“Elizabeth did a house sitting for Bella (14), Mookie (5) and Mavi (9 months). We were very nervous about leaving the dogs especially the puppy for 3 and half days. Our dogs are used to sleeping with us and getting a lot of attention. The older dog also requires a diaper when she is in the house. Elizabeth did a FANTASTIC job. She sent pictures and updates throughout the visit which truly helped us feel comfortable with her care. I would HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am! If im needed earlier I can make it work as well. My schedule may be more open soon depending on jobs. Pet care come first for me so no need to worry about anything preventing me from that. I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.

About: Hi! My name is Kacey I have been dog sitting the last two years and recently started boarding within the last 8 months. I grew up with German shepherds and Rottweilers which helped me to be able to handle big dogs. When I’m not busy I like to volunteer at shelters and take one of their pups out even for a few hours and go on walks. In my professional life I am a CNA and I care for elderly people w/ dementia and some special needs children. I am about to start a dog training course and hopefully make that my career one day😊😊 My schedule is very flexible, since I do online classes I’m almost always home & my senior clients are 1-2 times a week. When I am not here my fiance will be here so your pup will always have someone to play with😊 In my home the dogs have their own bedroom connected to mine. It includes a queen sized bed, several dog beds and crates. I am constantly letting them outside since I have a 3 month old puppy and he needs potty breaks every couple of hours. Their days are filled with tons of walks, toys, treats and mostly cuddles 💕💕

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages for more than 9 years, pets of my neighbors, friends and my own pets, I consider that they need the best care in the world as they give everything for us being our companions on this journey that is life, talking a little about my experience, I have taken care of small and large pets to bathe and feed them and walk them, I have training in the face of any altercation on the street. Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.

About: My experience comes from a lifelong love of animals. I cared for my childhood dog from the time I was young until he passed away at 15 years old. Throughout his life, I was responsible for feeding him, spending quality time with him, ensuring he was comfortable, and providing extra care as he became a senior dog.This experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of understanding a pet's individual needs. I know that pets are family members, and I treat every animal with the same love, compassion, and attention that I gave my own dog. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work remotely from home Monday through Friday. This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. Since I'm home most of the time, I can provide pets with consistent attention, supervision, and care, helping them feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention during walks, playtime, and daily activities to ensure pets stay safe and happy. I also keep pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they are away. Having cared for my own dog throughout his life, including his senior years, I understand the importance of patience, reliability, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve.

“Leslie went above and beyond caring for moose for a week. She helped in numerous ways to make sure our couch was protected from our over eager puppy and even bought him some new toys! She took care of our house well and was so generously flexible when our ac broke mid trip. She clearly loves dogs and I would highly recommend booking her for sitting!!”

About: Loving and Experienced Pet & Home Care I've always had a deep love for animals of all kinds, so I'm not easily squeamish. My biggest concern is always safety, both for the pets and myself. As long as I understand what's expected of me and what your pet needs, I'm confident in my ability to provide excellent care. Most of my experience has been with cats. I've had two of my own and cared for nine kittens at once. I've also spent plenty of time around multi-cat households and looked after cats with all sorts of personalities. Dogs are close to my heart too. I grew up with two and have since cared for dogs of different ages and temperaments. More recently, I've taken on extended house sits with multiple dogs, getting to know their daily routines and making sure they have plenty of attention while their owners are away. I've cared for fish and smaller animals as well. One of my more memorable experiences was keeping a rat receiving hospice care comfortable during its final days while its owner was away. I know how much these little companions mean to the people who love them. When it comes to your home, I'm just as attentive. I grew up in a household where my parents had nearly professional standards for cleanliness, and those habits have stayed with me. I naturally keep things tidy and take pride in leaving a space in excellent condition. I'll treat your home with respect and make sure everything is just as you left it, if not a little better. I also understand how important it is to feel connected to your pets when you're away. I'm happy to send photos and updates, and I'll always reach out if something needs your attention. Ultimately, I want your pets to feel safe and loved in their own home while you enjoy your time away without worrying about them. I'm an artist and writer who works remotely, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I spend a lot of time at home working on my projects, and I really enjoy having animals around to keep me company. I actually find that looking after pets is good for my own routine too. It gives me a reason to step away from my work, get outside, and have a little structure to my day. I enjoy getting to know each pet's personality and settling into a rhythm that works for both of us. I grew up in a household where my parents had near professional standards for cleanliness, so keeping things tidy and in order comes naturally to me. I bring that same care and respect into every home I stay in. When it comes to pets, I do my best to maintain the routines they're already comfortable with. I know how important consistency can be, especially when their favorite humans are away. I take the time to learn their personalities and preferences so they can feel safe and at ease with me. I'm also happy to look after plants, bring in mail, and tend to other household needs while you're gone. My goal is for you to come home to happy pets and a home that feels just as good as you left it.

Caring for pets is more than just a job for me—it’s a responsibility I take seriously, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether in your home or mine, I strive to maintain a stress-free, happy environment for your furry friend. 🐾 In Your Home: ✔️ Routine & Comfort – I stick to your pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, and playtime to reduce stress. ✔️ Clean & Safe Environment – I respect your space, ensuring everything stays clean while keeping your pet’s area tidy. ✔️ Extra Love & Attention – Whether your dog needs belly rubs, playtime, or a little extra reassurance, I’m there for them. ✔️ Specialized Care – From administering medication to accommodating senior dogs or puppies, I adjust to each pet’s unique needs. 🐶 In My Home (if applicable): ✔️ A Safe & Loving Space – My home is pet-friendly, with plenty of space for play and relaxation. ✔️ Supervised Play & Exercise – Dogs get the attention and activity they need to stay happy and healthy. ✔️ Crate & Non-Crate Options – I accommodate whatever setup your dog is used to for a smooth transition. ✔️ Like One of My Own – Your pet will get plenty of love, cuddles, and care while staying with me! I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease when leaving their furry companions in someone else's care. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet!

About: I grew up with big dogs, and one little dog. My biggest responsibility as a child was taking care of the household pets. We always had two dogs at a time totaling 4 dogs throughout my childhood. I currently have cats due to space and time (and I love them). I am the friend that gets called to walk the dogs or watch them. As a teen, I raised a puppy and took it to training classes giving me some hands on experience. When walking dogs, I’m especially cautious and attentive. I always stay aware of our: surroundings, potential hazards, and other dogs to help ensure every walk is safe and enjoyable! I am pretty open weekdays. I would like to increase my activity levels with walking dogs. I find it enjoyable. It also helps me get my day moving and keep me motivated. I am not currently offering at home care due to having cats that do not like newbies. If I were to care for your pets in your own home -- I would make sure to discuss with you their routines, fav toys, activities they like, if they like pets or not, etc. I know how uncomfortable it can be for someone new to be in your home and I'm sure pets can feel the same!

“Jennifer did a great job pet sitting for my dog at my house - my dog is very shy and anxious, and she really took to Jennifer, so it worked out very well. My doggo is a rescue and a bit difficult, sometimes won't eat or go outside if she's uneasy, especially with new people, so I was thrilled she had such a good time with Jennifer.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lorenzo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 807 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lorenzo. 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 Lorenzo 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 Lorenzo 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 Lorenzo 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
