“Very pleased with Hannah! Diesel loves her and so do we! She takes great care of him and makes sure she keeps us updated as well throughout! She is absolutely the best!”
“Cassidy was great! We have three animals, and she tools great care of them all. Minimally, Cassidy is a cat whisperer. Our cat hates everyone outside of our nuclear family, but she somehow coaxed him into cuddle sessions. But more so she made sure the dogs were walked and loved on. We couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Hannah was so great with Daisy! She followed all of the instructions we left and made sure to bond and make Daisy feel comfortable while my husband and I were gone all week on vacation. She provided us daily updates with pictures and was very communicative, which made it so much easier to be away from Daisy for a whole week. I would definitely recommend Hannah to anyone needing a gentle and attentive dog sitter!”
“Samantha did an outstanding job. We have a blue heeler who is not at all easy to get along with and she bonded with him perfectly. Can’t say enough good things about her. Thanks again, we’ll definitely be calling on her again.”
“Kaitlyn did an absolutely amazing job. I would go as far as saying above and beyond. I think our house is actually cleaner than when we left it lol! She is very communicative, responsive, sends updates, professional, and an animal whisperer. One of our cats eats for NO ONE but us, and on the first night Kaitlyn was able to get him to eat. She also came over for a meet and greet so the cats would be more familiar with her which was great. 10/10 would give more stars if I could and will for sure be using her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve grown up on a farm, caring for various types of animals including dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish. I have years of experience working at animal shelters and clinics which makes me prepared for any type of situation. I’m skilled in providing loving, reliable care for all animals, big and small. I’m currently a full time college student so I will have classes throughout the day but am available in the mornings and the afternoons. Weekends are usually free unless noted otherwise. Ensuring a safe, calm, and comfortable environment is my priority. I’ll make sure your pup feels secure and happy while under my care, providing them with all the attention and safety they deserve!
About: I grew up with dogs and I love being around them and giving them the attention they deserve. I'm really active and love going for walks so having a dog companion would make it more enjoyable. Right now I have really good availability because I want to hopefully become a firefighter but I have to wait for the next academy. I'm a very caring and understanding person and it seems that my energy relates to dogs well because everywhere I go dogs seem to like me. I feel comfortable around dogs and love playing with them. Since I grew up with dogs I understand the importance it is for them to have a great experience when there owner is gone. Looking forward to meeting your dog. I’m currently workin part time so I will have plenty of time to play and walk your pupps. I love being outside so helping people out by giving there dogs the proper exercise and attention they need. I love dogs so I will treat them like they are family. I will follow your instructions to a tee so if in your home they have a place they sleep I’ll make sure to put them in the right spot and have all there needs covered.
“Chelsea was amazing! She stayed in our home for 11 days and cared for our two kittens, and checked to ensure our snake had water. She went above and beyond taking care of our home and our fur babies. I received texts with pics and videos nearly everyday. She was very responsive to messages. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“I highly recommend Casey to care for your fur babies! We traveled out of town and she went over and beyond caring for our 16 year old Sadie. Casey is super clean and very polite. Knowing Sadie was being looked after by Casey provided such a wonderful trip to see our family. I can’t wait to have Casey come back for our next trip.”
“5/5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Allison was absolutely incredible caring for our four animals for the week! She checked in daily with updates and sent several wonderful images, which gave us total peace of mind. She went above and beyond by providing treats and giving them tons of cuddles. We will definitely ask her to watch them again! Highly recommend!!!”
“She does a great job, our pets are always well taken care of, and our home is always in order when we get home. This is the second time she has stayed at our home to watch our pets! Highly recommend her!”
“Serena was awesome!! I always get a little nervous leaving my pup and she provided great service, communication, and most importantly care for my little one. Will absolute use her again!! Thank you so much!”
“Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have house/dog sit all throughout high school from small doodles to pitbull’s. I can provide many references as needed and have a Bernese mountain dog and Bernedoodle at home! I enjoy working with all different kinds of breeds and very flexible! I am a college student with classes, Tuesday morning, Wednesday evening and Thursday morning. Therefore, I am completely free Friday through Monday and I’m open to housesitting at your house or mine throughout the week. I am open to come by for walks or potty breaks in between my classes as well. I have a Bernie doodle at home that is very friendly and loves to play. My yard is not fenced in, but I can easily walk them around for exercise and potty breaks.
About: I've helped take care of dogs for friends and family since I graduated from college in 2016. I'm a thoroughbred jockey currently off riding due to injury, and apprenticing to become a dog trainer. I have multiple friends that train dogs professionally, my personal dog sees multiple trainers regularly, and I learn new things every day. From obedience to behavior to nutrition, I value all of the practical use, knowledge, and love I can apply to any dog I get the opportunity to work with! I'm a thoroughbred jockey currently off riding due to injury. I have a lot of free time now, and I've started to fill it by gaining as much knowledge and practice in professional pet and sport training for dogs and cats. Rover is a way I may be able to help out my community by applying everything I'm learning for pets and people that need someone that cares about their animals the way I've cared about animals my whole life. At home, I have two lovely house cats and one rambunctious puppy. My cats like their space and will ask for love when they want it. My puppy needs structure in his day to balance activity, learning, enrichment, and rest. I am more than comfortable providing the kind of care any client wants for their furry family members. Whether that's daily enrichment, getting out in the world, or learning an off switch at home. I'm familiar with excited jumping on guests and earning trust from nervous or shy animals. I have Ruffland crash tested kennels in my car and can provide enrichment and new adventures if requested! If you don't have a fenced area around your home, and you are comfortable with it, I do have 20ft long lines I can use so the dogs get a chance to be outside to play and do their business while also ensuring their safety. I've always been an animal lover, and now that I have free time in my life, I want to provide knowledge and time for other animals and their humans that need a helping hand.
“Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.”
“Erica did great! Will definitely have her back! Our dog Coco, seemed to warm up to Erica right away, normally Coco is slow to make friends. Erica sent photos and texts that were reassuring, and kept me up on what was going on. Looking forward to her staying with Coco again!”
“We had to leave Smoke for 2 weeks. It was not easy for me, but happily, I found Rhiannon! She took excellent care of Smoke and of the house. She even watered and looked after the gardens. Could not ask for a better sitter. We’ll be booking with her again without hesitation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 457 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Milner. 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 Milner 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 Milner 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 Milner 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.
