“I just can’t see enough good things about Christie, but I’ll try. She took such good care of my 17-year-old, sickly pup. She went above and beyond. She washed bedding and rugs. She hand fed my puppy, and she even folded my laundry. I was five hours away and there’s nothing I could do, but I didn’t have to worry because I knew that Christy was taking good care of her.”
About: I have been exposed to animals for the entirety of my life, my family has always fostered cats and has had dogs in the house. I have handled dogs of all sizes and all energy levels, from puppy to seniors and herding dogs to couch-potatos. I’m currently available for part-time drop ins, or overnight weekend stays. I am a college student so I have availability sporadically throughout the day, early morning, or late night. I am open to any setup to care for pets, and will diligently follow any instructions given for the specific animal. I am a college student so I am only available to go to clients homes rather than bring animals to me.
“From our very first interaction, Anastasia was exceptionally friendly, prompt, and easy to communicate with. She happily agreed to a meet-and-greet before the job, taking the time to get to know our fur babies and ask thoughtful questions. She followed all our care instructions to the T and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Anastasia kept us updated with regular photo check-ins, and our two dogs looked genuinely thrilled and on cloud nine in every single picture. Her warmth and attentiveness made all the difference, and we will definitely be booking her again. You won't regret hiring her! Thanks so very much Anastasia for your loving and caring service.”

“Heather was wonderful pet/house sitter for our dog. It was the first time we left him with someone that wasn't family, and he did great. She sent us updates and pictures twice daily. It was nice to see he was being well cared for while we were away. She also took great care of the house and left it possibly cleaner than when we left. I highly recommend Heather!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs, learning firsthand what it takes to give animals the love, patience, and attention they deserve. Over the years, I’ve helped my grandma care for a household of five or more pets, often eight or more at a time! My experience includes caring for senior dogs, administering medications as needed, and helping look after dogs with diabetes and other special care requirements. I’m also a proud cat parent to Smokie and Charlie, and I look after Daisy, a friendly outdoor stray who has become part of my life. Caring for my own cats has taught me how important it is to understand each animal’s unique personality, respect their boundaries, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I’m familiar with the responsibilities that come with caring for more than one pet, including animals who need extra attention, patience, or a consistent routine. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to take the time to earn their trust and make them feel at home. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own, because I know they’re family, not just animals. ❤️ I currently have open availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, allowing me to be flexible with your pet’s needs. Whether you need regular dog walks, drop-in visits for feeding and playtime, or someone to keep your dog company while you’re away, I’m happy to work with your schedule. I’m building my own local pet care business, so providing dependable, attentive care and building lasting relationships with pets and their owners is my priority! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities.

I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to help them feel safe and comfortable. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in your home. I don’t offer boarding, so your pets can remain in their familiar environment while receiving loving, attentive care. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated so you can feel confident your furry family members are in good hands!

“Callie is a very pleasant person and a wonderful pet sitter-- she agreed to watch our three dogs at our home over the holiday weekend and they were well taken care of. They are an energetic and playful group, so that was no small task. She sent occasional photos of them and answered all of my questions about how they were doing in a timely manner, which I very much appreciated. When we returned home after a long drive, the house was clean and the mail was on the counter. She was easy to work with, considerate, and attentive to our pets.”
About: I have lived with multiple dogs my entire life and worked in an animal shelter in college. I am a trustworthy, able bodied person with a passion for animals. I am patient caretaker - so I can care from any stage of life, puppies to seniors. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have a lot of availability throughout the week. Weekdays and weekends included. It also goes for my hours of availability. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for play/outside time, and I also have a good road for walking in my secluded neighborhood.
“Cara was amazing with my 11 month old golden puppy. She followed all the instructions and used to send pupdates everyday. Also while leaving on the last night she made sure the place is clean and things are in place. She stayed with him for about 20 days and was the reason we were able to enjoy our holiday. She’s a perfect choice as she treats every pet as her own”
“Taylor has watched Ralphie & Olive for me multiple times, both drop ins & house sitting & she has done a fantastic job. Great with the communication & she always provides me pictures & updates. It’s obvious that my dogs love her too.”
“Katy was an AMAZING dog sitter! Our pup is a little anxious and she was so sweet making sure he was comfortable and happy. She sent us updates and pictures and was very quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. She stayed at our place and was a wonderful guest. We came home to a super clean house and everything exactly as we left it. Wally was definitely super happy when he was with her and I would 1000% use Katy again to dog/house sit!”
About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I’m the kind of person who notices when a pet wants comfort, quiet, playtime, or just someone calm to sit with them. I especially love creating a peaceful, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes, clean, dependable, and communicative. I know how vulnerable it can feel leaving your pets with someone else, so I treat every animal with real patience, affection, and attention — not just as a job, but because I truly love being around them. I’m also available for overnight stays, house sitting, feeding, walks, companionship, bringing in mail, watering plants, and helping keep things running smoothly while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule right now, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, walks, and overnight care most weekdays and weekends. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and being in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely loving with animals. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you receive regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.

Taylor did a great job taking care of our pup and house while we were away! Good communication and frequent updates. On the days Taylor had work she stopped by several times to let Frankie outside. I wish she could’ve spent a little more quality time with her but understand Rover isn’t her full time job. We would happily hire her again for weekend housesitting or drop-in visits!

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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
