“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”

“I had Abigail come to my house to sit my 3 dogs while i was on vacation. She did great with my babies and took time to make them feel more comfortable with her. She even met with me beforehand to meet the dogs which put me more at ease with using her. Abigal is trustworthy and she was respectful of my belongings. She also brought in my packages and took up my garbage cans which was a huge help. I'll definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals! I have experience fostering dogs, including helping them adjust to new environments, learn basic commands like sit and paw, and build confidence through positive reinforcement. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to adapt to their routines, whether that means keeping up with an energetic puppy or providing extra patience and gentle care for a senior pet. As a nurse, I’m also responsible, attentive to detail, and comfortable staying calm in unexpected situations. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure you have peace of mind while you’re away! I make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I follow all feeding instructions, provide fresh water, keep their space clean, and make time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention.

About: We had three dogs growing up. I’ve had three of my own as well. I am currently the go to sitter for my best friend’s dog. I’ve cared for dogs in extreme health situations/have seen just about everything. I’m great with dogs/love spending time with them. I also work remotely and am available to come and pet sit. I am open to potentially boarding, but I would have to talk to my landlords first. I work from home, with two thirty minute breaks. I do not start until 10:30 and can do morning walks or feeding. I’m off at 6:30 and can do evening walks or feeding as well. I’ve had a full range of experience caring for my dogs over the years. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding and basic grooming. I also have experience with a wide variety of medications and have no problem giving supplements or medication at your direction. Since I work remotely, as long as there is some desk space to set up and Internet service, I can stay over any day of the week if needed. I consider myself a good communicator and am happy to send updates or answer any questions you may have.

The dogs immediately liked him and even slept in bed with him. He answered texts promptly, communicated well and left our house clean. I would definitely recommend Nicholas to care for your pup.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have had multiple dogs, two cats, and a ball python for over 13 years! In addition to my experience as a pet owner, I have also volunteered at the Cincinnati Zoo in various capacities for 3 years now, where I have learned techniques in animal care relating to a variety of species from mammals to reptiles to birds. I am currently pursuing a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology with the hope to some day work with animals professionally. I was a member of my high schools zoology and marine biology clubs for all 4 years and also founded a beekeeping club. I am currently a college student looking to pet sit during school breaks. I will be in town and available December 13-31 of this year. I offer free meet and greets and I will not have another job at this time and so can be quite flexible to you/your pets needs. I can come over at regular time frames to walk, provide food and water, play, and spend time with your pet. I also offer overnight stays and can accommodate irregular schedules.

About: Hello! I used this website for sitters when I still had my rescue lab/ hound mix. Now that she passed, I want to support other fur baby parents the same way😁. I had Sadie for almost 6 years. Before Sadie, I house/dog sat regularly for friends for 10years. I'm experienced with reactive dogs, giving medicine in creative ways, taking care of up to 4 dogs at a time, and will take great care of your babies. I work 40hrs a week from 1p-10p Friday - Tuesday. I'm available for house/dog sitting, morning walks, and evening walks. I rent, so I'm not able to pet sit at my apartment. I also want to add that when house/dog sitting, when I'm not at work, I will focus solely on your fur babies and send pictures. I'm currently working 4/10's, and and I'm off on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. I'm available to sit every day. When caring for my dog, my life revolved around the dog. You could expect the same cuddles, walks, pictures, and quality time when I care for your fur babies. If house sitting, I would even let them sleep with me in the bed..... unless told otherwise 😁. When caring for your pets in your home, I will follow their schedule, feed them when they are normally fed, take them for walks when they want, rub their bellies when they want. If you are currently working on any special training with them, I would be happy to practice with them. Basically, I would focus on loving them when I'm not at work.

About: In my future, i plan to start a rescue for animals in need and are injured. Animals are my best friend and i couldn’t ever imagine being without them. I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 10 cocker spaniels, 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I know how to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments and personalities. I also am experienced in special needs dogs, my parents have a cocker spaniel who has special needs and he’s the sweetest dog i’ve ever met. Me and my girlfriend, jenica do this together. I just recently started a new job at the hospital 40 hours a week so it might mainly be her at drop off or pick up if that’s the case i will let you know! but she is so caring and loving to animals!! she’s cared for many animals like horses, dogs, cats, and fish. she’s like an animal whisperer.. she always knows what the animal wants/needs and always tends to them. she especially knows how to make dogs feel at home. This isn’t a business for us it’s a special place for dogs to be happy and loved while their parents are away. especially to make their owners feel comfortable that their pup is in good hands!! 💛🐶 I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. 🐾 What i offer : • Boarding (Overnight stays) • At your home doggie sitting • Day care • Walking • Drop in visits • Clean, and spacious home • Structured play time, nap time and lovin time • fenced in yard for supervised outdoor play and potty time • A calm living space where pups are free to play and relax • Lots of squeaky toys and stuffed animals 🦴🧸 • 2 walks a day 🐕 if they need more we are happy to provide more walks :) • no crated home (unless your dog is crate trained and their crate is their safe space which we abide by) I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why i am firm on communication. I’ll send you updates, videos and pictures so you can see how much fun their having and be comfortable having them in my hands :) I am home most of the day, there may be a time where i have to run to do an errand like grocery shopping etc. My girlfriend is home all the time so she will be home to take care of your pups. Their safety and well being always comes first 🐶 Im 18 and work from home with my girlfriend. We are available 7 days a week. I have a fully fenced in yard so your pup can play outside and be safe. My home is tidy, and very clean. We make sure everything is put away. We know how it is to have a pup that likes to put everything in their mouth so we make sure to vacuum and mop. I live in a quiet little neighborhood. My house is a very spacious 4,000 square foot home and it was a church before it was turned into a house so it’s very unique. I have a cocker spaniel and a brittany mix, they are both very sweet and love new company. My brittany is 15 so he kinda just lays around but my cocker spaniel is 3 so she loveeesss to play.

About: I've had one dog, one guinea pig, two hamsters, and three cats in my day- and I've loved every second of having each one of them. I've been pet-sitting for family members since I was 13 (including dogs, cats, and rabbits). I am not shy about grooming, medications, accidents, or any other tasks for needy animals! I currently am looking for a new full-time job, so my schedule is fairly free. I am available to work weekends, extended stays, or simply a night to free up a tight schedule! I prefer a day notice to booking care, but am flexible given the situation. If working an extended or multi-day stay, I will have to leave twice a day to feed, groom, and otherwise take care of my cat, Butter. I like to know the habits your animals are used to so I don't disturb their routine; e.g. feeding times, litter box cleaning/ potty breaks, walk schedules, grooming schedules, etc. I understand the importance of stability and security to a pet and their owner and do my absolute best to maintain their regularly scheduled care, while they adjust to a new human in their safe space.

FAQs for House Sitting - Ross

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,275 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ross. 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 Ross 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 Ross 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 Ross 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ross. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
