“Morgane was very communicative and clean in our home. We were able to easily trust her with our little guy (who can sometimes be a bit anxious). We can tell he was very comfortable with her!”
About: I have been walking & taking care of dogs for years! I am comfortable with any age dog and have experience with younger dogs, including puppies. My schedule is currently pretty open, and I have availability most days of the week to walk or sit your dog! I am open to walking or sitting dogs, including overnight if needed. I fully understand letting someone into your home to watch your dog can be nerve wracking so I like to make sure to ask the necessary questions to ensure I am doing everything to the homeowners standard.
“Amber really helped us with a last minute overnight stay with our two girls! A friend was supposed to watch them for us and canceled at the last minute. Amber came over for a meet and free before work so we could meet her before we left the next morning. She kept in good contact with us and sent lots of photos so we knew how our fur babies were doing so we didn’t worry. She took great care of the house and very responsive! Would definitely recommend her and have her watch the girls again!”
About: I have worked at a Veterinary Hospital for about 5 years, working to keep their experience as comfortable as possible, along with growing up with cats, dogs, and farm animals.I do work another job so for house/dog sitting I would be getting to the location usually between 6:30-7ish depending on location, so keep this in mind when considering booking me While I work full time my schedule is set so there will not be likely to have unexpected changes giving your animals a good structure to work with I can come to your location to let your dogs out/take them for a walk, as well as feed them and get in playtime while keeping them in a space they feel comfortable.
“Ievet was fantastic with our two pugs and kept us well informed about how they were doing throughout the weekend. We received lots of pictures and had tremendous piece of mind that our dogs were safe and well while we were attending an out of state funeral. Our planned dog sitter cancelled on us at the last minute and Ievet was quick to respond to our request.”
About: I have experience caring for an elderly dog who required daily medication and eye drops, so I understand the extra patience and attention that senior pets may need. I’m comfortable following medication schedules and ensuring pets receive the care they need. My dog is also very needy and loves constant attention, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs who want extra cuddles, companionship, and reassurance. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, and I’m happy to give them the time, patience, and attention they deserve. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, especially on my days off. I currently work 10-hour shifts on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I am generally unavailable for extended daytime visits in those days. I have Thursdays and weekends off, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and longer stays. I’m also happy to work around my schedule when possible and communicate clearly with pet owners about my availability. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I would make sure they receive the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and happy as possible by sticking to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else their pet needs. I’m also happy to give pets plenty of attention and companionship, especially if they like having someone.
About: I have taken care of various different fur babies my whole life. From my grandma’s elderly diabetic cat, to many little baby kittens. Making animals feel safe and cared for makes me feel so fulfilled. I also have been bathing and doing regular grooming since I was old enough to understand how to. I’ve taken in strays and helped regime them or reunite them. I also took in and nursed back to health a kitty that I witnessed get hit by a car. Some special skills that I possess would be I’m very patient loving person who has a very big heart when it comes to animals and I can’t wait to have a future caring for them. I work part-time and do an online education program I’m pretty much free for the rest of day. Currently working on getting my license so I can be more reliable with transportation to get there. I will respect your home and take care of your fur Babies in the comfort of their home listening to anything you ask of me. while we wait for your arrival
“Jackie was great with my new puppy Otto, she was on time and communicated throughout the say. I will definitely be using Jackie again when I need somebody to watch my pup! Thanks Jackie!”
“Matt was very personable and my dogs both loved him! They took to him right away and he was knowledgeable on how to handle greeting and getting to know an anxious dog. Will definitely use him again! Thanks Matt!”
About: Years of experience! Former kennel tech/daycare manager. I can care for all types of animals big and small. I have knowledge in the field of puppy care elder care and medication administration orally and injectable. Have cared for many diabetic animals and know exactly how they should be cared for/medicated. Im an on call contract bus driver. My schedule can change frequently but im usually only gone for a few hours at a time. My schedule can be very flexible around your pets needs! I'll be sure to follow whatever your schedule/routine may be with your pets to the very best of my ability. I'm very open with communication so anything I think I may not be able to do I won't be afraid to let you know.
About: I’m very patient with pets and good at following routines, schedules, medications, feeding times, walks, and giving extra attention to anxious or senior dogs. I also make sure owners feel comfortable by sending regular updates and photos throughout the stay so they know their pets are safe, happy, and cared for 🤍 Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I'm a nursing student, and I'm primarily available Monday through Friday. I enjoy staying active, so I love incorporating walks, playtime, and quality time with pets into my day. I always make sure each pet receives the attention, care, and consistency they deserve while following the owner's instructions and routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they are fed on time, walked regularly, given plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort, and I always keep the home clean and respected. I also provide photo updates and communication so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
“Tasia & her partner did a nice job with our Jerry. Jerry warmed up to them immediately during the meet & greet. They took him for a great walk while watching him & followed our instructions. They were very neat with our home as well. We would book them again.”
About: Every animal has a story. Mine began long before I ever thought of pet care as a service — it began with connection. From the shy pup curled in the corner to the elderly dog whose slow steps spoke of trust earned, I’ve learned that every animal communicates in its own language of wagging tails, soft purrs, and trusting eyes. Over decades, I’ve walked alongside puppies discovering grass for the first time and supported senior dogs whose gentle steps reflect a lifetime of loyalty. With every house sit, I’m not just caring for pets — I’m honoring the bond you share with them, giving reassurance through consistent routines, heartfelt playtimes, and quiet moments of comfort. What sets me apart is not only my experience but my ability to read body language, anticipate needs, and bring peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pets are the rhythm of my day — they shape my mornings with excitement and my evenings with calm connection. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to be present for walks when the air is crisp, for quiet cuddle time when hearts need soothing, and for check-ins that give owners peace of mind. I simply ask for a day’s notice so I can plan the best moments with your beloved companion. Your pet’s safety is my promise. In my one-story home filled with warmth and gentle energy, two rescue cats have taught me the art of patience, play, and respect for personal space. Our quiet neighborhood offers leash-friendly strolls and ample paths to explore at a comfortable pace. I ensure a calm, structured, and loving environment that supports routine, comfort, and trust.
“Kourtney did such a great job with our pups. Her communication was excellent and she sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day, which made it easier to be away.”
“Lauren did a wonderful job watching our older pup, Lucy and our new puppy, Ashe! She was timely, communicative and a pleasure to work with. We will absolutely use her again in the future. We highly recommend booking with Lauren!”
“Richard took great care of our pets and home while we were away. Great communication throughout our stay. Very responsible and trustworthy and he set our mind at ease while we were on vacation. We definitely look forward to booking him on future stays and highly recommend Richard as a sitter.”
“Daniel stayed at our home for 4 days and took excellent care of our girl Chloe and the house itself. His relaxed nature is perfect for our dog and he was extremely conscientious, checking in with us now and then to let us know that things were going well and leaving our dog happy and our home in excellent condition. His communication was prompt and clear. Definitely a 5 star experience.”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 12. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in their homes. I take that trust seriously. I follow your pet's routine closely, keep their environment calm and consistent, and send photo updates so you're never left wondering how they're doing. Whether it's a high energy dog who needs a good run or a senior cat who prefers quiet company, I adjust my approach to fit each pet's personality and needs. My focus is always on safety, comfort, and making sure your pet feels at ease while you're away. You'll come back to a happy animal and a home that's been well looked after. My work is fully flexible, so I have plenty of availability for overnight stays any day of the week. For walks and drop-in visits, I'm available Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I work around your pet's normal routine to keep them comfortable and on track while you're away. When I stay in your home, it is extremely important to me that I prioritize keeping it clean and treating it as I would treat my own.
“Alexis went above and beyond to make our trip stress-free while caring for our three dogs and cat. She was always quick to respond to texts and was happy to do multiple meet-and-greets so everyone felt comfortable before the stay. She followed all of our instructions and clearly took great care of our pets. She even went the extra mile around the house (laundry done, etc.), which was a very appreciated surprise. We’d happily book Alexis again!”

Rickey watched our senior dog and home while we were out of the country. He was professional, courteous and provided excellent communication and also pictures for the duration. It made it a lot easier to not have to worry about our dog and home because we knew everything was being taken care of.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lewiston on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 610 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lewiston. 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 Lewiston 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 Lewiston 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 Lewiston 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.
