“Maria Abigail took the best care of Goose and Maggie, two very energetic GSPs. They got tons of time outside and lots of care and attention. Would highly recommend!”
“Emily did a excellent job of dog sitting my two dongs for a couple of nights. She is punctual, caring, responsive, and promt in sending pictures of the dogs through out the day. I would definetely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog 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.
“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!”
“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 awesome per usual. It was so incredible to be fortunate enough to have her again. Someone that knows our routines and little quirky and comical personalities of the furbabies. Her memory retention is impeccable & talking to her is like speaking to an old friend. I'm almost jealous seeing all the cute pictures and videos that she sends of them hanging out just having fun. It's definitely a piece of mind for me and an enjoyable occasion for the pups having her as their housesitter and friend.”
“Daniel is a rock star dog and house sitter! He took great care of our two dogs over the Christmas holiday and sent us updates with photos twice a day. When we returned, the house looked just like we left it and our dogs were happy and looked well cared for. We definitely plan to contact him for any future dog sitting needs.”
“Overall, Alexis did great with Stormee. From the pictures, Stormee seemed well taken care of and very comfortable. Alexis played with Stormee and cuddled with her. I also appreciate her communication about anything that came up, either with Stormee or the apartment. She also dealt with Stormee’s heart condition well.”
“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 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.”
“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!”
About: Highly experienced animal lover! I grew up taking care of everyone’s pets. Volunteered at animal shelters. worked with trusted housesitters taking care of loving pets. In the past, I traveled from Atlanta to other parts of the US to take care of loving pets.❤️ My schedule pretty much is totally flexible! 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. If they need to be eaten separately, which I’ve had to deal with I will do that. Some need to be walked and some don’t I’ve dealt with that. I’ve dealt with some with medications as well.
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.
About: I have had dogs all of my life and have volunteered at the Humane society. Wet noses and wiggle butts bring me joy and will spoil your fur baby as if they were mine. Currently available for walks and drop in services, throughout the week. I am flexible with dates and times, reach out if you have any questions. My services for now will include dog walks. My pets are spoiled rotten and well trained. I enjoy taking them to long walks at our local county parks and around my neighborhood.
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.
“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!!”
“Leslie sat for our two dogs and was not only amazing with our dogs but was also a gracious houseguest. She is warm, friendly, genuine and just a lovely all around person. I highly recommend her for your pups and we will certainly be repeat customers!!”
About: I'm a coffee shop manager, which means I'm up early, show up on time, and I'm trusted with keys, cash, and opening the store every morning. I'm also a gardener, so I'm outdoors in every kind of weather, and I'll treat your yard and home with care. At home I have a dog and two cats, so I'm comfortable with both. Whether your pup needs a good morning walk or your cats need someone calm and patient to feed them, scoop the litter box, and give them attention, I've got it covered. I've dog sat for friends and family many times, including caring for five pit bulls at once, so I'm used to handling a full house of dogs. I offer morning walks (perfect before your workday starts), evening drop-in visits for feeding, potty breaks, litter boxes, and play time, and overnight stays in your home when you travel. I'll send photos and a quick update after every visit so you never have to wonder how your pets are doing. I manage a coffee shop, so my days are busy but very predictable. I'm available most mornings for early walks before your workday starts, and on select evenings for drop in visits. I'm also available for overnight stays, especially on weekends. Send me your dates and I'll let you know right away if I can make it work. All of my care happens in your home, so your pets stay in the space they know best. I double check doors, gates, and locks every time I come and go. On walks I'll use the leash and gear you provide, or I can bring my own if you need me to. I'll follow your pet's feeding, medicine, and daily routine exactly as you describe, and I keep your vet's info and an emergency contact handy just in case. I have a dog and two cats of my own, so I know how to introduce myself calmly and give nervous pets time to warm up. You'll get photos and an update after every visit.
“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.”

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!!
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!

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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.
