Ceone was amazing! This was the longest I have ever left my dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. She had excellent communication throughout my trip, and it was clear from her updates that my dogs absolutely loved her. My dogs managed to get into a few things while I was away, and Ceone handled each situation calmly and perfectly. She was incredibly patient, caring, and responsible, and I would definitely use her again. I highly recommend Ceone to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!

This is my second time having Jennifer watch my pups and she was amazing as usual. The pups love when she stays with them and I’m so comfortable having her stay at the house when I’m away. Jennifer is very accommodating to our needs and will work with you to help in any way she can. Will continue working with her in the future.

Jessica was a terrific pet and house sitter!! She was very attentive to our dogs' needs and went the extra mile to accommodate our schedule. She came early, stayed late and left the house in perfect condition. The fact that her day job involves working remotely was an added bonus. Our pups were well cared for, happy and healthy. We will definitely be using Jessica again.

About: As someone who works remotely, I'm fortunate to have the flexibility to be available whenever your pup needs attention, whether it's for a walk in the park, some playtime, or just a reassuring presence while you're away. Your dog's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I look forward to providing them with the love and care they deserve during our time together. I’m very flexible! I work remotely so I can care for your pet at any time, anywhere. Since I am home all day I have plenty of time to tend for your pet! I live in a pet friendly apartment with a dog park and dog spa in my building! I have no problem hosting your pup at my space.

Lauren was wonderful! A true expert, she was fantastic with our very large puppy. We got just the right amount of communication to know our girl was well cared for without feeling guilty for not bringing her on vacation. Our pup absolutely LOVED being at home instead of boarding and we'll definitely reach out to Lauren again!

About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each pet's unique needs. My experience includes everything from training and caring for energetic puppies to providing gentle support for senior pets and attentive care for animals with medical needs or illnesses. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. Whether your pet needs playtime, patience, medication, or extra TLC, you can count on me to provide dependable, experienced care that gives you peace of mind. I currently work 12 hour shifts at the hospital from 7am to 7pm only 3 days a week. These days are typically Sunday-Tuesday as I make my own schedule. With having four days off, I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I can board any time during the week, especially with my weekends being open. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member can feel at ease. My apartment community features a secure dog park, plenty of sidewalks for daily walks, and beautiful natural areas for safe exploration and exercise. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or leisurely walks, they'll have plenty of opportunities to stay active. I also have a friendly, well-socialized cat who has been around dogs for most of his life and is comfortable sharing his space with respectful canine guests. I always introduce pets thoughtfully and monitor interactions to help ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special requests, so your pet receives consistent, loving care while you're away.

Kelly is the dog sitter I've been searching for and Paco and I are so happy to have finally found her! She came to house sit in my house for my dog Paco from a Monday morning to Friday afternoon and I finally got to take a vacation! I didn't worry about my best friend for one minute since I could tell Kelly was treating my best friend like he was her own! She bonded with Paco and I know he felt loved and well taken care of while I was away. Invaluable!! I will hire Kelly again ANYTIME I need someone to take care of my BFF. I can't say thank you enough! Rachel

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful. She took exceptional care of my cat, Mya, and kept me updated throughout the entire stay with messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She was kind, professional, communicative, and clearly cares deeply about animals. The biggest compliment I can give is that my cat, who is normally very shy and doesn’t trust many people, became comfortable with Jennifer. That meant a lot to me and showed how patient and caring she was. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I would absolutely book her again. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pets. Thank you so much!

We came home today to three very happy and excited pups, and it was obvious they were well cared for while we were away. Our 17-year-old pup, who needs lots of love and affection, looked especially content, which meant so much to us. Thank you for taking such good care of our dogs while we were away. We truly appreciate it and hope to have you back again in the future!

Raquel took great care of my dog and left my home in pristine condition while house sitting. She was highly communicative throughout the stay and made sure that my dog went out for plenty of walks and had lots of indoor play time. My dog does not do well with other dogs and Raquel did a great job in avoiding any issues while on walks. I would highly recommend Raquel’s services!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lowes Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Lowes Island on Rover is $61.05 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 10,326 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lowes Island. 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 Lowes Island 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 Lowes Island 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 Lowes Island 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 Lowes Island. On Rover:

  • 91% 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.
