“Baylee was an incredible pet sitter for our 2 small dogs and 2 cats. She constantly provided photos of our pets throughout the day, was very communicative, and kept our house in pristine condition. It felt amazing to come home knowing our babies were so loved and that the house was so clean. I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Mary and Olivia were just wonderful! They provided great updates/communication and it was such a blessing to go for an extended vacation and know our pups were comfortable at home in good hands. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone and will book them again!”
“Lindsey took great care of our dog. She was very communicative and sent a lot of photos. She asked questions when needed and when we came home our house was clean and well taken care of and our pup was supper happy.”
“Always a pleasure having Carlynn stay at our home. She is respectful, communicative and takes great care of our fur babies. She even helped care for our small bird. She left our home clean and well cared for. We hope to book her again in the future!”
“Zachariah was a pleasure to work with. Our two doggies instantly loved him! He has a kind demeanor and is a great communicator. We hired him for a 4 day stay over and he was responsible, respectful and clean. He sent us photos of our doggies every day and reached out when he had questions. We will be hiring him again in the future.”
About: I grew up caring for my family’s cats and dogs, and I currently have two cats of my own. I also spent six months at a dog boarding and training facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. During that time, I gained hands-on experience with everything from dogs who were learning how to walk on a leash for the first time to dogs who struggled with fear, reactivity, and aggression towards people or other dogs. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, trust, and meeting each dog where they are. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for friends and regularly provide in-home stay, caring for multiple pets at a time. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. I’ll treat them like my own and do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I work a flexible full-time hybrid job, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability throughout the week. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and overnight stays, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: Comfortable with all dog sizes! I've owned small dogs my entire life, from puppy to senior and some specific end of life care. I've also done some at home training with walking commands, eating, and treat tricks! I can take dogs on walks, play and cuddle! Overnight, or drop ins at your home! I work full time as a barista, usually in the afternoons. Typically 12-7:30 (ish) and sometimes in the mornings 5-1pm. I am able to be with your pet overnight or just during the day, whatever they need! In your home I can provide walks, use backyard space, I'm confident using leashes and harnesses. I'm happy to play with your pet inside or outside. If they prefer company I will do overnight stays.
“Our dog sitter cancelled at the last minute. I had never used an in-house sitter before. Bethany was very quick to respond and extremely accomodating on such short notice. She was very sweet and gave us updates during the trip. The apartment was just as we left it when we returned (possibly even cleaner). I will definitely book with Bethany in the future.”
“Brittany was so great with Fletcher! She took him on lots of great walks and made his days fun. She took great pictures and gave helpful updates along the way. The house was clean when I returned. Will def be asking for her assistance in the future :)”
“Nathan housesat for my 3 Labs recently while I was away for a few days. I was so please with his attentive care of my dogs. I really appreciated how he kept in touch with me almost daily both sending pictures of their walks and letting me know that they all were doing great. My 2 year old Lab developed an eye infection just prior to my trip and so need eye drops and Nathan did an awesome job making sure she got her drops daily for the amount of time prescribed by her Vet. My dogs seemed happy and content when I returned from my trip which for me is a testament to what a great job he did. I felt relieved and relaxed while I was away knowing my pups were in good hands with Nathan.”
“Alyssa took such good care of all of our animals! They were so spoiled that I think they were sad to see us come home. She communicated very well and kept us informed with everything going on. Highly recommend!”
“Dalainee did an amazing job house sitting and taking care of all of our pets while we were away. She followed all of their feeding and medication instructions, kept us updated, and made sure everyone was well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our animals and home were in good hands. She is responsible, dependable, and truly cares about the animals she looks after. We would absolutely trust her to house sit and care for our pets again. Highly recommend!”
“This was our second time having Sarah take care of our dogs. They love her and we feel confident they are happy and taken care of when she is at the house. She is a great communicator and sends lots of photos. Thank you Sarah and we look forward to continuing use of your services in the future!”
“Bryan is reliable, communicates well, and always returns our home to our re-vacation status. Our family travels often and he is our favorite sitter. I highly recommend him.”
“Shoutout to Meaghan for taking excellent care of our two dogs and house! We just arrived home from a five day trip dogs were happy and very well cared for and our house was spotless! I highly recommend Meaghan we will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you much appreciated! Richard & Janet”
“Robert was ABSOLUTELY fabulous! He was patient, thoughtful, and really communicative. From the moment we requested a sitter until after the service was complete, he was swift to respond, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated on all the pet care rituals. He did not flinch when the breaker needed to be reset during a housesit, and he took such wonderful care of our tankgirl, Bailey. 5 stars, 2 thumbs way up, and a 3 snaps in Z formation! Highly recommend.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mill Creek
Courtney was so lovely- she took amazing care of Vida while we were away for the weekend. She took her on a walk, spent time cuddling with her, updated us with tons of adorable photos and was so communicative. She took very good care of our home, left spaces so clean, and even took the garbage for us, which was unnecessary but very kind. We would love to have Courtney back again.
I don’t even know where to begin. Christine is a phenomenal pet sitter and house sat for us while we were out of town. Our pets are complicated to say it simply and she was able to handle the various schedules and medications no problem. She has a great humor, is super communicative, very responsible, and best of all she sends so many photos. She truly treated our animals as if they were her own and we could tell our babies were very well taken care of. Thank you Christine!!!
Brandy is so sweet, I felt confident leaving my fur babies with her. She updated us with photos and texts regularly and did an amazing job. My instructions were very specific and lengthy which she followed to a tee. She cleaned up after herself and left the house immaculate which was a nice surprise. Brandy was very flexible when I asked her to come early so we could make our ferry and offered to stay late when we had a major delay coming back! I can see why she is a “STAR” sitter!
Isaac did a great job with my puggle, Lola, while I was out of town for the weekend. He was able to accommodate my short notice, which I really appreciate. He was on time and did a great job communicating with me throughout the weekend. I will use Isaac again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for help with their pet!
Mary and Olivia did a great job with my stranger-avoidant kitty. I could tell from the texts and pictures they sent that he was having a good time and was relaxed with them. I felt completely comfortable having these lovely people in my home keeping my precious kitty fed and happy while I was away.
Chrystal came to the rescue when all our sitter plans fell through at the last minute! She stayed in our home and watched our dog and cat for a week on very short notice. She even came to meet our pets and chat with us the same day we booked. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean home. We're so grateful to Chrystal for helping us when we needed it most! We absolutely will be booking with Chrystal again.
Baylee was fantastic and we're appreciative of her care for our two boys. She provided daily updates, along with photos, and kept our home in great condition while we were away. We loved that our boys took a liking to Baylee, especially how mopey they were after she left - definitely showing they were cared for and given the attention they needed. I'm glad we found Baylee and would definitely book with her again!
Ashlynn was great for watching our dog Phoebe. She has watched her once before and has been great at communicating with us during the stay, sending pictures, and giving Phoebe the attention she needs. We highly recommend Ashlynn and will definitely message her again for future travels!
Nicole was everything we could’ve hoped for. We were so nervous leaving our rescue pup for the first time, but Nicole stayed at our home and took the best care of Sasha. She came for a meet n greet first, which put so many of our fears to rest prior to leaving. We were so thankful that she continued to send us photo updates throughout our weekend away. We will definitely ask Nicole to help us again in the future. Not enough words to express the ease and comfort she gave us from start to finish.
Claire is amazing! She managed my sister’s and my pack of 4, who each have diverse needs and activity levels. My 7-month old German Shepherd has megaesophagus and requires specific feeding routines. Claire met that challenge and exceeded my expectations! She is knowledgeable and calm, and found inventive ways to keep my sister’s 10 year old border collie and my pup engaged while keeping the 7 year old Aussie and 12 year old Frenchie happy. She managed a complex med schedule as well! My sister and I highly recommend Claire for any pet needs and can’t wait to have her stay with them again.
Shoutout to Meaghan for taking excellent care of our two dogs and house! We just arrived home from a five day trip dogs were happy and very well cared for and our house was spotless! I highly recommend Meaghan we will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you much appreciated! Richard & Janet

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Mill Creek 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 Mill Creek 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Mill Creek 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
