About: I am an experienced dog care professional with over 13 years of hands-on experience! After 3 years as a dog trainer, working with everything from tiny pups to giant breeds, I’ve tackled a wide range of behavioral issues, from anxiety to aggression. I've cared for dogs since I was 10 and even worked as a vet technician at 21, gaining a solid understanding of medical procedures, medication administration, and safety protocols. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior dog needing extra attention, I'm ready to provide the love and care your dog deserves! Currently a full-time nanny and finishing my degree online, I'm looking for pet sitting opportunities to help pay off my dog’s vet bills. I’m passionate about animals and excited to offer reliable and loving care for your pets! I have a friendly pup who love to play, but she doesn’t need to join me for house sitting or any adventures unless your pets are interested and they get along well! If you would like our dogs to meet and get they along, they’re welcome to join in. I’m also experienced with behaviorally challenged dogs and happy to help them get the exercise and attention they need, whether or not they interact with my pup!
“We had another great experience with Jenna! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our fur babies. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for pups. We would definitely book with Jenna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Britney was wonderful! Very responsive and communicated (with the best photos!) throughout the time she house-sat for us. She was professional, tidy and the pups enjoyed the time with her. We're thrilled with Britney and can't wait to have her sit for us again soon!”
“Air offered to do a meet-and-greet before the booking date, was on time, was very respectful of my home, and was super sweet to my Zoey. Zoey has separation anxiety, and she was fast asleep and totally relaxed in Ari’s lap when I got home. I highly recommend Ari and will be booking her again!”
“Frenchie has sat a few times for us and always does a great job. We were running a little late leaving so we’re still home when she arrived. Both of our dogs ran to her and were so excited to see her so it’s obvious they have bonded well as they are normally reserved with people they aren’t fond of.”
“Olivia was wonderful! I came home to a happy, calm pup. I was really anxious to leave him after a bad experience with a previous sitter, but this is the happiest I’ve seen him after being away in a long time. She also took great care of the house and my flowers. I highly recommend Olivia for any pet-sitting needs!”
“Vanessa was amazing! My dog recently had surgery & I was so nervous to leave him for the night. Vanessa was super knowledgeable & made me feel so much better about leaving my pup with a sitter! She sent a ton of updates, photos, and was very communicative! She was great!”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever, and later a yellow labrador who was my best canine friend throughout my childhood and teenage years. I helped my family raise all our dogs, including another yellow lab and a Bernese lab mix. I have cared for many neighbors and friends dogs, and am able to handle a wide range of personalities. I am confident handling any size dog on a leash and will work with your dogs specific needs, including any special conditions. I am comfortable administering medication if necessary. I take care of other dogs the same way I take care of my own, with lots of love and attention. It makes me happy to see dogs smile and I love to be the reason behind that smile! I am currently in grad school, so while busy, my schedule is very flexible and I'm able to care for dogs any day of the week, any time of the day. In my home, any pets I care for will be spending time with my own dog, Skye. Outside of my home, I'm able to provide pet care with or without the addition of my dog Skye based on client preferences.
“Leilani did excellent, the dogs and cats were well taken care of. She followed our written instructions and was great at keeping us updated on how things were going. The home was taken care of very well and we will definitely book her again in the future.”
“This is the third time Emma has stayed with Goose and again we came home to a clean house and tired dog. Emma is great! We’re looking forward to having her dog sit multiple more times this year.”
About: I have experience caring for animals through more than 100 hours of work at a state park and 60 hours of volunteering at an animal shelter. I’ve also had pets throughout my life, including cats, dogs, hamsters, and fish however I just moved so I have none currently. I’m responsible, patient, and comfortable helping with feeding, attention, and everyday pet care. I am a door dasher so I’m available whenever and not tied up to a schedule! So when you need me most I’ll be there :D I care for animals by feeding and giving them water of course but most important to me is safety when my dogs got boarded it was always a problem my dogs would always come back with some type of injury and I hate that I want to provide the most safe environment possible while haveing fun with them and my experience with animal care at a animal shelter/state park has thought me a lot and how to tend to animals and my teachers were professionals!
“Lillian was absolutely wonderful as a pet sitter for a long weekend!! She kept my pup super active - I knew he was getting great care and lots of fun activity! She was very respectful of the home and left it very clean. She went above and beyond what I expected. Would 1000% rebook!”
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life spanning from kittens to elderly animals. I love and care for all animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently a full time student who lives off campus who also works three days a week. My weekends and nights are totally free with many gaps in my class schedule that would allow me to go check on your pets! I am very excited to offer whichever environment your pet enjoys most! I can be exuberant and play with your younger pups or offer a warm lap for an elderly/shy kitty to snooze on.

About: Growing up we had 3 dogs, chickens, cats and goats. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. Dogs are the best and help me get outside, I love to run and go on long hikes, and would love to be able to take care of your pup while you are away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hillman
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 402 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hillman. 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 Hillman 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 Hillman 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 Hillman 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.

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.
