“Elizabeth was so wonderful with our two cats and two dogs. The dogs loved her right away! She had to give one of our pups a daily allergy pill and she understood exactly what she had to do right away without any qualms. She sent us pictures of contented pets through out her visit. We will definitely have her back for future vacations!”
“Teri is great! This is the second time we’ve used her and both have been exceptional. She stayed for 8 days this time and just goes above and beyond to ensure we come home happy. Emerson really enjoys her visits, and that is unusual. He doesn’t let many people play with him, but Teri has made a friend. We have no concerns having Teri stay for long sits. We really feeel blessed to have her. Jim and Cindy”
“Jana was such a fantastic pup and house sitter! Lots of pictures and updates, and Cash was so happy to have lots of love and company. Highly recommend and we will absolutely invite Jana back when she’s available!”
“Megan is an absolutely amazing sitter! I am so thankful for her and that she treated my fur baby like she was her own! When we came home, we could tell Mayleigh was well loved and taken care of, along with our house which she didn't have to do! She updated us every day and provided us with many pictures of our baby taken throughout the day. She came over before the days she was supposed to watch Mayleigh to meet her and us. She asked all the right questions and was so sweet! 5/5 recommend Megan for all of your pet sitting needs!”
About: Hi! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has been a passion of mine since seventh grade. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs, from energetic little puppies to sweet senior dogs. I understand that pets are more than just animals — they’re family! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring and trustworthy hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! 🐾 My schedule is fairly flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet-sitting and dog-walking needs around working as a hairstylist at a salon. I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits both of our schedules, whether you need occasional walks, drop-in visits, or care while you’re away! 🐾 I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets and home in someone else’s care. I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care in your pet’s familiar environment while respecting your home, following your instructions, and keeping your furry family safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. 🤍

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has always been a genuine part of my life, not just a job. I currently have two cats of my own who I’ve raised and care for every day, and I also have experience caring for three dogs—feeding them, playing with them, taking them on walks, and giving them plenty of attention and love. My first dog, Dexter, is where my love for caring for animals really began. I walked him every day, fed him every night, bathed him, played with him, and loved him enough for every star in the sky. ❤️ I know how important pets are to their families because mine mean the world to me. When someone trusts me with their pet, I want them to feel confident knowing their baby is being cared for with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I’m currently a student and attend classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, which leaves me with a very flexible schedule throughout the rest of the week. I’m especially available Thursdays through Sundays, and I can often accommodate different times or last-minute needs. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m always happy to work with you to find a time that fits both your schedule and your pet’s routine! I understand that trusting someone with your pet also means trusting them in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will always be respectful of your space, follow any instructions you leave for me, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. When caring for your cat, I’ll keep their environment safe, clean, and comfortable while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat and your home are being well cared for while you’re away. 🐱🤍
About: I worked at veterinary clinics as a kennel tech and veterinary assistant. I worked as a bather and grooming assistant. I know animal behavior well. I am working part time and I’m available quite often to pet sit, dog walking or do basic grooming services for your pet. Toodles yall I will look after your pet by giving them exercise, providing their meals, giving them potty breaks, cuddles and lots of love. Go dog team!
About: Hi, my name is Nahiara and i’m a student here for a part-time job to cover my collage expenses. I’ve worked with friends and family pets (including chickens and ferrets) I have two dogs Max and Charlee they are both trained and vaccinated. I’m a reliable caretaker!💖 I currently study so I’m available mostly weekends Friday through Sunday anytime. But we can always work around the schedule if needed during weekdays . I’m lucky enough to have a big neighborhood and backyard to provide just enough space to walk around your pups and provide play with treats and toy of your choice!
About: I have 6 kids- 3 of those are dogs. I am very familiar with walking, feeding and the loving needed to keep them happy and healthy. I am available evenings and weekends and with advanced notice can have addl availability. Last minute availability also possible.. Feel free to ask. Holiday availability possible too. I do not board dogs and will not bring other dogs to my home. But i am willing to sit at your home and ensure your pet is safe and happy.
About: What truly sets me apart is the heart and hands-on experience I bring to every pet I care for. As someone who has raised and loved three dogs of my own, I understand firsthand the deep bond between pets and their people. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care — and I don’t take that lightly. My experience ranges from caring for energetic puppies to providing gentle support for senior dogs with special needs. I’ve handled everything from potty training and socialization to administering medications and creating calm routines for older pets. I’m attentive to each animal’s personality and comfort level, and I tailor my care to fit their individual needs. I don’t see this as just a job — I truly love animals, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s a long walk, a quiet cuddle, or simply being a calming presence while you’re away, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, or just offering companionship, I’m happy to provide the same level of love and attention I give my own dogs. Pets in my home enjoy plenty of safe space to run and explore in my fenced half-acre yard. I give them lots of attention, exercise, and make sure to follow their individual routines to keep them happy and comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lisbon is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $48 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon 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.

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.
