“Jonathan was awesome with my dog Thor. Absolutely loved every picture he sent on all drop in visits with him while I was away for a weekend, Thor was always super excited to see him and it was like he had been taking care of him for years based on his reaction. Highly recommend”
“Maddy was great coming in daily to check on our three kitties. It was a great peace of mind knowing she was checking on them (and cleaning all their poo-I’m sure there was a lot of poo) and that she lives so close. We will definitely utilize Maddy again whenever we are out of town.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and currently have 3! I have 2 dogs, Bailey and Gomez. Gomez is a special dog who is very reactive, which has allowed me to gain experience dealing with difficult dogs, especially on walks! I’ve been dog sitting/walking for friends and family for years and have worked with all shapes and sizes- loving every single one the same! I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and understand that each dog has its own needs based on their personalities and health. I promise to give your furry friends all the love and attention they deserve ☺️ I run a small business from home which allows me to have an open schedule for pet care in all varieties. This allows me to have availability to fit your schedule and needs! I will always follow instructions given to me by the pet owner, as each situation is as unique as the individual pet(s). Your fur babies will always be in a safe, caring, patient environment when in my care.
“Rachel took such great care of my Loki and my apartment while I was gone. She was so wonderful with him and being able to inject him with the insulin daily. So thankful for her help!”
“Gina was excellent. She went beyond what I would expect. In addition to the daily feedings and litter pan maintenance, she offered to take out our kitchen garbage when it started to stink up our home while we were on vacation. She also let me know when one of the cats had gotten sick on our carpet, and she offered to clean it for me with our carpet spray. She brought in our packages while we were gone, too! That was not necessary, but of course it was appreciated! I loved that she sent us photos of the cat routinely. It was reassuring to see that they were doing well. I would highly recommend Gina. She was reliable and took the task seriously.”
“We booked Madison for drop in visits with our dog Milo. Madison was responsible and wonderful with Milo! Her love for animals certainly shines through her personality! Thank you Madison!”
“I cannot say enough about Abigail! Wow! She was incredible to work with and she was exceptional with our dogs. I loved her updates and photos - I swear it looked like our dogs were smiling in the video. She is trustworthy and conscientious!”
“Alexa was really great with our dogs. We have a very active puppy who is exhausting and she took the time to understand pup’s energy needs and keep her safely occupied. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and truly treat every pet like my own. I have a degree in animal behavior, experience working in veterinary clinics, and have been training dogs since 2015. I also have extensive experience with cats and a wide range of other species, including exotics (allowing me to offering in-home boarding for exotic pets). I’m comfortable adapting my care to different temperaments, routines, and needs, whether that’s an energetic pup, a shy cat, or a more specialized pet. My goal is always to provide calm, attentive, and reliable care so your pet feels safe and at ease while you are away 🖤🐾 Availability varies depending on owner schedules. Send me a message and we can coordinate. My openings are flexible; I offer morning, midday, weekend, and evening check-ins, walks, and training. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pet. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure, and I take a calm, patient approach, especially with shy or sensitive animals. I’m very attentive to safety (secure doors, safe feeding, clean spaces) and always make sure your home is left just as you expect. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I have been a dog, cat and all manner of other animals mama for more than 30 years. I believe that our furbabies are family and I treat them as such. I have never met an animal that I didn't love. I look forward to loving your babies the same way that I love mine and giving them as much attention and love as they can handle. I currently work my "real job" from home and can do it anywhere there's an internet connection, so, I am hoping to make a little extra money on the side doing something that I absolutely love which is taking care of animals. I have open availability and can usually accommodate most any need within 24 hours notice and if it's something as simple as a walk that you need on the fly, I can usually accommodate with 4 hours notice. I understand that care looks different for every animal, even ones in the same home and am dedicated to taking care of your fur babies in the exact way you want them to be taken care of.

Maisy has also done training at the happy hound.

I will treat your pet like they are my own.

“Ashley is amazing! My cat is very shy and usually hides when meeting strangers, but she warmed up to Ashley almost immediately. Ashley’s pictures were beautiful and her updates were informative. I would ask Ashley to care for my pets again without hesitation.”

We are so grateful to have found Kaitlyn! We have two dogs with very different personalities and she took exceptional care of both of them. She is an excellent communicator and kept us updated with regular messages and photos, giving us complete peace of mind and reassuring us that our dogs were happy and well cared for. We’re already looking forward to having Kaitlyn care for them again in the future and to the friendship we've built along the way. Thank you so much for everything!
Jonathan was great! He is the best sitter Kash has had the chance to hang out with ! From the meet and greet to the drop in visits, his services are appreciated. He sent amazing photos of her everyday and provided detailed updates about the day they had. He was attentive and immediately removed a tick when he seen it. Communication was great and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Kash was well taken care of His visits were on time and he had no problem accommodating her raw diet - to top it off, he even washed the bowls 🙌🏽. I would 10/10 recommend and plan to use his services in the future.
Erin was fabulous! She was communicative and kept us updated on our boys while we were away! She really made the extra effort to interact with our fur babies and make them feel comfortable with her! 1000% would I absolutely recommend Erin! Thank you Erin for taking care of these two and giving us some peace of mind on our vacation 🩷🐈⬛
Alexis came for a meet and greet in advance. She impressed us as professional, sweet to our two Westies, and committed to gathering information that would aid her in caring for them. She made us feel so confident in having her do two drop in visits and that helped us have a great time while we were away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lancaster on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 975 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lancaster. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lancaster stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lancaster. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% 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.
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.
