“I had to hire Peter at the last minute after my other sitter wasn't a good fit. All I can say is everything happens for a reason. Peter was so attentive and caring to my senior pup, it was night and day from my previous experiences. Peter checked in and followed all my care instructions and went above my expectations. I will definitely use his services again!”

“Jen was amazing with our dog Zoe Belle! She provided daily updates for our 5 day vacation and loved our girl as much as we do. Our house is cleaner than when we left! She vacuumed, washed the sheets from her guest bedroom, and all the towels. Will definitely use her again for any future dog/house sitting needs and will pass along her info to all of our friends and family.”

About: I’m an educator, dad, and lifelong pet owner with more than 20 years of experience caring for animals. Pets have always been part of my family, so I understand that trusting someone with yours is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable following established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable. As an early childhood professor, caregiving, observation, communication, and responsibility are quite literally part of what I do every day. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and affection I expect for my own. As a university professor, my schedule offers more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5, particularly on certain weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also a dad, so planning, routines, and being dependable are already a big part of my life! I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s normal schedule whenever possible and will always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. I know pets are family, and I treat both your pet and your home with that level of care and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain established feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines, and pay attention to changes in behavior or appetite. I’m patient about letting pets warm up to me at their own pace and prioritize safety at all times. You can also expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away. I know how reassuring it is to know that someone you love is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I’m the one your dog wants to stay with! Playful, I’m just as energetic as your pet😁 I love to give belly rubs 😁 I will treat your pet just like my own Im home evenings, weekends and overnights to care for your fur baby. We go for walks in the yard. Contact me if you have any questions about a schedule. I don’t house pets in crates although I do have them if needed. My home is pet friendly. It’s a safe environment. My doors are locked and I have a fenced in yard so they won’t escape.

“Riley was great. My Bentley is young and in the middle of potty training. Riley continued to work with him during his stay and took the necessary time and patience needed. This took a lot of late nights and early mornings. I cant say enough how happy we were with the time he put in with Bentley. He left the house in pristine condition and followed up with a call to summarize the week. Riley is awesome and we will continue to use him in the future when available.”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m reliable, gentle, and pay close attention to your pet’s needs. I have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a little extra care and patience. Whether it’s giving meds, keeping a consistent routine, or just offering lots of snuggles, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and loved while you’re away!! I'm a junior in college with a very flexible schedule, and I’m home often and have plenty of free time during breaks. I love being active and outdoors, so walks and playtime are a fun part of my day. I’m also happy to relax with pets who just need company and cuddles! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I always believe that consistency is key and aim to follow their routine closely so their environment is calm and comfortable. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided, and I make sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and attention. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, and always clean up after myself and the pets.

“Deby was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover, so it took a bit to get used to at first, but it was so wonderful. My partner and I usually ask our friends to watch our two kitties, but no one was available. I saw that Debt had a ton of repeat clients and great reviews and I see why! She sent videos of them every time she came over and put my mind at ease even though I desperately missed my boys. Highly recommend booking her if you want someone who is wonderful with communication and loves all animals she watches!”

About: I have experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and species. I grew up on a farm where we worked closely with an animal rescue. We fostered any and every animal that needed us. I love all creatures but definitely have an extra soft spot for dogs. I have dog sat and cat sat. I also worked at a pet boarder briefly where I worked primarily with dogs but also assisted with the cats. I spend my free time at my local shelter and love to get around animals in any way I can! I’m currently working a part time job and doing an internship at my church but have plenty of free time in the mornings and late afternoon to take care of your pets! I will take each pets individual needs into consideration to make sure they’re receiving the care they need. Each dog is different and requires different things so I will make sure I’m prioritizing their needs to provide an enjoyable and healthy experience.

About: I’ve been volunteering at an animal shelter for the past year. Working with the dogs there a lot. Also taken care of friends and families dogs before. I work Monday through Thursday. Mainly free on Fridays and Saturdays. That could change, some Saturdays I’m busy with personal stuff. I am free for the most part though. I have not cared for a pet in my own home. My apartment lease does not allow pets. Unfortunately will not be able to care for pets in my home.

About: I love dogs, and while I’m not planning on getting one of my own right now, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! Since I work remotely from home, I have the flexibility to give your dog plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. That allows me to give dogs regular attention, take them on walks, provide playtime, and make sure they stay on their normal feeding and potty schedule. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a chore! it’s something I look forward to. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of attention throughout the day. Since I work remotely, I’m home most of the time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I was trained how to train dogs at an early age after our first dog was trained by our breeder. Since then I trained 2 golden retrievers and an Australian Cattle dog (red heeler). Both breeds are strong willed and have high energy. I work from home and so have a lot of freedom to break away to take care of dogs. I enjoy taking care of dogs and sharing the knowledge from my experience of training and raising dogs. I have a large beautiful fenced yard, have multiple crates for use and live within walking distance of a dog park. I have kids that will make sure your dog gets lots of love while being boarded.

About: Growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs and various animals, I developed a deep love for pet care. Now, with three beloved cats of my own, I bring years of hands-on experience and genuine passion to every pet I care for. Your pet will be treated like family! I work until 4pm Monday through Friday. I can be available any time after that during the week, and am available any time on the weekends. In both my home and clients' homes, I prioritize safety and comfort. I maintain a pet-friendly, clean environment, always following any specific care instructions to ensure your pet's routine is uninterrupted. Building trust through clear communication and attentive care is my top priority, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands.

I started after I brought in a puppy from the street and they loved that I loved a dog I’ve never even met so much to take her home and they signed me up for volunteer work! I love dogs so much I will always make time for them! Aghhh I can’t even put it into words how much I love dogs! I take great care of my pets! They all have had birthday parties as well as their own clothes for winter and things! I love all pets the same!

FAQs for House Sitting - Midfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 533 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Midfield. 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 Midfield 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 Midfield 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 Midfield 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 Midfield. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
