“Shawnee did an excellent job house sitting & watching our girl Missy during our vacation. This was our first time using Rover, so we weren’t sure of what to expect. But, we were absolutely thrilled knowing that Missy was well taken care of & loved while we were away. She went above & beyond to help care for Missy, and she also took excellent care of the house too! 100% would recommend!”
“Robert did a phenomenal job with copper. Very communicative each day. I can tell she was well cared for when we got home. Copper’s behavior when we arrive home from a trip can be a clear indicator of how she was cared for.”
“Lori was great! She stayed at my house for 4 nights and took great care of my pup! Her communication was good and I received an update every night with photos from the day. When my flight was delayed, she offered to come back and help! Will definitely use Lori again when she’s available!!😊”
“Daniel was great with the fur babies. He was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. Both babies are long haired and he cleaned up all the leaves they brought in. He left the house cleaner then when he arrived.”
“We were nervous leaving our fur babies because we’ve had a bad experience in the past. We hired Jessica for overnight for a 3 day weekend. She came for a meet and greet and was so good even with our big Merle! We have a pet cam, so were able to see how often Jessica was checking on our babies and she was absolutely top notch! We couldn’t be more pleased! We’ll definitely use again!”
“Melissa was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I were out of the country for a week and were nervous leaving our puppy for the first time. Melissa took amazing care of her and sent photo updates all the time, which really put us at ease. Our dog loved playing with her dogs and it was nice that she had a separate area for just her in case she got overwhelmed and needed to relax. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Having Isabella at our house was such a huge relief. We were gone for a week and she sent lots of pictures of our dogs and stayed in contact with me the whole week. It provided such a peace of mind knowing our dogs and our home were well cared for so we could enjoy our family vacation! I will absolutely book her again in the future!”
“Shanae did a great job with my pupper while I was out of town for 4 days. I did not worry one time. She kept in touch with me, sent photos, and took great care of Bailey. =)”
“Annie stayed at our house with our 3 dogs for a week. They absolutely loved her and she took amazing care of them - including giving them their meds. We’ll definitely ask her to stay again the next time we’re out of town!”
“Ashley is awesome. We're new to the area and finding someone who cares about animals as much as we do is a relief. We were able to spend the day as a family and know that out dogs where in great care. Ashley went out of her way to come introduce herself even before the scheduled date. She took great care of our house while we were gone and couldn't be more thankful. Thank you Ashely can't wait to use her again soon.”
“Abbey is fan-freaking-tastic! We came home to happy and well taken care of ladies. Abbey sent us such great pictures of our girls and took wonderful care of our home. She went above and beyond with help around the house and the handwritten note was just *chef’s kiss* Highly recommend and hope to book with her again!!”
“Aleigha was great with our dog, Leo! She was super personable and attentive, and kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and messages. We felt totally comfortable knowing Leo was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have been taking care of and watching all sorts of animals since I was 13! I have a network of clients including friends and family that rely on me and trust me to take care of their furry (or feathered/scaley) babies. I work full time (M-F 9-5) as a legal assistant at an attorney’s office! I’m pretty flexible outside of those hours. I’m located in Belmont but am willing to work in the surrounding areas. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing is my number one priority! I always follow whatever instructions I am left and keep you in the loop along the way with some pictures here and there.
About: Hello my name is Mindy. I am new to Rover but look forward to working with you and your babies. I will treat them like they are my own because who is kidding these are not your animals they are like your children and deserve all the love and the best care they can have because that is what they do for us everyday. I have been caring for all types of animals for at least 20 years. My experience ranges from newborns to old souls, from dogs, cats, some farm animals and exotics and I love them all. I have also been involved with rescue for as long as I can remember. I have experience with bottle feedings, medications administration and everyday care, to all the love and snuggles they could ever need. I have multiple repeat clients that I have been taking care of for years. You need to go on a trip or take a vacation I am your person because you will not have to worry and your babies will be in good hands. Thank you so much for your consideration and God Bless you and your family. I am currently working at East Gaston High School and I am out for the summer so I am available to work 7 days a week as of May 18 because school is out. I will be sure that your babies are treated with the upmost respect and care and they are in safe hands at all times while in your home.
“Alonna was great! Very responsive, good communication and took really good care of my Great Dane, Ozzy! She left my apartment in perfect condition. Will definitely book again! I highly recommend her.”
About: I have grown up around a variety of animals and have been a trusted caretaker for 3 years now! I have experience with reptiles, aquatic life, dogs, cats, small furry friends, and birds. I would love to help in any way I can! I currently have very open availability and can offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m able to adjust my schedule as needed and provide consistent, attentive care. I’m really big on making sure my pets are happy, comfortable, and taken care of. I keep them on a consistent feeding schedule, always make sure they have fresh water, and stay on top of cleaning their litter boxes regularly. They have lots of toys, cat trees, and little things to keep them entertained, and I love giving them attention and spending time with them. I’m very attentive to their routines and needs, and I treat them like my babies.
“Kona took to Tiffany right away! Tiffany was great and sent numerous photos of her and Kona during the day. She even gave Kona a toy to bring home! Would definitely recommend Tiffany if you’re looking for a dog sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lowell on Rover is $58.85 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 2,997 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lowell. 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 Lowell 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 Lowell 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 Lowell 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.
