“We went out of town just after Christmas and needed a dog sitter. We were very pleased to come home to a happy, healthy pup, we had great communication the whole time and received a set of pictures and updates every evening. We will be using Maria Abigail‘s dog sitting service again!”
“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!”
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.
“Aaliya was fantastic. For our initial meeting before the job, she came over and stayed and chatted with me for over an hour. I felt very comfortable around her (as did my pets), and I felt good about her staying in my home for the weekend. She was super punctual and communicative (lots of photo and video updates!), and she left my house at least as good as it was when I left, if not better. Without hesitation, I would book with Aaliya again!”
“Eric took great care of my 4 babies while I was away for surgery. He made a stressful trip more manageable for me, knowing I had a reliable and experienced sitter who could stay in my home where my pets feel most safe. I've had situations in the past where my trips were disrupted due to my dogs anxious barking, but Eric won my babies over and had no issues at all with them. I'd highly recommend Eric.”
“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.”
“Alexis was what I needed!!! She came on time! She did a great job communicating with me! She was very attentive to my fur son! She played with him, gave him attention, and was just there for him overall. She followed my schedule that I left for him, too! She returned my home to me the same way I’d left it for her, which was appreciated. She is truly a sweetheart and my son absolutely adored her! I’m grateful I took a chance, and will continue to use her services again as long as she’s on the platform.”
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.
“We found Cheyenne on here last minute needing somebody to watch our fur babies while we went out of town. The dogs loved her and she kept us updated throughout the day on how they were doing. Highly recommend using Cheyenne if you need somebody great to take care of your dogs needs.”
“Leslie goes above and beyond! Our babies and our home were in great hands. They absolutely loved her from the meet and greet. She is timely and so friendly and professional. We were very comfortable leaving her overnight with our little darlings. We will look forward to our next booking.”
“Aubrey was great! She provided regular updates, left the home in perfect condition and made me feel at ease knowing Theodore was cared for. I will absolutely book again!”
“Morgan is an amazing house and dog sitter. She treated my dogs like her own children and sent LOTS of pics and videos to prove it. I came home to happy dogs and a clean house. They can't wait for her next visit!”
“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: My family got our first dog when I was four, but I asked and received my own dog when I was 11. I was raised on a working farm, and the inside pets included non normative pets like mice, gerbils, guinea pigs, a ferrets, multiple dogs and cats. As an adult I've had the opportunity to care for multiple reptiles and snakes (frogs, toads, hissing cockroaches, tarantula, non venomous snakes, and leopard geckos) and also increased my knowledge of chinchillas, hedgehogs and many other non standard pets. I love all animals and my greatest strength is the vast array of knowledge and eagerness to learn and research better care for all species of pets! As of right now I am a recent transplant to Georgia and my current schedule is completely open. I am looking for both one time sitting opportunities and open to new repeat clients for business hours walks, potty breaks, med checks and feedings. I will always focus on making sure your pet is as happy and comfortable as possible. I personally have one dog who loves to meet other dogs, but is also happy being left to sleep in her bed all day. She is helpful for training reactive dogs as she doesn't mind noisy dogs and doesn't react to them at all. I love taking photos of dogs in their joy, so I will continually try to go the extra mile for your fur baby.
“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!!”
About: I currently have three cats and a dog! Im very well rounded in terms of animal care, safety, and enrichment. I am a nursing school student so I can promise you safety is my top priority if your baby needs special care, I can safely administer injectable medications if needed. I am free day or night. I will always work with you to accommodate even the most last minute scheduling. I am currently available reliably Friday-Monday with occasional by request times available on other days. Message me if you are unsure! I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes, administer medications if needed, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have worked with Senior and disabled animals so I am able to provide a well rounded range of care. I can also send regular photo and video updates because I know how scary it can be to trust someone in your home with your babies. You will never be left wondering under my care. For cats- Having 3 of my own, I totally understand that every cat has a different personality! Whether your cat is social and loves attention or prefers space and a calm environment, I take the time to earn their trust and keep their routine consistent. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I I bring a lifetime of love for dogs and fresh energy to every furry friend I meet! I grew up with dogs and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and loved when their parents are away. What makes me special: • Flexible schedule - I work from home/have availability for extra attention and playtime • Genuine dog lover - Your pet won't just be watched, they'll be genuinely cared for and spoiled • Detail-oriented - I follow routines exactly and provide detailed updates with photos I'm excited to build lasting relationships with both pets and their families. Your dog's happiness and your peace of mind are my top priorities!" Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine with morning walks, midday play sessions, and evening cuddle time - your dog becomes part of my everyday life. Your dog's safety and comfort are my absolute priorities. My home features a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and exercise securely without any escape risks. Before any stay, I conduct a thorough meet-and-greet to ensure your pup gets along well with my two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having playmates.
“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!”
“Ashley was awesome! Followed all instructions without fail. Sent regular updates including pictures. Responded very quickly if I needed anything. As close to perfect as I could have asked for.”
“Ariel was an absolute delight. We met her prior to the visit and could tell right away it would be a great couple of days. We left two pages of notes and it didn't bother her one bit 😆 Super professional. She showed our babies all the same love they're used to.”

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!
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.
Felipe took care of our home and furry kids for almost two weeks, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He is incredibly responsible, dependable, and kind. Milo and Lulu clearly adored him—you could see it in the photos he shared with us. After reading his Rover reviews, it’s easy to see why Felipe is so highly rated. He is very respectful, neat, and tidy, and he kept our home in impeccable condition. He washed the bedding and towels used, which was such a thoughtful and much-appreciated gesture. Thank you Felipe! We were also lucky enough to spend some time with Felipe over a cup of tea or 2, and get to know him personally. He is a genuinely caring, smart and honest person, and we felt completely at ease knowing our home and furry kids were in his care. He is exactly the kind of person you want looking after your home and pets. In movie terms, I’d award Felipe an Oscar ⭐️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lawrenceville on Rover is $53.14 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,659 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.

- 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.
