“Mark was incredible…he did overnight stays with our 11 year old blind, deaf pup without any hesitation. He is a great communicator and left the house in perfect condition. As this was a new arrangement, he asked questions to make sure something wasn’t out of the ordinary for our extraordinary pup, which I appreciate as he has truly had only 1 sitter in nearly 11 years! I cannot recommend him enough and we are actively booking out the rest of the year with him!”
“Veronica was wonderful and fantastic with our dog and two cats! By the end of the stay she was practically family. Very communicative and responsive. And very helpful when we were delayed getting back. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Margot was absolutely amazing. We got constant updates and photos which we so appreciated. When we got home the house was just as we left it and so clean. She left the guest room so clean which we didn’t except given we’ve had other pet sitters who have left the house very dirty. When we met her we fell in love and will definitely be rebooking if she’ll allow us!! 10000/10 🤍🤍🤍”
“Emily was WONDERFUL! She took great care of my 2 dogs, followed all instructions that I left for her, and she maintained excellent communications throughout her stay. She provided house sitting services and it was a relief to find someone I could trust to not only take care of my dogs, but also ensure that my house stayed in order while I was away. She was knowledgeable about working with dogs that struggle with separation anxiety, which was a huge plus. I recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who is thoughtful, thorough and attentive.”
“Allison did a great job housesitting with my cat Annie! She gave her lots of attention and sent me daily updates and pictures/videos. I would recommend Allison and book with her again.”
“Becca was phenomenal!! We received multiple pictures and videos of the pups and knew they were being so well taken care of while we were away. She was respectful, responsive, and we cannot wait to use her again!”
“Lena was great! She sent updates with many pictures of Bosun and Ferry carrying on happily without us! She messaged us with questions as well, which we appreciated because it showed she cared about making sure things carried on as they would if we were home. We are booking her help again!”
“I would without a doubt reach out to Randi in hopes of her being available to dog sit Ruby again and highly recommend her services!! The house was super clean and loved getting pictures while we were gone. Thank you so much!!”
“Always amazing! One of my dogs has an ear infection and Alethea kept her on her medication schedule, didnt miss a beat. Fyi, my dog does not make that easy. Alethea handles everything!”
“We couldn't have been more pleased with Mikella! She was perfect and Ollie loved her -- I think he would have been happy if I hadn't come home and he got to stay with her! She took him on lots of walks and sent me pictures every day. I will definitely use her again if she is available.”
“We have used Daniel several times now and he continues to be a wonderful dog and house sitter! We always know that Hank will be well taken care of and our home will be as well! Can’t recommend him enough!”
“McKenzie stayed at our place with Hubbell for over a week over Christmas. It was a big deal to find someone reliable and trustworthy for so many reasons, but the time of the year and how far we traveled from home were big factors. McKenzie completely eliminated any stress we might have had. She was so communicative annd thoughtful and sent photos and videos. She clearly bonded with our boy. She sent thorough updates. She took great care of our home. She’s the first person we’re going to with any pet sitting needs in the future. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Janei was great! She is super responsive in the app and she was so sweet when we met in person for a meet and greet with Olive. She took great care of Olive and our place while we were out of town and would definitely book with her again!”
“Ada stayed overnight at my house with Bailey. She did an excellent job. Bailey loved her. She walked Bailey in the neighborhood and cuddled with her...No wonder Bailey loves her. She also left my house very nice and clean after staying there for 5 days. I will definitely call her again when Bailey needs a sitter.”
“Kim stayed several nights with our kitty and senior Greyhound and we (and they!) were very happy with her. Both our pets require medication, and have complicated feedings, and she handled it all just great! We greatly appreciate her concern and care for our pets and our home.”
“The dogs had a great week! Steven was wonderful with our pups, and especially with our handicapable old man dog. Everything was well taken care of and exactly how we left it which was great to come home to! Thank you!”
“Carolyn is a wonderful pet/house sitter. This is the second time she’s taken care of our pup, and both times she did a great job. She’s very responsible and careful. She left our house clean and orderly. We hope to use her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lorraine
Allison is awesome. The fist time she came over I was showing her around the house and my shy dog walked right over to her and sat down next to her. The last time she stayed at the house my flight was canceled and I had to fly out the next day. I was letting her know what was happening and she was the one that asked if I needed her to stay another night. My dogs love her and she loves them. And the house is always in good order upon my return.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lorraine on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Lorraine 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 Lorraine 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 Lorraine 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.

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.
