“Bryant was excellent with my senior dog. He was incredibly experienced in terms of my dog’s specific needs, including diaper changes and being mindful of her dementia traits. He was also very communicative and offered multiple updates throughout the day.”
“We are very fortunate to have found Jenna and Tula. From our very first meeting, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs in her care and the pups all got along great. During the stay, Jenna was always in touch, sending daily updates and pictures. It was clear that they were having a great time enjoying her and Tula's company, and we could see how much attention and love they were receiving. We returned home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and we couldn’t have asked for more. Jenna truly goes above and beyond and we will definitely be reaching out the next time we need help with our fur babies.”
“Savannah is great- reliable, communicative, and friendly. While gone for the weekend she made sure to not only check on my two cats, but love on them and play with them too. My favorite part was the update pictures she would send, as well as feedback on how my cats were doing (eating, energy, litter activity, etc.) and having the veterinary background that Savannah does, my babies were in great hands. Consider Savannah for your booking and you won’t be disappointed!”
“Vanessa did a great job taking care of my dog Oscar for four days. She kept me updated with pictures and reports on how Oscar was doing while I was gone. Oscar was obviously happy with the time he spent with Vanessa as he was calm and well adjusted when I got back. Vanessa has a background in Vet care, so I think that is helpful too. I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Tressa is a one-of-a-kind dog sitter. As first-time Rover users, we were hesitant about leaving our dogs with a stranger. She kindly accommodated multiple meetings with our dogs before we left for vacation so our girls could become comfortable with her. She sent multiple photo and video updates daily which provided peace of mind during our entire vacation—always showing how happy our girls were. She left the house spotless and I would not hesitate to book her again!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life especially caring for my own pets. I have fostered many young puppies and am experienced in potty training, basic commands, and medical care. I worked as an intern in an animal clinic where I gained skills in critical thinking, proper handling of animals, and awareness of standards for the animal health care industry. I am currently home for the summer after completing my first year at Montana State University studying Animal Science! I am free on weekends and weekdays for whatever your pet may need! I am available to take care of your pet in the comfort of your home. I can ensure that your pets will always be safe with me! I've fostered four puppies at once and always made sure that they were being watched to ensure nothing bad happened. I crate trained my own dog when he was a puppy so I am not unfamiliar with the process! I am always happy to teach your pup a few new tricks as well!
“Gabby was amazing! She was very responsive, kept us updated, and took excellent care of our girl while we were away. We came home to a happy pup and would absolutely work with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Air offered to do a meet-and-greet before the booking date, was on time, was very respectful of my home, and was super sweet to my Zoey. Zoey has separation anxiety, and she was fast asleep and totally relaxed in Ari’s lap when I got home. I highly recommend Ari and will be booking her again!”
“Jeremy and Megan were wonderful to work with. This was our first time using someone other than friends and family and I don’t think we could have found better. They are kind and communicative. Our dog, Porkchop took to them right away, and we feel our boy got all the love he longs for while we were away. We will definitely use Jeremy and Megan again! Highly recommend.”
About: With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, I understand that every dog has unique needs. As an Australian Shepherd owner, I'm especially familiar with high-energy breeds, exercise requirements, behavioral sensitivities, and the importance of consistent routines. I also have firsthand experience caring for dogs with chronic health conditions, dietary restrictions, and sensitive digestive systems. Whether your dog needs an adventurous walk, extra patience, or individualized attention, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I treat every dog with the same care, compassion, and attention I give my own! I offer flexible scheduling for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting exclusively in your home. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's daily routine and am happy to coordinate visits around their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and individual care requirements. Weekday and weekend availability can be arranged based on your needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide care exclusively in clients' homes, allowing pets to remain in their familiar environment with minimal disruption to their routines. I'm attentive to behavioral cues, dietary restrictions, medical needs, and exercise preferences. I prioritize secure handling, clear communication, and regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is receiving reliable, individualized care while you're away.
About: I grew up with many pets including an iguana, a rabbit, a fish, a cat, and a dog. I always loved going outside with all our animals and caring for them. I have dog-sat for coworkers, friends, and family, who trusted me to care for their beloved furry friends. I currently do not have a dog of my own, and so I am excited to spend time with and care for others! I have a full-time job from 8-4 and have two days off that are not always weekends. I live an active lifestyle and love walking and hiking. I would love to be able to take dogs with me as a part of this program. I also would be able to check on pets early in the morning and then after work. I truly have a flexible schedule and am willing to be flexible for yours as well. I will follow all house rules as well as training rules. I listen to all owner needs and expectations, and follow through on them. I want your dog to feel safe and also have consistency.
“Sam was fantastic! She responded promptly, communicated clearly, provided updates, asked questions proactively, and most importantly took excellent care of our dog and chickens. She also left the house clean. We will be happy to have her back again!”
About: I’ve taken care of so many different species of animals ever since I was in elementary school. I spend as much time with the pets as I can and love to play and snuggle with them! Their wellbeing and happiness is my top priority I am currently a student at MSU, but my classes are spread out so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am always free on the weekends. I am sure to give my full attention to your pet and cater to their every need. I work with all personalities and temperaments and will always give the highest level of care to any animal I meet!
“Amberly did great at encouraging, comforting and caring for our overly sensitive and anxious pup. She sent pictures and had great communication! Will definitely book her again!”
About: I grew up on a farm in Upstate New York, taking care of my dogs, chickens, cats, and horses. I've loved animals for a long time, and feel that they provide a much needed therapeutic and calming part of my life. I'm in London doing my Masters at UCL, and would love to be able to spend some time with dogs! As far as house sitting, besides caring for my own animals my whole life, I have done dog sitting for 4 days for a good friend in Boston (where I went to Brandeis University). The dogs I took care of there were older, one had significant arthritis that made it difficult to move. I took them outside to go to the bathroom frequently, and even went swimming with them once! Moreover I have worked as a groom and stable hand at a horse show barn, caring for horses. I really love spending time with animals, especially dogs, because they are so loving and the experience is so rewarding! Since dogs help me to feel good, it's the least I can do to make them feel good and give back. When I was going to school in Boston I also worked as a dog walker for Wag! now and then, and found that I really enjoyed walking dogs as well. I would be a great house sitter, and walker partly because I enjoy spending time with dogs, but also because I know how important it is that animals are cared for and loved. I'm currently working remote and part time, so I have a very flexible schedule to fit in plenty of pet care time and fun! I am able to live and work in different locations for any amount of time. N/A - I can't currently offer pet care at my home, but I am happy to come to you and spend time with your pets wherever their home is.
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life spanning from kittens to elderly animals. I love and care for all animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently a full time student who lives off campus who also works three days a week. My weekends and nights are totally free with many gaps in my class schedule that would allow me to go check on your pets! I am very excited to offer whichever environment your pet enjoys most! I can be exuberant and play with your younger pups or offer a warm lap for an elderly/shy kitty to snooze on.
“Maya was totally wonderful with our 2 dogs and cat. She stayed at our house, left it in great shape, and loved on the animals. Our dogs have some unique needs - one needs to avoid greeting other dogs, and the other had some meds to take this particular trip - and Maya handled it all like a champ. We're lucky to have her as a reliable walker and housesitter!”

We had a wonderful experience with Noelle caring for Ginger and Barley while we were away! She was communicative, dependable, and especially attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Barley enjoyed his walks, while Ginger was perfectly content being her independent, cat-in-a-dog’s-body self. 😂 We received regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. She also took excellent care of our home, leaving everything just as clean as we left it. She even thoughtfully alerted us to some fallen tree limbs following a storm, so there were no surprises when we returned. Both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable in her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Kayla was wonderful! She made time to come and meet all of us before her stay and on our day of departure, she arrived early. She sent photos, a video and updates during our trip and was outside with our dog when we got back home. The house was just as we left it. Very timely communication, friendly, and our pup seemed to love her! We hope to have Kayla back soon!
Savannah is great- reliable, communicative, and friendly. While gone for the weekend she made sure to not only check on my two cats, but love on them and play with them too. My favorite part was the update pictures she would send, as well as feedback on how my cats were doing (eating, energy, litter activity, etc.) and having the veterinary background that Savannah does, my babies were in great hands. Consider Savannah for your booking and you won’t be disappointed!
John was an excellent sitter for our two dogs (a 4-month-old puppy and a 3-year-old) during a 4-night in-home stay. He met with us before our trip to go over their routines and make sure he understood everything. Throughout our time away, he sent frequent updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear he spent plenty of quality time with them, especially outdoors, and they were happy and well cared for when we got home. He also left our house spotless. We would absolutely recommend John to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter and would be happy to book with him again.
Emma was wonderful. She came ahead of time to meet our pets and was a wonderful house guest. She communicated well with photos and details, asking questions whenever needed. We felt such relief in knowing our fur babies and home were in good hands. We would highly recommend Emma!
George has watched our girls a couple times now, and I can honestly say that when they’re with her, I know I don’t have to worry about them AT ALL. She loves them like they’re her own, and they love spending time with her too. George is always my first go-to if we’re traveling anywhere.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lux is $46 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $57 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 414 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lux. 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 Lux 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 Lux 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 Lux 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lux. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
