“This was our second time having DeAnna stay in our home overnight with our chickens, dog, and guinea pig! She is super responsive and takes such great care of our pets. Plus she leaves the house clean which is always nice coming back from vacation! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Blaise and Kendall were great with Betty. This was our first time using them after a recent move to a new part of town. It was comforting finding someone so close to home. They left our home in great shape. The bread and treats were a great gesture also. Will be using again.”
“Diana took amazing care of our dog Max! She was communicative and kept us updated, made sure he was happy and comfortable. We felt at ease knowing Max was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth was WONDERFUL. Elizabeth is kind & sweet and I know she gave loving care to Billy. Elizabeth sent us pictures everyday with updates as to how the day went. Which was always a good day with Billy. Elizabeth is responsible caring not only for our dog Billy but also our home. Highly recommend Elizabeth, oh, our house was cleaner when we came home than when we left.”
“Frankie was great! The dogs had fun, the house was in good shape, and Frankie did everything I asked, including sending frequent pictures. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Alexis took amazing care of my pup while I was out of town! She and her dog gave my pup all the love and play time that he could hope for, and he was so at ease when I came home he didn't even seem to notice I'd been gone. She was very communicative and sent messages and pictures frequently, I can recommend her enough!”
“We love Emma, and so do our dogs! I always feel comfortable leaving my home in her hands, and she treats it with great care. She sends daily photos and updates on the pups which I love!”
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.
“Shannon was Very Good Efficient and ontime .. House was perfect like we left it. WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE & WE WILL USE HER AGAIN . And the HOUSE smelled Amazing ! ;) You dah balm … hehe and the Fur babies. Love you to pieces. Once socks came out. So glad he became social with you.. It’s takes him a while to warm up to people .. So grateful we could find you on such short notice . be Belssed ! The Birge’s !”
“Anna provided phenomenal care for my dog while I was away! She stayed overnight at my place, and left it in great shape, provided regular photos and updates of my pup, administered medications, and my pup seemed very comfortable with her. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life but I’ve worked with dogs professionally for about a year now. I work at dog training and boarding facility in a few different roles. I’ve been a trainer, kennel technician, bather, as well as in the office scheduling boarding stays for our pups! I’d love to care for more dogs after work! I’m good at it and I enjoy it so much! I currently work 8am to 4pm. But I have plenty of time to spend with your pup after work! We can go for walks, go to the park or have a bath and get cleaned up! I can come to you home and care for your dog there or I can pick them up, take them out for some fun to get some energy out, and bring them back home safe and sound. I can crate them in my SUV for easy and safe transport.
“My partner and I are first-time dog owners, and Tavin was our first dog sitter booked through this app, so naturally we were a little nervous. However, Tavin was communicative, easygoing, and attentive to our pup’s needs right from the start. He stayed overnight with our dog, sent us pictures and updates, responded promptly, and left the house just as clean as he found it. We will definitely be booking Tavin again and highly recommend him to anyone considering his services!”
“Kori is amazing!! She sent us lots of updates of our pups and cats every day with tons of pictures. We could tell that they were well cared for and that she treated them like her own. We will definitely have her watch our pets in the future!”
“Katie did a great job with caring for my 2 male cats for a week. One of my cats had been recently diagnosed with a medical issue. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Katie was staying at my house & frequently checking up on him.”
“Marissa was fantastic, super attentive to our fur babies needs and attention seeking. Played outside with our youngest pup who enjoys playing, “keep away”. Will definitely book again over and over, highly recommend Marissa!”
“Damian did a great job taking care of my dog and house sitting while I was on an extended trip. My dog got along great with Damian. He took Finn for a walk at the park and in the neighborhood. While house sitting and providing dog care, Damian swept the floor, rain the dishwasher, and laundered the towels before leaving. He was trustworthy and respectful in my home. I recommend Damian highly.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lyles on Rover is $111 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Lyles 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 Lyles 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 Lyles 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.
