“Kathryn did an outstanding job watching our pup and two kitties while we were away for 4 days. She was all ways in communication with us and sent many pictures. She genuinely loves all animals an strives to befriend even the toughest ones (aka our scaredy cat and her became besties). Thankful to have had her to take care of our fur babies and will definitely book again for our next vacay.”
“David, we felt an immediate calm when we met you and saw you with Harry. Our snowboarding trip was a blast and we did not worry about our boy. We hope you will be willing for more stays…we want to snowboard more!”
“Hailey took care of my adult large dog and my place for 2 weeks while I was away. She asked great thoughtful questions at our meet and greet and during the sit. I appreciated the cute photos she sent too.”
“Whitnee was wonderful with our pugs during an overnight stay in our home while we were traveling. Highly recommended, and would absolutely hire again to take care of our girls.”
“McKenzie is fantastic. She was prompt to reply to our booking request and very communicative while watching our dog. She also spent extra time with our nervous dog to help relieve her through her separation anxiety . I highly recommend McKenzie.”
“Michael was a wonderful pet sitter for our 4 dogs. He developed a great rapport with them and was super attentive to their needs. He took good notes for us and managed their schedules and took great care of our home as well! Michael stayed later than originally expected as we ran late getting back and was proactive in getting in touch with us and ensuring everyone was well taken care of!”
About: I have experience with taking care of my pets for years. I also have been trusted to cat sit and dog sit for my friends. I love animals and being able to help out! I work at a summer camp so I have great availability especially in evenings if a family won’t be home late to take a dog on a walk or feed them. I also have weekends available if families go on vacation and need a pet sitter! My cats are very comfortable at home and they are spoiled! I will make sure that your pet is appreciated and given lots of attention. I will make sure that their needs are cared for and that they can gain my trust as a pet sitter.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Milldale
Michael was fantastic to work with from start to finish. He was responsive, professional, and took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand so we could discuss Marley’s routine and make sure everyone was comfortable. During the visit, he followed our care instructions, spent quality time with Marley, and gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and we appreciated his flexibility and communication throughout the process. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Michael again and would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy sitter. Thanks again for taking such great care of our most prized family member!
Katherine was great! She was very responsive and always let me know what was going on. Plenty of pictures (I wish Rover would fix the app so you either get the pictures via text or have an easy way to download them as high res from the app itself) and my boys were well taken care of. I think they were a bit disappointed to see me walk in the door tonight instead of Katherine!
Colleen was wonderful! I booked her last minute to stay for two nights. She sent pics so that I felt comfortable leaving my two dogs. I came home and they were happy and well taken care of. She even allowed the two to sleep in bed with her! She was great and I will definitely use her in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Milldale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Milldale on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,673 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Milldale. 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 Milldale 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 Milldale 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 Milldale 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.

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.
