“Kelsey was the absolute sweetest. She came prior to my trip to meet my two cats so she could learn a little about them and my apartment before hand! Kelsey watched them over a holiday weekend where I assumed there would be lots of commotion and fireworks in our area and she was very communicative in reassuring me that the cats were safe. She sent me photos of the cats every night and they looked so so happy! In addition to all of these amazing things, we came home to our apartment fully cleaned even tho we told her no cleaning was necessary. Kelsey really helped to alleviate the anxiety of traveling and leaving your pets at home for me!”
“Clare was a lovely dog sitter and house sitter for us while we were on vacation for a week. She endured storms with our little dogs and a water outage for a short period of time and was a trooper. I felt so at ease knowing Clare was watching our pups and home for us while we were gone. We got updates throughout the day, lots of pictures and videos too! We’re looking forward to scheduling Clare for our next trip later this year.”
“Brittany took great care of our 3 active dogs and two cats. We care mostly about the care of our pets. It is nice to have someone who will stay at your home so your pets don't have to be stressed not to mention the personal stress of transporting them to a kennel. She threw frisbee with the dogs every day and sent photos every evening. She took care of them right after the only rain this summer and took the time and effort to give them a bath. We will happily use Brittany again to take care of our pets and home.”
“Brooklyn was fantastic! She provided us with regular updates, she communicated very well, and she was very reliable. Our dog was very anxious as a result of the fireworks for Fourth of July, and we hated to leave him, but Brooklyn did a great job of taking care of him while we were gone. We will definitely have her watch him again!”
“Melissa was a joy to have stay and take care of our pet. Buddy loved her and all of the attention she was able to share with him. We will definitely use Melissa again if she is available.”
About: I have experience working with large groups of dogs with Allies Walkabout. I live with three cats, a dog, and a bearded dragon. I’m also currently working at Petsmart as a bather in the grooming salon, so I’m interacting with a bunch of different dogs all the time! I’m full time and work most days 730am-4pm, while I’m normally off Thursday’s and Monday’s. For pet sitting I fill up food and water while letting them use the bathroom in the early morning and head straight back after work to check in! I’m committed to creating a safe, calm and trusting environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel secure and happy while in my care. I also have plenty of experience leash walking and crating if needed!
“Ashley did a great job watching our pups. Communication was fantastic… pics and texts, as we’d discussed up front. She even checked on our chickens when the weather became unseasonably warm! Thanks Ashley!”
“Sebastian continues to go above and beyond for our 7 pets and the care of our home! I received plenty of pictures that show how well he cares for our pets and spends quality time with them all. He clearly communicates everything that goes on with our pets, from the cuteness to the cat puke. I really appreciate the multiple updates and I can truly relax while I’m away from home! He even goes out of his way on the little things like grabbing the mail, checking on our vehicles, vacuuming, AND refilling our dog’s daily pill container!!! I know our pets look forward to seeing him again.”
About: I have 7 years of experience pet setting throughout Northern Kentucky & Cincinnati, caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve cared for pets belonging to professional athletes, as well as senior pets who need a little extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable giving medications, managing multiple pets, following specific routines, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I make sure to keep owners updated with pictures and messages throughout their time away, so they always know how their pets are doing and can see they’re happy and comfortable. I truly treat every pet like my own and always make their care my top priority. I work during the day, but I have a flexible schedule outside of work and am happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m available for pet sitting on weekends when I’m not already booked, and I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and find what works best for you. I’ll do my best to make the process easy and convenient while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I’m comfortable caring for pets in their home and I will always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m happy to follow their normal routines and any specific instructions you leave for me.
“Dawn is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! We are so happy to have found her and can’t wait to have her visit our baby in the future. ? She texted photos throughout the day and kept us up to date along the way. Thank you for loving our dog like your own!”
About: I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including strong breeds and shy pets. I also volunteered at Cincinnati Animal Care Shelter, which taught me how to handle nervous or high energy animals with patience and care. I’m reliable, calm, and always treat every pet like my own. I work full-time Monday to Friday, 8 AM–5 PM. Some days I work from home, and on office days I come home during my extended lunch break (11:30 AM–1:30 PM). Evenings and weekends I’m fully available and very present with the pets I host — playtime, walks, cuddles, and downtime are part of our routine. Drop-offs and pickups are best scheduled in the evenings during weekdays. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine closely meals, walks, training, favorite toys, even little quirks, because I know consistency helps them feel secure. I’m careful about safety (doors locked, no unsafe items, supervised outside time).
“Jacqueline was great with Harper and stayed with her for a week while we were on vacation. She gave me frequent updates and I was comfortable that Harper was well taken care of while we were gone!”
About: I’ve always grown up with pets around, specifically dogs. Through my lifetime I’ve taken care of dogs with separation anxiety, older dogs, and very active dogs too. I believe that every dog has a special personality and they all deserve personalized care. So I will take in special care request that you know of, and also observe the dog so I care and play with it in the best way! I’m excited to work with you and your furry friends :) I have a pretty open schedule and availability! I can board on a Saturday night to Sunday morning, but I’m not available Sunday nights to Monday morning! I have a dog park in my apartment and share a dog with my sister so your furry friend will have some company. I also have some complement toys, treats, and a spare cage if needed!
“Hannah was EXCELLENT! She went Above & Beyond with my Billie. Hannah sent me a dozen pictures of Billie. She has the sweetest personality. I would use her again and I recommend her highly!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,094 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Piner. 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 Piner 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 Piner 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 Piner 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.
