“Petra is the most dependable pet sitter! She walks my dogs daily and sends daily photos of my dogs and cats. The house is neat and clean when I return home. I highly recommend her as a house/pet sitter!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my puppy Peanut. She’s my baby girl, and I love her so much. Ronan is very kind and has a calming, beautiful energy which I greatly appreciated. If you’re watching, you’ll clearly see that Ronan has a special gift when it comes to animals. Needless to say, Peanut was a big fan. Ronan eased my worries, stayed in touch with me, sent pictures, videos, followed my instructions, and went above and beyond all of those things exceeding my expectations. What a wonderful pet sitter! I’ll definitely be a return customer! I highly recommend hiring Ronan!!!!”
“Gabby is seriously a great person! Her character gave me strong peace of mind and total trust that she will take care of Loki. And she did!! She exceed expectations and went above and beyond with Loki. She is responsible, respectful, caring, loving, extremely detail oriented, communicative, etc… we are so honored that you were able to help us Gabby! Thank you 😊”
“Emma was great with Reo and he was well taken care of- I was gone for almost 10 days -she sent me pics and let me know how he was doing almost every day, he is typically anxious and a poor eater when I’m gone, but she got him eating and even a flavor of food he normally won’t eat. She left everything clean and even washed her bedding! I am very comfortable with her caring for my dog and staying at my house. I will definitely use her again.”

I feel our fur babies are our family and I know how important it is to be genuine and caring to yours. I'm currently working a schedule that I have some flexibility with.

“Haylee is very sweet and personable, she took great care of my dog. Will definitely have her sit for us again, I know Lucille looks forward to her next “slumber party” with Haylee :)”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life (I’m 60) except for the last 7 years. I love loving on sweet animals. I’ve had dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, big dogs and little dogs. Love them all! I work full time but can work remotely, if necessary. Otherwise, I’m home most of the time. I have a fenced backyard that is small. My home is a single story. I could also pet sit in the pets own home so they are familiar with their surroundings. My yard is fenced and I don’t currently have any pets living in the home. Your pet would get all of my attention. I’m easy going and patient and adaptable to your pet’s needs.
“Sarah is the best house sitter. I'm so excited to have her watch my pups and home while away. I completely trust her with everything. It's really nice to have an established home sitter.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for animals, as I’ve had pets in my home since I was a baby. Growing up around pets taught me responsibility at a young age, including feeding, grooming, cleaning, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of pets and have become very attentive to their needs, behaviors, and routines. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also companionship, patience, and love. My lifelong experience has made me confident in handling different personalities and ensuring pets are well cared for while their owners are away. I am a full time college student and work a part time job as a server. Most of my availability is in the mornings on weekdays and weekends as needed. I am a reliable and caring pet sitter with extensive experience providing private pet care for families. Over time, I’ve built trust with pet owners by consistently showing up on time, following specific care instructions, and treating every pet as if they were my own. I’ve cared for pets with different routines, temperaments, and needs, which has made me adaptable and attentive in any situation. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering basic care, or simply spending quality time with pets, I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness while their owners are away.
“Amelia did a great job with our pups! They were well taken care of and loved on. She had great communication with us our entire trip!! Definitely would book again!”
“Kim, was a perfect, and I do mean perfect, dog sitter and house guest. She sent multiple photos of our dog each day and spent lots of time throughout the day with her. Our dog was thrilled to have such an active and attentive companion. She was very responsive via messages and met up with us beforehand. The entire trip we felt at ease knowing our old girl was being so well taken care of. We returned home to a spotless house, happy dog, and clean sheets in our guest room. We couldn't recommend Kim highly enough.”
About: Hi, I’m Kyra! I’m a mental health therapist by day, and in my free time I love hanging out with furry friends. I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years—starting back in high school when I ran my own little doggie care business. Since then, I’ve looked after pets of all kinds, and I also have two dogs of my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them extra love and attention, I’m here to make sure your pets feel happy and cared for. I’d love to meet your pets and give them all the love they deserve! I have 2 dogs of my own and would be open to boarding your animal to hangout with my own.‼️ I work 8-3:30. After 3:30, I am very flexible with time and availability. Weekends I’m open any typically any time. I am willing to meet any needs/requirements you’re asking of me. I will treat you and your pet/s with respect and love your pets like I love my own.
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of neighborhood pets, during neighbors vacations, etc. I enjoyed it! I've taken care of dogs, cats, a bearded dragon, and rabbits. I'm currently avalable any day of the week, day or evening. (except Sunday morning). Currently looking for full time employment and will verify when i'm avalible. I calmly approach them and give them some affection (giving them belly rubs, petting them, etc) . I am always careful about their safety, by using a leash, or making sure their inside enviroment is secured. I will feed and water pets according to client instructions. I enjoy spending quality time with the pets I care for, by sitting with them, playing ball or throwing a toy for fetch.
About: I love walking and would enjoy lots of walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’ve taken care of neighbors pets since I was a child and always offer to walk my friends dogs when I visit.

Fenced in backyard, available for crating if needed at my residence. Available for twice daily visits to your home. Daily walks at either my home or yours.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, took care of them and have a great passion for animals. I’ve had my own pets since 2007 (2 cats and a dog). Since 2020 I have fostered animals for a local shelter including dogs, puppies as young as 6 months, and kittens as young as 5 weeks. I have basic experience in dog training. I’m currently working on a part-time contract basis so my schedule is very flexible and I would love to help you care for your pet(s). I am available daily with a set schedule to accommodate your needs. I am an experienced foster of dogs and kittens. I have a dedicated space (spare bedroom) to keep any animals separate from mine, but if they are dog and cat friendly they could be free roaming in the house when I am home. I have a cable for supervised potty time in the yard. I am experienced with crate training. I am clean and professional, respecting your space and routines in your home.
“I appreciate all that Megan does for my two dogs. She spent the week with them. She let me know one had allergies acting up and made sure my dog was getting allergy meds while I was away. Some how she’s managed to get some good pics with both dogs facing the camera, something that isn’t easy to do. I will continue to use Megan to watch my pups. I highly recommend her. You’ll be glad you’ve booked her for your next trip.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Midland is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $56 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.

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 Midland 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 Midland 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 Midland 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.
