“Cheyenne was great! This was our first time using Rover because we are always nervous with our husky being a flight risk. Happy to report that he was still there when we got home and all of our other animals were well taken care of! She was also very responsive to any messages I sent! Will book her again!! :)”
“Nathan took amazing care of my dog and two cats! He sent picture updates everyday and kept my house so clean :) my pets were in the best hands and I can’t recommend him enough! Book w Nathan 🙏🏼”
“Grace house sit for us for almost 3 weeks and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to have her take care of our cat and our home! Our cat does best with someone around, and she bonded with Grace quickly! The house was left clean, and we could tell our cat was well taken care of while we were away! We hope to have Grace take care of her again soon!”
“Morgan went above and beyond this time. One of our dogs had a health issue and had several accidents in the house. She was great about communicating with us and cleaning up after our dog. We really appreciate the work she did.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful, she understood what I told her about my dog and how things are on her time! I was a bit nervous about leaving her with someone she had only met once. BUT Elizabeth did what I explained to her and all went so much better then I could imagine. She will be her sitter from her on out! She is a wonderful person!”
“Olivia was wonderful! She provided plenty of pictures and updates of Luckie while we were gone. Luckie did so well with her and she left the house clean and ready for us to come home too which was an added bonus. We would definitely book Olivia again.”
“Another great stay with our boys! She takes great attentive care of our animals and I love all the updates! Emily even cleaned our dog toys that were outside and a few dishes I had left in the sink! She’s the best!”
“With Julia, you never have to worry about your babies for a second while you’re away. Julia stayed in our home over two nights. She arrived on time and provided just the right amount of check-ins while we were away. We would use Julia again and highly recommend her to anyone else.”
“Alexia was amazing! She stayed this weekend with the animals, and did a meet and greet before hand to meet us and the animals. We received many pictures throughout the weekend of our fur babies, everyone seemed very happy, and she left the house just as clean as it was when she got there.”
“Lashyia was a fantastic and reliable pet sitter who went above and beyond in watching my 3-month old puppy. She worked on training with her and left everything clean and tidy. I absolutely recommend her and plan to use her services again when I’m next out of town.”
“Jamie was phenomenal! Took such good care of our two very spoiled dogs and was incredibly reassuring and supportive of my anxiousness using a Rover sitter for the first time. We will definitely use Jamie again!”
“Camdyn watched our two dogs for four nights in our home and did an AMAZING job. She provided meds for one dog daily and took both dogs on daily hikes. She sent daily updates to me (she asked how often to message me before we left) and the house was super clean when we got home and you couldn’t even tell she was there the whole time. My dogs were super happy when we got home and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience (especially for the first time ever leaving our dogs). Thanks so much, Camdyn!”
“Jessa did an amazing job with our three high energy dogs of varying ages. We have a very anxious rescue that does not do well with other people but Jessa won her over! She kept them all busy and they all seemed exhausted at the end of the day. Jessa was a trooper and resourceful when she became sick. I had no concerns that they were all being taken care of and getting their multiple walks a day. She did a great job communicating and I would recommend her to anyone needing someone to watch their pets.”
“Layla watched our very anxious dog for a week. He has serious separation anxiety and she was WONDERFUL! Her patience with him was outstanding, she made him comfortable and gave him so much love. I can not recommend her enough. Thank you Layla!”
“Chris has watched Sadie 2 times now, he has taken excellent care of our home and our very anxious old lady. He’s very enjoyable person to chat with as well and made us feel very comfortable entrusting him. 10/10 would recommend and will continue to use him exclusively if his schedule permits it.”
About: Hello! My name is Jazlyn and I am an avid dog lover. I grew up around dogs and have always cared for them deeply. I graduated from MSU in 2022 ( go green!) and I am set to attend SIU PA program May 2024. In the past I have helped my family train dogs and keep them healthy. I am currently a MSU PA student in my last semester . Since I am finishing up the program I have more free time on weekends and after my clinical rotations . I love to walk outside in the summer and always take my family dogs on long walks back home. As a dog owner myself, I do my best to treat all furry friends the same, with lots of love and kindness! I know how important your dog is to you, and want to live up to all expectations.

FAQs for House Sitting - Meridian Charter Township
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Meridian Charter Township on Rover is $55.5 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 .

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 Meridian Charter Township 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 Meridian Charter Township 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 Meridian Charter Township 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 Meridian Charter Township. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
