“Alyssa is great! She stepped in to care for Jeffrey while he was injured and crate bound. He loves her, and so does the cat, Syd Vicious, and you can tell by the name she doesn't love anybody!”
“Raquel did everything asked of her and then some. She was super easy to work with, made sure Winnie had plenty of time to go potty/ eat and took sooo many great photos of her during her visit! Thanks, Raquel!”
“Irene did an excellent job taking care of all 7 of my cats. We were gone for a week she cleaned their litters, feed and took care of any messes they made. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Kiersten was great with both my dogs! She communicates very well, sent pictures, and followed all of my directions for my dogs. One of my dogs can be reactive when he is not familiar with someone and Kiersten was willing to meet him multiple times before the actual date!! I am so thankful I found her to take care of my dogs. I cannot recommend her enough!! Thank you again and I look forward to working with you again!”

“Absolutely awesome experience! I can’t say enough good things about how well Hanna took care of my fur-babies. Highly recommend her and I will definitely have her over again in the future!”
“Mya was great and super attentive of my pup. She even took her along for a ride in her car which she loved. I appreciate Mya’s messages and communication with me, filling me in on everything. I will definitely hire her again, she loves animals and was super patient with my pup.”
“Bethanie was super responsive, professional and left no room for worry in the caretaking of our five four-legged kids while we attended our daughter's wedding in Michigan! She was also kind enough to help tech-challenged me with the Rover app as well as sending photos during our time away?. Very impressed and grateful!”
About: For my 10th birthday I got a golden retriever. She was my best friend and sparked such a love for animals in me. I’ve taken care of every farm animal you could think of, every kind of dog ranging in every size, I love all cats and have cared for many as well! I’m doing schooling online and I’m extremely flexible on a day to day basis and on weekends as well. I wake up early and go to sleep early typically so I can adjust to whatever feeding schedule any animal may be on. I have a very large property with woods and lots of room to run around. I live on a road I take daily walks on. I have a large house and a barn outside as well. I’m flexible depending on what your fur baby is most comfortable with. I can offer a lot of exercise, cuddles, they can sleep in a crate if that makes them comfortable or they can sleep out of the crate.
“I really appreciate Devin’s availability and willingness to respond to me when I blew up her phone ;) I literally could not find a pet sitter in this area that would respond to me. I have a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs, and so it was nice to have someone who responded so quickly. (On a semi-unrelated note to pet sitting, she also took really cute pictures of my dogs which was helpful to my daughter while we were gone).”
About: Hi! I'm Cassandra, a Purdue University graduate with a bachelor's degree in Animal Science. I genuinely love caring for dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pup needs a quick walk, extra exercise after work, or lots of affection while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am available on weekday evenings after work and flexible on weekends. I'm happy to work around your daily schedule whenever possible. I am open to discussing your needs. I have two dogs at home, and I make sure they are fed well, bathed, and get proper exercise. 😊 While I don't offer grooming services, I'm happy to brush your dog if requested. I also can do nail trims depending on the temperament of your fur baby.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life; at one point, my family owned 6 dogs at one time. Also, I worked at a dog kennel for a few months. I was responsible for monitoring, cleaning up after, playing with, and feeding up to 50 dogs at once. I love dogs, and I am endlessly fascinated by dog psychology and the reasons why they do what they do. I have attended many dog obedience classes and have owned many troublesome dogs in the past. I am very patient, and I am ready for any challenge your dog(s) may bring. Since it is summer, I can watch dogs daily, in the morning and/or afternoon for everyday of the week. I am currently not busy, and I am reliable. I offer a comforting and calm presence for your dog if needed, also I love playing with dogs, and will do whatever seems to be best for the specific dog.
“Morgan was great as always! She took great care of our fur babies. She even cleaned out the food dishes when they were empty. Love having her come take care of our babies.”
About: I've taken care of family and friends pets, participated in 4-H, raised my own pets, and am also certified in pet CPR! I currently work 6-2 M-F, so I can provide pet care around those times!

About: I’ve loved walking and caring for dogs and cats since I was 13 years old. I treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, where they feel comfortable and safe. I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away, and I always keep their safety and well-being my top priority.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 456 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Middlebury. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Middlebury stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
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.
