Puppies had to adjust quickly to us not being home anymore but they quickly felt Chantel was family! She texts videos and photos promptly and keeps us updated with anything going on! Highly recommend.

This was my first time using Rover.com, and John was so good with my three Aussies while I was away from home for a work trip! My pups are spoiled rotten, not always well-behaved, 60lb bundles of energy (and joy), and John handled the task perfectly. Lots of pictures while I was away and daily notes about the pups on the counter when I got home. The pups and I will definitely request John again again if we need a sitter! I couldn't be happier.

Candace was fantastic with our two crazy dogs! They took to her right away at the meet and greet, which put our minds at ease. She watched them for 12 hours while we were at a family event, and they were happy, safe, and well cared for the whole time. It's clear she genuinely loves dogs and knows how to handle high-energy pups. We'll definitely be booking Candace again — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

Debra did a great job. She sent lots of videos and pictures. Both pups loved her. It’s always tough to be so far away from our 2 dogs, but we had nothing to worry about. She also came to our house before we left on vacation so we could relax and also staying till our follow up sitter came. So we were very happy with her.

About: What makes my pet sitting a little bit different is that my lab can come with me. I know how much some dogs love to have a playmate, so I thought I would bring that experience. Of course, I understand every dog is different. Before any stay, I would want to make sure our dogs are comfortable together and bringing Koda is a positive experience. I am a loving, caring, attentive, pet owner that understands pets are family. If your dog would like a four legged friend along for the adventure, we would love to meet you both! I am available early evenings for walks, and weekends for pet sitting. I work full-time serving people with disabilities in employment. My schedule can be flexible. I am happy to take dogs to the park, for long walks, or to play in your backyard. What ever makes you most comfortable. As far as my whisker friends, you deserve plenty of playtime too!

About: I have had experience with all types of animals my entire life i grew up taking care of my dog widget since i was 7 me and my dog would go to pet training class as well. As my dog had gotten older me and my family had changed our routine and home life to accommodate to my best buds last days so he would be comfortable. I also grew up pet sitting for my aunt and still do.I have owned cats and dogs as well as some smaller rodents. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly schedule because i currently don’t have work and i am studying to become a tattoo artist my day consists of drawing and studying tattooing. i love to drive around so far drives to pet sit will not bother me what so ever!! I make sure to give your pets a stress free environment and give them cuddles depending on your animals personality!! I always make sure your friends are fed on time and taken on adventures with me on a walk and take them out to potty.

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a Small and Large Animal Veterinarian and specialize in Animal Psychology and Internal Medicine/Oncology. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job on Mondays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for my pet care clients. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to accurately reflect my availability, though occasional changes may arise. If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

Rita, you are simply amazing! We cannot thank you enough for taking such care of our Knoxie boy for 2 days. Knox is a very anxious and nervous pit bull rescue. He took to Rita immediately. Knox was also having belly issues most likely from stress, and she took such good care of him. She updated me the whole time with pics etc. and spent lots of time with him. I was so stressed leaving him, but she put me at ease. We are blessed to have found Rita!

About: I am an emergency nurse 2 days a week and a mom to 2 crazy girls full time. My availability on the weekends can vary because of my nursing job. I’m available early mornings and late evenings if needed, and I have Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 8-4:30 wide open! I’ve had a dog my entire life and currently have a 7 year old rescue! I absolutely love dogs and any other animals. I’m looking for another way to make money while doing something I love. I will treat all animals as if they are my own.

I work 2 days a week and have 2 small children but I would love to spend my free time caring for your fur babies! I have a dog of my own and love spending my time with him. I love long walks or even just dropping in to ensure your loved ones are fed and comfortable! I am very good with all types of dogs no matter the size! I have personal experience with dogs who are food or toy aggressive so those will not bother me. I am comfortable with crating dogs if needed and doing whatever is needed to keep your animals safe

We cannot recommend Ronny highly enough! When another sitter backed out at the last minute, we reached out to Ronny on short notice. He responded promptly and was more than willing to come by for a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment he walked in the door, our cats were comfortable with him which is not always the case. Ronny took his time answering all of our questions and asked thoughtful questions of his own. Even though we admittedly have a very detailed list of instructions, he did an amazing job remembering all the little things and checking in regularly with messages and photos throughout his stay. It was clear that Ronny genuinely cared about making sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. He was also incredibly respectful of our home, leaving everything exactly as we left it. He even went above and beyond by offering to clear our driveway after an unexpected snowfall. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile and treats your pets like their own, Ronny is absolutely the person to book!

About: I’ve been taking care of a family friends cats and dog for a few years now! But before that I was either helping out at human society or caring for childhood friends and family pets! Im free most days of the week! I work part time at a florist, usually helping out on Fridays and weekends and also help out a catering business around three times a month. Moved my beloved kitty’s into our new house back in November, ever since we’ve been building cat walk and plan to build a catio for even more stimulation. I love to spoil mine and anyone else’s pets with love and treats, of course not to much so they maintain a healthy weight!

I’m responsible, caring, and will make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, love, and exercise while they’re with me. I work full time Monday through Friday, but I’m fully available on the weekends. During the week, I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the mornings and later in the day after work.

I’ll always make sure they are supervised and treated with patience and respect. I understand that every dog and cat is different, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality, and anything they need while they’re with me. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where your pet can feel right at home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fuhrmans Mill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Fuhrmans Mill on Rover is $38.85 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 1,255 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fuhrmans Mill. 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 Fuhrmans Mill 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 Fuhrmans Mill 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 Fuhrmans Mill 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fuhrmans Mill. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
