keeping us updated with pictures, videos, and messages. We will definitely rebook when when need a house sitter again!”
“Sierra did a great job watching our dogs and staying at our house for five nights! She took good care of our pups and our home while we were away. We really appreciated her help and would happily have her watch them again!”
About: As a pet owner myself for over 7 years, I’ve taken care of both small dogs and larger breed dogs! My chihuahua and husky are my babies, and i will treat your doggies with as much love as i do mine. I do regular dog walks around our beautiful neighborhood, as well as frequent potty walks. I’m currently working full time Mon-Fri, but am available on weekends!! I can also do Fridays as long as it’s after 4pm! if you have any questions let me know! Although my apartment does not have a backyard, we do have mini dog parks for them to socialize, and i also make sure to do regular potty walks, as well as long walks around the neighborhood.
About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.
About: Hi! I'm Emily, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to five furry family members—two dogs and three cats. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including puppies, senior pets, multi-pet households, and pets with anxiety or medical needs. As both a pet sitter and pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience administering medications, caring for pets with separation anxiety, and providing individualized attention based on each pet's unique needs and routine. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, while giving you peace of mind through reliable communication and updates. When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal. I see a living being. I see a friend. I feel a soul. I work full-time as a preschool teacher during the week, but I am available for evening, weekend, holiday, and overnight pet care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for multiple pets of my own. I'm committed to providing dependable care and will work closely with you to maintain your pet's normal schedule and routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and household rules. I take time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and any special needs before care begins. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important communication is, so you'll receive regular updates and photos while you're away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or stopping in for visits, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience.
“Kylene was very personable and it was easy to see how much she enjoys animals. Was very reliable. Arrived when expected. She kept great contact by sending periodic pics to assure me Lydia was comfortable and being cared for. I would recommend her and I will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve been house and dog sitting since I was 12 years old, so caring for animals is second nature to me. Growing up, I’ve had my own dog (and she is a diva) and three birds, so I’m super comfortable managing different animal personalities, daily routines, and dietary needs. I have also had 2 cats that I have shared with roommates! The biggest thing that sets me apart is my schedule. Because I study from home, I have a very minimal, flexible weekly routine. That means I would not just dropping by for a quick check-in, I can actually hang out at your house for long stretches or stay the entire day without having to leave. If your pet gets lonely, has separation anxiety, or just loves having a human around 24/7 to cuddle and keep them company, I’m your person! I am able to stay at your house however much you need me there from Thursday nights-Monday nights Sundays: completely available for 24/7 care Mondays: completely available for 24/7 care Tuesdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 4pm Wednesdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 4pm Thursdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 7pm Fridays: completely available for 24/7 care Saturdays: completely available for 24/7 care I will request you give me guidelines of what times you animal eats, much much the animal eats, and how often they tend to go outside/to the litter box. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as regular as possible so your pet is happy, healthy, and ready for you to come home ☺️
“Wonderful job on overnight stay! We received pictures and updates and the house was left in perfect shape. We are very thankful to have a reliable dog watcher and will continue to use ❤️”
About: I grew up in a small town with horses, dogs, and cats. I have been an animal lover since I was just a little girl. My Aunt had a kenneling facility that I helped with throughout the years and growing up. It was more like a little staycation for furry friends while families traveled for various reasons. Customers always came back relieved because they knew that their pets were in great hands. My responsibilities included keeping the living space sanitary and comfortable, feeding, watering, cleaning, exercising, and monitoring the animals' health and behavior, and obviously a lot of added love and play time! I dog sit for a few people (friends/family) here in and stay at their homes when they are gone and love it so much, I decided to check out Rover! I am hardworking, kind, compassionate, and trustworthy. Whether you kennel your dog or prefer not to I am your go-to girl when it comes to any of these needs! Recently moved back to Omaha and looking for a part time job! Book me today! I recently moved back to Omaha and am working part-time right now. My schedule is very flexible, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do not board pets at my own home. However, I will care for your loved one/ones following your instructions, feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, administering medication if needed, and cleaning up after him/her. I will also maintain the home's cleanliness and security and keep you updated on your furry friend/friends' status.
“Ashlee was wonderful. She took care of our Willow and also our home. I would trust her to take care of my dog anytime. She is responsible and very caring for our furry friend. Thank you Ashlee.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Having owned and cared for different breeds since childhood, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs. I work from home as a Project Controller, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. To ensure the best experience possible, I only accept one family’s dog at a time. This helps reduce anxiety and stress for both dogs and their owners while giving your pup my full attention. I’ll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐾❤️ I work remotely, which is perfect as it provides a lot of flexibility as well as allows me spend more time taking care of my dog as well of others. Doing daily walks, play games, giving them some love! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if you prefer and make other accommodations as needed.
About: I love spending time with animals and getting to meet all different types of breeds while getting to watch them and care for them at the same time. I am going to school part time right now and have lots of extra free time spent at home for taking care of pets. I am okay with having pets in my home as well as traveling to others homes to care for the animals. I treat the animals i watch as if they are my own making sure i tend to their needs and make them feel safe and cared for!
About: I have had dogs all of my life....big and small. I have trained my malshi to sit and stay and go through the doggy door and reacts to certain commands! Mostly weekends, but evenings during the weekdays work for us as well! I am in sales so I come home every now and then during the day! I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door for small dogs if needed! Our backyard is very large for all size dogs to run around!
“I would leave 10 Stars if I could! Elizabeth took amazing care of our three dogs and a cat! After meeting her for the first time I knew she was the person I could trust with my pets. She is professional in all respects. All the dogs reacted calmly when introduced to her. She goes above and beyond what is normally expected. My dogs are very active and require exercise and a lot of attention. Both of those conditionals were met with Elizabeth exercising them twice a day. She is trustworthy, caring, and followed our dog schedule perfectly. Elizabeth showed her ability to handle situations when ants invaded our house. We were able to rid the house of ants with the help of a neighbor and Elizabeth keeping the dogs clear of any toxic over spray. I am so thankful for her taking care of issues when they arise. Communications with Elizabeth were excellent as she was in contact everyday. Upon our return, we found our house clean and devoid of mountains of dog hair. It is so comforting to know you can leave the country and know that your pets are receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Elizabeth for taking care of any pet.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life! I also began pet sitting at a very young age. I’ve dealt with dogs and cats of ages that range from newborn to 15. I also have experience working in an animal boarding facility. I was tasked with taking care of 50 dogs and several cats at a time as well as cats and bunnies on occasion. I administered medication and meals that followed strict diets. I would also walk each pup daily (if required by owner). I have a love for all pups and I will always do whatever I can to ensure they are happy and taken care of! I work 10-3 on weekdays and either afternoons or evenings on weekends. Other than that I am usually free and can be very flexible! As of now, I am living in an apartment. There is a dog park nearby with plenty of room for pups to run and play.
About: I currently work as a caregiver and they have 2 dogs that I walk. I also walk dogs dog for Wag.

I’ll have plenty of time in the evening and overnight I live in an a apartment right now and I’m planning on moving into a house. I have one small dog, he’s a friendly dog
“I’ve never had a sitter so communicative and well thought through - Brittni sent several photos each day of our pup, and worked with me through some logistics that I thought might be an obstacle. If you’re anxious about leaving your pup, you should absolutely book with Brittni. She and her fam were incredible”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 860 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ashland. 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 Ashland 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 Ashland 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 Ashland 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.
