“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our German Shepherd and Husky during our week away. From the start, she was communicative, attentive, and clearly experienced with larger, high-energy breeds. She sent us photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. She also handled our German Shepherd perfectly, even on his more stubborn “butthead” moments — with patience, confidence, and care. It was obvious she knew exactly how to read him and respond appropriately. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and that means everything to us. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring sitter.”
“Jessica did a great job taking care of Cher Bear and Ben! We could tell they were happy when we came home. All of our plants looked great and Jessica is very thorough and tidy. Thank you! We look forward to using Jessica 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!”
“Ashton did a wonderful job with our pups - our home was immaculately clean still when we returned. She was thoughtful with the dogs and just a great sitter. 10/10 would book again.”
About: I am an animal lover with decades of experience whose family often refers to as the 'Animal Whisperer!' I've owned and taken care of pets (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, rabbits) for as long as I can remember. I have experience with raising and potty training puppies. I take pride in ensuring my pets' space is clean so they feel safe and comfortable. I'm retired and would love to spend my free time caring for your animals! I am currently retired so my main priority is to give your pets the best care! I am very flexible and will work with you to determine the best schedule for both of us. I take pride in ensuring my pets' space is clean so they feel safe and comfortable. I have no problem playing with them outdoors, walking them or just being there to comfort them. I love to cuddle and sweet talk them so they can continue to feel your love while you're gone!
“Daniel was absolutely amazing! Our dog can be a handful since he has severe anxiety and he was great with him! He sent us pictures and updates! I knew my fur baby was getting lots of love when we were away and that made my heart so happy! I 100% recommend him!”
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.
“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.”
“Bri was great with our senior dogs for the 3 night stay with them. She was very communicative with us and kept us up to date on how they were doing. She made us feel comfortable that we were leaving them in the right hands. She was able to give them their medication every day with no issues, and gave them lots of outdoor time. We were extremely happy with her stay and are definitely going to be booking her again in the future!”
“Isabella did a great job watching my two dogs and taking care of the house. She sent many pictures and videos of my dogs during her stay. My dogs enjoyed their time with her. I have already booked her for my next trip.”
“Kathy was wonderful! Absolutely great with our pup — even having to take him unexpectedly to the vet while we were away. She coordinated everything beautifully and made us feel at ease knowing our dog was in great care. Highly recommend!”
“Annie did a great job taking care of our 6 month puppy. She was very patient and continued following his established routine for potty breaks and feeding. It was such a comfort knowing she was here watching over him. We will definitely use Annie again!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lowell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lowell on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,047 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.
