“Jessie is absolutely awesome with my beagle mix, Jake! She walks him around the block and then brings him in and plays with him. He listens to her (not us, so much) and does what she says. Jake loves her and looks forward to her visits. I have Jessie booked until the end of the year because she is so good with him!! Highly recommended!”
“Cat was fabulous! She sent lots of pictures and gave thorough updates each visit. By doing so, she gave me peace of mind while I was away from my pet. If you’re looking for a cat sitter, I 10/10 recommend Cat!”
About: I’m very comfortable around dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I have my own well-trained and socialized dog, and I’ve also worked with dog trainers, so I have experience with basic training, reinforcing commands, leash manners, and encouraging good behavior. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and I always follow each owner’s instructions and their dog’s usual routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can adjust my availability depending on your pet’s routine and needs. Safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, make sure their environment is clean and secure, and always pay attention to their individual behavior and needs.

“I had to leave my two dogs and one cat for a small, weekend trip a couple hours away, so finding someone who could watch them was stressful. I live with my grandmother who watched all three animals in the evening, so I just needed someone to drop-in and quickly let them out. I read Aldyn’s bio and thought that she sounded pretty qualified, so I scheduled a meet and greet and couldn’t have been more thrilled and confidant afterwards. Once I left for the trip, I was in constant communication with Aldyn. She was very communicative and forward with me, which I greatly appreciated. She provided my babies with the best care out there, which relieved a lot of stress for me. Knowing that she was there providing my babies with excellent love and care, even if it was just for a drop-in visit, was awesome. Aldyn was also extremely understanding my situation and was very accepting. I appreciated that very much. I highly recommend Aldyn for any type of service you may require! She is truly exceptional!”
About: Hi there!! My name is Jordan. I have grown up with so many different kinds of animals! I currently have 2 dogs, 5 fish tanks, 2 toads, 1 gecko, 1 turtle, 1 tortoise, and 1 little jumping spider (who i adore to death). My mom is a veterinarian so i’ve grown up surrounded by animals and known animal information all my life. Both of my parents are animal lovers, so of course I am! I love animals so much i have a huge space in my heart for all of them. A lot of people tell me that i love them too much or look at me crazy when i cry over a dead grasshopper or plan my fish a burial service if they have passed instead of flushing them, but it really is just true emotions haha! I will care and love your animals just like my own, i would really love to stay with them and make them feel comfortable :) I work a full time job, monday to friday 8am to 5pm, i take an hour lunch break at 12 pm! i can stay with your pets throughout any day, take care in the morning, if close enough, come and care for lunch time and then straight back after i get off! my job is pretty lenient with accommodations for schedules so please ask if anything different is needed, and i’ll do what i can :) Typically when i pet sit for my clients, i will make sure they are taken care of at the times you need, if needed to be given a good walk i will walk them because i love to walk! I play with them! Anything and everything to make your pets feel at ease and comfortable while you’re away! :)
“Patrick saved the day for us, filling in to take care of our cats when their usual sitter had an emergency. He was extremely communicative and took great care of them. We will definitely rebook!”
About: My experience includes different breeds, sizes, ages-(puppy to senior) disabilities, and some temperaments but exceptions may apply. Understanding individual needs is my best quality. If you have questions please ask. I am a student currently- so I am pretty available unless appointments overlap which I give plenty of notice. It is a top priority of mine to be transparent in scheduling as the animals depend on me! In my care I emphasise accuracy in your routine, plus safety for both me and the pet. If your pet has special requirements for safety such as being known to swallow or chew on certain things, communication is key!
“So sweet and sent plenty of pictures and reassurance that my fur baby was okay! My phone broke while I was away & I came back to plenty of pictures & updates along with a happy kitty lol”
“She was so wonderful with my precious pet and she watered my plants. Definitely use her again. Great with my cat. Arrived early and did everything that my cat needed, including playing with him. Fantastic!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a little girl. They have always been part of my life, and I never had any complaints. I’ve had cats, dogs, lizards, turtles, etc! everyone around me knows my love for animals and asks me questions about their own pets if they don’t know something. My dream is to have a huge farm filled with a bunch of animals. Animals will always be part of who i am :) I currently have a full time job from Tues-Sat so I am available mornings those days, Sunday and Monday all day to care for your babies :) I always treat peoples pets as if they were my own, giving them the care they need if it’s food, cuddles, or walks! whatever the precious pet needs!
“Taylor was awesome with my pups. I had a less than satisfactory experience with a boarding facility as well as my pups have some anxiety with loud noises so I really wanted them to be home where they are comfortable. Taylor was very accommodating with working out a schedule with me. She’s a great communicator and frequently sent visit notes and pictures of the visits. One of my rescues came from an abuse situation and is wary of new people. After a day or so she was cuddling on the couch with Taylor & my other pup. I would not hesitate to hire Taylor again. In fact I look forward to it. Kathy, Rylie and Heidi”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Fern
Alyssha did such a great job taking care of our cats and bunny while we were away for a week! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for while we were gone. She was reliable, kept us updated, and communicated with us throughout the week, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and would absolutely recommend Alyssha and use her again! ❤️ :::
Kassidy was very attentive and very good with communications. She checked in with me every time before, during and after the visit. She also provided lots of pictures and videos while we were away. I felt very comfortable and confident with her care for my cats. I will def be contacting her again next time we are out of town!
Faith took great care of our fur babies. We got stuck for a longer duration out of town due to weather and had to extend care and she was so flexible and caring! She even stopped by to turn the heat up when the trmps dropped! We will definitely ask her to watch them again! Highly recommend!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lake Fern is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit.

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 .
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 , 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 .

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.
