About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. Iâm currently in college, Iâve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, Iâm just trying to find better things for myself. Reach out anytime âşď¸ I have open availability so pretty much let me know what youâre looking for, if you want me to just stay at yours or even if you just want me to pop in and out from time to time! I have a fenced yard so Iâm always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot

About: I LOVE dogs and cats! Growing up, my family always had big dogs and fluffy cats around the house; so throughout my life I have gained experience caring for puppies and kittens all the way up to seniors. I adore dogs of all sizes, but big dogs will always have a special place in my heart. We owned a Rottie/Lab mix, a Great Dane, an English Mastiff, Boxer, and various Doodle breeds. We also had 3 Ragdoll cats. I currently have 3 Domestic Short and Long haired cats of my own with my fiancĂŠ and I love them dearly; but I really miss having a dog around the house. Helping people care for pets on here seemed like the perfect way to help me hang with pups! I frequently assist my friends and family with pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for their animals while they are away. Outside of animals, I work for The Department of State as a Legal Assistant and sit for 8 hours a day at a desk. Taking a dog on a nice walk or having a play session with pets sounds like a very pleasant way for me spend my time after sitting in an office all day. I also love to read, cook/bake, do yoga, play video games, and play softball on my womenâs community team! Iâm currently working a full time office job from 7:30am to 4:00pm, so I can be available on weekdays any time after 4:30pm or early in the morning . I can be available anytime on weekends with enough notice to plan. As much as I would love to help people board their pets, I canât given the size of my apartment. My home is just for me and my cats :)
About: I am a passionate pet sitter and walker with a love for all animals. As a pet owner myself I know how important it is to find someone who is trustworthy. Whether itâs a walk, sitting, or just making sure your pet feels safe and happy I treat every pet like they were my own. Iâm experienced with many different breeds, temperament and energy levels. I offer flexible scheduling, short or long walks, runs, or fun visits to the local doggy park/ dog friendly places closeby! My dog & I are very active everyday and would love to bring your pet along ! I canât wait to meet your pet(s) and provide them with the care they deserve! I am available MON-FRI from 6:30 -8 AM OR 6-10:30 PM for walks or drop ins. On the weekends Iâm available all day. Very flexible just lmk! Your pets safety is my top priority. To ensure safety I would provide 24/7 supervision, situation awareness, leash control, safe routes, checkins and be reachable at all times.

About: Some people call me the dog whisperer, but I just speak a dogs language. I love dogs, even more than most humans. Iâm not afraid to administer medications or take pups to the vet or groomer. Iâm a stay at home mom, so Iâm pretty much available all day long. I own two large dogs and one small dog. And they all live in harmony with my children. Both my sons love animals almost as much as I do! If we had the land, Iâd open a rescue and adoption center. Dogs of all sizes enjoy stopping here on their walks because they know I always have treats waiting. We know most of our furry neighbors better than the humans! We must love dogs or are crazy! Iâm currently at home, but we do have children, and live an active and busy lifestyle do to their sports. I try to be as flexible as possible. I have a huge fenced in yard and my dogs love having friends over! We do require crates for sleeping or anytime we are not home, so if your dog is not crate trained, this probably isnât the home for you.
âThis is our third time booking Michael to care for our two cats while we were gone for 8 days. As always, Michael took excellent care of our babies, making sure to send us lots of pictures and updates each day! We are so glad we found Michael as we know our kitties are in good hands while we are away!â


About: Dogs are my absolute passion. I grew up in New York and later moved to Puerto Rico, where I actually ran my own neighborhood animal rescue from ages 8 to 11. Since moving to North Carolina and South Carolina, I have continued working with non-profits and animal rescues. I have hands-on experience with dogs of every size, from tiny puppies to gentle giants, and I want to make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to put your pet first. I am home throughout the day to provide frequent potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention. Your dog will never be left alone for long periods. I am always available for structured playtime, and I customize my daily routine to match whatever schedule your pup is used to at home. We live in a clean, smoke-free apartment with my sweet, small Shih Tzu who loves making new friends! Because my young brother lives with us, safety is our top priority. My mom and I work as a team to closely supervise all pet interactions at all times. Your pet is welcome on our furniture and bed, and we take regular leashed walks around the neighborhood for plenty of exercise.
âSteffany and Juan were very responsive and did a did a great job ! Kelsey warmed up to them right away and I enjoyed seeing the pictures during the drop in visit .â

âSo grateful for Victoria's help in dropping in on my kitty while I was out of town! Not only was she so graciously able to take the booking on kind of late notice, but she's also clearly SO good with cats, as my notoriously shy boy was walking right up to meet her within minutes :) Great photos and thoughtful communications while I was away, and such a sweet note left for when I got back. I'd happily book Victoria again!â


âYou were amazing and took good care of axle. So sorry he got so stressed out on you, heâs a neurotic dog who hasnât spent any time away from me so the fact that ge held out for so long is impressive to me. Thank you, and again, Iâm sorry for his behaviorâ

âAwesome as always and Sebastian likes Marlaina! Rover: I am completely fine with Marlaina not staying the full 30 minutes, as she gives Sebastian his SubQ fluids, and it does not take 30 minutes to administer. Thank you!â
About: iâve grown up with one dog and two cats throughout my childhood. Thereâs nothing where I love than taking care of animals and engaging with them. I am currently working part-time. Therefore, I have a lot of time to take care of your cute pets!! You tell me when and where and iâll be there! I am more than happy to give your fur baby the love that I give my own! The best getaway is knowing your pets are being well taken care of at home, and I can do that!!
About: I have years of experience with all kinds of pets, both my own and of my friends and family. This includes dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, pigs, cows, etc. I want to give the best possible care to your companions! I am currently in college which only keeps me away for about 3-4 hours at most a few days of the week. I work a part time job that allows me more flexibility in scheduling as well. I have a long lead for dogs in the yard that is tethered as well as a handheld 30+ foot leash for myself. I have a large and small crate that is accessible.
About: I've been a pet owner almost my entire life. I've cared for hamsters, cats, and dogs primarily. I have a certificate from Animal Behavior College in basic dog training and care, along with experience working with shelter dogs. I look forward to caring for your pet. I would love to be able to care for pets full time. I am currently available for scheduled dog walks and/or dog/cat drop-ins most times during the week and on weekends. I promise to treat your pet with the utmost care and respect with safety as a top priority. Feel free to speak with me about any of your concerns.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Middletown
Beth is wonderful!! This is our second time having her over and she takes great care of our animals. Our female dog is very shy with strangers and Beth did amazing helping her warm up, and our cat who normally hides from new people completely wanted pets and attention from Beth. She went above what was asked and made sure all our animals were happy and comfortable while we were away. We appreciate her so much!!

Emma was great - she watched our golden retriever while we traveled across the country for four days! She has great communication, Mylo was well taken care of and the house was exactly as we left it. She even went above and beyond and brushed him for us! We will definitely use Emma again in the future - she is trustworthy and reliable - your pets will be in great hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Middletown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs 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 1,774 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Middletown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your petâs routine and the sitterâs availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your petâs usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Middletown 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!
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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.
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.
While Rover doesnât offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Middletown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days youâd like them to care for your pet.

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.
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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
