Marcus was great! He does great with teddy who can be a handful, is always communicative and sends lots of pictures and videos. He was even able to accommodate my last minute trip for the holiday with no problem! Have booked him before and will definitely be booking him again!

Great experience with Emma ! She was on time, reliable, and took great care of our two dogs and cat. She was even able to get our usually anxious dog comfortable enough to go outside, which meant a lot to us. Thank you

About: I got my first cat at 10 years old and have had pets in the house ever since. I have two cats and a dog at home now. I am proficient in caring for other people's pets and routinely board and walk the dogs and cats of friends. Comfortable with all sizes of dogs for walking and playing. I can make any day work from 9am-7pm with some advanced notice. I am currently working part time and looking to add in some dog walks and check-ins. I will follow any rules or guideline you require when checking in on your pet. I am incredibly flexible when it comes to how you would like me to go about being in your home and working with your pet.

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’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and couldn’t imagine life without them. I worked eight rewarding years in an animal hospital as receptionist. I’m retired now and have nothing but time. Everyday is spent with my precious one, “Dolce”! Time goes by so very no fast so I like to make the most of it. I like to get to know each of their personalities and give them lots of love and entertainment. Anything I can do to keep them from missing you as much while you are away.

Word can’t even begin to describe AJ, he’s not just my dog walker he is apart of our family. I work an extremely demanding job and he has become by baby Sophie’s best friend. The amount of care and detail he puts into every interaction and rover card is a blessing AJ has become a true blessing in Sophie and my life. He has redefined what it means to be a dog sitter. I don’t know what we would do with out him. When you hire AJ you don’t just haute a care giver you hire your own personal angel 💗

Patrick is a wonderful person sitter! From first communication, he was prompt in his response(s) and attentive to our family’s pet’s individual needs. He recommended a meet and greet to make future visits comfortable for our pets - and us! He sent detailed visit cards and photos for every visit, and it was clear that our German Shepherds were well-cared for in our absence. We highly recommend Patrick as an experienced, caring pet sitter!

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.

Brittany and Jameson watched our cat Celine for us while we were traveling and did an amazing job. They played and snugged with her each day and even sent videos for each drop in which definitely gave us more peace of mind about traveling. To top it all off, Brittany even offered to trim Celine’s nails and did an excellent job. Will definitely book again!!

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—dogs, cats, bearded dragons, snakes, and just about every quirky pet a friend has trusted me with. I even interned at a veterinary office back in high school, which gave me early hands‑on experience with animal behavior and basic care. I provide individualized attention, plenty of playtime and cuddles, regular walkies for the pups, feeding, and medication administration when needed. As a naturally detail‑oriented person, I follow your care instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent and comforting. Your pet will be in safe, attentive, loving hands every step of the way. 🏡 Boarding Routine For boarding, I match your pet’s normal schedule—feeding times, walk times, medication, bedtime routines, and any special habits they rely on. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get plenty of companionship, playtime, and supervision. 🐾 Walkies & Drop-Ins During the week, I'm available for morning and evening walkies & drop-ins. On weekends, my schedule is fully flexible to match your needs. I keep a calm, low‑stress home with plenty of soft, cozy spots for pets to relax. I can separate pets for feeding if that’s part of their routine. The lawn is unfenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on‑leash to keep everyone safe. I make sure pets always have a calm, safe space to relax. Their comfort and safety come first. For Walkies & Drop-ins, I make sure your pet gets attention, potty breaks/walks, fresh water, and anything else they need to stay comfortable until you’re home.

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!!

Jordan is amazing! I feel so comfortable knowing my puppy, Winnie is in her care. She's been dropping in to take care of Winnie over the past few weeks and has done a wonderful job! Jordan is thoughtful, kind, and truly loves animals—you can tell by the way Winnie lights up when she sees her! I really appreciate the detailed updates and adorable photos she sends after each visit (she takes the best pictures!). This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous at first, but I feel so lucky to have found Jordan. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter in Tampa!

Madison is a phenomenal sitter. My cat needs insulin twice per day and can be fearful of strangers administering it, but Madison really went above and beyond to ensure that her needs were met.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Lake Magdalene

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lake Magdalene on Rover is $19.98 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 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 July 2026, there are 3,508 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
  • 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.

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.
