About: I graduated with a degree in animal science from the University of Wisconsin- River Falls in 2023. I've been dog/ cat sitting for years, I grew up with 2 family labs and I have trained 3 service dogs through a non-profit company down in Madison. Whether I'm hanging out with a high-energy pup or a senior dog who just wants a comfy spot and some company, I always adjust my care to match their needs. I am big on routine, clear communication and creating a calm, positive environment while you're away. Lastly and most importantly, I treat every dog like they're my own: with patience, respect, and plenty of love. I’m available for pet care during mornings and afternoons, with consistent availability throughout the week. While I don’t accommodate last-minute bookings, I’m happy to schedule in advance to ensure your pet gets the attention they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or afternoon playtime, I’ll work with you to create a routine that keeps your pet happy and comfortable. I specialize in caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure while you are gone. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I’m respectful of your space, keep things clean, and always provide regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet (and your home) are in good hands. My goal is to make your time away as smooth as possible—for both you and your furry family member
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was a child. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends and family over the past 5 years-in many capacities: day visits, overnight, single and multiple dogs, different age ranges, breeds and dog walking. I don’t have a lot of cat sitting experience but have friends/family who have cats. I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I’m available more flexible on those days. Weekends and weeknights, I’m a bit more flexible to care for pets overnight or provide drop-ins throughout the day. I have no pets in my house, so your pet(s), will get my full attention. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but am able to use lines if needed, I also have space to kennel your pet if needed. My house is a split level, so I have stairs to get to either floor of the house. My parents do have dogs (in a different household), so if you pets don’t get along with other dogs please let me know.
About: I have had cats since I was born and my whole life have helped take care of them. My life passion is cats and I currently have two of my own. I have experience in administrating oral, topical and injectable medications and have experience with cats with many personalities. I am working full time, so my availability varies, but send me a message and see if I’m available! I’ll do my best to accommodate :) I am always respectful of other people's spaces and act as I would like others to act while they are in my home. I always treat animals with care and respect and do what I can to make sure that they are comfortable.
“Amazing! Everything we were hoping for as we went through a stressful life change. Provided us with a peace of mind knowing that our home and our animals were being taken care of and were safe. Will definitely be the first person we think of when/if we need help again, a great person to have in your village!”
About: I currently work full-time in ABA, which has helped me become very patient, attentive, and dependable. I’ve had pets since I was 15 and currently have a cat named Cleo, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. My schedule is also pretty flexible, with some availability during the day. I would treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work full-time in ABA, but my schedule is pretty flexible and I have some availability during the day. I would love to use my free time to care for your pup or cat when needed! I’m happy to work pet care into my daily or weekly routine based on your pet’s needs and schedule. I will always uphold the standards that keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I’ll follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions. I want every pet to feel cared for and comfortable while their owner is away.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life ever since I can remember. All shapes and sizes, all ages. Whatever is needed will be provided and then some. I hope I can be of service and can’t wait to help! My schedule is very flexible. I’m able to be wherever is needed. Whatever is best for your prt and your family is what will be given. Individualized and personalized care is my top priority. I’m very eager to learn how I can be of service to your pet and families needs.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have cared for all kinds, from little dachshunds to big Belgian Malinois (including retired police dogs). I’m confident handling different personalities and energy levels, and I always treat pets like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work full‑time, Monday through Friday, from 9–5, and I occasionally work overtime on the weekends. Because of that schedule, most dogs may be alone for up to 8 hours during a workday. I don’t host pets in my own home, but I’ll happily come to yours so your pets stay comfortable in their own space. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
“Michelle is warm, comforting, and calm. She was so good with our very traumatized Beagle rescue that he was able to relax and be a dog like he is with us. That has never happened before Especially after the first meeting! My husband and I are so very grateful to her and so happy to have her as a member of our family!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 241 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Henrysville. 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 Henrysville 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 Henrysville 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 Henrysville 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
