“i was very pleased with Brandy's ability/skills in caring for my cat and keeping me informed of how things were going during my absence the space was clean when i returned and my fuzzy boy was very content”


“She has taken great care of my puppy. He is a husky, high energy, and wants all of the attention all the time. She even handled a mess in his kennel. I appreciate knowing he's in such good hands!”

About: I grew up with a black Labrador for 10 years and helped out with feeding him, playing with him, and walking him. Over the past year, I have boarded a cute pug on several occasions. This experience inspired me to join Rover. I absolutely love dogs and am passionate about caring for them and looking after them in the best possible way! I’m currently an elite runner who trains 2-3 hours daily, with a flexible schedule. I am excited to look after dogs and show them a good time! I have a spacious, unfenced yard in the countryside. I do not have a dog of my own or any pets. I am reliable regarding following instructions pertaining to the dog’s needs.

“Julia is wonderful and made both me and my animals feel very comfortable while we are on vacation. We are a mixed need and breed household and she was able to accommodate all of them. Will absolutely be booking with her again”

“Ruby was a lifesaver for us and our 3 dogs + 3 cats. After having a very stressful sitter experience with someone else, we were scrambling to find a last minute sitter who could care for our dogs who have developed separation anxiety and can’t be left alone for too long. Ruby hopped on board last minute, provided clear and consistent updates, cared amazingly for all of our animals, and even went above and beyond with cleaning. She also was able to expertly give two of our animals’ important medications twice a day every day, and let us know each time that it went well so we didn’t have to worry. She provided personalized care for each of our animals, which span from a shy kitty, to a 6 year old 100+ lb Pyrenees with hip dysplasia, to a 9 month old puppy who isn’t easy to walk on leash! Highly recommend Ruby’s care to anyone feeling anxious about leaving their beloved animals.”

About: My family has had pets my whole life, I owned my own horse until I was 16. I've cared for a multitude of dogs, cats, animals, really all of my life. I work remote and can be around to care for your pets in a full time, hands on capacity. I have house sat, pet sat for friends and acquaintances over the years. I miss animals and enjoy visiting my parents 3 dogs when I visit them, which inspired me to help others that need someone to care for their home or pets. I have been a remote worker for the last 8 years and traveled as a nomad for 7 of those years, I'm highly flexible on what environment I live/work and exist in. I am currently residing in Eugene, OR and want to house/pet sit, as I have no pets of my own currently and miss spending time with amazing animals. I'm a very attentive pet person, always staying outside with my dads dogs, to play, hang out and spend time with them. My family has owned a variety of large and small dog breeds, & cats. I have cat sat in the past and enjoy playing with cats and chilling with them. I'm a very clean, neat person, keeping a space tidy, helping my dad by giving a bath to his Jack Russell Terrier whenever I visit, as his dog has always loved and trusted me. I enjoy time with pets, and don't crowd them letting them feel comfortable.
About: I think what sets me apart is that I'm a genuine dog lover and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a petite Aussiedoodle, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family member. I'm attentive to each pet's personality, routines, and individual needs, and I love making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy staying active, going on walks, and making time for plenty of playtime and cuddles! I work remote full-time during the week, but I have flexibility to accommodate pet care throughout the day. I’m available for early morning visits, lunchtime walks or check-ins, and afternoon visits. I do my best to be flexible with scheduling and communicate clearly to make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and find a schedule that works best for everyone! I understand that welcoming someone into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big responsibility. I take that trust very seriously and always strive to be respectful, responsible, and mindful of your home and your pet’s environment. I will follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s normal routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Communication is also important to me, so I’m always happy to provide updates and photos for extra peace of mind!
“Olivia was did a wonderful job taking care of my 11 year old dog. They went out for regular daily walks and she even kept me updated with pictures. My house was clean when I returned and the flowers/garden had been watered regularly in my absence. I would not hesitate to book Olivia again for dog and house sitting.”

“Very responsible and trustworthy young woman. Great communicator. We had her housesit our dog and cat for 3 nights and left the place very clean. Our pets were well taken care of. We appreciated the time she took for a pre-visit so we could do a walk through. It was handy that she lived close by. We will definitely use her service again.”

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Caitlin! She went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be happier! Her communication was fantastic. She was professional, thoughtful and a great house sitter overall. Most importantly, all of our dogs and cats were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Caitlin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”

“Kaitlyn wall did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and three cats for an overnight. I would definitely recommend her. When she came to return the key, our dog went happily up to her and lay down at her feet—there’s the proof right there! Plus she sent pics of the animals and was a great communicator before, during, and after her stay.”

“We would highly recommend Sara C! We had to fly out of state last minute and Sara quickly replied and offered to come over and meet the pups. Sara sent over photos and checked in regularly and she helped us feel completely relaxed that our two dogs were in good hands. She brought in packages and the house was in great condition when we returned. If you are considering working with Sara C, go for it! We were so grateful with the wonderful care for our pups and we would definitely work with her again! Thank you!”


“We came home to happy, calm dogs and a clean house. Amber went above and beyond to prepare the house for our return. Her daughter was fantastic with both dogs and especially helped our smaller dog who has separation anxiety. She had great communication with us as well. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

“I Couldn't have found anyone better to watch my German Shepard for 4 days and stay in my home! Matthew loved on my dog like his own from the start. Took him on hikes, walks all the things my German shepherd needed and sent me pictures/updates the whole time I was gone. My dog is really high energy and requires a lot of attention and detail. This was also my first time leaving my pup alone for this long, so I was kinda nervous. I knew when I met Matthew he was a perfect fit. He was extremely responsive every time I texted him and I was completely at ease the whole time I was gone. His pup, koda, also stayed over so my pup got to have a friend all weekend long!! It was a win win! They were having a blast together, i loved every single video and picture I got. Matthew also left our house completely spotless!. Highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a responsible dog sitter that knows what they are doing with all dogs.”


“Leigh was amazing! Our Monty was so comfortable with her. She was very attentive and kept us updated throughout the day. It was great to see how relaxed and happy he was. We look forward to working with Leigh again and we highly recommend her services!”

About: I have experience with all sorts of animals. I have worked with dogs and cats and most other household pets including snakes and birds. I have also worked with horses and most livestock farm animals. I make a daily roster of animals to care for and schedule my time accordingly. I care for my animals first always and help my community with animal care needs. I have a large fenced yard with room to run. I have 2 female dogs that are well trained and managed. The smaller mutt is elderly (11) and has a room of her own where she will put herself as needed. My big girl Sally, the Bernese is friendly to all animals large or small and really the very best calm neutral dog I have ever known.
“Wow, thank you Sandy for everything this week! I just got home and my house is immaculate, the dog is happy and I’m happy. Thank you for being so communicative, sending me pictures and updates during the week, I really appreciate it. I’m definitely calling you first the next time I need a sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 936 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lancaster. 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 Lancaster 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 Lancaster 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 Lancaster 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.

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.
