“Sarah was communicative, flexible and personable. Our dogs took to her immediately and Sarah was able to watch them at our B&B for an extended period of time. Sarah sent pictures, kept us informed throughout the evening and prepared the dogs for our return!”
“We have always had family or close friends take care of our three precious Shih Tzus (Cocoa 17, Winnie 8 and Tobi 2) so finding a professional dog sitter was a little scary at first. I made contact with Liz (through Rover) and we set up a meet and greet at our home so we could all get to know eachother and decide if the arrangement would be a good fit. Liz introduced herself, told us about her background and experience taking care of different breeds of dogs/animals. I was very impressed with her knowledge and how genuinely sweet she was to our little babies. She ended up spending a couple hours at our house which was nice, mostly getting to know each of our dogs and their very unique personalities lol. We also spent time going over everything from likes, dislikes, playtime, bedtime routines and most importantly mealtime/feeding routines. Liz was there at dinner time so we were able to over the measurements and all of the different types of food we use (it can be confusing at times). We gave her a tour of the house, outside yards and she asked all the right questions that I didnt even think about asking (being new to this and all). I felt very at ease after she left and confident we made the right decision hiring her. While away, Liz sent us updates, pictures and communicated any questions she had. All three of our dogs were so happy, well fed, exercised and most importantly LOVED while Mom and Dad were away. On the day Liz left she made sure the dog's morning routines were all completed, she gave them some extra love, left the house spotless and even started the dishwasher. We highly recommend Liz and hopefully she will have availability the next time we are in need!!!! Thank you🥰”
About: I was a dog mom for 17 yrs. I had two dogs, Kiya and Elvis, who were the best friends a girl could ever ask for. Sadly, they are both gone now. I have watched dogs for friends and family and I volunteer at my local animal shelter. I find so much joy in it. I'm semi-retired now so I have found I have a lot more time to do both now. I would love to care for your dogs. I never met a dog I don't like. I know it can take time for some dogs to trust and I accept that, especially with the shelter dogs. I always miss the dogs I've watched and the dogs who get adopted. From the time I was a small child, I have been drawn to animals. I'm semi-retired now so I'm frequently available to care for your dogs. It can be a potty break on a long work day, a weekend get away or a vacation. I've watched dogs as small as a 3 lb chihuahua to a 75 lb lab. I easily adapt to whatever routine and care your dogs are used to. I have an agreement with myself that I don't leave your dogs unless I absolutely have to. I've watched dogs in Florida and Colorado where I was encouraged to venture out and enjoy myself but I preferred to do that with their dogs or not at all. I will treat them with the utmost care, after all they are like your children. I'm happy to have them sleep with me if that's what they feel best with. My dogs slept with me every night. I respect if people crate their dogs as well.
“Hailey what a perfect and wonderful Pet Sitter for Kiki, my Doberman Shepherd, who is high energy and three years old.. She stayed overnight three nights and took great care of the house and the dog… she communicated with me all the time and sent me lots of great pictures of Kiki who has separation anxiety, but really well. Thank you, Haley!”
About: Hi!! What sets me apart from others is how dedicated I am to everything! I have strong drive, I love caring for people and furry freinds! I have 4 dogs of my own and have been trusted by many to take care of their amazing furry family members! I work a part time job currently and am looking for some extra cash, but by doing something I love, and that is dogs! I also LOVE walking I’m a young athletic person, who can also chill when needed! My wonderful fur babys are all trained! They stay within the yard and listen to recall! So if you’re also looking for someone dedicated to a little bit of training I can do basic training! But I also can provide simple care for your doggo, standard walking, feeding, snuggles or no snuggles! I’m open to many kinds of care!
“I had a last-minute adjustment to my vacation schedule and needed a sitter and found Shayna. She was super flexible and accommodating, and came to meet my dogs and learn their routine the same day! Shayna provided excellent care for my dogs who are anxious and can sometimes be difficult to care for. I would absolutely use her again for overnight services or walking anytime that we are traveling and she is available! Thank you for taking such good care of my girls💙🐶”
About: I have cared for all types of dogs big and small, and have lived, trained, and babysat dogs since i was little! I love animals, and currently have a flexible schedule to be able to care for yours. I treat them as if they are my own, and will love them with every ounce i have! I will show up in any weather, and have no problems giving medication. I have no fears of any size dog, and am usually the one found with the dog rather than people at any gathering ha! I am super careful, super thorough, and very reliable. I currently do work, but with my schedule I have a lot of time available during the day and afternoons, some nights. I am lucky in that my schedule is flexible, and can do daily visits, walks, short/long term, and potentially overnights. I am able to do overnights with your dog at my house, or happy to come to you as well. I have a big fenced in yard, and live across the street from a giant beautiful park with trails and fields to play in. I have friends who live on my street who, if ever needed, are beyond trust worthy if your pup ever needs anything. My boss also lives next door! I also live right near two other parks, and beaches. I am in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks as well. I grew up with dogs my whole life, so my parents are also near by. Im also close to two animal hospitals
About: I’ve taken care of various dog and cat breeds to help out friends and family for years. I’ve had to follow specific instructions based on behavior and/or medical needs of the animal. I’ve been relied on for potty breaks, meal times, and a little activity. I work full time, however, I’m available for afternoon walks/care during the week. On weekends, I have flexibility with my schedule to include play dates, feedings, etc. I have a small indoor space to enjoy, as well as, a BIG unfenced yard. I prefer to use a leash when outdoors at all times unless I brought them to a fenced in area or are known to stay close to home.
About: I am a small business owner with previous experience working as a veterinary technician in emergency veterinary medicine. I have owned animals my entire life and have two cats of my own (both of which were rescues). I am compassionate, patient, and friendly. I adore meeting and taking care of your babies! I own a small craft business on the side so I may be unavailable some weekends but am flexible with availability! Pet care is passion of mine! I will take the time to introduce myself to your fur baby and make sure they are comfortable with me! We will make sure we go on walks or have plenty of time to play! I will love your babies like they are my own! They aren’t just pets, they are family.
“Sue took great care of Rocky while we were away. He's an old cat and he worries a lot when we're gone, but he looked happy and relaxed when we returned. The house looked great too! I'll definitely book Sue again.”
About: I have an innate love for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I treat all dogs individual needs and try to be you when you are away so they feel comfortable, safe and loved. I have learned a lot from my sister who had her own breeding program and who worked on a farm that had multiple breeding programs and boarders/training sessions. I am in the market for a new job since I am new to the area. So I am available anytime now. I will update accordingly with my new job 😊 I respect all house rules the owners inform me of. I have experience with crating dogs, sleeping in the same bed as them and also with e-collars and bark collars. I am comfortable walking with different types of leads.
“What an outstanding experience with Michele! She was so patient and loving with our boy. We received several updates and pictures during her time with Bob; not sure if we could ask for anything better. Would highly recommend!”
“I had to go out of town for a few days and needed a boarding kennel for my 70lb lab. My kennel that I have used previously closed down operations so I needed to find someplace new. I couldn't find any place I liked so I started searching online for someone to care for my dog at their home. That is how I discovered Rover. I found Charles on Rover and rather than keeping my dog at his home he offered to come stay at my home. Which for me was the best possible outcome. It worked out great. Charles was very respectful of my home and my dog liked him. If I have to board my dog again, Charles will be my first choice. I highly recommend him.”
“Danny did a great job watching our dog for a week over Christmas. She has separation anxiety so he brought her to his family’s Christmas! We were so thankful she wasn’t home alone during the holidays! Danny was also very responsible watching our house and even cleaned the sheets before he left. He kept us updated with messages and photos. We’ll definitely be using him again in the future!”
“Yas was great! Communicative and responsive, and understanding when there was some miscommunication on our part. Thanks for helping us out when we were in a tight spot after our original dog sitter bailed!”
About: My partner, August, and I have been caring for dogs our whole lives. We have experience working with different ages, breeds, temperaments, and varying levels of special needs care. We began our training journey when we rescued our two german Shepards and trained them as our service dogs. Our girls, Maya and Sadie, have grown so much in these past years! Watching the progress is very rewarding, so we want to extend that same reward to you, your pup, and your family. At this time, we offer dog walking, drop ins, overnight stays and boarding. At this time we don’t have openings for scheduling training sessions, but if there are behavioral concerns, please let us know and we can discuss how to support your pup. We understand everyone works different schedules. Our schedules are very flexible and we want to make sure your pet is able to be cared for without time restrictions. We offer morning, afternoon, and evening hours. We will treat your pup like our own. We will discuss what is most important to you in regards to ensuring the visit is safe in their environment. It is important to let us know of any medical or special need cares ahead of time so we can properly educate ourselves first. We will discuss any routines to be followed and review safety measures to follow.
“Gabrielle was incredible with Ivie and so respectful of my home! She kept me up to date throughout the day and sent lots of pictures and videos. She told me that she likes to leave the house in a better place then when she arrived and she more than achieved that!”
About: I began my journey in animal care at the age of 15, working at a dog boarding and daycare facility. Over the course of six rewarding years, I honed my skills in managing and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. While I later transitioned to office roles, my passion for the outdoors and animal companionship has never waned. Today, I am the proud caretaker of a diverse and lively menagerie, including my own pups, a cat, goats, ducks, pigs, cows, and chickens. My deep connection with animals drives me to offer exceptional daycare and boarding services. My property features a spacious field and a scenic wooded trail, perfect for nature walks and playgroups for local pets. I am committed to creating fun and enriching experiences for your furry friends, combining my love for animals with my extensive experience in pet care. Let’s make your pet’s day extraordinary with engaging outdoor adventures and personalized care! I can accept your fur babies for daycare or boarding 7 days a week. I also accept last minute reservations. Drop offs can be as early as 6am and pick up can be negotiable depending on the day. I have 3 playful dogs who love to have friends to romp around the field with and go swimming in the river. My property is not fenced in.

FAQs for House Sitting - Center Sandwich
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 113 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Center Sandwich. 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 Center Sandwich 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 Center Sandwich 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 Center Sandwich 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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 Center Sandwich. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 80% 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.
