“Kimberly was FANTASTIC!! She was reliable, taking excellent care of our flat faced fur baby in the heat. Our doggo clearly loved drop in time with Kimberly! Would absolutely rebook!!”
“Maddie and Joseph were awesome with my bernadoodle! They took the best photos of him and sent them to me with each walk. My dog was happy and well cared for by them! We always book them for our dog’s care.”
About: I grew up taking care of dogs, cats, horses and more. I have had my own family dogs over the years, Trooper for 16 years and Rusty for 14 years. I have cared for friend's dogs, big and small, and my grand dogs for a day or even 1 month. I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. I will do my best to maintain their schedules as well as training and discipline. I will treat them as my own with lots of love and affection, knowing they may miss their parents. I work from home so fitting pet care into my schedule is not an issue. I walked my own dogs every morning in the neighborhood or to the beach. Afternoon neighborhood walks or romps in the big backyard are often on the agenda. I have a single family, single story home with a fenced yard in a great neighborhood. I will treat your pet as my own, keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. I love animals and will take great care of your fur baby.
About: I love pets and house keeping and would love to help you with yours! I take pride in offering thorough care to put you at ease when you go away. I look forward to working for you and your pets! I work a part time job that is extremely flexible and allows me to work from home, meaning I can look after your pets in the exact way you want! I can spend as little or as much time as you want with them! I want your pets to feel like they are on vacay with me! I keep to them on their same routine while also giving them a little extra care since you are away. That way they won't be too sad while you are gone.
“Hannah is a great pet sitter for our cats. She is a pro at administering insulin to our diabetic cat and moves the food to another room for the smaller one to eat in peace. She sends updates and photos after each visit which is very comforting. She is always willing to help out with mail etc where necessary. I am always very confident that our kitties are in good hands with Hannah.”
“Isabel is so sweet! She helped me last minute and also accommodated a virtual meet and greet for me. I had a repair man in my apartment while I was away and she voluntarily stayed to keep an eye on things and give my cat more loving. Thank you Isabel!!”
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages! In my personal life I have 2 dogs of my own, and I take care of my mom’s dogs! I have 2 young dogs and my mom’s dogs are older. Professionally I have worked a few vet offices for the last 2 years. I also have experience at doggy daycare and boarding! Right now I will have most afternoons free during the week to take your dog on a walk or check in on them! I love spending time with dogs! Taking care of pets is something I am very passionate about, having 6 pets of my own. I am very caring and want to show your dog(s) the same love that you show them everyday!
“Emma was super friendly and communicative. We unfortunately had to cancel our rover visit last minute though she made the effort to come over ahead of time to meet our cat and take notes on what she needed. We definitely look forward to utilizing her services in the future!”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I offer personalized care that truly sets me apart. I understand all pets are different and in need of different care and i am willing to adapt to any routines or behaviors. I have owned french bulldogs all the way to pitbulls all of my life so i am familiar with all ranges of energy and love all breeds and sizes equally!🐶 I am currently working from home right now so i can pretty much accommodate to whatever your dogs need whenever! I own a pitty mix and our days consist of daily walks, trips to the dog parks and finding all the local pet friendly spots around town! Personally, i have owned 4 french bulldogs, and two pit-bulls. So, in client’s homes, I ensure their routines are followed closely, maintaining a familiar atmosphere. Whether it’s regular feeding times, engaging play sessions, or simply offering companionship, my focus is on keeping pets happy and stress-free, just like they would be with their owners.
About: I currently work at the Newport Navy Base at All Paws On Deck doggie day care. I have been there for about a year and am currently one of the lead staff members there taking care of the dogs. I have learned so much on dog behavior and safety. Since working there it has ignited an interest to become a dog trainer. The joy that dogs bring to my life has been so rewarding and I love every minute of my job and being with all my furry friends. I have grown up with always having a dog in my life and had parents that instilled responsibility that came along with it. I have watched and been responsible for friends and neighbors dogs when a helping hand is needed. My up bringing with always having a dog was that they are not just an animal but another member of the family and have to be treated as such. I have been very lucky to have had grown up with amazing dogs. I have rescued 2 beautiful greyhounds that were former racers in Florida. This particular breed is my passion due to the challenges it gives to teach them how to transition from the track to home life. This breed typically has never been inside a home and needs to be taught everything! Stairs, Windows, glass sliding doors, furniture, a yard, trust, and having her own toys and bed. This has taught me so much on how to relate to the dog and learn how they see life. My life currently when im not working is spending time with my family and enjoying the "island life" in Portsmouth. It is my husband and I along with our two boys and Anita (my greyhound). I work part time at the doggie day care. My availability time is flexible. I work half days so im available in the morning or afternoon depending on the day. I will respect the clients home and their pets boundaries and needs. I see it as entering their safe space and would not want them to feel that I am there to change that or threaten that.
“Amber was fantastic, and we are so grateful to have found her! Easy to schedule and coordinate, and we came home to two very happy kitties. Will definitely be booking Amber again, and highly recommend!”
“Maddy was amazing with our dog Murphy! We needed a last minute dog sitter and she was quick to respond and able to help us. Murphy was tired and happy when we got home! We will definitely be rebooking with Maddy again!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, and I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and pets with unique personalities. I have my own 8-year-old chow-shepherd mix, so daily long walks, patience, and attentive care are already a huge part of my routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of slower pacing, medication routines, mobility awareness, and extra comfort and patience. Whether your pet loves active walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply calm companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, observant, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and caring for my own dog every day. I genuinely enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving animals attention and care, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I truly look forward to. I adapt my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, giving medicine, potty breaks, check-ins, cuddle time, or simply providing calm companionship, I’m happy to do it all! I know how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions closely while giving every animal plenty of attention, patience, and care.
About: Mother of two kiddos and one doggy. I just took a break from watching dogs while we welcomed a new pup to our family. He’s a 1 year old Portuguese Water dog and he’s very friendly and loves to play. I’ve had dogs my whole life and love taking care of them. Please reach out with any questions about me. Thank you! Im currently a stay at home mom and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around most time frames and schedules. My days are usually spent at home with my youngest and our pup so another dog or two fit into our schedule perfectly. We have a semi fenced yard in a very quiet neighborhood that is close to a beach. We also have a fully fenced back deck where the dogs can be inside or outside at their leisure. We love to play and we have plenty of time for walks or playing fetch and cuddles.

Maddy and Joseph are absolutely 5- star sitters. They have lots of experience and it shows from their communication, attention to detail and care for our cat Oliver. Check ins were detailed with pictures and we knew Oliver was well taken care of. Highly recommend them!
Alison was phenomenal!! Our sweet kitty, Skye, loved her and warmed right up to her! Alison did exactly what we asked and was very reliable. She sent great pictures and stories while we were away. They kept us in touch with our little sweetie! We would book her again in a heartbeat!!😻
Stevie-Rae did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. I felt 100% confident that they were well taken care of. She sent pictures each day to show that they warmed up to her even though they are very, very shy around people they don’t know. I highly recommend her to you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Middletown is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 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 October 2026, there are 2,086 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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 pet’s routine and the sitter’s 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 pet’s 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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Middletown. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
