“We just got back from a trip and Brenda was our house and animal sitter. She always takes such great care of our pets (1 dog and 2 cats) and our home. I cannot say enough good things about her. We have already reserved her for our next trip. Thanks so much, Brenda!”
“Ruby house say for our 2 boys for a little over a week. She took great care of our dogs and our home, I have already booked her for another trip we have planned. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Samantha is a very good worker. She is very responsable and she is always on time. She took care of Rokko very well and Rokko was very happy since the first moment. We appreciated her work very much.”
“Christina was great! She was punctual, communicative and ensured our girls were comfortable and safe throughout her stay. She gave periodic updates and asked questions as needed. We came home to happy girls! Thanks again, Christina”
“Lizzie was a great in-home option for us while we were away for a few nights. I wasn’t concerned about our dogs while we were away and appreciated coming home to happy dogs! Thanks, Lizzie!”
“Karina was amazing with our pup! She sent frequent updates and pics and even bought her little treats. She was incredibly flexible with our dates and times, and went above and beyond any sitter we’ve ever had- both for our dog and kids. And super affordable. Highly recommended!!!”
“Mara is absolutely amazing. She is caring to a fault, very professional, responsive and dependable. We left our kitty and pup with her for the weekend where Mara house sat for us, and they were happy, exercised, and loved on. It made our first trip away from our pets easy and stress-free. Thank you for all you do!”
“Audrey was so fantastic with our cat and dog! Would definitely have her back again. She was communicative and took great care of them both. Our dog ended up having a surgery before we left which meant some additional care for him during the time we were away and Audrey handled that perfectly. Our cat decided to give her the slip on the last day and ran outside. Audrey made an extra trip back to our house later in the day and enticed her back into the house with some treats and wet food which was so appreciated. Thank you!!”
“Josh was great! He was responsive to our needs. Athena was very at ease with him and he took her on a couple of runs. We will definitely use Josh the next time we leave town!”
“Kayden was communicative and respectful of our space. He took the time to come meet us and Charley before the scheduled house sit which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy and chilled out pup. Would recommend Kayden!”
“Once again, Jesse is incredible with our pets. She cares for them just like we would, and I couldn’t leave them with anything less than that level of love and care. Thank you Jesse for being awesome!”
“Jessica was wonderful! She went out of her way to make my dog comfortable! Her communication was outstanding, she really went above and beyond. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Cassie was wonderful! We had no worries, as we were gone for 11 days. She stayed at our home, so it didn’t stress out our dog, Zoe. Cassie was very proactive with asking detailed questions about her and just genuinely concerned about all her needs. She even suggested coming over for some visits prior to our vacation, so Zoe could get use to her. Highly recommend!!?”
“Louisa was excellent! She was so thorough in our meet and greet making sure she was aware of any and all needs Ollie might have. Ollie loved her right away which made me feel very comfortable. Louisa was great at communicating and sent pictures during the sit which I appreciated. Highly recommend her and will certainly have her care for Ollie in the future!”
About: I have lived with dogs my whole life, starting my animal loving journey. I had such a great time that I went into farm animals, and eventually got my own cats! I don’t discriminate from dogs, cats, pigs, cows, fish, or anything else. I am an organized care taker, being able to maintain strict medical care schedules and creating fun enrichment. I have a flexible schedule, with early mornings, afternoons, and evenings available. Weekends are on the table too! I will be starting my masters in August, so then my schedule will be a bit more 9-5, still leaving large availability for your fur baby. I can do any care tasks or rituals that make your pet feel most comfortable while you’re busy. Whether it be a certain walk route, a favorite toy or game, a cool release word, or some simple lounge time, I can meet the need!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maple Bluff
Katie was an amazing sitter for our 20 week old puppy, Hutch. She kept him to a schedule that ensured the right amount of rest for his growing limbs and plenty of engagement for his growing brain and social skills. We came home to a happy, healthy boy. She was so great about updating us on his day and introducing him to neighbors. She also kept an eye on the house, kindly ensuring all was well for our weekend away. 11 out of 10 for Katie!
We are incredibly happy with the care Robert provided Max. Max was fed, loved, and given treats. He was walked and had time in the backyard every day. Robert provided photos and notes daily, and even though I didn't think I needed them my heart sure did! I sincerely hope the next time we are looking for care, Robert is available and willing.
Ayomi was so amazing!! She stayed at my apartment with my attention needy angel and gave me the best peace of mind while I was away on vacation. Sending pictures and updates daily and was always prompt to respond if I had any questions. She also made a point to ask questions and take notes during our initial meet and greet. Would highly recommend!!
Brooke did an amazing job taking care of my dog and house sitting for me! This is the first time I have used Rover. My dog is an 11 year old "only dog" and can be a finicky around new people in the home. When I returned after 3.5 days away my flat was in great condition and Jordy was in great spirits! Not nervous, fearful, overly panting or any of the other signs that he had experienced any kind of distress. This is what I wanted. Someone I could trust with my dog and my home. Also loved the pics she sent of their walks! 10/10 would recommend Brooke to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, animal-friendly with a calm and happy energy for your pet/s.
Tara graciously helped us out at the eleventh hour when another pet sitter fell through. We are so glad we connected with her - she was WONDERFUL! We came back to a super happy and relaxed dog (he clearly really enjoyed the long walk she took him on :-) and we honestly couldn't have asked for better. We don't live in Madison, but if we did, we would 100% try to book with Tara again. Highly recommended!
Ashley was phenomenal in every aspect of caring for our pet. Before we booked, she came by for a consultation so we could make sure it was a good fit for everyone, which immediately put us at ease. From the very beginning, she was caring, compassionate, and accepting. We were away for 11 days, and Ashley went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and photos. It was so reassuring to see our pets happy and well cared for while we were gone. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine love for animals made the entire experience stress-free. We highly recommend Ashley and would gladly trust her with our pet again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Maple Bluff
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Maple Bluff on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 827 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Maple Bluff. 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 Maple Bluff 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 Maple Bluff 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 Maple Bluff 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.
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.
