“Jillian was AMAZING with my dogs. I can’t recommend her enough! She was wonderful at communicating and so kind. My dogs loved her from the instant she walked in my door. 10/10 and will 100% use Jillian and her doggie magic again! 🩷”
“Tawny was so attentive to my two high maintenance pups! He was attentive, responsible, kind, flexible, loving, organized, super clean, and fun. It is abundantly clear that Tawny is an animal lover, and he is a natural with dogs. He was with my two dogs for almost a full week, and they were safe and happy when I got home!”
“Mark is the best! I really could not imagine a better person to take care of my dog and house sit. He is very consistent with updates on how my dog is doing as well as being very capable of taking care of a house.”
“This is the second time we have used Jessica and we are always very assured. She is super communicative and very accommodating. She understands what it’s like to leave pets in the care of others and for us, she has experience with Frenchies which have to be cared for in a certain way. We didn’t leave our frenchies tjis trip but we would have no issue doing so. She’s amazing!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. Ive always had pets in the house and I have always had responsibilities to take care of them. Our 14 year old husky/heeler mix just crossed the rainbow bridge but we had him since he was 8 weeks old so dont worry if your babies are loud and rowdy I can handle it. I also have a sweet 2 year old corgi who is basically a toddler and a t-rex combined. I have two adorable cats who I love. I have house sat for family members for the past 5-6 years and love getting to spend time with their animals. I currently work full time but I leave early (usually around 6:30 am) and get back early (usually about 4:00pm) but weekends im all yours!! So there is plenty of time for play! I will follow your schedule as needed. I know how important it is to keep things at home as stable as possible when it comes to your pets! But dont worry there will be lots of love and playtime!!
“Brianna is amazing! She has come over several times for meet and greets to get to know my dogs. One of my pups can be difficult with her nervousness and separation anxiety. Briana has been kind, patient, and wonderful with both of them. She communicates well, responds quickly, and is always early or on time for scheduled sitting. Highly recommended! 💯🐕🐕”
“Misha was so sweet and kept in touch with me throughout her stay at my house. I Can always tell when my dogs didn’t like the sitter once I get home but they seemed so happy! Misha even did my dishes haha would absolutely recommend”

About: Hi! I have worked in veterinary medicine for 8 years. I have such a passion for all pets and truly care about their well being. I have fostered, adopted, and have done pet sitting for years for many families. I can care from as young as puppy/kitten to elderly pets. I’m comfortable giving any medications or special care as needed. My schedule is flexible. I can fit pet care into my day at anytime. I have pets of my own and care for them through out the day too! I treat every pet as my own. I have 5 cats and a golden retriever and I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable and loved. So I try to mold to what fits for the client and the pet to make them feel comfortable.
“Chilali took great care of our 2 dogs, our cat, and our house over 2.5 weeks while we were gone internationally. All of our animals loved her and gave her plenty of snuggles. She was prompt with communications, updates, and pictures. She followed our instructions and asked questions for clarifications.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. I have house trained puppies and taken care of senior dogs as well. Love to go on hikes to socialize dogs. With a part time job I now have mornings free and would like to spend time with helping out furry friends get out more and enjoy fresh air. Caring for pets is very important to me. Which is why I like to arrive about five minutes early and have treats for encouragement. Pete and be weary of strangers so I will also be arriving a bit early for them to get to know me as well.
About: I absolutely love animals! I have experience with having up to 30 dogs in one yard and understand their body language to avoid fights and tiffs. I would love to help care for your fur babies to make sure they are happy and healthy! I have open availability mornings on weekdays! Evenings sometime are a little more tricky for me. If you are in need for help over a weekend reach out! I might be able to! 😁 I love making sure your pet is happy, safe and healthy. I have close attention to detail if you have any concerns, stuff to be aware of or things to be checked up on.
“I had such a wonderful experience with Payton! They truly went above and beyond, giving updates, extra love and attention, and making me feel completely at ease while i was away. I came home to a happy, calm, and well cared for pup. I am incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with them again!”
“Zoe is the best for house sitting! She took care of Sparky so well. She stayed in communication as little or as much as we wanted. On our return home, she even offered to start the laundry for the bedding she slept on. 11/10 dogs would recommend her!!”
“She was amazing! She replied fast and communication was great, very friendly and attentive. Had meet and greet, our sent us pictures of our boys. Overall they were happy and we were happy!”
About: I have a BS in Animal Science and have 2 years direct experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, as well as received Volunteer of the Year award during that time. I've walked dogs, changed cats litter, fed rabbits, and made sure all animals in the shelter had fresh food and water, as well as clean spaces. I’ve always had a caring heart for animals, and am looking forward to taking care of you and your beloved pets! Tambien hablo español! My regular full time job is an accountant. M/F I am free in the evenings, and weekends I am available as well. Having a consistent work schedule for my regular job gives me more flexibility to do what I want in my free time. I adopted a bird a few years ago and have loved taking care of her. She is a cockatiel, and takes certain weekly/monthly maintenance requirements, which shows I'm careful in what I do. Myself being also a fit athletic person makes me a good fit for all size dogs and cats, which I have experience working with at my local animal shelter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mills Junction on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,196 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mills Junction. 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 Junction 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 Junction 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 Junction 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.
