Elizabeth was fantastic! She sent pics and updates throughout the day while we were out! Our boy, Mav, was wiped out when we got home! He is about 3 1/2 yr old spoiled rotten Sheepadoodle! We would HIGHLY recommend her for your fur baby! She is kind and very patient - Mav took to her immediately!

Carly is an amazing dog sitter! She took the absolute best care of our dog, Diesel, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about him and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. Diesel absolutely loved her, and we feel so lucky to have found someone we trust so much with him. She also was great with communication and provided updates regularly, which was so appreciated. We cannot recommend Carly enough and would not hesitate to book her again!

Danielle is a Godsend. She is so sweet with my girl dakota. Has always gone over and beyond to help me out in last minute situations and lives Dakota like her own. She even was helpful when my dog went into heat while I was away on my trip and washed her party panties ( diaper) for me. Can’t recommend her enough!

Shannon was fantastic! I’m so glad we got a chance to work with her. Her communication was excellent, she arrived on time (slightly early actually) had a wonderful attitude and gave Jax lots of love and exercise while we were gone. He was pooped when we got home! I would highly recommend working with Shannon if you need a pet sitter.

Stacey took wonderful care of our senior Boxer, Jingles, while we were away on an international trip. From the moment we met her, we knew Jingles would be in caring and capable hands. Jingles is an older dog with some special needs, including frequent potty breaks and a few age-related quirks, and Stacey handled everything with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. She kept us updated, gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling, and treated Jingles like she was her own. The biggest compliment I can give is that when we got home, Jingles spent the evening and the next morning walking around the house looking for Stacey. It's obvious they formed a special bond during the week, and that says everything about the love and attention Stacey gave her. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Stacey provided and would not hesitate to book her again. If you're looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, I highly recommend Stacey.

Arianna had amazing communication both before and during her stay with Maverick. She left our house better than she found it and our dog had a blast. We saw many pictures of him playing, eating, relaxing, etc. And came home to the cutest report card. Will definitely use Arianna again and would recommend her a million times if I could!

Angie cared for our puppy Brody over the holiday weekend with overnight stays. She offered to meet at our house prior to the requested stay, which was much appreciated. Upon first meeting her, you could tell she is passionate about caring for animals. She made us feel comfortable leaving our dog (and cat) for the long weekend. She even put on dog TV when she left, which is a very sweet touch. House was clean when we returned. Would highly recommend!!

Zoë was amazing with my two Huskies! They love to escape so I was a bit worried. One of them escaped and she got him back home. I was on a cruise with no WiFi and I was able to get updates from her when we ported. She was sitting in house and our place was neat and well taken care of. More importantly, my pooches loved Zoë so book her!

Christina was amazing with our senior dogs. One has epilepsy and the other one other health issues, so they are not that simple to take care of. She did a great job taking care of them. They were very happy with her and not stressed out. She kept me informed the entire time, was responsive, sent photos, and was able to give them their meds and vitamins. She stayed over and was respectful of our home. We recommend her and will be hiring her in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Medulla

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Medulla on Rover is $52.17 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 2,387 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Medulla. 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 Medulla 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 Medulla 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 Medulla 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 Medulla. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
