“I can’t thank Angela enough for the wonderful job she did walking my dog, Cash, this weekend! She was prompt, professional, and so caring with him. Angela went above and beyond by not only taking great care of Cash but also sending me updates and adorable pictures that documented her visit. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Cash looked so happy in every photo, and it’s clear Angela genuinely loves what she does. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog walker!”
About: I have 3 doggies of my own that I love. I have over 2 years of experience in pet care. I've worked with dogs of all ages and different breeds. I worked at a dog boarding facility and puppy store. I did a lot of feeding, cleaning, playtime and updates for owners. I have also given medications and cared for dogs with special needs. I'm not employed right now and I have a lot of free time. I can visit or stay with your pets as long as needed. I can safely care for your pets in your own home. I will follow any instructions and schedule of your pet. I will care for them as if they are mine.
“My Wife says I love the dog more than her, and any good husband knows not to argue with their wife so that said, our Dog is the most precious thing and I’m always anxious to leave her, not to worry though, Penny loveed AnTuan from the first couple of minutes and it made my few days away from her very stress free. Came back home to happy, stress free dog. Top, top service and helped us at short notice too. Couldn’t recommend him more !!”
About: Pet Care isn’t only my profession, it’s also my passion. I grew up volunteering at animal shelters, rescuing strays, grooming family and friend’s pets to earn new books, and participating in 4H. That developed into working at an animal shelter, fostering and training stay dogs, and horseback competitions. I learned to groom through a mentorship at a grooming and boarding facility, and now specialize with aggressive and anxious dogs who are turned away from other grooming shops! I’m currently in a mentorship for dog training at a training and boarding facility and continue to foster whenever the opportunity arises. My priority is always honest, compassionate, and ethical pet care. I am equally passionate about people as I am about pets, and strive to make myself a judgement-free resource for owners who feel confused, overwhelmed, or out of resources. Whether that’s teaching owners how to properly brush their dog, helping owners understand their pet’s behavior, finding resources, creating solutions for pet problems, assisting with rehoming when life doesn’t go as planned, or even just helping to foster a healthy and confident relationship between owner and pet. I have worked with ALL sizes, ages, and temperaments and I love all of them. I have worked with special needs dogs, and dogs with extra medical requirements. I’m currently working part-time and my job is quite flexible so I have plenty of time for your pups throughout my days. Each week is different but reach out to me and we can work something out! Because of my background working with dogs professionally, I am more structured and safety minded than most but it works in your benefit when leaving your pups in my care. I strive to follow the dog’s usual routines as closely as possible and make sure that exercise, mental stimulation, feeding, and play needs are met according to each pup’s requirements and owner preferences. There is no ‘one size fits all’ care routine when it comes to dogs since they are all individual and different just like people!
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Your pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away and you deserve peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. With years of experience caring for pets for family, friends, and through Rover, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so their day can feel as normal as possible while you’re gone. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty break, meals, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and getting the attention they deserve. I carefully follow your instructions and pay attention to the little things, because I know every pet is different.You’ll also receive updates and photos during visits so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. My goal is to make being away from your pet easier for you and stress-free for them.You can relax knowing your pet is cared for with patience, attention, and lots of love. 🐾💕 I have a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last-minute bookings. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, allowing me to give each pet plenty of attention and care. I have a safe and loving environment to cater to your pet needs. I have a fenced home for your pet to run and play and to enjoy their stay. I have 2 dogs. I could also come to your home to provided loving care for your pets.
About: I've taken care of family and friends pets for years. Experience with cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters, while also helping raise puppies, kittens and baby hamsters. My availability for drop ins/walks are mostly in the afternoons on week days after 6pm and all day/overnight on the weekends to help out when your days get busy. I have a friendly dog who loves making new friends with other dogs and cats. And also have a long walking trail close to home.
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, and get to choose when I work. 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.
“Elizabeth was absolutely perfect. We hit it off from the time she came for the meet and greet. I could tell that she was going to be a perfect fit to care for Nola!! We would highly recommend her and will use her again.”

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!
“This is the third time I placed my baby Zeus in Aniyah's care and she was wonderful! She's always punctual, sends numerous photos, and always goes above and beyond to put your mind at ease while you're away. I will definitely continue depending on her to care for Zeus.”
“Alexia was wonderful with our dog, Milo! He was a little nervous at first, but she was so patient and gave him the time he needed to warm up to her. She provided drop-in visits, sent detailed updates and plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure Milo was comfortable and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking Alexia for all of our future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend! 🐾”
About: I have 4 years of hands on experience caring for my own and others’ pets, including senior, disabled, and chronically ill animals. I’m comfortable with pets who need extra patience and attention, including medication routines, mobility accommodations, feeding and hydration monitoring, and changes in behavior or appetite. I also have experience with everyday care such as feeding, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable while their people are away. I’m currently offering pet sitting on a limited basis so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention. My schedule is flexible, and I’m starting with a small number of bookings each week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s established feeding, medication, play, and care routine. I care for pets in their own home and follow the routines and instructions provided by their owner. I’m attentive to feeding, water, medications, litter boxes, walks, behavior, and changes in appetite or energy. I’m especially comfortable giving senior, disabled, or special-needs pets the patience and extra attention they may need.
About: My husband and I have a passion for all pets. I have a flexible job and am home most of the time during the day so I am able to provide lots of love, attention and playtime to our furry friends. My husband gets home around 5, and he loves coming home to new dogs and cats to play with and cuddle! We have a large, fenced in yard for our guests to run and play in. In addition, we provide the “parents” with updates and pictures throughout the stay so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is having fun and is well cared for. We have 2 friendly dogs and 2 friendly cats of our own. We look forward to caring for and loving your furry friend! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns😊 **If your dogs are not cat friendly, we can still accommodate you by keeping the cats in a separate area of our house!
About: I have taken care of many dogs through out my years from small chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees. I currently own a German Shepherd, Blue Heeler and two Great Pyrenees that I love with all my heart. I have experience with many breeds and also with training dogs. I can potty train them and teach them a few discipline skills like sit and stays and also teach them funny tricks. I have always loved animals and I want to use this opportunity to experience more with animals as a future veterinarian. I believe becoming a dog sitter will help me have more experience with getting to know different dogs. I honestly believe this will be a fun experience to meet new people and their beloved pets.
“We have had Kari check on our cat several times and she always does a fantastic job! Our cat takes multiple medicines and can be a bit high maintenance, but Kari always takes great care of him and gives us thorough updates. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and that’s so comforting to any pet owner.”
“love lisa!!! so prompt, communicative, detailed, and loving. my cat immediately clung to and trusted her and she went above & beyond each visit. will definitely rebook!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lancaster is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,192 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lancaster. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
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.
