“Shatara was very attentive to our babies! This was our first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous but Shatara was a wonderful first sitter! Would book again!”
About: I have quite a bit of experience when it comes to caring for animals. I’ve personally taken care of my own dogs as well as family members. I can feed, bathe, walk, administer medication, and complete whatever duties needed to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I have experience in caring for puppies and senior dogs. I’ve also earned my certification to be a Veterinary Assistant. Im currently not employed full time, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am currently enrolled in my 1st year of Vet Tech school, but it will not affect me being able to work for rover. I have a fenced in backyard that is secure for my pets. I make sure that there’s nothing on the ground that can harm my pets. I keep a close eye on my pets while they are outside whether it’s to play or potty. I also have cameras for extra security. I plan to care for my clients pets like they are my own. If I’m visiting a clients home I would follow those same safety precautions.
“Morgan responded immediately to a last minute request to do a drop in visit on my newly adopted rescue. Great communication, showed up on time, and was great with the pups. Will 100% be using her regularly. Highly recommend.”
“Carmen and Dee were absolutely amazing with my 2 babies!!! They watched them for a week while I was out of town and were even flexible when I had to extend my trip. They sent me lots of photos from every drop in and updates which relieved my anxiety so much!! I have a very anxious and difficult Frenchie he does not cooperate well with strangers but Carmen and Dee knew exactly how to gain his trust and made my babies feel comfortable. They followed all my instructions and kindly cleaned their food and water bowls. I couldn’t have picked better sitters and I will definitely be booking with them from now on 🥹🫶🏽 10/10 recommend!!!”
About: I love all kinds of dogs and their playfull nature!I normally walk for 30 minutes or more on a regular so if your dog needs a nice walk in definitely built for it! I have access to someone that has experience dog grooming so if your dog needs a good wash I can provide that as well. I'm pretty open to request so if you need something all you have to do is ask and we can work something out. If your dog likes attention I have kids that love dogs that will help wear out any high energy dogs and I don't mind going to some open fields and having the open run around till their hearts content. I would love to create some regular customers but if you only want to try me out I'm more then ok with that!
“Haylee was amazing with Fable and took the time to stop by to get to know her and to get familiar with the house and her needs. Excellent sitter, highly recommended! Thank you so much Haylee”
About: I have loved and handled pets/animals of all kind since I was a toddler with no fear in sight. Outside of my own pets, most of my family and friends have always had some sort of pet that I have watched or taken care of- dogs, cats, snakes, fish, turtles, ferrets, lizards, some of everything. My grandfather also had a farm with horses, chickens and cattle that my brother and I helped him take care of. I am a substitute teacher, so I don’t work everyday. This also means that I have the summer and holidays off so my flexibility is very high. If I am in someone else’s home caring for their pet, I follow all rules set by the owner for both the pet I’m watching and myself. If I am watching a pet at my home, I make sure everything is very neat and clean so there are no health hazards and they can’t get into things they shouldn’t.
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how it is when you’re wanting to trust someone! Have no fear! I’ll be your fur baby favorite homegirl! I work full time (for myself) Monday-Thursday. My availability would be starting sometimes Thursday evening or Fridays-Sundays. However I’m open to being as flexible as needed! While I’m home we tend to chill or play with toys! When it’s nap time we nap in crates and go outside to play after!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages since I was a child! I grew up on a farm and have had Rottweilers, Pitbulls, cats, horses, and lots of animals of various sizes in between. I love all dogs and cats from chihuahuas to Great Danes and would love to care for your pet as well :) I currently work 3 days a week so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am available 4 days out of the week and will have those 4 days off to devote to your pet! I live right on the Katy Trail and walk there everyday. I have no pets of my own so there’s no need to worry about negative interactions. I am also willing to take your pets to any appointments they may have!
About: Caring for my chihuahua mix for the past 5 years has given me hands on experience with daily routines, behavior quirks, and how to provide calm, loving care, especially for small or nervous dogs. As a high school teacher, my schedule allows me to be especially flexible during weekends, holidays, and summer breaks. During the school year, I’m available in the afternoons and evenings on weekdays for walks, drop-ins, or sitting needs. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or daily care, I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the love and attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always create a calm, welcoming environment where pets can feel secure and cared for, whether we're at your home or mine. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to provide personalized care and minimize stress. You can trust that I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you’re always in the loop and can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and currently have a 7-year-old Shih Tzu that I’ve cared for since she was just 6 weeks old. I’ve also taken care of my brother’s Golden Retriever, my grandpa’s pit bulls, and friends’ dogs by feeding them, playing with them, taking them outside, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available on weekends for pet sitting, walks, drop-ins, feeding, and playtime. I’m dependable, responsive, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention and care while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and a client’s home. I pay close attention to instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, make sure dogs get enough exercise and attention, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have a fenced yard and enough space for furry friends to run around my home!

I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular exercise, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention and affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with companionship, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to provide a loving environment where dogs can thrive, whether they are staying in their own home or in mine. If you want something that helps you stand out, you could add: As a teacher, patience, consistency, and attentiveness come naturally to me. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care, clear communication, and lots of positive attention. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now because I am on summer break from teaching and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than only being available during limited hours. Whether your pet needs regular walks, frequent potty breaks, medication reminders, or simply extra company, I have the time and flexibility to make their care a priority and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and affection. Because my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely supervised and dogs are kept on a leash for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and house rules to help pets feel secure and comfortable. I maintain clear communication with owners and treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.
“Kimberlee was able to accommodate a short request for our dog when we went out of town unexpectedly. She came to see Coco and play with her and let her out. I really appreciated her quick response and the way that she and her family treated Coco when they were with her. I highly recommend you use her!”
About: I was raised in a rural area with 10 acres of land, and we have always had pets. I've always had a furry child; there has never been a moment in my life without one. I've had the pleasure of raising a variety of dogs throughout the years, as well as two cats. I now have a well-behaved, two-year-old black Lab named Jake. When he was just a tiny puppy, I started training him. He continues to pick up new skills despite having many masteries. I have given Jake all of his training and skills, and even though I have some training expertise, I am not a certified trainer. Jake and I spend a lot of time exercising because we enjoy being outside. Some days, we take a quick lap or two around the block, and others we go for a lengthier walk on the trails! I am a rule-follower, and your pet's health, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities. I am available for drop-in visits (bathroom breaks and feedings), walks, and baths (no grooming). If there is any way I can assist you with your furbabies, kindly let me know! I work three days a week at my full-time job and go to college full-time. I spend a lot of time at home and have time for walks, exercise, baths, and drop-in visits for potty breaks, feedings or check in on your fur babies. I am currently unable to accept any pets for boarding or home-sitting for more than a few hours due to my work and academic commitments. Your pets will be treated the same way I treat mine: as members of the family. At times, my Jake virtually owns the home! While I do let my baby sit on my furniture, I will always abide by your house's pet-related rules. Just make sure to let me know what they are so I can make sure we're acting properly. Currently, I am not available at this time for pet boarding. I do charge for pet baths and it's arranged by weight. Rover only lets me set one price for all and I don't charge one price for all dogs. Please message me if you're interested in having your pet washed and ill tell you my price based on their size/weight.
About: Todays mood is sponsored by coffee and dogs🤎 My shihpoo coco is a EMS dog and has brought me so much comfort. Being around animals is my happy place and how I love to spend my free time. I take care of friends and families dogs so I figured this would be the best resource to expand to others needs. I currently work full time hybrid. I am home often and always free on the weekends. I can also do overnights. We have a dog park and potty breaks are every 2 hours. My dog is personally crate trained however I am open to uncaged dogs if potty trained. My apartment is key fob and surveillance secured. My dog loves to play with others and is very friendly. We often visit Barney Bark Park.
About: My availability is very flexible. I work from home now and am finally able to love on your fur babies around the clock! I also offer house sitting at your home or at my house as well. I love taking the fur babies out for a walk. It’s good exercise for them and myself to get fresh air. Previously had two chihuahua’s that were escape artists so fully doggy proof. I also have experience on working with handicap fur babies. I currently worked with a fur baby that lost motion in his back legs prior to his visit to me and he was/is now able to balance on his back legs from the at home physical therapy we would do. And now he gets so excited when I drop by his home to check on him (we are actual best friends seriously.) I am available to walk your dogs or check in on your cats/dogs while you are away as well as make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and play time throughout the day if you have an extremely busy schedule. I have been house sitting dogs and cats previously for well over 15 years and have owned pets previously (before my parents moved overseas and kept the pack together) for well over 20 years. Would love to help with your fur babies! I work full time as a manager from home so I am able to fully utilize loving on your fur baby as well as take them out for walks and potty breaks consistently. When I am pet sitting the babies sleep in the bed with me and are on the couch getting all of the cuddles. It is a staycation.
About: Hello, Professional dog sitter here! I Worked at the SPCA Of Texas for 3 years taking care of any size dog you can think of! From cleaning up after them to taking them on long enriching walks to giving them the love and care they deserve to hiding the meds they hate in cheese or meat lol. I have some experience in training, mostly in reading and redirecting unwanted behaviors. I currently work at the spca, full time, with the schedule of wed-sat. Sun-Tuesday I am completely free, would be more than happy to check on pups when I get off work too (around 6) I have a small-ish backyard, but I would take pup out for walks and possibly a doggy park so they would not be couped up! I could even take pup to work with me at no charge to you! I would be with them at all times and they could interact with other pups.
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was 17 so from that I have experience helping raise and nurture malnourished fur babies. When it comes to giving dogs their medicines I am punctual. Once I come into care of someone else’s baby I treat them like they are my own :)! I work mornings as a part time barista in Victory Park but after I have an open schedule. On my off days i’m free to care for your pets at any time. (I’ll update those off days weekly). When it comes to caring for your pets in your home, I’m very respectful and responsible of the place i’m doing it in. If you like to be inundated with plenty of pictures of your pets, i’m your gal! I like to make sure that clients can go about their day feeling secure in who they entrust their pets and homes to. <3

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.
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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lancaster with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
