“Blake did a great job taking care of my cats while I traveled. My cat Rocky especially liked spending time with her! She went above and beyond by also filling the bird feeder and watering flowers! It's so nice not having to worry while I'm gone!”

“Dillon did a few drop in visits for my pups and was absolutely amazing! My German shepherd has never met him before the visits and he was a pro at getting her to warm up to him! He also played with them and adjusted to their different play styles. We will be contacting Dillon again for future visits! I highly recommend him!!”

“Savannah never fails to ease my anxiety. Tons of updates, photos, and let me know that my sprinkler system was malfunctioning while I was gone and kept that on track so my grass didn’t die. Truly, I don’t know what I would have done without her!!”


“Remi was so happy to see Apple! Apple and her daughter were playing with her when i came home and her tail was nonstop wagging. Apple came over and was very flexible with time which I appreciated beyond words. She was amazing! Will definitely book again in the future!”

“We had Keandra watch our two Great Danes and cat for a long weekend in our home. They're pretty low maintenance, but she did a great job and we appreciated the updates and photos at each visit. We'd book her again.”

About: I don't know what it is just all dogs take a liking to me right away. I believe every dog is special and unique, incredible. As of now my schedule is very open I only have one client currently my kids in school husband at work I need new dog friends I treat my clients home with respect only going to where I've been instructed everything I need for the dogs is located always lock up
“Kristen has been an absolute God send! My dogs love her and my cats even the skiddish cat loves on her!! I am far away and love getting the pics of all my animals enjoying her company!! She always updates me on everything she's doing and has been so easy to work with!! I'm glad my animals have her to love on them!!”

About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals. I’ve been trusted to walk, feed, and take care of family and friends fur babies while they’re away I am a full time employee in Johnstown but have time for pet care before and after work. Times will vary based on my schedule but I will always be available morning and night I have 6 cats and 1 dog that are the highlights of my days. I walk my dog twice a day and make sure our babies have fresh water, lots of toys, and all the space to run they could ever need. With a cat tower in every room they never tire

“Jennifer is absolutely amazing! She works with my crazy last minute requests and Wolfie loves her. I trust her with the care of my doggo completely she is amazing!!”

About: I’ve helped train two puppies to potty train and even use the bell, so I understand the patience and consistency it takes to teach good habits. I really take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routines, and needs — whether it’s a playful puppy full of energy or a senior dog who just needs a calm, comforting walk. I’m reliable, caring, and always make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy while they’re with me. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I have a lot of free time and truly enjoy spending it with animals. I’m able to give each pet my full attention — whether that means daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I'm available whenever someone needs a reliable sitter or walker. My dogs are like my children — they’re fully potty trained and have free range around the house. I take them out every so often because I want them to explore and enjoy the world as much as possible. They always have access to fresh water, and our home is truly their home. If you have specific routines or special ways you care for your dogs, please let me know so I can follow the same routine and make them feel comfortable and loved.
About: I own a cane corso/Great Dane and have done extensive training and care myself with her and have owned dogs my entire life. I love dogs I’m currently in cosmetology school but other than that I’m pretty available. Most mornings I am busy with school but I willing to work with you I have plenty of room for all your animals! And can do what is needed based on your request, they will be so happy and loved with me
About: I’ve grown up with six dogs total, five cats, three hamsters and two fish , each animal has my heart. I have always loved meeting my family, friends and neighbors cats, fishes, dogs, and more. I am currently in full time school majoring in education. I dedicate my weekends and nights, occasionally other weekday hours to taking care of your sweet animals. I make sure to have access to pets food and water, and ensure the pets routine stays the same. I make sure every dog feels loved, by going on walks or out in back yards to play. I love to play red dot, mouse or box games with cats. I make sure smaller animals are safe and where they are allowed to be regarding safety.

About: I have owned pure-bred, rescues, fosters, disabled, and re-homed pets throughout my life (mostly large 40+lbs., but small as well.) I've provided training from puppy age into late-life comfort care. I also have a masters degree in behavior analysis and reinforcement training. I work from home as an artist, so I'm around most the day as well as my dad. There is a doggy door from outside into the garage (but not into the house). I trained Kizzy to push a button that says "outside" so I let her out as needed throughout the day and when one goes out, the rest tend to follow so plenty of potty breaks! Kizzy has a very flexible eating schedule and I am happy to accommodate feeding as needed for your pup. (Let me know about food aggression!) I tend to walk pups late in the evening when there's less distraction, less noise, and cooler, but we DO stop and smell the roses... and grass... and benches...and fire hydrants....etc. no rush here! Also, everyone gets a LED glow collar (if tolerated) because safety first! Safety is a priority! Behavior Analysis is my field of expertise, which is primarily the use of reinforcement procedures to change behavior (mostly for individuals with autism!) This means I do NOT implement punishment procedures (other than perhaps a firm "no") but rather "ignore" the undesired behavior. LED glow collars for nighttime walking. Can feed separately or together depending on your pup's needs! Will supervise feeding, especially initially! Also happy to accommodate medication administration if needed. I have a very social 6 year old boxer mix named Kizzy who is much less active than she used to be, but is tolerant, great with sharing and is great about correcting other dogs when they are being too "in her space". I have a 4ft fenced in yard, which backs up to a walking path with other dogs, bycliclists, runners, golf carts, etc. (so let me know about reactivity issues!) I prefer to have your babies here in my home as it allows me to work from home. I have multiple dog beds, a basket of toys, an extra large crate if needed, I keep water filled, yummy organic treats. I have lots of walking paths in my neighborhood, a nearby dog park, and Kizzy loves swimming in the river so water-loving dogs are welcome! I have cared for higher-needs pets including geriatric, blind, deaf, and even one which was paralyzed and used a wheelchair! I am very comfortable with administering meds, the "cone of shame", assisting with mobility up/down stairs, etc. However, I am also available to stop by your home for potty breaks/medications/water refill/etc. and am available to pick the pups up myself depending on time of day! I am very flexible, just let me know what ya need!
About: I have always loved taking care of animals since I was young- from dogs, cats, chickens, and fish I have always been surrounded by animals. I have a particular interest in animal behavior and training- I always want to ensure animals feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed when they are in my care. Before moving to Boston, I attended Colorado State University seeking my degree in veterinary medicine- the classes I attended focused on animal behavior, animal environment, and specifically handling large animals such as cattle. During my time there, I acquired my IACUC training for animal handling (can provide if needed, however it technically expired last year) and successfully performed medication administration, vaccine/medication injections, bovine castration, proper animal handling, and more. Unfortunately due to a family emergency I could not finish my degree, however I am looking to complete my animal training certification, as I still love working with animals! While I, myself, do not currently have any pets, my roommate has a cat that I help care for- his name is Boog and he's incredibly cute! I currently work part time Saturday-Monday mornings- after 3pm I am completely free! If your pets can be left alone for about 8-9 hours (travel time depending), I can house sit on these days while working. The rest of the week, I spend time on my hobbies and doing research on animal behavior, meaning I will have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and whatever else your pet may desire. I like to set up a trial run before any official appointment just to make sure your animal is comfortable with me and vice versa! This gives a great time where your animal has a familiar person (you!) to reassure them that I (a stranger) am no threat, as well as going over care instructions, any medical concerns, and your typical routine for your pet(s).
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience caring for puppies and kittens who need extra patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require a gentler approach, medication reminders, and additional comfort. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet's routine to help reduce stress. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends when needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether it's going for walks, playing, feeding, or simply giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. I make it a priority to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's something I truly enjoy, and I'm committed to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions from their owner. In a client's home, I respect their space while keeping pets on their normal routine to reduce stress. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and affection, and I'm happy to send regular photo and video updates so owners know their pets are doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where they receive lots of love, supervision, playtime, and rest. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and always strive to make them feel right at home.
“Coral was an amazing pet sitter for our anxious kitty. It can be difficult to find a sitter that our cat is comfortable with. During the meet and greet, our cat was already rubbing up against her legs and wanting to smell her! During drop-in visits, she made sure to take lots of pictures and send detailed notes, which I really appreciated. Coral also cleaned up the house a bit (took trash out, started dishwasher, etc.) before she left, which was such a thoughtful touch. We (and our kitty) would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Coral for your great work!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,223 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lucerne. 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 Lucerne. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
