About: I was a veterinary assistant for 6 years and I have lots of experience caring for dogs as well as cats. I have done pet sitting, dog walking, grooming . . . I am now a stay-at-home mom with two kids we live on a farm so we wake up early and go to bed late. That leaves us with lots of time to care for our animals. We love them and we give them the best care possible! I do have a fenced yard that is 2 acres so dogs have plenty of room to run but since I have cattle panel fencing, small dogs would be able to get through. Therefore I watch them closer and have runs outside also, we are not near any highways and live on a private road.
“Hannah took very good care of our pets! Our senior dog had some last minute health concerns that she was able to take on and handle through her stay. She managed all of our care requests and left our house in very clean condition. We will definitely book her again in the future!!”
About: I loved animals ever since I was a kid and raised and trained my dog Zephyr since he was a year old. I adore all animals care for two rodents of my own named Orchid and Meadow. I often petsit for my family and friends and have taken care of a wide variety of animals. I've taken care of pets of all ages from puppies to my senior dog who currently has from dementia. I am very patient and licensed CNA so I know how to handle a mess. I am a freshman in college though my classes are very light. I'm free after 9am on Mondays and Wednesdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm free after 12:15 though I can come in earlier anytime before 9, Fridays can vary for me but I'm typically free after 9-10 am though sometimes if I have an exam it might be an hour or so later though I can always make arrangements if necessary. I care for pets by following their routine, spending lots of time with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my client's homes and always clean up after the pets and leave everything as I found it. I After a procedure my dog needed to be crate trained so I know how to handle that.
“Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have always taken care of my families dogs and my friends dogs. I always make sure they are treated good and safe with me. I'm not a busy person so I have plenty of time to play with and watch your fur babies. I'm available from 7:00AM to 6:00PM or later if needed I have 2 dogs at home that I love very much. I will easily be able to crate your dog if needed. I will always play with your animals, feed them the right amount of food and make sure they get medicine if needed
“Olivia was absolutely fantastic while we were on a family vacation! She took care of Stevie and loved her as her own while we were gone. She also took great care of our house and left it cleaner than when we left for vacation. We will absolutely book services again with Olivia and highly recommend her.”
“We were so happy to have Erika come stay with our dog! She was professional, easy to work with, and clearly loves taking care of dogs. She sent frequent photos and updates, and was quick to respond to our texts. And her flexible schedule meant our dog didn’t need to be left for any long stretches. We look forward to having Erika come back again!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it seemed the family dogs always gravitated toward me. I can’t imagine life without them! I’ve been caring for other’s dogs ever since I got my drivers license. The first dog I watched for a family (a beautiful Alaskan husky) had diabetes and required diabetic shots twice a day. Even though it hurt to have to give him shots, I loved having the opportunity to care for dogs other than my own. Since then I’ve had the opportunity of being the go-to dog watcher for several families with several different dog (and cat) breeds. I will make every effort to give your dog the same care that I was able to give Skyler and the rest of the dogs I’ve had the great fortune of watching and taking care of. There’s not many things that give me more joy than spending time with dogs. Now that I have more time on my hands in my 30’s I have recently gotten connected with volunteering with KC Pet Project. Dogs deserve all the love in the world. I currently work from home Monday and Friday so in addition to the weekend, it opens up availability to be present for the doggie. I’m in the office Tuesday - Thursday but available for morning/evening and quick bathroom breaks over lunch. I have a fenced in backyard and ample space inside the house to make your dog comfortable. I can crate if needed, but also have rooms that can function as “dog” rooms for the periods when I need to leave the house. I have my own Belgian Malinois, who mostly does her own thing. :)
“Kyle was fantastic with our two larger dogs and our aloof cat! He was super responsive and kept us in the loop on the happenings around our house while he house/petsat the weekend. Would definitely rebook him again!”
About: I will modify and add $45 to care for places 30-60 miles past Gallatin, MO. If you know more of people that want care close to you, I can split the fee! Trustworthy and dependable, I have taken care of a wide variety of animals animals over the years, including dogs, outdoor cats, ragdoll cat, birds, chickens, horses, and calves. I understand every animal has its own unique needs and deserves compassionate care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, drop in visits, overnight stays, or giving medication, I will provide reliable care. I have a flexible schedule I can work around for pets staying here, sleeping on the floor or outside. I will be gone during the day some days of the week, if they are ok left alone. I work at a greenhouse 3 days a week and could take puppies under a year with me to work. And also most dogs if theyre used to be out and about. I would accept puppies under a year not fixed. I have 2 ziplines in my yard and your pets are more than welcome to stay here if they would be OK with those accommodations. I can pick up and drop off typically would suit best in the evenings. I would also stay in your home so they could stay in familiar territory, but i have a greenhouse job and will be gone a good part of the day. And also work prn at an assisted living but il try to wait till 2 weeks till to pick up shifts. Cuz thats my requirement for bookings. I also have a 1 year old Aussie Mountain Doodle that will be coming with me. He loves meeting new friends. If youre worried about him getting along we can do a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting you and your pets. My profile shows Kingston, it's because I work in Kearney and am around there a lot. So dropping by between Jamesport and Kearney will be easy. I had to move my town to get the area I wanted. I have a flexible schedule and can work around it to help care for your pets, for drop in visits, walks, feeding, playtime or stays. I will care for your pets and home as if it were my own. I have stayed in multiple air bnbs and have a high rating as a traveler.
“My dog immediately gravitated towards Caitlin, and he had an amazing time with her. She really understands compassionate animal care and understands animals. Great communicator, and very thorough. Highly recommend”
“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”
“Joshua did a great time with our dogs. In the life before we owned her, one of our dogs was traumatized by something and is quite stressed in new situations but Joshua did his best to accommodate her needs. The other two more well balanced dogs warmed up to him very quickly. We also greatly appreciated his communication and the pictures and videos he sent our way. Thanks, Joshua!”
“Daniel was fantastic! He took amazing care of both our dogs, cats, and house. It was the most stress free experience I’ve ever had on vacation. He sent daily updates and photos, tidied up the home, and followed our dog’s routine making it a seamless transition. Our rescue who struggles to be around new people warmed up to him quickly. I highly recommend Daniel! We will definitely be using him again for any future trips.”
About: I grew up with three dogs and trained them to do the basics. I love animals of all sizes, not just dogs. I don’t have much experience with other animals but would love to learn and be as much help as possible! I currently work a full time job however my hours have been cut to part time hours so my availability is pretty open. Unfortunately my job is not a set 9-5 Mon. through Fri. There is a mid sized dog park at my apartment complex however I cannot bring my animal inside my apartment. I can definitely travel to your home and take care of your animal is one long stay or visits. And I also love taking dogs on walks so that is no problem as well.
“Lily was absolutely fantastic! She kept us updated with photos and texts and made sure that all of our animals felt comfortable the whole time she stayed. I will absolutely be using her next time we go out of town!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 425 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lawson. 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 Lawson 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 Lawson 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 Lawson 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.
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.
