“Kami was great. My dogs looked so happy with her. She stayed at my house and I felt so comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She even put our trash out on trash day! Highly recommend!!”


“Kendall did an excellent job watching our pets (two dogs and a cat) for a week. She would go outside with our dogs multiple times a day, and kept everyone fed and entertained, which is no small task with our high maintenance, routine oriented cat. We came back to three happy, healthy pets thanks to Kendall. Would definitely book with Kendall again.”
“First time with Taylor for an overnight house and dog sitting. Taylor had great communication, and excellent care of my two pups! She contacted me promptly when she had a question about giving meds to one of my dogs. I came home to happy beasts, and that's the best.”
“Sarah was awesome! The animals were well taken care of, she was punctual, communicated very well and we felt very at ease. We’re new in town and it’s always difficult finding someone trustworthy, but we’re so happy to have found Sarah. 10/10 recommend!”
“Elisha did a great job during her stay with our dog Molly. She is a caring and calm person, which is ideal for this. She kept in touch about things, and I felt that she was in good hands with Elisha.”

About: I’ve grown up with two dogs, both are doodle mixes and one is a smaller dog and the other is a big dog so they have helped me learn how to care for dogs. Throughout my life as a teenager I’ve been tasked with basic dog watching duties here and there with a range of breeds, mostly doodle mixes with small and big dogs. Over this past year I’ve had more frequent dog watching jobs, mainly just check in visits with dogs while the owner is out of town or just busy in general. Recently, I had my biggest task which was watching 7 dogs for a week straight while staying overnight. With this task I had to provide medication for some of the dogs, feed every dog, take them outside frequently, and just basic caring duties for every dog. The sizes of dogs I had to watch were from very small to very big dogs. The breeds of dogs there were two Pitbulls, a French bulldog, two small doodle mixes, and two small Shih Tzus. Currently I’m a Sophomore at Bowling Green State University studying Accounting and I’ll also have a part-time job while I’m in school. So I should have plenty of time to care for dogs. Starting August 25th on Tuesdays and Thursdays I’ll be available anytime after 3:00 pm, and for Mondays and Wednesday’s anytime after 4:00pm works for me. For Fridays between 4-9 pm I’m available. Finally for Saturdays and Sundays anytime before 9:00 pm I am available to care. My dogs at home are very friendly and easy to care for. I help with feeding, walking, playing, and bathing. For any client I’ll be able to provide those services as well, and also other things such as providing medicine for any clients pets.
About: I'm the proud owner of two orange feline dictators and have extensive experience watching and caring for dogs and cats. I am allergic to birds however, so please let me know if there is a feathered friend in your home. I am currently working part-time and able to assist in helping care for your beloved pet! I am able to assist during the day and evening. I am unable to care for pets inside my personal home, but I am attentive and openly communicate with pet owners to ensure a smooth and safe process while caring for your pet in your home.
“Angeline was amazing! From taking notes during our pre-departure meeting to all the updates and photos while we were gone, Angeline was amazing to work with. Angeline had great communication and was super easy to work with. We will definitely keep Angeline in mind for the future.”


About: Friends & family often have me pet sit for them. I love both dogs & cats but have two cats of my own! My oldest cat is 16 years old and I take his health & care very seriously and willing to help others! For this summer I am working full time at a daycare Monday-Friday. I am open to checking in on your animals before I go to work at 8:30, if needed checking up on them during my break that is at 1, and I usually am off of work around 4:30. On the weekends I am a bartender & I work the hours of 9PM-2AM. Usually, if I am dog sitting I make sure they have had good enough time playing and they are taken care of before I go to work and if I am housesitting I come back right after I am done. This leaves me with the entire day to take care of your animals! I take care of kids for a living so I’m used to the demands of parents & these pets are your babies! Any special requests or anything that you would want me to do just communicate with me & I’m pretty easygoing. I will take care of your pets like they’re my own :)
About: I've had pets of my own all my life as well as cared for others pets from my teen years to now. Now I do this full time. This is my job. It's what I do full time. All hours. I have a husband and 3 girls but now they're older and I can follow my dreams and can include them at times to play with pets. I will give your pet/s the love and care they deserve as well as listening to your instructions. Currently I only do pets sitting in my clients homes but we're expanding!
“Trystine did great. I'd never had a house sitter before and the one I had booked previously ghosted 2 weeks before the booking, but Trystine stepped in and saved the day. Responsive to messages and respectful of your wishes and boundaries. My dog is shy and she gave him the patience he needed to adjust to her. Thank you.”

“Jennifer was great with our little guy. We got multiple updates each day as requested and our puppy was happy and healthy when we got home which is all we could ask for as neurotic dog parents:)”
“Mark was amazing from the day he came over to meet us and our dogs until we returned from vacation. He made sure our dogs were comfortable due to their age. He also Made sure the stayed very close to their daily routine. Mark sent pictures and videos to insure us that they were receiving the best care, and they were! We highly recommend Mark and will definitely use him again. Kevin T.”

“Hallejia was an amazing dog sitter. She and Willow got along great. I attribute that to her coming and meeting Willow ahead of time and taking her time to get to know her. Hallejia is very attentive, caring and kind. I loved her the moment I met her which made me feel comfortable leaving Willow. She familiarized herself with Willow’s routine and habits. And Halleija is so flexible. I had to change some things at the last minute and she was so accommodating. I will definitely be reaching out to her again to sit for Willow!”


About: I have recent hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments in professional settings. I also have a lifetime of experience as a dog and cat owner and lover! As a doggy daycare employee, I've safely managed groups of dogs in daycare, supervised structured play, monitored body language to prevent conflicts, and provided individualized care based on each dog's needs and personality. I also work as a dog handler for a professional goose management company, where I handle border collies in outdoor environments while maintaining focus, safety, and reliable leash skills around wildlife, distractions, and changing conditions. This work has strengthened my confidence handling energetic working dogs in public spaces. My experience includes: - Supervising group play and monitoring canine body language - Individual walks and exercise - Feeding, fresh water, and medication support with instructions - Cleaning kennels and maintaining a safe, sanitary environment - Crate rotations and rest breaks - Reinforcing good manners with positive interactions - Caring for puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy breeds I love every dog like it is my own and am ready to take care of your loved one when needed! My schedule is generally very flexible! I do have a few shorter recurring commitments during the weekdays, but I have availability before and after them, as well as on evenings and weekends. If you're looking for care on a specific day or time, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to work with you to find something that fits both of our schedules whenever possible. I always try to keep pets on the routine they're most comfortable with. Whether I'm in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or drop-in visit, I'll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special needs or preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. My professional experience in dog daycare has taught me to pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and individual personalities. Some dogs want to play nonstop, while others just want a calm companion and a good walk. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection while also keeping safety my top priority. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tontogany on Rover is $54.11 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 303 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tontogany. 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 Tontogany 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 Tontogany 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 Tontogany 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.
