And home to happy cats. Alex did all I asked of her including giving medications. Reassured me the cats were doing fine with daily photos. Would definitely use her again.

She was honestly amazing with our two cats. They both have very specific personalities and aren’t always the easiest, and she took the time to really understand them. You could tell she was paying attention to what each of them needed instead of just going through the motions. It genuinely felt like they weren’t just being “watched,” they were spending time with someone who cared about them. That meant a lot to us while we were away.

Madelyn took a great care of our cat while we were away for 10 days. It was a first time I had to leave the cat in someone else's care, and Madelyn alleviated my worries right away by coming for an introductory visit, sending pictures, and promptly responding to messages. She even helped with mail and watering houseplants.

About: I've lived with dogs since I was four, and have seriously cared for dogs since I was 12. My first dog lived to a grand age of 18, with loving care and judicious pet care. I currently care for 3 dogs at my home, one of whom is a large breed, and trained her from a stubborn attitude (Anatolian Shepherd-Great Pyrenees mix). My partners and friends all trust me greatly with their pets and rely on me for pet care. I currently work part time, and can work my hours around when you need me. I can stay all day with your dogs and provide necessary attention. I am comfortable with dogs of various sizes and temperaments. I can provide necessary attention, walk, crate, and clean up and clean up after your prts. I can also administer oral medication.

Lola loves her visits from Cameron. It took no time for Lola to warm up to her the first day. Cameron is very friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. She’s had animals all her life and clearly understands dogs, and shared a lot of her knowledge. I’ve used her several times in our first week.

This is our third booking with Christyna. When our heater went out due to the snowstorm, she didn’t hesitate to head back and help reset it. Thanks to Christyna, we came home to a happy and healthy Mai.

My first time with Rover and Spencer was exceptional great with my cat Molly. He informed me everyday and although my cat is shy, Spencer tried his best. He was great at keeping up with feedings, litter box cleanings. Overall, I recommend him.

About: I’ve taken care of an array of dogs growing up and have a pup of my own now! From taking care of neighbors to family to coworkers dogs I find that each one is special in their own way. I’m currently working part-time from home and have plenty of time for drop-ins/walks throughout the day and evenings as well as on weekends!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 25 years of pet sitting experience. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. I’m a dedicated pet owner myself to a unique Sphynx cat and a rescue dog I adopted during the pandemic, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pets. Whether your pet needs a fun, energetic walk, drop-in visits, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to their needs. My home is clean and smoke-free, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, safety, and lots of affection. As well as providing daily photos. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for with me. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently working from home full time so most of my day is spent in or around the house. Depending on your particular pet’s needs they will be fed on schedule and shown plenty of attention. For the shy kitties, an extra room is available for their comfort but my home is a completely caged free environment for the kitties. I have a fenced yard and spare bedroom if anxious pets need their own space. I have a very friendly and lovable sphynx cat and rescued doggy that loves visitors. If your home is a better fit, I follow your instructions and treat your space as I would my own with care and respect. Trust is everything and I want my clients to rest assure that their pets and their space are safe and cared for.

Ariana was wonderful. Her communication was great with detailed, helpful, and reassuring updates. I never doubted that my pup was getting the best care and the photo updates made me feel even better. She was so understanding of areas where my pup needed extra support and attention. She’ll be my go-to!

About: Hi! Outside of work, I spend much of my time at home & really enjoy being around dogs! My Boxer Drayke always deserves my time & your dog does too! I grew up taking care of family dogs and that is where my love for them started. At home, we enjoy walks, playing at the park & catching some rays while soaking in all the outdoors has to offer. I'm excited to be at a place to where I have more flexibility and am able to commit to working with Rover again. We have plenty of safe, non-destructible toys to play with with lots of space to lounge around. I'm available weekdays and weekends for any service needed. Happy to help where I'm able to. We promote a 100% healthy, safe & happy environment of course. Hope to hear from you and your pet soon! Many thanks. My schedule is pretty flexible 7 days a week and if I know in advance of what's needed I can accommodate my schedule to yours. I pay attention closely to ensure pets are safe and having fun. Really laid back, quiet environment at home. Want you to know your pet is safe and cared for.

Boy, was she good! I was worried about my 17 & 12 year old cat but Isabella created a bond with him like he was her own. She sent the cutest pics on the times that were exactly scheduled and even FaceTimed me when I replied to the pics. It made me enjoy my trip knowing my beloved kitty was being cared for with sweetness!!!!

We cannot recommend Mikala enough! Leaving our cat Salem while we were away for nearly two weeks on our honeymoon was one of the hardest parts of the trip, but she gave us complete peace of mind from day one. She checked on Salem daily, spent quality time with him, made sure he was fed, comfortable, and cared for, and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout our trip. As devoted pet parents, those updates meant the world to us and allowed us to truly enjoy our honeymoon knowing Salem was in such loving hands. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. We came home to a happy, healthy, well-loved cat, and we are so incredibly grateful for the care and attention she provided. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, compassionate, and attentive to care for your pets, look no further. We will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy, Salem. 🤍

I had a great experience with Jordan caring for my two Golden Retrievers while I was away. Leaving your dogs with someone else can be stressful, but I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Throughout my time away, communication was excellent, and I appreciated the updates and photos. It was clear that my dogs were well cared for, getting plenty of attention and affection. When I returned home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had been treated very well. I would absolutely recommend Jordan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter, and I would not hesitate to use their services again.

Angela did an amazing job! Above and beyond for sure! The only way I won’t use her again is if she’s not available because she took the time to listen to their needs and do all of them. Very good with communication. I got many pictures and videos for every visit. She played with them. 10000% positive feedback from me!

Georgina was wonderful! She is everything I could’ve asked for in a sitter. She was able to help when our other sitter cancelled short notice, so Bugsy still had someone to do her drop-ins. She was super careful and cautious with Bugsy and made sure to check-in if she had concerns. She wrote great visit reports afterwards so I knew how Bugsy did while I was gone. I’m so appreciative of the great care she took of Bugsy during her visits and would absolutely book again.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Milford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Milford on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 3,529 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Milford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Milford stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Milford. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
