“My cat Luna is 15 years old! She was in wonderful shape when we returned home from 11 days on vacation with Kristy watching her. Kristy did drop in visits with her every day. She stayed longer than she was required to stay. Which was amazingly thoughtful. She kept everything super clean! Luna didn’t have any hotspots on her like she usually does when we go away. Kristy gave her lots of love! I got lots of pictures and everybody was very happy. We would love to have Kristy watch her again next time we go away. I’m grateful to her and grateful that we found this app so that we could find Kristy.”

About: I've lived in a house full of dogs for years so I feel more than qualified to handle a house full of your furry friends or a house with one. I've pet sat for friends and family so I know how important it is your dogs don't feel alone. Nowadays, even with the heat I'm a big fan of taking walks with my dogs. We're both fans of the exercise and I have a small wading pool as a treat after the walk. I normally take them early in the morning or later in the evening when the sun is not at its hottest to protect their feet. I only work part time early mornings so I have a wide open afternoon schedule that is available. I'm willing to be flexible with your schedule. My normal weekly schedule has me available Mondays and Tuesdays after 1pm and Wednesday through Friday I am available after 11am. I'm all about positive reinforcement and love to play with dogs. I understand dogs can get rough and I'm not afraid of their nibbles but I do know how to distract and redirect their attention in the case of extreme rough play. I'm a big fan of treats so I do include treats during my time with dogs. As long as there is a fenced in back yard, I don't like to rely too heavily on a leash but like for the dog to feel free to roam.

About: Pets have always been apart of my family, growing up with two dogs and 8 cats (indoor/outdoor) I simply could not imagine a life without them! I have confident knowledge in caring for senior pets (administering medicine, joint massages, mobility support) along with fresh faces in the world (potty training, teething, crate training, etc.). My best approach has always been patience and love. Not every pet knows what to do when their person leaves and that is OKAY! I am here to make sure they are comfortable and cared for, just as they are if you were home. I am currently a full-time doctorate student online so I spend 100% of my day at home. I am available to stay with your pups completely during the day giving them lots of attention and time outside, I’m sure we both will enjoy it!! I will likely spend nights (if applicable) in my home but can definitely be flexible to what suits your needs best. I have a dog park and dog wash station at my apartment and lots of outdoor space for them to roam. I like to make sure they are getting the care they need whether that be outside playing or inside getting cuddles, I’m here for it all!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up around pets for as long as I can remember! I’m someone who is patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m always willing to learn what makes your pet feel the most comfortable and happy. When I’m taking care of your pets, my priority is making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether that means going on a walk, playing outside, getting some extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get the attention they deserve! I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and personalities, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I also understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person taking care of your fur babies, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure you know how they’re doing. I’m currently a student and would love to spend some of my free time caring for animals! I’m dependable, flexible, and excited to meet some new furry friends. 🐶🤍 I’d love the opportunity to take care of your pets and treat them like they’re my own! I have classes Monday–Friday, but my schedule varies throughout the week. Mondays I’m in class from 9 AM–5 PM, Tuesdays from 11 AM–12:30 PM, Wednesdays until 8 PM, Thursdays until 5 PM, and Fridays until 3 PM. I’m completely free on weekends and am also happy to work with the gaps between my classes during the week. I’m flexible and would love to find a schedule that works best for you and your pets! Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I will make sure they are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including their walking routes, feeding schedule, medications, and any specific rules you have for your home or pets. I’m also very mindful of their environment and will keep doors and gates securely closed, watch for anything that could be unsafe, and never leave your pet unattended in an unfamiliar or risky situation. I’ll treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect that I would want someone to show my own home. Most importantly, I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for while you’re away!

About: Every dog is different, requiring different types of care; lazing about, long play times, or simply just having a stroll through the neighborhood. I ensure all of these needs are met regardless of the type of dog. Open availability Wednesday thru Friday, if you would like to book any other days, I am open for the conversation! Weekdays, weekends or even holidays. If you have specific requirements of me, I will do everything to meet them, from your home to your pets needs. From every mess they make.

About: I have grow up with all kinds of Pets. I live on a bunch of land and I love to go for walks. My family always have me go and pet/house sit for them when they go on vacations. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I go to school online so I’m always home. My child loves to go on walks, so I’m always going on walks. I do not have any rules about animals on furniture because I love to cuddle them. I will let them out, feed them, take them on walks, make sure they have water, and love on them when I’m not doing anything

About: Animals have been apart of my life growing up while showing livestock. Over 15 years worth of caring for not only my show livestock but others as well, and am ready to give you, and your pet, a great experience! I currently have a Corgi and a Springer Spaniel. I take my corgi along just about everywhere I go when I can and has been quite a few places across Texas for Livestock Shows and visiting family. I work full-time during the weekdays until about 4. I am out of town some-weekends and some weekends I am in town. I do this for a small, part-time gig. Currently my dogs stay outside in the backyard when I’m away at work. They are kennel trained for when they need to be. Otherwise they are usually inside with us. I frequently get them out and about to either to the dog park or to different stores for socialization and training

About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.

Sara was so great. She checked in on our 3 dogs while we were on vacation. She was communicative and sent lots of pics and thorough updates. She was respectful of our home, too, and we felt very secure leaving her to take care of things. Will definitely use again in the future.

Kristy is the BEST! She is amazing with my 15.5 year old cat, Luna. My older cat doesn’t like many people-but she loves Kristy! We will ALWAYS ask her first, to watch our beloved Luna, when we need a cat sitter. We get regular daily photos and updates. She communicates with me! Kristy is an amazing sitter

We are Blessed to have Kristy care for our 16 year old cat/fur baby, Luna. We are so happy to have her watch Luna because she’s not only a beautiful person inside & outside, but she’s loving, trustworthy & conscientious! Luna takes a day to get used to anything new. But she loves Kristy & when we arrive back home from our travels, Luna looks better than when we left! She walks around for a few days looking for something. I swear she’s wondering where her friend, Kristy is? Everything is always clean and she even came twice per day, on the last few days. She sends me the best pictures of our LuLu! I hope she will continue bless us with her loving care for our cat

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lorena on Rover is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $22 per visit. 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 of October 2026, there are 400 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lorena. 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
