Meagan did a great job pet sitting in our home over the Christmas holiday! We were very happy with how well she cared for our two dogs and how promptly she communicated with me. She was very good about replying to my texts or phone calls and she sent us updates and photos of our pets. She also left our home exactly how we left it. It was great to be able to leave town and know our dogs were safe and happy in the comfort of their own home. We would definitly use her again in the future!

Edileny was great with our pets. She provided daily updates and pictures and made our babies feel very comfortable. They were very happy with her and I'm glad she was able to make them feel at ease. She followed special instructions for each pet and was able to administer medications when needed. I would trust Edileny to take care of my babies again.

Develyn was great! She took a good amount of time before the booking to get to know my dogs and allow them to adjust to her while I was there, which helped me feel comfortable leaving my pups in her care! She kept me updated throughout her stay on how the dogs were and sent pictures throughout! She also left the house cleaner than when she arrived which was so nice to come home to! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter (both home and pups)!!!

About: I’ve always have had pet dogs since childhood. Each with a different personality and adapted to them. To know when it’s playtime to knowing when it’s their nap time. I’m currently working part time but most likely to catch me weekday mornings. Even so shoot me a message and I can always try to accommodate you into my schedule. I don’t have a home to accommodate your pet but I do have a park close to my living area where me and your pet will be enjoying our long walks together.

About: Growing up, I had almost every kind of pet you could imagine, but dogs were always a constant. My first best friend was a chihuahua mix named Princess. I cared for her until she crossed the rainbow bridge at the age of 12. I’m currently looking for full time employment, but in the mean time, I’m spending a lot of time at home! So I have lots of flexibility in regards to scheduling. I live in a house with a yard and currently do not have any pets (let me love yours!!!) There are a few parks around my place if walks are required, or plenty of yard space to explore on a leash.

About: Hello!!! I love animals I’ve had cats and dogs growing up my whole life so I’m pretty familiar with their care! I know how frustrating it is having to ask someone u know to put a stop in their day to help u out but sometimes it’s better to stress free and just hire someone who will devote their time to ur loved ones 💝💝 Im pretty much free availability for right now due to being laid off so anything can work, for the time being. As per overnight stays or just checking in during the day I would love to make sure their bathroom areas are clean and well kept, their food and water always being fresh and making sure nothing is out of the ordinary

We truly couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter! From day one, Amanda has been incredibly trustworthy, reliable, and caring. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing Chiko was in such loving and capable hands. Communication is outstanding! I always received regular updates, photos, and thoughtful messages that reassured us everything was going great. Amanda is also very flexible and accommodating, which makes scheduling so much easier! It’s clear she genuinely cares, and our Chiko absolutely adored her. We feel so lucky to have found someone this dependable and kind.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lago

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 97 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lago. 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 Lago 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 Lago 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 Lago 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
