“This was my first time leaving my babies Maggie and Milo for a trip and I was absolutely terrified of it. I was very worried about Maggie in particular because she has separation anxiety and doesn’t warm up to strangers. When Elizabeth saw that Maggie wouldn’t eat whatsoever, she went to the store and bought some food that helped with her appetite. She even took Milo to the vet since nobody else could take him and began administering his meds. I struck gold with Elizabeth who went above and beyond to gain their trust and take care of them. She also did all she could to reassure me and has won my trust. She took such good care of my dogs and I highly recommend her. Definitely will be having her dog sit my babies again when necessary!”
“Taylor was awesome. My dog, Miller, loved her and was very happy while I was gone. Taylor sent great pictures and treated my pup to the same love and attention he is used to. I will be booking with Taylor again and again!”
“Cathy is amazing! Highly recommend. We have two spoiled yorkies. Cathy gave them excellent attention and care while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands.”
“Lucca was delightful with Willoughby, and she played outside with him — his favorite thing. She was accommodating about a last minute booking. I hope to request her if she’s willing and available.”
“Chelsea was fantastic with my dogs. It was a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate wonderfully! She took them for walks, was very attentive and even shared a great photo session with them. They so appreciated her, as do I. We will definitely use her again!”
“We re-booked Jenna for a 12-day vacation to care for our elderly two dogs with multiple medical needs. We trust her to care for them, administer their medications, and keep us informed. She sent pictures all along. The dogs enjoy having Jenna as their caregiver! I recommend her as a pet sitter as well to do drop-ins. We have also asked her to check on the dogs, let them out and feed them when we have a function in the evening. She’s a lovely, caring person.”
“Our 2 dogs had such a great time with Elizabeth and Mazi! She sent pictures every day and we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about anything with the house or the dogs!”
“I had the pleasure of meeting and using MyQueisha’s services twice. She really is patient and loving with my dog and treats him as a member of her family. Highly recommend”

“We had Mackenzie watch Jasmine and Rudy for a day, as a trial for a longer stay later on. We are super happy with both Mackenzie's care for the doggos and also her responsiveness and communication with us. She followed our instructions thoroughly, kept us updated, and responded promptly when we reached out. Thank Mackenzie!”
“McKinnon was great. She made sure to take great care of our dog that has some medical needs. Would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their pet.”
“Mark was absolutely amazing with our dog. He sent us photos throughout the weekend and updated us on how he was doing. Due to our dog being a little uncertain of new people, Mark even offered to come meet him ahead of time for peace of mind. We will absolutely be using him again!!”
“Abby was great with my pup! She was communicative with me the whole weekend. Sent me videos and pics, and let me know how my girl was doing. I'd definitely have Abby watch my girl again anytime!”
“Kate was absolutely amazing. She is thorough, attentive detail, kind and engaged. My animals had the best time while we were gone and I think they were sad. She wasn’t coming back! I highly recommend Kate. I’ve already booked her again multiple times!”
About: Hi! I’m Alyssa and I grew up with all the pets, which were mostly cats and medium-to-large dogs (a golden retriever, a mut, a doodle, a husky!). For my day job I teach preschool art. I have four cats myself whom I love very much! I am happy to come spend time with your fur babies am able to walk and house sit part-time. I’m available afternoons (3 p.m. - 8 p.m.) and overnight. I have four senior cats that all require special diets. Two and two are separated. One cat is medicated (not contagious/ kidney-related ). They all get fed (and the one medicated) twice a day. Between that and the litter boxes, it’s a daily routine. When I am pet sitting, my mom (and roomie!) takes care of the kitties. I can’t keep pets at my place because my cats are scaredy; but I’m happy to come house-sit at yours. Let me know what diet, treat schedule, and medications your pet requires in addition to playtime needs and their general preferences.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Milton is $50

Chelsea was amazing with my senior golden retriever! She came to do a meet and greet and then stayed at our home for 3 nights. She sent updates, gave our pup medication, and left our house just the way we had it. I could tell when I got home our pup was happy and well taken care of! We will be booking with Chelsea again! Thank you Chelsea for the amazing care!!
We had Mackenzie watch Jasmine and Rudy for a day, as a trial for a longer stay later on. We are super happy with both Mackenzie's care for the doggos and also her responsiveness and communication with us. She followed our instructions thoroughly, kept us updated, and responded promptly when we reached out. Thank Mackenzie!
Crystal was wonderful with Ernie and Daisy! She was conscientious, on time, clean, and clearly a true dog lover. Daisy can be a little nervous with new people, but she warmed up to Crystal just fine, which says a lot. Crystal sent photo updates, made us feel comfortable while we were away, and we’d definitely book her again. Highly recommend!
Ciara took great care of our three dogs when we went out of town for 5 days. We have two 2 year old high energy corgis and a 6 month old Great Pyrenees puppy who looks like a full grown dog, but acts like a spoiled toddler! Collectively they are a challenge. She did a great job managing the herd, keeping order in the house and communicating with us. We would definitely ask Ciara to stay with our pups again.
Callia was great. She came by for a meet and greet a couple of weeks before her stay. For her overnight stay, she was on time and sent updates periodically so I knew my dog was ok. It was such a relief having her here while I was away. Highly recommend. Will definitely use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Milton on Rover is $55.5 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 4,622 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.
