About: I grew up being the neighborhood go-to for pet sitting. I've even done long term stays with pets while their owners are gone. I love every animal like they are my own and am great with both cats and dogs. I am currently a full time student at George Mason University. Summer break is around the corner and my schedule will better allow for me to care for your pets! In the meantime time, my availability is as shown on my profile! While I do not have the capacity to bring other animals into my home, any pet trusted in my care will be treated with love and respect in the comfort of their own space.
“Hannah was a fantastic cat sitter! This is my first time using a professional service for my kitties, and I was blown away by her thoroughness and fantastic communication. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely ask for her services in the future if needed. Just a fantastic person through and through!”
“Grace is such a wonderful sitter, she’s reliable, always on time. She took care of our two kitties and they looked so happy being watched by Grace. We highly recommend her to anyone for dog sitting, she’s ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with cats 🐈⬛. Thank you so much Grace 🙏🙏🌹”
“Adriane was WONDERFUL. we are so appreciative of her care for our two cats! She is very communicative, responsive, kind, and the girls loved her!!! We will definitely have her back again!”
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. From fostering dogs in California to rescuing countless stray cats and dogs over the years, caring for animals is more than a job it's my passion. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I'll treat your pets like they're my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because it's what I genuinely enjoy doing. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have the time to give pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it's a quick walk or an overnight stay, I'm committed to making sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I always follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Whether I'm stopping in for a visit, taking them on a walk, or staying overnight, I'll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Taylor is awesome! She walked our dog Carson daily for a couple months and she was an absolute lifesaver. Her flexibility and reliability was greatly appreciated. Carson is not the easiest dog to walk and she did a great job. We would highly recommend her!!!”
“Stacy always does a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I’m away! She is great with communication and takes lots of pictures so I know how things are going.”
“Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!”
“She was very flexible with stopping in and seeing Cauldron. My plans got flipped around and she worked with me. Would definitely rebook with her! Thank you again for all your help!”
“Sara and Alex did an amazing job taking care of our sweet, old girl over the weekend. They were very attentive to her needs, taking extra care to ensure she had enough time to do her business, which can take long at times. They gave her tons of love and cuddles, allowing her to feel comfortable while we were gone. We will definitely be hiring them for our next trip!”
“Brenda was such a wonderful Petsitter! I could not be any happier! She was quick to respond to my last min request (4 weeks of daily drop-ins and care for my cat). We chatted and did a meet and greet shortly after my request. She met my cat, Watson, who warmed up to her immediately. I gave her a run down of the house and Watson’s routine. She did everything I asked, coming in everyday to care for Watson and give him attention. She was easy to reach in case and sent regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her as a Petsitter! I would definitely utilize her services again in the future.”
About: My name is Acadia I love taking care of animals and am working to help pay for college! I have been a volunteer foster home for several adoption agencies since 2017, taken care of puppies, elderly dogs, high energy, skittish, small, large (100+ lbs) dogs and more. I have training and handling experience. I have experience with cats as well. I have had labs, a beagle mix, a newfoundland, and a bullmastiff as my own pets. I am very patient and will give every pet my undivided attention and heart. I love animals and getting to take care of them brings me so much joy! I'm currently a college student and have free weekends. I have classes in the middle of the day starting at 11 but can be flexible for mornings and evenings! I have a fenced in yard for my dogs back at home and have them crate trained. For your pets, whatever you feel comfortable with can be arranged. I have experience with leash skills and can take your pet for an enjoying walk or engage with them indoors. Whatever your typical routine is I will do my best to follow and ensure your pets have a great time!
“Anna has been great with my 3 month old puppy! She has been very flexible with my hours since they change a lot and has given me a great peace of mind every day I have her stop by.”
About: I’ve always had animals in my life. We grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, even a duck! We’ve had our animals from babies to adults so I know how to care for animals of all ages. I understand the importance of training and attention for puppies & kittens as well as the patience & extra needed care that elderly pets may require. I’ve always been the go to sitter for friends and family as they know I’ll treat their animals with the same love I have for my own. I’m currently full time but work different hours throughout the week so there’s times where I’m available to care for pets before a shift, after a shift, or both! I have more availability on weekends and sometimes have extra time during the week as well. I have a fenced back yard where your doggos can run around and enjoy some much needed play time and let out their zoomies! I have a 5 year old Olde English Bulldog named Ozzo who’s a sweetheart and loves to play (only for about 10 mins before he gets tired) and a cat Bobo who keeps to himself.

Miss Hannah is absolutely a pleasure to work with we could not recommend her more. Her care for our boys has been absolutely wonderful. She always truly cared for them. Whether it was their litter box is being full or make sure that they are comfortable and make sure they also had tons of love and playtime again we could not recommend her thank you so much Hannah🥹🙏🌷🌞😺😺✨🏡
Brigette is awesome. She’s helped us out with our near senior, somewhat particular spaniel and way too energetic kitten a couple of times now. We come back and they’re tired (in a good way) and happy. We trust her in our home and with our critters. Will definitely use Brigette going forward.
Gabriela has built a great relationship with my two dogs. They totally enjoy her and are excited to see her every time. Gabriela is the only one I have been able to trust with my pets since I’ve moved them here. Her availability is always convenient and she always gives great updates during the day. We are so appreciative her services.
Our expectations were well exceeded by Mary’s excellent communication and her adherence to our agreed schedules. We hadn’t left our pup for an extended period before and was grateful to Mary for her care. We would definitely consider hiring Mary again if she was available! We are particularly pleased when our dog’s pet sitter treats her almost as well as we do with conversation and pets.
Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!
She is a great pet sitter ! 😊 . She’s not just a sitter that sits around and watches your pet. She actually plays with them and loves them like they’re her own. I loved the pictures that she sends and she’s a very great communicator. ! Will be looking forward to booking her again
Daniella did great with checking in on our dogs! They seemed to enjoy their walks with her and didn't have any issues. She left good notes about her visits and was easy to communicate with. We needed additional care for the week and she was willing and able to continue helping out, which was greatly appreciated! I would highly recommend Daniella and rebook her.

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 .
As of August 2026, there are 15,205 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Ridge 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 Ridge. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
