“Mai did an amazing job taking care of our dogs. We can tell that they got a lot of love and attention. We loved getting photos of our dogs when we were out and by the time we got home they were both tired from all the excitement of playing with Mai.”
“We were so thankful that Rachel was able to check in on our cats during our vacation. Rachel responded quickly to the request. During the meet and greet she asked great questions so she could learn more about our cats. When she cared for them she was attentive to their needs, checked the litter box and even brought in a package:)”
“This was our first time booking with Ormari and she was such a big help taking care of our pets while we were away. She was very detailed about making sure all of them had the proper care. Would absolutely recommend her.”
“I could not have asked for a better catsitter. Erin made sure to update me after every visit with pictures to see how my boy was doing, and he looked happy to see her every time. He got plenty of play time and affection on top of the basic necessities. She delivers on all of her promises– and she makes sure to tell you what to expect well in advance along. Einstein was well-fed, well-loved, and well-looked-after thanks to Erin. I look forward to booking her again in the future!”
“Kelsey is the best! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my cats for a weekend and Kelsey made it so easy. She communicated with me, sent pictures, and always showed up on time. I will absolutely be re-booking for my next trip:)”
“Hilary was very attentive and punctual. The cats Frosta and Smokey really felt comfortable with her. Smokey is shy and Hilary is the first person that could pet him. I highly recommend her and we would always book her again in the future.”
“Treats our cats like her own, providing peace of mind for pet owners! Colleen is very attentive to the behaviors/habits of our cats, and she’s extremely communicative. We will definitely book again!”
“Ashleigh was amazing. Very friendly and great with my highly concerned daughter. She sent descriptive messages and pictures each day and was great with playing with the cats, cuddles, and even managed to get my older, cranky cat his meds. She even brought in two packages we forgot were on the way! Highly recommended!”
“Sydney did a great job visiting my cats twice daily during my vacation. She even learned to give Big Boi Peter his insulin shot! She is real cat lover too, and could not be more perfect to leave your fur babies with.”
About: I am an experienced dog mom and love to take care of them! ♡ I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes and have experience with puppies, adults, and seniors. I would love to give your pup the same love and attention as I do for my own! My 10 year old teacup poodle Junabee is probably the most spoiled dog you will find! I adopted her after a loss in the family and take care of all her needs such as monitoring her leg after surgery, walking her, feeding her, grooming and making sure she is happy and comfortable. I also had my miniature poodle Booh who lived to be 18 years old. As she became older, she developed diabetes and I helped my family take care of her and make sure she was healthy. I also grew up with an Australian shepherd and a Goldendoodle, so I'm very comfortable taking care of big and small dogs. I've also had puppies and know what they require. I can help with anything from walks, playing, companionship, and more! ♡ I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to spend lots of time with your pup throughout the day, I am completely available on the weekends! ♡ I like to keep pets as comfortable and happy as possible by sticking to their usual routines, including meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you leave for their care and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their home. ♡
“We found Malia on sort of short notice and she was terrific during the drop-in visits with our old girl, Tink. Tink has numerous health concerns and anxiety, which Malia handled with ease, having to carry her on the stairs due to her senility and poor eyesight, give her pills and follow special feeding instructions. She was even willing to make an extra drop-in as I was nervous about leaving Tink too long. She made both of us feel at ease seeing the photos of Tink carrying on with her usual outside play and then resting in her bed. I will be scheduling her again!!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over a decade from high energy (I have a border collie) to low energy (I also have a shih tzu), elderly, and everything in between. I'd love to make your dog's day by taking them on a walk or giving them an incredible play time. Same goes for your cats! Whether your pets love activity or simply want someone to watch them sniff in the backyard or hang on the couch, I'd love to bring a highlight to their day. Right now, Friday nights through Sunday are the times I have completely free to dedicate to helping take care of your pets. I'm hoping to add more times soon and options to board. As someone who searches for hours to find the right person to watch my pets, I know how hard it can be to trust someone new to take care of your fur family. Whether it's pictures, reassuring texts, following your instructions exactly, or all 3 I will do my best to make your pets as happy and healthy as possible. I offer drop in visits and walks, so please let me know what you are and aren't comfortable with and I will make sure they are well cared for while giving you as many updates as you'd like!
“Trustable, dependable, friendly, competent, compassionate, knowledgeable. Zania is everything one would want in a pet sitter. My babies were loved and didn’t even notice that I was gone!”
About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, including raising my own dogs and caring for puppies, senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I currently have a 8 year yellow Lab named Nala. She’s sweet, affectionate and has just enough of the typical Lab troublemaker personality to keep things interesting! I’m comfortable following individual routines and giving each dog the patience and attention they need. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention, exercise and care they need while you’re away. I’m happy to adjust to what works best for them. Most importantly, I take being responsible for someone’s pet seriously. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own and I’ll make sure your dog is well cared for while you’re not there. I work full time during the week, but have the most flexibility on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule visits in advance so I can give each dog the time and attention they need. When I’m caring for a pet, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, nd well cared for. I’ll follow your instructions and their normal routine, whether that menas a walk, potty break, playtime, or simply some company.
“Juniper is absolutely fabulous. So attentive to each of my dogs’ varying needs, communicates well, and is very punctual. I HIGHLY recommend using Juniper to care for your sweet fur babies.”
About: Since I was little I have had a strong passion and love for animals of every kind. Dogs are definitely the superior though(shhh). Friends and family have always trusted me to take care of their furry friend. I have experience walking bathing and light grooming, basic training, and sitting. Growing up I had a beautiful cockapoo named Honey. I miss her so much and think about getting another dog all the time, but I am waiting until I graduate and settle down so I can give them a home they deserve. I would be so grateful to give this love to your 4 legged cutie! I am home full time, so I will have plenty of time and attention to give to your pet! I am very active, and go on walks/runs everyday. I live in a one bedroom apartment in Foxhall. I am a highly aware person, and I am always checking my surroundings and making sure everything is okay with everything and everyone. The safety of your pet is my highest concern. They will be in safe and loving hands.

Julie was a great sitter! She took excellent care of both of our cats and kept us informed of all of their activities. Great photos and notes on their food eating and litter usage we're great to have on top of knowing they getting lots of snuggles and scritches.
Zania is truly the most professional and attentive dog sitter that I have ever hired. She took excellent care of Rex and even provided me with some helpful insights. I e joyed my time away knowing Rex would be lovingly cared for. I highly recommend Zania and plan to hire her again!
Keyshleen did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my 2 pugs for stop in visits . She sent pictures both times and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care . If you need someone responsible that will love your pups like their own. I would highly recommend her . I will be using her again for sure .

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 .

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:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
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.
