“Matthew was such a wonderful choice to sit with our pets. He was very friendly, and our pets seemed to be very comfortable with him. He helped us out so much when we were in a bind. I would definitely have him sit for us again in the future and highly recommend.”
“Teri was a wonderful sitter for my dog Maddie while I was away for the weekend. She stayed with Maddie overnight, which was especially important because Maddie really needs someone with her at night. Teri kept me updated every day with photos and messages. Gave Maddie her medicine when she was supposed too. I would definitely use Teri again to care for Maddie, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.”
“Best house sitter that there ever was!!! She washed and folded the laundry that she used (we didn’t ask her to), she helped out with Buddy, our Elf on the Shelf, and was great with communication.”
About: I have cared for dogs for family and friends, offering loving attention, fun walks and playtime. I will treat your dog like family, respecting their individual needs. I am currently retired and have time to help with dog care. I am flexiable, trustworthy and enjoy taking care of animals and their needs. I provide caring, dependable pet care in your home, helping pets feel comfortable and secure while giving you confidence that their needs are thoughtfully met.
“Leah was an incredible dog sitter! She is very friendly, and loving to animals. She came by first to meet my dogs and learn where everything is in my house. She took great care of my puppy Lilly who requires a lot of attention, and took great care of my Flip!! She sent me multiple updates throughout the day including pictures and video. She even taught Lilly a new trick while she was here, and that was just one day!! 10/10 recommend Leah.”
“Dominika is a wonderful pet sitter! My dogs were not used to family leaving for several days, but she made sure they felt safe and happy while we were away. Finn and Paige had lots of love and outdoor fun with her fur babies, Bella and Rico. Dominika sent updates with pictures to let me know they were doing just fine. It was a pleasure having Dominika watch our dogs! My Finn would agree! He wanted to go home with her when we got home!”
“Abigail has walked our dogs for us multiple weeks now and stayed overnight while we were away. She always does an amazing job with keeping us updated and sending lots of pictures. Our two dogs and cat always do really well with her! We trust her to take care of our animals and would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker or overnight stay. Thank you Abigail!”
“Taylor was a last minute lifesaver because I accidentally booked the wrong dates with our regular in home dog sitter. Outside of this, Taylor did an awesome job with our three rambunctious dogs, sent updates with pictures and even vacuumed before she left. We can’t wait to rebook with Taylor!”
“Kaila was amazing!! She took care of my German Shepherd while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated the whole time and I’m so grateful she took such a good care of my baby!”
“Adriana took care of my dog and my home while I was away for five nights. She left my home better than she found it and my dog happy, healthy, and well cared for. I will definitely continue to use her for both routine walks and vacations.”
About: Overnight stays, daily visits, & animal boarding. Dogs, cats, bearded dragons, turkeys, farm animals. I’ve taken care of them all. I’m an adventurous and helpful pet sitter, willing to love your animal while you’re away. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule to give your pets the attention they deserve. Daily walks, complicated schedules, clingy animals. Whatever you need! I have a large yard and social dogs to play with your pup. Crate trained dogs are also welcome. I also will stay at your home if that’s preferred.
“I want to be greedy and keep Kourtney a secret…But also go on and on about how amazing she is! This was our first time leaving the girls with someone and we could not have asked for anyone better. She was timely, communicative, and most importantly so kind to our baby dogs (and our home)! You will not regret having her help care for your pups. If we could give 1,000 stars we would!”
“Chelsy watched our Silky terrier Sean for several hours while we were attending a wedding. It’s obvious she has a love for animals. She was so compassionate and kind, and was very attentive to our small dog who suffers from separation anxiety. He was drawn to her immediately after she arrived at our Airbnb rental, and he appeared calm and stress-free after our return. We would highly recommend her!”
“Adriene sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay. Communication was frequent and clear and my Sophie was doing great when I went back home. She took good care of the house as well. Overall great experience!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up with an Akita German Shepherd mix who taught me patience, confidence, and how to read dog personalities. I used to help out at a small local rescue on weekends, mostly walking dogs and giving them baths, and it made caring for animals feel second nature. I’m gentle, reliable, and always treat pets like they’re my own. Your pet will be in loving hands with me. I’m available on weekdays during most of the day starting from today Oct 17th to Oct 23rd. I have a week off of work and am looking forward to my bookings! When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar as possible. I start by following the owner’s instructions closely such as feeding schedules, litter or potty routines, favorite toys, and any specific quirks or habits. I make sure the home stays safe and tidy, double checking doors, gates, and food portions so nothing is overlooked. I spend quality time with each pet based on what they enjoy, such as playtime, slow cuddles, or quiet company. I also give updates with photos so owners always know how their pets are doing. My goal is to make their home feel just as comfortable and secure as if their person were there.
“Emily was a perfect fit for my liberty! She sent me lots of photos!! When I arrived home Liberty was very happy to see us, but after the excitement of her greeting us she was running around the house looking for Emily! I will use Emily again and recommend her to anyone who wants there pets to receive lots of love ❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eakles Mills
She was incredibly attentive to our cat while we were away and continuously went above and beyond including taking care of a broken porch light and speaking to neighbors. When our plans were changing, she was flexible and kind. She took great care of our house as well, leaving things tidy and ready for our return. I will be booking again- cannot recommend higher.
We could not have asked for a better house sitter. Jake stepped in last minute, arrived early, and was incredibly communicative throughout his stay with our dog, which gave us honest peace of mind. Our dog was clearly well cared for, and we truly appreciated that Jake was present when we returned home. Jake is reliable, attentive, and kind; we very much look forward to using him again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for excellent care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,103 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eakles Mills. 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 Eakles Mills 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 Eakles Mills 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 Eakles Mills 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.
