“Tiffany stayed at our house with our pup for a good week while we went on vacation and we could not be happier with her time with Phoebe!! We received pics everyday and had great communication…and our house was clean upon our return!! She is an excellent dog sitter and we will be calling on her again!”
About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has multiple years of care experience. I have a puppy so I am aware of the special care needs they may have. I also specialize in cats. I am flexible when it comes to cancellations and care times. I work second shift so I am able to provide care in the mornings or late at night. Late night care does not bother me, as I am a night owl! I am able to board, however I would prefer cats or small dogs. In my spare time I love to exercise, so I would love to take your pup on a long walk! I love animals, so rest assured your friend will be in loving, caring hands when you are away! I work overnights, so I am able to provide care in the mornings, during the day, and in evenings. I am flexible when I need to be! I reside in an apartment and have a large, unfenced yard. Perfect for supervised playtime! I have 2 friendly cats that would love to keep your pet company.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I've owned dogs of all breeds and sizes over the years, and currently share my home with my five-year-old Boxer, Olly. Olly has multiple allergies and follows a strict homemade diet, so I understand the importance of sticking to special diets, medication schedules, and individualized care. I know every pet has unique needs, and I'm happy to provide the extra patience and attention they deserve. Rain, snow, or sunshine, walks and playtime are always part of our routine! I've also discovered that I'm quite the cat lover. We adopted our cat, Dodger, a little over a year ago, and he has completely stolen our hearts. Whether your cat loves to play or prefers a quiet companion, I'm happy to give them the care and affection they need while you're away. In addition to dogs and cats, I'm comfortable caring for reptiles and small mammals too—just please, no tarantulas! I treat every pet as if they were my own because I know they're family. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. Whether you need regular walks, drop-in visits, or care while you're away, I'll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I make communication a priority. I'll send updates, photos, and plenty of tail-wagging (or purring!) moments so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I'll follow your instructions carefully, whether that means feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or plenty of belly rubs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and preferences. I'll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep things clean and tidy, lock doors and make sure your pet is safe before I leave.
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my professional experience as an animal keeper, where attention to detail, behavior observation, and quality care are essential every day. I’ve owned and cared for dogs throughout my life and genuinely enjoy being around them, whether at dog parks, beaches, or dog-friendly spaces. Even without a dog of my own currently, I stay actively connected to dogs and understand the exercise, enrichment, patience, and companionship they need to thrive. I currently work full time as a professional animal keeper, but I’m excited to spend my free time caring for even more animals. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks outside of my work hours, and I bring the same level of attentiveness, reliability, and compassion to pets that I do in my professional animal care career. I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and attention to detail when caring for animals in someone else’s home. I am reliable, respectful of clients’ spaces, and committed to providing attentive monitoring, consistent care, and peace of mind while pets are in my care. I currently care for two cats, a lizard, and a boa, which has given me firsthand experience with the unique needs, behaviors, and routines of a variety of animals. Caring for such different species has strengthened my understanding that every pet is an individual and deserves personalized, attentive care tailored to their specific personality and needs.
“Craig was wonderful with my dogs. He sent pictures and responded to emails. He also stayed at my home and brought in packages as requested. I would highly recommend him for your dog and house sitting needs!”
“Sabrina watched my dog Rosco for a long weekend and did a phenomenal job. She sent many pictures and videos of our dog. I felt completely comfortable leaving Rosco in her care. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I take care of my two dogs named Ivy and Cooper I rescued them both when they were puppies Cooper is now 12 and Ivy is now 4. I walk them once a day. I cuddle and play with them a lot. I’m currently not working so my schedule is very flexible right now to watch and take the dogs for a walk five days a week. I do not have a fenced yard but I am always outside when my dogs are outside I crate my older dog at night I let them out first thing in the morning and feed them first thing and fill up their water bowls.
“Brittany was such a joy to work with while we were out of state for 6 nights. She took fantastic care of our two somewhat high maintenance dogs, and made it so easy for us to be present on our trip. She sent plenty of pictures and our girls were clearly happy spending time with her. We will absolutely try to book with Brittany again in the future.”
“Chloe did an excellent job during my 9 days away. She provided lots of updates, adorable photos, and had excellent communication! She had no issues navigating my dog’s medication schedule or need for multiple walks a day. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting service!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From childhood through adulthood, I’ve regularly spent weeknights and weekends caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs exercise or a more relaxed companion who just wants company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention and care—not just a quick check-in. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. In a client’s home, I stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos. If pets stay with me, I create a calm, safe space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise closely, keep them on their usual schedule, and make sure they get plenty of interaction and care.
“Jennifer was an amazing sitter for Lucy. I received daily updates with photos and knew she was in great hands. Leaving a younger puppy for a longer vacation was difficult, but knowing she was with a loving family made it so much easier. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Kendra cared for our 2 large dogs for 5 days. I have a 2 year old Great Dane Mastiff mix and a 12 year old English Mastiff. They both instantly fell in love with her kind nature. My old guy needs daily meds and an eye drop in his eye, Kendra had no issues with that. We came back, our house was clean and well kept. Most importantly our babies were happy and had a great time hanging out with her. Will rebook soon.”
“Paige watched our 2 pups and our cat at our house. She gave updates and pictures throughout the day. She put our minds at ease while we were on vacation. She also cleaned our house which was a nice bonus.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog since I was 5. I have also had neighbors, family, and friends rely on me with walking and taking care of all different types of dogs ranging from any age. This gave me lots of experience with dogs anywhere from puppies to senior dogs. I am currently working a part time job of only 4 hours shifts; this gives me lots of free time to play and take care of your dog! I am very flexible with your rules you follow with your dog. I have moved a lot with my dog and have been anywhere from a fenced in yard and letting a dog out on their own to having to be put on a leash at all times. Anything and everything works for me!
About: I absolutely love dogs! I have grown up with dogs and have years of dog sitting under my belt. Your pups will be safe and happy with me! I work from home, and I am able to provide your dog(s) all of the care that they need! I am able to walk, babysit, or play with your pups whenever you need! I will make sure your dogs are well taken care of and treat them like they are my own! If I come to your house, I will follow your pets routine.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Avon Center
We definitely had peace of mind with Tiffany because communication was easy and she always got back to us with any requests in a timely manner. We also loved all of the pictures and she also made sure that our dogs avoided getting skunked so we TRULY appreciated that!
Dani took care of our dogs and cat in an excellent manner. Her personal attention and care for them was greatly appreciated. She took care of the house by running our iRobots and pulling in a Chewy delivery. We highly recommend her and will be having her do future bookings. Well done Dani!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Avon Center is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $44 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 961 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Avon Center. 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 Avon Center 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 Avon Center 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 Avon Center 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.
