“Kelly was truly an angel!🙏 She came and did a meet and greet super late at night the day before we had to leave for a trip after another sitter had to back out on us. She stayed for a long time and made sure she understood all of the needs of all my geriatric pets and they loved her. She did a fantastic job and did everything I asked her to (which was A LOT!) and gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much Kelly!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Over the years I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, from furry friends to reptiles, so I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just needs someone patient and reliable to care for them, I’m happy to provide the attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always care for them with the same love and dedication I’d give my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pets! When you book with me, you can expect dependable, loving care for your pets while you’re away. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals—from furry friends to reptiles and even slithering companions—so I understand that every pet has unique needs and deserves personalized attention. Because I have my own wonderful crew of animals at home, I’m unable to offer overnight stays or boarding in my home. However, I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and attentive care to make sure your pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I’ll treat your pets like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your beloved companion is a big decision, and I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering basic care, or providing plenty of playtime and affection, I’ll make sure your pet receives attentive, individualized care. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos during each visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress experience where your pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for until you return home.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and they seem to trust me easily. Basic feeding and walking for dog and cats too if needed. I'm currently looking to make pet sitting my full time emplyoment, I hope to make many animals and pet parents happy with my service. For dogs I would change the food and water when arriving and take dogs for a walk or outside to use the bathroom. Cats I would change food and water while also cleaning the litter box after use.

About: I have lived with 2 golden retrievers since I was born, one male and one female. Both were large dogs and full of energy. I have also looked after neighbor's dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am currently in grad school for physical therapy at Ohio State! I have extra time in the afternoons/evenings and on the weekends, and am looking forward to meeting some new furry friends! I am active in my daily life, and love long walks with dogs who need it! I am super attentive to your pet's needs. I have a golden retriever at home, so I know what type of attention they need and am more than happy to give it!

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and skilled at recognizing behavioral changes and individual needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, providing companionship, administering basic medications when instructed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have experience providing both in-home pet sitting and boarding dogs in my own home. Before transitioning into the corporate world, I partnered with a friend who owned a successful dog-sitting business, where I cared for pets for approximately six years. During that time, I gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. I’m now excited to return to pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I enjoy spending quality time with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and plenty of affection. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit by sending updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll provide patient, loving, and attentive care while respecting your home and your pet’s boundaries. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure your furry family member feels comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way.

About: I’ve pet sat for friends of friends and neighbors in KY for a few years and hope to do the same here. I love taking care of animals, I’ve had a few over the years including 2 dogs, 3 cats and a snake. I’ve been lucky enough to raise some of them from birth. On Wednesday to Friday the pets will have my undivided attention if needs be. I get off work at about 3 and still have all day to you pet. I am also fully flexible if plans change or if something comes up. I have stopped cat fights and created a Great Dane with little to no issues. Every dogs has his day. I’m also more worried about them than me.

About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 24 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!

Hannah took excellent care of our Joey during our long trip. She stayed at our house and left it as clean as when we left it. She followed all instructions to the letter and was also gracious enough to take care of some special requests that we had. She developed a nice relationship with our elderly dog during her stay. Hannah is very professional and we can’t recommend her enough!

Hannah did a great job w our three dogs for a week+ stay. She communicates extremely well and very timely which is impressive by demonstrating her care and attention to your furry family members. She was very flexible w our travel time on her last day and that made me feel confident that my dogs wouldn’t be left alone. Thank you Hannah

FAQs for House Sitting - Commercial Point

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Commercial Point is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $57 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 1,442 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Commercial Point. 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 Commercial Point 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 Commercial Point 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 Commercial Point 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 Commercial Point. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
