“Jessica was amazing with our dog and took such great care of our home while staying with him. Everything was spotless when we returned, and she was incredibly flexible when we needed to extend our trip by an extra day. We truly appreciated her reliability and kindness. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Our pets had a wonderful time with Chris. He took great care of them and followed our instructions very well. He was very responsive while we were away and was able to help us when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. We recommend him highly.”

“Kendra was great. She watched two dogs for us and she was very responsive and adaptable to our crazy schedule changes. She sent us pictures/ videos of the dogs while we were gone too. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for dog care!”

“Halle took such great of our dogs! She kept in touch with texts and photos multiple times a day. My husband and I felt so relaxed knowing our doggos were well taken care of. When we got home the dogs looked great and were so happy to see us; we knew we left them in good hands ( no cold shoulder).”

“We were so impressed with how well Quinn managed our dog Kona. She is a large dog who is not always friendly to strangers. She was confident and patient and had Kona eating out of her hand in short order. What a relief! I am so grateful to her for the photos and updates throughout my time away.”

About: I am a professional actor and aspiring pet caretaker new-ish to the Cleveland area! Pet care is one of the many side hustles I have taken on since graduating college and beginning my acting career. It can be challenging to find jobs that are easy to hop right back into in between or even on top of my performing jobs, so what better place to work than as a caretaker for your pet? Considering my background in theatre and a lifetime of caring for the many dogs and cats my family owned growing up, you can consider me a reliable, loyal, and trustworthy caretaker for your sweet fur babies. I will quickly and easily match their energy and I can assure you that your pet(s) will remain safe and happy! In my childhood and teen years, my family took on multiple pets - cats and dogs of all ages. I was a responsible caretaker for my family, ensuring to pay close attention to the pet’s needs and behavior and always letting my parents know if I noticed an issue. Our pets remained happy and healthy, and I moved away from home only to adopt a six week old kitten myself! My cat, Kirby, is now a happy and healthy three year old who lives among two other cats that I successfully socialized him with. Needless to say, my caretaking methods are effective and rehearsed, beginning from a young age and continuing into my adulthood. I am so looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies, and I’m ever so excited to be of the utmost assistance I can be to you. By hiring me, you are helping a young actress make her way in the beginnings of her career and filling her heart by allowing her quality time with your pets! I currently am working as a teacher and a server. My schedule varies week to week, but I am happy to rearrange my schedule when possible to accommodate to your pet care needs! I am happy to bring along any supplies of my own that would make our time easier! I am also happy to follow any routine you already have in place and comfortable with looking in your home as much as you would allow me to use supplies you may already have.

About: In GOOD HANDS! I've been raising our own AKC Labrador Retrievers puppies since 2009, plus taken care of the ones we've boarded back over the years. We do ENS, puppy therapy, housebreaking, & MORE! You can rest-assured yours will be given the same level of care as our own lovable Labradors, experienced with puppyhood to elder care. We know labs and literally thought of everything to keep your pet safe while in our care. From multi-level safety systems like heating/ cooling/ backups in case of failures, cameras, nightly checks, spacious 1.5 acre six-foot tall fenced play yards with no dig, cement block under gates, gated and fenced drop-off points, secure commercial playground equipment, handicap ramps so elderly dogs can safely access our outdoor play yards, sanctioned & fenced areas for small breed dogs with overhead protection & triple fences, to even our summer doggie splash pad, you can relax on your vacation or focus on work while they are enjoying their own Doggy Daycation! We provide at no additional cost: medication, if needed, special food prep, chew proof kuranda beds, BOTH INDOOR/ OUTDOOR ACCESS from their kennel AND we take them out every 4 hours for 10-15 minutes for personalized playtime and potty breaks! We also have a private, fenced Rover Romp we can bring pets for off-leash romps that's bookable to you as well on rain-free days & in good weather. My husband & I do this full-time along with our 12 year old daughter who sometimes helps with young puppies / friendly & cats when they are being boarded only! We let them out every 3-5 hours to play throughout the day. Our kennels boast chew proof Kuranda beds with covered indoor/ outdoor runs, separate play yards with additional protective fencing for small breed dogs, and separate areas for elderly dogs. We built 2 kennel wing add-ons to our home with kuranda beds, covered indoor / outdoor runs, 6' fenced play yards & more. We provide same, if not better level of care to our doggy daycationers as we do to our Champion AKC Labradors. In your home, your pets will be appropriately treated (literally) and all requests followed. For house overnight sitting, I will take out trash, clean up any messes dog makes, try to keep them entertained so they don't make messes, feed/ give medication as scheduled, wash & clean bowls daily, brush & vaccuum prior to leaving. I will not leash walk any untrained dog (unless small breed) so must have fenced yard or will walk dog on leash in a yard with an electric fence. I can take dogs to our premise for a Rover Romp - a private 1/2 fenced yard with commercial playground (dry, non rainy days) & splash pad (during summer months). We require UTD vaccinations, including Bordetella, & proof of flea/ heartworm prevention. We clean & sanitize between dogs with Kennosol that kills parvo & other viruses, and each night yards are sprayed to prevent any parasites.
“Allyce did a fantastic job watching my dog and cat while my boyfriend and I were away for nearly a week. They loved her! They played and snuggled together which is just what they needed. She sent pictures everyday and gave updates along the way. Highly recommend.”


“Amanda is amazing! They are so happy and comfortable with her. She supports the needs of the 5 month old puppy and the 13 year old dog (and the cat) with love and structure. Her years of experience with dogs really shows!”

“My dog, Bogey, is a nervous goldendoodle who has a hard time trusting people. He also has separation anxiety. I was very cautious about who would be watching him overnight. Donavyn was very patient with Bogey and earned his trust quickly. He was not only great with our dog, he was very respectful in our house and cleaned up after himself and about. Bogey felt very safe with Donavyn. If you are looking for someone to walk, drop in, or overnight pet sitter, I highly recommend Donavyn.”


About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid and I love watching all animals. I groom, walk, train and reward them. I can handle stressful situations with many types of animals. Im currently working part time so there’s worry about my schedule I work around it easily. When scheduling I take into account my own animals as well and don’t take on more than I can handle. I take my 2 dogs for walks everyday they get baths when dirty and are very well trained. I handle fights and defiance camly and try to correct them without confusing them more or intensify the situation. I work with scared and timid cats and high energy cats. I love working with exotics and that’s my passion.
“Abbey & James sat for me at my home while on a week long trip out of the country. They took amazing care of my dog Zoey and home. They provided lots of updates and took Zoey on many adventures. She liked them so much she was looking for them in the guest room the day after I returned. I will happily have them sit again in the future.”

All requests on how you'd like me to care for your fur babies are welcome. I live a minute away from a park and have a pet clinic up the street. My goal is to provide comfort for your pets and peace of mind knowing they will be loved and taken care of😊 I have a very flexible schedule since I work part-time and do college online. I have my own dog who I care for full-time. I am able to get multiple walks in for your pet or spend my time indoors with them if they are older. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog. I have a crate available if needed. I am comfortable with giving medication and can handle stronger dogs. Your pet can sleep wherever they choose.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Grafton is $21 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $21 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 Grafton 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 Grafton 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 Grafton 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
