“Kristen was fantastic! She was so kind, wonderful with our cats, left our home very clean and tidy, and she sent wonderful pictures. I felt so comfortable with her in our home and with our cats and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Gabrielle was wonderful while my husband and I were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and incredibly patient with our cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with guests. She was also very understanding of our dog Teddy’s anxiety and took great care of him, even when he had a few anxious accidents. Our home was exactly as we left it, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would be happy to have her watch our pets again!”
“Lacey and her daughter Olivia were wonderful! I needed a sitter last minute and they came to the rescue! Their communication was excellent (including pics with the check-ins) and were flexible with the short-notice information. Would definitely recommend and hire again!”
About: I grew up around dogs whether it was at home, family members houses or friends houses. I have a lot of experience with dogs of every size. I was 10 years old when I got my first dog, Poppy, and learned everything I needed to know to care for her. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for a few years now and would love to care for yours. My dog usually accompanies me on longer stays if permitted. Pet care is very important and should always fit into any pet owner’s schedule so I have no problem fitting it into mine because they are family. Your furry family member will feel right at home in their own house so that should help keep any anxiety levels down while you are away and it will help with feeding, sleeping and bathing.
“Allea took care of my two cats for a week, staying in my house, and she did a wonderful job. They're both shy but she won them over quickly and, on my return, they seem calm and happy, very different than in the past when I've gone and returned. She communicated with pics daily and left the house perfect. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting. needs.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner from a young age. I currently have a cat. I have experience with senior dogs and outside dogs, big dogs and little dogs. Love them all! I’m free every weekday evening and can make time on the weekends. I also work from home so if I stay over with your furry friend, I am available to them at all times! I am always very mindful of my surroundings to make sure pets are always safe. I have lots of experience with pet sitting and taking care of pets in general. I also have experience with senior and special needs pups so I can help with any situation!
“Taylor came through last minute for me and I am so grateful. I had no reservations leaving my dogs with her. She is super professional. Set up a time to meet right away and I could tell that she really knows what she is doing, and she would follow through which she did. Communication was amazing and my pups seemed very happy. Would not hesitate to use her again.”
“Patricia took incredible care of our home abd our pup Zoe. Zoe has medication and behavioral needs and Patricia took it all in stride. Communication was great and she really goes the extra mile with your pet while you are away. 10/10”
“Lillie communicated well and timely. She sent pictures of our pets on the first day so we knew she'd arrived. She left the house in great shape and just as she found it. I would recommend her and hope to book her again.”
“Andrea is a wonderful sitter! She stayed with our dog over Thanksgiving weekend. she kept us up to speed with daily check ins and photos, Chaco loveed spending time with her, and we knew our home was cared for while we were away. We will definitely call on her in the future!”
“Kandice was prompt and took good notes when we first met. She asked great questions and was kind and responsible. While taking care of Freyja she was a great communicator, positive, and helped her feel cared for. I would definitely use her again.”
“Ana did a great job taking care of our two dogs, Hugo and Wiggins. We arrived home to a spotless house, happy dogs and even our house plants were watered and healthy. Highly recommended.”
“Lara was a great dog sitter. I hired her while I took a long weekend trip. She walked my dog Magnet multiple times per day and even took her to the dog park. She left my house in great shape and I would definitely use her again. Thanks Lara!”
“Cierra was fantastic and we look forward to having her back! She communicated efficiently and stayed in touch with us throughout our time away. We felt so comfortable with her care, receiving photos and videos during walks and dinner time. She left our home better than when she arrived, going above and beyond to throw her bed linens in the wash and run the vacuum. We can’t wait to have you back, thanks, Cierra!”
“Michelle was fantastic and I will absolutely be rebooking! My animals loved them and I was kept in the loop with pictures and updates throughout my leave! Very kind and detail oriented and a fantastic communicator!”
About: ABOUT ME 🦴 I’ve been on Rover for almost 3 years and I’ve loved all the animals I’ve met along the way. My main teacher has been my high-energy, high-drive Australian Sheperd/Heeler Squid! I’ve worked with him on reactivity, impulse control, leash training - you name it! We’ve made excellent progress and strides, and I’d love to share what he’s taught me with others. I only work with folks that center positive reinforcement (no prong or e-collars). I’d love to help with any leash training etc. that you’re working on, but I know the most important thing is to create an environment where your dog feels safe and well exercised while you’re away. 😊 I take my dog “Squid” out 3 times a day, often to trail run or play fetch. He’s a part of my life and travels with me everywhere that he’s allowed/safe. I am offering walking/running and drop in visits. No matter where I am, I follow the instructions of the pets owner. I’m interested in helping out people who’s dogs need some energy out like mine did!

Louis was absolutely wonderful! He took great care of my dog. He kept me updated with photos and messages ans made me feel completely at ease while I was gone. It was clear my pup was happy,comfortable and well loved. I came home to a happy pup. I would gladly book with him again and highly recommend him.
This is our first experience having a house sitter to watch our pets, and I couldn’t be more happy with Jinna. She was communicative, flexible, kind, and treated our pets like her own. We were a bit nervous having someone in our house while we were gone, but Jinna made it so easy for us and put our minds at ease. She even was able to give our cat his daily medication that he often struggles with! We will absolutely be reaching back out to her if we need a sitter in the future.
Sara did a GREAT job with our 3 dogs, two senior and a special needs pupper. She was able to win over our fearful dog and even understand our kinda complicated feeding regimen. Would definitely rebook with her and appreciate her compassion and kindness!!!❤️🐾❤️
Kristina took excellent care of my fur babies! She was meticulous about following feeding and activity routines. When I returned home, my doggies were happy and well! Kristina is a kind person who genuinely loves dogs and that comes through in the way she cares for my pups.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Medford is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $73 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.

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 Medford 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 Medford 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 Medford 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
