“We're grateful we found Stephen! He came to our hotel to pet sit, putting our dog immediately at ease. By the time we got back, they were best buds. Highly, 100% recommend.”
“J. Paul was such a pleasure to work with. He seemed to understand the special needs of an anxious dog and did everything we asked of him with pearl. We came home to a dog that didn’t seem to be bothered in the least that we had left. That’s exactly what we wanted. I would use him again and recommend him to anyone who is concerned about dogs with anxiousness or other needs that come with a rescue pet.”
“My Zoey loved having Karen stay with her while I was on a trip. I got lots of pictures and texts about how she was doing. Zoey is a special little rescue pup and I felt so comfortable knowing she had Karen to take care of her while I was away. Great communication and will definitely be in touch in the future when I need a sitter.”
“Makayla was a wonderful sitter for our two labs. Her kindness, punctuality and dedication was evident. She kept us up-to-date with video clips and pictures of her stay at our house. I would highly recommend her and hope to request her services in the future.”
About: Ever since I was young, I’ve had an overwhelming love for dogs. Because my mom was allergic, I couldn't have one in my house growing up, so around age 10 I started going to my neighbor's house daily just to spend time with their Golden Retriever, Ginger. I played with her, trained her, and we even entered a local dog show together. That early experience gave me a lifelong passion for giving dogs the active, fulfilling lives they deserve. For years, neighbors, friends, and coworkers have trusted me to care for, walk, and sit their dogs. I have hands-on experience with all kinds of routines, from multi-day home sitting to daily drop-ins, and I genuinely enjoy every moment of it. When your dog is with me, they will receive undivided attention, patience, and love just like they're my own family. What I feel sets me apart: • Built for high-energy & athletic dogs: I live a very active outdoor lifestyle and love spending time in nature. If your dog needs long walks, runs, hikes, or never wants any downtime, I’m the walker for you. • Attentive and reliable: I will follow your home, feeding, and leash instructions very thoroughly, and I always prioritize safety and situational awareness on walks. • Detailed updates: You’ll receive prompt communication and great photo updates all the time so you know your dog is having a blast. One more thing to add, I don’t care if your dog isn’t trained, or if they're the craziest dog in the world, or if they jump, or if they weigh 140 pounds of pure muscle, I can guarantee we will get along and have a good time. As a college student with in-person classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have wide-open, dedicated availability throughout Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and full weekends. On my class days and during the couple of weekday evenings when I teach tennis clinics, I plan my dog walks and drop-in visits around those specific blocks. This setup gives me substantial, predictable chunks of free time throughout the week for morning outings, midday check-ins, and extended weekend care. I’m punctual, organized with my calendar, and happy to coordinate a routine that aligns with your dog’s needs. Safety for your pet is obviously every pet owner’s number one priority, which makes it mine as well when your pet is in my care. All instructions for anything whether it be for your household or for your pet that are given to me will always be followed through with. Also, when your dog is on a walk with me, I can guarantee their safety. I have walked so many dogs in my life, and I know that there is never a moment during a walk where safety isn’t the number one priority, with fun being second of course. Lastly, if I am caring for your pet in at your place of residence, I will always be respectful and safe.
“Jocelyn is an absolute gem! Our fur babies were so loved and well cared for, and we came home to a spotless house. She was incredibly communicative and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Lorraine was great! I got text updates and phone calls. It was comforting knowing they were in good hands! I look forward to using her again for my July vacation:) Thanks”

“Eric D. is wonderful! Took care of our dog Joy and she had a great time! We had a long day away from the house for a wedding, and we needed someone to play with our active playful dog. A friend recommended Rover, and Eric had great reviews. We contacted him and he came out to meet Joy beforehand and go over things. He was right on time and Joy liked him immediately! The day of he was right on time too, and took great care of Joy all day. They went for walks, played frisbee, and he even helped with the cats.

Makayla is an awesome pet sitter! She cared for our dog, Luna, in our home. Communication was excellent with regular texts, pictures and pup-dates. Luna was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I would recommend Meghan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!
Mary and Chandler did a fantastic job taking care of our two greater Swiss Mountain dogs while we were gone for the weekend. They sent updated pictures and notes, honored the requests we had made, and also left the house in great condition which we really appreciated. We arrived home to two well fed and happy dogs, and a clean house. We would absolutely utilize their services again. Thanks so much Mary and Chandler!
We are so thankful to have found Mackenzie! She took care of our dog in our home while we were away and kept us updated throughout the trip with how he was doing to ease our minds while away! We feel so fortunate to have found her and will definitely be using her again!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lyndell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lyndell on Rover is $63.83 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 4,885 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lyndell. 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 Lyndell 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 Lyndell 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 Lyndell 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.
