“Paige did such an amazing job taking care of our girls and our home while we were away. She displayed excellent professionalism at our meet and greet and the girls quickly warmed up to her. She maintained excellent communication by providing multiple updates with pictures and a video!”
“Mary communicated well and took very good care of my dogs. She was nice and respectful during our meet and greet. During my trip she gave good updates about my dogs, and took cute pictures.”
“We are so pleased with the experience we had with Chelsea. She was great about keeping us informed about how our pups were doing. She texted us and sent us pictures every day while we were out of town. We would definitely recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for someone to care for their pups.”
“Jennifer was fantastic! Teddy absolutely loved her—he didn’t want her to leave! She was right on time, and took amazing care of him and our place. It was clear he felt completely comfortable & so did we! We will book again. Highly recommend Jennifer!”
“I must absolutely RAVE about Madison because she took such amazing care of our pets with incredible, consistent communication! Extra special shout-out because our dog, unfortunately, got sick while under Madison's care, and Madison kept me informed of our dog's behavior, current status, and cleaned up all of the messes so thoroughly! We love her and I HIGHLY recommend her!!!❤️”
“Ryan was very kind and sweet to my two boys. They were happy when I got home and the house was as I left it. He was super thorough in gathering the information he needed to care for the boys during our meet and greet. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been around animals all my life. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats. I love pets and will take care of yours.I babysat for 4 years while also taking care of the pets in the homes. My goal is to make sure you and your pets are comfortable with me in your home. Currently I babysit 2 times a week for one family and have a job working at a boat company. When December comes I will only be babysitting so I’m looking to take jobs caring for your animals in your home. In my own home I have one dog and three cats whom I love very much! I am an animal lover! I don’t think it’s best to care for your animals in my own home due to my many pets for your animals best comfort but I have a car and would be more than willing to care for your pets in their own home to make sure they are the most comfortable! I will give them lots of love and bring treats if you allow me! There will be plenty of walks and cuddles :)
“Lizzie was amazing! She kept us up to date on Cashew for the entire time we were away, sending us photos and asking questions when she needed to clarify some of our crazy, attitude-filled Corgi's actions. We will definitely be requesting her services again!”
“Jasmine was fantastic with our two boys! She was very responsive and arrived on time. She provided helpful updates throughout the day, which we truly appreciated. We also appreciate her time and attention she gave to our dogs.”
“Megan was fantastic! She provided regular updates, photos and videos about our girl while we were away. This was the first time we’d been away from Joy for over a week and we will certainly contact Megan again when we’re away in the spring.”
“Gabrielle did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs for an overnight visit. We have one very nervous little boy, an energetic “middle child,” and a slow, super-senior female. Pleased to say we came home to 3 happy dogs!”
About: I have had many dogs and cared for many others. It is a true labor of love for me and something I really love doing. I’m retired so my schedule is super flexible. Whatever your schedule I can probably accommodate it. Give me a try and let’s see if we can work it out. I love them but I don’t board dogs (sorry). Couldn’t negotiate that successfully with my wife. I do love spending time with them on walks or in your home.
“Aubrey did a wonderful job looking after our home and five animals. We came home to a spotless house and happy cats and dogs! She was an excellent communicator and provided nice updates and pictures. We look forward to hiring her again!”
“Our experience with Ariel was terrific. We knew our pups were in great hands and well cared for. They got great walks every day, medicines were properly given, and communication was good. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire Ariel again for our boys. We recommend her to anyone look for a solid reliable sitter.”
“My senior dog took an immediate liking to Cole, always a good sign, and Cole was adept at administering to his particular needs, including giving medication and nudging him outside when he was reluctant to move. I've already requested that Cole come again!”
“Carolyn did a great job caring for our pups and home. Our place was left in great shape and she was more than willing to help clean up after our advanced senior dog who also receives medication. Thank you!!”
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m Josslynn, and I’ve always had a huge heart for animals of all kinds. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and cared for, especially when their favorite person can’t be there. 🤍 I’m patient, gentle, dependable, and love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and needs a little extra patience, or simply wants lots of cuddles and company, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, attention, and kindness I’d want for my own, while making sure you can feel comfortable and worry-free while you’re away. 🐾💕 I’m currently 20 years old with a very open and flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and lots of love and attention. Having this flexibility allows me to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they’re never rushed or overlooked. 🐾💕 I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, cuddles, and care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m patient with shy or nervous animals and always take the time to help them feel comfortable with me. 🐾💕

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Milton
Ryan did a wonderful job caring for Luna and Enzo. I had not left them before so I was nervous. Ryan put me at ease with photos and texts. He is a good communicator and nice young man. The dogs liked him and were very well cared for. The house was tidy and he even washed the sheets. Above and beyond!
Ryan was so attentive, patient and handled an emergency situation with ease. When our 4 year old Labrador got sick, Ryan was the best at communicating, confirming he could handle the situation and managed to put us all at ease. Highly recommend him. We were grateful for his professionalism.
Ryan did an amazing job taking care of our little Scout. This is the first time since we adopted Scout that we went out of town so we didn’t realize she would experience separation anxiety. Luckily we had Ryan to take care of everything in a professional and caring way. He kept in touch with us and sent pictures thought our trip. By the time we got home, Scout had befriended Ryan thanks to his loving patience and persistence. We HIGHLY recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a wonderful dog sitter.
We can't even begin to describe how amazing Jacqueline took care of our dog while staying at her house! She kept us constantly updated with photos and comments, something that put our minds totally at ease while attending a wedding out of town. She has a beautiful dog of her own and treated our dog as if he, too, was family. Her love for animals is quite apparent. Our boy just absolutely loved her entire family and I know that he will be excited to spend more time with them!

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 Milton 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 Milton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Milton 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
