“This was my first time using Rover for a sitter (versus a boarding-like facility), and I have to say that Susan was wonderful. With never using a sitter before, I was a little nervous about leaving my boys with just anyone, but Susan proved to be great with them! She sent me numerous updates with pictures of my pups and updates of my home (she stayed at my house) while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and will definitely be using her services again. Thanks so much, Susan, for everything!”
“Cindy did an awesome job caring for our elderly pup Faith! Sent photos and kept us updated so that we could relax knowing she was well taken care of. Would highly recommend!”
“Amanda was awesome. We have two dogs with opposite personalities and one who can be reactive. Amanda gave clear and consistent updates throughout the visit and sent great photos as well. She was able to bond with our reactive dog and keep an eye on our skiddish one. We have already rebooked her for the next trip.”
“This is our 2nd booking with Shelby. We had an emergency trip arise and she was able to help when we needed her. Our dogs love her and we know they are in good hands. She keeps our house spotless. Shelby is terrific and we will book with her over and over again!”
“Hannah was a fantastic sitter. She took great care of our pets, kept everything clean, and made the whole process easy with consistent updates. We came home to happy pets and a spotless space, which is exactly what you hope for. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Andrea was a great sitter to my 2 year old Husky/Shepherd. She was very communicative, sent photos, and didn’t mind my detailed instructions. She treated my dog like her own and he seemed to really enjoy time with her. I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“We LOVE Krishonna! She was available last minute and drove quite a distance just to watch our babies for a short overnight! We are soooo grateful!! Our babies were so happy! Krishonna sent us tons of pictures and even sent us videos! She even made the cutest bandannas for each of them!”
“Jackie was great with our cat and our home while we were away. She was able to recognize signs of stress and adjust the care she provided to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable (he is typically on the skittish/nervous side as it is, so we wanted to make sure he was in good hands while out of town). She also sent us photos and updates while we were away. She was very kind and respectful. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely care for animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. My attention to detail ensures that feeding schedules, walks, and playtime are always consistent. Pets respond well to my calm and caring nature, making it easy for them to trust me and quickly feel at ease. I’m currently working full time however I’m available most evenings and weekends. Please contact me for more specifics. Thank you for your interest and time. I care for pets by making sure they are healthy, happy, and loved. I feed them nutritious food, give them clean water, and ensure they have a cozy place to rest. I spend time playing with them every day and take them for walks or provide toys to keep them active. plenty of affection help them feel secure and cared for.
“This was my first time having Alexi watch my pups and home, and it definitely won't be the last! She did an awesome job, and judging by the photos of them snuggled up on her lap, you can tell they loved having her here! 🥰 She sent lots of updates, photos and videos. She also went above and beyond by working with my puppy, Bessie, on some training stuff. As far as my home, she was great with making sure all my mail and packages were brought in, trash bins went out on trash day, etc. It unfortunately rained here most of the time I was away, but she was great with managing the mud and wiping down the pups' paws when they came in from the backyard. Her attention to detail and top-notch communication were greatly appreciated, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their fur babies. ☺️”
“Ethel was absolutely incredible taking care of our pups (for the first time) while we were gone for 8 days for our wedding! She sent lots of pictures and videos, followed our instructions to a T! Will definitely be booking in the future.”
“Kaylan was fantastic house sitting and watching over my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She took great care of my energetic dogs and followed all my pet instructions. I appreciated the daily updates and photos. And my house was tidy on my return. Definitely will be using Kaylan again!”
“Adahy is wonderful! He sends frequent updates so you always know what’s going on with your dog. He even stayed late when he knew our flight was delayed so our dog wouldn’t be alone.”
About: I've been a dog lover all of my life. I also know how to deal with cats having owned two for over 15 years. I train all my animals to be sweet, obedient, independent, and spoiled! I'm a college educated man that can care for animals just about any time. I'm good at gaining trust with animals and building a relationship with them that makes care much easier. I prefer to go to clients home just because I have a little dog at home that's only 10lbs. Since most dogs outsize him, I'm not particularly comfortable bringing other dogs or cats into his domain. However, I am more than happy to give your pet the care they need at their own home so their lives are as undisturbed as possible. I will always view myself as a guest in their domain. I seek not only to serve you the owner as a customer, but the animal as well. I have a great love and respect for all our little family members!
“Naho was amazing! She went above and beyond for my pup even got her some toys. Although it was mother’s day we came to an agreement that worked for both of us and I’m glad I picked Naho as my sitter. Very detailed as many photos and check ins were sent throughout the visit and also was extremely punctual and kind. Definitely will be booking again and again 😁”

I wish they had more than 5 stars! Susan was so professional as she stayed to care for our 2 rat terriers. When we were gone she sent pictures of our pups. We felt so secure that she was caring for our pups the whole time. I would whole hardly recommend her for sitting for your pet. We certainly hire her again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Country Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Country Lake on Rover is $48.24 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 4,414 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Country Lake. 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 Country Lake 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 Country Lake 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 Country Lake 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.
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.
