“Kristen was responsive, kind, and really out our mind at ease caring for our two dogs. We needed someone to stay with them for a long day out and about. They were well cared for and we totally trusted Kristen to handle anything that came up.”

“Jordyn was amazing, she took very good care of our dog Rocky! It was the first time that we booked a dog sitter through Rover and we were impressed by the excellent care and communication! Jordyn always kept us updated on how Rocky was doing and also sent us pictures that we wouldn't miss him so much. We would love to have Jordyn again as dog sitter for Rocky some day. Jordyn, thank you so much for all your help!”

“Stephanie and Scott cared for my pups and sent regular updates and photos. They are amazing and did a wonderful job! I would highly recommend Stephanie and Scott to care for your pets!”

“Vesta took great care of our and cats at our home. She sent photos of all of them and kept us updated when she arrived and left. It was awesome that she came to meet them before the booking so we knew they’d be comfortable with her. Pepperoni thanks you for the couch snuggles, Vesta!”

“This is the second time Michelle has stayed with our two pups and we came home to two happy, well-cared for pets and a spotless home. It is very nice to have a dependable sitter and sets my mind at ease while away from home!”

“Jordan stayed with our 2 dogs while we were on vacation for a few days. She was so kind and updated me many times with how they were doing and pictures for us to see. She even tidied up and did laundry for us which blew me away! I felt great leaving our dogs with her and would request her again! 🙂”

“Patty did a great job with our 5-month-old GSP. It was the first time we left him since bringing him home, and he was well loved while we were gone for five days. The first time they met (prior to her stay at our house), he took to her very easily and they became fast friends. And, we really appreciated the daily photos while we were gone!”

“Ryan was great! Our senior dog recently lost her litter mate sister and gets very anxious when left alone. Ryan watched her for us 3 times over a weekend at our rental and our dog took to her right away. Ryan was very accommodating, punctual, helpful. When we’re back in the area she’s our first choice. Highly recommended!”

“Madison was phenomenal with Rigel and Inara. She was attentive and went above and beyond checking in on them and keeping them entertained. I greatly appreciated her watching them.”

“Kim stayed with my one-year-old Golden, Fin for four nights. She was great! She was professional and knowledgeable. She offered to meet Fin a head of our trip as well as come to the house to be familiar with everyone. She provided wonderful care and left my home cleaner than she found it. I would highly recommend and will contact her again for our future dog sitting needs!”

“Elliot is a fabulous pet sitter!! He came over before hand to meet everyone. He asked great questions about their habits, sleeping preferences, dog walk length, and favorite activities. He also made sure to ask questions about any special health needs or instructions. It was clear that he knows animals and cares about each one of their unique needs. Elliot sent pictures and updates daily, and was quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend him!”


“Heather was amazing! She came and met the 2 dogs and cat beforehand. Was great with communication and sent us pictures and videos of our pups! First time using the app. Heather is a Definite recommend”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for years and currently have dogs of my own, so I know just how much they become part of the family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, energy levels, and personalities from energetic pups who are always ready for their next adventure to senior dogs who need a little more patience and a slower pace. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime, basic medications, and giving your dog plenty of attention and affection. I also understand that some dogs can be nervous or anxious when their people are away, so I’m happy to take the time to let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’ll always do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine and any instructions you leave. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates along the way, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pup is happy, safe, and being well cared for while you’re away! 🐶🐾 I work full time in the Cadillac area Monday through Friday, so weekday pet care is planned around my work schedule. I’m generally available before and after work during the week, with much more flexibility in the evenings and on weekends. For house sitting bookings, I stay overnight in your home with your pets so they can remain comfortable in their own environment and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. On workdays, I’ll be away during my normal working hours but will be there before and after work and overnight. Depending on your location and my workday, I may also be able to stop in during the day. I’m always upfront about my schedule before accepting a booking and only take stays that are a good fit for both my availability and your pet’s needs. I’m happy to go over your pet’s normal routine ahead of time so we can make sure the schedule works well for everyone. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and leave your pets in their care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you leave as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and household rules. I’m mindful about keeping doors, gates, leashes, and other areas secure and will never put your pet in an unfamiliar or potentially unsafe situation without your permission. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. While you’re away, I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. If I ever have a question or notice something out of the ordinary, I’ll always communicate with you rather than assume. 🐾
“Marg was super great with our elderly dog, Maggie! She sent regular updates and appreciated her special needs! We highly recommend Marg for drop in visits and/or house sitting.”

“my Manny loves Jackie. she did a wonderful job staying in my apartment and taking care of my baby for me for a week. I would recommend her to anyone. She will keep you updated as necessary and she will give your pet all the love you. Wish you could while you were gone.”

“Aubrey took care of our sweet Morty for a few days. Morty has some health challenges, and Aubrey was confident administering all of his meds. She was communicative, and we really appreciate the care she provided to Morty.”


“Regan did an amazing job with our three dogs. She was super friendly and professional angle kept us in the loop while we were away. We will DEFINITELY be hiring Regan again!”

“We always feel comfortable leaving our pups and home in Amber’s hand. Her communication style and frequency is spot on, everything is always perfect when we get home, and by the looks of the pics our pups are quite enamored with her too!”

About: I grew up in a small town in Northern Michigan where animals weren't just pets, they were part of everyday life. Surrounded by dogs, cats, and farm animals from a young age, I developed a natural comfort and respect for animals that only comes from experience. Growing up with American Bulldogs taught me early that strong, high energy dogs require patience and confidence, but mostly just a whole lot of love. Starting in middle school, family and friends began trusting me with their pets, and through that I've learned there's no adventure or day that isn't better with a furry friend by your side. My most hands on experience includes caring for three dogs at once with very different needs: a yellow Lab puppy with endless energy, a senior black Lab requiring mobility assistance, and a spirited Shih Tzu who was unaware of her age and physical limitations. Managing all three taught me how to balance high energy, gentle handling, and individual attention all under one roof. As an online student also working toward my Pilates certification this summer, my schedule is accommodative in all the right ways. I live on the Boulder Hill and are largely home during the day, which means I can assist your pets in a timely manner. I share a home with two other animal loving roommates and a rescue cat who mostly keeps to herself. None of my animals currently live with me, which means your animal has my full attention! My backyard is fully fenced though I enjoy accompanying your pet outside regardless to get fresh air myself. I've accommodated pets of all leisure and am happy to follow the rules you have in place. I drive a reliable truck and have the time, flexibility, and energy to give your pet the attention they actually deserve. When visiting a client's home, all of that still applies! I take your space, your routines, and your trust seriously, and having worked professionally as a house cleaner, leaving things tidy and respected is just how I operate.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mayfield on Rover is $66.6 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 144 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mayfield. 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 Mayfield 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 Mayfield 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 Mayfield 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 with handling special pet needs in Mayfield. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
