“Ashley is amazing! Booked her to check-in on our four cats and we received so many pictures and great updates. Loved to photoshoots! I could also tell our shy cat warmed up to her immediately. Will book Ashley for pet care again!”
“Janice was excellent as always, kept me updated every day with pictures and made sure to change it the water and litter. She also brought boxes in off the porch! We love working with Janice and will be sure to book her next time as well.”
“Lindsey was everything we could hope for in a sitter for our first time using one. Peanut was not ready for boarding. He is slow to warm up. She was extra patient with him and spent extra time the 1st day. He was warming up much better each day. He had a couple of accidents and she helped clean it up. She did not have to be as caring as she was, but we are most grateful and will continue to call on her. Thank you for everything Lindsey! We could tell Peanut really appreciated your visits.”
About: I treat every animal with the compassion and empathy they deserve. Animals are apart of families and should be treated as such. From mini to extra large animals will be taken care of with the upmost respect. I currently work 11-4 Monday thru Friday but free before and after and on weekends. During the school year I am work 11-4 MWF and classes midday Thursday and Tuesday. Available early mornings and late afternoon into night and all day weekends. I give my cat the space it needs to feel comfortable and safe. I lead with a healthy diet and care for gut and teeth health. Plenty of windows for the cats to take afternoon naps. Plenty of towers and toys for the cats to be engaged and entertained.
“Kellie was so communicative with us and attentive to my dogs - we are so grateful for wonderful care for them while we were gone! Leading up to her time with our dogs she reached out to confirm and even requested time in advance to meet them and understand the lay of the land before we left.”
“We appreciate how sweet you are with our 18 year old chihuahua, Penny. She is a special pup and doesn’t always like new people. But I always feel peaceful knowing you are taking care of her and she does so well with you.”
About: I’ve had cats, dogs, bunnies, chickens, etc. my entire life, I’d like to say that I have my whole life’s worth of experience with pets, being that I have had them since before I could walk:)) I’m currently going to community college part-time, usually based in the mornings but can change. Other than school I am always free to do the job!! I will give your pets plenty of love and cuddles while also adapting to their daily needs and activities. I can even brush your dogs’ teeth if you’d like.
“Courtney was the best with my girls! She took such great care of them and gave them lots of love while I was away. It definitely made my older dog that has major anxiety feel so much better she was here to care for them. If you need someone I recommend Courtney 1000%! Thanks Courtney!”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and always treat every pet like my own. I’m reliable, follow care instructions carefully, and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM with Allen ISD and part-time at HEB on Sundays from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. My part-time schedule is flexible and can be adjusted for bookings when needed. I offer house sitting in the client’s home, where I stay overnight and care for your pets in their familiar environment. During house sitting stays, I follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. On weekdays, I may be away during work hours (8 AM–4 PM), but I return immediately after work to continue care and maintain consistency for your pets. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. Service Areas: Allen, McKinney, and Plano I’m committed to keeping your pets comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I care for pets in the client’s home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are always secured, and I double-check all entry points to keep pets safe at all times. I also monitor pets closely for behavior changes, stress, or health concerns and will immediately communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual. If the home has a fenced yard, I use it for safe outdoor time and supervised play. When outside, pets are always monitored and never left unattended. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean and following all house rules. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable, and trustworthy environment so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
“Incredible pet sitter. She even solves problems that have nothing to do with pet sitting. Seriously, this is the lady you want watching your pets. They are in the best hands!”
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m confident, attentive, and genuinely love what I do. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them plenty of love, playtime, and comfort so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. 🐾💗 I am a high school senior heavily involved in band. I have some weekends I go to my mom’s house but I will have those in my calander. I can do morning visits before 8am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and before 9am on Tuesday and Thursday. I can come in the afternoon after 4. On weekends when I’m in town I am flexible! During each visit, I can take your pet on walks, let them outside for bathroom breaks, feed them according to their routine, and spend time playing so they stay happy, active, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾
“I highly recommend Ms. Jaclyn! She bonded quickly with Lula and upon my return home, Lula's usual anxiety wasn’t present. Ms. Jaclyn was kind enough to bring in a package I forgot was coming in. Ms. Jaclyn is now on my speed dial when I have to go on my trips! James S.”
About: I believe dogs are the best “people,” with dog owners coming in a close second. (And yes, I adore cats, too. But if I just had to pick one, I’d be team dog.) I’ve never not had a dog in my entire life. Growing up with beloved family dogs, I got my first official dog, Babar, a Weimaraner, during my senior year in college. Then came a pair of Italian greyhounds (Tag and Tootsie). Next, a standard poodle (Paulette), then a second standard poodle (Ginger), and finally, a toy poodle (Tanner). Currently, we are down to just Tanner and all ten pounds of his big dog personality. I remember being a young professional and wishing I could have help with my Italian Greyhounds when I had to work late. I’ve had friends who’ve had health issues and couldn’t take their dogs out for a walk. Acquaintances with a family crisis in need of support for their furry family members. Cat parents out of town seeking someone trustworthy to check in daily. I understand the need and the desire for someone you can trust. I live in Lucas, Texas, and have two teenage sons in high school. My husband works in business. My primary job is mom, and I also do creative writing. I’ve found getting out and loving on others’ pets to be the perfect accompaniment to my writing. Read: salve for writer’s block. I especially love getting outdoors (sitting at the computer and writing all day doesn’t work). I’m up for long walks, short walks, going out in the backyard to play, or simply checking in. I’m driven. I graduated with honors from Ole Miss and earned my MBA from Millsaps College. I’m dependable. I worked in corporate America for over ten years. Most importantly, I’m passionate about all animals, big and small, domesticated or wild, furry or not. Ok, maybe not snakes, but I know they serve a role in the grand scheme of things. I’d love to meet you and your four-legged friend to see if we are a match.
“Christa was completely wonderful!!! She communicated with our daughter who was staying at the house at night. She and Sundance did great. I will definitely be wanting to use her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lucas on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,177 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lucas. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lucas stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lucas. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
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.
