“Maisie is super sweet and took great care of our pups this week. She left the house spotless too! I appreciated her communication and all the pictures she shared. Have already rebooked!”
“I am simply in love with this sitter! Not only did she masterfully care for my dogs (even with their long list of quirks), but she also saved my house from a FIRE! The neighbors' shed caught fire which in turn caught our fence on fire (which would inevitably lead to catching our shed and house on fire). The dogs raised a fuss, so she noticed the orange/red color coming from the back yard. She called 911 to get help, managed to harness all three of our frantic pups, and still managed to call me during the melee! I can't even begin to tell you how reassured I was knowing that she was there! I will absolutely be using her services again! I definitely recommend you do so as well.”
“Georgina is a fantastic dog/house sitter. She took amazing care of our little chihuahua. He warmed up quickly to Georgina and she sent me lots of photos and updates, which I appreciated! I could tell he was well taken care of while we were gone! She also kept the house clean and went above and beyond and washed the sheets at the end of her stay. I will definitely book Georgina again in the future!!”
“Lynda was the most accommodating and considerate house sitter. She met with us several times prior to our departure and became familiar with both our dogs. My pups were well cared for and we got daily updates with pictures. The added bonus was I returned to an immaculate clean house - I highly recommend Lynda as a reliable and loving friend to your pets when you are out of town.”
“Nicole did an outstanding job with our dog Brooklyn. She stayed in our home which was a better situation for Brooklyn! All Brooklyn’s meds were given and updates with pictures of Brooklyn were sent! She didn’t even miss us and loved her time with Nicole! I will use Nicole again in the future she is an outstanding dog sitter!!!”
“Delaney was so wonderful with our dogs! We had never left them for a full week, so I was nervous about this. She was very communicative and gave plenty of updates. I could tell our dogs were comfortable and happy through the pictures and videos she would send. She stayed in our apartment and also left it spotless. I would highly recommend booking Delaney next time you need a dog sitter!!!”
About: Hi! With 6 years experience as a veterinary technician (veterinary nurse) and a medical degree you can be rest assured that your dog or cat is in safe and loving hands. It is my biggest pleasure to take your dog for a run, to the dog park, or on long walks. Just tell me what ativities your pup normally enjoys and I will do my best to make they do them. I love both dogs and cats and since I recently lost my pup of 15 years, being around as many pets as possible is my current goal after being quarantined alone. I have plenty of love to give. Administering medications, generiatic or special needs pets are no problem for me to give the best care possible.
“Cam was really fantastic. Took great care of our home, doggie, and two kitties. He was very communicative while we were gone and left the house super tidy. He also was flexible about staying later should we have needed it (our flight home was delayed).”
“Chloe took great care of my cat! When I returned home from out of town, my girl seemed totally happy. I get anxious being apart from my cat, but Chloe communicated well and made me feel completely at ease being away from her.”
“Meg was great! She was prompt and clear with communication and gave regular photo updates. She met with me a day early to discuss some details and left my house in good condition when she left. I'll definitely be utilizing her services again!”
About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, I have even helped rescue a few dogs! I have experience in dog and house sitting. I am working part time currently so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. I am trying to get 10k steps everyday so being able to walk dogs will make it 100x more enjoyable. I make sure dogs are comfortable with my presence and are able to relax as if they were with their owners still. I make sure to follow instructions that are provided for the best experience possible.
“Liza took wonderful care of our dog. She was on time, easy to communicate with and sent photos every day. She asked good questions during our meet and greet and followed through with all the instructions beautifully. She left the house in perfect shape after staying over. I would highly recommend Liza!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and my love for animals has not diminished as I’ve grown up. I’ve taken care of senior dogs and tiny puppies alike, and family has always relied on me to care for their animals. I am a teacher on summer break, so I have lots of time to help out! My schedule is generally open and can be modified to accommodate needs. While I don’t offer in-home boarding because I live in an apartment, I will travel to wherever you are and can either stay there if needed or drop in frequently. Whatever works for you!
“We had a family emergency and Nickolas responded immediately and put us at ease under very short notice. He went above and beyond to make sure our pets were well cared for while we were gone. He sent us photos and genuinely cared for our animals and it gave us huge peace of mind in a difficult situation. We are so thankful.”
“Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away. She made sure to send us updates with pictures and took great care of the house. We would hire her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Schilling
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 297 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Schilling. 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 Schilling 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 Schilling 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 Schilling 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Schilling. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
