About: I don’t just love dogs because they’re cute. I love them for who they are. Their loyalty, their innocence, their unconditional love, and the way they can make you feel loved without ever saying a single word. They don’t care what you look like, how much money you have, what kind of day you’ve had, or whether you have your life together. They just want to love you, be near you, and be part of your world. 🐾 I’m currently working full time, free during the week to be around dogs, care for them & be their extra love. I love all dogs ♥️ Fenced in yard, I have 2 dogs whom I love everyday of my life. They’ll always be a part of my life, everyday! My life is just about dogs
“Hannah has been great to watch our dog multiple times when we are out of town. She is reliable with good communication throughout the stay. We will continue to reach out to her!”
“Allison is by far the best dog, cat and house sitter we’ve ever had. She is extremely responsible, polite and professional. When we got home after our trip the house was all picked and everything in its place. I highly recommend her.”
About: I am currently a proud parent to two cat, so I’m very well versed in their play styles and respecting their boundaries. However I spent my childhood with a loving dog who recently passed away. Navigating his senior years taught me that care isn’t just about walks or treats but about patience, sometimes administering medication, and recognizing subtle cues of a senior pet that may need a little extra comfort. Whether your pet is a high energy pet or senior pet who needs a gentle hand, I provide intuitive, dedicated, and delicate care that I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student, but have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM-4:00 PM or 5:30 PM-10:00 PM. Thursday- Sunday I’m available anytime after 7:00 PM. Whatever your pets need, I have it covered and their safety is always my number one priority. From double checking that every gate is latched and every lease is secured/correctly on to closely monitoring your pets for any sign of discomfort, ill treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or navigating a high energy walk, I’m prepared for any situation!
“Had an emergency situation and needed someone immediately. Mackenzie came to my rescue! Thank you the boys had a great time. Definitely would recommend and planning on using her again.”

I am attentive, compassionate, and skilled at handling any health-related concerns that may arise. My own dog is currently in training to be a therapy dog, which speaks to my commitment and capability in training and managing pets. This experience has equipped me with advanced techniques to ensure your pets are well-behaved and happy. Personally training my dog has given me practical insights into pet behavior, discipline, and the importance of positive reinforcement. I bring this hands-on knowledge to every pet I care for, ensuring a loving and nurturing environment. By choosing me as your pet sitter, you can rest assured that your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and affection. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

With my dog as a companion, who enjoys the expansive outdoor space with me, we offer a dynamic and stimulating atmosphere for pets. Regular long leash walks are part of our routine, tailored to each pet's needs, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. You can trust that your pets will receive attentive care, plenty of outdoor time, and a loving environment that feels just like home.
About: Hello! My name is Daisy and I have been taking care of others' fur babies for years! I've watched animals from cats and dogs to chickens, bunnies, and mice. I grew up next door to an animal rescue in Central Indiana, and have loved animals ever since. I have experience with medically complex animals as well as seniors, so trust me when I say, I've seen it all :) I work a regular 9-5 during the week, and can come take care of pets any time after hours. If local, I am able to come during lunch to check in as well. I am also available on the weekends. I do not currently board animals at this time, but am able to house/pet sit. Loved ones are always played with, walked, and enriched with each visit, and litter boxes/ enclosures are checked every time. Food and water is always monitored closely and they are always ensured to be happy and enriched after every visit!
About: I’ve had animals my entire life, most of which was more than 3 dogs at a time! I’ve had everything from small 30 pound mutts to 120+pound mastiffs. I currently work from home and have 2 wonderful pittie pups, one of which is a tripod. I live in a quiet neighborhood in Plainfield perfect to host your fur baby while you’re away! I work from home and can stay in your home or host your fur babes at our house. I don’t have human kids, only fur kids! I have a fenced in yard and have 2 dogs of my own. I have a house that has plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable and safe.
“As always, Bandit was happy to see Tolu and that’s all I need to know that Tolu does a great job with him! I also appreciate the regular pics of our pup while we’re apart.”
About: To be quite honest, I find this service to be more of a joy than a job! I'm always available during the week because my work schedule is very flexible. l've enjoyed and cared for pets of all types over the years including cats, small and medium-sized dogs, bunnies, turtles and hamsters. I pride myself on being loving and attentive to all animals, especially when considered another beloved member of the family. Providing special care, like spending more active time outside or meeting dietary needs, is a given with me. There's never a need to worry about your pet but I'm happy to text updates regularly! I also have some experience watching over sick dogs and providing instructed care for nursing back to full health
“Kendall was amazing with our boy!! He is going blind so he was a little standoffish at first but she knew exactly how to handle his idiosyncrasies. She was very communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. She is amazing with animals!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,002 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stilesville. 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 Stilesville 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 Stilesville 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 Stilesville 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
