“I am so very happy that I found Lisa. She stayed with my two little dogs for 10 days while i was out of the country. Knowing that she was there with them enabled me to enjoy my travel without worry. One of my dogs was finishing medications and she knew exactly what to do to make sure he took them. My dogs also think she is the best!!”
“Caralisa dealt with senior dog meds and walks with no issues. She updated me on how things were going, and did not leave a messy house. I would definitely use her again!”
“Cameron was great! My fussy dogs were at ease with her right away. She responded quickly to messages and helped ease my pet parent anxiety. We will be working with her again for sure!”
“Amy was a caring and fun cat sitter for Cal and Cookie. She played with them and sent pictures and messages while we were away. She also left the home clean and ready for our return. Thanks Amy!”
“Kelsie did a wonderful job of caring for our two dogs, cat, and rabbits. She is very professional, reliable and communicative, and we would definitely have her sit for us again.”
“Megan was so amazing! She was able to watch our senior dog and she was so well taken care of! We felt comfortable with her navigating our unique senior dogs needs and we were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about our doggy. We also felt really comfortable with Megan in our space and I’m pretty sure she left our house better than she found it, it was so clean and tidy. We are grateful we found Megan!”
About: I've been housesitting and petsitting since 2009! I have experience primarily with cats and dogs, and I also have extensive plant and yard care experience for those extended vacations! I would love to take care of your pets and home during your much-needed vacation. I'm also comfortable caring for your furless babies, too, including birds, fish, and reptiles! I currently work part-time and attend school online at OSU part-time, so my flexible schedule will fit perfectly with you and your pet's needs! I am primarily available in afternoons and on weekends. I frequently split my time between Eugene and Corvallis. Your home is you and your pets' haven! I aim to take care of every home and all pets with the same attentive care I would give my own. Safety, cleanliness, and respect are my top priorities! For housesitting requests, please be clear about your expectations for how much/little time you would like for me to spend at your home during the day, potty break routines, sleeping arrangements, etc. I love getting as much information as possible so I can do my absolute best caring for your pets and home!
“Destiny was wonderful. She watched all 5 of our animals. 1 cat, 2 senior Chihuahuas and 2 puppies. That is not an easy task. Upon returning home I could tell they were all well taken care of. The house was clean (which isn't easy with 2 puppies) and she even left music in for them when she left. A kind soul that I will absolutely trust my animals with again.”
“Alivia sat for Sage over the Christmas holidays while we were out of town and was fantastic. She kept us updated and took great care him. We always feel a little wary leaving him but it makes it a lot easier having someone like Alivia to take care of him. I wholeheartedly recommend her to look after your pets!”
“Sydney took great care of our high anxiety pup for us on very short notice. She is personable and her love of dogs shows. We will use her services again for any future trips, where we just can’t take our high spirited crazy man with us.”
About: Hi, I’m Tessa - I run T’s One Acre Bark & Breakfast! 🐾 With one acre to play on and a cozy home to relax in, I give every pet safe, loving care. I’m Pet First Aid & CPR certified, have completed a course in Veterinary Assistant training, and am trained/certified in Fear Free™ - Leaders in Animal Wellbeing. While studying Fear Free, I have learned valuable information regarding dog body language, stress signals, and how to create a calm, positive environment for each pet. This means I use gentle handling, reward-based interactions, and stress-reducing techniques to make sure your furry family member feels comfortable and cared for at all times. My goal is to provide not just a safe place, but one where pets truly enjoy their stay, whether they’re here to play, rest, or cuddle up for some quiet time. We love visitors of all walks of life; seniors, puppies, and everything in between. We’ll treat your pet like one of our own and keep you updated every step of the way ❤️ In addition to boarding and daycare, I also offer drop-in visits; perfect for pets who feel most comfortable at home. Whether it’s potty breaks, mealtime, playtime, or a little extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure your pet’s routine stays on track and they get the attention they deserve. Beyond errands needing to get done or going to town for appointments, I am always home. My husband assists in care when he is home as well. We have a lovely dog of our own - so they are always in our schedule with potty breaks, play, eating times and everything in between! Our acre is fenced and ready for exploring, relaxing, and playtime! We also have three children that are eager to shower your family member with an abundance of love and attention.
About: As a pre-veterinary student, I provide more than just pet sitting—I bring knowledge, patience, and a genuine passion for animal care. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and other small animals through both personal ownership and animal care work. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs, including administering medications when needed. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll provide attentive, reliable care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. I'm currently home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Aside from occasional appointments and errands, I'm home throughout the day. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, as I have pets of my own with established care schedules. Adding your pet into that routine allows me to provide consistent feeding, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed), and plenty of companionship. I always work to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and any household rules so I can provide care that's both safe and consistent. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and closely supervise interactions. I carefully introduce new situations at each pet's comfort level and never leave animals in unsafe situations. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the home and the animals with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any specific care requests exactly as directed. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a pre-veterinary student, I'm attentive to changes in an animal's behavior or health and won't hesitate to contact you—and, if necessary, seek veterinary care—if I have concerns.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and believe every pet deserves the same care, attention, and affection they get at home. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime to older pets who need a gentler touch. I’m active and love going on walks, but I also know how important cuddles, patience, and routines are for pets to feel secure. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping your furry friend company, I treat every pet as if they were my own I am a stay at home mom, so I can easily be with your pets all day! I am very active, so I love to take walks and do lots of potty breaks. We have a fenced yard so they can play outside. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-friendly, and free from hazards. I keep a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, and playtime so pets feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, to keep things as familiar as possible for their pet. I also send regular photo and text updates so pet parents have peace of mind knowing their furry loved one is happy and safe.
“Elene was amazing! She was communicative with any questions she had for us and sent regular updates with pictures of our pets. She took great care of our pets which gave us that peace of mind knowing our pets would be well taken care of. I would absolutely request Elene's services again.”
“We couldn’t ask for anyone better than Kaylee! She takes the absolute best care of our dog and cat while we are away that we never have an ounce of worry. Our animals love her, and she is extremely reliable and great with communication. We cannot recommend Kaylee enough, we wish we could give her 10 stars. Thank you!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lowell on Rover is $30 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 596 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.
