“Trish was great and made herself available on short notice to meet and watch our puppy, Ophelia, who absolutely loved her. We really appreciated kindness, disposition, and flexibility. We'll now feel more comfortable going out knowing Ophelia is lovingly cared for.”

“Laurie was fantastic! We have never had anyone but family watch our dogs so we were hesitant. We have 3 dogs- 2 are extremely active. Laurie came to meet them a few days before and we went through their routine. She arrived promptly on her scheduled day and sent pictures per request. The dogs were very happy! I highly recommend Laurie!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Shelby! This was our first time using a dog sitter who wasn’t a family member, and we were a little nervous at first — but Shelby completely put our minds at ease. She took great care of our dog and sent multiple photos every day so we always knew how he was doing. It was clear she treated him with kindness and attention, and we came home to a happy pup and a clean home. We’re so grateful for her care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”

About: I have a deep understanding and love of animals. My parents often reflect on my childhood when I would regularly bring stray animals home that I either rescued from the road, were being chased by dogs, or who were left in the park next to our house. Frankly, that hasn't changed much! All of my pets have been rescues. Currently I partner with a couple neighbors to protect a local feral community in our area of Red Bank. I'm an amateur apiarist and have one hive in my yard. They've been with me for 3 years and have produced 70 pounds of honey since they arrived! I also have a unique love for reptiles with lizards being my favorite. There truly isn't an animal I couldn't love! I am a full-time animal caregiver with occasional involvement in my tiny catering business. I love animals and they're my priority in my work life. I also love to cook and share amazing food with people! As an early riser (around 5-6am) I enjoy starting my day early (so do my kitties!). My cats and past pups have always lived the most spoiled of lives. Each animal has their own personality and set of preferred and physical needs. It's my priority to make every animals life in my care the most enjoyable and comfortable possible.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Before I was 8, I had two amazing dogs and three precious and crazy cats. Since then (almost 20 years), I have cared for so many wonderful animals, from my own pets to professionally caring for dogs and cats through sitting and through dog walking. I love dogs of all size, and have experience caring for dogs as small as chihuahuas and dachshunds, to large labs, retrievers, doodles, mastiffs, and pitbulls. I've cared for puppies all the way to senior pups, including sick pets who I've administered medications to and prepared specialized diets for, including my own sweet pup who fought cancer several years ago. I have also fostered dogs with medical needs who were not able do well in shelter due to their conditions. I'm totally comfortable with multi pet homes. I love animals so much and treat each animal as if they're my own beloved pet. Nothing makes me happier than caring for animals and making them feel safe, happy, healthy, and loved. My work schedule changes week to week, but for the most part I make my own schedule and have flexibility to take as many breaks as possible in between appointments. I generally work more in the late afternoons and evenings, and my mornings especially are often completely free. Weekends are also free with enough notice! At this time I offer pet sitting services at the pet owners home, as well as additionally offering dog walking, and/or pet care drop ins throughout the day.

If you want someone to go above and beyond for your fur baby she is your sitter. She even gave special attention to her paws that have been itching. I will 10000000% ask her to watch Harley again!!”

I also have experience administering medication and have worked with elderly dogs who need very detailed attention❤️ I’m currently a college student working full time, but I am extremely flexible and can fit in time always throughout my days. I am available for almost all times of day excluding when I am working!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, our home always seemed like a mini farm—we had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, and rabbits. I’ve had dogs in my life since I was about three years old and have always loved caring for and spending time with animals. My background in environmental science and conservation has also given me extensive experience working responsibly around animals and spending time outdoors. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, a potty break, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care throughout the week. I’m especially available for daytime dog walks and drop-in visits and love having an excuse to get outside and spend time with animals! I’m also available for occasional overnight stays when my schedule allows. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and will communicate clearly with owners to make sure their pets receive the care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having grown up around many different kinds of animals, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and take time to make sure pets feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I stay attentive to my surroundings and keep pets safely leashed. In your home, I treat your space with respect and care. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety is my biggest concern when watching your dog. We introduce them to the new environment slowly in a controlled manner to allow them to be comfortable in their surroundings.

About: Hello! I provide pet sitting that’s cozy, fun, and stress-free for your furry family member. With plenty of attention, a relaxed atmosphere, and a large fenced yard for safe outdoor time, I aim to make every pet feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 6 years old—everything from dogs and cats to bunnies and even horses—so your pet’s unique needs are always in good hands. I share my home with a playful 9-year-old dog and two sweet senior cats who have lived with big dogs their whole lives. They help create a calm, friendly environment that works well for pets of all personalities, whether they’re energetic, easygoing, or somewhere in between. I’m also able to administer medications if needed, and I’m comfortable supporting pets with routines or health requirements. You’re always welcome to bring your pet’s favorite bed, blanket, toys, or other comfort items; familiar things from home help pets settle in quickly, and I want their stay to feel as natural and cozy as possible. If crating is necessary, please bring your own. ****MUST BE CAT FRIENDLY **** You can trust that your pet will be treated with patience, kindness, and lots of attention while they’re in my home. I am currently home full time. Aside from the random errand or two, your fur baby will have all the attention they could possibly hope for. I have a fenced in yard for safe play time. My neighbors either have dogs or foster - and love to give the babies attention through the fence. I am easily able to accommodate a crate into the household, and have a basement that walks out to the back yard for the ability to separate the animals if necessary.

About: Having someone you trust watch your pup is incredibly important. I provide a safe, structured environment for your pup to kick back, relax, play, get scratches and go on walks. My flat is clean, working a/c and my dog is an experienced medical service dog who provides a very calming environment for your pup! Daily : I work bartending at weekend events and various commitments around town, otherwise your dog will spend its time with Saint and I. Don't worry, I will take a lot of photos! Safety, trust & environment: I provide a safe, clean environment at my flat. I wash and disinfect all blankets, toys and hard surfaces between/during each pups stay. I keep first aid supplies on hand for immediate care: everything from hotspots, ear infections and abrasions. I require confirmation of vaccination and flea / tick preventative measures for each dog. I always discuss stay expectations and, when possible, walk through my flat with you, so you know with whom and where your BFF is staying. We do have three flights of stairs and your dog must be able to go up and down the steps.

About: I am comfortable staying overnight as well as ensuring your animals feel comfortable with me. I have been professionally walking my friend’s dog five days a week for two years now. I will make sure to stick to their normal routines, so they are less stressed. I hope I can give your animals lot of love and pets! Im usually available, but even at my job—I am still able to drop in around my lunch. So I’ll make sure to drop in as much as possible I am not able to keep any animals at my home due to me not renting or owning a home ( I’m a college student ).

I can’t say enough about Courtney. She came to love my little guy and the feeling was mutual. She initiated sending me photos and videos regularly and I could tell that he was really happy and comfortable with her. This changed my entire trip for the better and took a tremendous weight off my shoulders. Courtney left my home clean and was always quick to respond to any questions I had. She gets a six out of five stars, 110%, A+++!!

Sam stayed at my home for a week to care for my cat, Simon. They did an absolutely wonderful job! Very communicative with detailed messages and multiple photos and videos each day. Simon is a tough cat to win over (he’s afraid of everything), but within a day and a half Simon found a new best friend in Sam. This was such a huge relief to know he was happy and calm while I was away. Sam has a very chill/calm presence and I will absolutely use their services again!!

Alex was very attentive and caring with all three of our pups, ranging in age from 11 months to 12 years old. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing they were all getting the attention, care, and patience they each needed based on their different ages and personalities. We received daily updates along with several pictures, which made being away from them much easier and showed they were in great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable the entire time. We would absolutely highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lupton City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Lupton City is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $56 per night. 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 484 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lupton City. 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 Lupton City 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 Lupton City 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 Lupton City 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 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.
