“I needed someone to stay with my two dogs for a last minute trip. Aleya was quick to respond and was able to do it. She took amazing care of my babies and my apartment while I was gone for a few days. And even took them on some nice long walks on some trails. I would definitely recommend her and will keep her in mind for my next trip!”
“Anna is awesome! She watched our dog Winnie for 5 nights. We got lots of pictures/updates and could tell our dog had a great time. Our dog instantly liked Anna during the meet and greet, and they picked up right where they left off for our trip. Our home was just as we had left it upon our return. We felt so comfortable having Anna stay with Winnie- we will definitely use her again! Definitely recommend her services. Thanks, Anna!”
“Delaney was just fantastic. She took great care of not even our pet, but our house as well. We hope to have the opportunity to use her again. Thank you!”
“Michelle was amazing. We were gone for 10 days in Europe and have a senior dog and she was fantastic making sure Ruby was comfortable and well cared for in our home. She communicated frequently and with lots of pics so our minds were at ease. She was attentive and the house was well taken care of too. We love Michelle!”
“Betty is always just absolutely the best. Spending so much time with the babies, taking photos, sending report cards, and being a great person. We feel lucky to have her in our life, and so do our dogs!”
“McKenzie went out of her way to come meet my dog and I prior to her stay. She has a very kind presence and made me feel very comfortable leaving my pet and home in her care. Would absolutely book again!”
“Olivia was able to come stay at my place with my sweet Thor while I was out of town for a weekend. She was communicative and punctual, and agreed to a meet and greet before I left town. I received updates throughout the weekend and my place was left clean, tidy, and with a happy dog :) I will definitely reach out to Olivia again in the future with any dog sitting needs :)”
“Mark took amazing care of our pets on our vacation. Sent very thorough reports and pictures that left me with so much peace of mind. One of our cats got in a fight while we were gone and he took care of him like it was his own cat. I will absolutely use him again and would 100% recommend.”
“Gaby is a gem! She did SO well with our sweet senior pup, going above and beyond to give her lots of snuggles and attention, sending us frequent updates and cute photos, and taking great care of our house too. She cares deeply about animals and we are grateful she cares for ours too! She came for meet and greets, asked great questions, and noted down all the important details about our dog including medications etc.. We would strongly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to have her back over to care for our dog again!”
“Casey was truly an outstanding dog sitter!! She stayed at my house and watched my sweet old girl. Casey sent me daily pictures of Remie and her adorable dog, Moose sun bathing outside or taking naps. She was so sweet to even wash the bed sheets for me as I was returning home pretty late in the evening. Remie looked like she had a really fun time with Casey & Moose. Would HIGHLY recommend & book again with Casey. Thank you so much!!”
“Kirk was wonderful with our two poodles. He sent lots of pictures and took them on plenty of hikes giving these two active dogs the exercise they need. The house was spotless upon our return. Highly recommend!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Diana. I was so nervous even though I was only leaving my dog for 2.5 days. But Diana sent lots of updates and really put me at ease. I highly recommend her!”
“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”
“Stephanie was so great with our dogs! She sent lots of updates and pictures. She was really good with communication and responsive to our messages. She even saved us from a last minute cancellation from another Rover. Our house was left in excellent condition. We will definitely be booking Stephanie again.”
“Melanie was an absolute treasure! The best in home pet sitter we have ever had! 2+ in detail updates a day with pictures and constant communication. We have 4 very large dogs + a kitty. We didn’t feel worried for a single moment during our vacation knowing she would be checking in and taking care of our fur-babies and home so well. Our sweetheart Lab Sophie is a rescue who was abused, and we have never left town without coming back to see her traumatized and shaking. Coming back from this trip though we walked through the door and she was just chilling in the living room smiling while all of our doogies watched “Dog Tv” that Melanie had put on for them. In the future we will always try to book Melanie. It’s a sigh of relief knowing we can depend on someone who takes their job and passion so seriously. Love you Melanie!!!”
“Annie was such a sweetheart and so loving and understanding for our pup! He doesn’t get to experience new people too frequently and loved Annie from the jump. We would absolutely recommend her to other dog owners!”

Catherine was an excellent cat/house sitter during our 2 week vacation this summer! She kept in touch with updates on our kitties and gave me great peace of mind while we were away that everything was safe and sound at home. We hope she will stay again next time we go away.
Sydney was easy to communicate with and took great care of Koda while I was out of town. Left the house tidy and even came back to check in on her and play some fetch on the last day since I didn’t return until the evening. Would recommend and use Sydney again!

FAQs for House Sitting - East Millcreek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Millcreek on Rover is $64.2 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,845 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Millcreek. 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 East Millcreek 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 East Millcreek 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 East Millcreek 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
