“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★”
“Joey is absolutely wonderful! Our three Labrador boys really loved him and it put our minds at ease. He was very professional and made sure to re-visit our home before we left on our vacation so our boys could meet him again and to learn their schedule and ask questions. We had zero concerns while we were away which was very nice. He also sent us amazing photos of our boys every day. When we returned, the house was pretty much in the same shape as we left it. It was a great surprise to not have to come home to a mess. We could go on and on about how wonderful he is but overall, if you are looking for a great dog sitter, we would definitely recommend Joey!”
About: I grew up around animals. I have taken care of my own dogs, cats, rabbits and fish throughout my life. I have also taken care of friends pets when they’ve gone out of town. I am comfortable with large and small dogs, cats, and caged animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your pets. I have a 4yr old who is comfortable around animals and I am available for boarding if your animal is comfortable with men, women, and children. I live on a quiet street in an apartment and look forward to walking with your dog at my home or yours. I am comfortable working with multiple kinds of collars and leashes.
“Haley was absolutely incredible! Our dogs have been sat before and when we come home they seem to be in a funk. But with Haley, it felt as though our pups had been so well taken care of! Not to mention our home was so cared for as well. She was very communicative, and open! Highly highly recommend her! She’s just lovely!”
“Parker is the most wonderful house sitter! He took wonderful care of our two Great Danes and our house. He provided lots of great updates and pictures. I know our dogs will miss him as much as we appreciate having him to look after them. It is such a relief to have someone you can trust to look after your pets and house. Can't wait to book with him again!”
“Aziya was very attentive, came to the house for all information regarding her stay and care for Brie. Brie was very happy and healthy when we came home. House was clean, sheets and towels washed. She was very responsive, sent us pics and updates.”
About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and have experience caring for my own pets as well as my family’s pets. I’ve helped with everyday care including feeding, providing fresh water, potty breaks, keeping them comfortable, and of course, giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I genuinely love animals and take pride in creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I’m responsible, attentive, patient, and always happy to learn about each pet’s unique personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply relaxing by your side, I’m excited to give them the care and attention they deserve! I look forward to continuing to grow my knowledge and experience while making sure every pet feels loved, safe, and right at home. 🐾❤️ 🕐 Available 24/7 — flexible scheduling I’m happy to work with your schedule and can accommodate early mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight care. I’m flexible and will do my best to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need when you need it! My mom is allergic to most pets so I provide in-home pet care services. When I care for pets in their own home, I follow the specific instructions provided by the pet owners. This includes feeding them, giving them fresh water, taking them for walks, and providing playtime and companionship. I also ensure that their living space is clean and tidy. The goal is to make the pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away.
“Connor took good care of our dog and sent photos of their time together. Due to an electric outage where we stayed at we were not able to get the photos till later. However it appears he took good care of our dog and our house was in good condition when we returned from vacation.”
“Fran is a very friendly, kind-hearted person who loves dogs! She took great care of our doggie and gave us updates on how he was doing - which put our minds at ease. Would definitely call on her again!”
“Christine took great care of our two dogs and our home for a full week. We received updates daily with pictures of the dogs enjoying their time with Christine and came home to the house in fantastic shape. We hope to have Christine again when we’re out of time next!”
“Good communication with Nikki, the house was neat & clean & Daisy well cared for with regular photos and updates. Only issue was our automatic lid opener on our trash can was somwehow not working properly when we returned.”
“Vicki is a God send! Reliable, responsible, courteous and absolutely wonderful with my two dogs. I have utilized Vicki for both drop in visits and overnight stays, which have ranged from weekend stays to full week stays. Vicki is great with open communication and provides regular updates, including photos. She is also very flexible with her schedule and answers reservation requests within 24 hours. I would highly recommend this pet sitter! A+++”
“This is our second time booking with Hanna and she has been amazing both times! She always takes the time to play with our dogs, and from the pictures she sends, they really love her!”
“Sarah was amazing. She watched our 2 dogs for our wedding. She was on time for our booking, took the boys for a walk and sent update photos which helped ease our minds that everything was being taken care of. Definitely would recommend her and book her again.”
“Edward did a great job for us. He and our dog Buddy got along famously, and he was especially diligent about keeping us informed about Buddy’s time with him. Edward stayed with Buddy for five days and kept us up-to-date throughout. Additionally, the house was left in perfect condition. We will certainly use Edward for our next trip away.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Mumford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 540 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mumford. 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 Mumford 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 Mumford 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 Mumford 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.
