About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals, from chickens to lizards. I know all animals deserve the best and that they all should be loved and cared for, as I have two of my own. I know how to take care of animals, whether they are babies or older. I prioritize responsibility, genuine love and care and communication. My busiest days are Monday and Fridays, as I work from 8 am to 6:30 pm. However, I only work part time (max being 5 hours) for the rest of the week. I always will check in on your babies and make sure I take care of their needs before and after my job. I live in an apartment that has an outdoor area and I live within close proximity to amazing parks. I also have toys and other enjoyable things for your babies to enjoy.

About: I have cared for dozens of dogs, cats and pets over the last 25 years. I bring a calming, grounded energy and an intelligent, thoughtful approach when caring for animals. I am self-employed as an insurance broker and can work from anywhere with cell service/internet. This gives me a ton of flexibility with scheduling and availability. I work closely with pet owners to follow specific care instructions and take their personal preferences very seriously. I understand that pets are part of the family and have their own unique routines, needs and care requirements.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them independently since I was 14 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their dogs while they were away. I recently lost my own dog, which made me realize how much I truly love being around them. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs different levels of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, and just simply having a buddy. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will provide probably too many photos and updates. My schedule is fairly flexible, I work part time as a private caregiver for an elderly couple. I have lots of free time and I do my best to accommodate each dog’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your dog gets the attention and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding routines, feeding, medications, exercise, and house rules.

Dylan was the perfect cat sitter! Communicative, professional, kind, punctual, and great attention to detail. Our kitties were well taken care of, fed, played with, and very tidy litter box area. We will definitely work with Dylan again!

About: I grew up on a farm where we had all kinds of animals including many dogs and cats that I adored. Specifically, we had a couple of German Shepherd dogs that required daily activity. I also went to school and graduated with a degree in Animal Science which focuses on Animal Husbandry. I have experience with basic obedience training along with administering medications to all types of animals. I have a full time job that allows me to work remotely a couple days during the week so I can do drop ins during the day if needed. My weekends are generally available to do overnights. I would be happy to accomodate any schedule needs you might have. I will be able to pick up on and monitor your pets behavior to ensure their safety. I am able to create a structured but friendly environment for those pets that need it.

About: I've been doing Rover as a side gig every summer for a few years. I work as a teacher and love filling my summers walking dogs. I have a senior aged cat who is the laziest cuddle bug in the whole world. I also have a rescue German Sherpherd mix who I adore but has needed a lot of work over the years. All this to say, I have a strong understanding of the spectrum of needs your pet may have and come with the experience to take care of your animal as if they are my own. I have summers off, so my availability is very open until I return to school in August. During the school year, I would mainly be available for pet sitting or walks on weekends. I follow owners’ instructions closely and make sure pets stay on their normal routine. I treat every pet like they are my own by giving them lots of attention, care, patience, and a safe environment while their owners are away.

About: Ever since I was young, I have had an affinity for animals. This has made me the go-to creature care person for family, friends, and neighbors. I understand every pet has their own personality, and how to meet them where they’re at: whether it’s a senior cat who just wants slow scritches on the couch, or an excited puppy who loves to play but still needs their training reinforced to build good habits. My passion for all pets led me to engage with pets of all shapes and sizes. Learning whatever I could from the people and care providers around me. I previously worked as a receptionist at a veterinary practice during my post-college program, so I’m pretty knowledgeable and attentive, but also aware of the limits of my skills. So, if you’re looking for calm, compassionate care for your critter, creature, or cryptid, let me know! I am currently employed seasonally, but that means I’m quite flexible for your creature care needs. I am available most weekdays and weekends, and I try to keep my schedule up to date with my availability. On average, I’m free most days and times aside from Thursday 6pm-9pm, Friday 9pm-11pm, Saturday 11am-2pm and Sunday 5-8pm. I understand the importance of respect and communication when it comes to care and being in someone else’s home with their pets. Accidents do happen, especially when working with animals- I will both quickly address and inform you of such if any occur. I am not afraid to seek clarification if I am uncertain about something. I also love to send little updates or summaries about my visits or walks. That way, you’re always in the loop, if that’s something you’re interested in.

About: Hi! My name is Marion. I have always loved dogs, and have one lovely pup of my own, Summit. She is the tan dog in the photos. She is 7 years old, and very dog friendly. She loves to play, but knows boundaries and is happy to cuddle on the couch as well. I have a very large, high-fenced yard that is great for the dogs, and I also walk my dogs 2x daily and take them to the dog park or open space 1-2x per week. I am a runner, so I could gladly run with your dog if you would like. Dogs of all sizes are welcome in my home! I grew up with Great Danes and am very comfortable around big dogs, and my house is very open so there is a lot of room. I look forward to meeting you and your doggos! I am experience with senior and medical pets as well and am comfortable caring for your medically needing fur babies. Behavioral issues or nervous dogs don’t scare me, I have fostered 50+ dogs over the years and am happy to be accommodating. I work from home 90% of the time and am only gone from the home for 2-4 hours at a time to visit my clients. I have a furbo in my home to check in on dogs when I am not at home, and can make my schedule work for someone needing 24/7 observation as long as I have notice. I have multiple spaces in my home if our dogs need to be separated as well.

If you are like me and dread leaving your cat(s) at all, and feel like your requests are complicated and overly-attached - well, don't! Just book Christyn. We have two Ragdolls who we shower with attention all day working at home and don't leave too often. Christyn stepped in and helped out 2x/day with play, feeding, picking up after them and some brushing and observing for behavior. I felt great after the first "report card." We are getting a puppy soon too and look forward to her loving on the new addition next time we need to get away. Thanks for keeping them safe, loved, stimulated and with a reliable routine!

About: I've fostered and adopted many animals, including those with medical conditions and treatments. I'm passionate about senior dog care and love ❤️, but I love all animals. From snuggles to special diets, medications, exercise, PT, walks, mental stimulation, and playtime, I'm up for it all. I currently work full time but will be transitioning to a remote job from home. I feed my dog in the morning before work and have a 2 hour morning routine, then break for lunch for feeding, bathroom and snuggles, and then dinner and bathroom after work at 5pm and play in evening time. When working from home, I take frequent breaks to walk and stimulate my buddies. I have a lovely middle-aged shih tzu named "Princess Peach" who is a great companion and dog and cat host. My house is a 2 bedroom ranch style home with basement in a terrific walkable neighborhood. I have a backyard with a chain link fence along a residential street. I have a reliable car and can lift and transport large and small animals with care. I'm attentive and observant and observe all rules of clients' homes. I'm very respectful of others' spaces and clean up immediately after any mess.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have had five dogs growing up. I currently have two Great Pyrenees mixes, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities! Along with caring for my own pets, I’ve also pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, including overnight stays, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to care for cats! I’ve cat sat before and am comfortable with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them attention while respecting each cat’s unique personality. I’m home from law school for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, chasing toys, or just relaxing with a familiar routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Schedule I’m home from law school for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule. I work three days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a one-hour lunch break, which allows me to check in on pets during the day if needed. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care, and I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. Safety, Trust & Environment I provide care in my clients’ homes so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care requests. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Regular photo updates are always included so you can have peace of mind!

Alicia really helped us out in a bind! Our kennel had a case of kennel cough and we found out the day we were supposed to leave for vacation. We booked her a few hours before we left! She came and watched our dog for 30-minute visits and texted us photos so we knew he was taken care of. He seemed worn out and happy when we got home. Thank you for everything!

Halina made an outstanding first impression at the meet & greet - she was prompt, polite, professional, personable and got along great with our dog. She listened carefully when I provided care instructions and asked all the right questions. She sent an update with photos during her drop-in visit, which took place exactly when she said it would. I would not hesitate to use her services again! Highly recommended.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies for the past ten years! I have experiencing taking care of animals while house sitting for long stretches of time. I love getting outside, walking, and running with dogs! I am reliable, gentle, and love getting to share new connections with animals. It would be so great to take care of your animal babies! I'm currently in grad school but have significant room for walking, dropping in, and overnight stays. My schedule is mostly busy during the days on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have time in the morning, evening, and afternoons. I stick to what each owner/parent prefers. As for my dog, he is really good about recall so we are able to let him run around the backyard without fencing. When we walk on trail he is mostly on leash unless we are in the backcountry. Again, I stick to what each owner prefers for their animal baby!

About: I truly love my client’s pets as if they were my mine! I’m unable to have pets of my own in my living situation so it’s fun for me to be able to have the spare time to take care of your furry family members while you are away at work or on vacation. I have provided pet sitting, drop in, and dog walking services for several different breeds and ages. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you are away by keeping consistent routines with feeding, walks, and play times. I absolutely love working with and taking care of animals. I’m here to answer/address any questions/concerns you may have and I look forward to meeting them and you soon!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Lyons on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,794 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lyons. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lyons stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Lyons 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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Lyons with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lyons. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
