About: I offer all kinds of pet care, walking, drop ins, box scooping, yard scooping, play time, cuddle time, food/watering, general medication administration, wound care, brushing and much more. I have experiance with domestic animals, pocket pets (hamsters, ect.), lizards, bugs, rescued wildlife and ect. If it can be a pet I more then likely have taken care of them. I love all animals and would love to care for yours anyway I can. I currently have a Dog, 3 Cats and take care of several other animals for family and friends, so im kind of an Auntie to many animals. I live in a large 2 story home, with a large fenced in yard and live in a quiet subdivision in Flushing near the Golf Course. I can keep pets seperate from our other household pets or they are all up to date on vaccinations and are other animal friendly so if you feel your pet would like to co-mingle then that is possible too. You let me know your pets needs and I can usually accommodate a way to adjust areas to suit there needs in my home. No young children or loud environment, just quiet, relaxing space for your pet to enjoy while away from home.

I now have two dogs of my own and treat every animal with love, patience, and care. I work 9–5 on weekdays and offer cleaning and pet sitting after 5 p.m. and on weekends. Message me to discuss your needs and availability! I take care to follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m respectful of your home and will ensure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

About: Hi there, I'm Rachel! My partner, Stefan, and I are traveling full time across the US in our Mercedes Sprinter and we are looking for way to keep our adventure going while simultaneously seeking out new fur-friends along the way! Since we are so mobile, we are extremely flexible in our schedule and can give your pup (or cat) family members our undivided attention. We also have a 10 month old rescue pup named Knoppers if you're looking for socialization, too! I've had at least one dog or cat in my household all my life! I was a pet care specialist at Petsmart for 4 years and a dog bather for 1. This means I have a wide range of experience with all sorts of animals. Experience in care of exotic pets that include (not limited to): chinchillas, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, ball pythons, parakeets, and conures! At the end of the day, our goal is to give the best care to all the animals we are entrusted to look after. Our plan is to travel the whole US while looking for pit stops to help people along the way! Our schedule is wide open. We are open to what works best for you and your loved ones. Our number one goal is to care for your pets just as you would! Ideally, if you're looking for a multi-day or overnight pet sitter, we could park our van in the driveway so we'd be just a few steps away from your fur babies. If preferred, I could stay in the home with the pets - it's all about communication! We have our 10 month old puppy who is always looking for new friends. He would be more than happy to keep your pets entertained. If your dog(s) would prefer not to have company, we are more than happy to oblige. As previously stated, I worked at Petsmart for 5 years and have even more experience with meeting new animals and noticing the signs of stress or what to do should there be a scuffle between two dogs.

“Tori is a world-class pet - and house - sitter! She takes great care of my baby girl Winwin, always keeps me up to date on her goofus activities and gives her plenty of pets (and according to Winwin, a... sufficient amount of Churus... but Winwin loves Churus). She's always respectful of my property and if I ask her to pick up the mail or bring a small package inside she takes care of everything! Love having this lady in the Fenton area!”

About: I have experience in different avenues of pet care. I have dog/house-sat periodically since I was 18. I also have experience working at a pet grooming salon, so I feel very comfortable with pets of any size. I am also confident with providing medical care, such as pills, shots, etc! I currently work part-time, and have a lot of free time in my schedule to be able to stay with/take care of pets! I am also a full time student, but currently am enrolled fully online. I currently am only able to stay at client’s homes, because I have 5 crazy pets of my own at my house. I make an effort to build a connection with not only the pets but also the clients, and follow whatever guidelines they set for me to stay with their furry friends!

About: We will treat your dog(s) as our own. My friends tell me I have a special way of patting dogs and they (the dogs) seem to love it. They will get good belly rubs, behind-the-ear scratches and whatever love they need from both my husband and me. Our large fenced yard will entice your dog(s) to run and play as well as relax. We are comfortable looking after more than one dog at a time as we have a dog of our own. Just an FYI, Fiona, our 14.5 year old passed away in December 2023. We adopted Meeka in February 2024 who loves playing with other dogs and people. We also just adopted Simba in mid-April 2024. He is slowly getting socialized and loves playing with Meeka. They definitely keep each other company! Your dogs will also feel more comfortable in our house knowing that they are welcome and have familiar dog faces and smells here. I am also comfortable taking care of your dog(s) in your house to ensure your fur-children continue to stay in the comforts of their own homes. My husband and I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) soon. My husband and I do this together. We both work full-time at the office but I work 2 days from home. During the in-office days, we will let the dogs out when we wake up and after one of us get back home. The other two days and on weekends, they get let out every 2-3 hours or as and when they need to go. My husband helps me when he’s home and we go for daily walks in the evenings and weekends. We love patting and playing with them as that’s our routine with our own dogs so rest assured, we’ll make sure your dog gets loved too. Meet and greets are always preferred because we want to make sure you’re comfortable with our family and vice versa. If your dog(s) will be in our home, my husband will be helping out. Therefore, we want to make sure our pups play well with each other too. If you need a house sitter while you’re gone because it’s easier and better for your pets to be in the comforts of their own home, it’ll either be my husband or I. In this case, we want to make sure you’re comfortable with both of us. Boarding/Daycare: We have a fenced backyard and require all boarders to be crate-trained and come with a crate, especially for feeding time and if things get wild. For older dogs like when we had Fiona, she struggled to go up and down the deck stairs so I let her out in the front yard which isn’t fenced. However, I went with her and she was great at not taking off with me and my husband. Meeka and Simba are always leashed when they get let out in the front. If you’re worried about your dog being in the front yard, we will always use a leash. Otherwise, the backyard is more than sufficient if they’re okay with stairs. Home Sitting: We will do our best to stick with your routine with your dog. I do work full-time, 2 days from home and my husband goes to the office all 5 days. If your dog loves walks/car rides, we'd be happy to have them meet ours and they can walk together. If there are other animals in your home that's need to be card for, please let us know. I am an animal lover and will learn quickly to care for animals I’ve not taken care of before.

About: My entire life I’ve had the blessing to care for pets. From my Rottweiler Roxie, to my sweet kitty Nala, I’ve learned what to look for to provide the best care to my animals. I’ve also had extensive training in caring for livestock. During my undergrad I spent three years as a pig farmer and I loved every minute of it. I’m hoping to work most days after 3pm but no later than 10pm. I have some flexibility on most weekends. Would prefer mornings during the weekend but I am flexible. I have a fenced in yard that my cat likes to explore in. I also have a laundry room that can be used to separate my cat from any of your animals if needed.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - New Lothrop

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in New Lothrop is $33 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $47 per visit. 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 504 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across New Lothrop. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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

  • 92% 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.

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.
