Brooke was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home for a little over two weeks while caring for our 23-year-old cat, Chloe, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Coming home to such a happy, relaxed kitty was the greatest gift. It was obvious Chloe was loved, well cared for, and never felt neglected while we were away. Brooke also took exceptional care of our home—it was absolutely immaculate when we returned. She sent thoughtful daily updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation knowing everything was in great hands. Brooke is trustworthy, kind, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We would hire her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable house and pet sitter!

Amanda was wonderful with my two senior dogs. I always get nervous leaving them, especially as they’ve gotten older and need a bit more TLC but she handled everything beautifully. It was clear they were in good hands, and I came home to happy pups. I will definitely be using her again!

Alix was a dream to work with. We have a skittish Mastiff that usually takes awhile to warm up to people. Alix was able to earn our pup's trust in no time, which was peace of mind. On top of this, she provided frequent updates while we were away. Would definitely recommend!

About: I’ve done a lot of dog sitting in Boston and for friends and family over the years, and I genuinely love it. I didn't have pets of my own as a kid, but always loved being around dogs. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs — big, small, high-energy, or total couch potatoes. I stick to their usual routines, make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and just try to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. Lots of updates, lots of love, and happy pups are always the goal. Expect many photos and selfies. I work in a nursing home, and love bring pets along with me to visit the residents if approved by the owner! I work a typical Monday-Friday 8-5pm and have about an hour commute. I am available for evenings or early morning walks, as well as weekend/overnight boarding or house sitting. I live in an apartment in Charlestown with a fenced in back yard. Pets are allowed. I live with two family members with a lot of pet experience who also support boarding pets. I am happy to stay in someone's home if needed.

I see why Woody has gotten so many positive reviews about both the care they provide for the dogs but also the person they are. I am so particular about who cares for my dogs while I’m away and woody made me feel so secure!!!! My dogs adored her and so do I!! They updated me throughout the day and sent personalized videos. They were attentive and listened carefully when I discussed my dogs and what they’re used to. You can tell she really cares. On a personal note - Woody is a bright light of a person, such a pleasure to have found them and met them for future dog sitting needs. Thank you Woody

She also walked Peyton as much as Peyton asked (sometimes 3 times in the span of 5 hours), even in the cold outside! I highly recommend her, we will definitely re book her in the future!

My two dogs can be... a lot. And I'd never had anyone stay with them at my house before, so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect before I left on my trip. But Cory was a pro. Not only did my dogs fall in love with him but I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about them thanks to Cory's regular updates and excellent communication. I'll book him again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Cory!

Amazing experience with Luke! Our dogs are pretty spoiled and we were hesitant to try Rover since we usually leave them with family. But Luke was so accommodating, even with our shy dog who takes time to warm up to new people. He was communicative throughout, sent us great photo updates, and was just the sweetest with them. Highly recommend him!

She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made it so much easier to enjoy our trip knowing they were doing well. When we got home, both Alli and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sara genuinely loves animals and treated our pets like they were her own.

Brooke was wonderful with my senior dog Lucky. She came over for a long meet and greet and got know his routine before we confirmed the booking. She was able to administers his medication and take care of all his needs during the stay so I knew Lucky was in good hands. She shared pictures during the visit where Lucky always looked happy and relaxed. So glad to know we had someone take such good care of my little man.

Brandi and her family were an absolute delight and great caretakers of Moss! I had last-minute changes in holiday travel plans and am so glad that she was available to watch Moss; I am also very appreciative of her flexibility with pickup time when my return flights were delayed. It is clear that Moss had a phenomenal week. I received regular pictures and updates on his time with Brandi, her family, her dog and other dogs as well; everyone got along swimmingly. Moss got lots of attention, outside time, and park trips! Overall, I would highly recommend Brandi: it is clear that she loves animals and works hard to make sure both pet and pet parent are happy.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jenna was absolutely amazing! She treated our dog like he was one of her own — taking him on many walks, playing with him regularly, and showing him the same love and attention we give him at home every day. We were initially skeptical about using Rover since it was our first time, but we didn’t want to board our dog — we wanted him to stay in his own home and feel comfortable. Jenna exceeded every expectation! She sent us daily photos and frequent updates throughout the day and night, which gave us total peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking with her again! 🐾

Wesley was absolutely fantastic from the very start! You can tell right away that he has spent plenty of time around dogs — his calm and confident demeanor made our pups feel safe almost instantly. One of our dogs usually barks at anyone who comes into the house, but to our surprise, she went straight to Wesley with zero hesitation. That told us everything we needed to know about how comfortable she felt with him! He not only took great care of our dogs but also kept our home safe and in perfect condition. Wesley is incredibly responsive, respectful, and professional — communication was always quick and clear. We felt at ease the entire time knowing everything was in good hands. We’re definitely going to be repeat customers and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets and home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lost Creek

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Lost Creek on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,725 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lost Creek. 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 Lost Creek 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 Lost Creek 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 Lost Creek 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 Lost Creek. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
