“Hannah is so patient and understanding with our anxious shepherd puppy. She went out of her way to help with our chickens too! We feel so secure with her staying in our home and treating our dogs with the most cuddly love.”
“Sam was great as always. He took very good care of our babies, even scooped the cats litter box when he didn’t have to. He was able to calmly retrieve our dog quickly when he got out. He always leaves the house clean with the trash taken out”

“Kathleen is amazing! She checked in regularly with pictures of my relaxed and content baby. She was caring and attentive. She even picked up on his silent cues for when he wanted a snack or treat. When we came home, it was as if we'd only been away for 10 minutes. There is no one I'd trust more.”
About: I have experience with dogs big and small, old and young, cats, iguanas, guinea pigs, hamsters, bunnies and some snakes I love all animals and I really enjoy spoiling them I can feed your animals, walk them, bathe them and clean up after them If you're anything like me, you'll appreciate a ton of photos. I try and get the good angles. Sometimes they're goofy, sometimes I try and get that JC Penny shot lol You'll never have to wonder how your furkids are doing because I give very detailed updates If I'm not taking care of your furbabies then I'm taking care of my own. It's my life and it brings me so much joy I will follow all feeding instructions. It's never too much. Trust me. I have 6 animals and 2 eat the same. Everyone else is different as far as supplements and medications and food additives to get them to eat their dang supplements and meds 😅 I can do walks and supervised yard time and indoor play
About: I have 6 years of experience caring for pets and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members. I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care while making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they receive individualized care and feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I am currently working full-time, mostly remote with one or two days in the office each month. Working from home gives me plenty of flexibility to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a calm, attentive environment and carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, or special needs.
About: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs my whole life but around 14 years old I got my first puppy, Bella. Since then, our furry family has grown to one more dog and three cats all of varying ages! For the last two years, I’ve been helping friends, family and my neighbors by watching their pets while they’re gone. In that time, I pet sat dogs ranging from 10lbs to 90lbs and learned how to manage routines, bath times/grooming, feeding and medication care, plus walks and play time. I am enrolled as a part-time college student, I currently have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays 8am-3pm. Outside of that, I have a lot of free time that I’m happy to spend with your pet! I can stay in the home as needed or stop by for potty breaks and feeding or walks. That means I can send updates almost any time of the day plus pictures! I will let you know when I’m coming and going as well as any significant changes throughout the days. I am open to meetings or calls before scheduled sessions. I know that booking a stranger to take care of your loved ones can be scary and stressful! I don’t want to be a stranger to you or your fur babies, so allow me to take that stress off your hands by getting to know you and or your pets better beforehand. I am ready to listen and fulfill their needs or any special requests for routines they might have!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies I also grew up taking care of English bulldogs and understand the importance of consistency with potty training, basic commands, and positive reinforcement. I’m also attentive and gentle with senior pets, making sure they receive extra patience, medication support if needed, and a calm environment. I’m reliable, communicative, and always keep pet parents updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved, secure, and well cared for while you’re away My schedule is pretty open. I am always flexible depending on what I have scheduled. I do work but only part time. I make time for the pets I watch. I love to take my dog on walks my animals are house dogs they spend time with me and enjoying life not in a cage though they do have one and love to just lay in there but there environment is safe and welcoming.
About: Ive taken care of many pets with specialized needs. This includes routine medicine and eye drops for the elderly, frequent belly band changes changes for those with bladder issues, and calming treats for those fearful of storms. Im quick to learn each dogs bathroom tells to avoid any unwanted accidents. I also have fishkeeping experience with 2 freshwater fish tanks at home. So if youre fish needs feeding or water quality checks I can handle that was well. I am currently working a part time internship with flexible hours, which allows me to care for furry babies in my free time! Weekends are typically busy, however with enough notice I can make them work. House rules are always respected, no matter how much a dog wants couch cuddles or if the cat likes the view from on top of the counter.
About: I have an immense love for pets, dogs especially! I have some experience being with family dogs and I have a 3 year old fur baby myself, who is a Shih Tzu and Bichon Frise mix. I take note of dog's body language, when they are tense and whenever they are ready to play. I have experience on how I should help a dog in the case they have trouble breathing. I especially love to bond and play with dogs! I ensure that your dogs are going to safe and have the best experiences with me!🤗 I'm currently working part-time, so I would have plenty of time to be with your fur babies! I am typically free on the weekdays from Monday to Friday. The earliest I can do a scheduled appointment for around 8 hours. My time ranges from the earliest at 8am and the latest at 9pm. In my home, I get rid of any harmful items on the ground or in sight of my pet. I clean my pet's bowl daily. I make sure to keep them company. I never leave them unsupervised for long hours. For your pet I will adhere to any strict feeding or medicine routines and communicate quick updates.
“Hannah was amazing! She provided top-notch care for my pup, Clover, and her communication was great. Clover had an absolute blast under her watch, and it's clear that Hannah genuinely loves animals. I will without a doubt be booking with her again in the future! Thank you, Hannah! :)”
“Alexis did a wonderful job house sitting for us! All animals (bird, fish, and dog) were all taken care of as well as our home. I highly recommend her! Thank you, Alexis!”
About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years now! With lots of experience with senior dogs and animals in need of more attentive care! I am fully available to housesit along with pets! I work a wonky schedule but the animal or persons baby also comes first! I am fully available 7 days a week! I am much more able to give my upmost priority and attention when staying with the animal in their home. I am not able to host animals at the moment. Not until I move. If that was not going on I would absolutely be able to host.
About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.
About: I have a genuine love for all animals and perhaps a special affinity towards man’s best friend!

Play outside. provide potty and exercise walks while leashed to allow for new scents as well.

“Sanai was an absolute delight! She is incredibly respectful, clean, and kind, and took exceptional care of our three-month-old puppy, Obi. My husband and I highly recommend her and fully trust her to care for our fur baby in the future.”
About: Promo Code for $40 off first time booking for Pet Owners that it is their first time using Rover- AMANDD61392 Friends and Family call me the animal whisperer. I have had a dog/dogs my whole life. I have taken care of dogs from brand new puppies, to babies that were at the end of their life. I'm currently not working full time away from home, so for any boardings that are on week days or weekends, you and your fur babies are good to go. I do have one small dog at home BUT, if you prefer your dogs to be alone while here, my dog is easily brought to his grandparents house:), which they are always happy about. I will update when my work schedule changes. I have a fenced yard (tall privacy wooden fence with sliding deadbolt), and can easily crate dogs if needed. Any animals would have free range of the house and the yard. Your babies are my babies while I am taking care of them.
“Latisha was great & clearly made our dog, who can have some nervousness about new people, feel very at ease and comfortable. Latisha was proactive and asked all the right questions to make sure we were giving her the right info so she could take good care of our boy. She sent lots of pics & kept us updated on how he was doing, including some adorable ones of him snuggling his face next to her. Clearly our dog has a new buddy and we look forward to having Latisha back to care for him again.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington Park
Samuel did an excellent job caring for out dog and parrot. He stayed in our home overnight and took very good care of Arthur. He answered my texts right away and was very responsible, following all our directions. I would definitely get him again to care for our babies. Thank you Samuel.
Hannah was just absolutely lovely. She worked with us through some scheduling snafus on our end and made herself available for a meet and greet on super short notice. Our pup and kitty were wonderfully cared for and Hannah was terrific about sending updates and was also a lovely houseguest. We would absolutely recommend booking with Hannah and will be doing so again!
Katie was very professional and caring with our senior doggie. She was responsive and provided us with daily photos (on her walk, in the yard, and in the house) of our little girl. We loved seeing the pictures. It was a comfort knowing our doggie could stay in her own home with her own routine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Park 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 Park 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 Park 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
