About: I take care of farm animals for a living at Farm Sanctuary but have experience with all kinds of critters! I was a small animal vet tech in college and I have cared for many of my patients at their homes. I am a certified wildlife rehabber but I love taking care of pets and getting to know each individual. I can’t resist snuggling every animal I come across. You should feel comfortable choosing me to take care of your fur babies because I am reliable, responsible, love animals dearly, and will send you pictures of your happy babies every day while you are gone. I have 2 dogs of my own so you can rest easy knowing I will treat them just like my own. I can take your dog for a walk before and/or after work but cannot accommodate overnight stays or boarding right now. I'm off on Fridays and Saturdays so those are my days with the most availability but I’m typically available before 7 am and after 4 pm. I would love to walk your pup around the neighborhood or play with your kitty at your house! ** Are you a first-time user of Rover?

About: I’ve been a pet lover ever since I’m a kid. I own 7 cats and they are my whole heart, I truly love them more than anything else. I would love nothing more than to help you and your pet in a time of need ❤️ Currently, I live in my own home with my seven kitties. I typically wake up around 5 am and spend a bit of time with my animals and feed them and clean their boxes and all that other fun stuff! Caring for my pets is my number one priority, they truly do mean the world to me. I strive to create a pet friendly environment where my animals and yours will be happy and comfortable! My seven babies are comfortable with other cats and are for the most part comfortable with dogs. My two cats, Nala and Val, are quite skittish but arrangements can be made so that they aren’t around dogs if need be. I have a spare bedroom that is mostly for the cats with litter boxes and toys set up, but that room can be used for boarding or just to give our animals a bit of time to get used to each other! If you have a dog who likes to run around outside, accommodations can definitely be made for that as well! My yard is not fenced in, but it’s spacious enough that I can run around with your pup! Truly, whatever accommodations you need, I am happy to help.

“She went above and beyond in terms of keeping us updated while we were away and that really gave us the peace of mind that we needed. Mika even did our laundry while we were away. I would absolutely recommend her to those who want the best for their 4 legged family members!”

“Literally best sitter I have ever had! I reached out last minute to see if she could watch my two cats while I go away, she was quick to respond and to meet up. My cats were well loved and cared for and she is very personable. I am extremely happy with the care I received for my fur children and can’t wait to use her services the next time I go away.”

“Can’t thank Sari enough. She came in on short notice, was so genuine and friendly, quick to respond and helped my dog go through her first ever heat cycle. My dog having her dog period was very unexpected and I could not be more grateful for having someone like Sari. She sent pictures and was very caring for my animals. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of pup sitting services. She should be on the front cover of Rover magazine if there was one. THANK YOU!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lindley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Lindley is $23 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $23 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 November 2026, there are 74 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lindley. 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 Lindley 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 Lindley 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 Lindley 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 Lindley. 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.
