“Kristine was the best! She sent photos and our little guy looked happy and not stressed out. She went beyond taking care of him. Our flight was delayed and she was able to still give him his last dose of medication. Also it was nice having her at the house during the day. It made Tony get use to her. Thank you so much. We now know we have someone to help us out!”
“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.”
“Lucia stayed with Coco in our home for eight days while we were away, and I couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Coco can be shy and anxious with new people, but Lucia was incredibly patient and allowed her to warm up at her own pace. She followed Coco's routine carefully, kept us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. When we returned home, Coco was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they had formed a special bond, and seeing how comfortable and affectionate Coco was with Lucia meant so much to us. Our home was also just as we had left it. What stands out most about Lucia is how thoughtful and attentive she is. She pays close attention to the little details, genuinely cares about your pet's comfort and well-being, and treats them as if they were her own. It's obvious that caring for animals is more than just a job to her. If you're looking for someone who is compassionate, reliable, communicative, patient, and completely trustworthy, I can't recommend Lucia highly enough. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and look forward to having her care for Coco again.”
“Stephanie was great with our rescue, Molly. We had never left her before and were very nervous about it. Molly warmed up to her quickly and Stephanie was great with her. I would highly recommend her to care for any of your furry family members!!!”
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!”
“Marilese took great care of my boy Jack, as well as my home. Was very thoughtful to keep everything nice and tidy and she was clearly professional. Listening and writing things down with great detail to make sure not a single item was missed for the care of my dog and home. She does take pride in her job, and takes things very seriously. Highly recommend. Thanks again!”
“Grant has watched our pets several times now, and every time has been the same. No worries. Never have to think about it while we are traveling. Grant holds down the fort and we know our pets are in good hands. Would definitely recommend and will continue to book with him.”
“Andrea is a gem. She is communicative, respectful, and left our home in excellent condition. My cats are everything to me and she took wonderful care of them while I was out of town for my birthday. She also left me a sweet card and note with an update. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Monte came in clutch last minute (driving over the hill to Santa Cruz) to watch our two greyhounds. He treated them like the king and queen that they are, almost better than we treat them ourselves. Walks in the woods, car rides, pets and delicious meals. He kept us updated regularly with the the cutest pictures and notes. Highly recommend his services!”
“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.”
“Scarlet was great! She did a meet and greet first with our anxious dog and spent a lot of time just patiently feeding him treats and letting him warm up to her so when it was time for the actual, he was excited to see her again instead of terrified of a stranger like he usually is. She followed instructions and took good care of him while we were at work.”
“We had the pleasure of rebooking Mamu for a two week trip, and once again, they did a wonderful job caring for my high energy dog. Mamu is incredibly thoughtful and attentive by sending daily pictures and videos but also going the extra mile to care for my dog's specific needs. They have been working with my dog on his leash pulling. Mamu isn't just watching over your furry friend, but they truly engages with them and wants to help them thrive. Mamu is also very observant and always quick to communicate if something seems off or needs attention. My dog absolutely ADORES Mamu. If you’re lucky enough to book with Mamu, know that your pet, home and your peace of mind are in the best hands.”
About: Build Trust| Detail Oriented | Communication I’m a responsible and caring pet sitter who truly understands how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else. Building trusted relationships with both pets and their owners is very important to me. I communicate clearly and consistently, and I always provide frequent updates with photos, videos, and detailed notes so you can feel confident and relaxed while you’re away. I’m very detail-oriented and make sure to follow each pet’s routine, preferences, and care instructions closely. I grew up with dogs and have many years of experience helping friends care for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I naturally get along well with animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company and making them feel safe. I’m patient and gentle, especially with shy or anxious pets, and I always let them warm up at their own pace. I’m reliable, punctual, and respectful of your home, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’d love to meet you and your pet and help make your time away worry-free. I’m able to work from home and it makes my schedule flexible. I’m available during the days/nights, weekends, holidays. I will work around your schedule. Please reach out and we can work out a schedule. I’m starting recently on rover. I will begin to care for pets in my home. It’s a walkable neighborhood and close to plenty of dog parks.
About: Hi! My spouse, Olga, and I live in a spacious home with a large, fully fenced in yard in a good neighborhood. No kids in the house. Our 9 year old female wire fox terrier who was our best companion and ultimate Rover playmate recently passed away. Her spirit lives on and we're harnessing that good energy into every visitor. Update: We recently got a new puppy, a female Welsh Terrier names Josie. She has a great personality and we're currently going through puppy training with her. I've owned dogs my entire life and am attune to their needs and varying personalities. Every pet has different needs and routines, and I'm glad to cater to your pet and treat him/her like my own. We like to be stay active and often walk, hike, run, or take trips out to the beach or parks. Campbell is a very dog friendly city which makes it easy to go places with them. I often walk within the neighborhoods, downtown, and along the Los Gatos Creek trail. Ideally your dog would be house broken, doesn't chew furniture/shoes, and has minimal separation anxiety/barking. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover all my life. Grew up with dogs and currently have 1. About my yard I have a large fenced in backyard, 1/3 is concrete and other portion is grass/landscaping. Plenty of shade!
About: I have 2 dogs that are the absolute loves of my life. I’ve had dogs my whole life and always watch friends dogs and provide exceptional care! What can I say, I like dogs more than people!! I have a flexible work from home schedule and a large flat fenced yard. I love to take dogs for hikes and walks and provide food, pets and care as needed! I am very attuned and aware of dogs. If something seems off, I will take immediate action. I ensure food and treat schedules are adhered to and overall will just love and cuddle and pet and walk your dog! I’m super kind and believe dogs are the kindest souls on earth.

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.

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.
