“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received this weekend! Leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, but from the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious my babies were well cared for, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. When I came home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and genuine love shown to my pets. It’s clear that caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s something Rachel genuinely enjoys. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my fur babies!”
“Carla took amazing care of our puppies while we were away! She matched her schedule to their routine to help minimize their anxiety and was super communicative the whole time. She was amazing! 🤩”
About: Ive had pets my entire life, and my own dogs my entire adult life. I was a pet sitter in collage and have watched friends and families dogs for years! I currently work 5 days a week in Seagoville, but am avaliable after in the evenings and weekends! Particularly for nightly walks or evening nights out! I am experienced with walking dogs of all sized and leash skills. My own two dogs are pullers and high energy on a leash! I am more than comfortable feeding and administering oral medications!
“Ava watched our two babies for six days while we were out of town, and she also house sat for us. She did an amazing job!! One of our dogs is skittish around strangers but she warmed up to Ava very well. Ava sent at least 2-3 pup updates with pics every day and took great care of our home. Everything was in wonderful shape when we returned from our trip. We will definitely book Ava again next time!”
“Alice was amazing! Her communication throughout the day was stellar, she was always swift to respond my texts and sent photos and videos at consistent morning, afternoon evening milestones. All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.”
“Christy was amazing with my pup! She stayed in my home for the weekend to watch her. She was extremely attentive and loving with my girl - sent me tons of photos and videos the whole weekend. I never even had to ask! I'll definitely be using her again.. highly recommend!”
“Flor was the sweetest thing and is just so great with dogs. I have a big one too and she handled it so well. She kept me updated and sent pictures throughout her stay. We both enjoyed her company.”

“Courtney and John Francis were excellent! They took great care of our three cats and even watered the plants. We received photos and updates throughout our time gone even though we didn't have service the entire time. They vacuumed near the litter before we came home as well. We'd rebook with them any time and they seemed very cool when we met them in person! We'll definitely be using them as a resource in the future!”
About: I got a dog just recently and I love her as if she's my own daughter. I am a better person because of her, and I am so glad that I rescued her and gave her a home with so much love and attention. I do a lot of work at home stuff on my PC as well as a lot of Doordash, Instacart, etc. when I am not busy at home. I am very flexible and care about giving humans and animals a sense of safety when dealing with me. I tell them and show them what I do as well as have an open conversation about everything upfront. I honestly like getting to know people first before doing business.
“I was so pleased with Tania, would I book her again absolutely. I probably have to leave Kittycat no more than twice a year and so she is not use to having a person she doesn’t know live in her house, but Tania loved her and took care of her so well the pictures that Tania sent showed how Kittycat was completely comfortable and well looked after. Thank you again Tania.”
“Shawndreal recently house sat for my old, 13 year old dog. She did an amazing job! I needed a last minute house sitter, and Shawndreal exceeded my expectations. She met with my dog and me beforehand, and asked great questions, and I could tell she genuinely cared for my dog's well being. She took great care of my dog while I was away, and followed all of the supplement and medicine guidelines and even sent updates when they were completed. She took my dog on his required walks and sent pictures and updates. Shawndreal left the house just the way I left it, spotless. When I got home, my dog didn't leave her side, I felt a little jealous LOL. She was a great house sitter, and I'm truly thankful for her efforts. Will definitely use again.”

Kendra was amazing! Skipper and Flower loved her and she took such good care of them! She was great about sending me updates and pictures at least once a day. I could tell they were being loved well. Kendra also took great care of our home. She even washed the bedding in our guest room for me! That is above and beyond. I’m so thankful for her.
Jean-Carlo is an amazing person, animal love, caregiver - a true blessing for our family! We had never left Fini & Belfry before. JC met with us and our pups, immediately alleviating our fears. He arrived early on departure day, reviewed instructions and comforted us all. JC communicated and sent pics & videos thruout our time away. He totally accommodated Fini & Belfry's personalities, diets (cooking them eggs each morning!) medications, exercise and sleeping arrangements. We have a small farm. Not only did he care for our dogs, he tended to our horse, pony, cows and chickens! He even brought his own tools to pickup dog hair from carpet, the house was cleaner than we left! He went way above & beyond! We whole-heartedly recommend Jean-Carlo to care for your family!
We have used Andrea a few times for our 3 fur babies and she has always been extremely accommodating and friendly. All 3 of our dogs have different temperaments and she handles them accordingly and gives them all the love while we are away. She’s always good with dogs that are not too happy about having a pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lawson is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $56 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.

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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
