“I don’t usually leave reviews, but I wanted to take the time for this one! I was really nervous about leaving our puppy for a week and had never used Rover for house sitting before. Sarah made the entire experience so easy and completely put my mind at ease. I felt 100% comfortable trusting her with both our puppy and our home. She provided daily updates, sent lots of pictures, and kept in constant communication—which meant so much to us. Our puppy was clearly happy and well cared for the whole time. I’m so grateful we found Sarah and will absolutely be booking with her every chance we get!”
“Jessah was GREAT! So flexible in extending her stay when our flights were delayed & even collected my chicken’s eggs for me while we were out. My snobby little Dachshund even finally snuggled up with her on the last couple of days she was sitting for us. I’ll definitely be contacting Jessah again for our future trips.”
“Vickie did amazing with our 4 dogs! One being a puppy new to our home who isn't potty trained. The dogs seems to love her and adjusted well with her overnight. She sent us updates and pictures. We appreciate everything she did for us and our fur babies! Will definitely book her again!”
“Makayla did everything she was supposed to do and then some. My dog Mikka enjoyed Makala's company and they got along splendidly. I would definitely recommend Makayla and hopefully will have an opportunity to rebook her in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mills
Sarah was wonderful with Evie for the second time! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Evie was at home with someone she already knew and trusted. Sarah took great care of her, kept me updated while I was away, and left everything just as I had left it. It's such a relief to have someone so dependable and caring to look after my cat. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
I have used Rover for 10 years or so, across multiple states, and Marie is hands down the BEST pet sitter I have ever met!!! She goes above and beyond; made sure our kitten was well taken care of and loved while we were away. You cannot put a price on peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe and sound. She even made a cute interactive cardboard box filled with toys, to give Beau some “new” toys and interactions while we were gone. She is very communicative, sent lovely report cards and pictures and always responded quickly. I cannot sing her praises enough. Thank you!
We loved Lori! She was so wonderful to work with. I felt like my pets were safe and loved while I was away. She also goes above and beyond in ways that would only spoil the joy you’ll feel when you see it for yourself if I shared!! Seriously, book with her and see for yourself! 10/10 will be using again.
Amy (and Lily) were wonderful with our animals and did an excellent job. She sent photos and videos a few times a day to let us know things were going well, and everything was neat and tidy when we got home. She even washed the sheets and made the bed! Would definitely recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mills on Rover is $42.18 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 36 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mills. 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 Mills 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 Mills 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 Mills 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 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.
