“Kristen is INCREDIBLE. Our dogs absolutely adored her and they were very well taken care of. Sally has medical needs and received her medications, special meals, and all instructions were followed. She also went above and beyond to clean up Sally's spots where she got sick during her visit. Cassie is more cautious of new sitters until she warms up to them, but she loved Kristen immediately without hesitation. Kristen also sent us LOTS of photos and communication, keeping us up to current events as things progressed with Sally. We couldn't be happier with her service and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Konnie was an absolute joy to have watching our baby girl. I got lots of super cute and creative photos and updates and knew she was in great hands the entire weekend. I will definitely be having Konnie back to take care of our pup and loved how attentive she was the entire time. If you're looking for a rover - Konnie is your gal! Thanks again for everything!!!”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers, a pit bull, and cats all around! All of the animals i’ve owned have lived to senior ages, so I am aware of what may need done to love the older guys a little extra! I’m also aware of what puppy training or walking may look like. I’ve trained and raised three of my own dogs as well. I am currently working full time, but my hours may vary per day! I am available for dog walking/drop in visits early morning and afternoon/evening! Currently our day starts with a potty trip and around ten minutes of enrichment before going into kennels for work! Once I am home, we are at a park or on a walk daily! My girls eat once in the morning and once in the evening. Our evening then finishing with a final potty break and settling into bed!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love spending time with them! I walk my grandma’s dogs every week and occasionally dog-sit. I’m responsible, caring, and dedicated to making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away I’m a full time college student at Kent state, I commute there so my schedule is very open. Fridays and weekends are off from school every week and the other week days school is only a couple hours per day. My dogs have a fenced-in yard where they can safely play and get fresh air. I always prioritize pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being. I will follow your instructions carefully, make sure your dog feels comfortable, and provide plenty of attention and care while you’re away at your home
“Kyle took outstanding care of Archie and Rhea (and kept a watchful eye on our home) while we were on vacation. He asked thoughtful questions and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, both pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well-adjusted. Archie and Rhea absolutely adore Kyle—I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again for future trips.”
About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats. The last 20 years I have always had an Italian mastiff by my side, and I discovered my love of animals at a very young age. I understand the importance of patience, and an eye to detail when it comes to caring for other peoples animals, and I make sure whether I animal sit for a friend/coworker/stranger how important it is that the animals receive the best care as if they were my own. I currently work in dental care 4 days a week full time, and in my other 3 days of free time I would love to spend it helping someone care for their animals (or during my work week). I have a very easy going schedule and would love to fill up more of my free time with pets. I care for my own two cats currently I love making sure I have a set list of all the expectations needed to care for an animal that is not mine. Nothing is more important to me than making sure the owners mind is at ease while away, not interrupting the animals daily routine, and making sure they are cared for in the best way possible.

Animals are my passion and I adore caring for animals of all kinds. I am a tidy and considerate guest in your home when i come to care for your beloved pets.

About: I have been working in the veterinary field for six years now. I’ve been working with all kinds of animals. So I am willing to check in on anything from reptiles to dogs and cats! I currently work three days ( Thursday-Saturday). But I would still be able to drop in and checking on your pets! Can also make time to take them on a walk/ hike if need for the high energy doggies I currently live in an apartment so unfortunately I am unable to have other animals here. But I do have two very spoiled dogs of my own also have a leopard gecko of my own!!
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals of all ages and personalities! As a pet parent to a senior German Shepherd and four cats, I understand that every pet has their own unique needs, routines, and quirks. I have firsthand experience caring for senior pets, including those with arthritis, mobility challenges, and the need for a little extra patience and TLC. I also previously had a dog with epilepsy, so I’m very familiar with administering daily medications, maintaining consistent routines, and providing extra care for pets with medical needs. I’m also comfortable with energetic younger pets who need plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention! I’m patient, nurturing, dependable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving hands! 🐾❤️ I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week! As a pet parent myself, caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday routine. I love spending time outdoors, going for walks, and making sure my pets get plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away! As a pet parent to both dogs and cats, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, giving medications when needed and discussed beforehand, keeping their space clean, or simply spending extra time giving them love and attention. I understand that every animal has their own personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

I have been around dogs my whole life and would love to care for yours. I am currently a nurse in the area and use Rover when I am away at work so I would love to give back to the community and watch other pups while you are away! I know how difficult it is to find a trustworthy and reliable sitter and always want to treat your pups like my own! I will make sure to treat your home and pet with respect and follow all instructions left to properly care for your fur baby and make sure they get everything they need!

“Cassie was great! I was afraid my dogs might be a little standoffish because two of them take a while to warm up to people, but by the end of her night here, they all seem to be best buddies! She took great care of them and sent me many great pictures, which I really appreciate. She also sent me updates on how they were doing. She even took them outside and had play time with them. I will definitely recommend her to anyone and will book her again in a heartbeat.”
“So happy with the care Jamie gave to our 3 spoiled dogs. She went above and beyond to make them happy and ease our minds while we were on vacation. I will definitely book her again as an overnight sitter and recommend her to friends and family!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greentown
Olivia is the best, hands down one of the kindest, trustworthy & sweetest people we’ve ever met. She stayed the night & took such sweet care of our boys & made our wedding less stressful knowing our dogs were in good hands! She played fetch with them & gave them all the love possible. We will 100% book with her again & couldn’t be happier.
Gina took care of our senior dog and our 2 yr old dog for 3 days and nights while we were out of town. She was kind and attentive to them. She played with them and took the 2 yr old for walks as well. She took wonderful care of their individual needs! I would highly recommend Gina! She is very trustworthy! We’ve already asked her if she would come back again!
We are very happy with the services provided by Melissa. The dogs were well cared for and and they seemed to enjoy their time with her. We received several pictures of the dogs from her and we were notified quite often as to their well-being. We had the feeling that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. We would definitely use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Greentown is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $72 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 607 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greentown. 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 Greentown 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 Greentown 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 Greentown 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 Greentown. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
