“Zach is amazing! He has a heart for animals and took incredible care of our old Jack Russell. He followed the requested schedule to the letter and sent wonderful pictures along the way! He was very respectful of our space and went above and beyond by washing his sheets and towels for us before leaving! We will definitely be rebooking with Zach!”
“Blaize is always fantastic when she watches the boys! She is very communicative and makes sure to share photos every day which I truly appreciate. Even when one of the boys had an allergy, she made sure to get him his medication to get him right back to normal! Thank you for always taking such good care of the boys and our home!”
“Jessica was great! My boys loved her from the moment they meet her. She’s really good at keeping you updated with your pet’s via messages and pictures. I’m very happy with how accommodating she is, and her professionalism. Will definitely be using your services again. Thank you!”
“Caitlin was wonderful with our fur baby!! She kept us updated through out our entire trip with pictures and videos. She was on time and very professional. She will be our go to girl for all future trips. I would highly recommend Caitlin for any family or friends in the area!”
“Such a great experience! My puppy can be a lot and my other dog is a very anxious boy she was so great with both of them. I received pics my whole time away and constant updates. Highly recommend!”
“Michael has been easily the best sitter we’ve found on Rover. He’s attentive, followed all our instructions and sent an abundance of pictures for the entire stay. 11/10, have already booked again.”
“Hey everyone, I just had to share my incredible experience with Reanna, who came to my house to watch my furry buddy. Let me tell you, it was a game-changer! Reanna is an absolute superstar, giving Julie all the love and attention she needs. Plus, having the sitter come to my house was so convenient - no more stressing about drop-offs or pick-ups! I had peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. If you're looking for a dog sitter who goes above and beyond, Reanna is the one to call!”
“Elise stayed @ my home with my Callie girl for 5 days & did an outstanding job!! She checked in sending pictures several times throughout the days & let me know what they were doing. I trusted her completely in my home. Very nice young lady & will recommend her to anyone to dog sit their fur babies”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Thomas completely exceeded every expectation I had. As someone who is very protective of my dog, I was nervous about trusting a new person, but Thomas made the entire experience incredibly easy, reassuring, and honestly, better than I could have imagined. Before even accepting the booking, he came by to meet Jax and instantly put both of us at ease. He listened carefully to every instruction, took my concerns seriously, and asked thoughtful, detailed questions to make sure he could care for Jax exactly the way I do. It was so obvious how much he genuinely cares about animals and wants to get it right. Throughout the stay, Thomas sent amazing updates and photos that showed just how happy, exercised, and loved Jax was the entire time. He went above and beyond to keep my pup engaged and comfortable. Knowing Jax was in such great hands allowed me to actually relax — something I honestly didn’t think was possible when leaving my dog with someone new. He stayed in my home and was incredibly respectful of my space. Everything was exactly as I left it, and he followed all of Jax’s routines perfectly. It felt like Jax got a little vacation of his own. Thomas gave me a level of peace of mind I didn’t think I’d ever have with a sitter. My initial apprehension about leaving my dog with someone new is completely gone and that is entirely because of him. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Thomas. He is responsible, kind, attentive, communicative, and genuinely exceptional at what he does. If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your dog like family, look no further. Thomas is your guy, and I will absolutely be using him any chance I get.”

“Julie was so amazing to our 2 sweet pups and our super shy kitty! She walked them several times a day and made sure to send us photos and videos of them showing us they were having a blast together. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would love to have her watch ours again in the future. Thanks Julie!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West and East Lealman
Marissa took excellent care of Angus, our 5 yr old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, while we were out for the afternoon. She’s good with him and Angus warmed right up to her. He seemed relaxed and content when we got home. Angus has special medical needs and Marissa is well qualified to manage any issues while we’re out. I would highly recommend her. Thanks again, Marissa!
Iva did a fantastic job house sitting for our cat. We left for 6 days and didn’t want the cat to be left alone so we found someone we could trust. She provided regular updates, photos, and let us know if she had any questions about the house or the cat. We arrived home this morning and both the cat and house are perfect. :) Thank you, Iva!
Jennifer did a great job house and cat sitting. I leave directions for sitters and she followed all directions perfectly. It takes a while for my cat to warm up to new people, and this stay was only several days, but my cat did start to come out before the stay ended, and seemed comfortable with Jennifer. Something that’s important for those of us with scaredy-cats. I’d definitely hire her again
Janys was absolutely amazing! My cat had surgery the day before and I had an important meeting scheduled that I couldn't miss. Because Mr. Whiskerson had stitches and was wearing an e-collar, I was worried about leaving him alone and potentially getting the collar off or disturbing his incision. I specifically reached out to Janys because of her veterinary technician experience, and it was one of the best decisions I could have made. She took excellent care of him, made sure he kept his e-collar on, and administered all of his medications exactly as instructed and on schedule. To make things even more stressful, my meetings ended up running longer than expected. I contacted Janys about extending the visit, and she was incredibly accommodating and flexible. Knowing that Mr. Whiskerson was in such capable hands took a huge weight off my shoulders and allowed me to focus on my responsibilities without constantly worrying. If you're looking for someone knowledgeable, reliable, compassionate, and experienced with pets recovering from medical procedures, I cannot recommend Janys highly enough. I will absolutely be using her again in the future!
Jaxxson had a great stay! 😊 Raven was kind, communicative, and took the time to learn about his specific needs and routine. I appreciated how attentive and thoughtful she was, and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands while I was away. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to other pet parents.
Caitlin was wonderful with our fur baby!! She kept us updated through out our entire trip with pictures and videos. She was on time and very professional. She will be our go to girl for all future trips. I would highly recommend Caitlin for any family or friends in the area!
Katie was so amazing with my dogs! She stayed at my house and sent lots of pics and updates and they seemed to have loved her bc they were cuddling her in every picture. She also left my house completely spotless which was a huge plus! I would highly recommend her and will def be using her again!!

FAQs for House Sitting - West and East Lealman
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in West and East Lealman on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,044 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West and East Lealman. 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 West and East Lealman 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 West and East Lealman 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 West and East Lealman 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.
