About: I have a strong passion for dogs because of their unconditional love for humans, and the joy they bring me. Growing up, I trained my families dogs, and others dogs in 4-H. I am a life-long pet owner, and consider them to be my best friend. I currently have a full-time weekday job. During the week, I am available for walks before 8:00am, and anytime after 5:00pm. If house sitting pet in my home, I will go home on my lunch break for a potty break for clients dog and to get a little exercise. I am available anytime during the weekends. Every day, your dog will be walked several miles a day. I will ensure the pet is safe by checking fences/gates are closed prior to letting the dog out and keeping a very close eye on the dog during this time at the clients home. I also understand the importance of not letting 2 dogs who are on a leash, cross paths, as this is a cause for a dog fight. Some dogs require to be kenneled when not under supervision, and I will ensure that this happens any time I am not at the clients home. I will make sure that the clients home is locked prior to leaving the residence. If there are multiple pets eating at one time, I will ensure each pet has their own space to eat in private.

“We were thrilled with Phillip's care of our two large dogs (90 and 94 pounds). One was a foster dog who had only been in our care a short while. We were unsure how he would react ... but he loved his overnight playmate :) Phillip sent lots of photos, which helped put my mind at ease. He took the dogs for a walk and attended to their every need. I would not hesitate to use Phillip again or to recommend him to anyone looking for a fellow dog-lover to take for their furry family member(s).”

About: I have always had a big heart for all dogs. They truly are man’s best friends! I grew up with 2 dogs of my own, Melbee and Reese. I watched and helped care for them in the crazy puppy and teething stages, the feisty teenager stage, all the way up into the little old lady stage. They were the most loving, sweet dogs and I miss them so much. I think every dog deserves all the love, head scratches, and snuggles in the world and would love to be there for your dogs when you are taking a vacation or will be away! I recently rescued my wonderful dog, Puff, who’s quite the big boy! He’s 83 pounds of pure love. I love all dogs, big or small! I do work Monday - Friday from home, but I am available as early in the morning as you need and then I am available after work. I am also free on the weekends to stop by and care for your baby as much as you need! In your own home, I will make sure to keep everything exactly the way you need, clean up after both the dogs and myself, and keep your home in top notch condition. I know dogs can get messy sometimes so If you show me where the vacuum is, I will get right to work! Nothing is better than coming home to your favorite pet and a nice clean home!

She sent pics on their walks, gave him love & attention, fed him on our schedule, brought in our mail, and informed us of a Christmas package that had arrived. This is our 2nd Christmas having Michelle care for our dog/home and we could not be happier! Michelle is a professional, personable, caring person to trust with your pet. HIGHLY RECOMMEND her.”

My dogs were comfortable with her off the bat, and she gave them lots of attention and cuddles while I was away, and sent the cutest photos.

About: * Having served my local community's pet care needs in Missouri for over 3 years now, both through Rover and my private business, I've built a solid foundation of recurring clients, such that I do not have many current reviews on this page. I am quite proud of the relationships I've developed with my clients and their animals, and that we've established the trust, confidence, and history of reliability needed to have years behind our professional relationships. * After a full Marine Corps career wrapped up in North Carolina, my family and I moved to Missouri and have begun putting down our roots. I have maintained my CPR and First Aid certifications for 4 years, am privately insured and bonded. My personal pack of pups are older, so I have a significant amount of experience with seniors, to include administering medication and special physical needs, but also have cared for senior kitties, puppies, kittens, and a variety of small caged animals. In the time that we've been in Cass County, I've cared for pigs, horses, chickens, and ducks, but am willing to be taught how to care for most any animal that the owner is willing to take time to show me how to do. I am am member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters and Pet Sitters International. I am experienced in knowing and recognizing the signs of stress in cats and dogs, and their body language, and strive to maintain continuing education about the animals I take care of through online courses, in person courses, and personally guided studies. My pet care business, both personal and through Rover, is my full time job as clients make requests of me. I am available for regular visits in your home for potty breaks, meals, administering medication, and/or walks around your neighborhood. I am also available for house sitting in your home. My house sitting services are dedicated care from 8p to 8a, with one half-hour midday visit. Additional visits can be scheduled if needed as regular drop in visits. I am available for more constant care on a case by case basis that can be discussed at the time the dates are submitted. The more information you can give me about your pets, the better, so that I can make them as comfortable as possible with our visits. Before a booking begins, I'll set up an emergency plan with you so you can take comfort in knowing your pets are in good hands. With each visit, I send several pictures and a detailed card so you know exactly how our visit(s) went. I carry a First Aid kit with me to each visit and am able to take care of any small issues that may arise. For house sitting, I have a questionnaire that needs to be completed before our first meeting, and am always happy to answer any questions that may come from it. When you leave your pets in my care, I want you to be confident in knowing that I've done everything possible to care for them to the best of my abilities.

About: Hello, I have over 5 years of experience taking care of animals at veterinary hospitals and rescue groups. I worked as a pet resort/boarding manager and as a kennel attendant. My responsibilities included: walking, feeding, watering, bathing, grooming, sanitary care and pet playtime. I have always loved animals my entire life and grew up on a farm where I took care of and interacted with many different animals which I enjoyed. I have 1 dog, Stormy who is 10 years old and 2 cats, Lorraine, 2 years old and Garth, 6 months old. They are part of my family and I feel my life would be boring without them. I hope you consider me for the care of your furry family members. Thank You! My schedule can be flexible. Please contact me with any inquiries or questions and I will try to accommodate as much as possible for your furry family members. My furry family members have free range of our home and my dog, Stormy enjoys going outside in the fenced in yard. Lorraine and Garth like to play together and look out the windows at the critters in our neighborhood.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bucyrus

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Bucyrus on Rover is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $88 per night. 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 1,326 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bucyrus. 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 Bucyrus 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 Bucyrus 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 Bucyrus 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bucyrus. On Rover:

  • 96% 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.
