“Jacqueline was great! She provided updates and pictures on a daily basis of my dog. I could tell he was having a fantastic time with her and was being loved on. He was ridiculously excited to see her again when she stopped by the next day to pick up something she forget.”
“I had Abigail come to my house to sit my 3 dogs while i was on vacation. She did great with my babies and took time to make them feel more comfortable with her. She even met with me beforehand to meet the dogs which put me more at ease with using her. Abigal is trustworthy and she was respectful of my belongings. She also brought in my packages and took up my garbage cans which was a huge help. I'll definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Leah was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! 🐾 She took great care of them while I was at work, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly really cares about my fur babies. My dogs were happy and well taken care of when I got home. I would definitely recommend Leah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! ❤️ Thank you Leah!☺️”
“Andrea watched our lab and two cats while we were gone for a couple of nights. They were in amazing hands! Knowing our boys were being so well cared for meant we could actually relax on our trip. She’s an amazing communicator and sends the best pictures. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter. Thank you so much, Andrea!”
“Amaryl was extremely kind and made us feel very at ease while we were away from our cats. Super responsive, respectful, and considerate. Will be booking again with Amaryl!”
“We couldn't be more thrilled with the care Jana provided as our pet and house sitter! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our home and beloved pets were in such capable hands. Jana went above and beyond to ensure our animals were not only well-fed and cared for but also showered with love and attention. We returned to happy, healthy pets who clearly enjoyed their time with her. Not only did Jana excel in pet care, but she also kept our home spotless. Walking through the door after our trip, we were greeted by an immaculately clean house, making our return even more pleasant. Her attention to detail, responsibility, and kindness truly made her stand out. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and diligent to look after your pets and home, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend Jana and will absolutely be reaching out again for future stays. Five-star service all around!”
“SO greatful for Stella! She was incredibly communicative and reliable—our dog was so happy with her while we were away. A literal dream come true for my anxious-brain; Stella was the best pet sitter I’ve ever employed. We will be using her exclusively moving forward and highly recommend her to anyone searching for someone who truly cares about your animal and will allow you invaluable peace of mind while you’re away.”
About: I have 9 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and genuine love for animals. I’m experienced with senior pet care, including administering medication and helping with mobility, and I’m also skilled at working with puppies helping to burn off energy with play. I treat every pet like family and focus on keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm an online college student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and lots of free time throughout the day. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I love being able to take breaks from studying to spend time with animals, whether it’s for walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I take pet safety and comfort seriously, whether in my home or a client’s. At my home, I have a secure fenced in yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space indoors for pets to relax. I also have extra crates and cages available if needed for comfort, training, or quiet time. I have two friendly, well behaved dogs who love the company of other pets, but I always introduce new pets carefully to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where they can feel at home.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, whether they’re my own, pets I’ve cared for at shelters, or pets I’ve sat for through friends and family. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of available time to provide your pets with loving, attentive, and personalized care! I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate special instructions and make sure every pet feels cared for, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Gwendolyn was wonderful with Moki! She spoiled her rotten, sent pictures several times a day and was very responsive when contacted. I can 100% recommend her and will definitely have her come again when I need a sitter for Moki!”
About: We had three dogs growing up. I’ve had three of my own as well. I am currently the go to sitter for my best friend’s dog. I’ve cared for dogs in extreme health situations/have seen just about everything. I’m great with dogs/love spending time with them. I also work remotely and am available to come and pet sit. I am open to potentially boarding, but I would have to talk to my landlords first. I work from home, with two thirty minute breaks. I do not start until 10:30 and can do morning walks or feeding. I’m off at 6:30 and can do evening walks or feeding as well. I’ve had a full range of experience caring for my dogs over the years. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding and basic grooming. I also have experience with a wide variety of medications and have no problem giving supplements or medication at your direction. Since I work remotely, as long as there is some desk space to set up and Internet service, I can stay over any day of the week if needed. I consider myself a good communicator and am happy to send updates or answer any questions you may have.

“Nichole is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She took care of our two huskies with love, excellence, and attention to detail. She went above and beyond giving them stimulation and exercise and left our home spotless. Genuinely such a lovely person. We are so grateful for your amazing work, Nichole!”

“We were somewhat anxious about leaving our dog with a sitter for the first time. We were very impressed when we met Rachelle, and our minds were put at ease by her maturity and her knowledge and experience with dogs. Our dog instantly developed a bond with Rachelle, and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry about the safety of our dog and our home. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend Rachelle as someone who is dependable and will take good care of your pet.”
“Nina is extraordinary. Her dedication to my dog and her daily photos and messages made leaving my dog in her care much easier than ever. My latest trip was the longest I had ever left my dog in someone’s care and Nina put all my worries to rest. She took excellent care of Delilah and of our home. I couldn’t have asked for more. Even when my return flight was delayed she stayed with Delilah until I finally landed. Nina will now be our regular sitter whenever I travel. She is amazing! Thank you Nina!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Miamitown is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $33 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,266 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Miamitown. 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 Miamitown 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 Miamitown 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 Miamitown 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Miamitown. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
