“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!”
“Chelsea was wonderful, we booked her last minute after a family member became ill and could not sit our dog, Kenzie. She stayed over night and sent pictures and updates. I felt very confident leaving our home and dog in her care. Will definitely use her again.”
“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!”
“Maddie was fantastic- great communication, asked great questions, left our house spotless and skillfully cared for our three somewhat needy cats! Would highly recommend to everyone! Thank you again Maddie!”
“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.”

“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: Pets have been a part of my life ever since I can remember! Cats, dogs, and (most recently) chinchillas! I love pets and giving them the time and attention they deserve. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to spend extra time with your pets throughout the day. I’m also flexible and often available for last-minute requests. 🐱 Cats • Boarding, including long-term stays • Drop-in visits • Cat Sitting (1+ hours) 🐶 Dogs • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Dog Sitting (1+ hours) 🐹 Small Exotic Pets • Drop-in care • Overnight care Whether you need a quick visit, regular walks, or a longer stay, I want your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so I have plenty of time to care for and spend with your pets. Available for last-minute cat boarding requests, dog walks, overnights, and cat/dog drop-ins. Cat Boarding: I have a dog and cats, but our dog is not allowed upstairs where your cat(s) will have their own private bedroom, separate from my pets. This will allow for your cat to feel safe and comfortable in their own space.
“Cole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didn’t seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We can’t wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.”
“Took excellent care of all of our fur babies while we were on vacation! Very communicative and sent regular updates/photos of how everyone was doing. Thank you S for the wonderful care!!! 💓”
About: I have always been a pet lover ever since I can remember! Growing up, my family has had golden retrievers, cocker spaniels, shih tzus, and my family now has a labradoodle, but I absolutely love all dogs! My sister has also had pet bunnies that are the cutest. I would love to have a dog right now, but at the moment I would love to help others with their pet sitting needs. Please reach out! I’m a high school teacher, so I’m currently looking to pet sit only at clients’ homes mainly on weekends or nights during the week! I provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment by following each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. When I am caring for a pet at a client’s home, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pet is happy and well cared for!
“Gina is AMAZING!!! Feli loves her which is the best testament of Gina’s talents. Whenever I return home my house is exactly how I left it, and my pup is happy, healthy and her typical peaceful self. So grateful we are blessed with some a magnificent pet sitter. Thank you, Gina!”
“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.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Milton is $60

This is the second time Ryan has stayed with my dog and two cats. My Pup recognized him immediately and was happy to see him. It is a good feeling to know he is there with the fur babies taking good care of them and my home. He is also an excellent communicator!
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!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Milton on Rover is $77.04 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 331 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Milton. 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 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.
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 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 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.
