“We hired Cynthia to house sit for our dog, cat, and chickens for over a week. She did a great job! She spent a ton of time at the house, sent consistent updates, and took great care of our babies. We had our outgoing flight delayed by over a day, and Cynthia was flexible and understanding.”
“Paul did an awesome job taking care of our elderly dog. It was difficult to leave her with a new dog sitter (our usual sitter got a new job) but after meeting Paul and seeing that Rheyah was immediately comfortable with him, we felt confident that he would take good care of her. Paul made sure that Rheyah took her medicine multiple times per day, fed her a special diet and even gave her a partial bath every other night to treat her chronic skin condition. He also took her for 2 walks per day when the weather permitted. Paul’s frequent photos and descriptions of what he and Rheyah were doing helped to calm my anxiety about leaving her with someone new. Not only did Paul take care of Rheyah, but he also fed my fish and managed to keep my not-so-healthy plants alive! We are very grateful that Paul’s profile came up on Rover and that he agreed to take care of Rheyah so that we could attend our granddaughter’s 1st birthday. We highly recommend Paul to anyone who needs a conscientious caring pet sitter!”
“I simply do not know what we would have done without Mary. She has faithfully and with care taken care of our Kikki cat while we were away for days at a time getting medical care for my husband. I do know she will do her best for you, and she will send pictures so you can rest easy that all will is well at home.Kikki was relaxed and calm each time we returned.”
“We had a wonderful first experience with Amanda! She watched our dog, Loki, overnight and took excellent care of him. She arrived on time, kept everything clean, communicated with us throughout the stay, and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we got home, he was happy, relaxed, and it was clear he had been well cared for. We could tell he received lots of attention and affection while we were away. We would absolutely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter!”
“Katelyn was friendly and easy to communicate with. She sent us updates and pics of our pups every other day while we were on vacation (she also seemed respectful of wanting to let us truly enjoy our time away). The house was left very clean when we returned and our boys were happy and loved!”
“Jeanee is amazing! She took the best care of our pets, provided frequent updates, and was honestly a joy to communicate with! She will most definitely be my first choice for future pet sitting needs.”
“Tegra was amazing with our quirky doggo. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Tegra provided updates and loved on our pup while we were away for almost two weeks. Upon returning home, we could tell puppers was anxiety free and our home was in excellent order. 1000% would use Tegra again.”
“Emma was AMAZING! 3 Great Danes and she handled their clumsy-ness and lap dog tenancies without a hitch. My stupid dogs ran off to the neighbors house and had an incident with the neighbor dog. She handled the situation perfectly and kept my dogs, the neighbor and their dog, and myself feeling safe about the incident the rest of booking. When I got home and apologized again to my neighbor, they said that Emma did great the whole time and were impressed with the way she handled things. 10/10 would recommend Emma!!”
“Fatima was amazing to work with. I booked her on short notice before the holiday when my original plans fell through. She offered and made it a priority to come do a meet & greet on days notice. I’m always a little nervous when using a new sitter especially when they stay at mine, but my mind was at ease immediately when I met her. I could tell she has a big heart and really cares for animals. She followed all instructions and she went above and beyond spending time with Diesel doing his favorite activities (walks, playing fetch, swimming, etc.). She was incredibly communicative and sent a lot of pictures and videos which was much appreciated. As a former Rover sitter and a frequent user of Rover’s services, I can confidently say that Fatima is one of the best sitters I’ve come across. I will definitely be using her in the future and have already recommended her to others looking for sitters. Thank you Fatima!!!”
“Alex is great with animals, respectful, kind, caring and compassionate. She is great with communication and made me feel like my pets were being well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Rebecca was phenomenal with my little critters! Excellent communication throughout the week and she was able to adjust last minute to needing to give my dog extra TLC and medication. I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
About: I have taken care of dogs between the ages of 1-14 [human years] for many family members and neighbors since I was a teen. I have had two labradors and two golden retrievers throughout my lifetime, and have taken care of breeds ranging from Corgi to Vizsla to German Shepherd. I am very family-oriented, and will take care of your pups like they are my own! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to give lots of love and attention to your canine family members. I am a very active individual, and love to incorporate dogs into my routine to satisfy their energetic hearts and souls! I would love to hear about any particular needs, struggles, or enjoyed habits that your dogs may have. I want them to enjoy our time together as much as I will!!
“Faith was excellent with our big guys Yogi Bear and Domino. We were able to enjoy our son’s wedding knowing they were in good hands while we were away. Would definitely recommend Faith”
“Heather was so sweet and understood our animals are our family. She sent pictures throughout her stay which really put my mind at ease. We will book Heather again for the future!!”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Layla while we were away. She kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, and we could tell Layla was happy and well-loved the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, content pup — we couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Elizabeth and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Megan was great! Very friendly, diligent, and provided frequent updates & photos while taking care of our pitbull Cash, we’ll definitely utilize her again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Stephen and Wipawee watched our dog for the second time. They took excellent care of him. They kept us informed with pictures and updates throughout our trip. They were very respectful of our home and even brought in our mail and took our trash out to the curb. 100% recommend them and will definitely ask them to dog sit again in the future!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and connection I bring to every animal I work with. I have experience with all types of animals, and I treat each one like they’re my own patient, gentle, and fully attentive to their needs. I don’t believe in one size fits all care. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a great communicator, always keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is truly in good hands. With a calm energy, a clean environment, and genuine passion for animals, I make every pet’s stay a positive and stress free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I build my day around the animals I’m watching. I start and end each day with feeding, potty breaks, and quality time, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, play, and exercise throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, check ins, or simply giving them comfort and company, I plan my schedule to stay consistent and reliable. Pets aren’t an “extra” for me they’re a meaningful part of my day, and I make sure their needs are met with patience, love, and structure. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything exactly how their pet is used to. I stick closely to the pet’s daily schedule, maintain their feeding and exercise routine, and make sure they get quality time, attention, and reassurance. No matter where the care takes place, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress free, just like they’re with family.
“Cara was a pleasure to work with, and Shui had a wonderful experience with her care. She went above and beyond the details of the care we asked for and was very professional and prompt with updates. Highly recommend!”

Whitney was very caring and attentive with both Ollie and us-we were obviously concerned that he get the attention an elderly dog needs. She sent pictures and regular updates throughout our absence, which definitely eases a pet parent’s concerns! I love that she confirmed the stay at multiple points and kept us looped in. I highly recommend her!
I simply do not know what we would have done without Mary. She has faithfully and with care taken care of our Kikki cat while we were away for days at a time getting medical care for my husband. I do know she will do her best for you, and she will send pictures so you can rest easy that all will is well at home.Kikki was relaxed and calm each time we returned.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mequon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mequon on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,235 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mequon. 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 Mequon 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 Mequon 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 Mequon 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.

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.
