Wendy is very personable and sweet and my pups took right to her. Knowing they were home and safe and loved while we were gone meant so very much to me!!!

About: Hi there! I’m Stacy, and caring for animals is truly second nature to me. I’ve been surrounded by all kinds of animals my whole life—growing up at the local vet clinic where my mom worked, and later working there myself for several years. I gained hands-on experience with everything from farm animals and exotics to beloved household pets, either through my own animals, the vet or pet sitting. As a kid (and even now), I’ve always been eager to learn more—constantly researching, reading, and soaking up everything I can about animals and their care. I once dreamed of becoming a vet or a zookeeper, but life had other plans. Now, I dedicate myself to raising my kids, loving my own animals, and helping other pet owners feel at ease when they’re away. What I Offer: 🐶 Dog care & playtime 🐱 Cat care & companionship 🐴 Farm animal feeding & basic care 🐍 Care for reptiles, birds, and other exotics 💊 Medication administration 🏡 Drop-in visits or overnight stays 📸 Updates with photos and messages Why Pet Owners Trust Me: ✅ A lifetime of experience with animals ✅ Background in veterinary care ✅ Patient, dependable, and detail-oriented ✅ Flexible hours & affordable rates Whether you're away for the day or taking a trip, your animals will be safe, loved, and well cared for. I work from home. I work no more than 5 hours at a time. This makes my schedule very flexible to work around the needs of your pets. I generally do no not go out of town much, so me being unavailable is rare. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client's—I treat them like part of the family. Thanks to a lifetime of experience with animals (growing up in a vet clinic and later working there myself), I’m comfortable handling a wide variety of species, from domestic pets to farm animals and exotics. I pay close attention to each animal's routine, personality, and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I do have a fenced in yard too! In a client’s home, I strive to maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding times, exercise, medications, and even little things like favorite toys or spots to nap. I make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and enriched. If they’re in my home, I create a calm and secure space where they receive individualized attention, supervised interactions (if applicable), and plenty of affection. I’m always learning and updating my knowledge about animal care, behavior, and health. I know how important peace of mind is when someone leaves their pet in another’s hands, so I also provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication to help build that trust.

MacKinley did a nice job with our needy cat. She commented with me several times to check in with my preferences. Lucy was happy when we got home. She even left food that my cat likes since she couldn’t use it for her own anymore. Thanks Mackinley!

About: I’m 24 years old, im a part time stna and part time dog sitter! Im a pet owner, I’ve grew up with pets my entire life. I grew up with cats, dogs, fish, goats. I love to care for animals/ people who can’t take care/speak for themselves😇 I currently work a part time, night shift job during the week Tuesday-Thursday. I am available on weekends at ANY TIME for boarding, house sitting or drop-in visits. And during the week I am also available any time after 9am! For any pet they need to be fed, bathed, time to play, let outside to potty and just be a nice companion to them everyday. I’m a pet owner myself so I already do the everyday chores/ needs that are needed for care. It’s been a lifelong routine of mine that I’m accustomed to.

About: My first job growing up was working for my aunts Dog Grooming Business. With that experience, I am able to bathe, trim, nails, and give haircuts to most breeds. I have been watching dogs for family and friends most of my adult life either in Home or at their home. I enjoy being outside taking dogs on walks in nature & letting them sniff all the smells. I currently work from home and I’m the owner of my business so my time is very flexible. I am able to go to homes or watch pets in my home during the day and nights. My home has a large unfenced yard with a woods where we are able to go on walks and explore. I have two dogs in my home and they are part of my family. I do have crates in home if needed, but rarely use them. Both of my dogs are rescues currently so I do like to have a meeting before if a dog will be staying in our home. If I’m watching the pet in your home, I will come over as much as needed and even stay the night if that is necessary.

About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!

About: I have cared for my own animals since I was 7 years old! I know how Important your furry family mean to you,so why not have someone that loves and cares for animals just as much! I have a 2 year old blue heeler mixed, pitbul, and 3 wonderful cats! So no dog or cat is nor big or small. I love them all the same as my own. I have decided to make sitting your pets my highest priority and have officially made pet sitting a full time job I am available anytime of the day! I am very confident with kenneling a dog as I have to with mine! Love to give lots of cuddles for those who may need that extra attention!

About: I love animals almost as much as humans,maybe more. I've cared for many pets such as dogs, cats,snakes, bearded dragons,hamsters and rabbits! I enjoy being around furry friends and always draw attention when I first meet animals especially dogs. I do my best to keep animals away from harm and in the best care possible. Animals are just more members to a family and should be treated as such. I am a huge animal lover who wouldn't ever do anything to hurt a dog or any animal. I have always strived to be the best pet parent I can be. My own dog is my baby. He is in the best care and loves his bones. Letting me take care of your baby is a wise choice! I have my own furbabies I take care of. We play every day and they are fed until satisfied. Their cuddles and kisses bring a brightness to my day! I work from home so it is easier for me to take care of their needs. I let my dogs out every 2 hours or when they let me know. They get fed twice a day with treats throughout the day.

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life since majority of my family members have them. I used to have the responsibility of feeding and providing potty breaks for my grandparents dog. Now I have a cat of my own. I’m currently working full time, so I typically only have Thursday-Saturday to look after your pets. More than happy to try and make any time work for those days! As a longtime pet owner and animal lover, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. Having cared for my own cat and looked after animals for many years, I know how to create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment while respecting each pet’s unique needs and routine.

About: I have experience sitting and over night boarding for 10+ years from neighbors, friends, family. I’m open to walking, drop-ins, feeding and sitting for cats, dogs, or reptiles even of any age or weight, breed, etc. I am known for being reliable, adaptable and loving. Taking care of my fur babies is the most important and I promise the same for yours. I look forward to learning about you and your fur babies. Do not hesitate to contact me about any questions. Have a great day and happy wags! I will have plenty of time for your fur babies. Monday through Sunday, I have open availability, whether you need a lunch drop-in, before or after work visit, and house sitting you can count on me! *willing to travel far distances* Attending to your fur babies needs is the most important. We would have potty breaks, feeding, maybe litter cleaning (if needed) and/or medication. All fur babies need attention, so I would give tons of pets or hugs and fun time with toys.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lindsey

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 276 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lindsey. 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 Lindsey 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 Lindsey 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 Lindsey 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 Lindsey. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
