“Cassandra is a warm, kind, and responsive person. She really enjoys your pets and you’ll get some cute stories about their antics while you’re away! I was reassured about my cats being ok and cared for, as well as entertained and, the most important!, they got their treats. So I’m not really sure how much they really missed me!”
“Sofia did a wonderful job caring for our personable cat and elderly high-maintenance little dog in our home. She was punctual, asked great questions, and hit that sweet spot of keeping us comfortably informed about how things were going back home without bombarding us with too many updates. We returned home to two content pets who were happy to see us and a house that looked pretty much exactly as we had left it. Our dog, especially, has developed pretty severe separation anxiety as she ages and she was in GREAT spirits when we came home. We hope to book Sofia again in the future...in fact, we might even schedule our next travel plans around her availability.”
About: Growing up, we always had a dog or two and cats in the house. Each one, a member of the family that are loved and spoiled. I now have a year and a half old English chocolate lab named Errol and two cats, Pepper and Chester who are 12 and 6 years old. I have two teenage daughters, and my youngest works for a dog training and daycare taking care of dogs. Our family loves our pets and I and am excited to share that love with yours! I work full time from home 8:30 am-5:00 pm. I have limited time mid day that I use to do drop-in visits and short walks, and am otherwise available before or after my shift. I work full time from home during the day and my best general availability on the weekends. I can certainly make arrangements for mid day visits or care for a dog at my home during the day. I am always happy to rearrange things, even during the week to meet your family’s needs. I have a large yard and a chocolate lab of my own to keep your dog company. We live to play outside, for walks in the woods, and run around the yard playing in the doggy pool. For more adventurous dogs with some woody experience, our property is on the Lamprey River with access to play and swim.
“Heather was great with our dogs! Our dogs loved her from the start - one dog even insisted on sleeping on her pillow for a few days after she left. She watched our two, 80lb dogs and seemed to handle them very well. She sent us pictures of the dogs throughout our trip and took them to their favorite park. Heather stayed in our house for the five days we were gone and left it as clean, if not cleaner than when we left. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Chandler! So glad I found Chandler on Rover.com. My dogs were happy and very content when I arrived home. He was great about sending dog pictures and letting me know how they were doing. On a side note our house looked perfect as well. He is one very neat and clean sitter!! I will be calling Chandler again!! An thank you for the very fair rate for more than one dog! Thank you again from Messi & Chloe!!?”

“From the moment we met Michela and saw her interact with our labs and kitty we knew she would take great care of our pets. She surpassed our expectations. We received daily updates and photos. It was a delight to have Michela help us. We look forward to possibly having her stay again.”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I have just completed my first year of Veterinary Technician school and have done 3 different internships in the field. I am very well versed with simple care, medications, and most importantly love for the animals! My schedule fluctuates very frequently as I have a part time job and im also completeing an internship, however I can easily work my schedule around whatever the animals need! I have a fenced yard with a very friendly pup at home. I can also let your pet in and out of crates, give treats and/or medications, take them on walks, and anything else they may need.
About: About Me 🐾❤️ As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your beloved pets. You can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring every step of the way. I’ll treat your fur babies like my own, following their routines, respecting your instructions, and giving them plenty of love, patience, and personalized care while you’re away. I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals, including farm animals, dogs, cats, and parrots. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy! Today, my home is filled with my two dogs—a 7-year-old Plott Hound and a 4-year-old Golden Retriever—as well as my African Grey parrot. We recently lost our sweet orange kitty, Jack, and he will always hold a special place in our hearts. ❤️🐱 I absolutely love being outdoors, so if your pup enjoys adventures, I’d be happy to take them for a walk or hike and give them fun, enriching time outside. I’m also comfortable caring for pets in snow, rain, or heat, so the weather won’t stop me from providing reliable care! ☀️🌧️❄️ Most importantly, I’ll take the time to get to know your pets, understand their personalities and routines, and keep you updated so you can feel confident and worry-free while you’re away. Your pets’ safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I would be honored to care for them. 🐶🐱🐴🦜💕 My Availability 🐾 To start, while I build my clientele, I’m available early mornings, after 4 PM on weekdays, weekends, and holidays! ❤️ I’m excited to meet some amazing new pets and their families and hopefully become someone you can count on whenever you need a little extra help caring for your fur babies. 🐶🐱🐾 Your pets’ safety and comfort are my top priorities. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I have two dogs and an African Grey parrot, so I understand how important it is to keep a safe, calm, and clean environment for all animals. I would always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special instructions before caring for them. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your home with the same respect I would expect in my own. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your pets’ routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident and comfortable knowing your pets are being cared for by someone who genuinely loves animals. 🐶🐱🐴🦜💕
About: I have had dogs my whole life, all different breeds with all different needs. My current dog lives with seizures and continuously needs attention, meds, and different foods, so I understand that all dogs need special care, and lots of love! My schedule varies, but I am actively looking to make extra money over the summer, so I will do my best to make bookings work! If visiting your home to care for your pup, I can take them on a walk, play with them, feed them, clean up any accidents if necessary, or give them meds if needed! I want to care for them just the same as you would.
“Grace was fantastic! She was warm, bubbly, and instantly connected with our dogs—they were snuggling with her before we even left the garage. She was incredibly flexible and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. She gave us so much peace of mind, especially with our 14-year-old senior dog. We’d love to have her back anytime!”
About: Hi there — I’m a dedicated, experienced pet sitter with 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to our pets—every dog has their own routines, quirks, comfort levels, and needs, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes your pup feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful, shy and cautious, older and in need of a slower pace, or has specific behavioral or medical needs, communication is everything. Please share any concerns, routines, triggers, fears, or special requests ahead of time—we’ll work together to make their stay as stress-free and personalized as possible. My home offers a large yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of love, structure, and attention. I’m also a mom to two amazing kids (ages 5 and 7) who have been raised around animals and are very respectful of pet boundaries, body language, and personal space. For overnight stays, I do recommend bringing your dog’s crate if they’re crate-trained or may need a familiar, secure space for bedtime or decompression. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for—while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I can do overnights Wednesday Thursday and Fridays! Just reach out to me, schedule updated weekly for other services - overnights stay the same. Thanks! Your pet - your rules! I can play, snuggle, walk, feed, bathe your pet. I can crate your pet if requested. What you say goes!
About: I provide attentive, loving care to animals while their owners are away. My responsibilities include feeding, walking, playtime, administering medication if needed, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I understand how important it is to maintain routines and build trust with each animal, ensuring peace of mind for both pets and their people. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I enjoy early and after work walks, scheduled feedings, and making time each day to give pets the attention they deserve. I am currently a bather and groomer at Petsmart. I care for pets in their home by feeding them at scheduled times, taking dogs on daily walks, cleaning litter boxes or cages, refreshing water bowls, giving medications as directed, and spending quality time playing, grooming, or just keeping them company to ease separation anxiety. I follow all instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine and comfort.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lee
Zach cleary took good care of the menagerie while we were away. The dogs and cats were calm, not anxious in any way, when we got home. Also, to my delight, my plants were happy and best of all, the house was clean. The only criticism I can come up with is that I'd have enjoyed a few more pictures. Much more important to me is that Zach actually cared, as I could tell when our flight was delayed and Zach made an extra trip back to the house to make sure everyone was okay.
Zachary was absolutely wonderful with Benny. He met with us twice before we went away. Our Golden Benny loved him. He sent us pictures daily to show us that Benny was happy. He followed all the instructions and when we got home the house was spotless. Everything was perfect. I would highly recommend Zachary.

The average cost of House Sitting in Lee is $89 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $100 per night.

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 Lee 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 Lee 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 Lee 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 Lee. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
