About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds for many years. As a dog owner and mom to teenage children, I'm used to dealing with whatever comes up. I'm always punctual, reliable, and I'll love your pets. I have several volunteer commitments, and teenage children, but I'm generally very flexible and can work with you to fit around your pets' needs. I can be there for the whole day, pop in for play and food, or go for long walks. I'm practical, reliable and always punctual. I'll leave your home as you left it and take such good care of your pets with whatever they need.
“Bex was awesome! She took care of my sick bulldog while i was away and kept me informed everyday on his condition. She even took him to the vet for me so he didn’t miss an appointment to be checked. I will happily request Bex to watch my fur babies again. Thank you, Bex!”

“Tyler was friendly and communicative. He was interested in our dogs habits and wanted to know her full routine so he could keep her comfortable while we were traveling. Tyler sent updates with pictures during his stay. We came home to a tidy house and a happy dog.”

“Angelika was absolutely wonderful while caring for my dog, Brie, and my home for five days. She is incredibly loving, responsible, and professional, and it was clear from the start that Brie was in the best hands. Throughout her stay, Angelika took exceptional care of Brie, giving her plenty of love and attention. I returned home to a happy dog, one who even looked for Angelika ! She also took amazing care of my home. We live close to the beach, and she even vacuumed before I returned, leaving everything spotless and beautifully cared for. That level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Angelika to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. She truly treats both your pets and your home with the utmost respect and care. I'll feel so confident to have her again”


About: Lifelong dog fan. I have always been the dog-sitter for coworkers and friends. When it comes to my family’s pets, I am the one who will walk and bathe the dogs. I've volunteered for a dog rescue project where I cared for a broad range of dogs. Big, small, young, old, nervous, or mellow - I have seen them all! I love obedience training and teaching dogs new tricks. I work part-time, so my availability varies.
About: Feel free to call me Elva! I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about five years, and I genuinely love spending time with them.🥹 I have two cats of my own, Cereal and Sesame. So I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I also have experience caring for seniors and understand the patience and extra attention they may need. I’m happy to feed fur babies, play with them, take them on walks, clean up after them, or simply keep them company while you’re away. I’ll treat your fur babies with the same care and love I give my own.💕 I’ll do my best to make sure they get lots of attention and feel safe, comfortable with me! My schedule is pretty flexible, so I usually have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I’m available throughout the week and can work around your fur baby’s usual routine. 🛁 Bathing & Grooming Add-On 🐾 I’m happy to provide bathing and basic grooming during House Sitting, Doggy Day Care, and Boarding! 💕 (DM to ask for more info!) Services can include: ✅ 🛁 Bathing ✅ 🪮 Brushing & basic coat grooming ✅ 🪮 De-shedding (based on your fur baby's coat type) ✅ ✂️ Nail trimming ✅ 💅 Nail filing & smoothing ✅ 👂 Ear cleaning ✅ 👁️ Eye & tear-stain cleaning ✅ 🐶🫧 Face & muzzle cleaning ✅ 🐱🫧 Chin & blackhead cleaning ✅ 🐾 Paw cleaning ✅ 🐾✂️ Paw-pad hair trimming ✅ ✂️ Sanitary hair trimming (based on your fur baby's hair type) ✅ 🧶 Minor detangling ✅ 🪥 Teeth brushing ✅ 🦷 Basic oral hygiene with pet-safe products ✅ 🐱 A gentle cat wrap can be used when needed for grooming or teeth brushing (we all know how much cats "love" getting their teeth brushed 😂) ✅ 🐶🐱 Dental treats afterwards ༄ Drying for dogs: I currently do not have a professional pet dryer. For larger dogs, please provide a suitable blow dryer/drying tool if one is needed. 🫧🧴༄ For cats, baths will generally be done around midday so they have plenty of time to naturally dry afterward. Weather permitting and only in a safe, secure setting, they can relax in their carrier/enclosure outdoors or indoors while drying naturally. Cats will also usually continue grooming their own coat afterward. 🐱☀️ Available with: ✓ 🛏️ House Sitting ✓ 🐾 Doggy Day Care ✓ 🏠 Boarding I’ll make sure your fur babies feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow whatever routine they’re used to, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or just hanging out with them. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how they’re doing! 🐾 Boarding & Doggy Day Care only: Although I have two cats of my own, your fur baby will stay in a separate room and will not have any contact with them. To keep every pet safe and healthy, I kindly ask that all boarding pets be up to date on vaccinations and deworming. :)
“Adelaide did an amazing job watching over our dog and cat! We were away for 5 days on vacation and Adelaide made it easer being away from them for so long. We knew they were in good hands!.. Will definitely be booking her again!”

About: A lifelong love for animals has lead me to professionally working in Veterinary medical centers and Shelters. I am an Adoptions Counselor for the San Diego Humane Society. I am Fear Free Certified, trained in proper husbandry and handling for a range of species, and educate new owners on such. I am available all day Mondays and Tuesdays, Thursday through Sunday mornings and evenings for drops ins and walks. With overnights I am flexible as long as communication and time permit. I adore taking pets on walks or out to play! I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes. I prefer to pet sit in an animal’s own environment for their same. It is already stressful to be away from their family and staying in their homes is helpful.
“Sometimes he does it in the backyard. Before the walk. I’m really glad to hear he’s doing well. And having fun. I’ll be heading home and arriving around… I can’t remember, maybe around eight or 8:30 PM. But no worries whenever you have to takeoff. He’ll be fine. Thanks again! Talk to you soon.”

“I cannot say enough great things about Sophia. The first time I met her, she just was full of positive energy and kindness. Her love and passion for dogs is obvious! I consider my dog, Jack, my fourth child. He's my baby, so leaving him when I go out of town is especially tough. Knowing he's with Sophia gives me so much comfort. She treats him like he's her own, which makes me happy. While I was away, she fed him, took him on walks in the neighborhood and to the park. She bathed him, played chase with him, and brought special toys for him to play with, too. I received thorough updates and fun videos. I trust her completely and highly recommend her to take care of your sweet pet. Also, she asked a lot of questions, so she was comfortable with Jack's eating habits and schedule and daily routine. I will have no hesitation asking Sophia to take care of Jack again. And, I know he loves her, too!”

“Ana was great with Lucie! Lucie injured her leg before we left, and Ana made sure she stayed on her meds and rested while keeping me updated! She left our place very clean as well👍🏻.”

“Rima was amazing! She took really great care of our fur baby and our house. We never really leave our dog alone or with anyone else that’s why I was a little worried how she’s going to be. Also, our dog sometimes gets anxious around new people, but Rima was super sweet and our fur baby bonded with her really quick, which gave me a piece of mind for leaving her in a caring hands.”

“Very thoughtful, kind, and respectful, Kendelle too all the time we needed to go through our house and pup care and sent us regular updates when we were gone. She left the house clean and the pup happy!”
“Sydney was so awesome with our dogs and cat! She house-sat for us over an extended weekend, and made sure that our animals were safe and taken care of. One of our dogs requires medication a couple times a day, and she was super on top of giving it to her and letting us know. We definitely recommend Sydney!! She was wonderful 😊”

“Erika is professional, kind, responsible, and kept me updated on my pup while I was away. I had her stay at my home while I was away. She was clean and organized and make sure to send me pictures of my little guy. She was excellent and I highly recommend.”

“Jamie took great care of my dog and made me feel comfortable while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, kind, patient, and very sweet with him. My dog seemed happy and well cared for, and it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

About: Meet Your Pet’s New Best Friend 🐾❤️ Hello! My name is Christine, and I live in Los Gatos. I’m a proud pet mom to Chubs, my 7-year-old French Bulldog, and Lady, my sweet 4-year-old kitty. I also had a Yorkie who lived to be 17 and passed away a couple of years ago after a long, wonderful life. He’s truly missed. ❤️ My 19-year-old son and 18-year-old daughter and I are all animal lovers, and we would love to help families who need a little extra care for their fur babies! We have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including kittens. My mom is a cat rescuer who works with a local adoption agency and pet stores, and we’ve helped her care for and feed kittens and other animals for several years. Our pets are friendly, well-behaved, and used to being around other animals. We will treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention we give our own. 🐶🐱❤️ We look forward to meeting you and caring for your fur babies as if they were our own! 📍 Serving Los Gatos and all neighboring areas I work part time so I’m home most of the time if I’m not home I’m only gone a couple hours and I have two older teenagers.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lexington Hills is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $52 and $122 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 October 2026, there are 3,499 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lexington Hills. 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 Lexington Hills 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 Lexington Hills 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 Lexington Hills 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 Lexington Hills. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
