She stepped up and helped me out right away. She has been a Godsend . Has loved on my furbabies and my kitty. I cannot say enough thank yous and HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!! Thank you Alexandra will be asking you again on our next trips if you are available!!”
“Ashley was always prompt and Winter was always waiting for her. I felt so comfortable not having to worry about Winter while I was away.I hope she is available so I can book her for my trip in July.”
“Ashley was great! My cat Tahiti is usually very shy, but Ashley was able to get her to come out for sniffs and pets every time she checked in. Communication was great, and she even helped me out with package pickup. Would definitely book again!”
“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”
“Izzy was the BEST! She was so attentive with our kitties while we were away. She sent pictures and a little recap everyday. We had peace of mind knowing they were being well taken care. Izzy also went above and beyond and brought in packages & mail! We are so happy to have found her.”
“Title: Exceptional Pet Sitter Adriana provided phenomenal care during drop-in visits for my dog. She instantly formed a bond, was consistently punctual, and kept me updated with photos and detailed summaries. Adriana was attentive to my dog's unique needs, providing personalized care that put me at ease. She is professional, reliable, and a genuine animal lover. For anyone needing high-quality pet care, I highly recommend Adriana.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Gwen. She was attentive and communicative. I was able to enjoy my trips without any worry. I will be using her in the future!”
“Bri absolutely saved us. She stepped in last minute to watch our dogs while we were away and was fantastic from start to finish. Communication was easy and reassuring, she was reliable, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable the whole time. Coming home to happy pups made all the difference. We’re incredibly grateful and would trust Bri again in a heartbeat.”
About: My family has had a golden since I was born and I was always entrusted to take responsibility of my latest dog Punkin! Apart from that I have watched and walked neighbor and family friends' dogs! I have experience dealing with dogs on strict diets and certain walking schedules. I also have experience with taking care of senior dogs. All deserve the same love and respect no matter the type or breed. I currently have no other job. I am available for check ins in between 10am (earlier if needed) and 8pm on the weekdays. My schedule does vary on the weekend but base hours for check ins are 10am till 7pm! Consultation regarding times for house sitting are open always! I have experience regarding crating the dog. I have no dogs at the moment at my house and currently am not offering services at my house. I always provide a good amount of play time and long walks for each pet but make sure they are comfortable with my presence first.
“I’ve used Rover for about 6 years, and it’s always a process trying to find a solid pet sitter for my dog Swiper when I change duty stations. However, this time around I was blessed to nail it on the first try! Hellen went well out of her way to make sure my dog was well taken care of while I was away on a work trip. He is a high energy dog, and Hellen braved rain storms and winds to let him out, play, and run with him. And even when I was stuck an extra day due to weather for my work trip, I felt that Swiper was in good hands. I highly recommend her as a go to dog sitter if you want that peace of mind that you’re dog is in good hands.”
About: I’ve been around animals including dogs, cats, and horses a majority of my life and have been working/volunteering at animal shelters and a therapeutic horseback riding center for about 6 years. I’ve loved and cared for animals of all ages from puppies and kittens to seniors 🐾 I have plenty of experience with animals who face behavioral obstacles such as anxiety or reactivity. I’m comfortable with administering medications or following established training plans to help keep them happy, healthy, and successful. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide them with all the mental and physical enrichment that they need, including plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles! My time will be fully devoted to providing individualized care for your fur baby :) I’m also CPR and First Aid AHA certified and work as a part-time EMT, so I’m comfortable responding calmly and appropriately in emergency situations as your pet’s safety is my absolute priority🐱🐩💕 My schedule is pretty flexible as I just work 2-3 days a week, but I can work around and accommodate you however you need with proper scheduling and communication! I’m currently working part time, but on my days off I’ll have lots of time to dedicate to your fur babies! My availability is pretty flexible. I prefer to have a run down of the pets’ routine or any quirks they might have when I am house sitting. I’m a strong believer in sticking to their usual routine and making the animals comfortable!
“Laura watched our 3 babies for 8 days. She did an amazing job with giving us updates. Her attention to our family was exceptional, and we will absolutely use her again. Thank you so much Laura, and happy New Year.”
“Anaisse is amazing!, She had great and constant communication; and always sent pictures. I felt secure leaving my babies at home knowing she would come check-in on them.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I love all kinds of animals, and animals all seem to love me. I have two dogs of my own, a cat, 2 birds, an axolotl, a fish, and 3 snakes. I have always had a lot of love for animals. I even have several years of experience as a dog washer and grooming assistant. In my opinion, animals are just as important members of the family as anyone. Their care should be just as key as the human members. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur/scale/festhered babies :) My entire routine is built around caring for all of my pets to make sure they are thriving. I chose them to live with me, it is my responsibility to make sure they live their happiest and healthiest life. I follow the directions given to me diligently. Most animals like routine, so I try to stick to the routines given to me. If allowed to add enrichment, say treats or the like, I do so.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Golden Lakes on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,801 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Golden Lakes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Golden Lakes. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
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.
