“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”
“Zachary was great with Phoebe during my 10 day trip and left the house immaculate. Did not send daily pics (which I don't require) but very communicative and responsive. Would definitely hire him again.”
“Alex & his wife took care of my 3 pups over a long weekend. I had them stay at my home as 2 are foster dogs & more comfortable here now. Everything was great & the pups were well taken care of.”
About: I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I started helping take care of my family dog at age seven, and over the years my experience has grown to include a wide variety of pets, from chickens and tortoises to rabbits. Each has taught me something different about patience, attentiveness, and individualized care. I currently have two cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with the day-to-day needs, personalities, and quirks that come with feline care. What sets me apart is the combination of this lifelong, hands-on experience and my medical training. As a medical student, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and comfort with administering medications when needed. I’m very attentive to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy, and I understand how important it is to follow care instructions closely. I also have experience caring for senior pets. I had a cat who lived to 20+, so I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and consistency older animals need. Whether your pet is young and energetic or requires a slower, more thoughtful approach, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times! I’m currently in my fourth year of medical school and have completed my core clinical rotations, which gives me a lot of flexibility and free time. I can easily accommodate regular visits, walks, or extended care throughout the week, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet’s needs are consistently met. I understand how important companionship and routine are for pets, and I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment whether in my home or yours. I use Rover myself to ensure my cats stay happy and cared for when I’m away, so I know what it’s like to provide peace of mind for both pets and their owners. I follow all instructions closely, supervise playtime, and make sure each pet feels secure and loved.
“Asia did a great job caring for my fur babies! She did great with applying ointment and giving extra care to my dog while she was in a cone (a last-minute change after our meet and greet 🥴). She kept me updated with daily photos. Thanks, Asia!”
“Literally the best ever!!! I could not recommend someone more than her! She took such great care of our neurotic dog and made Bailey feel at home and so comfortable, it was like we were never even gone!”
“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”
“Ashley was very responsive and easy to book with! She showed up on time and sent various updates and our dogs were happy and healthy when we arrived home! Would recommend and definitely book again.”
About: Hi! I’m Erin, and I’m currently accepting new pet sitting clients in the St. Louis area. I work at Saint Louis University and also work part-time as a caregiver, so being dependable, responsible, and communicative is a huge part of my everyday life. I’m a lifelong dog owner and currently have a Lab mix of my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, medication administration (oral medications), playtime, and overnight pet sitting. I provide regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Unfortunately, I’m allergic to cats, so I’m only accepting dog and other non-cat household pet clients at this time. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will care for your dog like family, I’d love to connect. Feel free to message me with your location, dates, and what services you’re looking for. I currently have a full time role at SLU that offers remote days and flexible hours. I am able to adjust my schedule to manage both. I am very comfortable working with larger energetic dogs and those who may be a bit more timid. My family dog is a bull mastiff boxer mix who can run around for hours on end and my dog is an anxious couch potato through and through.
About: I've been caring for animals since about 5 years old, my grandfather use to have a little piece of property over in Central Point, Oregon. Full of horses, chickens, barn cats and even a few stray dogs we had taken in. Caring for animals has easily become second nature for me, when any of my family travels I am always the first to offer my pet sitting services, I love caring for animals! Even now, I am fostering my younger sisters' German Shepherd while she is overseas. I know sometimes we need help with our animals, and I know how important is to have a truly trustworthy person to help care for those very loved furrends too & that is why I want to offer my help to anyone in the community Pet care is something I do every day in my routine, I personally have dogs, cats, hens and ducks plus a few fish in my home. I have always been used to having a big furr family growing up, so the animal care was just instilled from the beginning. My animal at home currently have a fence. As far as if it is at the clients home, then I'm just aware of the roads around, if any are busy,just making sure my leash was secure before leaving the house. ect. It is what I schedule my week around, I like to make sure the clients have the schedule they need for the animal, and then I work around that. Since relocating to Missouri, I am not able to do pet sitting in my home currently, so I will be only doing check ins at the client's home for now.
“Ayana was great with the girls! She took care of our home and dogs while we were gone. Our electric door locked stopped working as soon as she arrived but she made it work and made sure to stay with the girls until we got close to home. She also was open to my last minute booking! She took great care of the house and the girls as well! Hope to have her watch them again soon. Definitely book with Ayana! She’s amazing!”
“My dog & cat are so much more chill upon my return when Sarah comes to stay with them. I get happy critters pictures during the stay & no stress from interrupting their routines, so I can enjoy my trip fully.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Pine Lawn is $50

Emma did a fantastic job!!!!! My doggo was so relaxed with her he just went about his life as if I were there. The updates were fantastic and I know I made a great choice with Emma!!! I don't travel much but when I do I am definitely 💯 % asking her again!!!! Thank you so much.
Karah was great! This was a last-minute trip, and I was concerned about leaving the pup behind with a new person, but she made me feel comfortable immediately. She came the same day for a meet and greet, and I knew her and Oslo would get along swimmingly. She kept me up-to-date with his walks and how he was doing, and I believe her being at my home really helped him take to her quickly. I will definitely use Karah again, and if you are looking for a sitter, I'd recommend her to anyone.
Laura is simply the best. She stayed with my weird little dog for a week and did a spectacular job. It's the second time she sat for me in my expectations were fulfilled. She left my house tidier than before. She always goes above and beyond. You won't be disappointed if you go with Laura. I highly recommend.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pine Lawn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pine Lawn on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,694 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pine Lawn. 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 Pine Lawn 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 Pine Lawn 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 Pine Lawn 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.
