“Milena took such wonderful care of Peaches and Goron while we were away. Both of our dogs are older and need a lot of patience and empathy, and she handled that with ease. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She was also very communicative throughout her stay, keeping us updated and making sure we felt connected while we were gone. On top of that, she treated our home with great respect and left everything in excellent condition. We’d absolutely book Milena again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter and wonderful human being.”
“Melissa was wonderful with our new tiny Maltese puppy Penny. She was loving and patient with Penny and we look forward to having her come stay with Penny again in our home.”
“Victoria took wonderful care of our puppy for several hours and did an amazing job! She made sure our pup was well fed, played with her, and kept her happy the entire time. She was very organized, attentive, and followed all our instructions perfectly. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“She was great with our pups. One fairly energetic, but in need of calm because he was recovering from knee surgery, and the other a 17 year old diva who is mostly blind and mostly deaf. Will definitely book again.”
“Lisbeth has been a great dog sitter. She took care of two dogs and did a great job with everything. She provided updates every day and sent doggy photos. Both of our dogs loved her.”
“Olivia was absolutely wonderful! She came to my home and took amazing care of Charlie, my Maltese, for the entire day. She arrived on time, was very respectful of my home, and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me complete peace of mind. She took Charlie for walks, fed him, and made sure he received plenty of care and attention. Charlie was so happy and comfortable with her. Olivia is kind, reliable, responsible, and completely trustworthy. I highly recommend her and would gladly book her again!”
About: If you're looking for a dog-lover and loyal caretaker, I'm here for you and your pet! I'm happy to provide a loving space for your pet while you travel, or walks when needed. I work from home mostly--I am in the office two days a week (every Tuesday and Wednesday.) All other days I am flexible with my schedule. Pets are welcome on my furniture--while they are here, they are free to make themselves comfortable! Playtime, walks and car rides (if they like them) are encouraged.
About: I am current graduate student at Ramapo college looking for a new way to spend time with dogs (since I can’t get one of my own just yet)! I just ended my time volunteering at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay as a short term volunteer with completing my undergraduate degree. In the past I have worked at a dog daycare taking care of 15-20 dogs at a time. I pet sit for friends and family all the time but I am looking to meet new furry friends. I’m currently working part-time and attending school full-time on two nights a week. During the week, I have some nights free, and before classes, I have mornings and afternoons free! I will not offer in-home services as I have a family pet that does not get along well with other dogs, but does great with humans.
About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! I am available most days during the day, weekends included. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I should almost always be able to accommodate your requests. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.
“Madison was fantastic. Everything went smoothly and she sent updates and pictures everyday. She is very responsible and Marcie loved her. I will definitely use Madison again.”

About: I started my experience dog walking 2 years ago for a professor’s friend in Winchester, Virginia. Twice a week, I would walk her hyper pups. She then recommended me to her father, whose dog I began walking twice a week as well. From there, my mini business boomed through word of mouth. I began dog sitting in people’s homes as well for multiple individuals for varying time spans. Most of the dogs I interacted with were seniors and required extensive care. However, all dogs owners loved and recommended me to others! I still walk the original dogs and add in others as my schedule allows with two other jobs. I am sad to leave my extensive clientele in Winchester, but I am moving back to New Jersey for graduate school and excited to meet new puppy friends!! For the summertime, I am incredibly flexible with nothing planned. I prefer weekly walks / drop ins, but also like sitting as well. In August, I start physical therapy school at Columbia University so my availability will decrease but I’d be willing to provide services on nights / weekends. During breaks, my availability will open up again! Whenever walking / sitting, I respect the owner’s rules, no matter what. I long to maintain utmost cleanliness and adherence to routine as physically possible. I am also very communicative and honest, building trust with my clients.
About: I love dogs and I love taking care of them as well as playing with them. I have a lot of family and friends who have dogs so I have experience in taking care of all types of dogs.I have a few years of experience with dogs and I just love being around dogs. I get along with all types of dogs pretty easily. I am a responsible person when it comes to taking care of other people's dogs.
About: Animals have always been family to me. I grew up with dogs and now share my home with two cats who are truly my kids. I’m the kind of pet parent who wakes up in the middle of the night if they need me, or rushes to the vet the moment something feels off. When I lived with my parents, I cared for their two dogs with the same devotion. From daily walks and playtime to the less glamorous tasks, I did it all with love. What sets me apart is my genuine commitment to treating every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing play and structure, or a senior pet who deserves patience and gentle care, I bring reliability, compassion, and the kind of attentiveness that gives pet parents peace of mind. With me, your pets will feel safe, loved, and cared for as if you never left. I work full-time as a Human Resources Benefits Administrator monday through friday 8–5, but outside of those hours I’m available for pet care. On Fridays I work remotely, which gives me extra flexibility. I can do daytime visits, evenings, or overnight care the night before. I make sure to plan around my work schedule so your pets get the attention they need. On Saturdays and Sundays, I’m fully available for drop-ins, walks, or overnight care. I care for pets like they’re my own. I follow your routines so their day feels normal and stress-free, whether it’s mealtime, playtime, or quiet time. I keep things clean and safe by refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and tidying up after walks or play. Every pet is different, I pay attention to what makes them happy, extra cuddles, space to relax, or more play.
“Leticia was AMAZING!! She gave us updates everyday and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. One of our pups had a muscle flair up and she was incredible with her to help and care for her!! She loved our pups and treated our home with just as much care & respect. I hope she will agree to watch our pups again and again as we need. The greatest words we can say are THANK YOU!!”
About: Our Experience: Combined we have over 30 years of dog experience, as we both grew up with dogs. We've been pet sitting other people's dogs for a few years now and joined Rover Sept 2021. Our Schedule: We both work from home (it's wonderful). It will be very rare that your pet is ever alone for more than 30 minutes, but if we do have an out of the house activity to do the day of your sit, we'll let you know. Walks: We do not have a fenced in yard but our neighborhood is beautiful! We take the dogs we sit for walks first thing in the AM, after breakfast, after lunch, around 4pm (when the kids get home from school), after dinner, then one more before bed. Runs: If your dog is a runner, s/he can go on a 3 mile run with Laura! Laura runs 3 miles, 3x a week and loves the company. Other Dogs: If your dog needs to be the only dog in the home, let us know and we'll check our schedule. Otherwise, we will take up to two dogs at a time, as long as the dogs like other dogs. We have no pets of our own. Lawn Chemicals: We've never used any pesticides or herbicides. We understand that they are linked to cancer in both pets and people. Smoke: Our home is smoke-free and we ask that the dogs also be from smoke-free homes. Hate Has No Home Here: Our home is LGBTQI and BIPOC friendly.
“Melinda is amazing! She came to meet my pup ahead of time, developing a real rapport with her. During her time with my puppy, she communicated very well, took great care of my dog, and showed her real love. She also did a little dog training, which was very welcome. Love Melinda and our experience with her.”
“I was so nervous about leaving our dog. My hunting partner. After I met yvette that all went away. She cared for my Izzy like she was hers . Long walks and lots of attention. Def use yvette. I will be again soon.”
About: Hi! I’m Lindsay, a 19-year-old college student originally from New Jersey. Some things about me that I do on my free time is going on runs, going to the beach, and spending time with friends and family. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and now currently have a tabby cat. I’ve frequently helped care for pets belonging to friends and relatives as well. I will always enjoy spending time with pets whether it be on a walk or just hanging out with them to keep company! I also have been caring for pets through a different app as well providing walks, sittings, drop ins, etc with a 5 star rating! The same love and attention I give to my pet will be the same for yours! I’m currently working part-time at Ben And Jerry’s. Usually Mondays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturdays. However, I work around my schedule as a pet-caregiver. I understand how important it is to feel safe and comfortable when leaving your pet in someone’s care. I promise to treat your pet with the same love, respect, and attention that I give to my own. Your pet’s well-being and happiness will always be my top priority, and I will make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way!

FAQs for House Sitting - Midland Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Midland Park on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 18,389 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Midland Park. 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 Midland Park 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 Park 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 Park 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Midland Park. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
