“Samantha took wonderful care of our 2 cats and 2 dogs! She made sure we were kept up to date on everything happening and went above and beyond in her level of care. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!!”
“Katie was excellent with our pets! We have an anxious doggie and two cats and she was communicative and caring through her time with them. We were very comfortable leaving them with her!”
“April is truly a dog whisperer! She watched my two Yorkies at my home, and I couldn't be more impressed. One of my dogs, Dawson, has severe separation anxiety and usually takes a long time to trust strangers. To my total shock, it was love at first sight for him—he didn't even care when I left! April took wonderful care of my fur babies and even went above and beyond by leaving my house spotless. Finding someone Dawson trusts is rare, and I’ll definitely be booking April again.”
“This was my first booking with Rover and if Tonia is an example of the quality and compassionate pet sitters....we will be back! Tonia was prompt, kind, attentive and a life-saver (last minute scheduling request). We couldn't have had a better experience. Thank you Tonia and Rover! From Tucker's mom & dad.”
“Jen was amazing!! I think our Stats is depressed that she is gone lol. I would love to have Jen back the next time we go out of town. She sent pictures and videos which were so much fun to see!! I soooo appreciate her!!!”
“Emma was amazing! She followed my very detailed instructions perfectly and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She sent lots of pictures and updates, left my house spotless, and even noticed that my older dog seemed a little off. She let me know right away and kept a close eye on him, which I really appreciated. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I will absolutely use Emma again without a doubt. Highly recommend!”
“Alex did a fabulous job with our very picky kitty! Very responsive and incredibly helpful with our many requests! Thank you so much for everything Alex and we can’t wait to have you take care of Zelda again!”
“100% recommend Kathleen!! She treats your pet like her own. Very respectful of our home. Took our dog on a walk every night & fed our fish. It’s hard for us to take a vaca & leave our baby at home, Kathleen made the process easy.”
“Austin took great care of our dog, Zeke, while we were away. It was such a relief knowing Zeke was in good hands, and we came back to a happy pup and a clean, well-kept house. We would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a pet/house sitter!”
About: Most of my pet care has consisted of looking after my late, elderly, miniature schnauzer. Since then I have enjoyed helping my family take care of two, 2 year old Australian Shepherd mixes. I’ve also used Trusted Housesitters and cared for two German shepherds and two bengal cats on multiple occasions. My schedule allows for me to change my routine as needed. I understand pets have routine and may need to be on a regular schedule. I can care for your pets in your home by following their routines, entertaining and playing with them, and giving them love and attention. I am not able to care for pets in my home at this time.
About: Hi! I'm Shosuke from Batavia, OH. I've been pet sitting for over 3 years and love spending time with dogs and cats! I have experience in dog sitting, dog walking, administering medicine, and feeding. I currently have a German Shepherd named Cosmos and used to have a Pomeranian named Ponta, so I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes. I'll treat your furry friends like my own! Feel free to send me a message-I'd love to help! I work from home with a super flexible schedule, so taking care of your pup fits right into my daily routine! Since I'm around all day, your pup will get plenty of companionship, fun play breaks, and all the walks they need! Whether at my home or yours, I make sure your pup feels comfortable and truly cared for. I love spending quality time with them, keeping up with their usual routine, and making sure they have a happy, relaxed day!
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”
“Ashley did a great job watching our pups. Communication was fantastic… pics and texts, as we’d discussed up front. She even checked on our chickens when the weather became unseasonably warm! Thanks Ashley!”
“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”
About: I have 4 dogs of my own and have pet sit once when I was 13. I love dogs and would love to care for you furry friend. I can travel far but wouldn't like to drive more than 45 mins. I currently do not have a job so I have plenty of time and availability to take care of your furry friends,I am mostly interested in dogs because I'm am allergic to cats. I make sure they have fresh water each day,if its hot out twice a day,I have a dog named Ellie which I could bring if you didn't care or if you wanted your pup to have a friend to play with as I clean and make sure everything is perfect.
“Michayla is fabulous. My pup has a special diet and takes medicine and Michayla always does what is needed. Lou gets excited whenever she comes to care for him. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life ever since I was a kid! Whether it's been my own pups through the years, or family and neighbors dogs, I've always strived to love and care for them just like my own! Small dogs, large dogs, seniors or puppies, you can trust me to provide the best possible care for them! If it’s cats that you have in any way, either a dog and a cat or just cats, don’t worry, I can still help there! I am more than willing to take care of any cat! Though I’ve never owned cats personally, I have had experience in being around them and cat sitting here and there! Cats are great and full of such varied personality, I’m always more than happy to watch them and to care for them! I also have experience in housesitting! Do you need your flowers watered? Mail checked? You can depend on me there too! I can also provide you with photos of your pet! So you never miss your best friend! Whether you need me to stay home with your pet, check in, or go on a walk with them, I promise to care and love them, only the best for your pet! Right now, it's the summer before college for me, and for you that means excellent, open availability for your pet care needs! Whether it’s a morning check-in, afternoon walk, or overnight housesitting, my schedule is very flexible! The only scheduling conflict that happens every week is on Tuesdays, I give private instrumental lessons! If your pet has an established routine, if you let me know, I can follow it! If I have any other plans that interfere with my commitment to caring for your pup, I promise to let you know. It's important to be honest! I can follow established schedules, clean, and be trusted to care for your dog/cat! To people who love dogs and cats, they are best friends and give the warmth of companionship, and more than that they are family. I promise to treat the valued member of your family with the utmost care and respect. When walking your dog, I will always keep them leashed. One of the best ways to keep dogs safe outside near roads and urban areas is to do just that. I’ll make sure all doors are locked when at the home and when going, for the safety of your pet, you, and your home. You can depend on me.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hamersville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 721 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hamersville. 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 Hamersville 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 Hamersville 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 Hamersville 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.

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.
