“Rachel is fantastic! She responded quickly from my first inquiry. We have two large and overly friendly spoiled rotten labs. She is experienced with large dogs and is able to walk them with ease! She gives them lots of attention. One of our dogs is needy and a bit anxious and he is very comfortable with her. She sends updates and pics to relieve my anxiety too! Highly recommend Rachel!!!”
“Elizabeth is very responsive. She took great care of my nervous pup and cat on short notice. She left the house cleaner than it was when she arrived, I think! We've already booked our next sit with Elizabeth and I look forward to having great peace of mind while we are gone.”
“Whitney was so good with my dog Grizzly, It was as if she understood Grizzly the moment they met. I had a scheduling mix-up and Whitney was more than accommodating to help me out by staying longer than what was scheduled on Rover. She sent me pictures of grizzly and told me how she exercised him which is really important for a growing Labrador. I would absolutely love to have Whitney come back and take care of him again. Five stars all the way around. And, she was good enough to strip the bed, you don't find that hardly anywhere anymore. Thank you Whitney did a great job.”
“Brandy took fantastic care of our mostly senior pack of four dogs and two cats while we were away. She has a calming, patient, and compassionate presence which all of the animals responded to very positively. She communicated each day with message updates which I appreciated very much. She also took great care of our home, leaving it clean and tidy. I plan to contact Brandy again for future stays and recommend her highly!”
“Alexandra was great with our high energy pup and our two indoor cats. She stayed in our home for a week while we traveled internationally. She gave great updates, helped around the house, and sent pictures frequently. We will definitely use her again and recommend her highly!”
“This was my first time working with Annie and she was so great! She stayed at my house and watched my very nervous pup. Because my dog gets anxious when I’m away, there’s various tricks and methods to draw her out, get her to go on walks, and even to just get her to eat her food. Annie went above and beyond in following my various instructions and tips and it showed in how responsive and comfortable my dog was so quickly. I would highly recommend Annie for anyone who has an anxious pup (or gets anxious leaving their dog too). I loved how communicative she is and she sent me daily photos to ease how much I missed my dog. I’m excited to work with Annie again in the future! My dog was in wonderful hands and so was my house.”
“Kelly went above and beyond! Great communication, very trustworthy, and you can tell she truly cares. I will trust her to watch my pets and home any time. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Maddy housesat for our two dogs for a one night stay. She was flexible, punctual, communicative, followed our instructions and the dogs were content when we arrived home. I would use her again for any future travels.”
“This was my first Pet Sitter experience with Bradley and what I think stands out the most to me about Bradley is that he genuinely cared about and for our dog, Huxley, while we were away. I know a lot of people say that they love animals, but you could see the authenticity in Bradley as he greeted and played with Huxley. I highly recommend Bradley”
“Kaitlyn was great to work with - excellent communication, respectful of our home, and just overall a lovely person. She was great with our pup and he took to her right away. Would definitely use her services again and highly recommend.”
“Jenna is awesome! She was super responsive, sent lots of photos, and we felt so comfortable having her with our pup! We look forward to having her watch Rosie again if she is willing 😊”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for more than 20 years, and animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”—they’re family. I’m loving, patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior, comfort, and safety. Whether your dog wants to play, go for a walk, or curl up next to me for cuddles, I want them to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and cared for. ❤️ My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the week for dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. I enjoy being able to spend quality time with each pet rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s routine, comfort, and individual needs will always be top priority. Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are extremely important to me. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, boundaries, and any special needs. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their home and their pet’s established routine. I provide lots of affection, attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while always keeping safety first. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾❤️
“Melody did an amazing job taking care of our pets AND home! We felt extremely comfortable leaving them in her care. She was great at communicating, sent frequent updates, and really devoted her time to ensuring everything went smoothly. Truly an amazing sitter. We would absolutely reach out to her to watch our pets again!”
“Abram cared for our pups and house like they were his own. He clarified care to ensure he did things like our labs were used to and was very respectful. I felt so reassured with him at my house while I was out of town! I highly recommend Abram’s services and will be utilizing his care again in the future 🙌🐾”
“Christine was amazing with our dog and 2 cats. I received photos and/or videos every day and it was clear they were very well taken care of! She left the house neat and clean, and I would use her again in a minute! I highly recommend her, she was great.”
“Jaedyn has home-sat our 3 little dogs twice now and can’t say enough good things about him. Most importantly, I know I can feel confident in their safety. He’s super fast to communicate and punctual. And also, this is a person who the dogs really just love to see. A++”
“Jade was amazing. She provided an update on how Maya was doing and made sure that the house was secure the entire time I was gone along with also ensuring that the house was kept clean and orderly! Cannot recommend her enough!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Millersburg
Megan did a wonderful job watching our two dogs that have medication needs. I would highly recommend her as a sitter. She kept me updated with pictures and messages. Both dogs looked happy and well taken care of. I was out of state and driving home and Megan let me know that if I was delayed, she was willing to come over and check on my dogs. My house was clean and in order when I came home. Agai, I would recommend her a a sitter.
Kelly was amazing! This was the longest we have ever said away from our animals and Kelly made sure to update us everyday all day long! She did new activities with our dog and spoiled her just as much as we do😂 our cat even loved her and our cat is kindy picky 😂 we will 100% use her again!

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 Millersburg 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 Millersburg 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 Millersburg 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 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.
