“My dog Izzy absolutely loves Drew! He’s been helping me out for almost a year now to make sure Izzy gets time outside and plenty of love while I’m gone at work all day. One of the most reliable walkers I’ve worked with, and he always sends the cutest pictures of him hanging with Izzy. Thank you, Drew!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years and have always loved getting to know their unique personalities and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy giving pets the attention, comfort, exercise, and companionship they need. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a work-from-home mom, pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for visits, walks, feedings, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I love having pets as part of my routine and enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their families are away. I care for every pet with patience, love, and attention to their individual routine. In my home, pets have access to an unfenced yard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of room to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep their pet comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Morgan was great!! She agreed to let my dog Winnie out with short notice, and did a great job keeping me updated and sending me lots of photos! She also made sure Winnie was well taken care of with refilling her water bowl and checking in on her food :) would definitely recommend and will be using her in the future!!”
“I cannot recommend Kylie enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly proactive and communicative, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. Cleopatra usually takes a little time to warm up to new people, but she gave Kylie the ultimate “belly of trust” upon meeting her, which told me everything I needed to know! My household has gone through a lot of changes this year, so it was especially important to me that Cleopatra had not only her basic needs taken care of, but also the attention, interaction, and affection she needed while I was away. I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Kylie took the time to thoroughly read through all of my instructions, kept me updated, and was incredibly attentive. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty, a beautifully taken-care-of home, and somehow my house even smelled amazing! Having someone you can genuinely trust with both your pet and your home is invaluable. I’m so grateful for the care Kylie gave Cleopatra and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”
“Sarah went above and beyond! I will use her again for sure!! Incredible! Even though my cats are simple to care for she took extra time to take them on the screened porch!! So wonderful !”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing for my 2 cats! I was worried about picking a new cat sitter, but she put me right at ease as soon as I met her. She made sure to take note of everything my cats liked and disliked. It really looks like she took the time to play with them and spend time with them. So happy with Jessica!!!”
About: Hi, I’m Elaine! I recently moved to Cincinnati after graduating from Hanover College this May and am really excited to get into animal-care here! I love dogs and am passionate about animal welfare. I have years of experience between my family’s two dogs, my five foster dogs, and from being an active volunteer at my local humane society. Through my time as a humane society volunteer and staff member I have become comfortable with dogs of all energy levels, breeds, and sizes. I am committed to using my experience to ensure the best care possible for your pets! I’d love connect and talk more! I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day! I’m also available on weekends and during evenings Tuesday through Thursday. I love spending my free time with animals and am happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I have experience fostering dogs through animal shelters, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I always make sure pets feel safe and loved while sticking to their normal routines. Whether that means going on walks, playing with toys, or just relaxing together, I tailor my care to each pet. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands!
About: I’ve owned cats and dogs over the years. My family raised kittens for years when I was in high-school. I also had a dog of my own for 15 years. I’m always the first to volunteer to care for friends and family members pets when they are out of town or need extra help walking them during the work week. I am currently pet free and miss having furry friends around! I work evenings so I have plenty of time during the day to walk pets and take them on adventures! I’m happy to house sit or keep pets overnight as well, as long as they can be left for 4-6 hours in the evening! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I have a dog park at my apartment complex, and take lots of daily walks as well. In your home, I make every effort to keep your pet on their normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. My 14-year-old son is gentle, respectful of animals, and has grown up around both dogs and cats, but all pet care and responsibility is handled by me.
About: Ive had dogs my whole life and would love to meet your pet if you need extra help. I currently have 3 medium/large dogs and am comfortable with any size dog. I have a flexible job, so on days that I am available I will not have any restrictions. I can be very flexible with scheduling. I would love to take your dog(s) on any length walk or spend as much time as you'd like with your pet. I currently have 3 medium/large dogs and am comfortable with any size dog.
“Victoria watched our older cat, Lucky, while we were on vacation. She was highly communicative, very caring, and sent great photos of a cat that’s pretty shy. I’d highly recommend her. We came home to a very happy kitty!”
“Christiane was wonderful!! She was super friendly, communicated super well, and sent us beautiful photos of our two cats! She also shared very detailed updates with each visit. Would highly recommend booking with her!”
About: I’ve been around animals for years and truly love caring for pets of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every pet is treated like part of the family. I have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, and other pets, and I understand that every animal has their own routine and personality. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight care. I also make sure pet parents receive plenty of updates and photos so they can feel comfortable while they’re away. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for their humans, and lots of love and attention along the way. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I work from home, which allows me to be present throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’m able to keep a close eye on the pets in my care and make sure they feel comfortable and included while they’re with me. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so having a furry friend around fits right into my day! 🐾 I want every pet who stays with me to feel like they’re right at home. 🐾 I keep things cozy, relaxed, and comfortable, with plenty of cuddles, playtime, naps, outside time, and attention throughout the day. I do my best to stick to each pet’s normal routine so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. Since I work from home, I’m around throughout the day to keep them company and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love. ❤️
About: My life has been devoted to helping animals of all shapes and sizes! I’m so grateful to have met so many amazing animals in my life, and I can’t wait to meet yours, too! I just finished my PhD in animal behavior (working with raccoons!). I’m between jobs and just moved back to Cincinnati, so I’m excited to meet some new animal friends here! Before that I did my masters degree working with fish, and I have worked in zoos, veterinary hospitals, and with wildlife! As you can guess, I’m comfortable and knowledgeable about animals of all kinds. I promise to treat your pets like my own and work with you to help them have an enriched, happy life! I am comfortable with reactive or anxious dogs who may need more attention on walks and use a positive reinforcement based approach. Also experienced caring for dogs (or cats) who might be anxious, unsure, or even just a little quirky! I love kittens/puppies, seniors and everyone in between! Happy to help if your pet has unique needs, requires medication, or needs extra attention on walks or during visits. I am not comfortable using shock/e-collars, prong collars, or “choke” chains, so if your dog requires these for walks we may not be a good fit. Helicopter dog mom to my own 1.5 year old medium standard poodle who keeps me on my toes! Would love to start working with you and your pet to help them live their best life! I prioritize your animals and am available most days of the week. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Let me know if you think your dog might enjoy walking with mine and we can do a dog meet and greet too! I’m conscientious about entering your home and promise to triple check locks and doors when I go! I know it is hard to trust a stranger in your home so will openly communicate to help you and your animals feel comfortable!
“We had Gwen sit our two dogs with periodic drop-in visits while we were away on vacation, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provided them! She really went above and beyond with their care, even taking the time to take one of our dogs to the vet for an appointment that had to be done during the time that we were away. It wasn't an ideal circumstance for us to have to ask a sitter to do such a thing, but Gwen had no problem going the extra mile for us, and it was incredibly helpful that she was able to do so. We couldn't be happier with the care Gwen was able to provide!”
“Charlotte was on time and professional, taking care of my golden retriever Honey like she was her own! She took her out to go potty, played with her tennis ball and gave her lots of love and attention. Honey was very happy and I would definitely recommend Charlotte to watch your furry friend.”
“Corey was great. She kept us informed about our kitten/cat while we were away over Thanksgiving, and everything was in great shape when we got home. We have a Houdini cat who can scoot out of the door quicker than anything, but she outsmarted him, saving him from coyotes who regularly dine on little cats in our neighborhood.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Milford is $20

This is the second time I have used Jenna and she is so good with my cats and their needs. Her communication skills are excellent and I didn't have any concerns about her letting me know what was going on. I would definitely recommend her and will probably use her again for any future trips!
Drew took wonderful care of our cat Zaza while we were away. Zaza is naturally quite shy, so she was a bit timid at first, but within a few days you could really see the difference. The photos Drew sent showed her looking comfortable and relaxed, and it was clear she was getting attentive, patient care. We really appreciated the regular updates and the attention to Zaza’s personality. We’d happily book Drew again and highly recommend him to anyone with a shy cat who needs a little extra patience!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Milford is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $39 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 2,459 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Milford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
