“Michelle is our go-to pet sitter. She’s responsible, communicative and caring. We’re grateful for the peace-of-mind we have when we leave our pup and our home in her care.”
“We were extremely pleased with the diligent care Monica provided for our 4-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She did an excellent job not only watching Jaco, but also taking great care of our home while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Monica again and highly recommend her to others.”
“She was very responsive and caring for our cats. She sent pictures and the cats seemed to like her. We also had a situation happen and she acted appropriately and professionally. Thanks Paige!”
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. There was already a cat in my home before I was born, so I’ve had animals since day 1! My family got our dog when I was 10, and I’ve helped care for her ever since, including feeding, walking, playing with her, and general daily care. I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends and neighbors. In addition, I have cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with the care, attention, and patience they need. I truly enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I can often accept same-day requests depending on availability, so please feel free to reach out! I provide attentive, loving care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, and general pet care. I’ve been around animals my entire life and truly enjoy spending time with both cats and dogs.
“Nicole did a great job taking care of our pack. She was very communicative with us. She sent pictures along the way and made sure all of our dogs were well taken care of. Left us some pictures when we got home as well to see how they did. Great experience and allowed us to enjoy our vacation stress free. Thanks!!”
“Carolina was amazing and very attentive to our cat’s needs. She provided daily updates and plenty of photos/videos. She took great care of him and will definitely book her in the future!”
About: Frequent walker that would be happy to have a dog join. I also have a backyard that I maintain all of the time for use. I do not have a dog of my own and typically only watch one dog (or two if you have two) at a time leaving your dogs needs at the priority! I work remote so will always be able to be responsive when sitting. Also have a 1000+ day 10,000 step streak so doing lots of walking currently! Handle and escalate and concerns to owner when appropriate and I feel any sorts of hesitations. Thoughtfully, decisively, and neutrally investigate Trust & Safety cases with high complexity and high sensitivity while maintaining customer satisfaction! As a reminder I do not have a fenced in yard so all outside time will be through walks!
About: I have one dog and one cat that tend to stay upstairs. I absolutely love animals, So I hope to have my own little hobby farm one day. If your pet is in my home, please know they’ll always feel loved, safe and most likely tired out from all out walks. I believe humans and animals benefit from exercise which helps with behavior, same for humans. So bring your pup to me, and they’ll be tired for you:) Also, I have a special place in my heart for special-needs animals that need a little extra love and patience. I have been doing dog-watching for the past four years, in addition to working part-time for 10 years. I work at a school right down the road, which is perfect for dog watching. I leave at 7am, and I’m back by 11am each day. I do boarding, play dates, pickups, drop-ins, and trips to the dog park. I have a fenced-in yard, so your dog may play, run, or simply get some fresh air. I spend my time walking dogs, feeding them, playing, cuddling, kisses, relaxing on the porch and constantly opening and closing the door so they can go outside. Ha! It’s my life, and I truly love it.
About: I love animals and have always had them. My friends reach out to me for pet sitting because they know I will take the best care of their fur babies! I have a teacup Yorkie and a cat so if you have a friendly pet, they are welcome to stay by me, but I am also retired so can stay by you if that's more convenient. I am very flexible! I am retired so have all day & evening to spend with your fur babies. I love to walk so would be sure to take your fur babies outside for fresh air any time of the year. I live in a safe area and have beautiful paths for dog walking any time of day. If your pet likes car rides, I love the beach & the water so could have lots of fun taking them wherever they like to go!
“Rebecca was phenomenal with my little critters! Excellent communication throughout the week and she was able to adjust last minute to needing to give my dog extra TLC and medication. I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Fatima was amazing to work with. I booked her on short notice before the holiday when my original plans fell through. She offered and made it a priority to come do a meet & greet on days notice. I’m always a little nervous when using a new sitter especially when they stay at mine, but my mind was at ease immediately when I met her. I could tell she has a big heart and really cares for animals. She followed all instructions and she went above and beyond spending time with Diesel doing his favorite activities (walks, playing fetch, swimming, etc.). She was incredibly communicative and sent a lot of pictures and videos which was much appreciated. As a former Rover sitter and a frequent user of Rover’s services, I can confidently say that Fatima is one of the best sitters I’ve come across. I will definitely be using her in the future and have already recommended her to others looking for sitters. Thank you Fatima!!!”
“Maya was AWESOME! We needed a last minute Rover to stay at our house and watch our 2 pups for a night and she was such a good fit for the job. Super communicative & sweet — we always received the cutest pupdates. Our dogs were 100% in great hands & we’ll definitely be booking with Maya in the future! 😊”
About: Over 20 years of experience, including elderly dogs and puppies. I love dogs and enjoy walks, park visits, games and couch snuggles. I know how important it is that your fluffy family members are taken care with as much love and stability as possible when you are away. I currently have a 10 month old standard poodle and she is my whole world. I understand how important this job is! I am an artist and work part time at my home studio. My flexible work schedule allows plenty of time for dog walks, park visits, play, attention and engagement throughout the day. I have a fully fenced in yard and a very friendly (well socialized) 10 month old standard poodle who loves having friends to play with. Our home is 4,200 square feet with plenty of space for dogs to play and settle in. We also have the first floor entirely puppy proofed, making it safe for even the youngest of curious explorers.
“Nicole is awesome. She sent us pictures and kept us posted on how our pups were doing. She is definitely getting a call back from us for future pup services. Highly recommended sitter 🤩”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care our three small dogs received from Abigail! They were clearly loved and well looked after — happy and relaxed when we returned. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. Our dogs can be a handful, but they were calm and content thanks to the patient, attentive care. Absolutely a **5-star experience** — we’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Hello my name is Stajia and I’m 29 years old. I work as a Medical Assistant, and am in school online for my bachelors. I have a pretty flexible schedule, and looking forward to watching your furr puppies. I grew up with dogs in my home, I’ve volunteered at the humane society dog walking, I’ve watched several family members pets. I currently work full time but I am very flexible. I travel for work so I am always stopping at home in between. I will be able to make sure your furr baby gets all of the love & attention they need. I have more than enough space in my home for your furry baby to play, relax, and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly 1-year-old dog of my own who loves having company and can help your pup feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I’m also a mom of three daughters, ages 5 months, 9 years, and 10 years old. My older girls absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them plenty of attention and affection! 🥰🐶 Your pet will be welcomed into a loving, family-oriented environment where they’ll receive lots of care, playtime, attention, and cuddles. My goal is to make your furry baby feel safe, calm, and loved while they’re away from home. ❤️🐾
About: My husband and I are workampers! That means we move every season to a new campground and work there. This time, we are at Jellystone Caledonia!! We love to have the presence of animals, since it gets boring living in a campground without an animal to walk. There is a great dog park here with great socialization opportunities (for us and the dogs 😆😆)!! I would love an opportunity to pet sit any type of fur babies, I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life!!! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!! Pet care fits seamlessly into our routine. My husband and I travel full time, which gives us a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability. We both enjoy meeting new people and animals along the way, and our lifestyle allows us to be present, attentive, and adaptable. Caring for pets fits easily into our daily life and is something we LOVE. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, litter care, playtime, and medications (if needed) are handled consistently and with attention to detail. I respect the home and keep everything clean and orderly while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Franksville
She was exceptional with my baby, Molly. Molly is normally extremely slow to warm up to people but she immediately took to Genevieve. She kept me updated with pictures and texts, followed my instructions, and most of all kept my girl safe from a murderous wasp and loneliness while I rudely went on vacation without her. There’s nothing better than a cat sitter who loves your girl as much as you do.
We are first time dog owners and we both work night shift so we were very nervous about how we would make over night work. Melissa was able to stay over while we worked. She sent us so many updates and photos that it eased our anxiety. We will definitely be booking her again!
Mel has been the absolute best sitter I’ve ever had for my dog. He looks just as happy with Mel as he does with me and his dad. I felt so assured and happy that Leo had his own little vacation. My neighbors told me they played with him outside all day, which is his favorite. 10/10 will 100% book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Franksville is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $64 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.

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 Franksville 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 Franksville 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 Franksville 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 Franksville. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
