About: Pet lover and owner looking to provide peace of mind while providing high quality care for your fur babies. Finding affordable, quality pet care can be stressful. I have extensive experience handling pets of all sizes. Whether you are in need of a one time service or extended service, it would be a pleasure to care for your fur baby. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am typically available every day of the week. I am available to provide services/potty breaks every 4-8 hours. If I am caring for a pet in your home, I follow all instructions provided to me to ensure the comfort and safety of your pet. If caring for a pet in my own home, I ensure safe introduction of pets (in a neutral environment). I also ensure they have their own space. Pets would not be left unsupervised while care is being provided.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! 🐾 She stayed at our house while we were away and took absolutely amazing care of our dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were comfortable in their own home and getting so much attention. She sent tons of photos and updates, which we loved seeing while we were gone. Our dogs got plenty of playtime every day, especially their favorite game of chuckit multiple times a day! You could tell they were happy, exercised, and well cared for the whole time. Our house was also in great shape when we got back, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave our pups and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐶”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for many years. I have a dog of my own that I was taking care of when not in school. I also take care of family friends pets while on vacation and at work. I love to give dogs baths and play with them! Pet care fits into my schedule since I am a college student. Pet care can be molded into the ideal schedule and I am flexible with coming up with set schedules and routines to properly care for animals before, between, and after classes! I care for pets by making sure they are fed, have water, and a comfortable and safe place to sleep. I love knowing that animals are well taken care of. I love being able to play with animals and generally spend time ensuring that they feel the love they all need and want.
“We LOVE Katy. She is a delight and Dottie is always smiling when she's around. We were lucky to have her house-sit for ten days, and all was grand upon our return. I am so grateful to have someone like her to help. Thanks, Katy! We'll definitely see you for the next one.”
About: Hi there!! My name is Jillian, but you can call me Jill for short. I’ve had animals all my life, from horses, dogs, and cats all the way down to guinea pigs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have two cats of my own, one of whom is special needs, so I understand that every pet has unique personalities and needs. I am equally a dog person as I am a cat person, and everything in between! Thank you for considering me as your pet’s step-in mom, and I hope to meet you and your furry friend(s) soon!! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which I know many people aren’t fortunate to have. Whether you need someone to stop by and let your pup out while you’re at work or care for your kitties while you’re away, I’m your go-to gal! I have 2 cats that live in my apartment, and at this time I am not available for boarding in my home, just drop in visits.
“As always Patty was/is awesome. Maggie and I don't know what we would do without her. Maggie sat watching the front door yesterday waiting for her Best Friend Patty to come back! Thank you Patty for such good care you take of Maggie and our home!”
“Dillon was amazing with my 4 beasts. He was able to help me out last minute and went above and beyond taking the dogs on individual walks. They were very happy when I got home. His dog Bucky was so sweet and patient with my dogs, they can be a little overwhelming. I was so happy my dogs were in safe hands.”
“We had such peace of mind with Jessica staying w/ our pups while we were out of town. She sent videos/pictures every day and let us know how things were going. We will definitely have her back!!!”
“Mckinnley watched our two big dogs in our home while we were on holiday overseas for two weeks. Mckinnley is kind, communicative, and a great sitter. If you are looking for a sitter to treat your animals like family; she's the perfect fit.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs throughout my life and have grown up with family pets since I was young. Through years of daily pet care, I’ve gained experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, routines, giving attention, and recognizing when pets need extra care or patience. I’m dependable, organized, and take responsibility seriously. As a recent high school graduate preparing to study abroad this fall, I’m looking to help local families by providing attentive and reliable pet care throughout the summer. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I work to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve grown up helping care for our family dog for many years. I’m used to planning around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and making sure pets receive attention throughout the day. This summer I have a flexible schedule outside of my part-time work, which allows me to provide dependable care and communicate consistently with pet owners. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so regular walks and quality time with pets fit well into my routine. I understand how important consistency is for animals and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal schedule and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their usual routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, bathroom breaks, medication instructions (if applicable), and any house rules. I also make sure owners receive updates and photos so they feel connected while away. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm environment with supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, water access, and lots of attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level and adjust activities to what helps them feel relaxed. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, respected, and confident in my care.
“Alissa did a fantastic job watching Uma and taking care of our house while we were away. She sent regular updates and photos so we could stay informed about our sweet pup. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I professionally worked with dogs for 3 years and have experience working with all types of dogs large and small, high energy and mellow, social and shy. I’m well acquainted with administering medication orally and topically. High quality photos during our time will also be provided :) It’s a priority of mine to respect your home and leave your home just as it was when you left and with a happy dog when you return! NOTE: I do not accept 90+ lb dogs that are known to pull/get riled up by environmental factors. I am pretty small myself so I cannot safely handle such dogs. This is for the safety of both your pup and me! Thanks for checking my profile! As of now, I am currently unemployed and Rover is my main gig. That means more time and availability for you and your pup! If this changes it will be reflected here. I will always treat your home and your pet with utmost care and respect. ❤️ I’m in tune with reading dog behavior and language and can adjust my manner to whatever is needed to make your pet comfortable and happy.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Milliken
Kayley was amazing! She sent daily pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were comfortable enough to eat around her, and they normally don't eat much when we're gone, so that meant a lot to us. It was such a relief knowing our babies were so well cared for. We would absolutely book Kayley again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Milliken on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,951 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Milliken. 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 Milliken 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 Milliken 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 Milliken 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Milliken. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
