“Jessica is awesome. Just when we started wondering how things are going with our 3mo old puppy, she sent us photos of him playing and having a great time. By the end of the stay, he was curled up in her arms on the couch - having made a new best friend. Outstanding service and a wonderful person!”
“Raquel is The OG Dog Whisperer. If you are looking for someone with the skills needed to take care of and make friends with your (old, high needs, spoiled) fur babies Raquel is the one. Highest praise and strongest recommendation!”
About: Hi there!! My name is Jillian, but you can call me Jill for short. I’ve had animals all my life, from horses, dogs, and cats all the way down to guinea pigs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have two cats of my own, one of whom is special needs, so I understand that every pet has unique personalities and needs. I am equally a dog person as I am a cat person, and everything in between! Thank you for considering me as your pet’s step-in mom, and I hope to meet you and your furry friend(s) soon!! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which I know many people aren’t fortunate to have. Whether you need someone to stop by and let your pup out while you’re at work or care for your kitties while you’re away, I’m your go-to gal! I have 2 cats that live in my apartment, and at this time I am not available for boarding in my home, just drop in visits.
About: I’m a certified dog trainer (CDTK) who uses fear free, positive reinforcement methods! I specialize with fear/aggression displays, reactivity and rescue dogs! I have over 8 years of experience in animal care and behavior. I’m passionate about all animal behavior and creating an enriching life for our companions! ❤️ I am a full time online student (pursuing my bachelors degree in animal care and behavior), so I have great flexibility for all pet care Safety is my number one priority, I value treating each animal as an individual and cater to each of their unique needs or preferences! 🐾
“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.”
“This was our first time having Brodi as our pet/house sitter but I know it won't be the last! She sent lots of pictures and kept us in the loop of everything going on at home. She was flexible when I asked if she could put a delivery in our garage when it arrived very early. She also washed her bedding and made everything ready without us even asking! (Normally we wouldn't even ask the sitter to do that!) She made fast friends with our needy cat and love on our dog who willingly went for a walk with her ... something he doesn't normally do until he knows the sitter well. All around awesome experience.”
About: I provide attentive, Active & Reliable pet care. have owned dogs for the last 15 years, and have two active dogs of my own. I have cared for colleagues and friends' dogs, with experience caring for senior dogs and training puppies. I have flexible hours in my full time job and work from home 2-3 days per week. I love to be active so any excuse for an extra walk is welcome ;) Drop in visits and dog walking are preferred but I can provide house sitting or boarding with advanced notice. I am attentive and active, and love a detailed care list to follow!
“Haley was amazing with our two babies! She kept us up to date with everything that she was doing with them and sent us pictures as well! My beagle is very anxious and gets nervous and scared easily, Haley did an awesome job making sure she was comfortable! Thank you again!”
“Kayley is a super star, very flexible and attentive to our needs as owners as well as the pets. She was kind enough to check in again on our dog when our flight was delayed, and gave them lots of good attention which my anxious Husky needs:)”
“Kristy and Wilbur were lovely housesitters! They kept Lola and Jack the cat company while we were gone and sent us fun pics of Lola playing with Wilbur and Jack hanging out. Kristy is extremely responsive and made sure to keep us updated the entire time. We will definitely be asking her to housesit again! Thanks!”
“Autumn was great with our 3 (somewhat sensitive ;) pups). Great communication throughout her visit. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone trustworthy to look after your pets. Thanks Autumn!”
“Emily was the best sitter we could have asked for! We have several animals; both dogs and cats, some with medication needs. She didn’t hesitate when we explained everything, and was more than up to the task! Our 20 year old cat, Goober, had especially specific instructions (including IV fluids), and Emily did every step we asked for, and went above and beyond. She understood how difficult it was to leave Goober at this point in his life (end stage renal disease) and made making him as comfortable as possible at all points in time a huge priority. She communicated frequently, sent tons of pictures, and made our wedding time completely peaceful knowing everyone was taken care of. Our home was completely perfect getting back to and she left a very sweet “just married” card for us. She will be our go-to for all of our future house-sits.”
“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.”
“Crystal watched over our energetic GSD and home while we were on a trip. She is very professional and knowledgeable, we felt so much more comfortable knowing she was there while we were gone. We received daily updates and photos, which we loved, and when we returned our home was clean and well cared for and our dog was happy. We would definitely love to have Crystal back in our home next time we are away!”
About: I’ve grown up with six dogs total, five cats, three hamsters and two fish , each animal has my heart. I have always loved meeting my family, friends and neighbors cats, fishes, dogs, and more.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eaton
Riannon was an amazing dog sitter! She spent most of the time at our house with our dogs, only leaving for her short work shifts. She sent me daily photos, which was such a comfort while we were away and missing them. She also kept the house in excellent condition—even with two labs, which can be a challenge! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Eaton on Rover is $22.48 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,358 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 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.
