“Ava was great with my kitten. She's pretty young and needed extra attention and Ava was a great companion for her. Would absolutely use her in the future.”
“Laura was wonderful and took excellent care of Wally and Sally during a stormy afternoon (Wally has severe storm anxiety). I felt completely at ease leaving my pups in her care, she gave timely updates, lots of pics and spoiled them just like i do! I am looking forward to booking with Laura again in the near future. Great job!”
“We can’t say enough great things about Madelyn she took amazing care of our boys, Jett and Griffin, while we were away. From the start, communication was fantastic — we received regular updates, adorable photos:)”
“Michelle was perfect. She was so sweet and loving. We had a meeting before hand to make sure she was comfortable with our crew and it went great you can tell she has a big heart for animals. Our kitty Callie has some special needs and hasn't been feeling great she was really understanding and accommodating. We will definitely use Michelle for our pets again!”
“Our pup and kitty LOVE Kaelin!! We’ve had her pet sit for the past 2 Christmas breaks and she’s been wonderful. Our dog is very high maintenance (kidney issues, IBS, and he’s blind) and it’s such a relief knowing he’s well taken care of while we’re away.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds: From puppies to seniors, energetic to couch potatoes and everything in between!! I’m great with set schedules such as: walks, feedings, meds (if needed), any special commands or routines of sorts. I am guaranteed to have tail wagging reviews!! I’m currently transitioning into a new job, however weekdays I can be available after 3:30pm, as well as weekend open availability for overnights or drops or even just walks. Whatever you need I’d be happy to help you! I do not have the space at my own place for dogs or cats to stay. However I do have reliable transportation to get me to your home and tend to your fur baby!! I am great with any schedules left for me to follow as well as locking up prior to leaving.
About: I have been caring for pets my entire life. I treat every animal as they were my own. I have two dogs and one cat of my own and all are rescued and very loving. I would love to nurture and spoil your pets as I do my own. This includes endless amounts of love, plenty of play time and frequent walks, and potty breaks. I want you to know while your gone working hard your babies are cared for the best they could be. I've never came across an animal that hasn't loved me and that I haven't loved. I will give endless amounts of hugs and kisses if anything thats what I'll do too much of. Thank you can't wait to hear from owners :) I work from home and I'm here available all day we take potty breaks every 2 hours and exercise time. We give love care attention here I have 2 loving dogs who love other animals and a big maine coone cat who loves attention and playing my kids love to help out also
“Patricia took great care of our dog (and our house!) during our trip out of town. She sent us lots of great updates so we knew all was well at home 🙂. We are so happy to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the near future!!”
“Emberly was spectacular. She helped us out with very short notice, taking care of three dogs that can get pretty rowdy. She handled our sick puppy with the care, love, and affection Dottie needed, even though Emberly didn’t know until the night before how much specialized care Dottie would need. My wife and I greatly appreciate Emberly’s help, and we would definitely use her again.”
“Madison was great with our dogs! She communicated often with updates and sent lots of photos and videos. My boys seemed to have a great time with her which allowed me to relax and enjoy our vacation. Will absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“Kam did an excellent job and was a pleasure to work with. She is very communicative and thoughtful. Our dog - who is usually quite anxious - was extremely comfortable and relaxed with her while we were on vacation, even over the 4th of July when loud noises usually bother him. Kam stayed at our home and sent lots of cute dog pics while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“It was wonderful to be able to go visit family (some are allergic to dogs) and know that Mochi, CiCi and Nala were in good hands. Dajon did a wonderful job and the dogs loved him. He sent pictures which made us happy to see how happy the dogs were. Thank you Dajon!”
“Took very good care of my five cats, including my senior diabetic cat, who she gave insulin to. My cats responded well to her immediately and were drawn to her and comfortable approaching on our meet and greet. She reached out to me immediately when one cat was hiding during her first visit and I appreciate the realtime communication when an issue arose. We arrived back home after 3 days and my babies were happy and healthy. Will definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I have taken care of a vast majority of pets but mostly cats and dogs. I have watched over many dog breeds especially ones with certain medical needs I am currently an online only student so I have plenty of free time to offer clients for those pets that need it. I can make the best out of any situation. Coming into a client’s home I will always ask the routine and/or needs your pet(s) has and make sure to keep them company when they need it
About: I enjoy playing and spending time with animals! My abilities extend from being able to go on long walks with energetic dogs, to simply providing comfort and affection to quiet cats. With my family owning many different rescue animals of our own, I have a lot of experience in caring and cleaning up after pets. I am currently on summer break, so I am able to stop by at almost any hour of any day! I have my own car, and should be free for most weeks of summer! For my cats I feed them wet food every night and scoop their litter. Alongside the litter, I often clean, sweep, and sometimes mop if needed for accidents. As for my dog, I try to walk him daily, and play with him every day during his hyper moods. We also try to visit the dog park often! I do have some experience in crafting together specialized meals for specific dietary needs.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since childhood! Dogs, cats, fish, turtles, goats, ducks, chickens etc. I also, love animals!! You can trust me with your best friends! I am currently available whenever! At the moment taking care of 4 dogs. After, next Sunday I watch your furry friends whenever I am needed! I have 4 dogs at the moment. I hang out with them in the house, take for walks and play when they want to play!
About: I have had 6 dogs throughout my lifetime. I have experience with small and big dogs. I have the most experience with poodle breeds. I have experience in puppy training/adult dog training and senior dog care. I have 24/7 availability. I currently have a beagle mix named Reggie! I work hard to make sure he’s taken care of through play, feeding, and (most importantly) loved on. When I take care of dogs, I make sure they are adequately exercised outside, I make sure they are fed and have water, and I make sure they have enough mental stimulation to make them happy and healthy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lithopolis on Rover is $24.42 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,457 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lithopolis. 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 Lithopolis 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 Lithopolis 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 Lithopolis 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 Lithopolis. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
