“Was super easy to work with and had great communication. Also stayed an extra day when we had some issues getting back into town. Definitely would recommend booking her!!”
“Abigail is the best! My dog, Dottie, is a very anxious girl and she warmed up to Abigail after only a couple minutes during our meet and greet. She sent pictures the entire time I was away and took such amazing care of Dottie. I would recommend her for any dogs and will definitely have her comeback to take care of my girl the next time I need an overnight sitter.”
“Adalyn stepped in last minute when I had an emergency work trip. Even dealt with some craziness from my extra helpful neighbors during the introduction. She took great care of my babies and was very communicative. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, because growing my family always had pets. I love animals and my family can rely on me when it comes to caring for their pets. Having pets and growing up around all sorts of animals has encouraged me to expand my knowledge and kindness to help other’s when it some to taking care of their pets. I’m comfortable around all dogs and cats. When I take care of pets I dedicate my time to care for all of them and their needs. My schedule does change a lot when I go ba k to school or during the summer time as well I at the moment I have part-time availability and can house sit and walk dogs. I will also take last minute bookings on the weekdays, and cancellations. I also travel quite a lot so i apologize in advance for my opening. When it comes to taking care of dogs and other animals, I make sure to take them out on the leash and try to get in at least two walks everyday, as well play with them so they’ll sleep well later on.
About: Hi, I’m Olivia :) I’ve had animals my entire life—including dogs, cats, and birds—and even grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I truly love all animals, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. At home I have two kitties of my own that I love dearly, Gus and Sammie. Because I love to travel myself, I know how important it is to have someone caring, dependable, and trustworthy looking after your pets. Being able to give pet parents peace of mind is exactly why I’m here. I work a hybrid job, which gives me the flexibility to work remotely on many days. Just let me know the dates you’re looking for, and I’ll be happy to check my schedule. I’m comfortable with overnight stays, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and keeping your pets on their normal routine. Growing up babysitting taught me responsibility, patience, and compassionate care for those who depend on us, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I watch. I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I also love being outdoors, so walks and playtime are always something I look forward to! I’m happy to answer any questions you may have for me!! I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or hairless 😆) family members! In the photos provided, you’ll find some of the pets I’ve had the pleasure of caring for over the years, as well as my two kitties! I have a hybrid remote job, which gives me flexibility throughout the week with advance notice. I typically work 8am to 5 pm on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’m happy to help with evening visits, overnight stays, and pet care right after work! Boarding at my home may not be the best option right now, as I would want to make sure my own cats are properly acclimated first and avoid creating unnecessary stress for your pets. I’d be more than happy to provide care in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. If you’d like to meet beforehand, I completely understand and would be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone feels comfortable.
About: I have had the pleasure of adopting two special canines. The first a lab/beagle mixed who lived his best years until 17 yo. He was on special diet so I am familiar with restrictions. My current just turned 3 and is a lab/german wired haired pointer mix who is always looking for new friends. She had TPLO surgery last year so I am also comfortable with post-op restrictions!! I work from home daily so I can care for your pet all day!! Whatever your pet needs I can accommodate!! Agreeable to following specific needs if required. Our home is non-smoking and no kiddos!! Fully fenced backyard!! Willing to transport to local dog parks if preferred for daily activity!! Instructions are preferred so we make you pet feel at home!!
“Mirte was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our home and pets. She went above and beyond in every way, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pets clearly adored her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. We came home to a spotless house, happy animals, and everything handled perfectly. Mirte is reliable, kind, professional, and truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever worked with. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets and home. Five stars all around!”
About: I managed a pet store for years, I also ran a humane society's equine center and I have horses of my own. I have experience with reactive dogs and love big dogs! I work Monday thru Wednesday and every other Thursday. I work 12 hour shifts on those days so I'm not available. I'm available anytime after that! I am currently unable to care for dogs in my own home because my dog prefers to be the only dog. But I'm happy to take dogs on walks or care for them in your own home!
About: I’m 18 years old and just graduated High school I have grown up around dogs my whole life, including 2 bulldogs, a mastiff, and a boxer. Two and a half years ago I got my own Australian Shepherd, and caring for him has given me even more hands on experience. I have pet sat before and truly loved it. I’m responsible, patient, and don’t mind cleaning up accidents or handling energetic pets. I was involved in 4-H for three years, which helped me gain even more experience working with animals. I’m currently in college for massage therapy and have a flexible schedule, with availability on any days except Mondays and Thursdays. I’m currently in college for massage therapy, but I still have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available most days and can make any day work except Mondays and Thursdays. I’m happy to do walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, overnight stays, and giving pets lots of attention and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from bulldogs to a mastiff and my own Australian Shepherd. I’m patient, responsible, and comfortable cleaning up accidents, following feeding schedules, giving lots of exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated while you’re away with texts/ pictures.
“Rebekah did an incredible job both house sitting and dog sitting our dog Arthur! We were so nervous to leave our fur baby and she made us feel so comfortable with her sweet updates! We highly recommend her services!”
“I highly recommend Samantha. She was very diligent in caring for a somewhat complicated schedule for several types of animals. When we returned the animals were happy and well cared for. She also house sat for us. She is very respectful of our property and the house was left in immaculate condition! We could not have been more pleased and it is such a relief to have someone we can trust with our animals and our home. Hire Samantha! You will not be disappointed.”
About: I had German Shepherds, Welsh Corgis, a Jindo, and a mixed-breed dog back in Korea, and all of them were well trained. When I meet a new dog, I try to become their friend by making gentle eye contact, lowering myself to their eye level, and offering my hand while patiently waiting until they feel I am safe. I have also dealt with aggressive dogs several times, and in the end, they too became my friends. Since I work from home with flexible time during the week, I have not had my own pet yet because I felt it would be unfair to leave them alone for long hours. However, on weekends I usually dedicate time to myself through photography, driving, and hiking, and I would truly enjoy having the company of your dog or cat during those times. Taking care of a pet would naturally fit into my routine as part of those weekend activities, giving me both companionship and joy while also ensuring the pet has quality time and attention. In my home, I would care for pets as if they were my own friends—providing attention, playtime, and walks, even on rainy days, to make sure they stay active and happy. In a client’s home, I would first ask about any rules or restrictions, such as areas of the house that are off-limits, preferred snacks, daily routines, and any medical concerns. I believe following the owner’s guidance is very important to ensure the pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment.

I have experience with small and little dogs, energetic and lazy, as well as cats! I am usually pretty available as my work and school schedule are both somewhat flexible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 257 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Maumee. 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 Maumee 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 Maumee 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 Maumee 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
