“Bradley did an awesome job with our 3, 50+ lb dogs! He came over for a meet and greet because our pack can be a little protective and they warmed up to him immediately! Our female even laid by his feet most of the time which surprised us! We always got updates right on time with pictures of each pup and he even brought our mail inside off the porch one day. We were very happy to have found Bradley right in our neighborhood especially when our original dog plans fell through less than 24 hours before we left for vacation!”
“Samara is just awesome with Little Kitty! She is dependable. Always updates me promptly with any changes or asks for clarification about anything unclear. Little Kitty adores her and is always happy to see her!🥹”
“Shawnee was amazing with our old dog! Our old girl is a very tentative eater and Shawnee would sit on the floor and hand feed her kibble until she got comfortable enough to eat her meal. We were also dealing with fire ants in the yard at the time and I had to keep updating my requests for Shawnee while we treated our yard. Shawnee was so flexible and always did as we asked. I really can’t thank her enough!!”
“Shannon was amazing!! She was very attentive to my big puppies and I can tell she cared for them. She went above and beyond what was expected from me. Definitely someone to choose to watch your babies.”
“Outstanding, high-quality care for our three furry babies, as always! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of them, Sheryl. We truly appreciate everything you do!”
“Ok…..so this was my first time using rover , in fact first time using someone else other then family. Of course I was nervous and a little anxious about someone I didn’t know coming in to my house while I was away on vacation. I book Ashley D for drop ins 3xs a day for 4 days ans she exceeded my expectations!!!! She and her husband treated both my fur babies like they were there own. Kept me updated on a regular basis and went above and beyond. My Chihuahua was even sitting on her lab and eating snakes from her hand by the end , (she is the type of dog that is very stand offish and likes to bark at you). I couldn’t be more satisfied with our everything went , I will definitely book Ashley again and again. Lola and sweetie really enjoyed her company !!!!”
“Elizabeth is kind, attentive, and all around a pleasure to book with! She is great at providing individualized care for our two kitties with very different personalities: she is kind and gentle with our shy kitty and makes him feel safe. She also plays with her more rambunctious kitty and helps get her wiggles out. Excited to continue booking with her. 🫶”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, energy level, and routine, so I tailor each walk or visit to their individual needs. Whether it's a playful puppy who needs patience and positive reinforcement, an active dog who loves exercise, or a senior dog who needs a slower, gentler pace, I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating every client and pet with the same respect and care I'd want for my own family. I have over 30 years of experience with dogs and cats! Pet care is a regular part of my routine, and I schedule my days to give each dog and kitty the time, attention, and exercise they deserve. I enjoy being active, so daily walks and caring for pets fit naturally into my schedule. I prioritize reliability, consistency, and keeping pet parents updated after every visit. I give my big German Shepherd the utmost love and I'll treat your furry friends the exact same way. They all deserve the same love back that they give to us! They're all just family members that are extra furry.
“Taylor spent a lot of time trying to get our shy boy comfortable with her. He did finally come out for loves! She did an excellent job taking care of him! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“I have had Ziva since she was 4 months old. She is the last of my trio of pugs. Now at 16 she has survived surgeries, anemia where we almost lost her, she is my ride or die. I say all that bc I don't trust many people with her. I can count on my hand how many I woukd trust with her. Now I can add a 2nd hand. Lynn was FANTASTIC. I have 4 furbos in my house & every moment I watched was a joy. He talked to her, gave her cuddles, and even did some of her physical therapy exercises. Which I am grateful for bc today is a long work day. When he walked her he used her sling & had patience with her I will absolutely be reaching out to him for future bookings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Again Phenomenal job.”
“Vanessa is always ready to do all things you ask, while taking care of your fur baby. Pictures and report of everything that happened while you were gone. My Figgy loves her, she is the best. Trust worthy, dependable and prompt. She is very caring, Thanks Vanessa you do not disappoint.”
“Thank you Amber for doing amazing Job with Chloe. She was well loved and we know you took great care with her and thanks for doing the extras in our home! I would recommend using her. She’s a fantastic dog sitter! Jim Bechtel”
“Maryana was fantastic. Not only did she follow instructions provided for our cats, but she was attentive and not afraid to go above and beyond. This included her bringing new treats for the cats to try and letting us know if anything out of the norm occurred. We will 100% be booking her again!”
“Lisa did a great job with our pups . We were vacationing in FL and she helped relieve a lot of stress for us with her coming to drop in our Airbnb to take care of our pups . She sent us lots of pictures and it was very nice to also get the Rover report card from her as well as to the details on what the pups did in regards to drink, treats, feeding, potty, and other details. We are very thankful for Lisa and would book again if ever in the area .”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lake Alfred on Rover is $15.54 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,927 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Alfred. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- 94% 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.
