“Shereen is one of the best dog and home sitters I've ever had! She bonded with my two min pins right away and took excellent care of all their needs. I trust her completely with my home and with my precious ones. So glad I found her.”

“So happy we had her stay at the house with our girls! They were happy when we got home and everything in the house looked great! I appreciate the detail reports and pictures as this was the first time leaving our girls for this long and without family taking care of them. Such a great job thanks! They are looking forward to seeing you soon!”

“KIMBERLY was FANTASTIC with our 2 schnauzers Prince & Duke. Despite Dukes obstinacy she handled him with so much care and allowed him to take his time to get to know her. We were away 7 nights while Kimberly stayed in our home with our Boys! It gave us comfort as Kimberly texted and sent videos and pictures of everything that was going on. We really appreciated that. Actually, we considered that as going above and beyond for the care of our schnauzers. We highly recommend Kimberly for any of your animals needs and we would definitely call on her again in the future. Thank you so much Kimberly for everything!”

“Mr. Jason was absolutely amazing in taking care of my husky. He followed all my instructions and went above and beyond, taking my boy on walks down the trail. If you want someone who will be attentive to your dogs needs and provide them with all the love, cuddles, and attention, this is the sitter to book. I have booked several sitters before on this app, but I dont think my boy has ever loved and missed a sitter before. He definitely misses hanging out with mr Jason.”

“Jane was EXCELLENT!! She went above and beyond to make sure she and Tally got along before committing to house sitting with her, provided regular updates throughout the weekend, and then stayed past her scheduled time until we arrived home after Tally got into something in the backyard and wasn't feeling well. We will definitely be using Jane again in the future and cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

About: Hi, I'm Lantz! I am an animal lover and have taken care of many different pets over the years, ranging from dogs to cats, and even smaller animals like rabbits. I like to volunteer at the Human Society on my off time. From feeding to walking, even to bathing them(given the materials). and nurturing them with affection and care. I enjoy spending time with and taking care of animals and watching their growth. I am typically available more nearby to my home, but can easily make exceptions given the time. I am available every day during the week, and almost every weekend as well! If you need a relaxed and responsible dog walker or sitter (or for any other animals too) I'm the one to call! Thank you for your time! I am available most if not all days of the week including weekends to play with and sit your pet, and can work with you to fit you and your pets scheduling needs. I will take care of your pets with upmost care, and play with them as if they were my own. Our pets are like our family, and because of that we have to be sure that we can trust people coming around and taking care of them. I can assure you that as a pet owner myself, that there is nothing more cherished than our fluffy family members.

I was so worried leaving Ziggy for the first time, especially with his separation anxiety, however, I could tell before I even left for vacation that he had already warmed up to her. She kept in constant contact, and I was able to see both Bridget and Ziggy happy and having fun. She watched them in our home, and our home was perfect when we came home. Awesome Awesome sitter!”

Blaize was an excellent house and pet sitter. She was even willing to get to know our bearded dragon. - a pet she’s never encountered before. Over the 2 nights she was here, she sent frequent pics and short notes. She arrived on time in the first day and stayed until the agreed time on the last day. Thanks Blaize!

Sriya was amazing! I needed a very last minute dog sitter and the day I inquired she was able to meet and greet my dog and I. Her communication was top notch 🙌🏻 She sent lots of pics and vids through the days I was gone which was so appreciated. She stayed in my home and did a wonderful job caring for my angel baby. 10/10 recommend. I will be using her for future bookings.

Barbra took such wonderful and attentive care of my cat (who loves lots of attention and care!), she sent lots of updates and photos and I never once worried about Boo not being in great hands while I was away. My cat was in her lap within a matter of hours into her stay and I am pretty sure seldom left. I loved coming home to the the diary of Boo’s days while Barbra was here — I know Boo would love to have Barbra watch her again and I would definitely recommend her work to anybody!

Alexis is the best dog sitter I’ve ever hired. Here’s an insight into how awesome she is- our last trip, we arrived home at 2am. Alexis texted at 1am to make sure we would be home, otherwise she would surely go back to check on our two dogs. The middle of the night. After her booking was over. I trust her, and my dogs love her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lealman

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Lealman is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $80 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.

As of November 2026, there are 4,018 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lealman. 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 Lealman 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 Lealman 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 Lealman 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lealman. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
