“I’m so grateful for Brittney’s care of my two dogs and two cats during the Christmas week.From the start, she was responsible, reliable and kind. She visited our house twice a day, even during Christmas. Gave my cat medication properly and gently.She left my home clean and tidy. Most importantly, my furry babies felt safe and happy with her. They bonded with Brittney so quickly, and could see they were in wonderful hands. Her calm presence and reliability gave us peace of mind while we were away of the country and it’s so good to have now someone we can trust when a new trip comes. Our schedule changed several times and I’m so grateful for her flexibility and patience! I will definitely hire Brittney again! Thank you Brittney for everything - you made a world of difference for us!”

“We had a wonderful experience with them! We really enjoyed meeting them beforehand and felt very comfortable having them care for our dogs. There were a couple of small communication details to work through at the beginning, but they were very resourceful and everything came together smoothly. They took our dogs on walks, kept them company, and gave them lots of attention. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and would absolutely have them watch our dogs again!”

“We have two loud and energetic pups and Marti took great care of them while we were away. She provided excellent communication and updates. We also appreciate how responsive she was throughout the vetting and booking process. We will definitely use her in the future and recommend her to anyone.”
“Matt was amazing! Extremely tentative and very professional. He watched out 2 dogs and cat over an entire weekend. He sent regular pics and updates the whole time. Provided walks for our Golden and was extremely accommodating with our senior dog, as well, who has the typical senior dog needs and “white glove” care. We will definitely be booking Matt in the future. I would highly recommend.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mayfield
Molly was able to watch our dogs very last minute. She was a good communicator throughout the stay and was helpful about bringing in our packages. She also took the sheets off the guest bed before leaving, which we appreciated! Overall, a great experience!
Rebecca stayed with my sweet senior Eevie for 4 days and I came home to a relaxed, and clearly well cared for dog. Eevie had a UTI when I left town so Rebecca gave her antibiotics, probiotics and two other daily medications. Rebecca sent photos during her visit and responded right away when I checked in by text. In addition, I came home to an extremely clean house. Rebecca is professional, accommodating, down to earth and very kind. She's a real gem!
Falyn did a great job watching our three high energy dogs and cat for the weekend. Our animals were so happy with her care and we can tell they loved having her! She was responsive and easy to work with. Our house was also just as tidy when we came home! Will hire her again and again!!!!
Brittney is truly amazing. From making sure the animals were comfortable with a meet-and-greet, to making sure that all dietary and special needs were considered. Even with the typical NEOH snowstorm, Brittney made sure my babies received the best care. I will be rebooking again!

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 , 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.
