“Jessica has been exceptional with my two high-maintenance dogs. They loved her from the first meet and greet. She has made our lives so much easier with letting the dogs out while I am at work. She is so kind and helpful and friendly and I am so thankful for her!”

“Lindsay (and her wonderful kids!) have been instrumental in helping me with my new puppy while I’m at work! He gets to play, socialize, and go potty! It can be scary booking someone you don’t know to come watch a beloved pet but Lindsay went out of her way to meet us before booking. We’ve been using her services now for quite a while, and I literally trust her with my dogs life :) I know Tango must love their visits because he always gets glowing reviews! Lindsay is quick to communicate and has been very reliable!”

“Oliver was super excited for his walk/visit with Kim. He had met her only once before for meet and greet but was totally at ease with her and was rather wiggly and very eager to visit. He has had some previous issues with separation anxiety and was so happy he forgot to be anxious! Lol! Would for sure recommend!!!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have over 30 years of experience caring for family pets. Feeding, walking, playing, and giving them lots of love has always been a natural part of my life. We don’t have any pets of our own right now, so we’re excited for the opportunity to love on and care for other people’s pets! Every pet is unique, and I’ll make sure yours feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own. We are business owners and a homeschool family with 4 animal loving kids without any pets of our own right now- we would love the opportunity to love on your pets when you can't! We have a mostly fenced in yard and a walking path! We enjoy being active and always choose pet friendly locations wherever we go! Our goal is to keep your pet feeling loved and safe when in our care! If you're open to children tagging along & your pup is comfortable with us we would love make this a family venture, but understand if that doesn't make sense for you!

About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I care for every dog as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at home. I have experience with a large, active German Shepherd and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. While I do have a resident dog, every pet's comfort and safety comes first. My home allows dogs to be separated when needed, and I'm happy to provide individual walks, feeding routines, and personalized attention so every dog has a positive experience. What sets me apart is my communication and attention to detail. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet's stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home where your pet is treated like family. I have a hybrid work schedule, which means I work from home several days each week and have flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and prioritize keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether it's morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience so your pet feels right at home. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get their energy out. I also have a friendly resident German Shepherd who enjoys other dogs, so guest dogs should be comfortable around larger breeds. That said, your pet's safety and comfort always come first. My home is set up so dogs can be separated if needed, and I always supervise introductions and interactions. I'm happy to provide individual walks, feed according to your dog's normal schedule, administer oral medications if needed, and accommodate crate routines if that's what your dog is used to. I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. We have a toddler in our home (who has grown up with our dog and is respectful), so guest dogs should be comfortable around young children. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and family members.

About: Hi, I’m Amelia — lifelong animal lover, professional cuddler, enthusiastic dog-walker, and firm believer that every pet deserves to be treated like the VIP they are. 🐾 Whether your pup wants to run around the park until their tongue is on the ground, your kitty prefers a quiet afternoon of cuddles, or your pet’s idea of fun is simply having someone around to keep them company, I’m here for it! I love animals of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and levels of chaos. I’ll happily match their energy — from adventure buddy to couch companion — and make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and treats (where permitted, of course!). Your pets are family, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I'm always outdoors and I love exploring new parks. I have a flexible work schedule and I'm always up early. Whether it's early morning walks, lunch time to run around the park, or an evening stroll to get some of that energy out, I get joy out of being outside and being active, and I will bring your pet with me and we'll have a blast. First and foremost, I respect your rules in terms of indoor, outdoor or outside time. I always clean up after your pets, whether it's outside or in the litter box. I make sure their water is always fresh and any stray food is cleaned up. I love to brush and snuggle, making sure your pet is getting the attention they need, especially when they're human is away.

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable pet lover in blaine who understands that pets are family. I’m here to give your dog or cat plenty of attention, patience, playtime, walks, and affection while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a drop in visit, feeding, cuddles, or someone to keep them company, I will follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your fur baby with the same care I would give my own. I have experience with my own animals and family and friends animals I start school October 5th and have lots of down time from 1pm-6pm so pet care fits in really well with my schedule. And I’m always looking for things to do. I always watch for body language and signs of animals being stressed or in uncomfortable situations and as soon as I notice anything odd I remove them from that situation.

About: I have had both cats and dogs all of my life. I have raised 2 litters of kittens, I have raised 2 puppies including fostering one. I have spent the last 2 years caring for my senior cat who needed extensive medication administration and monitoring daily; she also needed a special diet and many vet and urgent care visits. I have owned a variety of animals from a Snow Bengal, house cats, cocker spaniel, golden retriever, German shepherd, terrier mix, ferrets, and bunnies. I raised my cocker spaniel from a puppy and trained him. I do not currently have any animals. I live in a very quiet manor home with a walking path in my backyard. I absolutely love animals, and I hope to live yours while you are away. I currently work full time, M-F 8-4. I am close to home and can come home during my lunch break if needed. I spend my time home when I have a pet, ensuring it is receiving the attention it needs while you are away. I love to spend time outside hiking, biking, and hammocking. I live in a manor home and have a second floor balcony which is entirely surrounded by chicken wire. If you have a cat who likes to be outside, they can safely enjoy the sun there-only with your approval. I can walk animals, take them outside for the bathroom as needed. I am happy to take your dog to the dog park if you would like. My place has a secure entry, with 2 doors.

I have booked with Elizabeth twice now, and highly recommend her to take care of your babies. She is the first Rover sitter I have used and is an absolute delight! Her updates are thorough and make me feel so much more comfortable while I’m away. You can see she genuinely loves animals and I can trust that both my cat and home are in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lexington on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $28 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 5,778 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lexington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.

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.
