“Kami was great. My dogs looked so happy with her. She stayed at my house and I felt so comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She even put our trash out on trash day! Highly recommend!!”
“My 2 senior dogs loved Maggie and Travis! We are grateful to have such a nice couple close to our home. They also responded quickly after my first inquiry on Rover and showed up short notice the next day. Very happy for our connection and will use them often.”
About: Hi, I'm Sarah! I'm a school teacher looking to spend my summer looking after pets. I have experience working with all types of dogs as I grew up in a home with three pugs with big personalities. I also have experience working with bigger dogs, senior/disabled dogs, and cat sitting. I would do anything for my dogs, so I would do anything for yours too. As a teacher, I'm free during the day to help your pet so they feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you're away. For active pets, I love going on walks! For easygoing and older pets , I'm happy to be someone to watch over them. :) My #1 priority is to keep your pets happy and healthy while you are away! I'll be sure to send you frequent updates on how your pet is doing. Never hesitate to ask me any questions. Feel free to let me know your pets regular schedule, so I can maximize your pets comfort.
About: I have been around schnauzers, and countless other breeds and animals, my entire life. I've raised, cared for, and helped care for one large dog, 5 miniature schnauzers, a cat, a bearded dragon, fish. My first dog was mine at birth. My first attempt to care for an animal was a baby rabbit in the 10th grade, 20 years ago. Sadly, that did not end well. I have helped raise 2 cousins, 3 nephews, 1 niece, and one I consider a niece. I helped care for my grandpa for 6 months in 2011, when he got dementia, and my other grandma, from 2019-2021, also with dementia. I house sat a cat for a week a few years ago. I am allergic to unclean cats, possibly longhair dogs and cats. I've owned 3 dogs, some fish, and recently brought my niece's bearded dragon back to health. I just love animals so much, and would do everything in my power to keep them healthy, safe, and happy. I'm a full time closing delivery driver at Marcos in Woodville, so 4-5 days of the week from between 4 and 5 to between 8 and midnight. My parents would be available during these times as they're home almost 24/7. We have an open yard, with a chain, and leashes. Sometimes we sit my sister's two schnauzers, who are really good, but very excitable. We have dog food and a food dish. I do prefer walks, or outside bonding time while on the chain. Treats after coming in are a necessity.
About: Friends & family often have me pet sit for them. I love both dogs & cats but have two cats of my own! My oldest cat is 16 years old and I take his health & care very seriously and willing to help others! For this summer I am working full time at a daycare Monday-Friday. I am open to checking in on your animals before I go to work at 8:30, if needed checking up on them during my break that is at 1, and I usually am off of work around 4:30. On the weekends I am a bartender & I work the hours of 9PM-2AM. Usually, if I am dog sitting I make sure they have had good enough time playing and they are taken care of before I go to work and if I am housesitting I come back right after I am done. This leaves me with the entire day to take care of your animals! I take care of kids for a living so I’m used to the demands of parents & these pets are your babies! Any special requests or anything that you would want me to do just communicate with me & I’m pretty easygoing. I will take care of your pets like they’re my own :)
“Mark was wonderful with our Loki and made both him and us very comfortable while we were gone. He communicated frequently and sent us pictures everyday. This was our first experience with rover and we couldn’t have asked for better. Will be using him again without a doubt!”
About: My first job growing up was working for my aunts Dog Grooming Business. With that experience, I am able to bathe, trim, nails, and give haircuts to most breeds. I have been watching dogs for family and friends most of my adult life either in Home or at their home. I enjoy being outside taking dogs on walks in nature & letting them sniff all the smells. I currently work from home and I’m the owner of my business so my time is very flexible. I am able to go to homes or watch pets in my home during the day and nights. My home has a large unfenced yard with a woods where we are able to go on walks and explore. I have two dogs in my home and they are part of my family. I do have crates in home if needed, but rarely use them. Both of my dogs are rescues currently so I do like to have a meeting before if a dog will be staying in our home. If I’m watching the pet in your home, I will come over as much as needed and even stay the night if that is necessary.
“Wendy is amazing! She was considerate enough to want to meet prior to sitting with our pup to make sure we were all comfortable. She is genuine, sweet and professional! Thanks so much Wendy!”
“MacKinley did a nice job with our needy cat. She commented with me several times to check in with my preferences. Lucy was happy when we got home. She even left food that my cat likes since she couldn’t use it for her own anymore. Thanks Mackinley!”
“Hannah went above and beyond to make sure our fur babies and house were loved and well taken care of. She sent us pictures with updates and did a generally amazing job taking care of our dogs and home. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for professional care taker.”
About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!
“Jennifer was a great sitter for Sissy. She quickly adapted to Sissy's habits and needs, and kept in touch with me just enough to allay my concerns about leaving Sissy with a (former) stranger.”
“Bobbie went over and above with all my pets. Oliver is blind and still acts like a puppy so he can be a handful but Bobbie and her family treated him like one i or f their own. I could tell that he was super comfortable in their care. She took the best possible care of Dottie and Toby as well. Bobbie was awesome with the daily pics and updates and was very flexible with our vacation schedule. We’ll be using her on our next vacation for sure.”

“Austin was very reliable and sent photos throughout the weekend. Our dog loves to snuggle and Austin spent plenty of time with him and took him for a walk. I would recommend Austin!”

“Bella is fantastic! She had watched our 4 labs twice now, once for a weekend and once for 8 days. She managed a power outage at our house with cold weather and storms. She kept things going and kept my pups fed and cared for. I would recommend Bella to anyone and will invite her to our home again!!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pemberville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 324 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pemberville. 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 Pemberville 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 Pemberville 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 Pemberville 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.
