“Michaela was wonderful with our two dogs. They were happy and she kept us informed twice daily. One of our pups is just a year old and she was great at handling the sibling dynamics! I highly recommend!”
“Raven was an absolute pleasure; we would recommend her to watch your pets 100%! She was very communicative, helpful, and was able to help us with a last minute request. Our pup seemed to love her and be very comfortable with her.”
“Nina did an excellent job taking care of our puppy. We got him last week and were so nervous to leave him alone. She gave us updates, sent us pics, got back to us within minutes, followed all instructions we asked of her, and ensured his safety. My puppy is sooo shy with other people, and he went right to her. 10/10, will book for the future!!!:)”
About: I've raised 5 of my own dogs, cared for family members' dogs, and neighbors' dogs since I was 15. I love them and treat them like my own children. Puppies and seniors are not an issue. I can care for multiple dogs at a time. All breeds. As of now, I'm pretty flexible. My daughter moved out, so it's just my husband and me. We have an 8 year old Beagle and a 4 year old dachshund. I'm available weekdays, weekends, and holidays for up to 2 weeks at a time to give your dogs plenty of attention and affection. First of all, I ask the owner if there's any special instructions for their pet. My availability allows me to be there to attend to and play with pets in the comfort of their own home. I give them lots of love, just like they deserve! They are family!
“Second time we’ve used Jenni and Matt and they are just plain wonderful! Pups always well taken care of when we return and lots of pics/videos sent while we were gone. 100% would recommend booking them!”
“Jennifer is a keeper!! She took care of our fur babies as if they were her own! She kept us up to date and sent us pictures which was really comforting, being so far away. She treated our home with respect and care. We will definitely be calling on her again and again!! We love her!”
“Jophnie has been an excellent sitter for my babies. She kept in touch with me several times a day, which I really appreciated. Everything looked great when I got home. Everything was straightened up and clean. The dogs seemed happy when I got home. Very, very satisfied!! I will definitely use her again!!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! I came home to happy dogs and a cleaner house than I left. She went above and beyond and took such great care of my medically complex seniors!! Thank you!!!”
About: I am compassionate, caring and loving to all cats. My cat is my best friend because she listens better than humans. Cats are my go to for unjudgmental opinions I work full time, so I would be available to care for your furbabies after 4pm. I would also be available on the weekends to provide checkin n needed care. I have 1 cat , our apartment is cat friendly and quiet with 2 adult caretakers. I have had 3 cats previously. They can be such good companions. She eats 3 meals, has regular water changes and litter box changes and plays good solo .
About: I grew up taking care of our Newfoundland from a puppy. I was his primary caretaker for brushing him, walking him, and feeding him. When I moved out, I helped my parents take care of him until he passed a few years ago from arthritis in his hips. Since I moved out, I adopted two cats from the shelter. I recognize that our animals are part of our families. I follow directions and schedules well, and will strive to provide the best care for your furry family members. I work 7am-3:30pm Mondays through Fridays, so I’m primarily available in the evenings during weekdays. I’m fully available on weekends for pet care. I also have most/federal holidays off, so I will be able to work long weekends. I will use whatever supplies that you have and your pet prefers. I will not bring anything else without your permission. I will make sure to follow directions and schedules as closely as possible, and keep you informed of how your pet is doing.
“Cole was not only incredibly responsible and responsive, but he was also extremely friendly and personable. Our dog is a bit of a handful, but he handled every situation with grace and understanding. He also did additional cleaning after house sitting, which was very appreciated. Highly recommend Cole and we will be using him personally in the future for all of our pet sitting needs! 💕🐶”
“Terry did an amazing job house sitting and taking care of my two dogs and cat for an entire week. She was very professional and provided regular videos and updates. All the animals looked so happy. Our cat is shy with strangers and it only took a couple days for her to start warming up to Terry. I know they were well taken care of. The house was also very clean which is a nice relief when you get home after traveling. I would 100% recommend Terry and will be using her again.”
About: Hey, pet parents! I’m a proud Animal Science student at Penn State with years of experience caring for all animals great and small including dogs, cats, horses, cows, and more! With 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own, I totally get how much love our pets bring into our lives. Whether your pup needs a walk or your cat needs cuddles, I bring knowledge, reliability, and lots of tail wags. I treat every animal like family because that’s exactly what they are! As a dedicated pet owner and Animal Science student, pet care is already a major part of my daily routine! I care for my own 2 dogs and 3 cats every day, which includes feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, and managing any health or behavioral needs. I naturally structure my schedule around animal care, and it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. Whether it’s early morning feedings, mid-day walks, or evening cuddle sessions, caring for animals is second nature to me and I’m always happy to make space in my week to care for others’ pets with the same love and attention I give my own. When caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each animal’s personality and routine. In client homes, I always follow their care instructions closely whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, preferred walking routes, or favorite toys. I keep pets on their normal routines to reduce stress and make them feel comfortable while their owners are away. For cats, I make sure litter boxes are clean, water is fresh, and they have a mix of playtime and quiet time, depending on their temperament. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection along with structured potty breaks and walks. I’m also experienced with senior pets and those needing medication or extra TLC. Whether I’m staying overnight, dropping in for visits, or out for a walk, I care for every pet like they’re my own attentively, gently, and with lots of love and respect!
“Nina was great! She collected a lot of written information about our dog Daisy prior to our vacation and used it to guide her care. Nina's written log of play activities and treat rewards was remarkable and assured us Daisy was always in good hands. She updated us regularly while we were away with texts and photos. As part of our arrangement, we had requested a few extra tasks involving the watering of house plants (quite a few) and these were carried out to perfection. Not to mention, the house looked great when we returned! We will not hesitate to request our new friend and pat-sitter the next time we need to go away.”
“Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! My home was left cleaned and organized and my pups were happy as can be. She was prompt to respond and even though i was away for only a weekend, she made sure to send pictures and videos to me. Would highly recommend!”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with Border Collies and have also adopted several dogs over the years, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy working breeds to laid-back companions. I've also volunteered at several shelters, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. I work from home (as does my wife) so your pet will be getting consistent, attentive care. To be honest, our dog passed away last fall and we are missing the joy of being dog owners and having dogs around, but we need something a little more flexible for the time being. You are getting two sitters for the price of one and we will care for your dog as if they were our own :) As a former dog parent who has used Rover, my goal is to provide exactly what I was looking for each time I booked a walker/sitter: clear communication, limited hassle, and all of the assurances that you can rest easy and not worry...your doggo is in good hands! I work from home and call my own hours (as does my wife) so as long as we know your dog's routine we will make sure to incorporate it into our own. We have a fenced-in yard and a walking path near our home so walks are never a problem (we love walks). My wife and I both work from home so one of us will always be giving your dog attention/supervision. We have previously owned dogs who were flight risks so we have been conditioned to keep an eye out, keep doors closed, etc. We have a big fenced-in yard and have a little indoor gate/fence that we use in the house if need be to secure a hallway, etc.
“Jordan was amazing with Matteo! He is temperamental but her calm and genuine demeanor helped break through where he was comfortable and had fun with her. We will def book her again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Red Lion is $60

Nancy did a phenomenal job taking care of our Frankie while we were away on a week vacation. Lots of updates daily along with pictures and videos!!! Frankie has special needs and she went above and beyond taking care of our girl and our home. I wish there were 10 stars because Nancy deserves them. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Nina is great!!! She was so personable to us and loving to our pets during the meet and greet, it really put me at ease knowing she would be coming to take care of them. Our fairly recent rescue, Lucy, is a standard poodle with some anxiety and Nina put her right at ease. Our cat was very pleased with his new friend as well! Nina will definitely be asked to come back when we plan our next getaway!
Elizabeth was fantastic! She took wonderful care of my dog, communicated super well, and kept me updated the whole time. You can tell she truly loves animals. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
SUPER🤩 This was our first time using Michaela, and she was absolutely wonderful! She watched our 5 year old lab at our home for a week and did a fabulous job with her. Cali is a very active and energetic lab. She followed her schedule and met Cali’s needs. Michaela made sure that her needs were met by getting her outside a few times during the day to play fetch with her frisbee and tennis ball, along with taking her on her walks. And not only that, Cali has a bit of anxiety at times and Michaela made sure she was loved and got the attention she needed while we were away. Michaela did check-ins and sent pictures daily( morning and evening). Michaela is very professional, caring and super friendly plus, she actually had more questions for us about Cali then we did for her, which was super impressive. She took notes about Cali starting with what her daily routine is like, her eating schedule, activities she likes, her behaviors etc. You name it, she asked it. My husband and I just knew after meeting with her, that she would be perfect taking care of Cali because you could just tell that she genuinely cares about your pet and their needs. We also felt super comfortable allowing her care for Cali and be in our home. We were so happy to find a kind, friendly, professional and trustworthy person to take care of Cali. Also, I am a bit of a clean freak and I can tell you, that my house was left the same way I left it….looked like she was never there, spotless! We were also having bad storms while we were away, so I texted Michaela about a few outside things on our deck that needed to be taken care of and she made sure it was all taken care of as well. A breaker tripped while she stayed with Cali, so she texted us the issue and we were able to call her and help get it resolved. Like I said before very professional, caring and kind. Her communication and dedication of care not only for our dog but our home was truly amazing. We will definitely be using Michaela’s services again and highly recommend.
Selena was wonderful! She watched our house and our dog for 17 days and everything went perfectly! She responds quickly and sends pictures a made sure our boy was well taken care of while we were abroad. When we came home everything was clean and washed too! Highly recommend.

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 Red Lion 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 Red Lion 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 Red Lion 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 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.
