About: I was raised in rural Georgia with an assortment of animals- cats, dogs, horses, chickens, goats, fish, cows, birds. My parents raised Bassett Hounds and Yorkies. I am experienced in puppies and elderly animals as well- even diaper changing!! I have ALWAYS had an animal in my care!! I worked for 30 years in the healthcare field, so caring for any injury or illness will be considered as well I am currently retired. I am looking for ways to stay busy. Although I care for 3 dogs now- I still find myself with extra time everyday! My preference would be to care for your pet(s) in your home, however I am willing to move them to my home if needed. I will have you provide a routine for me that will best suit your pets daily needs.

“She was wonderful. My babies loved her and so did I. If I ever need this service again she is the one I want. She stayed in my home with my 2 Babies and a lot of outside flowers Dogs fell in love with her and not one dead plant. She was perfect for the job.”
“Elisa is absolutely wonderful! This is the second time she has come to our home to watch our pets and has done a great job. She was even sick and had to go to the er but that didn’t stop her from taking care of them! I had no back up as we are still new to all of this. She assured me she was able to keep taking care of our pet and she did a great job. I don’t know what I would do without her! We love you Elisa! Thank you so much!!!”

“Monroe did an amazing job taking care of my dogs and was very flexible. I have a lot of anxiety leaving them and she did a good job checking in and letting me know how they were doing. Definitely would book with her again!”
About: Ever since I was a child, I was responsible for the care of a variety of animals, and I mean solely responsible. Growing up (and today), I was the one that friends and family came to for pet sitters and care/training advice. I prioritize following pet care instructions to a tee- I do not cut corners on even the most “meticulous” of care instructions. With me, you can trust that your fur babies will receive the highest quality of care and attention because of my intrinsic love for animals. My days vary a lot, but I am often able to make time if you give me a week’s notice. If you need urgent pet care, do not hesitate to reach out. I cannot promise that I will 100% be available, but I will make the time if I have it. Honestly, I prefer to play by the owner’s rules when caring for their pets. Besides that, I refuse to take anything but a gentle approach with the pets. I am very careful to only administer treats/toys as the owner instructs.
“Amy watched our girls last minute for a week vacation. We have two large dogs (55lb and 75lb) which she did an amazing job with. She sent us updates daily to let us know how they were doing. I would highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! Caring for animals has been second nature to me for as long as I can remember. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I’ve lovingly looked after both my own pets and others’ for years. I welcome detailed instructions and will always follow your preferences to ensure your fur baby feels safe, happy, and at ease. I have experience with all breeds and temperaments, and I specialize in senior pet care. My own pup is 14 years old, so I understand the extra love, patience, and attention they need. I also know that some pets need a little time to warm up to new people, and that’s completely okay. I’m respectful of their pace. Before any drop-ins or vacation care, I highly recommend scheduling a meet-and-greet or a walk so your pet can get to know me in a familiar environment. This helps build trust and ensures a smoother experience for everyone involved. You’ll never feel out of the loop! I love sending regular updates and plenty of cute photos, because I know how important it is to stay connected when you’re away from your best friend. I’m here to give your pet the same level of love and attention I’d want for mine. Looking forward to meeting you both soon! I have no schedule on the weekends but I try my best to be flexible through the weekdays. I am solely here to help you get the care your pet needs while your working or even away for vacation. Within my home, my dog is free range due to being house trained. Your instructions will never be too detailed for me! I will follow your instructions to the tea. Just let me know what all you need for me to do :)
“Tyler was amazing! The pups didn’t seem to miss us at all. She was attentive and provided photos frequently without any prompt. Will definitely be using her again for our pups.”
“Absolutely amazing! I booked last minute for a holiday weekend and Shalah was great! She stayed in contact and was very easy to work with. If I was staying in the area longer I would definitely book with her again!”
“Ben was great. Took care of our babies as well as we could have and they were sad when he left. We have already booked him again and will do so as often as he is available in the future.”
“Christina was great. We have three unique personality dogs. A 15 year old chi, a new rescue goldendoodle with some trust issues and an 100lbs energetic Doberdoodle. I missed them so much but our vacation was better with morning and evening pics and messages ensuring us our babies were safe and happy. Highly recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Huber Heights
Tatum was SUPER responsive and amazing with our pets. She sent photos regularly and reported smaller household things when needed. Huge glowing star: our litter robot broke the morning of our trip. She checked it every few hours to make sure it was good and running.

FAQs for House Sitting - Huber Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Huber Heights on Rover is $43.29 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 523 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Huber Heights. 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 Huber Heights 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 Huber Heights 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 Huber Heights 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.
