“Julie accepted my last-minute booking without hesitation, and I'm so grateful she was available! She was incredibly responsive, kept me updated, followed every instruction perfectly, and took the sweetest pictures of my dog. It was clear my dog felt comfortable and loved being with her. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. I truly wish I could give more than 5 stars!”
“Dana was great! He took care of my elder dog and cat. He was caring and communicative. He sent us updates and pictures. It is nice knowing your babies are in good hands. Would definitely book with him again!”
“Dominique took fantastic care of our elderly pug. She provided tons of photos and updates, and went above and beyond to keep him feeling happy and comfortable. Thanks again!”
“Another great experience working with Rich! I will definitely be using him on a regular basis. The photos he sent were so well captured I will be printing them out for my wall💚”
“Alexandria was so great with my dog Neko. She was affectionate and caring with her, and she communicated well with me, to make me feel at ease for leaving her. Alexandria followed all my instructions and was very friendly and personable too. I also really like that she was able to be at my house with my dog for almost the whole stay. That's a very big plus when you have a dog with separation anxiety! I would definitely book her again!”
“Alexys did a great job with our kitten and puppy. She kept us updated on how they were doing. Our puppy is skittish around new people and things and she was able to win him over. She was also very professional and our home was as we left it. We will be using her again in a few days after having her here for the past week.”
“Chris was a fantastic sitter and house guest. My dog is recovering from a major surgery and Chris took such good care of him. Sully was very comfortable and enjoyed his time with Chris. I would highly recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you!!”
“We've never left our kitties alone for more than a day or two and when we had to take a longer trip, we asked Porsche to take care of them while we were gone and it was a great experience. Normally whenever we're gone for too long, it's clear that they're stressed. When we got back this time they were totally chill, very "You were gone? Oh, we didn't notice. I'm going back to my nap now." It's was clear from their behavior that she took wonderful care of them and gave them lots of attention. Highly recommend Porsche and will be asking her to take care of them in the future if she's willing.”
“Brandon is receptive and communicative. He cares about my animals and was especially helpful when my dog began not feeling well and had some accidents. If he had a question to make sure he was giving my animals thr best care possible, he wasn't afraid to ask. He had his hands full with my animals but did very well and I know they were happy while I was away. Definitely will use again.”
“20/10 recommend! Ari gave us constant updates and photos which really put us at ease. He came for a meet and greet at our home before the stay and was very reassuring. Our babies so obviously loved him and our apartment was exactly how we left it. Will definitely book again!”
“Gabrielle was wonderful while we were away. She kept in contact the whole time. We gave her a lot of details for Bowie’s care before we left. She followed them precisely and asked questions if anything came up that we did not tell her. We got lots of pics and updates. We felt at ease knowing Bowie was being well cared for. When bad weather was predicted for our return date she stayed with him way past when we had agreed upon to make sure we were safely en route home before leaving him. Definitely got 5 star care and service from her and recommend her full heartedly.”
About: Growing up around all types of animals helped me develop my current love for them! I’m an aspiring veterinary student that would love to get more experience :) I currently take care of my own dogs at home, while also have taken care of cats numerous times! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was born, this comes naturally to me. I care for pets like they’re my own, giving them the love and care that I would if it were in my own home. Every animal deserves kindness!
“Hanna is amazing. She's super responsible, gave my pup loads of love and took great care of my house, including when the roof started leaking in the rain. She communicates as often as you want, sends adorable pictures and videos and asks questions if she's not sure of anything. My dog has already requested her again. I'll certainly hope she's available next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Ceara is amazing!! She took such great care of our house and our two dogs, which one is a 9 week year old puppy. We will keep booking her anytime we need and she is free!”
“Maria did a great job caring for Blu and Leo during her stay. She was attentive, communicative, and patient, especially with Blu’s crate training. I appreciated how smoothly the evening went and how she kept me updated throughout the night. I’d happily have her sit for my pets again!”
“Brittany was so amazing! She was super communicative and flexible with my booking and Oscar absolutely loved her. I will definitely book with Brittany again if I need a long-term stay for Oscar!”
“Quanence and Malik were amazing! From the very start at the meet & greet they were both very detailed, asked all the right questions, and took lots of notes. They took great care of our pets Cali & Spanky. They kept us informed the entire time and sent pics. Communication was excellent. We could not have been happier. It’s a beautiful feeling to truly be able to be present at our event, knowing we didn’t have to worry about our babies. Today, was our first time using their service. Promise, it will not be the last. Do NOT hesitate to book their services!!! So happy our paths have crossed Quanence and Malik - thank you for everything!!! ☺️”
“I booked Isaiah last minute and luckily he was available for the one night/two days, and was amazing with our “fussy/Mama’s boy” small terrier. Isaiah was communicative, sent lots of pics and very responsible. Will use him again for sure.”
“Gregg is an awesome pet sitter. My dogs were very comfortable with him. He is kind, considerate, caring and he pays attention to detail. He sent many pictures and provided detailed status updates during the sit. My dogs and I will definitely be requesting his pet sitting services again soon!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington Park
Angelina was very responsive. My 2 older dogs are super easy but we threw a puppy into the mix which I know can be challenging. She reached out with any questions. The house was neat and clean when we came home. She offered to stay if our flight home was delayed.
Dana came in clutch and helped us with a last minute request. She provided great updates, followed instructions well, and sent cute pics along the way. She took great care of our 2 big goofy dogs and would definitely reach out to her for help in the future 😊
Matthew was absolutely amazing! He followed all of my instructions perfectly, was very attentive to my dog’s needs, and kept my home clean and organized. I felt completely at ease knowing everything was being taken care of. I would definitely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!
Jessica’s was wonderful with my pets she stayed took care of them and they were very happy and very comfortable with her. I could see that when we first did the meet and greet. My pets were very happy when I came home and I could tell that we’re well taken care of. I would definitely use Jessica again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lexington Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lexington Park on Rover is $53.5 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 5,478 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lexington Park. 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 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lexington Park. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
