About: I have a great deal of passion for training dogs and horses. I've loved and cared for a multitude of different species, including a sheep! My routine is to come home, have some dinner, and then feed/play with my dog and cats. I'd love to spend time with more pets! It's imperative to me that petsitters understand individual pet body language & communicate with pet parents to ensure that every pet feels secure & comfortable.
“Emma was great with my dogs, who can be an energetic mess sometimes. She was responsive to texts, sent me wonderful pictures every day, and let me know how they were doing. It really eased my mind knowing they were in such capable hands!”
About: I have always loved dogs and other animals growing up. Currently I work at home. I’ll help with whatever you need for your furry friends! I can only provide the occasional “as needed” watch and not so much daily daycare services. I have a Rottweiler Doberman mix who is my world. She is 6 years old. Very active and well behaved. She would love to make some friends as well! I used to work at an animal shelters when I was younger. I can give out oral medications. Please let me know if you would like a dog sitter or walker for your time of need. Can work around any schedule even if it’s just dropping by. Please note I have experience with Lizards, and birds as well. I will not handle snakes by hand other than to drop food. Thank you for checking out my profile! Take care :) I work from home full time therefor I am always around. My office has a great view of the backyard so I can keep eye. I have a fenced yard which provides much room to run around and play with my doggo to get a workout in and lay in the sun
“Valerie was absolutely wonderful. It was really hard trusting someone for the first time to take care of our puppy. She followed his routine and attended to all of his needs to make it a seamless and comfortable experience for him. Not to mention, he absolutely loved her from the start! Valerie also did a great job taking care of our home. She went out of her way to make sure everything was in order before our arrival home. We will definitely look forward to having her stay with Jack again.”
About: Animals have been one of the greatest loves of my life. As a yoga teacher, former pharmacy professional, and full-time traveler, I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate presence to every home I care for. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and medication. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, hiking adventures, fetch in the backyard, or simply curling up for quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your beloved companion is in caring hands. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, I strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’m happy to accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holiday care when available. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. As a certified yoga teacher, I naturally bring a calm, patient, and grounded presence that many animals respond to with ease. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs—whether they’re playful, shy, senior, or require medication. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. My goal is to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable, secure, and genuinely cared for.
“Dorothy has a very sweet and kind spirit. She is excellent with communication and she is willing to go above and beyond to make your pets feel comfortable. We truly appreciate Dorothy hanging out with our Gracie, Mitty and Indie this wekened!!”
“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”
“Elisa is the sweetest girl. She sent us daily photos and Bella loves her. We were never worried that our baby girl wasn't being well cared for and loved. I highly recommend Elisa if you need someone to care for your fur baby”
About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I currently work part time evenings and weekends, so I’m available all week, Monday through Friday during the morning and afternoon hours up until 4pm. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.
“Angie is awesome! I just got home and found everything just as I had left it. And when I had to leave for vacation, my sweet girl wasn’t feeling the best. Angie took everything in stride and took such good care of my pup while I was gone. I absolutely would not hesitate to have her back.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the moment we met, it was clear how genuinely kind, attentive, and experienced Isabella is. My Babies were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved, which says everything. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos—they gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can fully trust. I’ll absolutely be booking again!”
“Tarah was amazing with our four pets! We have two cats and two dogs and she made sure they were loved on while we were away. She even got our most anxious kitty to come snuggle with her ? we got lots of pictures. Very responsive and communicative. We will absolutely use Tarah again in the future!!”
“Ben was great. Took care of our babies as well as we could have and they were sad when he left. We have already booked him again and will do so as often as he is available in the future.”
“Love. Love. Love. Ashley was amazing from the very beginning. From the initial meet and greet I knew she was going to be ‘the one’. We have two German shepherds that can be a little weird with their eccentricities and she was wonderful with them. I was sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend which were appreciated. Overall I have NO hesitations with recommending her. She’s wonderful!”
“Kasey did a great job taking care of our greyhound. She kept us updated and sent pictures. She was respectful of our house and walked our dog. We will definitely book Kasey again in the future.”
“Emily was great with our two cats! I have one super social kitty and one not so social kitty and both completely hit it off with her. We also scheduled everything very last minute and on a holiday to boot, but Emily made it incredibly easy to plan and took a lot of the stress out of the evening for us. We will be in contact again as necessary - and thank you SO much Emily!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Shiloh on Rover is $16.05 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 618 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Shiloh. 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 Shiloh 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 Shiloh 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 Shiloh 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 Shiloh. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
