Jamie responds quickly and maintains communication. She was patient and understanding with my dog, who is very particular. During the drop-in visits, Jamie was caring and sweet. I absolutely recommend her for any pet needs!

About: I grew up in a family that brought the pets to the family functions. When someone showed up without their babies, we would ask about them like they were a missing piece we needed. We always had a dog and a cat in the household. My grandmother is a dog groomer, and I helped her out from a very young age, so I have seen every temperament, personality type, shape, and size you can think of, and I love them all! As soon as I moved out on my own, I felt something was missing, so I got a cat and then eventually a dog. I have raised them both since they were very young. I am also the go-to pet sitter for all of my friends because they know I want an excuse to hang out with their pets anyway! I care for them like they are family. I am currently looking for work after completing my master's degree, so I have plenty of free time to give your loved one while you are away! I always try to keep pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. During drop-in visits, I make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, potty breaks, playtime, attention, and plenty of affection based on their personality and comfort level. Safety is very important to me, so I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, and any instructions provided by the owner. I also make sure pets are calm and settled before leaving. I know how important communication is, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I would love to walk and love on your fur babies while you’re away! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I love walking in and seeing the smiles when they know they get to go for a walk! I’m a local PreK teacher so my schedule is usually free after 3:30 on weekdays, but my weekends are usually wide open! Growing up I always had animals in my house so I’m very comfortable with messes they make or medicine they need, so if your babies need that too I’d be more than happy to help! If you’re looking for someone to have your pets feel comfortable and happy all day, even while you’re away, I’d love to be that person! I'm currently a PreK teacher at a local elementary school, so my weekdays are open starting around 3:30 pm! On the weekends, I usually hang out at home or around town, so my schedule is pretty flexible! In your home, I promise to follow whatever makes your pets the most comfortable! Whether your dogs like to lounge on the couch or feel more content in a crate, I'll do whatever you'd like!

About: I have been a pet parent for many years and understand that every pet is unique. I currently share my home with two Huskies and four cats ranging in age from 3 to 20 years old, giving me experience caring for pets at every stage of life. One of my greatest joys has been caring for senior pets and learning their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I understand that older pets often require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I also have experience with energetic dogs, independent cats, and the many different personalities that make our pets so special. I treat every animal as an individual and will provide the same loving, dependable care that I would want for my own pets. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. I am able to offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting while making sure each pet receives individual attention and care. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine and taking the time to provide more than just the basics—making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets is a big responsibility, and I will treat both your pets and your home with respect. During visits, I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routines, provide meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, litter box care, and any needed medications. I will pay attention to your pet’s behavior and communicate with you through updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I believe pets are family, and I will care for yours with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own.

Marisa is the absolute best. I’ve never been happier with a sitter. She is so good with my very anxious dog who takes awhile to warm up and my kitties all love her too! She went above and beyond. Even accepted a last minute drop in request because our flight was delayed. Highly recommend! I hope she’s available every time I need a sitter. Thanks SO much, Marisa!!

About: Hi y’all! I’ve been caring for dogs and other animals since I was 10 years old. I grew up on a farm for several years of my life and I got to care for many different animals! Cats, dogs, chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, and a pony. I’ve also helped family and friends with their farm animals and pets as well. Friends, neighbors, family, and some strangers have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind while they’re away. My last dog Buddy was actually 15 years old and I learned to take care of him very well. He has since passed away but my experiences and memories with him has made my love of animals grow even more! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each pet’s needs while providing reliable, consistent care and attention. I love all animals so they will all be getting the love and attention they need and want from me. I could cuddle all day🥰 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions I’m given regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure around me. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to my surroundings and your pet’s behavior to ensure they remain safe at all times when they are with me. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away from your fur babies.

You can see that she loves animals and Max fell in love with her and looked so happy and comfortable in the pictures she sent me. If you need someone to take care of your baby while you are away she should be your go to sitter. Thank you again Moli, hope we’ll get another opportunity in the future for you to be close and able to take care of my baby again. Thank you! ♥️🐾

About: With a lifelong passion for animal welfare, I bring extensive, hands-on experience to pet care. Having personally raised two cats and two dogs from their earliest stages as kittens and puppies, I possess a deep, intuitive understanding of the unique developmental needs, patience, and specialized attention required at every life stage. Beyond my personal experience, I have long served as the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, building a reputation for reliability, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Whether navigating complex feeding routines, managing energy levels, or providing gentle, nurturing companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. My approach combines professional diligence with the heartfelt devotion that comes from a genuine love for animals, ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and truly cherished while their owners are away. As an active online student, my schedule is naturally flexible, allowing me to provide high-quality, on-demand pet care. I specialize in one-time, high-attention visits that offer families total peace of mind when their regular routines are interrupted. Because my academic workload shifts weekly, I am excellent at communicating my upcoming openings and maintaining a reliable, professional standard for every single visit. I am eager to provide tailored, loving care for your pets whenever your needs arise. My care philosophy is centered on consistency, safety, and individual connection. Whether I am in my own home or yours, I maintain a structured, calm environment that prioritizes the pet's well-being above all else. For Client-Home Visits: I prioritize keeping the pet’s routine exactly as they know it. Before any visit, I conduct a thorough 'pet briefing' to understand their unique personality, favorite play styles, specific dietary needs, and any health protocols. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect, ensuring that I am not just 'checking in,' but providing meaningful enrichment and companionship. With experience raising my own pets from infancy, I am highly attentive to environmental hazards and subtle changes in behavior. I am dedicated to maintaining a clean, secure space and providing undivided attention throughout my time with your pet.My goal is to provide a seamless experience where your pet feels safe, engaged, and truly loaded even if it is just for a single, high-quality visit.

We made arrangements with Lori to care for our 4 cats while we were away for 10 days. Between making arrangements and our departure date, Lori's location changed, and she could've canceled on us. Instead, she adjusted her schedule to accommodate us and ended up spending more time with the cats than originally planned. This was the first time in 4 years that we took a vacation, and our cats really benefitted from the time Lori spent with them. She arrived the same time every morning and made sure they received their dinner at a regular time every afternoon. She shared pictures and info on their activities every day. Lori's won our cats over with her patience and compassion, and we're very grateful.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lake Magdalene on Rover is $19.98 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 3,632 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lake Magdalene. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Magdalene. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
