“This is the 3rd time we've used Lori to watch our pup, Marshall. It is so nice to be able to escape on a vacation and know that our baby will be taken care of and loved. Lori stayed at our place again and everything was in order when we returned. She even washed our sheets on the bed! She is such an incredible person, so kind and kept us updated via Rover every day. 10/10 recommend Lori to care for your pet! Thank you Lori!! <3”
“She was absolutely fantastic. We were out of town for longer than we've been before, but we felt completely comfortable and knew our pets were happy and healthy.”
“Sarah is amazing! She stayed with my fur babies for 3 days. I never once worried. She sent alot of pics and updates. She is our new person to call when we need help!”
“Great communication! ReAna took excellent care of my cat and my place and sent pictures each visit. I really appreciate the check-ins. Would definitely recommend ReAna to anyone as a cat sitter!”
“Bryeanna provided excellent care for our 2 dogs in our home. She provided daily updates and was mindful of the extra attention our golden doodle needs as he can very quickly get into things! We will not hesitate to rebook with her in the future!”
About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs my whole life. I feed, water, and play with them anywhere I go. Animals are my life! I work part time, but I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m completely free on the weekends. Weekdays I’m available after 4. I am always watching the animal and keeping them lots of company. Whether it is playing at the house or taking them to the park!
“I really can't explain the peace of mind we had with Sauddi staying at our house and watching our 3 cats and 2 dogs! She met our critters a couple of days before and you could tell that she has a unique love for animals. Gave updates and pics as well to make sure we got to see them while away. HIGHLY recommended and we will definitely be hiring her the next time we are out of town!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and I currently have one cat and 11 guinea pigs. I take care of my moms dogs all the time. I'm free all day. I'm an independent contractor so I have all the free time every day all day. I can come by anytime of the day. I will take the utmost care of your pet and will do everything I can to make them feel safe. I love being around animals.
“We had a wonderful experience with Marisa as our cat and house sitter. She took excellent care of our home and left everything clean and well cared for. When Kitty broke a potted plant, she let us know right away and cleaned it up with no fuss at all, which we really appreciated. Our cat was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after when we returned, and we loved receiving so many photos and updates while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing our home and cat were in such capable, thoughtful hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Katie stayed with our 2 boys without a lot of notice, everything went very smoothly. Our big guy had been having a lot of tummy/health issues recently and she was really good about adjusting diet to try to get him to eat some. Would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
“Anna was fantastic! She was very responsive, gave us daily updates (& pictures 🥰) and made us feel so comfortable that our dog was well taken care of and happy while we were gone. Would absolutely book with Anna whenever we go out of town next! Really appreciate everything.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it’s been a long one!! I’ve also had cats! I believe any animal is a family member and I also believe they understand us as their ‘humans’. I will take care of your animals as my own, which is spoiled! Currently I work part time and have time to dedicate to your pets. I will have more time soon as I’m going to retire!! I will provide quality care and time to your pet(s). I will watch and care for your pet as my own. I have one dog, poodle mix and she is very spoiled! Your pet will live like her with walks, treats, sleeping on the bed, laying on the couches, and getting tons of pets!!
About: I have volunteered at One of a Kind Pet Rescue where I cared for and gained experience with all different kinds of dogs and cats, and I have also owned a senior dog and have raised 2 puppies and a kitten! I am currently a college student working part time so I will have time on my hands to care for your pets! I am available weekdays from 9AM-2PM and weekends! I prioritize safety, trust, and environment by keeping pets in their familiar home and following exact instructions given to me to maintain your pups routine, reduce stress, and provide attentive companionship.
“Samantha is absolutely AMAZING!!! Our 14 year old girl, Furby recently lost her two sisters so this was the first time she has been an only child and we didn’t want to leave her too long by herself. So thankfully we found Samantha. Samantha is so sweet and kind and Furby absolutely Loves her! Furby warmed up to Samantha immediately. Thank you for taking such good care of Furby for us, you helped put our mind at ease. And the pictures you sent while we were away made us so happy. Will continue to have you hangout with our Furby girl!!!”
About: Just arrived in northeast Ohio for graduate school starting fall 26. Let me walk your dog for you. Cat sitting too. Jesey is open for business throughout the 26/27 School year! Proud roommate to the most perfect kitty ever created, friend of all things furry (or furless), and middle school music teacher. For over 10 years I have been taking care of delicate cats, big Australian shepherds, hyper Siberian husky puppies, grumpy felines, potbelly pigs, and everything in between. In the past I have slept over at a client's house to ensure that the little buddy gets let out, fed, etc. whenever they need to. I feel comfortable taking dogs out for evening/night walks, if your pet is a night owl. I love playing at the park or in the backyard, so let me hang out with your pet! I have worked with pets with allergies, dietary restrictions, and other various conditions. I have given cats and dogs their medicine in many different forms,(pills, oral liquid, injection, etc.) and am comfortable doing so. I'm working part time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your beasts. Typically visit in the morning before 11am, and after 6pm for the evening. I care for everyone's pet like my own. Fresh water, food, litter, and lots of love every visit. skreet skreet pow skreet CRASH plop whoosh

FAQs for House Sitting - Tallmadge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tallmadge on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,096 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tallmadge. 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 Tallmadge 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 Tallmadge 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 Tallmadge 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.

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.
