“Anthony always takes great care of my German Shepard and cat. I have a bi-polar older German Shepard that is not great with new people he took to Anthony quick which made me ease my mind. I will definitely be using him.”
“River is a wonderful dogsitter! He is professional and communicative. Our dog is generally slow to warm up to people but was asking River for pets by the end of Day 1. Our dog has separation anxiety and when our flight got cancelled, River went above and beyond to make sure our dog was taken care of during the unexpected extra day that it took for us to get home. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for dog. We will absolutely be booking River again!”
“Elizabeth was great with our two crazy dogs this weekend! They warmed up to her pretty quick and could tell they were comfortable. She left everything the way she found it and will definitely have her sit our dogs in the future!”
“Ally is wonderful! She did such a great job with our three attention-loving goldens and gave us complete peace of mind while we were on our trip. We loved the sweet updates and really appreciated her attentiveness (she even reached out to ask about pain management for one of our senior goldens when she started looking stiff after fetch). Highly recommend and won’t hesitate to book with Ally again!”
“Victoria was great with our cats. For 2 weeks she cared for them, stayed overnight, brought our Culligan water bottles in, and left our home ice and neat. We are very pleased with Victoria and recommend her for others.”
“Abby was great! We had to book a last minute stay and she was able to accommodate. She did great with our girls and they stayed on their normal routine without interruption. We would be happy to have her back!”
About: My philosophy is to provide your pets care and attention as if they were my own. I have provided care for friends, family, and hired to walk, dog/house sit, check in etc. ranging from puppies through senior pets who might need extra care and support. I am accustomed to providing individualized care to multiple animals as specified by owners. I am currently in graduate school to be an occupational therapist! I am happy to work with you to find what works for us both! I do a lot of studying and reading which can be with your pets. This also means I need breaks and movement, which I can do in alignment with your pets schedules! I will follow the owners care instructions to a T on their do’s and don'ts! I also like to ask questions as needed to ensure your home, pets, and myself are safe and in tip top shape throughout!
“Ehlana went above and beyond for our cats. First time here for Ehlana, tornado sirens went off, she got herself, cats, food, water, and bedding to the basement and back when safe. Her care for our cats was exemplary for the rest of her stay. Very responsible and dependable sitter . Highly recommend!”
“Bailey did an amazing job with Brandy! I had never left her alone with someone who wasn’t family, and Brandy can be a bit anxious, so I was nervous, but Bailey did great with her. She sent lots of photos and let me know when she was coming and going from my place. Brandy got put on medication the day before I left which she took in stride. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs since around age nine after my sister stopped being the go-to sitter. My family has had dogs my whole life and only recently decided to take on a cat as well. Said cat is not a fan of our dog Kora, but I have hope! My childhood dog, Scout, was my best friend and I learned a lot about caring for senior pups with her. I am dedicated to helping pet parents feel comfortable with their sitter because, seriously it is scary to leave our pets! I am a part time employee at Hy-Vee. My work schedule is varying so I tend to have a very flexible schedule! I graduated from Hickman High School this year and will be attending Central Michigan University for college. I will have limited availability during the school year but hope to continue caring for pets over breaks! I make it my priority to give pets extra attention (if desired) while their family is away! Potty breaks can be as much or as few as thought necessary. I keep a close attention to detail and will follow any special instructions no matter how silly or difficult they may be. Every pet needs different care and I want to make a plan that will work for everyone involved!
“Anna was wonderful! She was very accommodating of my busy schedule to get a meet and greet in virtually before her stay with my pets, and was available on short notice in this instance. She sent pics and updates, and my pets were happy and healthy upon my return! Would 100% rebook.”
“It was great having Kennedy taking care of Kushi! She was so kind and lovely with him. She treated and played with him as he was of her own! I would be definitely working with her again in the future :)”
“Donna was great! She replied promptly to text and emails. Took the time for a meet up even though it was only a one-night booking. Donna was flexible and easy to work with. Our dogs, Rufus and Star would love to have her for another sleepover. We would definitely use her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Harg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Harg on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 220 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harg. 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 Harg 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 Harg 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 Harg 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 Harg. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 88% 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.
