About: Ever since I was a kid, my family always owned a dog or two. When I moved on my own and had my kids, I became a dog owner myself. We were blessed with 2 wonderful dogs that I have potty trained and more. Through the years, my family members have had dogs and I have helped train them and take care of them sitting for them when on vacations. Our kids are dog lovers and huggers. We have a small loving dog. She loves all the new friends that visit. Always waiting to play. Your furry loved one will be treated as part of our family during their stay since we have lots of love to give. There’s always someone home with our furry friends. Everyone in the family plays a part. We have plenty of time to care for our furry friends needs. Weekdays and weekends are no problem, they will be part of our every day routines. At our home, your furry family member will be treated as part of our family. We have a spacious fenced in back yard where your dog can run and play with or without the kids. Our neighborhood is a quiet and wonderful area for walks.
“Emilie was great! We booked her for drop-in visits on short notice, and she responded very quickly and communicated very well. During the visits, she took lots of photos, and even offered to clean up a couple messes that the pups made in the house. I’d highly recommend her again for drop in service!”
“Laurie stepped in for us last minute and was both prompt and efficient. She kept us updated throughout and sent plenty of photos of our pups while we were out of town, which we really appreciated.”
“Stephanie has done an amazing and wonderful job sitting for our cat. She is an excellent communicator and so very helpful in every way. We will continue to hire her for all our cat sitting so long as she will have us! A great experience overall!”

She did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs, and I could tell from the pictures that she sent at each of the drop in visits that our dogs loved her, too!

Katie was wonderful with my cats. One of them is very timid and scared of new people and Katie went out of her way to make him feel comfortable. She was very good with communication throughout the process and I will definitely be asking her to watch th again!
We are so happy you have this awesome cat sitter come and check in on our cats while we were away in vacation earlier this week. They were always fed and give treats. And their needs met so that they were in good shape for when we came back home. Having her come by definitely put us at ease and we don't have to worry about them while we are away.
This is the third time she has taken care of my dog, and once again she did an excellent job. She is reliable, caring, and always keeps me updated. Mexi is excited to see her every time, which says a lot. I feel completely comfortable leaving my pet in her care. Highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lake Helen on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 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 .

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 Helen 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 Helen. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
