About: I’ve cared for my own dog since 2020 and have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and love spending time with animals. I currently work part-time at a restaurant on Friday evenings and some Saturdays and Sundays. I’m available most weekdays during the day, all day Tuesday, and after 8:30 PM on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep doors secure, provide regular updates, and give pets plenty of attention.

About: My approach to pet sitting is centered around patience, safety, affection, and making each pet feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every animal in my care like family and do my best to maintain the routines, boundaries, and care instructions that their pet parents have established. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and have their individual routine and needs respected. Depending on their personality and care instructions, they’ll enjoy plenty of playtime, walks, exercise, affection, and opportunities to relax and feel comfortable. Safety & Environment Your pet’s safety and comfort are always a top priority in my home. I provide a safe, welcoming environment with two spacious patios and plenty of grass for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. Pets are never left without someone available to care for them—we work as a team, and either my husband or I will be present and attentive to their needs throughout their stay. With your permission and depending on your pet’s comfort level and routine, I can also take them to a local dog park for additional exercise and socialization. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully and make sure every pet receives the supervision, attention, and care they need to feel secure and at home.

About: When I was in high school I took 3 years of veterinary technician class and got my cva. I’ve worked at a vet clinic taking care boarding and hospital pets for 4 years. I’ve own my own dogs and even fostered some. I’m currently unemployed but I am a single mother so I have plenty time for any scheduling and time for your furry babies. At the moment I’m available for most times. I don’t have a fenced in yard and I have a roommate, who has a cat, and two young children so I won’t be providing any boarding services at my home.

About: Hi pet parents!!! 🐶🐱🐰🐹🐭🐷🐮🦎🐠🦜🐾 My name is Bre!! I’m here to be your babies new best friend and care taker!🤍🩷 I have built years worth of hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. I also care for six babies of my own, so animals are a huge part of my everyday life. I do pet care, alongside my husband, Brandon, and together we’re comfortable caring for everything from energetic younger pets to seniors and animals with special needs. I’ve had experience with elderly pets who may need a slower pace, medications, extra patience, closer supervision, or a little more help getting comfortable. I’m also very mindful of pets who are nervous, shy, overwhelmed, or stressed when their owners are away. I pay close attention to body language and never force interaction!! I like to let each pet warm up at their own pace and adjust my approach based on what makes them feel safest. Whether that means extra playtime, a calm presence, sticking closely to their normal routine, or simply giving them space, I’m very patient and gentle. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, litter box care, basic grooming, keeping an eye out for changes in behavior, and following detailed care instructions. As a pet mommy myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and Brandon and I take that responsibility very seriously. We want every pet in our care to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. We love all pets any shape or size and would be honored to help out in any way we can!!🤩 Pet care is already a huge part of my everyday life since I have six babies of my own. My days naturally include feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after everyone, and of course lots of attention and cuddles. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting without having to rush visits or squeeze them around a full workday. I’m also happy to work around a pet’s normal routine because I know how much consistency can matter for them. I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I carefully follow feeding, walking, potty, medication, and special care instructions, and I’m very patient with shy, nervous, elderly, or special-needs pets. I pay close attention to body language and never force interaction if a pet is stressed or needs space. I also keep their area clean, make sure they have fresh food and water, and give them plenty of playtime, attention, cuddles, or quiet company depending on their personality. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Over the past four years, I’ve cared for dozens of dogs and cats for friends and family—walking, feeding, playing, and giving them love while their people were away. What started as doing favors turned into something I genuinely enjoy and feel confident doing, so I thought… why not finally offer it professionally? While I’ve never had a pet of my own (yet!), I treat every animal I care for like they’re family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re gone. I’m attentive, gentle, and great at reading an animal’s vibe—whether they want playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm nearby. I’d love to meet your furry companion and be someone you can count on. Let’s chat about how I can help! I currently work part-time most of my work days are during the weekend so throughout the week I am home all day pretty much every day! I am to make sure I learn the routines of each of my clients and ensure that the pets feel like they are at home!

About: I am new to dog walking for others on an app, however my family has had a family dog since I was 10. I have dog-sat for my sister and mother over the years and love all animals in general. I treat dogs and cats as their own individuals and act as a secure space for them to be comfortable. I am new, but I do appreciate anyone taking a chance. I work a full-time serving job that goes fairly late into the night. During weekdays I am more available however my schedule does shift for work. If you need late night walks for your precious child while you work or party, I’m here for you. Schedule- Monday- always off Tuesday/ Wednesday- usually off (3-10) Thursday- possibly off (3-12) Friday/Saturday- usually working (3-2am) Sunday- usually working (3-10) If you have any questions or need any flexibility let me know and we can see if something can work. Right now I do not have my own fur baby, only because I know how much care they require and I would like to be in the best position possible to care for them myself. I do care for all pets and animals with unconditional love and affection, and have lived with pets where I did take a partial responsibility in care.

Allyson was a great find as we unexpectedly need to find a pet sitter fast. Our pup Molly took to her right away and they became fast friends. I received real time updates, she was observant to notice things right away, sent pics and she was very helpful and flexible given our situation. It’s been super having her help us with Molly and I can’t recommend her enough.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Lithia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lithia is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $26 per visit. 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 6,454 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lithia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Lithia 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!

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.

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.

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Lithia with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lithia. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
