“I wish I could give more than a 5 star review! My babies were so well loved while I was out of town. I got pictures and updates every day. Jingyi was a consummate professional and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!!”
About: Hi there! I'm the pet caretaker of your dreams; one walk with me and your dog won't ever wanna leave... Nah, I'm just kidding! No one could ever take care of your pet as well as you can, but I'll definitely give it my best shot! I've loved and cared for animals my whole life, including being a long-time dog and cat owner. I'll cuddle your lap dog or roughhouse with your giant Great Dane; whatever you need, I'm up for the challenge. I am comfortable and experienced with walking, house sitting, and playing with all kinds of dogs, having been providing these services in a non-professional capacity for friends and family for years until I discovered Rover. My secret weapon that makes me such a good pet caretaker is my low-key obsession with puppers and doggos of all kinds; they're just so cute that I can't help but fall in love with them and thus provide them the best care that I am able to give. I'm so excited to meet your baby; I promise that I will care for him or her just as I would my own!
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
About: I have worked in the vet industry for several years and cared for animals as small as a mouse to as big as a horse. I also trained service dogs throughout college, so I am well equipped to meet your dogs needs. I currently work in the medical sales industry and tend to have a very flexible work schedule. Name the time and I will be there! I have worked with and cared for animals professionally for several years, and I guarantee that I will do whatever is in my power to provide your pet with the best care possible.
About: Hello! I'm Alaunah, a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of professional pet-sitting and animal welfare experience! I prioritize safety, well-being, flexibility, and availability for you and your pets' needs! I have experience in administering oral, topical, subcutaneous, and intramuscular medications. Additionally, I am versatile and open to other needs upon request. I have a huge passion for all animals and would love to ease your mind while you are away! I am currently a part-time nanny, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I typically nanny Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays 6am-3:30pm. Otherwise, I am available throughout most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays! I respect, value, and attend to your pets and home. Safety is number one priority while you are away! I frequently check areas are appropriately accessible/nonaccessible for your pets (doors, latches, litterbox access, etc.) Additionally, I provide updates with pictures and videos of your beloved pets.
About: I was raised from birth with dogs around in the home! My grandmother had a golden retriever named lady and she was the best dog in the world! I have loved dogs since and believe they are so special and people need to treat them with the upmost respect! They need exercise and proper care which I have read many books and had life experience raising them. I am extremely flexible and available to help take care of pets whenever needed. I work from home so I can leave whenever needed to help out. I have a two story house with a big back yard for our dogs to play with each other if your pets needs somewhere to go. I have a Multipoo whom loves to play with other dogs.
“Kristina is a wonderful sitter. We left town without realizing we were low on cat food and she helped us sort out the situation. The kitties really like her, even our shyest guy. She is thoughtful, kind, and a great communicator. Thanks for everything!”
About: I have approximately five years of hands-on experience caring for animals through personal pet ownership, volunteering, and occasional pet sitting for friends and family while they are away on vacation. I have also volunteered at the Collin County Animal Shelter, where I work directly with dogs, helping provide care, attention, exercise, and socialization. Additionally, I have experience volunteering at a local horse ranch, where I have gained further experience working with and caring for horses. Through these experiences, I have developed a strong understanding of animal care, responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing animals with a safe, loving environment. I genuinely enjoy working with animals! My current schedule is fairly flexible. I work and attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I am generally available the rest of the week. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I am happy to work around the pet owner’s needs and schedule whenever possible. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every animal in my care. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident leaving their pets and homes in someone else’s hands. I will follow all care instructions closely, maintain the pets’ normal routines, ensure they have fresh food and water, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and keep their environment clean and secure. I will also treat each owner’s home with the utmost respect, keeping everything tidy, securing doors and windows, and making sure their home and pets are well cared for. Communication is also important to me, and I am happy to provide regular updates and pictures so owners have peace of mind while they are away.
About: Well, most & foremost I transport pets not just dogs/cats across the United States from a person buying it from a pet store or a friend, etc to their destination of choice w/my set price. I also have my certificate in USDA for pets that I’ll upload in pictures. Moving forward I’ve walked dogs, bathe a cat & dog, was a pet sitter for cats/dogs and puppies. Am very good at communicating & reading/following my clients notes when it comes to food time/preparation or anything relatable to your lovable pet. SN: am very good at belly rubs if your animal loves that since that’s an all time favorite thing for puppies or cats period 😁 Am currently self-employed working on my terms so the time needed to cater/care for a client pet is a blessing to me. I prefer weekdays the most but wouldn’t mind a weekend for some pet attention😃 my availability will be open on ALL days unless something comes up unexpectedly but am a reasonable person w/others times/days etc. I currently help/ take care of my sons father female American bully whom I love. She’s very very smart & alert. So therefore, if I welcome/get that opportunity for a new pet into my home for boarding etc pls believe am treating him/her w/all the love possible. Pet toys & pet food isn’t a problem to me either you can provide your own but am very willing and can accommodate as well on my end.
“Nina was amazing! She was communicative and I felt so comfortable leaving my two cats in her care. She sent lots of pics and my apartment looked great when I got home! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be asking her to watch my pets again. ?”
“Marcia did such a phenomenal job with her drop-ins for our Milo! She was attentive, caring, and had a ton of patience for our sometimes overly excited pup! If given the opportunity to book with her again, we would!”
“Ryan did well our pets and seemed to understand the needs and tasks required for their care. We enjoyed visiting with him. It is nice to know we can call on him should we ever need him. Thanks Ryan!”
“Melissa showed care and concern for my dog from the initial booking request through the service. Communication was excellent and she was extremely thorough in familiarizing herself with my rare breed to ensure she was the best match for our pet sitting needs. We will definitely utilize her services again and would recommend to others.”
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lucas is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $36 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.
As of November 2026, there are 6,572 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lucas. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
To find sitters in Lucas with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lucas. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
