“Anna is exceptional. Anna is very easy to talk to and extremely professional in the way she handled anything that arose. She had such a long stay with our animals while we were away and was on top of communication, daily routines, etc. I cannot stress how much we appreciate and how good it feels to have someone we trust with our pets while we're away. She also did a great job with random tasks that needed to be taken care of around the house such as taking trash out, medicating fish tanks, etc. I'd recommend her over and over again to anybody who needs somebody to stay with their pets!”
“Ellie is so sweet and my dog, Barbara, loved her so much! Barbara can be a bit shy at first but Ellen got on the ground and played with her slowly and calmly until she was comfortable during our meet and greet. Her communication, attention to detail, and love for Barbara was such a relief while away. Ill call Ellen anytime I need help with Barbara!”
“Gabrielle was a great sitter. She stayed in my home for 6 days and was very professional. My dog was happy and healthy when I returned. My house was super clean when I returned. She was responsive and updated me everyday. My. Internet went out and she was happy to help with the technician and got everything squared away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a house and pet sitter!”
“Jacqueline was great with my dog! She’s the first dog sitter I’ve left him with, and even took him out to a park. He’s been worn out on the floor since I returned a few hours ago, lol.”
“Chelsea was absolutely wonderful. My dog loved her upon first visit and it was so nice having peace of mind knowing he was in great hands while I was away. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates and pictures which I appreciated. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Janelle was just awesome. Frequent and consistent updates and our doggos were so well cared for. One of our pups is super old and had an injury and Janelle was great with her. House was left so neat and tidy. Highly recommend!”
“Daniela took great care of our 3 pets and house while we were gone for the weekend. She kept in touch with daily updates and our dogs warmed up to her very easily and had a great time in her care. Definitely recommend contacting her if you are looking for a sitter!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my unique background, experience, and commitment to providing thoughtful, individualized care for every animal entrusted to me. I am a prior Military Police Veteran with experience working alongside K9s, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, communication, structure, and the importance of building trust and respect between a pet and their caregiver. While I have specialized experience with dogs, my love and care extend beyond just cats and dogs. I have experience caring for a variety of four legged family members and understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, routines, and ways of communicating. Whether it’s an energetic pup, a senior pet needing extra patience, or another furry companion needing attention and care, I approach each animal with the same compassion, responsibility, and respect. I have experience recognizing body language, understanding different temperaments, reinforcing positive behaviors, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable in new situations. I believe every pet deserves care that is tailored to who they are, whether they need exercise and enrichment, extra companionship, medication support, consistency with routines, or simply someone who will provide love and attention while their family is away. I am also a proud owner of three dogs of my own, which keeps me active and continuously learning about proper exercise, nutrition, routines, and the importance of consistency. Caring for my own pets has strengthened my attention to detail and my commitment to providing the same level of honesty, reliability, and love to every pet entrusted to me. My goal is to give each animal the care, patience, and companionship they deserve while giving owners peace of mind knowing their beloved family members are in capable, caring, and trustworthy hands. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine, so caring for your pet will fit in seamlessly. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of routines and timing needs, whether that’s early morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening care.I enjoy keeping dogs active with daily walks or runs of at least two miles, and I’m happy to tailor the activity level to each dog’s age, energy, and abilities. I also incorporate positive reinforcement training throughout the day, including before, during, and after mealtimes, to help reinforce good manners and build confidence.I have a reliable vehicle equipped with a dog seat cover, so I’m able to take pups on adventures to local dog parks, walking trails, or hiking spots (with owner approval). Most importantly, I’m committed to working with each pet owner’s schedule and preferences to provide consistent, dependable care that keeps both pets and their families happy. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining the routine they’re used to. I provide companionship for pets with separation anxiety, take dogs on walks to keep them happy and active, feed meals according to your instructions, and make sure they have plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to clean up any accidents or messes that may happen while you’re away. I take great pride in being clean, organized, and respectful of every home I enter. I’ll treat your home with the same care and attention I give my own, leaving it just as tidy as I found it. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, and I’ll always provide dependable, trustworthy care for both your pets and your home.
About: My parents would go out of town quite often for several days each time, and whenever they did, they would have me stay over at their house to take care of their two chihuahuas, Belle and Lilly, who were twelve and thirteen at the time. Belle had frequent seizures followed by difficulty breathing and incontinence and Lilly had an autoimmune disease. I had to give both of them several different kinds of medications and also provide basic care like filling their food and water bowls, giving them treats, letting them in the backyard and taking them for a walk. They would get sad and not eat as much with my parents being gone, so I would make sure to stay over there and keep them company for long stretches of the day. I help my dad walk his chihuahua, Lucy, at least once a week and I help trim her fingernails, as well as give her baths before drying her off. I also help to change the cat litter box since it is heavy. Sometimes we bring Desi the cat with us on the walk in a pet stroller. I care for pets in any manner that the client would like me to care for them in their home. That includes staying with them for long stretches, letting them out, throwing a ball around the yard, taking them on walks, etc.
“We recently had Megan stay overnight to take care of our two dogs, and she did a fine job! Picture and text updates let us know we had nothing to worry about. I will definitely be requesting Megan's services again in the future!”
“Krista was absolutely amazing! My cat was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, and I am currently figuring out which medication works for her and making sure she eats enough. I was a bit nervous to leave for a trip during this time. Krista was the best cat sitter I could have asked for. She was extremely communicative, sent tons of photos and videos, and even made a daily log about my cat’s meal times, medication timing, and how she was doing each day. I would rebook with her and recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Taylor did a fantastic job. Our dogs have never been separated from us and they were content and themselves on our return. The house was the same as we left mail neatly stacked on the counter. Couldn’t ask for more”
“Lex took great care of our older dog and loved on him the whole time! She also takes such awesome care of our house. She makes it easy to leave for long periods of time without having to worry about home.”
“Felicity did a wonderful job! I genuinely felt like she cared for my pets as if they were own and she sent me so many pictures !! I will definitely utilize her in the future and I hope others do too ! 🥰”
About: I've grown up with animals ever since I was a kid, they have always held a special place in my heart. From 3 week old puppies to senior dogs, I know how to care for all. Life happens. Whether it is work or personal, it's important to take time away from home, but now all you need to worry about is finding a trusty and reliable person to take care of your fur babies. And that's where I come in! You can count on me to provide the best care for your little creatures. Your animal is my first priority under my care. Of course I'll do all the basics in terms of feeding them, taking them out for walks, and playing with them. As a pet owner myself of a chocolate Pitty-Lab and a cat, I know what it is like to miss your baby while away. I will always provide you with good communication, updates, pictures and just overall relief knowing that your pet is safe and in good hands. I've pet sitted for family and friends for several years, and I love that I am the first one they call when they need someone to watch over their little companions. I work remotely from home for the most part (with some occasional hybrid work). Because of my schedule, I am very flexible. Watching a pet won't be any issue for me as long as I am not expected to be somewhere. I love staying active so going out for walks and being outside is very important in my everyday life. I own two pets myself, so I have relevant experience taking care of dogs and cats on a day to day basis. I understand how important it is to make time out of my day to play with them and care for them. After all, we are these animal's whole universe so they deserve all the time we can give them! I like to let out any dog I watch pretty regularly, especially if they are younger or older I know how important it is to avoid accidents in the house. Your home will look the exact same it did, meaning you don't have to worry about coming home to a mess after being away. I have also watched cats in the past too. I understand how each cat has their own unique personality and based on that I always respect their boundaries and needs. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to keep them mentally stimulated while also giving them the space they may need. I also live in a home with an expansive backyard. I have a chocolate pit-Lab mix who is 1 years old and is very friendly and playful with other animals. I have a cat who is very friendly and good with dogs. Communicate with me the best way to care for your animal and I will certainly follow!

Maribel is a phenomenal sitter! We used Maribel for a week+ trip and she watched our dog and cat in our home. She was quick to reply and sent daily updates to us, she took care of the house and left it in great shape. Our animals looked loved and happy throughout our absence, and when we got home both animals seemed very well cared for. We plan to use Maribel again in the future to watch our girls! Absolute five star care!
These guys are amazing! Our dogs love them and two of them are human-picky: our Pomeranian and our Heeler rescue puppy. Taylor and Luke are just both very kind, gentle people who my dogs knew they could just trust. Also it’s great getting a team when you hire these guys as I just always knew my dogs were in good hands. 5+ stars!!!
Toby was great with our two GSPs. Flynn is getting older and is on medication. Toby did a great job ensuring he actually took all of his meds each day and that they both had plenty of attention and exercise. They were two happy dogs when we got home. 10/10
This was the first time I’ve left all my babies at home for an extended period of time and Brianne did an amazing job at caring for them and making me feel at ease. She was very attentive and careful regarding care instructions, medication management, and sticking to their routines. I got regular updates with pictures and tidbits of their days. She was very professional but at the same time treated them like they were her own. Highly recommend!
Amazing experience! Elisiya made us feel great about leaving our fur babies in her care. She was really good with updates and communication throughout the whole process. Our cats take several medications and she handled it great. Our dogs can also be a lot for one person but she absolutely killed it. Cannot thank her enough.
Stephanie was amazing with our dogs and our home! She provided multiple updates each day and tooonnns of photos! Our house may have been cleaner when we got home than before we left :) all in all- I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Eastlake on Rover is $53.28 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 9,073 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eastlake. 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 Eastlake 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 Eastlake 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 Eastlake 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eastlake. On Rover:
- 94% 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.
