“Absolutely amazing!! She took such great care of my husky, Atlas and cat, Mayhem! Loved the updates and you could tell she loves animals! Will definitely request again in the future!”

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years, and honestly, spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy. I've always had a soft spot for them and believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and cared for. I treat every animal as if they were my own, whether that means going on walks, playing, cuddling, keeping up with their routines, or just giving them some extra attention. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I want both you and your pets to feel comfortable, happy, and at ease while you're away! I'm available Wednesdays until 6 PM, Fridays after 3 PM, Saturdays all day, and Sundays until 4 PM. I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! I provide pet care in my clients' homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and stick to their normal routines. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I want your pets to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I'm happy to care for your pets in theirs!
“So grateful I found Joe! My new cat had never been left alone and I refused to board him. I was nervous and wasn’t sure how’d he handle another big change in schedule so soon. Joe made me far more comfortable, he was always on time, my cat even went to the front door around the time Joe would come so he was obviously comfortable as well. I will absolutely be asking him back when needed.”

“Sharon is THE BEST! She is very sweet and reliable. She communicates well and it extremely considerate. I have used Sharon to take care of my large dog and also my injured cat and she has gone above and beyond.”
“Adrienne was great with my 2 dogs! They both took to her immediately and her communication was great about how the visit went. She also sent lots of pictures and I can see that my dogs were very comfortable with her. She also has experience with dogs with a more special needs because my older gal has cancer, and has had a major surgery and she was very attentive to all of that. I will be using her as often as I can!”
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.
“I can’t recommend Brittany enough. She is incredibly warm, friendly, dependable, and communicative. One of my dogs is usually pretty hesitant around new people, but she has really taken to Brittany, and our new puppy absolutely loves her too! While I’m away at work, Brittany always sends the sweetest pictures, updates, and detailed report cards from her visits. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing exactly how my pets are doing and that they’re being well cared for. My husband and I are definitely helicopter pet parents, so trusting someone else with our pets and in our home was something I was honestly nervous about. Brittany has completely put those worries at ease. I feel totally comfortable trusting her in our home and, most importantly, with our pets. She’s also incredibly patient and helpful with our dogs, who are definitely not always the easiest! Between a new puppy, potty accidents, and everything else that comes with caring for dogs, she has been so accommodating and never makes anything feel like an inconvenience. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, communicative, and genuinely great with animals, I highly recommend Brittany. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for basically my whole life, they’ve always been a big part of my world. Because of that, caring for animals feels very natural to me. I’ve helped take care of pets for friends, family, neighbors, and pretty much anyone who needed an extra hand. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just giving them love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone, and I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and genuinely caring. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and keeping a structured schedule. I’m used to organizing my day around responsibilities, so things like walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are easy for me to stay consistent with. I genuinely like being around animals, so caring for them never feels like a task it’s something I actually enjoy. My routine and flexibility allow me to give pets the attention, patience, and care they need throughout the day. When I care for pets, I focus on making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I pay close attention to their routines, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I try to adjust my approach to what makes them feel most at ease. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is always to make sure both the pets and their owners feel happy and stress-free.
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.
“Marissa did a great job with our cats! I was nervous about using an app mainly for dog sitting for cat sitting but I found a rare cat person, hallelujah! Really appreciate her flexibility and giving the cats good attention when she was here!”

About: With experience handling both senior and energetic pups, I offer tailored care for all ages. Trustworthy, attentive, and loving—your pets are in good paws! My household went from seasoned with the calm, wise presence of my 10-year-old Rottweiler mix to lively with the addition of a playful Great Pyrenees puppy, just last year! With my part-time job schedule, I'm fully available to cater to your pets' needs, offering house-sitting, walking, and doggy-sitting services throughout the week, and most weekends! In your home, I will meticulously follow all instructions provided, ensuring your pets receive optimal care, while also showering them with cuddles and playful fun!

I recently graduated from highschool so I am free all of the time now! I’m hoping for my animal/house sitting services to become a full time job for me!! I am constantly engaging with dogs whether that’s playing with them, petting them, going on walks, I am always engaging with them! I feed them on time and give lots of belly rubs!!
“Blake was very good and patient with my cat (who was wary at first, but opened up after a few visits). She was also very responsive to messages outside of her booked to visit visiting hours, and I enjoyed the photos and videos she would send to show that my cat was playing and eating.”

About: I have been around many different animals in my lifetime taking care of them or even rescuing them, and making sure they are loved and safe. I work a part-time job so my schedule is flexible, but I also do babysitting and teach private dance classes for kids on the side. I can easily follow directions, if written down, making sure that your pet is well taken care of the way you would take care of your own pet if you were there.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lucas is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 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.
As of November 2026, there are 6,848 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
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.
