“I don’t know how lucky we got to have Jennie and her husband check in and be there for our pets on our first rover experience because it was exceptional! I don’t know if this is how she handles everyone’s pets but she went above and beyond to make sure our girls were taken care of! The pictures she would take to update us on her visits and what they were doing gave us ease of mind to focus on being present during our trip! Jennie, thank you it truly means the world!”
About: I’ve fostered and nursed back to health many dogs from the Dallas Animal Shelter! I also currently have 2 goofy Rottweilers named Honey and Rocco! I’m currently working part time as I’m trying to start a family, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! I have a fenced in yard with LOTS of toys and shade. I also have 2 friendly pups who love to play and make new friends!
About: I’m an ER veterinary technician that has been a vet tech for over 8 years and I’ve been doing ER for about 5 of those. I love what I do and couldn’t see myself doing anything besides taking care of animals! I even know how to take care of some exotics! I have 2 cats and 2 dogs of my own:) I am currently at home, I just recently had a baby so I am looking to do something like this so that it is more flexible with my needs! I have a lot of experience with all different dogs and cats and can easily crate them if needed! I have a decent sized backyard as well
“Jimmy was very responsive, kind, and patient with our kitty who was too freaked out by our absence to come out of hiding much of the time. He made sure she had everything she needed and snagged a photo of her for us every time, though. Will definitely hire again!”
“Ashley is absolutely wonderful! She is so loving and caring with my pup. I feel completely comfortable knowing he was in such attentive and trustworthy hands. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
About: I’ve always grown up taking care of family and friend’s pets as if they were my own. I believe pets are just as important as any other family member, so I always treat them with love, care, and respect. I currently work on an as needed basis within healthcare, so when I am off I would be more than happy to help care for your pets! I would approach your home with the understanding that it is your pet’s safe space - I will do everything to make sure they feel at ease and keep them happy!
About: I would love to care for your dog or cat! I provide sittings, drop-in visits, and walks. I’m based in Murphy but willing to travel anywhere in the DFW area. My availability is very open and flexible. I will spend many hours with your pet and provide regular updates. I’m more than willing to watch your pets during vacations! I offer dog sittings and willing to stay overnight (if needed). Your dog will not be left alone for more than 3 hours. I provide regular updates and follow instructions.
“Marcia did a great job with our kitty, Tiger. We appreciate all the TLC that she provided while we were away. We recommend her services and will definitely ask for her again! Thank you.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Yuki! This was our first time using Rover, and we were pleased to see Yuki, who is usually anxious, be so comfortable with Louann. Thank you so much for giving Yuki such a good experience, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and would love to meet yours. I have a warm home with comfy furniture. I have a 7 year old Bull Terrier rescue named Baxter that loves dogs of all sizes. He loves to play and also enjoys sleep time. We live near walking trails for long walks and there is a lot of green grass outside our patio for shorter walks and easy potties. I work from home every day and the dogs will be in the house all day and night except for potty breaks. Baxter is allowed on the couch and bed and it’s ok if yours is too. If they aren’t allowed on the furniture, we can stick to that rule too. I have portable gates if needed and an extra large crate if you prefer for creating some isolated areas. About your dog: I will take dogs small and medium sized, but they must be house broken, well behaved and can be trusted to be left alone without being destructive or can be crate trained. I am a remote worker so I will be looking after your pet 24/7. Access to outside is available all day. I can walk my dog Baxter with your dog or walk them separate if they need more time independently. I can accommodate based on your baby's needs. Based on what the dogs love to do! I have a nice grass area right outside my apartment and we have a fenced dog park. There is also a great walking path nearby. Baxter the bull terrier is very friendly and cannot wait to play with your pup. Access to outside is available all day. I am a remote worker so I will be looking after your pet 24/7.
“Olivia was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of our 5 kitties. She cleaned the litters and cleaned up any messes that the kitties made. She gave us little progress reports and pictures each day of our cute babies. I would absolutely recommend her and plan on using her in the future!”
“Amy is wonderful! This is our 2nd trip with our kitty under her care and we’re about to do a third. She keeps trying with our very shy cat, which we sure appreciate! She sends pics and keeps us updated on how she’s doing. I highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! My name is Jennifer but I go by Jenny! I have a background in pet care, with 7 years of experience volunteering at a local animal rescue, pet sitting, and dog walking for a local pet service company. I also have previous experience working as a veterinary receptionist and veterinary technician. Through these experiences, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies. I’m currently attending school online, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day! I have the freedom to work around your pet’s routine and accommodate their individual needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or scheduling requests. I’ll do my best to make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, love, and care. I’m Fear Free Certified, which means I’m experienced in helping minimize fear, stress, and anxiety in both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to create a calm, positive, and comfortable environment for each animal in my care.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lucas is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Lucas 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
