“Bobbi was great as a dog/house sitter. She was able to stay with my dog and keep her entertained, even over a holiday! She sent regular updates and photos and Nadia was clearly happy with her company!”

“Elizabeth was wonderful. Couldn’t ask for a better person to sit with our Blackie. Those two bonded beautifully. She kept the house pristine and did extra things like watering our plants. We plan on using her services again whenever we are planning on being away. We highly recommend Elizabeth!”


About: I’ve had 2-3 dogs in the house for the entirety of my life. I have dog/house sat for many people in my neighborhood and have always been a reliable helping hand. I’ve taken care of dogs that have strict diet and medication regimines, as well. I have experience with both big and little dogs. I’m a lover of all animals! I’m finishing up my last year of grad school and have recently moved back home to Mandeville! I currently work at St. Tammany Parish Hospital 4 days a week and have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends! I can make sure to conform to any house rules you may have in place for me and for your pups. I can easily crate your pet, if needed. I am very attentive and full of energy to play with or take your pups for walks.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Before getting a dog of my own, I spent a year working with a pet sitting company, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and care needs. Now, my dog Miller is my whole world, and I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just extra love and attention, I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I currently have another job however your pets are still my priority. I think we can definitely work something out to make sure your pets get the care they need. My dog Miller is a huge part of my life, and I take his care seriously, from regular exercise and attention to making homemade meals to keep him healthy and happy. I also travel often for work, and Miller comes with me whenever possible, so I understand the importance of routine, companionship, and making pets feel included and comfortable no matter the environment. I treat every pet like family and always go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home.
“Lauren was great! My dogs don’t like staying at boarding and having them be able to stay at home where they’re comfortable and know there was someone taking care of them made me much less stressed while I was out of town”

“Jennifer was great with my furbabies! With this being the first time leaving them ever, I was a nervous Furman, but Jen made it easier. She sent pics and communicated everyday, and I really appreciated the updates. Will use her the next time I have to take a trip.”


About: I love dogs so I am able to give them proper care with ease. Your dog will be fed, safe, and happy with me. I am home full time. I am qualified in giving medications as I am an LPN currently at home between travel assignments. I am active and will play with and walk your baby daily. I am also very exact with following the instructions you leave for your doggo. My customers love that I send pictures at the end of everyday your dog is with me along with an update on how everything went. I have a passion for providing care whether it’s to humans or your pet 🥰. I can keep, bottle feed, and administer shots or any other meds you have. While I love cats too I prefer not to service them specifically. I will care for hamsters, Guinea pigs, fish, ferrets, and rabbits ! I hope to meet your fur babes soon! With love, Kiara I am a Licensed Practical Nurse currently off from a travel assignment. I’m at home all day tending to the pets I keep. My dog of 10 beautiful years passed away recently and I enjoy spending time with animals as I am not ready for another pet of my own just yet. I have no pets of my own so your baby will be the center of attention 😍. More one on one love, they won’t even notice you’re away. My Apartment complex also features a large gated dog park for some outside fun
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many breeds and sizes since I was 12, and have always had satisfied clients with no issues ever. I have worked in many different settings caring for animals including dogs, cats, horses, and goats. I have been volunteering at animal shelters and dog rescues for over 6 years, and I thoroughly enjoy my time with the animals there. I have open availability for the foreseeable future, so please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime. I am also very flexible with days and times! I am very cautious and protective when it comes to ensuring your pets’ safety and keeping them happy and healthy is my number one priority no matter what the circumstances are.

“Jennifer was excellent! Our Stella is deaf and we treat her like our child. Jennifer went above and beyond with update texts, pictures and provided us such peace of mind. We will definitely be using Jennifer in the future!”

About: I believe I’m an excellent pet sitter because animals have been a huge part of my life from the very beginning. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I’ve personally bottle fed kittens, puppies, and baby goats, giving me hands on experience with pets that need extra attention and care. I also attended veterinary classes through LSU’s agricultural program, where I learned valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, and proper care. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a comforting presence, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I currently work in Healthcare at North Oaks Hospital. I take care of my pet daily, as I would yours once we figure out which days i’m need to care for your baby! Creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet is my top priority. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention while following their normal routines as closely as possible. I carefully monitor their behavior, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and ensure all doors, gates, and leashes are secure. By providing a calm, loving atmosphere and paying close attention to each pet’s individual needs, I help them feel safe, happy, and stress free while their owners are away.
About: Hey there! My name is Kylah and I am an absolute animal lover, especially dogs and cats! Having a dog of my own is so rewarding with all of the love I receive every single day. I am a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to give your animal the attention they need! If your animals cannot be around kids please disclose this, as I may need to make arrangements for my child. I have had years of pet care experience, not only with my own animals, but others also. I have cared for animals of all ages. I have provided care for dogs with special medication needs. I will give you animal lots of play time with the love and care that you would give. You should know that when your dog is with me that they will be receiving excellent care. Please book for your pet care needs! I am currently a stay at home mom so my schedule is just based around nap times and meals. Other than that, I am extremely flexible. I have reliable transportation to visit your home. We can discuss your animals needs and I can very easily adapt to what is needed to best care for your baby!
“5+ stars. Alyssa recently stayed with our very nervous and energetic pitbull mix while we were on a long vacation. She stayed in our home. She was extremely considerate of our things and assisted with getting the mail, etc while taking excellent care of our girl. Her communication was great and she sent frequent pictures and updates. I felt very comfortable and reassured that my dog was being loved and cared for well. I look forward to using her again; could not recommend enough!”

About: Ever since I was Itty bitty I have always adored animals. I was the kid bringing home strays every chance I got to make sure they found a loving home. In high-school I interned at a vet. This gave me knowledge and experience walking, feeding, administering medication, and understanding the behaviors of the animals around me. I am now an Army veteran and will be a full time student come the fall semester. This gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your precious babies the highest quality care so you can feel confident and secure that all of their needs are being met while youre away. I have 1 dog and 5 cats of my own all with their own quirks, personalities, and detailed instructions I give to my own sitters when needed. Rest assured that there is not much your pets could need that I am not up for! I am moving from out of state and starting school in the fall, so during the summer I will have complete availability while settling into our new home! Due to having so many cats, I will not be offering boarding/sitting in my own home. However for house sitting, walking, and drop ins I am happy to follow any and all detailed instructions and will send plenty of photos for your peace of mind!
“Olivia was fantastic! So grateful she was available last minute when I had car troubles coming home from a trip. She was communicative and followed all instructions. Would definitely have her back!”

“Danielle was great taking care of my Labrador and my mother’s Corgi. She communicated with us and made us feel totally comfortable having her in my home. I would definitely use her again.”


About: I’ve been a vegetarian almost half my life, loving animals since I was born! Elderly, small, or big I’ve taken care of many animals my whole life. In fact I almost went to school to be a vet tech… I’ve had bunny’s, birds, dogs, cats &kittens, hamsters, snails, frogs, lizards, and more. My soul mate dog passed at 19. She chose me when I was 5. I’ve never grieved more than loosing her.. with that I can say I’m very experienced in elderly dog care. I’m currently a stay at home mom, I am very available! My 19 month old baby naps at 10, and is up around 12:30 but we’re easy and times can always be rearranged depending on what your family needs! (Yes we see animals as our family members in our home) I have a fenced yard, and a pool. I have two cats, one is in/ outdoor.. and one that stays inside they’re both very mellow and depending on what you need maybe a sweet friend can sleep over or have a play date! I have a 11 year old daughter and a 19 month old daughter, they adore animals as much as me!!
About: I’ve had my family dog, Princess, a Pomeranian-Papillon mix, since I was four years old. I was the one who named her, and she’s been my best friend ever since. I’ve cared for her through every stage of her life, from a playful puppy to now as a senior dog, so I understand that pets have different needs as they get older. Senior pets have a special place in my heart, and I’m always happy to give them the extra patience and love they deserve. I’m a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I usually only take one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so they’ll get lots of one-on-one care and won’t have to compete for attention. I’ll stick to your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, and I ask that owners provide their pet’s food, medications (if needed), favorite toys, and any other essentials. If I’m caring for a cat, I’ll also need their litter box, litter, and other supplies. Communication is really important to me. I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates, and if you’re missing your pet, I’m even happy to FaceTime so you can check in. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart. I’m currently a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get lots of attention throughout the day. I usually only care for one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so I can focus on giving them the care and attention they deserve while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I share my home with my senior dog, Princess. She’s older, independent, and usually keeps to herself, but I’ll always make thoughtful introductions and make sure everyone is comfortable. I only accept one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so I can give them my full attention and closely monitor their interactions. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’ll keep your home tidy if I’m caring for your pet there, and I’ll always make sure water is fresh, the environment is clean, and your pet feels safe and comfortable. If I ever notice anything unusual, I’ll let you know right away so you can have peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lacombe
I was so hesitant to leave my precious dog knowing he was not well. My caregiver, Bobbi, was amazing. She took him to his treatments, watched over him so carefully and gave him all his medications. I don't think he would have stayed alive being boarded up in a cage for nine days. I would definitely hire Bobbi again in a heartbeat. I felt assured on my trip that he was taken care of as best she could. Thank you again, Bobbi, for being there for my precious baby!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lacombe
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lacombe on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 817 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lacombe. 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 Lacombe 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 Lacombe 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 Lacombe 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.
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.
