“Riley was fantastic!! We booked late but she was able to accommodate our request. Riley sent us video updates on how Gigi was doing, Gigi looked very happy and comfortable with Riley. We highly recommend Riley to anyone that needs sitting service.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving them attention, or making sure they’re fed and comfortable. I've always had pets growing up and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m happy to follow your instructions and routines to make sure your pet gets the best care possible! I have a flexible schedule and can coordinate pet care around your needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and feeding, and I can discuss availability for weekends and weekdays in advance. I want to make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away! I will make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable environment and follow any instructions their owners provide. I’ll keep food, water, and supplies accessible, make sure doors and gates are secure, and pay attention to each pet’s surroundings to help prevent accidents.
“Nneka took such wonderful care of Rex. He struggles with separation anxiety, but he felt safe and comfortable with her right away. She has such a kind, calming energy that really put me (and Rex) at ease. She was also very responsive and great with communication—after our initial contact, we quickly arranged a meet and greet, which made everything feel so smooth and reassuring. Her dog, Esperanza, is absolutely adorable, and it’s clear they share such a loving bond. Seeing how well she cares for her own dog gave me even more confidence. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“Stephany was wonderful! My wife and I recently moved to Texas and didn't have anyone close to help us so we turned to Rover for the first time. Stephany was so easy to work with, she is met with us for a meet and greet, took the time to keep contact with us while we were gone with daily updates, and kept up our house as well! I would recommend Stephany to anyone!”
“Penny is the absolute best you could hope for. She loved our babies like we do and that's the most we could ask for. She's wise, smart, fun and very good at caretaking. Definitely recommended and will have her over again soon. Thx Penny, Blitz Tucker Willow and Daisy say " thank you! " ♥️♥️♥️♥️”
About: I've taken care of dogs for about four years now. I first started when my roommate left for Korea for about a month. I've always had an affinity towards dogs so taking care of his dog made me want to take care of other dogs as well. Ever since then, I've been able to take care of 18 other dogs. Whether it be playing with your pets or walking them around or going potty, I have everything covered! I have time to take care of your pets on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday between the times of 11:30 AM to midnight. Also, Saturdays I am free whenever. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. Whether in my home or the client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and lots of attention. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.
“I can't say enough good things about Sarah as a person and a dog sitter! She took incredible care of Dolly, and I felt completely at ease leaving her in Sarah’s hands. From the moment we met, I could tell that Sarah was not only trustworthy but also genuinely loved dogs. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which made me feel connected to Dolly while I was away. Dolly was happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so grateful for Sarah’s wonderful services and will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
“Marta and Marshall are the perfect team. We have three dogs, two older (15 and 16) and they were loved and well cared for while we were gone! Marta stayed at our house and it looked great when we returned! Feel blessed to have found them.”
“Joo watched my pups for me for a 3 day weekend. He came over often and stayed a good while. He took my girls on lots of walks and kept me updated with photos. My pups were really happy and I would book with Joo again!”
About: I've been a foster carer for various greyhound organizations here (ATX and DFW) and in Australia. I get the hounds that are cat safe and get them used to living with cats. I'm always fostering, which is why I cannot take in more dogs for sitting, but I can do pop-ins. Before I fostered greyhounds, I used to petsit for friends' parents. I love to scritch ears, make up stupid songs for them, and play on the floor. My current pack consists of two sighthound mixes and two middle-management cats. Am I Katy or Mary? Both. The joy of going by either the first name or the nickname. You can call me Katy. The IRS can keep calling me Mary ... and please, if you're from IRS, don't call me. I am currently working from home and would love the excuse to get out and walk or, when it's really too hot, engage in play in the backyard. I am mindful of the various personalities I could encounter. I understand that not all pets want to play. Some want to chill and know that you're there. Others need to get that energy out. When doing pop ins, I would be mindful of what their humans say.
“Natalie took excellent care of all my fur babies. She even sent photos of them while we were away and showed concern for my allergy ridden cat. I would recommend Natalie as a house sitter anytime. Thanks Natalie!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets. I’m a chiropractic student at Parker University and am responsible, patient, and attentive. I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m a full-time student at Parker University, usually finished with classes by 4 PM. I’m available most weekends and have some weekday availability, including Mondays when I only have one morning class. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine! I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, keep pets safe and comfortable, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, and love. I’ll also keep your home clean and treat it with the same respect I would my own.
About: Hi! I’m so glad to be able to care for your fur baby like it’s my own. I have years of experience caring for dogs & cats. I personally own two dogs & one cat! I know each animal is special to every family, and I want to be able to help in any way. I have a very flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I have cared for dogs all sizes, and understand each pet has their own personality. I enjoy taking the time out to help out, since I know how crazy ones day can get. I am very efficient and on time. I look forward to giving your fur baby all the love it deserves while you’re away. Thanks so much for the opportunity!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shiloh
Tug just loves Stephany. And she handles my 75 pound pitbull like a pro. He can be anxious when we go but is not anxious when she is here. And she loves him back - all things are good….clean house, respectful of our space but honestly, it is how she genuinely loves our dog that makes all the difference. Thank you
Amalia was incredible! Our dogs adore her and she took such great care of them AND our house. It was great to come home after a long day of travel and find our pups happy and our house in order! We received daily updates and pictures. We felt like our pups were in the best possible hands while we were gone. She will always be our first call when we go out of town! Thank you Molly!
Tian took wonderful care of Biscuit and was incredibly dependable. The power went out while I was away, and Tian handled the situation calmly, kept me updated, and made sure Biscuit was safe and comfortable. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in caring and capable hands. I would absolutely recommend Tian and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!
Tyler has watched our two Great Danes multiple times in our home and has always provided great service & communication. He gives informative periodic updates and gets the best pictures. We always return to happy dogs that are healthy and exercised and the house always looks well cared for. Definitely recommend!
Grayson responded to my request quickly he was very responsive and planned a visit quickly. It was so convenient to have him in my neighborhood, and his rate was a very good one (so appreciative). I appreciate Grayson's attention to detail in taking care of my fur baby and friend. I would definitely book Grayson again!
Jessica was wonderful! She was communicative, reliable, and made me feel completely at ease leaving my two dogs in her care. She kept me updated throughout their stay, and it was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter.
Cadence was a great pet/house sitter for us and our two dogs! She was quick to respond and communicated well when we were away. We are already planning to have her help out during our future trips! We highly recommend her to anyone searching for a responsible and reliable sitter!
I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!
Lina took care of my dog and cat for two weeks while I was away, and I’m very grateful for all her help. She was sweet, caring, communicative, and clearly gave my pets a lot of attention and love while I was gone. My dog can be a little anxious and high maintenance at times, and she was very patient with him throughout the stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing my babies were safe and cared for. Thank you again, Lina 😊
Janelle was absolutely amazing! She kept me consistently updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy Nyx struggles with separation anxiety, and Janelle handled it with so much care, patience, and understanding. It’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. She truly went above and beyond to make sure Nyx and my other dog Eros were comfortable and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Janelle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Shiloh is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $110 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,362 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 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 Shiloh. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
