“Nakeya kept my little Oakley for nearly a week which was nerve reckoning for my first time. I travel a lot for work so knowing that he was well taken care of gave me the comfort to work with ease. She was so great with providing multiple updates throughout the day including pictures and videos. Oakley adjusted to her home and family very well. I would undoubtedly recommend Nakeya for your fur babies needs!”
“Lisa did a fantastic job with my dog Bruno. She kept me updated the whole time. She sent multiple photos throughout the day that helped keep me at ease. My dog Bruno was cared for very well in her care.It was our first time boarding and it won’t be our last. I highly recommend Lisa for pet care. Will definitely return in the future.”
“Leaving Koda with Nytavia was probably the best experience we encountered with a pet sitter. She was very friendly, and accommodated Koda’s high maintenance needs. I would definitely recommend her services. 5⭐️”
“I can’t recommend her enough as a dog sitter. She’s not only incredibly attentive to my pup’s needs, but she also communicates quickly and thoughtfully. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such careful hands!”
“Roux had a wonderful time with Vimonluck! She kept us updated with photos, and it was clear how happy and comfortable our girl was. You can truly tell that she has a genuine heart for caring for animals. We felt completely at ease knowing Roux was in such loving hands, and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Joshua looked after my dog Blue, for a little over a week and all I can say is he is awesome. He took care of my baby with such care. He sent pictures, and gave timely updates, my Bluezy was a happy camper for sure. He was very accommodating and very flexible. He will be my go to sitter from now on should I ever need it. Book with him and you won’t be disappointed.”
“Lisa was so nice, welcoming and flexible. Not just her but her hubby and 3 dogs plus cat. I had an international trip that was planned and my original dog-sitter had a family emergency and had to cancel. Lisa stepped in last minute w/no issues. She opened her home for a meet/greet w/her dogs and hubby. I was allowed to look around and Luna was allowed to sniff and feel her way both inside and outside. She has a big yard for much olay time and open layout. My Punta Cana trip was then extended by 4 days due to weather and Lisa did not blink an eye on keeping Luna for an additional 4 days. Not only that but our flight then was delayed 4 additional times on our updated flight and once again, she was very nice and understanding. For myself, I was frustrated and didn't want her to feel unpleasant about it but she gave me the opposite feeling. Please book her. She's a definite recommendation. Her and her family (all) are very welcoming and dog friendly. She welcomed Luna back and I'm glad for that. Luna made a friend with her little one Teddy.”
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our one-year-old pup, Lalo! We needed a sitter for a last-minute weekend getaway, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive from the very beginning. Lalo is a rescue dog with very limited experience around other adults, so leaving him with someone new was a big step for us. Amanda was patient, understanding, and took great care to help him feel comfortable. One of our favorite parts of his stay was that he had the opportunity to enjoy supervised playtime with other dogs, which was such a positive social experience for him. Amanda also kept us updated throughout the weekend by sending pictures and progress updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Lalo was in caring, capable hands. We're so grateful for the love and attention Amanda gave Lalo, and we look forward to booking with her again in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“I was lucky to have found such a great sitter for my dog at very last minute. Grayson was very clear on communications and gave me generous amount of updates for a short stay Charlie had. It appears he’s very accommodating to specific needs for each dog. Charlie can’t wait to have another sleepover with him again!”
“Words cannot express how grateful we are for Mrs. Trudie and her family. This was our first time ever using an over night sitter for our dog. The entire time she communicated via text with updates and pictures. This made us feel at peace he was well taken care of. We definitely recommend and will be using her again in the near future!”
“Absolutely wonderful, communicated efficiently and handled him with love and care. She was really nice and friendly. Definitely great with animals my pup felt right at home with her.”
“Danielle was the perfect sitter! Her communication was on point, she sent several pictures each day, she was super kind, and my pup had a great weekend. I would absolutely recommend.”
“Shatara is great! She took good care of our 4 dogs! We really appreciate her! She was patient and attentive with our pups. Highly recommend Shatara!”
“D was the best!!! She was exactly what our family needed when we needed!! Patient, accommodating, and a great communicator. Every night I could rest well while away knowing our dog was in good hands.”
“OMG!! Aimee is the BEST!! This is the 2nd time we have had to leave our Zeus with someone, other than my parents, so we were nervous, but Aimee took all of our fears away. She sent personalized collages, photos, videos, and notes throughout his stay to keep us informed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to not only look after their fur baby while they are away but also someone to care for your fur baby like he/she is her own! I look forward to having Zeus be a part of her family the next time we are away. Thank you so much Aimee ❤️”
“Renita and Frederick took exceptional care of my doggies. They sent pictures that warmed my heart and went out of their way to welcome my pups into their home. This was my first time using Rover and they made me a fan. Thank you very much Renita, Frederick and Rover!!”
“Lillian was absolutely amazing! She was flexible with our unpredictable schedule and she managed to get my high energy pup tired. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Mango enjoyed her time on her pawcation with Karen! In every photo we received from Karen, our sweetheart looked full of life, energy, and love. Karen was very professional from the very beginning, from before the services commenced all the way through and after. Definitely recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for their fur babies while they’re away for a bit.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lancaster
Words cannot explain the joy of my fur baby getting taken care of as if it was me. My baby felicia's tail never stopped wagging. That is the way I know that my two months adopted for baby was happy because that's the first thing I noticed once I adopted her is that once she's happy the tail wags she's running she's playing she was in the best hands ever. I cannot say enough about this caregiver. I would recommend her and I definitely will be using her again, thank you thank you thank you for loving my animal as if she was your own. She felt right at home and that was a great thing because I didn't want her to feel like I had taken her back to the shelter thank you thank you thank you I love it. You are awesome. God put you here for a reason and I think this is one of the reasons is for you to share your love and give love to the fur babies of the world. Thank you again. I consider you family now because you took care of my baby like she was yours thank you so much Glenda Rice.
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Angel truly went above and beyond in every way. From regular updates and photos/videos to thoughtful, attentive care, it was clear our pet was loved and well looked after. Communication was excellent, and we had complete peace of mind the entire time. Angel is officially and her fur-baby Diesel our new favorite sitter. Highly highly recommend!
As a first timer using this app I didn’t know what to expect! Our fur baby was well taken care of and our sitter, AnTuan sent updates and pictures that helped calm my anxiety! When we arrived for pickup my girl was acting in pre fashion and I knew then she was safe! Thank you again

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Lancaster can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lancaster home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lancaster.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lancaster. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
You and your Lancaster sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
