“Thank you so much for taking great care of my babies! They appreciate the time and of course the walks which made us miss our family less! Pippa and Otis says Brad can come back anytime!”
“So happy that we were able to book with Shanae. She took great care of our pups and communicated fantastically. We'll definitely ask her to help again!”
“Desiree did a great job taking care of our Zoye for us for the days we wore gone ! She sand us pictures and updates on Zoye! Zoye looks happy and healthy! Desiree did a great job! We are so thankful!”
“Amanda did a great job. Followed directions and asked good question at the initial meet. Regular updates and pups looked happy and relaxed when I returned. I’ll definitely have her back.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for McKenna McKenna was absolutely amazing and a true lifesaver for us. We reached out to her last minute after an unexpected situation with another sitter, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the moment she arrived, we felt at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands. Both of our pups have medical needs, and McKenna handled their care with professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine kindness. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, followed their medication schedule perfectly, and made sure they were comfortable, safe, and loved. Her reliability, compassion, and willingness to help us on such short notice meant the world to us. We could not be more grateful and would highly recommend McKenna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Bethany was amazing watching our pup while my boyfriend and I were on a 3 day trip. She let me know if something was going on with our dog and always responded. She sent plenty of pictures to us and I could tell our dog loved her. I totally recommend Bethany.”
“Ashton was a great sitter and met our needs last minute even. She was very communicative and updated us a few times a day on our dogs with pictures and their various activities. Our dogs are very used to someone being home a large portion of the day and she stayed home with them the entire time which was very appreciated. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Jaime! She was absolutely amazing. Our dogs, Luna and Norman, adored her from the start, and it was clear they were well-loved and well-cared for while we were away. We came home to a spotless house — she even picked up the dog poop in the yard and washed the sheets she used, which went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be using Jaime again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter!”
“Alex took care of my dogs amazingly!! He was very attentive and followed instructions to the tee. I loved how he sent me daily updates, photos, and brought any concerns that he had with the pups to my attention. I highly recommend him and will definately use him in the future. He cared for my pups as if they were his own and that made me very happy! He truly loved on and played with my pups when I wasn't there to do so myself. Thank you Alex!!!!”
“Jenna watched our dog and two cats 3/5-8. We have previously used Jenna for house sitting as well as drop in visits. Jenna is very good with our pets. She is responsive and provided daily updates with pictures. Highly recommend Jenna for your pet sitting needs.”
“Isabella did a great job watching my two dogs and taking care of the house. She sent many pictures and videos of my dogs during her stay. My dogs enjoyed their time with her. I have already booked her for my next trip.”
“Ranekqwa did a great job with my pups when I was away. I was updated throughout the trip with pictures and messages, and my home was clean when I got back. I would definitely book with Ranekqwa again in the future!”
“Daniel was great with the fur babies. He was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. Both babies are long haired and he cleaned up all the leaves they brought in. He left the house cleaner then when he arrived.”
“Outstanding! Kept me informed with text and pictures. Also, as requested, took Stella to the dog park when weather permitted. Just as I was leaving for the airport, I remembered Stella was due for her heart worm/flea/tic tablets. To my embarrassment I found I had none. Brendan took charge, pick up the tablets, gave one to Stella and made sure she ate it all. You can be confident your pets will be well taken care of by Brendan.”
“Lisa did an outstanding job taking care of my 3 dogs in my home while I travelled, and she also went above and beyond to keep my home near and clean (very hard with 3 dogs). Highly recommend Lisa!!”
“Victory took amazing care of our two fur babies! Plenty of happy pictures and updates for ease of mind were sent. She also sent us a message to let us know Lenny got a boo boo (she’s about as graceful as a newborn giraffe so no surprise at all) on her paw and was so kind and helpful! Fully recommend Victory and for sure will use her services again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lucia
Autumn was amazing! My puppies and kitty cat had the best care while I was gone! I didn't think twice about their care because I knew how well taken care of they were. The house looked fantastic, and Autumn even brought in the mail, even though I had not specified that. The effort and the documentation were well above and beyond what I expected. Highly Highly recommend Autumn!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lucia on Rover is $26.75 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,093 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lucia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lucia walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lucia maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Lucia 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
