“Hadija was fantastic! She took very good care of Max while we were away. She followed all of my instructions and sent frequent updates in terms of photos and videos. She showed concern when Max wouldn’t eat and even spoon fed him when necessary. I highly recommend Hadija and would certainly use her in the future.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and also the first time leaving my 4 month old kittens overnight. Lana was great! Shes super friendly and nice! The kittens loved her and she sent lots of photos to let me know they were okay and happy! I would definitely use Lana again!!”
“Liana was wonderful and took great care of my dogs. She communicated with me sending me pictures and updates. She followed my care instructions beautifully and my home was clean upon my return. She was also very flexible when our flights were canceled. I definitely plan on using her again in the future. She do a great job!”
“Brittany was amazing with our girl! She send updates with pictures and videos! She even hand feed our girl because she is super picky with her food! Thank you so much Brittany!!!!”
“Rwitika is simply outstanding in all respects whether caring, sense of responsibility, attitude, everything. We will look forward to contact her again as and when we need Brady’s care during our absence.”
“We will continue to book Ethan again and again. He took the best care of our large dog, checked in each day, and left the house in better shape than he found it. Super professional, kind, and our dog just loved him. Highly recommend.”
“Connie did a great job taking care of our cat, Marvel, while we were away for one week. It was the first time Marvel was pet sat without her sister, Tasha, our dog who recently passed. Through this adjustment, Marvel certainly gave Connie a run for her money, but Connie made sure she was handled with care. We appreciated Connie's communication and commitment, and we hope to work with her again in the future. Thank you, Connie!!”
About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats for families in my neighborhood, including puppies, high‑energy dogs, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I regularly do dog walking, drop‑in visits, and house sitting, and I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, medications, walks, and playtime. I treat every animal like my own, send lots of photo updates, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their people are away. I’m a college student, so my availability is best during school breaks and holidays. When I’m home in New Jersey, I’m generally free on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your travel plans. I keep my calendar up to date and respond quickly so we can find times that fit your schedule. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to the routines you already have in place—feeding schedule, walk times, and house rules. I always double‑check doors, gates, and leashes, and I watch for any changes in behavior or appetite that might signal a problem. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and send clear updates and photos so you always know how your pets are doing.
“We had such a great experience with Kayla. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety, but Kayla did such a great job to calm his nerves. She was very patient with him and went out of her way to do a meet and greet prior to the appointment. He had such a good time! Highly recommend.”
“Lauren is fabulous! My dogs are nervous with new people and they took to her immediately. She has calm and positive energy. She spent lots of time with the pups, made sure they went potty, were fed, and got lots of cuddles. Lauren sent me photos throughout the time she watched my dogs. I returned to very happy, cared for dogs. Highly recommend!!!!”
“At the risk of writing such a glowing review that Jennifer becomes so popular that she's no longer available to watch our boys, I have to say having her pet sit was an across the board excellent experience. Our prior sitter bailed on us last minute and Jennifer came through with professionalism on very short notice. She came very prepared and took notes on how we like to have things done. The photos she sent every few days of our trip made us very comfortable with the level of care our boys were receiving and made it clear how much they enjoyed her company. I think it's safe to say they are still missing her! I highly recommend hiring Jennifer, and look forward to doing so again soon!”
“Wilson watched our two dogs and our house while we were away. This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous leaving them. However, Wilson did an excellent job from the Meet & Greet gaining our trust and the dogs. He sent updates throughout the week and even got our picky dog to eat her food. We would definitely recommend him and use him again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple different breads throughout the years. Since the age of 10. Neighbors, family, and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets I’m currently a Full time student at Union County College. My schedule is free anytime after 12pm on the weekdays and during the weekends I can board. I have a fenced yard and two little siblings who love to give pets affection. If I’m at a clients home, I will always keeps an eye on their pet to ensure their needs are met and of course to make sure they’re safe.
“Christina watched our Brucey boy while we were away for our honeymoon and she was absolutely amazing. She sent plenty of updates and pictures and was always available when needed. I would 100% recommend using her as a pet sitter and will definitely be using her again myself! :)”
“Kim is a lifesaver. She watched our dog while we were out of state for a couple nights- providing plenty of updates and pictures. However, when our flight home was canceled, Kim was willing to stay an extra two nights. Much appreciated!”
“Shanette stayed at our house for one week with our Maltese. Took excellent care of our dog and sent updates, pictures, and videos. We felt so at ease and comfortable with our dog in her care. Worth the money for peace of mind.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Millington on Rover is $16.65 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 17,317 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Millington. 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 Millington 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 Millington 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 Millington 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.
