About: I’ve taken care of the family dog for many years as well as our family cat. I have also petsit family members animals as little as a poodle, and as big as a German shepherd. I work a part time job at a kennel that has on and off hours so I like to plan ahead for future pet sitting gigs. I usually see any animal or pet as part of the family that I hold dear and need to protect. I would do a lot for all the fur babies out there as well as caring for them to my upmost best.

About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats since i was a kid, i treat our animals with love. Though theyre a little silly sometimes i still love em' I dont do anything really so i can chill at the house and watch them all day for you, i really dont mind at all. Id care for anyones pets as if they were my own. In my own home i absolutely adore my animals and love them to death. One hundred percent a must to let them potty and feed them of course.
“I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Jasmine! She came to watch our very senior, special needs dog as well as 2 cats and 2 feral cats. Every pet has their own complicated care instructions (tons of medications, special diets, schedules, etc.), but Jasmine followed all of our directions perfectly and was so awesome in communicating with us while we were away. We got tons of pictures and videos and it was incredibly reassuring to know all of our animals were receiving the care and affection they needed. Usually our senior dog is very sick after a trip away, so coming home to a healthy and happy boy was a huge win. I think the dog and cats maybe miss her more than they had missed us!”
About: I grew up in a household that took in more than 7 strays dogs, and now I have 1 rescue dogs myself. I used to take care for my two 13 year old dogs and I am able to take care of special needs dogs. I currently work as a professor, and working towards a doctoral degree. Please schedule in house sittings and drop-ins with time so I can accommodate my schedule. Currently living in Hickory/Newton Area, but commuting everyday to Charlotte. I will take care of your house and your pets as they are my own. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me.

About: More than a decade of professional pet care experience in a variety of roles. I have 3 of my own pups. My partner works from home, and will stay with them so I can come spend all my time with your kiddos. I train service dogs! I'm currently self-employed, so I can work around your schedule, and come spend as much time with your fur baby as wanted! My partner works from home, and will be staying with our pups, so I can give your kiddo all my attention. I know how to read dog body language to ensure their comfort and meet their needs (and wants!). I've been training dogs for many years, and will use Fear Free tactics to keep their routine while helping them adjust to me as a new person, and any new aspects of their walking/ sitting in my care.
About: I have been a animal lover my whole life. When I had to personally hire a pet sitter, I was very particular who I allowed to come into my home and take care of my babies. I was blessed to have found a wonderful sitter. In fact that’s how I became a paid sitter. She hired me to take care of her clients and personal animals when she went on vacation. With over 20 years of experience, I can provide references as well as the posted reviews. Our pets are more than just animals, they are family. I will give your companions the attention they need as well any special request. From dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and farm animals, I have the expertise you need. We all want our pets to be safe, comfortable and cared for while we are away. I'm here to assure you that I will treat your loved ones as one of my own and look forward to meeting your entire pack! I currently pet sit and book accordingly. My attention to detail allows me to care for 4 households a day. My daily routine includes greeting and walking the client and feedings as well. Some need special attention, so my time is dedicated to that. Making time to care and treat these clients as family is what I do. From walks to belly rubs, these clients have my full attention. When you’re at work and you need me to come by and let "Fido" out for a walk,I'll greet him\her with a smile. Each pet is different. Giving them their own special attention is important. I can leave you a note, text or contact of your desire on that day's adventure. Before leaving your residence, I will make sure your loved one has adequate provisions until you arrive home. I'll also sweep your pets area and make sure your home is secure. If you have any special request, then let me know. Overnight care is also provided. You can rest assure that your pet and home are my upmost concern, while you are away.

“Parris is a godsend, and in general a genuine human being!! This is only our second time using Rover, and we feel so blessed to have found/met Parris. Our little Henry has seizures and finding care for him is nearly impossible - not for Parris though! He was up for the challenge and took the best care of Henry! He sent lots of photos/videos to make sure we felt at ease knowing our sweet boy was in THE BEST hands! Henry had a difficult feeding routine, but Parris mastered it and even got Henry to eat all his meds with no issues 😄 Meeting someone (like Parris) you know you can trust with your dog is priceless. Truly, we feel blessed to know Henry has a new pal and will always be in good hands. Henry is already looking forward to his next hangout with his Pal 🥰 THANK YOU PARRIS WE APPRECIATE YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW!”

“Our previous rover cancelled on us last minute and Angelica stepped in for us with one day notice and house sat our 3 animals for an entire week. She kept our house clean and tidy and took such great care of our pets. I’m so thankful for her and highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lawndale is $73 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $73 and $73 per night. 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 470 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lawndale. 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 Lawndale 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 Lawndale 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 Lawndale 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lawndale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
