“Maggie is awesome! She kept us updated with pictures and notes every day we were away. Our dog, Lucy, seemed to get along really well with her dog, Willow. It was really sweet to see them play together in videos. I would definitely trust Maggie to take care of our pets again.”
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs as pets pretty much my entire life! I’m currently in school, but back home I have two dogs, Charlie and Ella! Additionally, I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 6 years with experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, from puppies up to seniors, and all sizes, from french bulldogs up to great danes! Additionally, my own dog back home has a seizure disorder and requires his medication at precisely the same time everyday so I have extensive experience caring for those with medical needs and understand the importance of it! I'd love to get to know you and your fur baby and help out however I can! I’m currently in school and looking for a way to get my pet fix in since I no longer get to see my dogs everyday! I’m available all-day on weekends and for check-ins during the week in the early mornings, at lunch time, in the late afternoons, and in the evenings. If you see a day in my schedule blocked off for any reason, please feel free to reach out anyway as I can typically make it work and help out! I will come to your home and care for your pet in the environment they feel the most safe and comfortable! I know every pet is different so whether they need feeding, walking, playtime, or just some cuddles, I'll be there!
“Once again Ashlyn did a wonderful job taking care of my three rambunctious pitties! They are always so happy to see her, and we get all the photos sent to us while away to see the pups :)”
“Stephanie was a wonderful sitter - she was quick to reply to us, even for a last-minute request, and provided us with frequent text/photo updates just how we like it. We came home to a clean apartment and a happy pup. We’d love to have her take care of our dog again!”
“I'm extremely pleased with the overall care that Erin provided my two kitties while I was away on vacation. Erin was super communicative throughout her stay and I really appreciated the pictures and updates. She provided medication administration for one of my cats twice a day and followed my instructions for both cats perfectly. She truly allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying about anything back home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent sitter and look forward to booking her for future stays!”
“Stephanie was very responsive and took really good care of Indi. She gave us daily updates and left the house clean. Would book again and recommend her to friends and family.”
“Janel did an excellent job caring for my fur family. My dog is usually very anxious, but she made him feel comfortable and at ease. She even bonded with my very nervous cat, which was impressive. All of my other cats were well cared for as well. I highly recommend her for pet sitting!”
“Jen was outstanding with Penny. She came to meet her ahead of time to learn her habits. The stay went well, good communication and lots of pics. She is very calm and gentle. Jen stayed at my house and was the perfect guest giving Penny great attention. Highly recommend.”
“Cassandra was great with my two senior dogs. They got plenty of attention and snuggles. She seemed very comfortable with taking care of them. The house looked great , also, when I got home. I will not hesitate to use Cassandra again, if I have a need.”
About: I am a dog mom to 2 of my own dogs! I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I will provide personal care for your pets. I am available for walks and check in visits afternoons/evenings through the week and open availability on the weekends. I do hold a full time job during the day Monday-Friday. I only care for pets in the clients homes! I make sure to check all doors and gates before and after walks to make sure everything is closed and locked.
“Mona was fantastic! My boyfriend and I felt so comfortable and confident leaving our anxious dog with her and she took great care of him. Looking forward to booking with her again sometime!”
“Sabrina has watched our pets twice now, and each time did a great job watching over our animals. We know our little puggle can be a handful from time to time, but she seems to really love spending time with him and taking him out to the dog park if weather allows. Sent pictures throughout the day and provided updates. The house was was just the way we left it when we got home! For our second stay, Sabrina was a livesaver by being available last minute as well. We definitely will be reaching out to her again the next time we need someone to watch our furry friends!”
About: I'm new to pet sitting but not new to loving dogs and cats! I have 3 fur babies (pups). Dora, Rosie, and GG and they are my world along with my husband of course! 😊 I am also a Board of Trustee member for Columbus Humane as I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. I've spent 25 years in leadership in the intellectual and developmental disability field. I'm currently launching my own consulting business that allows me flexibility to earn extra income snuggling with your pets! I will treat your pets like my own which means lots of love, walks, and treats! I am currently starting my own consulting business so my schedule is very open. I go to the gym 3 days a week around noon for an hour. Otherwise, I have lots of availability. As a dog mom who is super protective of my pups ever getting out of our yard, I will ensure I follow all instructions to make sure your pet is safe at all times. All 3 of my pups have their own needs as they are all seniors so I'm comfortable with special diets, medication, or any other needs your pet may have.
“Selena was great with Zoey. She had great communication and sent photos throughout her stay which really helped us feel reassured that she was being taken great care of. We’d definitely use selena again and highly recommend her.”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing!! She was so kind and loving with Bodi and left my place cleaner than I had it! 100% recommend and will definitely be asking Lauren to help again in the future!”
About: I love dogs! I’ve always loved them. When i got my first dog at 8 I was terrified. I would scream and jump on the toilet. She wasn’t even the size of my backpack lol. As the years went on I grew not only a pet but a sister! She was there for me even when i didn’t think i needed her. I want to give your pet the same love I gave to her! Right now i have a mini golden doodle. She is a very special dog lol. She gets on my nerves but i wouldn’t trade her for anything. She’s always doing different things to keep me on my toes. I would make sure that your dog is properly cared for. Whether that is playing fetch with them or taking them for a walk. I live in an apartment that has a huge field. They will get the proper exercise for sure. I love to run with them.

Caitlin watched my dog for a full week during a level 3 snow emergency and still made sure he got safe exercise, stayed warm, and was well looked after. She provided regular updates, great communication, and total peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again. 🐾❄️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Kileville is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $60 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,460 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kileville. 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 Kileville 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 Kileville 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 Kileville 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.
