“Anthony always takes great care of my German Shepard and cat. I have a bi-polar older German Shepard that is not great with new people he took to Anthony quick which made me ease my mind. I will definitely be using him.”
“Claire and Weston were great! They watched our two dogs at our house while we were out of town for about a week. No complaints. They kept the dogs happy, sent us pictures, were responsive, and kept our house clean. We will definitely be using them again!”
“Abby was great! We had to book a last minute stay and she was able to accommodate. She did great with our girls and they stayed on their normal routine without interruption. We would be happy to have her back!”
“Adrienna was an excellent house sitter for my dogs! We had some last minute plans come up and she was eager to help us for the weekend. She kept us updated, and texted us with any concerns she had. I definitely felt like my dogs were safe and happy with her. We would definitely have her pet sit again!”
“Samantha was wonderful with our two dogs and Guinea pigs. She made them feel comfortable and safe while we were away. She kept us up to date throughout our entire trip and we look forward to booking her in the future!”
About: I have cared for pets for over 7 years now. I adore both dogs and cats and I genuinely enjoy loving on them and spending time with them! I have had multiple pets of my own (including dogs, cats, fish, and a turtle!) so I am familiar with all things feeding, walks, play time, snuggles, and medicine if needed. I am also always willing to help out with other household duties while you are away such as bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, etc. I look forward to hearing from you and the opportunity to help you and your fur babies! 🥰 I am a college student so I have some classes during the day. My classes are never longer than 2 hours so I able to come to your house frequently. I also play softball so I have classes that range from 1-3 hours. I am able to stop by morning, afternoon, evening, and before bed when needed. I am only able to care for your pets in your home. At your home, I will keep your house secure by locking all doors behind me and always keeping your dog on a leash (unless otherwise specified).
“Morgan was so sweet with our pups! She came to meet them and us ahead of our trip so we could all feel confident in the situation. She sent lots of photos and made sure they had plenty of play time while we were away.”
About: I have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience and have had dogs my entire life, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized care and maintaining each pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to pet sitting, I occasionally volunteer at a puppy nursery that cares for rescued mother dogs and their newborn puppies. This experience has given me additional exposure to caring for young puppies, monitoring their needs, and helping provide a safe and nurturing environment during an important stage of their development. I am comfortable caring for multiple pets, administering basic medications if needed, and providing extra patience and attention to puppies, senior pets, and animals with specific routines. Whether a pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having companionship throughout the day, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to provide reliable, attentive care while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I am currently taking online classes over the summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. My priority is always providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets. I live on 12 acres in a quiet setting and have one small, very friendly Cocker Spaniel. While my yard is not fenced, pets are always supervised outdoors and can be kept on long leads for safe exercise and exploration when appropriate. I never allow pets off-leash unless specifically instructed by the owner and it is safe to do so. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their environment clean and secure. I understand that trust is important when someone is caring for a beloved pet, so I maintain open communication and provide regular updates and photos. I also pay close attention to each pet's behavior and needs to ensure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my time with them.
About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs since around age nine after my sister stopped being the go-to sitter. My family has had dogs my whole life and only recently decided to take on a cat as well. Said cat is not a fan of our dog Kora, but I have hope! My childhood dog, Scout, was my best friend and I learned a lot about caring for senior pups with her. I am dedicated to helping pet parents feel comfortable with their sitter because, seriously it is scary to leave our pets! I am a part time employee at Hy-Vee. My work schedule is varying so I tend to have a very flexible schedule! I graduated from Hickman High School this year and will be attending Central Michigan University for college. I will have limited availability during the school year but hope to continue caring for pets over breaks! I make it my priority to give pets extra attention (if desired) while their family is away! Potty breaks can be as much or as few as thought necessary. I keep a close attention to detail and will follow any special instructions no matter how silly or difficult they may be. Every pet needs different care and I want to make a plan that will work for everyone involved!
“Ally is wonderful! She did such a great job with our three attention-loving goldens and gave us complete peace of mind while we were on our trip. We loved the sweet updates and really appreciated her attentiveness (she even reached out to ask about pain management for one of our senior goldens when she started looking stiff after fetch). Highly recommend and won’t hesitate to book with Ally again!”
“Ehlana went above and beyond for our cats. First time here for Ehlana, tornado sirens went off, she got herself, cats, food, water, and bedding to the basement and back when safe. Her care for our cats was exemplary for the rest of her stay. Very responsible and dependable sitter . Highly recommend!”
“Bailey did an amazing job with Brandy! I had never left her alone with someone who wasn’t family, and Brandy can be a bit anxious, so I was nervous, but Bailey did great with her. She sent lots of photos and let me know when she was coming and going from my place. Brandy got put on medication the day before I left which she took in stride. Highly recommend!”
“We were originally going to board our dogs during our destination wedding, but I got nervous last minute. Mackenzie saved the day for us. Our dogs loved her and they got to stay home with their routines instead of being anxious somewhere new. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend 💓”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable and caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. Whether your furry friend needs a walk, drop-in visit, overnight care, or a safe place to stay, I'm committed to providing the same love, attention, and patience I'd give my own pets. I believe every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I'm happy to care for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I'm comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when you're away from your pet, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout each visit. My goal is to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while giving you confidence that they're in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! I am currently in between jobs, so my schedule is completely open to taking care of your fur baby while you are away. You’re dog will get plenty of attention while in my care. I have one playful, loving fur baby of my own to keep yours entertained. Can be crated if you prefer while i’m away from home. Will always have the option to water, food, toys, play time/outside time.
About: I have had pets since I was 11, including lots of cats and large dogs. I also have experience taking care of elderly pets, my Shiba just turned 14! I’m currently working part time and an a student, so late morning and early afternoon work best. But time could be made in the later evening as well for walks or drop ins! I have a large backyard space and live in a great family friendly, walkable neighborhood. I also have plenty of experience house sitting, beyond just watching your pets!
“Lucas is a great dog sitter! He takes the best care of our big slobbery hound (and our house) so I don’t worry about anything while we’re away. I appreciate all the thoughtful updates and pictures he sends, too.”

Very helpful! New to this App, and she assisted me with scheduling time appropriately and she even proactively set up a meet and greet to help establish care. She sent updates throughout the day and photos and kept me in the loop with how my dog was doing the whole day. Highly recommend for all dog care needs.

FAQs for House Sitting - Midway
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Midway on Rover is $29.41 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 204 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Midway. 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 Midway 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 Midway 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 Midway 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 Midway. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 80% 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.
