“Maddie has been absolutely wonderful with Emmy. She is very responsive, always shows up on time, refills her water bowl, and even takes time to play with her in the backyard. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Emmy is in such caring and attentive hands. If you’re looking for someone friendly, reliable, and truly great with dogs, Maddie is it!”

About: From a young age, my passion for animals has been a lifelong commitment. My deep connection began with rescuing a stray kitten at five years old, and since then, I have devoted my life to being a compassionate caretaker. This includes rescuing and rehabilitating injured animals I find, and regularly helping neighbors by caring for their pets. My entire life has been surrounded by animals, and I treat every one as if they are my own. I currently share my home with two dogs, whom I consider my world. My remote work arrangement provides a flexible schedule, which means I have the availability to seamlessly integrate pet care in to my weekly or daily routine. I have a fenced in yard and live in a very pet friendly neighborhood, allowing me to exercise your pets, by walking or letting them run loose in the backyard. When it comes to watching pets in clients home, I will adhere to there instructions, respecting there home and privacy.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! With over 50 years of personal experience caring for dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has its own personality, needs, and routines. What truly sets me apart is my extensive hands-on experience with senior and special-needs pets. I've cared for dogs with arthritis, limited mobility, and orthopedic injuries, as well as a dog with congenital megaesophagus who requires specialized feeding techniques, including the use of a Bailey Chair. I'm patient, attentive, dependable, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved pets in someone else's care, especially when they have special needs. Whether your pet is young and energetic, a senior who needs a gentler approach, or simply needs some extra love and attention, I'll treat them with the same kindness, patience, and affection I give my own. To me, pets aren't just animals. They're family! I work full-time during the week, but I'm available for drop-in visits and dog walking Monday through Friday from 3PM to 8PM. On Saturdays and Sundays, I offer flexible availability throughout the day. As a lifelong animal lover and devoted pet parent, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I understand how important it is for pets to maintain their regular schedules and receive consistent, dependable care. I carefully plan my visits around my work schedule to ensure every pet receives my full attention, patience, and affection. My weekends offer additional flexibility, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs an afternoon visit, evening companionship, or weekend care, I'm happy to help make their time away from you as comfortable and stress-free as possible! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can maintain their familiar routines in their own homes. During each visit, I provide personalized care based on the pet's individual needs and their owner's instructions. My visits include fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection! I'm also experienced in caring for senior pets and animals with special needs, including mobility limitations and specialized feeding routines. I take the time to understand each pet's personality, preferences, and any special requirements before beginning care. I'm patient with shy or anxious animals and always respect their comfort levels. I also understand the importance of respecting someone's home. I'll treat your home with the same care and consideration I give my own. I'll provide updates and photos during visits so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your beloved pets are receiving attentive, loving care while you're away.

About: Growing up, I was always around animals because my grandma had lots of pets, including dogs, cats, and birds. I would always go to her house to help take care of them and play with them. I also love meeting and spending time with my neighbors’ and friends’ animals. These experiences have taught me to patient, responsible, and caring for every pet. And I hope to build a friendship with yours pet as well!💜 I am currently in college, so I have plenty of time before and after class to care for your pets. I also love working out and taking walks at the park, and it came to mind that getting steps in is even better with a furry friend. 💜 Overall, for animals, I am available when needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and love. I’ll also make sure they have everything they need and keep their space clean and comfortable.

About: I bring genuine enthusiasm and reliability to every pet I care for. With my afternoons and evenings consistently available, I'm there when most pet owners need help- during the workday stretch when dogs need a break and that important evening routine when you're stuck at the office. What makes my approach different is that I truly pay attention to each pet's individual personality. Some dogs need a high-energy adventure walk, while others prefer a leisurely stroll with plenty of sniff breaks. I adapt to what makes your pet happiest and most comfortable, not what's easiest for me. I'm observant and communicative. If I notice anything unusual- a change in appetite, energy level, or behavior- I'll let you know right away. I understand that pets can't tell us when something's wrong, so I stay alert and keep you informed with regular photo updates. I also respect that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I'm punctual, follow instructions carefully, and treat your space with care. You'll never wonder if I showed up or how your pet is doing, I make sure you have that peace of mind. While I'm still growing my professional pet care experience, I approach every dog with patience, care, and a commitment to making sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. Your pet isn't just another appointment on my calendar- they get my full attention and care. Pet care is a natural fit for my schedule and lifestyle. With my part-time job ending in the early afternoon, I'm consistently available from afternoon through evening, which means I can offer flexible walking times, accommodate pets who need midday attention, and be there for evening routines when many pet parents are still at work. I build my week around the pets in my care. I keep my afternoons and evenings open specifically for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your furry family members. This isn't something I squeeze in between other commitments, it's a priority I plan for. My routine includes daily walks for my own household, so adding your pup to our route or stopping by for a visit fits seamlessly into what I'm already doing. I'm also home in the evenings, which means I can handle last-minute requests or provide updates with photos after our time together. Whether your dog needs a consistent daily walk at 3pm or you're looking for someone reliable for afternoon drop-ins, my schedule allows me to be dependable and present for your pet's needs. For dog walking, I tailor each walk to your dog's energy level and needs. I start by learning their temperament, any commands they know, and walking preferences. During walks, I keep them engaged and safe, monitoring their behavior, keeping a secure leash grip, and watching for any signs of discomfort or stress. I always bring water for longer walks, pick up after them, and take different routes to keep things interesting. Before heading out, I ensure doors and gates are properly secured, and when we return, I make sure your pup is settled with fresh water. For drop-in visits, I follow your routine as closely as possible to minimize disruption for your pet. I'll feed them according to your schedule and instructions, refresh water bowls, administer any medications if needed, and give them the attention and playtime they crave. I also do a quick home check, securing doors, bringing in mail or packages if requested, and making sure everything is as it should be. I always send photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and well-cared for while you're away. Safety is my top priority in both services. I'm attentive to your pet's body language, careful about potential hazards during walks (other dogs, traffic, weather), and respectful of your home and belongings during visits. I treat every pet like they're my own and every home like it's my responsibility to protect.

About: I have been around animals since I was born and I am very comfortable around them. I have a dog and three cats, myself and have been the sole person responsible for their care. I have also cared for other people’s pets, dogs and cats of all sizes, since I was in high school. I’ve had experience with administering medication, walking/playing, and cleaning up after animals. I know our pets are like members of the family and I would love to care for your fur babies like they are my own! I am currently working a full time schedule Monday-Thursdays and am just looking for a side gig on the weekends to make some extra money. I have a nice, large patio available for romping around on in the sunshine. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and has lots of shady sidewalks to take a stroll on. I also have a nice dog park, for big and small, less than 5 miles away. I have a 5 year old rescue dog who is very sweet and gets along with others when comfortable.

About: 🐾 Your Pet’s New Favorite Walking Buddy! 💗 Hi! I’m a genuine animal lover and proud dog mom to my Frenchie, Bleu! I know firsthand that pets aren’t just pets — they’re family. That’s why I believe every fur baby deserves love, patience, attention, and lots of belly rubs! I would love to help keep your pups happy, active, and cared for while you’re busy or away. Whether it’s a fun neighborhood walk, a quick drop-in visit, or occasional pet sitting, I’ll make sure your baby gets plenty of attention and affection. I’m dependable, attentive, and understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pet. I also love sending photo updates so you can see just how much fun your little bestie is having! I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! 🐶💕 I currently work from home with plenty of free time. I am able to bring my laptop with me if needed. Other than that I am looking to fill my time. I have a yard, live in a gated community and have a frenchie myself who loves friends to play with. All animals will be spoiled with love.

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, between walking our family dog to neighbors and house sitting for cats and dogs. I have about 8 years in veterinary medicine working as a veterinary technician/ assistant. I love all breeds and seeing all different personalities. I have one dog of my own who is a small Chihuahua, Sophie and I did have a bangle cat named Maui. I am currently working part time in animal clinic Wednesdays - Friday. I will be able to take care of pets Saturday's- Tuesdays. If a pet parent is needed with help on the days I work, I will be able to try and make accommodations as I know how hard it can be to find someone willing and able to care for their fur baby. I have a fenced in yard, I am currently renting and need to remove boarding at the moment but am willing to stay at a pet parents house if needed

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Lake Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lake Park is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,914 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Park. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
