“Jacell did exactly what was asked of her and texted me to let me know she would be a little late one day. I will be using her again. She’s awesome!! My lil boi was so happy with her.”
“Naomi was so wonderful with my senior Great Dane who had a lot of accidents while I was away. She never complained- just got the job done and was very caring for my sweet gal. Thank you!!”
“Rachel, thank you so much for taking such great care of our sweet girl!! This was our first time using Rover and you made the experience so amazing. We looked forward to our daily updates and photos from your visits. It made taking a trip so much easier knowing our cat was being cared for without having to board her so she could stay in the comfort of her home.”
About: I have loved and cared for a wide range of pets and personalities, understanding that each one has their own unique needs and routines. I take the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for by carefully following instructions and maintaining consistency in their routine. I also provide regular communication, updates, and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away, unless requested otherwise. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy incorporating into my routine. While I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9 to 5, I am able to stay overnight in clients home so pets can stay comfortable and in their familiar space and routine. Depending on the location, I can also stop by during lunch breaks for walks, potty breaks, feedings, medications, and extra attention. I prioritize making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am very attentive when it comes to following all instructions, routines, and rules provided by pet owners to ensure pets remain comfortable and stress-free while in my care. I understand every pet has different personalities, boundaries, and needs, and I take the time to learn their mannerisms and routine so I can provide care that feels familiar and safe to them. Whether in my client’s home or during visits, my priority is always creating a calm, comfortable, and happy environment where pets feel secure and well cared for.
“Ms. Eva took phenomenal care of my 3 fur babies. She is extremely professional and went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for. I would definitely recommend Eva. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Adrianna was great with our pups! She took the time to come meet them before her scheduled drop ins and they warmed up to her immediately. She was prompt and responsive and we would have no hesitation to book with her again!”
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I have a 15-year-old toy poodle of my own (lives with my parents now) , and I’ve also cared for my family’s dogs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently looking for a part-time opportunity and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available any day at the moment and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to follow any routines, instructions, or special requests you provide. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of outdoor time, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment and currently do not have any pets, so your dog will have my full attention. I’m also happy to pet sit in your home if that is more comfortable for you and your pet. I will follow your instructions, routines, and house rules, while making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day.
About: Pets have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. From hamsters and fish to cats and dogs, I’ve always had the joy of caring for animals, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Over the years, I’ve also rescued several pets of my own, which has made my love and appreciation for animals even stronger. When you’re away, I want your pets to feel just as safe, loved, and comfortable as they do at home. I offer pet walks, daily drop-ins, overnight sitting, and boarding, and I’m happy to work with whatever routine and care style makes your pet happiest. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed, and I’m currently in school pursuing a career in healthcare. My schedule allows me to be available pretty much every day, giving me plenty of flexibility to give your pets the time, attention, and love they deserve. Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I am currently a student pursuing a degree in healthcare so I will be available most days as I am attending a local college. I am happy to do multiple daily drops-ins, daily walks, and weekend overnight sittings. I live on the first floor of my apartment complex that have multiple dog parks within it. It is a pet friendly community with plenty of walking trails all around the area. I recently lost my dog from old age, so my apartment is ready to host your babies!
“Sara was amazing with the boys. And so patient. My great Pyrenees can get pretty loud. She gave him his space and let him get used to her. She made multiple trips to meet them before the actual visits. This is my first trip leaving them. Sara sent pictures and kept me updated. Absolutely will use again.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and personalized attention for each pet, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like part of my own family. I also focus on clear communication with pet owners to keep them updated and at ease. I am currently a senior in highschool and the thing i enjoy most is animals! I have two maltipoos in my home and i am their main care taker but just meeting new dogs brightens up my day. It’s not about the money when it comes to pet care, it’s getting to spread my love to other animals! I make sure to keep pets comfortable and calm by sticking to their usual routine, giving them lots of love, playtime, and exercise. Whether they’re at my place or yours, I follow any special care instructions closely and keep the environment safe and clean. I also update you regularly so you know your pets are happy and well cared for.
“Brianna is very dependable and thorough. She took very good care of our cats (fed them and scooped their litter daily exactly according to our instructions). She brought in our mail and watered a couple of our plants. She also sent us photos of our pet every day. I highly recommend Brianna!”
“Angie was amazing with both my cats and dogs! Super easy to communicate with, kept me updated, and sent the cutest photos while I was away. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you, Laura for taking such great care of my three kitties, Emmylou, L’il Bit and Priscilla over the last 12 days. Three litter boxes, water bowls and fountain as well as two patios with plants! Not to mention all the pictures of them as well as Belle and O’Henry the outside kitties. It’s always reassuring that when I’m away you are there to take such great care of my cats. Thank you and have a Happy 4th of July! 😻😸🇺🇸”
About: I have had 3 pups in my life, and had a roommate with 2 cats over the last year. I take care of my friends’ pets regularly, and am used to specialized routines for pets with unique needs. I am a healthcare professional who values safety, timeliness, and ultimately kindness. I work full-time during the week, but am available for extended morning and evening visits, and drop-ins throughout the day. My schedule is much more open on the weekend! Happy to work with you to find the best schedule for your pet. I have taken care of pets in fenced and non-enclosed areas, and I have had dogs that are both crate trained and not. Whatever will be best for your pup is what will be best for me!

I do own two fur babies a beagle name Gator and a blue heeler name Honey. I have taken care of older dogs and as well as puppies. Walks, baths, overnight stays, or just to say hi, I am up for the job. I will take care of your baby just as I would my own and give them the best care possible. I do work part-time and do go to school on Tuesday and Thursday but that is all done in the mornings. I am more available in the evenings and weekends. There will be some days and especially holidays where i will be able to take pet sit more frequently. I am down for either crating or not in your home I can work with both. I have taken care of dogs who love to sleep on the same bed and those who need to be crated. I don’t do boarding at my house just because I do live my family and my dogs can be a rowdy when it comes to other dogs. What ever you need I am up for the job.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Lago
A huge shout out to Arianna for watching over my little doggo partner in crime, Echo! She great in communicating how Ericka was doing, and sent me pictures of him during her visits. I will definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Thank you for all your hard work, Arianna!
Najwa was our first experience using the Rover app and we couldn’t be happier! She dropped in to look after our fur babies while we were traveling with so much love and care, going well above and beyond what was expected. She was quick and easy to communicate with and provided us with great photos and updates during each visit which helped assure me that they were in the best of hands. Definitely will be using Najwa again in the future!
Faith has tended to our beasties on two separate occasions (once during a long weekend that included some nasty weather and again over a long holiday weekend), and we will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind, reliable and wonderfully personable caregiver!
We needed a last minute dog sitter for our three elderly dogs, and thank goodness we found Ella! She came over before the visit to meet us and the dogs who loved her immediately. She gave them their medicine and tons of love. She also took the cutest pictures. We will definitely be using her again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a El Lago stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 El Lago 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!
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in El Lago with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
