About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has multiple years of care experience. I have a puppy so I am aware of the special care needs they may have. I also specialize in cats. I am flexible when it comes to cancellations and care times. I work second shift so I am able to provide care in the mornings or late at night. Late night care does not bother me, as I am a night owl! I am able to board, however I would prefer cats or small dogs. In my spare time I love to exercise, so I would love to take your pup on a long walk! I love animals, so rest assured your friend will be in loving, caring hands when you are away! I work overnights, so I am able to provide care in the mornings, during the day, and in evenings. I am flexible when I need to be! I reside in an apartment and have a large, unfenced yard. Perfect for supervised playtime! I have 2 friendly cats that would love to keep your pet company.
“James is the most amazing pet sitter/house sitter! From the moment he came to meet our pets, we could tell he’s a true animal lover and genuinely good person. He had great communication, a fun sense of humor, and loves what he does. I couldn’t be happier with our experience.”
“Halle took such great of our dogs! She kept in touch with texts and photos multiple times a day. My husband and I felt so relaxed knowing our doggos were well taken care of. When we got home the dogs looked great and were so happy to see us; we knew we left them in good hands ( no cold shoulder).”

“Emma went above and beyond to take good care of my pets while we were away for a week. The house was clean and the dogs were happy. She sent plenty of photo updates too! I will for sure use her in the future as the need arises.”
About: Hello my name is Alexis I’m 18 years old and I have 3 years of pet sitting experience. I took a break for a short period of time and now I’m wanting to get back to pet sitting because I enjoy it and I want to get back to doing something that I really enjoy doing. Anyone need a pet sitter message me thank you guys so much. I would appreciate anyone who would allow me to pet sit for you. Message me for information if anyone is interested in allowing me to do some pet sitting for you while you go do important things like doctors appointments,eye appointments,Surgery...etc. I’m available whenever I just sit at home and look for things to do ! ! I’m currently waiting to go back to work and I’m just looking for a side job till I can get back to work. I’m available whenever on weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have toys for your dog to play with as well.
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was little. I've always loved dogs of all ages, breeds, and abilities. I have my own Mini Goldendoodle sister named Harley! We got her when she was just 6 weeks old and she's now 5 years old living her best life :) I especially love taking Harley for walks as it helps me to get my own exercise. I make sure to play with her often and give her lots of cuddles. Anything to make sure she feels safe, loved, and healthy! I am a young professional working a full-time remote job in Higher Education. I typically work 8:30-5pm Monday through Thursday and 11:30-8pm on Fridays. Weekday nights and weekends I'm usually available! I keep Harley on a leash when she's in the backyard and on a leash during walks. We mostly only feed her dog food with the occasional fruit, vegetable, or treat after research. She sleeps in her crate at night and she stays in her crate when no one is home. Depending on the care you need, I would treat your furry friends the same as my own with the same safety cautions and care.
About: I have a ton of experience with animals in the past. My family used to own a bulldog business, where I helped take care of their dogs, and give them unconditional love. Now I have 3 dogs of my own. Dogs are absolutely my favorite animal, I am a great pet-sitter because I love all animals, and we always become the best of friends. I just graduated from Kent State University with my BA in American Sign Language. I am deaf, and I know ASL, fluent English, and I have great communication skills with all types of people. Please feel free to ask if you would like to know anything else about me! Juggling my studies, family, and my Papillons is quite the routine, but it’s all part of the day’s work. Morning cuddles and care for my dogs amidst the family hustle set a positive vibe for the day. It’s a busy life, but caring for my dogs blends seamlessly into it, filled with love and joy. They’re more than pets; they’re family. Caring for pets involves understanding their specific needs and routines, whether it’s in my home or a client's. This means regular feeding, exercise, and affection, plus any special care required for their health or breed, like my Papillons. It’s all about ensuring they're happy, healthy, and well-adjusted.
About: I can show that I am committed to providing the best care for each pet by taking the time to get to know them. I am responsible. I can demonstrate experience by noting the breeds of animals you've cared for, any behavior challenges. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I am passionate about caring for animals. I am able to plan my schedule around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide consistent, loving care while keeping pet parents updated.🐾 I provide loving, reliable care for every pet as if they were my own. Depending on the service, I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure they have fresh water and a clean, safe environment. I am experienced with dogs and always pay close attention to their individual needs, personality, and comfort. I will also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel comfortable knowing their pet is being well cared for.🐾
“Megan and Jeremiah were great. It was only one night, but they took great care of my foster dog, Zoey. They left my house prsotiem and even took out my garbage! They were both very friendly and kind.”
“Maura was very responsive when I reached out to schedule with her! We got the meet and greet set up that same day for within a week and then she was able to watch my guys within two weeks! During the meet and greet, she asked plenty of questions and it made myself and my fiance feel comfortable leaving our animals in her care as she seemed very on top of it! She was also very nice and listened to all of our instructions! Maura stayed over for the weekend and sent picture updates every day. The boys looked comfortable and like they were enjoying themselves! Once arriving home, the house was clean and tidy! No complaints here! Glad we went with her and will definitely be rebooking with her again!”
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have taken care of them for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, from relaxed older dogs to high energy breeds that need a lot of exercise. I also have experience helping dogs recovering from injuries. I’ve worked patiently with dogs that needed extra care and attention, including helping a French bulldog regain strength and learn how to walk again. That experience taught me how to be attentive, patient, and adapt to each dog’s specific needs. I stay active and workout regularly, so I’m more than capable of handling longer walks and keeping up with energetic dogs. I take safety seriously and always make sure dogs are secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I’m reliable, show up on time, and communicate clearly so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to make sure your dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while giving you peace of mind. I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to consistently fit pet care into my routine. I manage my time well and stay active so I’m able to take on daily walks, drop-ins and sitting throughout the week. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and keep my schedule organized to ensure I’m always on time and able to give each dog my full attention. I prioritize safety and consistency in every visit. I always follow the owners instructions closely, whether that’s feeding, medications, or specific routines, and I make sure pets are secure at all times on walks and in the home. I pay attention to each dog’s behavior and energy level to keep them comfortable and avoid any risks. I respect my client’s homes, keep everything clean, and communicate clearly with updates so you always know your pet is in good hands.
About: I have had multiple pets growing up and my love for them has grown as an adult. I have volunteered in a shelter and have taken care of pets of all sizes. All requests on how you'd like me to care for your fur babies are welcome. I live a minute away from a park and have a pet clinic up the street. My goal is to provide comfort for your pets and peace of mind knowing they will be loved and taken care of😊 I have a very flexible schedule since I work part-time and do college online. I have my own dog who I care for full-time. I am able to get multiple walks in for your pet or spend my time indoors with them if they are older. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog. I have a crate available if needed. I am comfortable with giving medication and can handle stronger dogs. Your pet can sleep wherever they choose.
“Our high energy dog Costello had a great time with Tabbi! He warmed up to her right away and when we left on vacation, they were snuggling on the couch :). Tabbi kept us informed about what she and Costello did during the day. I would highly recommend Tabbi as someone responsible and caring to care for your dog.”
“Can’t recommend Avarie enough! She is a very thoughtful and kind dog lover. Avarie stayed in our home and left it in perfect condition. She took excellent care of our dog. Avarie went out of her way to calm our apprehensions about leaving our 6 yr old dog by coming by a few times beforehand to make sure he knew her. She was just what we hoped she would be with our dog!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I've cared for pets for years, helping with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays. I love going on walks and enjoy a good amount of play time. Whether it’s a high energy dog or a senior, I adjust my care to fit their personality. I have a relaxed work from home environment that allows me the flexibility to attend and care for your pet. There will be no lack of attention when they're in my care. I allow dogs the freedom to roam my home and yard as long as they're well mannered. If not, then I have a gated and fenced area for them to roam in.

The average cost of House Sitting in Lagrange is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $78 per night.

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 Lagrange 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 Lagrange 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 Lagrange 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lagrange. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
