“Kelsey watched my dog in my home for 8 days when I was out of the country, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She updated me multiple times a day with pictures, was extremely communicative, and left my house in great condition. I couldn't recommend Kelsey enough, and will be using her for all of my dog sitting needs going forward.”
“Tyler was fabulous with my dogs. Three retrievers, two golden and a very anxious mixed lab. The lab took to him immediately. Tyler updated regularly with pics and texts. Last minute one of the holders developed a terrible hot spot requiring special care. Tyler was accepting of the challenge and nursed the poor guy back to health. I would recommend Tyler highly! He left our home as if he was never there and our dogs happy! I will use Tyler again in the future!!!”
“This was our first time using Anna as a sitter. She came one week ahead to meet our pup briefly to ensure it was a good fit. She sat for about 5 hours. Took him to the park for a big play sesh - so much that he napped the rest of the evening. Will use again.”
“Lexie was such an amazing sitter! She took care of my pup for a week while I was out of the country. She was very communicative and took great care of my Remi. She sent me daily updates (often times 2x) and made sure that my high-energy guy was active (and tired) and well cared for. She also helped me out at the last minute, picking up a package for me. I felt so at ease having Lexie as our dog sitter and will absolutely use her again in the future.”
“Tyler stayed with our two high-needs Boston terriers for a week. Not only did he take incredible care of the pups, he left our place completely immaculate, even taking care of laundry and sweeping up. He is so above and beyond, and we felt very comfortable during our trip thanks to his frequent updates and thorough care. Thanks so, so much for being so great to our wild pups!”
About: I have always loved animals since I was born. When I was in high school I started pet sitting all over lancaster and when I was a senior I went to school to become a veterinary assistant which lead to tech school. A decade later I am still in the veterinary field doing what I love… saving lives! I have experience from small animal to large and even experience with exotics/pocket pets. I promise to always provide the best care possible for your fur baby! I will always treat them as my own. 🥰 I currently work for a small veterinary clinic where my hours are 9-5 Monday-Thursday and 9-12 on Fridays. I do not work weekends! I am more than willing to stop in, spend the night, or do whatever best fits your animals needs! I have had training throughout the years while being in school, attending continuing education in other states, and working with animals every single day since I was 17 years old. I am CPR certified for both cats & dogs. I promise to provide the best care possible!
“Melissa was great, she showed up right on time the day we left and helped keep our 2 large dogs calm as we left. We got photo updates nearly every day and it felt like our house and pups were in good hands while we were away. When we returned the house was in great shape, the dogs were happy and our plants were thriving! This was a fantastic experience, we would definitely book Melissa again.”
“Rachel did a great job caring for my dog Mia while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and communication was quick and easy. Our house was also returned to us exactly as we left it. Definitely recommend!”
“Omg! I cannot ask for a better pet sitter. Maria is a sweetheart and made us feel very secure watching Lucy while we were away. She is very communicative! We really loved that she kept updating us with pictures. I highly recommend booking her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I have experience taking care of animals professionally in a boarding setting and within a vet clinic (as a technician, not a doctor). I have experience handling and caring for more ‘opinionated’ patients/animals. From dogs with stranger danger or ‘spicy’ cats. I have experience caring for diabetic and higher needs animals and particularly am rewarded by caring for older fur babies, cat and dog. I have a deep care for all animals and always want to provide the best care possible. I work from home and am able to bring my work wherever I am, so I can stay with animals who cannot be left alone for long periods of time. I take care to build rapport with animals and respect their communication, going slow and reading body language in order to understand their boundaries and provide the best care possible. I look forward to providing quality and compassionate care to your furry family members. I work from home and can bring my work wherever I am. This allows me to care for animals that need more frequent care/can’t be left alone for too long. I am available for drop ins on the weekends (Friday-Monday) and some weekdays depending on my schedule. I can follow most instructions or requests within reason to keep your pet on their typical routine. I can follow medication routines, feeding routines and care needs such as crating, enrichment and training reinforcement (manners, already taught commands etc). I can clean litter boxes once per day.
About: I have been taking care of my family's dogs since I was young. It turns out we're mostly cat people now and I love playtime with cats too! I'm currently working full time and going to school but I would love to visit your dogs, cats or pets on the weekends and holidays. I know having your people leave home for awhile can be a stressful experience for pets. I think having time to play and run around is also an underestimated and important part of pet sitting beyond the basic and feeding and bathroom breaks.
About: I am easy for dogs to get accusomed to, even dogs with difficulty towards others. I have spent a various amounts of time walking/sitting for friends over the years and also maintaining other animals (cats, reptiles, ferrets). I enjoy engaging with dogs and other animals to spend my time, and working with them to better their skills. I am generally free during the days and in the mornings. Evenings most nights as well. I can pop in and out to assist as needed for any type of to level of care. My schedule is all over but that's what helps me maintain an open yet closed schedule! I will maintain making sure your animals water is full, food is served per your food schedule. I don't mind giving medications. I will happily brush it do other general maintenance as needed!
“Heather and Spencer did a great job! We received constant updates! They both are so friendly and took such great care of our pups. We would hire them again for sure!”
“Linette was awesome! Our cat, Naamah, often hides when company comes. Linette was able to win over her friendship, and they hung out a lot! She took great care of the house. She communicated with us while away and sent pics/videos. She is very professional. I highly recommend her! Steve”
“Patience was great with both of our pups. She recently stayed with our dogs for a trip out of town and I did not have any worries about their care with her. She is very responsive and answered us in a timely fashion. One of our dogs takes a little time to adjust to changes she was great with him as well our other dog who barely noticed we were gone. Cannot recommend her enough. Look forward to booking her more for our future trips.”
“Great dog sitter and person. Asked questions on our expectations from her and kept is well informed. Will definitely book with her when and recommend her to others. Thank you for making our trip away a blessed one. ?”
About: I have taken care of families dogs and my own dogs since I was 8-9. I have stayed at someone’s home to watch their animals(cats, ferret, parrot, dogs) and I have also done drop in visits. I currently have a dog and cat of my own as well! I work full time as a nanny, but I’d love to provide weekend or evening care for your pets and will provide them all the care they need while you are away! I can come by to your home and crate your dog after walks if need be and follow all instructions to make your animal feel safe and secure within their home.
“Kaela is an exceptional pet sitter. She is incredibly kind, communicative, and dependable. She always treats my dogs with excellent care and genuine attention, and I can tell they’re comfortable and happy with her. Kaela is also very respectful of my home, leaving everything just as she found it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Madsion was great! We have two cats and a senior dog. Our dog, because he is older and takes meds, leaves us a little anxious when we leave him. From the time Madison came over to meet our pets we could tell she was a great fit. She bonded with the dog right away. We went away for our wedding and she made this trip so much better knowing our animals were in good hands. She gave us constant updates and sent pics everyday. She was so good with all the animals and would recommend her over and over again. I will definitely use her again. If I could give her 10 stars I would.
Kelsey was amazing!! From our meet & greet with her and Willow. She is so kind, paid attention to details and made us feel comfortable having her take care of her while we were celebrating our son getting married!! I would definitely book with her again and would recommend her for you in the future 💕
I would give Philip a 10 out of 5 if I could! He did a fantastic job with our 2 pups. Communication was great and he even went above and beyond to make a purchase for one of our pups because it would make her more comfortable, even bought them treats and left them here. You can tell Philip genuinely cares for animals, his nature with is very natural - not forced. He is also a very friendly person and super easy to talk to. It was sooo nice to come home to our pups and they were calm and very happy!! I would recommend him over and over! Lisa R
Chris is absolutely the best! I never have to worry when he is taking care of my dog and my home. He is reliable, trustworthy, caring, and truly goes above and beyond. My dog loves him, and I have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands. I couldn’t recommend him more highly!
Emily is a fantastic sitter. She took great care of our dog while we were away. And he can be a hand full. The house was left perfectly and she brought our mail in for us when I forgot to put it on hold. Very much appreciate her professionalism. ! Beni loves her too which is a huge plus ! He hopes she will come back again soon to stay with him. ! Thanks again Emily!
Katie was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was warm, personable, communicative, and incredibly kind. She took the time to set up a meet and greet, came prepared, and was so patient in letting Shep warm up to her at his own pace. It was immediately clear how much she genuinely loves and understands dogs. She kept me updated throughout her stay, was flexible, thoughtful, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I trusted her completely, even though we had just met, which says a lot. I couldn’t recommend Katie more highly and will absolutely be booking with her again!
Zania is a treasure. For anyone looking for a responsible, respectful and caring dogwalker for the Lancaster County area, Zania is wonderful. I have a young active terrier and a very Senior, deaf and partialy blind terrier. She was very careful with both. Followed my care instructions and asked appropriate questions to determine how to best meet their needs. She fed them, gave potty breaks and gave my Senior dog her medications with no issues. The dogs loved her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,271 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lyndon. 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 Lyndon 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 Lyndon 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lyndon 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
