“Mackenzie successfully hung out with my Sweet & SOUR cat over night. She sent several updates via pictures and videos! 10/10 recommend her to come love on your animals!”
“We’re so grateful for Jessica! She took amazing care of our dog and cat while we were in Italy — daily updates and happy pets! Thank you for giving us peace of mind and allowing us to fully enjoy our trip! Highly recommended and will absolutely book again!”
“Toni was very accommodating to my last minute request. She stayed in my home while we were away on vacation and took amazing care of my senior dogs. The house was left spotless and she sent me many updates throughout the stay to let us know how they were doing. She was very knowledgeable and reliable in caring for my special-needs dog. She gave him insulin twice a day along with his seizure medication. Would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”
“Adrianna was so helpful and a lifesaver! She is clearly an animal lover and it put my mind at ease leaving my puppy for the first time. She provided lots of updates and photos, and my puppy loved her! She went above and beyond 👍”
“Nicole was an excellent dog sitter for my two pups. She arrived on time, communicated well, and provided my pups with the love and care they needed while I was away.”
“Trisha stayed at our house and took great care of our dog and cat while we were away. She was responsible, friendly, communicative...everything you'd want from a pet sitter! Our pets do not eat kibble and she had no issues feeding them fresh food. No issues with anything else pet care related either. She was respectful of our home. She also was super kind and generous in extending our house sitting agreement when we realized our Rover booking was only until the day before we were returning. Thank you for being so easygoing and responsible, Trisha! Our animals hope to see you again.”
“Andrea is a wonderful dog sitter. She takes great care of my older poodle and sends lots of pictures when I am away. The staff in my building all love her. She is respectful and always asks questions if she is uncertain of anything.”
“Kathleen was the most wonderful pet sitter ever! Not only did my 2 dogs and cat love her but so did we! She stayed at my house for 2 weeks while we were in Spain and cooked for them and even watered our plants and took care of our house. My babies were so well taken care of and loved! ❤️ I definitely will be using her every time! I recommend you do too!”
About: Hello! Pleasure to assist you and your lovely doggos and cars this fine day. My name is Vel, I am a 26 yr old Pilates/walk loving girl who works as a paralegal from home. I’ve been the proud owner of two shelter baby boys and recently lost the love of my life Bossley (my 11 yr old Boston Terrier Beagle mix you see on my profile). Due to this loss I’m trying to get back out there and walk all the miles with your dog as I did with mine. Due to being a beginner I am offering very low prices to get to meet new clients in my vicinity. Thanks so much for reading this! I currently work from home with flexible hours as I work with a non-profit who is very work balanced friendly. You will see my schedule change from here to here. For now as a house sitter I will be very diligent with the information you provide me of your babies. Be precise on feeding time Number of walks - including where to walk (parks, neighborhoods, backyard surveillance) - equipment - distance and timing of walks - I am an avid walker and can walk as much as 5 hours. I can also help with bathing if your dogs/babies are chill like that. And I am here for chill nights and playtime!
“Valerie was great! From the moment we met her we knew Rocky would be in greats hands. She took Rocky on many walks and they played plenty of fetch. Valerie is a trustworthy and reliable Rover sitter, we are happy we found her.”
“Thomas did a wonderful job watching our pets and house. Our dog had a wonderful time playing with Rosco. Everyone was happy and stress free when we got home. The house was also very clean.”
About: I have taken care of my two small dogs since I was eight years old after years of begging for one. I love all dogs and understand each one has their own special needs, since my dogs each need different foods, toys, and levels of attention. I am available for night time walks and most every weekend. I know how picky I am about who takes care of my dogs when I travel so I know what it takes to be a trustful, caring pet sitter who will put you at ease of mine when you're away. I am very responsible and will make sure that your dog's care is a priority and that all of their needs are met. I’ve walked and sat for all different types of dogs while living in NYC and have a wide range of experience whether that be hyperactive dogs who need to get their energy out or senior dogs who need a little extra care. I am currently working 9-5 during the week so I am available for any nightly walks or checks in and on the weekends! The weekends I have more flexibility and am available to dog sit or for walks! I have an apartment that is safe for any pet and am a short walk to multiple parks and dog parks! I also am available to stay in a clients home and would respect any rules you have for your pets and your home, as I know how much trust is placed in a pet caregiver. I will make sure to meticulously follow any eating, sleeping, and cleaning habits for the dogs and will respect any home.
“Allie is the BEST! Her understanding, patience and love for dogs is what you need to feel comfortable leaving your fur babies. I have 2 doodles, 1 very difficult, Allie is the ONLY person who is patient and understanding enough to deal with her stress and anxiety of us being away.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve raised and puppy-trained dogs, have experience with exotic animals, and understand that every pet is different. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m free all day Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I only work a short evening shift, and on weekends I work until about 4:30pm. That leaves me with lots of time to make sure your pet gets the attention, walks, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My apartment community has a fenced dog park for safe outdoor play, along with plenty of sidewalks and green spaces for walks. While my apartment is on the smaller side, your pet will have lots of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and one on attention during their stay.
About: I’ve had English Springer Spaniels my entire life, so being around dogs has always been second nature to me. Growing up with energetic, affectionate dogs taught me how important exercise, attention, patience, and play are for keeping dogs happy and healthy I currently work at a marina during weekdays but work at my own schedule. I am happy to drop everything and anything I need in order to take care of your pup. I provide attentive, reliable in-home pet care to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely including walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention while treating your home and pets with the same care and respect I would my own
“Susana was a delight and we couldn’t be more grateful for the way she cared for and loved on our sweet boy. She was respectful, responsive, and sent so many pix/videos. Highly recommend!”
“Lin was amazing at caring for our dog while we were away! I had to book last minute and she was able to take care of everything for us. You can really tell that she cares for dogs. She was great with communication and sending updates also. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m a dog and I highly recommend my human. He’s the best. Seriously. He gives the best belly rubs, knows exactly how I like my treats, and never forgets my favorite toy. He has professional experience taking care of pups like me and not just the easy ones. He’s worked with puppies who chew everything (including his shoelaces), and senior dogs who need a little extra love, patience, and help getting around including his dog Bobby, who is 13 years old. He’s calm when I’m nervous, fun when I’m full of zoomies, and always makes sure I feel safe and loved when my people are away. I’ve seen him work his magic on other pets too, cats, dogs, you name it. They all seem to like him. (Even the grumpy cat across the street.) So if you’re looking for someone to take care of your furry family member like they’re his own, he’s your human. Trust me. I’d give him four paws up if I could. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it’s a natural part of my day to day life. I structure my schedule around making sure pets get the time, attention, and care they need, whether that’s early morning walks, mid day play sessions, or evening snuggles on the couch. I am a student, which means I’m able to give pets plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Walks, feedings, potty breaks, medication—whatever your pet needs, I can work it into my routine without a problem. I love starting and ending my day with tail wags, purrs, and happy paws. Being around animals helps keep me happy, so pet care isn’t just something I do, it’s something I look forward to every single day. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m coming to your home, my goal is always the same, to make them feel safe, loved, and totally comfortable. In my home, pets have a cozy, pet friendly space to relax, play, and be part of the family. I make sure they have a consistent routine with plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I’m mindful of feeding schedules, any special instructions, and making sure your pet feels right at home. If they have a favorite bed, toy, or blanket, I always encourage bringing it along! In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible by having same walk times, same feeding routine, and all the little things that make them feel at ease. I’ll treat your home with care and respect, and make sure you get regular updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a walk, I do everything I can to keep tails wagging and stress levels low (for both you and your pet!).

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Clarke Shores
Great sitter! Took very good care of our dog and cat while we were away so we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about them! Good communication and sent photos with updates for ease of mind. Went above and beyond to deal with our apartment management’s unit inspection and helped us with a last minute request for house care.
Beth was amazing with my dogs! She was kind, reliable, and made me feel completely at ease while they were in her care. She kept me updated, treated them like her own, and it was obvious they were happy and well cared for. I really appreciated her communication and attention to detail. I would absolutely book with Beth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter!
Aline took wonderful care of our cat, Star, while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated throughout her stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Star was well cared for and comfortable when we returned home, and our house was just as we left it. We truly appreciated the care and attention she gave to both Star and our home. We would be happy to have Aline house sit for us again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Camila was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Star. From the moment we connected, she was kind, communicative, and clearly a true animal lover. She took such great care of Star for the day and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camila kept us updated, was attentive to Star’s needs, and treated her like her own. It means so much to know your pet is in good hands, and Camila exceeded our expectations. We’re so grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend! 🐾✨
Toni is one of a kind! Luckily she was available to watch my cat Maggie on a quick out of town overnight stay. She‘s my cat sitter to go! Have used her services before and was so happy to see she was available. As always, the house was impeccable, and all instructions followed..most importantly though my Maggie really likes her. Thanks Toni for being you, I am so glad I found you!
Jonathan and Giannina were wonderful with Mister MacDuffin. They were attentive, communicative and it was clear that he was comfortable and happy in their care. This was my first trip away from him using Rover, and they truly put me at ease. I would gladly book with them again for in house sitting, boarding or daycare. Thank you both so much!
Caleigh is the absolute best when it comes to looking after our two cats any time we are away. Truly could not ask for someone better, as she gives daily updates and spends plenty of time with the boys throughout her stay. They’re both a handful, but she handles their shenanigans with love and care. Thank you, as always!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lake Clarke Shores
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lake Clarke Shores on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,442 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lake Clarke Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lake Clarke Shores walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lake Clarke Shores maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Lake Clarke Shores 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Clarke Shores. 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.
