“Donna is a fantastic pet and home sitter. Communicates very well, house was immaculate, very responsible person! Most importantly, I noticed our dog was very relaxed when we arrived home too. Maybe even a little disappointed we were home. 😊 Thank you Donna!”
“When our original pet sitter had to cancel within just a couple weeks of our long-planned vacation abroad, we popped onto Rover and began looking for someone to take care of our pets. With not just our dog, but also two bunnies, we needed someone who was experienced with rabbits too! We saw Joy’s posting and reached out. Even though she was leaving for her own trip, she squeezed in a last-minute visit to meet with us, which we greatly appreciated. We felt very comfortable leaving our little guy and girls in Joy’s care. Joy was wonderful in keeping us up-to-date with a nightly report and photos. It was so comforting knowing that our pets were in such good hands and we didn’t need to worry. She followed all the details on the notes we left and asked questions when she had a few. We came home to a well-kept house and happy pets! So glad we found such a caring, trustworthy, and reliable sitter. Thank you again!”
“Felicia took care of my dog and two cats for a long weekend. She is calm, patient, loving, and responsible and I highly recommend her services. My dog is shy and hesitant with new people but became very comfortable with Felicia who also kept me nice and up to date with how the animals were doing while I was away.”
“Kate was awesome with our dogs - lots of walks and photos so we could see how happy they were the whole time! She left our place cleaner than when we left. Highly recommended!”
“Jaylin was perfect! They came over before the stay to meet my dog and get a feel for my place, and they had an amazing time together while I was gone with lots of shared photos. Will definitely book Jaylin again and recommend to my friends!”
“Jorden is amazing! Sent pictures every day. Always got back to me quickly. Our dog was a little apprehensive having a new person in house and Jorden took it all in stride and calmed Bonnie and Jorden became Bonnie’s best friend. Jorden kept Bonnie calm during fireworks. Definitely recommend”
“Alana showed a calm demeanor that my 80 lb German shepherd puppy responded to very well. the meet and greet was a good idea. Alana and Freya enjoyed playing ball together and Freya was happy hanging out with her. I would definitely ask for Alana again.”
“Kayla did a great job under difficult circumstances. She was available on short notice, communicated well, took great care of two Huskies in a brutal heat wave. Kayla took great care of the house, and afforded me the peace of mind one needs to have when you leave your dogs with a sitter. Thank Kayla - much appreciated.”
“Mikayla was awesome with our girls and very professional with our house while we were out of town. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home, she was also very good about communication both before and during the trip. Will absolutely use her again.”
“Our Huskies bonded with Meaghon immediately! In fact, so much that Charlie, when he realized Meaghon was going home after the meet and great, jumped into her car and really did not want her to leave. Our two intuitive and discerning Huskies picked right up on Meaghon's calm leadership and experience. It was very clear that Charlie and Coco were in very good care. Peace of mind for us.”
“Liz is the best! She was available on short notice to housesit my two doggies. From the initial meet and greet I knew Liz was great. You can just tell if someone knows dogs and loves them. Throughout the trip, she was highly responsive and forward with any updates. Honestly, I’m so glad I found Liz. I will use her for all bookings going forward and I will highly recommend her to anybody. And know that I am not a bot or a pre-populated review. I am a real person who needed a dog sitter from a Memorial Day holiday weekend and Liz came through! I am grateful to her.”
“Matt did a great job taking care of our two doodles while we were away. He also took the time to come by for a meet and greet before our dates so he could see the routine and get to know their personalities before he stayed with them. We'll reach out to him again the next time we need someone!”
About: I gained hands-on experience caring for animals in a busy pet store, learning to read behavior and handle different temperaments. I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ensuring they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time for pup play. Meetings work best in the early afternoon for me. I’ve grown up with three dogs and a cat my entire life; always taking them on walks and playing around. I’ve also have helped others who have pups with special conditions at my job.
“Brittany was great. We were very nervous about leaving our baby but she made him and us very comfortable and put our worries at ease so we were able to enjoy our time away She sent us regular updates as well as pics of theie time together and she treated our home as if it were her own. Will definitely book with her again. Thank you Brittany!”
“Dakota did a wonderful job pet sitting for our two dogs (and chickens) for an overnight visit. She was prompt, communicative, kind and attentive throughout the stay. She was able to administer prescribed medication and took great care of our home. We are so appreciative of Dakota and will definitely book her for future pet sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
About: I love to work with animal, I’ve been in the veterinary profession for 10+ years. If your pet has special care instructions I will follow them perfectly. I have dogs, cats, and horses at home so I am very comfortable working with all sizes of animals. I also know how to care for birds, fish, guinea pigs, and hamsters and pigs. I know how much a pet can mean to someone so ill will care for yours as if they were my own I currently work 4 days a week. I am available Fridays to Sunday’s if you are looking for a weekend getaway or if you have a busy weekend and would like your dog to go for a walk I don’t offer in my home dog services but can offer cat or small animal boarding. You tell me home you’d like your pet cared for, weather it’s taking them for a walk or just letting them out in a fenced in area

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lunenburg on Rover is $108.33 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,956 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lunenburg. 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 Lunenburg 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 Lunenburg 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 Lunenburg 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.

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.
