“Bonnie has been my saving grace this past week. This was my first time away from my kitten Jade and it was tough, but she sent me adorable pictures everyday and took such good care of my baby. I will definitely recommend her to everyone I know, and I will definitely be rebooking with her too.”

About: I'm a true animal person, and my home proves it. Sir Rocco, my 5-year-old Lab, is my shadow, and our three cats, Nala, Nico and Goldie, keep things lively. My favorite part of caring for pets is getting to know their little personalities: the dog who has to sniff every mailbox, or the cat who pretends not to care but always ends up in your lap. A while back I took in a scared, semi-feral kitten. It took time, gentle hands, and a lot of patience before he let me hold him, and now he follows me around the house. That's how I approach every pet. I let them warm up at their own pace, and I never rush a nervous one. I've cared for pets at every stage of life. I love the silly, curious energy of puppies, and I'm happy to reinforce their potty routine and good habits while you're away. Older dogs have a special place in my heart too. I'm happy to slow down for their pace, keep them comfortable, and give them extra love. I'm also experienced giving medications, whether it's a pill tucked into a treat or a set schedule, so you can trust your pet won't miss a dose. When I'm with your pet, they get my full attention. That means real walks, belly rubs, fetch, cuddles, whatever makes them happy. I'll keep their routine just the way you like it and send you photos so you can see them enjoying their day. I want you to come home to a happy, well-loved pet and feel completely at ease while you're gone. My schedule is flexible, which means I can work around what you and your pet needs instead of the other way around. Whether you need regular walks during the week, drop-in visits while you're at work, or someone to stay with your pet while you travel, just send me a message and we'll find times that work. I always give your pet unhurried, focused time, and I'll do my best to help with last-minute requests too. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I treat your home like it's my own: I follow your house rules, keep things tidy, and always lock up and double-check doors and gates before I leave. On walks, your dog stays leashed and close, and I keep an eye out for other dogs, hot pavement, and anything they shouldn't eat. At our Meet & Greet, I'll get your vet's info and an emergency contact so I'm prepared for anything. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind always come first.

About: I would love the opportunity to meet with you and your fur babies to see if we would be a good fit.I love dogs and cats so much,my life would not be complete without them. I have been in a position that I had to leave my babies at home all day by their self and felt so guilty. So I understand how comforting it is to know,someone can come in and take care of them, and give them the love that they deserve when you cannot. I am very knowledgeable about dogs and their specific needs based on what their particular breed requires. I would provide the best care possible based on their needs and your wants. I have not met a dog that that I didn't love! I love cats too!I have had several dogs over the years that I successfully trained to be well behaved and have been able to correct unwanted behaviors. Many have been rescues.I have helped friends and family anytime they have needed me to over the years. Anything I can do to make your life easier is what I want to do for you.😊 I am retired and would love to take of you best friends at your home. I have to dogs and a cat as well as twin grand babies at my home so I think it's best I sit for you in your home. I can feed, walk and play with your baby or babies. I can bath them and brush them.I will keep them safe at all times.I am good at doing basic training and teaching dogs tricks,(that is most dogs)😊 I will find out about what they like and what they don't like. Their needs depending on their breed, age and health.Depending on your circumstances we will discuss your wishes and I will adhere to them as well as always keep an eye on them, keep them on a leash when outside. Make sure they have everything they need and lots of loving on them if they like to be loved on. I will play with them and make sure to let them outside as often as they need.

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Savannah was amazing taking care of our cats. She has a setup where the cats have their own room to themselves and it is very cat-friendly. She truly knows and understands cat behaviors and quickly picked up on my cats' individual personalities. She kept me updated with daily photos and was very attentive to any questions I had. She was so nice and loved on my cats just like I do. I highly recommend her!”

About: I love taking out pets out to the park to have fun and play, and as long as the owner permits it, I’ll bring my own dog along so they can play together. Additionally, I make sure the dog does their needs at least 3 times a day. One time in the morning after they eat breakfast, one in the middle of the day after they eat lunch, and one time in the night before they go to sleep. I work full time and I have 2 days off. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available all day from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. I am sometimes available on Fridays, so you’d have to advise me 3 days before to see if I can accept your booking. I leave them unleashed in the home and I don’t put them in cages because I believe they should roam free in the house. I play with them for a long time and at night I do it so they can get tired and sleep soundly. I wash their bowls after they eat and make sure their water is clean. I don’t cook for them for safety reasons, so you would have to bring their own food.

About: I have always taken care of my family and friends animals while they were away. I have also always grown up with animals in my house. I like teaching dogs new tricks if I’m allowed and playing with them. Due to my job I don’t work during the summer which clears out my schedule and gives a lot of free time during the day and night. I like to spoil my animals in the ways I know they like to be. I have three dogs and two cats and they all have different personalities. I love showing them affectionate all the time.I like to give them the best of everything, some people say I do to much such as buying expensive food or safe toys but I see animals as my children or friends.

About: I have lots of experience with different types of animals such as cats, dogs , and turtles. Each animal has their needs and I am more than happy to fulfill them. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I do also have experience in taking care of kittens, I used to volunteer at an adoption center and I’m always glad to help out where I can. I am very dedicated to help every one and every paw when there’s any concern. I have lots of time on my hands and I can squeeze any pets into my schedule. I rely heavily on communication and it makes it for me to know ahead of time that I’m needed but I also understand things happen and there’s an emergency and you need someone to care for your pet. Overall I am open to last min walks and I am here for that. I care for pets in my home by being very present and not leaving any animal on their own. This also applies to the clients home. While I am there I will be present as much as I can be.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was seven years old and have shared my life with many pets over the years, including mixed breeds, Boxers, Pugs, a Siberian Husky, and a Miniature Pinscher. I have cared for dogs through every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience, attention, and comfort. I have experience administering medications and caring for senior pets and animals with special needs. I also previously provided pet sitting and boarding services in Brazil, so I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, attentive, and loving caring for your pet while you are away. My home is pet-friendly and welcoming. I have a small, 18-year-old senior dog who is gentle and has lived with both dogs and cats throughout her life. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, feeding schedule, medications, and comfort level. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for as part of the family. I am Brazilian and speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which allows me to communicate comfortably with families from different backgrounds. If you are looking for experienced, patient, and personalized care in a loving home, I would be happy to welcome your pet. I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention. I can also follow your pet’s regular schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure. Safety always comes first. In my home, pets are supervised and welcomed into a clean, calm, and comfortable environment. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, sleeping arrangements, and house rules. I introduce pets gradually and respectfully to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain the pet’s usual routine, and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

“Suhail was very sweet to Ziva, very atttentive. When watching on the furbo she spoke very kindly to Ziva & I appreciate her respecting my no shoes rule in the house because of Ziva's condition. She also went above and beyond washing her hands to prevent germs. As well as helped Ziva correct her standing position every time she would topple. Lots of cuddles. Highly recommend.”

I have LOTS of love to give and your fur baby will be safe and have ALL of my attention. **Please note, I prefer to take care of your fur baby in your home as it's less stressful on animals to stay in their familiar surroundings however, it's your preference.** If chosen to stay at your home, I bring my own food and will leave your home tidy and clean, or the way it was when I arrived for the pet sit opportunity. I am trustworthy and respectful of your home and boundaries. Look forward to meeting you and your fur baby soon! Thank you!

Emmy is the best! I had her come play with my high energy cat 3 days a week for 2 months. She was so sweet to him and knew exactly how to keep him interested throughout the play session. She was always very communicative and friendly! She was also willing to accommodate any last minute changes, like when I picked up an extra shift at work and asked her to come for an extra day. Also the best pics I have of my cat are from Emmy now. She also went the extra mile to make my other cat, who is very anxious around new people, feel comfortable. She did her best to win my scaredy cat over, while making sure to respect her boundaries. I believe the ability to form a bond with an animal, in a way that they are comfortable with, is one of the most important traits that a pet sitter can have and Emmy excels at this! I promise you will not regret booking Emmy to care for your furbaby.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Lake Alfred

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lake Alfred is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $21 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 412 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lake Alfred. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Alfred. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
