About: I have over six years of veterinary assistant experience. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different sizes, ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable with large dogs and pets who need a little extra patience. My veterinary background has taught me to pay close attention to pets behavior, comfort and needs. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish. I have a flexible schedule right now, so I have time for walks, playtime, or just relaxing with your pets and keeping them company. Caring for my own pet is already part of my daily life and I’ll bring that safe attention and care to yours. As of right now I’m just offering walks, going to clients homes, no overnights at this time unless told otherwise. I’ll respect your home, watch for any changes in your pet’s behavior and keep you updated during my visits.
About: I have ample experience caring for other families dogs, as well as my own three who have now passed. I have been a trusted caregiver for pets for over 10 years, including overnight stays and drop-ins. I will care for your dog/cat as if they are my own family’s pets. I am currently working remotel after graduating College, so pet-sitting fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a fully open schedule, and am ready to care for your sweet fur babies!

Last time I asked a friend and I didn’t feel the care that Lipika had. Thank you for great people like her and I will book again for my upcoming trip in June and September!”

I try to honor any established schedule your pets might have and try to enhance their activities to distract them from your absence whether that be from long days at work or even an out of town trip.
About: Hi, fellow dog lovers! 🐾 I was a proud dog parent for 13 wonderful years, and although my pups have since crossed the rainbow bridge, the love I have for dogs hasn’t gone anywhere. Caring for other people’s furry family members has become a special way for me to fill that little void they’ve left behind and share all the love I still have to give. I have tons of experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, especially larger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit Bulls. I also have a soft spot for senior pups and understand the extra patience and attention they need, including administering medications and keeping up with their daily routines. I’m naturally active and love spending time outdoors, whether that’s a neighborhood stroll, a long walk, or a hike for pups who enjoy a little adventure. I also have a spacious backyard and a dedicated dog run, so there’s plenty of room for fresh air, playtime, and exploring! Having been a dog parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care. My goal is to make sure you feel completely comfortable knowing your pup is safe, happy, and loved. I’ll treat them with the same patience, affection, and attention I gave my own. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member and give them a little extra love! ❤️ Your pup will get plenty of love, attention, and activity during their stay! I’m home throughout the day, so they’ll have lots of company and won’t be left alone for long stretches. We’ll enjoy multiple walks throughout the day, plenty of playtime, and lots of opportunities to relax and hang out together. For pups who are up for a little adventure, I love heading out for hikes or trips to the park! I know every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine, so I’m happy to tailor our days to what makes them happiest. Whether they’re an energetic pup who loves exploring or a senior who prefers leisurely strolls and afternoon naps, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. 🐾 Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I have a fully fenced backyard along with a separate fenced-in dog run, giving your furry friend plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy some fresh air in a secure environment. My home is very dog-friendly! Pups are welcome to snuggle up on the couch or make themselves comfortable on the bed. That said, I know consistency is important, so if your dog isn’t allowed on furniture at home, I’ll happily respect those same rules during their stay. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention. I also understand that every dog has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. Whether that means sticking to a specific feeding schedule, administering medications, or providing a quiet place to relax, I’m happy to accommodate. I’ll always prioritize their well-being, follow your instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away!
“Haylee was great with our doggos! Showed up on time and was able to feed and play with our dogs during her visit. She takes her time with them and gives them a lot of love and attention.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 5 years, in addition to training multiple puppies (2 of my own), and learning alongside them.

Onboarding is available whenever needed seeing as I’m home throughout the afternoon and night every single day. I have a large fenced backyard, large neighborhood with colds sack great for dog walking, and ample amount of space inside space with air conditioning, to meet all your dogs needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hawthorne
We had a wonderful experience with Lipika! She was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive while taking care of our dog, EJ. She stopped by a couple of times to check on him and made sure he was well taken care of. From the looks of it, EJ had an amazing time, especially during their walks together! It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We truly appreciate Lipika’s care and dedication, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter. Thank you again, Lipika! We look forward to booking with you again!
Our cat loves Aileen! She always gets the biggest meows when she comes over. It makes us happy to know he looks forward to seeing her. My cat is particular with food and she delivers it in his special way, which also makes us relieved that he’s eating while we’re gone. Thanks Aileen!
Christine was wonderful to work with and did an awesome job caring for my dog Jones. She is responsive, tried to accommodate shifts in the schedule if they happened, and her report cards and pictures made me feel like my dog was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Christine to anyone looking for some help with their furry friends!
Lindsey is the best! She is always available, reliable, and great with communication. She was able to take care of my cat when I missed my flight and offered to see her more often than I requested as a wedding gift 💝 truly a gem !! She will go above and beyond for your fur baby. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hawthorne is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $34 per visit. 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 19,664 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hawthorne. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hawthorne. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
