“The dogs loved her. Pinchie had not slept with me in over a week but she slept with Stephanie. That is a good sign that Pinchie felt comfortable with her. She kept me informed of how things were going, took them for a walk and received compliments from my neighbors who met her. I feel comfortable leaving my dogs with her in the future.”
“Kristina was an absolute rockstar with our fur babies!! 💜 I can't believe it was only her first visit, and she bonded so well with them😍. She's an absolute natural with animals, and a sweetheart. I wholeheartedly recommend her to everyone who wants the top level of care for their pets!!”
“We all love Curtis and highly recommend! He was so wonderful with our little fur babies. He so tentative with them and his communication helped keep us at ease. We WILL be using him much more in the future, not just for our long trips but also for our day trips too. Thank you again Curtis for caring for Happy and Leia like they were your own. See you again soon!”
About: Taking care of fur babies has been a passion of mine since a very young age. I used to pretend to be the neighborhood dog trainer at the age of like 7! I’m no dog trainer, but I’m definitely able to love and care for your fur babies like they deserve. I can’t offer 24/7 care as I work a full time job, however the hours are pretty flexible. I’m typically off Wednesday and Thursday so I’m available anytime. Friday-Tuesday it varies but I’m typically available in the morning to 4pm :) I have 3 cats who I love very much. I’m a great communicator and will keep in contact and provide pictures through out the experience. If your pet is happy, then I am too!
“Highly recommend Shawnee. Great communication and attention to detail. Shawnee scheduled a meet and greet, where she took tons of wonderful notes and got to know the boys. While watching the dogs she provided the perfect amount of updates and photos. Appreciate all her hard work ☺️”
“Kathy kept our 2 dogs for the day during our visit to LEGOLAND. She is a very nice person and her house is so warming. She is obviously an experienced dog keeper. Sent us pics during the day of the dogs which was very appreciated. We spent our day with no stress. Thank you !”
“Kayla has taken care of our fur kids several times and we could not be happier! During her most recent stay, one of our pups became ill and she was extremely prompt in letting us know and did not hesitate to take him to the vet. We have older dogs that are pretty high maintenance and she always does an amazing job!”
“Shannon was amazing with my dogs! She followed all my instructions and sends many updates which I appreciate! My dogs much prefer staying at home vs a kennel and will definitely be using Shannon in the future! Be assured your pets are in great hands with her!”
“Awesome experience. My kitty Waffles is a shy, scared kitty around new people and has taken him days to interact with new people. Brittany got Waffles to interacts with her within a day and even seemed to be playful with her. I highly recommend Brittany and i will be using her again when i have the need.”
About: As a proud U.S. Navy Veteran, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I have experience caring for and training dogs in animal shelters and on base, along with providing monthly grooming for family and friends for over 10 years. I can assist with basic grooming, reinforce obedience commands, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with their safety, comfort, and happiness as my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾🤍 I love taking walks with my dogs and also help care for my mother’s dogs. I believe dogs thrive with consistency, positive reinforcement, and a good routine. 🐾 I help reinforce good behaviors and keep a consistent schedule for walks, meals, and playtime, so your pup knows what to expect and feels happy, comfortable, and secure. Your pup will feel right at home in my cozy 3-bedroom townhome, complete with a fully fenced backyard where they can safely roam, play, and enjoy some freedom! I’m an active person who enjoys taking long daily walks, so your furry friend will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and adventure. Most importantly, they’ll receive lots of love, attention, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! ❤️
“Sara was wonderful!! This is as the first time leaving our 3yr old very anxious yorkie. We were very nervous pet parents and had a very long list of directions for our baby and home. Sara didn’t mind at all and was very understanding of our needs. Sara stayed with her the whole time did everything we asked. We came home to a clean home and happy dog. We are definitely grateful that we have someone to watch our dog for future events. Thanks so much Sara”
About: It will be a honor to become your petsitter ❤️ I have volunteered to provide temporary homes for dogs and cats. I was always the one who took care of the pets when everyone went on trips.

On special occasions, I can extend my availability even further to meet your needs. As a dog sitter, I am committed to provide personalized attention to your pet, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being during your absence. Fitting into your daily routine and performing activities both at home and outings to dog parks or the beach. If you wish. My goal here is for your pet to feel comfortable in his or her routine and to have fun. But most of all that you feel at peace and know that your pet is in good hands.
“Bradley did an amazing job with our 3 babies and kept us informed of everything happening with our pets and home. He even sent pictures of our mail and packages as they arrived and kept the house neat and tidy! I’ve had some bad experiences with previous house/pet sitters. Bradley did a phenomenal jobs and I felt very comfortable leaving our dachshunds in the hands of someone familiar with the breed. Expect lots of pictures of your pack!”
“Wow! Do I have enough space to describe how awesome Kat is? Our sweet fur baby is a senior with significant health challenges of late. The only reason we were able to travel was because of Kat (this visit was a stay over in our home). It was clear that she understood the assignment and could be trusted to give timely meds. She also was not ‘afraid’ of the challenges. We knew Missy would be loved and doted on. Kat also understood this fur momma’s concerns and kept me updated with pics and a nice description of how things were going. I cannot say how much we appreciate her. Missy has initiated Kat into her Pack! We will absolutely request Kat every time we need help! She’s just AWESOME!🙌🏾”
About: I have been a veterinary technician for 3+ years and counting. We have had pets in our home since I can remember. I have grown up with the love and loyalty that our pets provide and is something that I cherish. I started pet sitting for coworkers and clients for about 2 years now. I love helping fellow pet owners with caring for their pets in a time of need. My favorite thing is gaining trust from pet owners and ensuring that owners have peace of mind when it comes to being away from their pets. Having the medical background that I do also helps to ensure that your senior babies are being taken care of properly. Pets are family. I am currently a full time veterinary technician and work all days (8am-6pm) except Tuesdays, every other Saturdays (only from 8am- 12pm), and Sundays. With my full time schedule, I make sure that a pets needs come first. I will only pet sit for pets that I can guarantee my utmost care. I house sit a lot as well so this is helpful with my full time job. I tend to pet sit close to my job so if I have to leave in the middle of the day to take a dog out, I definitely can. I make sure to follow all written or printed instructions to a T. I also make sure to stay in close contact with owners (not too close to ruin your vacation) to ensure that they are still at peace of mind throughout their time away. I also love to send photos of their pets while they’re gone so they’re not missing out on too much :)
“Kamora did such a wonderful job pet sitting my 5 fur babies when I had to go out of town! She was attentive and had great communication, providing photos and videos! I would definitely book her again!”
About: I have owned cats and dogs my whole life, of all ages. I have been taking care of other people’s animals for the past 2 years, and it’s honestly been such an amazing experience, seeing how grateful owners are that their babies are taken care of, and seeing how happy the pet is to have someone to play with or cuddle with. Pet care is my job so I have a wide flexible schedule for this! I do daily walks, or daily check ins. I also do sitting where I go over for hours at a time while the owner is away. I have clients who have pets who have never been alone before, and anytime they need to leave the house I’ll go over and sit with them, feed them, walk them if necessary. But it gives them a lot of peace of mind that their baby is not anxious with them gone, and is well taken care of.
“Yvonne was amazing! She took great care of our pets and gave them all the attention and love they needed while we were away. All three of our babies were in great spirits when we returned and the house looked great, too! Thanks Yvonne and Pablo for the special attention our kiddos received!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lake Hamilton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lake Hamilton on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,559 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lake Hamilton. 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 Lake Hamilton 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 Lake Hamilton 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 Lake Hamilton 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.
