About: I have over four years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, and sizes. My goal is to ensure each animal I work with is fed, happy and healthy. Currently, I am a ride-share driver, which gives me a lot of flexibility over my schedule. I am capable of organizing my work around pet-sitting jobs during the week, on weekends and holidays. I take my dog on two long walks each day to keep her active. My backyard also has a gate, and enough room for her to play in. She maintains a consistent eating schedule, and sees the veterinarian regularly.
About: I'm a former emergency veterinary technician from the University of Florida who loves all animals, but especially dogs! I graduated UF with a degree in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation but did Animal Sciences for 4 years before switching. I'm good with dogs of all sizes, am firm but still a good playmate, and am comfortable working with dogs both healthy and special needs (dog needs to take a pill? I've got you covered!) If an emergency situation comes up, you can count on me to keep your dog safe. I have a dog of my own who keeps me very active so you won't have to worry about your pooch out running me! Have other pets? No problem! I've worked with all animals, cats, birds (have my own!), reptiles, fish, rodents, you name it! My schedule is flexible so long as I am given time beforehand to coordinate! I am currently in between jobs and am very available, with a reliable car for transportation. I always prefer to meet my clients and their pets beforehand that way I can get a good understanding of what is expected and what I should anticipate. I cannot board animals at my home but am more than happy to come to yours!
“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.”
About: I have cared for family and friends’ pets who rely on me for loving, dependable support. I have provided feeding, walks, playtime, attention, and companionship while making sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability to provide your pets with attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy creating a safe and comfortable environment where pets feel happy and loved. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet I care for. When visiting clients’ homes, I respect their space, follow their routines, and provide attentive care, love, and companionship, so pets feel secure while their owners are away.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising my dog from a puppy to now an almost senior dog! He’s been through some challenging health issues, and through it all, I’ve been his caregiver and more. He’s inspired me to return to school to study veterinary medicine and pursue oncology. I’m working towards paying for veterinary assistant program while in school and would love to get more experience in the process! I’m currently taking some courses and have more availability after 11 am on weekdays. I am also available mornings and evenings on weekends! I would say I’m pretty flexible :) I always try my best to keep my dog active, inside and outside of the house. This usually involves going on walks and or doing activities of enrichment at home
“After meeting Dilya, I knew my little ones were in excellent hands - and it was clear that they loved her. She was communicative and - most importantly - reliable. I would book her again!”
“We used Daisy in a pinch for a dropin visit and she gladly accepted. We're lucky to have someone close by that you can easily tell loves her own pups as much as anyone, definitely recommend!”
“Samantha was amazing!! She took care of both my babies and she was great, my cats were comfortable with her. She was very communicative and kept me updated with pictures!! It’s nice to know we have a trusted pet sitter for the next time we travel!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Ridge
Hannah did so well with our dogs! We needed a sitter to drop-in on them short notice, and she was able to cover it. She left good notes and lots of pictures from the drop-in visits. The dogs were their normal, happy selves when we got back at the end of the day!
The process with Brenda was very smooth. She was flexible with our relatively last minute booking and the meet and greet went well. She is punctual and followed our exact routine. Most importantly, all 3 of my cats felt very comfortable around her. Will definitely be using her services again in the future!
Shavedra took great care of our kitties! She sent daily updates and pictures. We didn't realize we were low on dry food, but she let us know in time for us to order delivery. We highly recommend her and will be asking her to sit for us in the future. Thank you, Shavedra!
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

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lake Ridge is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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 14,859 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Ridge. 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 Ridge. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
