“I was very nervous about going on vacation for five days leaving my animals, but I found Abigail on Rover and she was absolutely amazing. I’ve told my friends about her. She took very good care of my animals. I would definitely recommend her. She gave me detailed information and updates on my babies. Thank you Abigail. You are the best.”
“Desiré took good care of my puppy she was left alone at home sadly we forgot to refill her food container plus we temporarily lost the key so she was left with no security at home. I’m thankful I was able to find her and got a response immediately and came home fed her and took her for a 4 walks! Stayed 5 hrs while we were away. Thank you so much for your service!”
“Aaliya was amazing from start to finish. Before our trip, she took the time to come meet us and June so we could make sure everyone was comfortable, and right away we could see how much she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. We were away for over a week, and having Aaliya stay with June gave us so much peace of mind. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, took June on walks, and stayed in touch with us throughout the entire trip. It was clear that June was well cared for and loved while we were gone. We are so grateful for everything she did, and we would absolutely choose Aaliya again to watch June in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter! 🐾❤️”
“Alison is awesome! This was our first time using Rover. We have 2 big dogs that are high energy. During our meet-and-greet, we could tell Alison was comfortable with their size and energy. She answered all of our questions and we felt good making the decision to choose her as our sitter. We came home to happy pups and our home was just as we left it. Will definitely book Alison again!”
“I highly recommend Eric! As a pet sitter myself, it’s tough leaving your beloved animals with someone else, but Eric took wonderful care of our two rescue dogs and one rescue cat. He provided daily updates with pictures … and we came back to happy animals and a clean home😊 Do yourself a favor and book him!”
“Daniel was great. Our fur babies were kept on their schedule and given lots of love. I also appreciated the pictures Daniel sent to show how they were doing. Would definitely ask Daniel to look after our dogs again.”
“We Loved having Kimmie take care of our fur baby! What a peace of mind knowing someone was there tending to all her needs! We will use her again next time we need someone to watch our girl! Thank you!”
About: I have had pets my whole life and I am an older person but in very good health. I have pet sit for many years and have enjoyed every pet. I love to take walks so your pet would get daily walks and lots of love. I am retired so have plenty of time to take excellent care of your pets. I like to walk so taking a dog for a walk is a pleasure. I like to follow the clients schedule for their pets so they are comfortable and are at ease, both the client and the pet. Pets do much better and are less stressed.
“Morgan did a fantastic job with our 2 dogs. She kept them at our home for a whole week. She stayed in communication with us, and provided good care and great judgement. She left everything in good order.”
“Perfect! Our sweet fur babies were cared for so wonderfully, Yi sent many updates and pictures of our 3 boys and they seemed to enjoy her company as well. This was our first time using rover and we were so glad with who we allowed in our home and around our fur babies!!”
“We’ve now used Natalie twice and both experiences have been great. Everything went smoothly, she took wonderful care of our pets and home, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. We’ll definitely continue to use her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little, including my own pit bull and shih tzu. Having experience with both high energy and low energy dogs has taught me how to adjust my care to fit each pup’s needs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving attention to their pets. Whether your dog needs active playtime or a calm, cozy companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the day and week. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine the same so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks or playtime, and always have fresh water. I’ll also give them lots of love and attention, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve had pets since I was young. I love petting animals and playing with the. My family and friends have depended on me to care for their furry friends for them while they were out of town. I am currently available at any time to help out. I am available also on weekends and holidays, as well as overnight if I am needed. I have a fenced in backyard as well as three of my own friendly dogs and one cat. There is also ample amount of space for a crate inside and outside. I love to go on walks and have a dog friendly park within a 5 minute drive from my home.
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets of different ages and temperaments, including puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require extra attention, medication reminders, and a calm environment. I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and detailed care notes so owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m currently new to the area just relocated from the beautiful San Diego California. I’m enjoying then change of environment, weather but mostly the new fur buddies I’m making 😊 Trusted pet care ❤️ I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, exercise, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of attention and affection. In a client's home, I respect the pet's environment and maintain their schedule while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly space with close supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love and companionship. My priority is ensuring every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“I cannot recommend Felipe enough. He stayed in my home for three weeks to care for my senior dog and did an exceptional job in every possible way. He followed every instruction and consistently went above and beyond, especially given that my dog is older and requires special care. Throughout his stay, he remained calm, patient, and thoughtful, even when unexpected situations came up. He physically lifted up and assisted my dog countless times when he couldn’t get up or walk, kept him comfortable, and genuinely cared for his well-being. When an emergency arose, Felipe took my dog to the vet right away, stayed with him, and kept me fully updated. His communication was outstanding. He provided frequent updates, sent photos, responded quickly, and proactively raised concerns whenever something needed attention. In terms of home care, Felipe kept the house in fantastic condition. He was respectful of the space, left everything clean and tidy, and even washed all the sheets and towels he used before my return (something he didn’t have to do, but did anyway, and I really appreciated it). If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, Felipe is exactly the kind of sitter you want. I’m incredibly grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely hire him again.”
About: I have 9 years of experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I’m a dog owner myself and will treat your pup with the same patience, care, and attention I give my own. I’m available for pet care throughout the week, with the exception of Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays due to my school schedule. I have flexible availability on my available days. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I follow all owner instructions closely and make sure pets are safe, supervised, and given plenty of attention.
“Emily was great! She stayed with my three cats and my dog from a Thursday through the weekend and all seemed happy and healthy when I returned from my trip. She also left my house at least as good as I left it, which is always super appreciated, especially after a long travel day and busy work trip. I will definitely try to book with Emily again in the future.”

I do part time work which I can pretty much choose when I work. So when I commit to you I’m completely committed and will have total attention to your pets I will care for your pets however you wish! If a fenced in yard I will take them out if they need to be walked. I will walk them if they have a doggie door they go out the doggie door. I will take them out as much as they need to go out.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrenceville
We recently had her stay with our two elderly fur babies, who both have daily medications, while we were away on a family trip, and felt they were in the best hands! She is great with updates and pictures while you are away. Came home to 2 happy relaxed dogs, will definitely book with Maria Abigail again!!
Desiré was fantastic! I really appreciate sitters like her who proactively communicate their schedules and keep you updated on when they’ll return. She sent updates throughout the day and was always quick to respond whenever I checked in. I would highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again. Holly absolutely loves her—you can instantly tell she’s a true dog person!🩵
It was my first time leaving my cat for a vacation. Ashley listened to my requests and responded promptly. Her updates were always top tier. She and her son tag teamed at nights to make sure my cat would have a good time (plenty of playing time) and not feel lonely. Her bowls were kept hygienic and water replenished as needed. Glad I found her to look after my cat!
It was the first time we left our pets in the care of a person outside the family, but Eric was really kind, answered all our questions and attended to our instructions, our pets (3 dogs and 1 ferret) were very well taken care of, he loved and shared with them. I really recommend it and I will use your services again when I require it.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lawrenceville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lawrenceville on Rover is $52.18 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 4,639 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lawrenceville. 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 Lawrenceville 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 Lawrenceville 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 Lawrenceville 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
