About: I’ve dog sat for friends and fellow cast members for over 20 years! I’m truly devoted and prefer to keep your dog in its familiar surroundings. I’m a full-time Disney cast member that have scheduled Fridays and Saturdays off and would be more than happy to watch your baby over the weekend. I prefer to have the dog in its familiar environment and to have a comprehensive plan feeding, sleeping, emergency veterinarian etc. Comfort is the key word!
“Shawnee was awesome! It’s comforting to know your furbaby is in capable hands, and I never doubted her abilities. Daily pictures provided a great connection with Precious while I was away and assured me I made the right choice in trusting Shawnee with my most treasured little companion.”
“Samara is amazing, and you won't regret booking her. She sent me tons of videos and pictures which made me feel like I wasn't so far away and missing my cat. When I got home, he was happy and well fed. Thanks again for making my long trip less stressful and keeping my little dude taken care of.”
About: I have loved pets since I was very young. I used to take care of my brother's dog and my friends. Whenever I could, I would visit my friends to be with their dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a lot of patience with hyper pets! I am currently a teacher, so I can work Mon-Fri after 4 and on the weekends any time. During the summer and holidays, I am more flexible. I make sure that if the dog or cat needs to go out to potty, I take them out. I also walk the dogs/cats and play with them as I keep them company. I try to make sure they are safe and happy! I am not allergic to any pets.
“Elizabeth did a fantastic job at taking care of my two kitties. She cleaned up after them well and made sure to check in with me at every visit. It made being away from them a lot easier. I would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“Relinda did an excellent job watching Harry Pawtter over multiple days! Trustworthy and Responsible are two words that come to mind as Ralinda watched our cat. This was a very unexpected trip due to the death of my Uncle. Ralinda made this trip much easier by taking care of Harry in such a first class way. From pre-booking communications, to an abundance of pictures, and appropriate questions, Ralinda took the concerns about Harry away, and let me concentrate on family. I truly appreciated her professionalism, and would not hesitate to book her again! Thanks so much!”
“Shannon is not only a pet sitter. She gets to know you and your pets before even starting!! She became a friend and made me feel so comfortable while I was away!! Thanks Shannon :)”

“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.”
“This was our first time leaving our cats and we couldn't have chosen anyone better to care for them! Sheryl Lynn was terrific and made all of our furbabies comfortable while we were gone. The daily updates and photos gave us great comfort while we were away.”
About: I'm a dedicated stay-at-home dog mom who loves caring for pups of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I am trained in pet first aid and CPR so your furry family member will always be in safe hands. Whether it's belly rubs, walks or cuddle time, I treat every dog like I would my own.

“I had Isabella drop in for a one-day visit for our dog Grady and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! She was prompt, friendly, and took great care of Grady making sure he had food, water, and plenty of attention. We really appreciated the updates and photos she sent, showing that Grady was relaxed and happy. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I’ll definitely reach out again! Highly recommend”

“Taylor exceeded my expectations while she came and took such great care of my two cats, Leo and Luna! I was very appreciative of the pictures she sent daily and looked forward to receiving them. That’s a very nice touch! Book Taylor without any hesitation as you won’t regret it, highly recommend! A+++”
“Emmy took amazing care of our two dogs while we were out of town this past weekend! They can be a handful and she knew exactly how to handle them! I have found my new sitter and would totally recommend to anyone looking for one in our area!”
“Melinda was fantastic with our cats and went above and beyond! Highly recommend her watching over your cats, and I'll be using her services again for our next trip!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Ashley drop in to watch my dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with care and expertise. My dogs took to her immediately, which is a great sign since they can be a bit picky with new people. Ashley was attentive to their needs, making sure they were fed, walked, and given plenty of playtime and affection. She also kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Ashley’s professionalism and warm personality made the whole experience seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”

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 Lake Alfred 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Alfred. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
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.
