“We had Bryanna stay at our house to watch our puppy for a few days. She did come by to meet us and Luna ahead of time to get to know Luna and her schedule. Bryanna did a great job with our puppy Luna. She communicated back and forth as well so we were able to know how things were going while we were away.”
“Ella was amazing watching our kitties while we were gone! She had great communication and sent us multiple pictures everyday to check in! She is very kind and even got our very shy kitty to open up to her! We will absolutely book with her again and I will recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter!”
“Emma was AMAZING! 3 Great Danes and she handled their clumsy-ness and lap dog tenancies without a hitch. My stupid dogs ran off to the neighbors house and had an incident with the neighbor dog. She handled the situation perfectly and kept my dogs, the neighbor and their dog, and myself feeling safe about the incident the rest of booking. When I got home and apologized again to my neighbor, they said that Emma did great the whole time and were impressed with the way she handled things. 10/10 would recommend Emma!!”
About: I am a stay at home mom to four human children and one four pawed pup! Our pet is another member of our family and I will treat your pet the same! My husband and I both grew up with dogs and we have had our rescue Rio for over 7 years. We have taken obedience classes with Rio and frequented the FIDO dog park in our town when he was a puppy. We also live near a walking/biking trail that welcomes dogs. Our yard is large and fenced in with lots of dog and kid toys to play with. We also allow dogs through out our house and are comfortable with them sharing our space while respecting that sometimes dogs need their own space as well. Your pup will have lots of attention in our home and be treated as one of our own for his or her stay with us. I have lots of experience with walking a variety of dogs. I am comfortable and have experience walking more than one dog at a time, and walking dogs of all sizes. I come prepared with extra poop bags, leashes, and water for your pet. I am willing to work with you on any specific commands you use while walking your dog because I believe consistency is key. Your dog's safety on our walks is my top priority closely followed by getting them some exercise and potty breaks! I have been on the Rover platform since 2018 providing boarding, daycare, drop in and walking services. Between dog walks, drop offs and pick ups, I am home the majority of the day as a stay at home parent. I have been doing, boarding, daycare, walks, and drop ins with Rover since 2018 and myself and my family enjoy it immensely! We have a large fenced in yard with lots of room to run, sniff and explore. Our yard has two gates with one main gate used frequently. The entrance that your pet will use to go in and out of the house is within the fenced area. Inside we have numerous gates to section off areas as needed. We have room and experience with crating if you would like to bring a crate for your pet. When I am caring for your pet in your home I will work with you to find the best and safest way for me to enter and exit your home. I have worked with and welcome families with cameras in or around their homes as well. I act no differently when I am with your pet than when I meet you and your pet at the meet and greet.
About: I grew up having dogs around and they are my favorite animal! My family has been fortunate to adopt 3 dogs, so far, in my life: a Black Lab-Dachshund, a Bassett Hound, and an Australian Cattle Dog; all very different dogs! I also have the experience of watching family & friends animals over the years! Having been around so many different types of dogs has taught me how many different behaviors and reactions they have depending on the environment or people it is/has been surrounded by. At the end of last year I got married and moved to Fond du Lac and have been looking at some part time work. I am very flexible with scheduling right now! I will ensure your pets comfort, safety, and well-being by learning their daily schedules and rules by their owners. I understand that comfort, safety, and trust comes in three parts, the owner, the pet, and myself; and will respect all parties.
“Emma was absolutely fantastic with our large dogs! They are a bit high maintenance in their own ways but they were taken care of perfectly! Will absolutely be booking again in the future!”
“Rowan stayed with our blue heeler in our home for 6 days and was great with her. He was very patient and tolerant of her quirky habits. He took her for walks, car rides, played with her a lot and sent me many pictures. Rowan is very dependable and responds quickly to texts and asks questions if necessary. Thanks Rowan! Loved that you gave Terra your full attention while you were here.”
“Megan was wonderful! She spent a lot of time with our girls and showered them with affection. We received many photos and videos of them playing and relaxing outside, which ensured us they were doing fine. She even vacuumed and picked up before she left. Would definitely schedule with her again and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! My name is Ryaan, and I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Animals have always been a huge part of my family, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also worked for several years at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic care, supervising playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Your pet will be treated like family in my care! 🐾 I currently have just a few 1 hour classes a week on just Mondays and Wednesdays and am home for the most part otherwise making me available for your pets. -fenced in yard -home frequently -able to provide long walks and lots of playtime -safe home (mostly pet proofed) -stairs are needed to be taken to get up to the house and down to the backyard
“Bella was a great communicator, did a wonderful job watching our two dogs. She left the house in perfect condition after house sitting for 4 nights. She even did the laundry and cleaned up when one of our dogs had an accident on the couch. She was wonderful!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who has cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs and birds. I’m very comfortable caring for animals both young and old. I have experience with senior dogs that require daily care (medications/baths/eye and ear cleaning) as well as animals still in training. Whether your pet needs high-energy fun or gentle companionship, I’ll treat them like a member of my family. If boarding at your home I’m also willing to help with gathering mail, watering plants and other small household needs. I’m currently not working many hours at my job and thought this would be a great way to spend my extra time since I love animals. I am responsible for normal activities such as feeding my dog twice a day, and letting her out. I take time daily to play with my dog and enjoy giving her treats. I also find time to wash her, clip her nails, clean her face, etc.
About: I’ve always had a huge heart for animals! It brings me so much joy to meet people’s loved ones and provide them with ease of their animal being taken care of while they’re away! 🐈🐩😊 My schedule is flexible and I’m more than happy to make time to do a meet and greet and figure out times that work for us both! I’ve had animals my entire life-a huge source of joy for me! I have experience pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors! I always bring an open and patient heart to any animal I meet :)
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I've trained my own dog since she was a puppy, and she's learned commands such as sit, stay, wait, lay down, shake, roll over, and heel, including walking calmly off leash. Through that experience, I've learned the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I've also cared for dogs with special needs, including my sister's French Bulldog with a cleft palate, which required extra attention during feeding and daily care. In addition, I've dog sat for a dog that needed heartworm medication, so I'm comfortable following care instructions and administering medications as directed. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every dog like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule as a full-time dental hygiene student. While school keeps me busy, I’m organized and able to dedicate time throughout the week to providing reliable care, attention, and companionship for pets. I currently work one day a week at Bath & Body Works, which allows me to balance my responsibilities while making time for pet care. I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, feeding routines, litter box cleaning, and quality time with animals into my schedule. I’m responsible, dependable, and understand how important it is for pets to have consistency and care while their owners are away. I provide pet care in my client's home so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, medication needs, and any special care requirements. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I will keep their space clean, provide plenty of attention and companionship, and send updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: My family has had a dog since I was younger and I currently have a mini goldendoodle. I understand how keeping dogs happy and cared for is vital to ‘owners.’ I have a very flexible and open schedule! I like to take my own dog for longer walks to get energy out and relax our minds together. I love playing with them so they’re not just sitting around unhappy. It’s important to me to make sure all of their needs are met as I believe this affects longevity and overall well-being.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 197 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lamartine. 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 Lamartine 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 Lamartine 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 Lamartine 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.
