“Kiana is a fantastic pet sitter! We had never had someone stay at our place before for pet care, so we were a little nervous but she put our minds at ease. Sent regular updates and photos and seemed to handle our pups' behavioral issues with confidence. Left our house in excellent shape as well. We will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Tayler was amazing! Both of my boys warmed right up to her. She sent video and photo updates every day, sometimes more than once a day. I appreciated knowing my dogs were comfortable around her and were well taken care of. I’d definitely book with Tayler again in the future and would definitely recommend her to others as well.”
“Kieran did a great job taking care of my aging dog. Everything was left neat and tidy around the house and my pooch seemed calm and centered upon our return. I would ask her to house sit again for sure!”
“Karynne was communicative and reliable with our pup Monte. She sent photos and updates while we were out of town. Would absolutely have her stay at our house again / she left everything tidy”
“Ren was great with our 2 dogs. We booked on pretty short notice and everything still went very smoothly. Our dogs seemed very happy in pics Ren sent while we were gone and when we returned. She took great care of the house, too! Very pleasant and professional, we'll definitely book her again.”
“Judas was incredibly mindful of both my space and my senior dog's medical needs while I was traveling. I loved the daily photo updates, and Judas even tidied up before my return! I absolutely will be booking them again :)”
“Teresa is an incredible dog and house sitter. She sat our critters (dog, cat, chickens, and gecko) while we were away on a short vacation. She made sure our pup was happy and secure while we were away. She secured the hens each night and made sure to turn on their light as needed. Teresa’s communication was incredible throughout the whole process. We trusted her completely and would strongly recommend get.”
“Michelle was great with our Australian shepherd! She was able to win him over and they had a lovely time. Our house was clean and as we left it for her. I highly recommend her!”
“Heather was fabulous! She stayed at our house with our 4 month old, high energy puppy - and I know he kept her busy! She spent a lot of time taking him on walks, playing with him and redirecting his wild puppy behavior. She was very communicative with lots of sweet updates, and took the time to come meet Ralph and spend time with him before her stay. Our house was left in perfect shape, and our pup is happy and tired. We’ll definitely be asking her back!”
About: I’m so excited to meet you and your pup! I have experience caring for all kinds of dogs, including high-energy dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I especially love elderly dogs and have experience administering medication and providing extra care for their needs. Every dog has their own unique personality, and I love getting to know each one. I can’t wait to start dog walking or sitting and give your furry friend all the love, care, and attention they deserve! I currently work full-time at Trader Joe’s, where I work morning opening shifts. Even with my morning schedule, I can still accommodate overnight stays and make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need in the morning before I head to work and when I return! When caring for your pet in your home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I enjoy giving lots of cuddles, going on walks, and making time for play. I’ll also send at least three photo updates a day so you can stay connected with your furry friend while you’re away! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and administering any needed medications. I love giving pets plenty of affection while respecting their individual needs and personalities. I’m also available for overnight stays and can provide morning care before my opening shifts at Trader Joe’s. I’ll send at least three photo updates each day so you can see how your furry friend is doing and have peace of mind.

Alicia did a great job with both dogs over the long weekend, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. She was reliable, caring, and clearly gave them lots of love and attention. We’d happily have her watch them again and definitely recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Battin
First time hiring Charlie, I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter. He left my house cleaner than I've ever left it. I have two little dogs. My 14-pound Maltipoo anxiously barked at him when he first arrived and Charlie hung in there. By the end of the weekend my anxious dog was his best friend, and the other one too. He was good with medications and instructions. I would definitely hire him again!
Camille and Shayla did an outstanding job sitting both our dog and house. He received attentive care and was given plenty of exercise, play, and attention. We received daily updates and pictures showing just how well he was doing. Our house was well taken care of and even cleaner than it was when we left. On top of it all communication was excellent. We already have the next house sit booked.
Book Brittany today! I was blown away by her care for my dogs and house! I honestly felt like she was caring for her home and animals. My dogs are always sad/anxious when I go, not with Brittany! My dogs were literally smiling in every photo she sent and very well walked. Brittany will hands down be my first choice from here on out!! Support her and her growing business. Thank you so much I’m very grateful
Corvin was really great. He stayed at my house for a full week and walked my dog twice a day gave him food exactly as I directed plus some pills kept the house clean and it was great knowing that my dog was safe. He sent me pictures every day it was really a great experience. Thank you Corvin.
Kieran was so lovely and kind to our dog who is very sweet but suffers from anxiety. I’ve never seen our dog take to someone new so quickly. We instantly knew our dog was in great hands and that allowed us to enjoy our wedding weekend. Thank you again, Kieran!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Battin is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $85 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 4,499 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Battin. 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 Battin 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 Battin 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 Battin 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.
