“We re-booked Jenna for a 12-day vacation to care for our elderly two dogs with multiple medical needs. We trust her to care for them, administer their medications, and keep us informed. She sent pictures all along. The dogs enjoy having Jenna as their caregiver! I recommend her as a pet sitter as well to do drop-ins. We have also asked her to check on the dogs, let them out and feed them when we have a function in the evening. She’s a lovely, caring person.”
“Alicia is a dream come true pet sitter. These little fur balls are our everything and she treated them as if they were own. We went out on a day trip knowing they were well taken care of. She sent several pictures which made us feel even better. We will definitely be using Alicia again. Thank you Alicia 😊”
“I had the pleasure of meeting and using MyQueisha’s services twice. She really is patient and loving with my dog and treats him as a member of her family. Highly recommend”
“Patricia has been watching my babies off and on before she joined Rover. now it’s good to have a platform to schedule the times! I must say one of my dogs love her more than me hahaha. She treats them like her own babies! Given I have two large dogs it’s nice she has a huge yard for them To run around in and they feel like she’s their second mom. Could not say enough nice things about her and how happy my dogs are with her. I think they have so much fun they don’t want to come home 😔. 5 stars!”
About: Ever since i was a little girl, i've had a special compassion for all animals. Caring for them for friends, family, neighbors and coworkers. From playful puppies and kittens bursting with energy to wise old seniors, i've loved them all! Whether it's sticking to medication routine or helping a young one learn the ropes, i'm all in. No matter their age or needs, im genuinely happy to brighten their day and make them feel loved! Hi! I am currently working a part time job, which allows me to have more flexibility throughout the week! I'd love to spend my time taking care of some precious furry friends. I am available throughout the week at any time, for house sitting, overnight sitting or walks through out the day! I live in a small suburban neighborhood, with a fenced in backyard, and a sweet cat who keeps to herself. Im open to crate training dogs for overnight stays.
“Liz was awesome! Our fur babies loved her! She sent several pics even though she stayed 1 night. When we got home, everything was nice and neat. We highly recommend Liz and would definitely use her again!”
“Cathy is amazing! Highly recommend. We have two spoiled yorkies. Cathy gave them excellent attention and care while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands.”
“This was my first time leaving my babies Maggie and Milo for a trip and I was absolutely terrified of it. I was very worried about Maggie in particular because she has separation anxiety and doesn’t warm up to strangers. When Elizabeth saw that Maggie wouldn’t eat whatsoever, she went to the store and bought some food that helped with her appetite. She even took Milo to the vet since nobody else could take him and began administering his meds. I struck gold with Elizabeth who went above and beyond to gain their trust and take care of them. She also did all she could to reassure me and has won my trust. She took such good care of my dogs and I highly recommend her. Definitely will be having her dog sit my babies again when necessary!”
“McKinnon was great. She made sure to take great care of our dog that has some medical needs. Would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their pet.”
“Taylor was awesome. My dog, Miller, loved her and was very happy while I was gone. Taylor sent great pictures and treated my pup to the same love and attention he is used to. I will be booking with Taylor again and again!”
“Avary did a great job watching over our pets while we were out of town for about a week. Her communication was prompt, she sent lots of pics of our cat and dog, and we look forward to using her again for our pet/house sitting needs in the future!”
“Jordan is an amazing dog sitter, excellent communication, professional and our dogs love her. I was able to fully enjoy being away because she was taking wonderful care of our dogs. Will definitely have her sit again!”
“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”

Courtney was fantastic! She dogsat our needy pitbull for 3 weeks and took such good care of him and our home. She even took him to the vet when he had a small issue and coordinated meds. She is loving, responsible and responsive- a real gem! Grateful to have found her! Thanks so much, Courtney!
We had a wonderful experience with Virginia. She is kind, caring and a great communicator. Our dogs loved the playtime, walks and the extra time she spent with them and we have pictures to prove it! When we returned home they were calm and happy. We look forward to seeing Virginia again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lathemtown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lathemtown on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,195 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lathemtown. 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 Lathemtown 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 Lathemtown 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 Lathemtown 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 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.

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.
