“Needed a sitter to watch my 5 month old puppy so I could enjoy some alone time on vacation...Olivia was available last minute and super accommodating! Mr. Brady was happily tired out and very content everytime I returned! My only complaint would be that she doesn't live in Worcester so I could hire her all the time :)”
“Sarah and her husband were phenomenal! Sarah is a good communicator and very reliable. She sent daily photos while we were away. Our two beloved dogs were well cared for and loves. She was responsible and tidy while staying in our home. I would recommend her without reservation and hope to use her services again in the future.”
“Robert is wonderful. Pascua,Winston,Koda enjoyed being with Robert. Robert is very caring,responsible,thoughtful.

I will definetly call Robert again next time I travel. Thanks”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I value the love you give to your babies, so I strive to do the same! I have taken care of a variety of animals and care for them as my own. I am experienced in administer medication and maintain a similar schedule to what you have. Research shows animals have less anxiety staying in their environment when owners are away. I strive to maintain that when you’re gone I work from home part of the time and travel the NEK the other part. I’m a social worker for my regular job but I am flexible with my schedule. I have days off on Sundays and Mondays to help with that. I follow as close to their normal schedule as you do. It helps with their anxiety and transition. If you walk them in the mornings, I will do the same. I prefer to watch animals in their home to make them more comfortable.
About: Hello, my name is Claudia . I have grown up all my life surrounded by pets, in my other house I have three puppies, five little birds and I also had a cat. I love being surrounded by animals, I am very patient with them, I love playing and walking with them. With my pets, I have always wanted them to socialize, understanding and accepting each other's character and respecting other people's pets in the same way. I have a full time job ,but I have available some hours in the mornings and on Fridays I am usually free almost all day so I would love to start my day surrounded by your adorable pets I will respect the limits and the rules that each pet has in their home and I will fill it with lots of love and games until they can return to it, so I will also make sure that it walks and collects its needs and feeds it at its established times
About: Growing up in my family we always had many cats and dogs. Over the last year I've been introduced to pet sitting and I love it ! I've taken care of dogs ( mostly larger breeds) and house sat for a small farm taking care of dogs, goats and ducks. My availability right now is primarily Sundays and Mondays, and possibly an evening visit Tuesday through Saturday Dog walking & in home visits Littleton local 🩷 I do work until 6pm most days At this time I am available for evening walks/care Tuesday through Saturday and available all day Sundays and Mondays I have a small indoor space right in downtown littleton, close to the ammonoosuk river for a refreshing walk to cool down and socialize. I am more than willing to accommodate your style of pet care. Please let me know of any different or uncommon behaviors, commands, allergies and medical concerns.
“Sue was communicative and it was obvious that our pup was well cared for in our absence. She left our home in great condition as well. We very much appreciate her calm presence, particularly with our anxious doodle. We would definitely book with Sue again in the future.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for years through family, friends, and neighbors. I'm responsible, patient, and genuinely love animals. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, administering medications if needed, or simply providing affection, I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like they're my own. I currently work part-time, and my schedule allows me to be available most afternoons after 3:00 PM, as well as early mornings, evenings and weekends. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable, consistent care and give your animals the attention they deserve. I'm happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet's routine is maintained while you're away. I have experience caring for senior dogs that require daily medication, as well as a younger dog with lots of energy. I always follow care instructions closely, stick to your pet's routine, and treat both your pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Our family was grateful to be able to leave our home and boxer mix rescue with Kelly - she was very thoughtful, organized, communicative and right away our dog was at ease with her. He was one happy pup while we were away with lots of walks and attention. She also cared for our home. We would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone seeking care for their pet/s!”
“Lisa and her partner were available last minute to stay at our home with our dog for a couple days. Our dog was immediately at ease with them and we enjoyed getting picture updates of happy snuggles, playtime, and walks. Great with communication and great with our pup - she was well cared for and relaxed and happy when we got home. All around a good experience!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lisbon on Rover is $83.09 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 69 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lisbon. 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 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 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 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.
