“Dillon was amazing with my 4 beasts. He was able to help me out last minute and went above and beyond taking the dogs on individual walks. They were very happy when I got home. His dog Bucky was so sweet and patient with my dogs, they can be a little overwhelming. I was so happy my dogs were in safe hands.”
“Dana took excellent care of my girl. She communicated well throughout. It was clear Ellie was loved and well cared for in my absence. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I've worked in the animal care industry for the past 3 years, first as an animal care technician at a no-kill shelter, then as a dog walker in Atlanta and finally at a doggy daycare just outside Atlanta. I have experience with all breeds and temperaments of dogs, and cats, and have experience with administering medications. I treat each and every animal that comes under my care like I would want my own babies to be treated. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'm free from 12:30 until 6. On Fridays and Mondays, I am free anytime after 2, and on weekends anytime after 3 I'm not set up to do in-home boarding at the moment, though I will be by the end of the year. For now, I can provide care for your pup or cat in the comfort of their own home.
“Alexandra is the best! I would 100% recommend her to anyone to take care of your fur babies! She takes photos and is in complete contact with you every day. My dogs loved her! She is very respectful of your house, and I was very happy with how clean it was when I returned.”
“Shannon was awesome and my Lucy loved her taking good care of her. She followed all instructions given and I really appreciate that she did that. I would highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
“Mallie was excellent! Our pup LOVED her and was so well cared for while we were away. She sent daily updates, lots of photos, and left our house spotless. We 100% recommend her!”
About: I've taken care of multiple types of dogs since I was 13. My families and friends have relied on me to take good care of their dogs. I also have been working with a doggy daycare for the past 2 years. I currently don't have a job and I'm only busy with school. I have a lot of time on the weekends and later in the day to be able to take care of your dogs. I will do whatever it is I'm allowed to do with your dog in your house. I will not put your dog in a crate while I'm there unless if they need to be.
“Meghan is conscientious and dependable, and her care made our trip so much more relaxing. I have an 18 YO cat that needed pilled once a day and Meghan had no problems.) We will definitely be using her again as our kitty sitter.”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a child: my own, neighbor's, friend's, family's and friend of friend's. I also interned for the nonprofit Pets Forever, where we took care of senior citizen's beloved pets. It was such an amazing and rewarding experience. I can happily tend to all responsibilities needed for your pet's care, including, but not limited to: walking, sitting, feeding, brushing, bathing, clean up, some light training, playing, and lots of cuddles! Animals bring so much joy and they deserve the best care in return! (I started on Rover a few years ago, but due to a high demanding job, I ended up not being able to do as much as I wanted. I'm hoping to have a lot more opportunities this time around to meet many adorable animal friends!) My schedule may be changing due to work, but I will always make sure to prioritize your fur baby! I am available any day of the week, though the timing may vary due to my work schedule. Just let me know the timetable you are looking for and we can workout the best schedule for you and your pet(s)! I will be extremely respectful of your home and of the environment you prefer for your animals! Whether you need me to crate them at certain times, give them free reign, or keep a close watch on them -- let me know what works best for you and your furry friends, and I will make sure it's done! For their safety and the safety of your home.
About: Hello! I’ve had animals my whole life and I have had different breeds. I love them and I can confidently take care of them. I can walk, feed, train, play games, etc This will be my full time job so my attention is completely focused on your fur babies! I do online school so my schedule is very open. I have two little dogs who I love so much. I will hangout with your dogs outside and take them on walks around the neighborhood.
“Jamie is super kind, flexible and very dependable. Our dogs are well taken care of and super happy. It’s very comforting to know we don’t have to worry about our pets and our home.”
“Daniel was very good about communicating and was at ease with our three fairly big dogs right away. I felt comfortable with him in our home and the dogs and home were well cared for. I’ll definitely ask Daniel back :)”
“Mandy is the best! She watched our Rusty Dog.and stayed with him at our house. Rusty did great with her. Communicated with us and sent us pictures of Rusty! We will definitely use her again.”
About: I have 11 years dog-sitting along with Wicket since I’ve had him in 2015. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets when they are away or busy with work. The list of dogs I’ve babysat are: an Australian Shepherd mix, a Pug, a Pitbull, a Great Dane, a Chow Pei (a Shar Pei / Chow mix), and 3 Rottweilers. I work from home and I'm always available for your pet's needs and they will not be left alone for long periods of time, so they will get lots of attention. I have a small fenced yard with a shaded patio that offers shade. However, I am not offering boarding since I share spaces with other people, but, I have access to public green open spaces in the neighborhood.
“Erika is wonderful! We are repeat clients of hers. She is so kind and caring. She’s extremely communicative and sends pictures and updates regularly. I feel completely comfortable leaving my home and my pet/pets in her care. Thank you Erika!!”
About: We can transport your furry friend(s) to my home and back to yours from 8:30a to 6:30p. I’ve owned at least one dog since I was 10 and loved everyone that has came into my life. From walking, to playing, to bathing (most of the time both of us by the end of it lol) it was a joy. I do have experience caring for senior dogs and puppies. I can administer oral medication. Currently I am staying at home full time as I just had my baby at the end of October ‘25. Have occasional doctors appointments during the week or random errands. There will be very limited time pups are left unattended. My husband also helps with the dogs and can sometimes take them to the dog park in Wellington or Ault. I have a new baby as of the end of October and have 2 female dogs in the home, one is 2.5 and the other is 13, the older one sticks to herself mostly but sometimes regulates the puppies and tells them to slow it down. Both are very well socialized and do not have any issues with other dogs. We can set up a time to do a meet and greet or work through a plan of separation (if necessary!! Normally it is not) which I have practiced and am set up for. I have my backyard spilt into 2 runs as well as an isolation pen. This is to help with any entrance excitement. If a dog is really pushy at the gate they’ll be put into a different section of fencing so they don’t push out. We have plenty of toys here, and ask that bones are not brought with to prevent any issues.
“Stephanie not only accepted a late booking, but then she allowed me to extend! She is very good with animals. I felt like she was very confident with them and they were happy when we got home”
“Leah was amazing! She saved the day when our other Rover sitter cancelled less than 48 hours before our trip. She even made time to come meet us and the dogs on such short notice. This was our first time using Rover and leaving our girls with anyone other than close family but Leah did not disappoint. She communicated well and sent lots of updates and pictures/videos which put our minds at ease. She left our home clean and everything was in order when we returned. We are so thankful to have found her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Eaton is $22 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 1,339 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eaton. 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 Eaton 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 Eaton 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 Eaton 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
