“Konnie was excellent. She took care of our dog Hunter as if he was her own. She checked in with pictures several times a day which we absolutely loved. She took great pictures too. I can never get him to pose and she did. She took great care of the house as well. While he was so happy when we got home, I know he was well cared for while we were gone. He loved having Konnie her to keep him company for play time and cuddles. If I could give her ten stars I would.”
About: It seems as if I've always had a cat or dog or both since I was in grade school. At this time I have many kitties and one dog. Some of my kitties are foster kitties. Some I can pet and others I enjoy from a distance. I have 1 dog named Frannie. She is possibly a Rottweiler shepherd mix. In the past I grew up with a standard poodle. I have had a shepherd mix, another Rottweiler mix and a pit mix. I have seen all my dogs and cats thru to the rainbow bridge. I have fostered a litter of labrador puppies. That was fun! I currently help my mom with her pug mix named Chloe. I am currently working part time at a pre-school. I have Mondays, weekends, holidays and the summers off. I work until noon Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays until 3pm I would need to make sure your pets are cared for before I go to work @7:15am. I have a neighbor who helps me let my dog out while I'm at work, so I would be free after work to check on your animal(s). I would then need to come back to my house and take care of my animals and then go back to check on yours. I could do that as often as needed and then longer thru the night. I anticipate every situation to be different so depending on the need. I would be able to keep kitties in my spare bedroom. I have a large screen door to put in front of the bedroom door to keep them separate from my animals if needed. I am flexible to what the needs may be
“Megan was absolutely wonderful. She stayed with our three dogs for a long weekend and we felt completely at ease the entire time. She sent consistent updates and photos, took them on walks, picked up after them, and left our home spotless — you truly wouldn’t even know she was here. Our dogs were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We’re so grateful to have found her and already have her booked again. Highly recommend!”
“This is the 3rd time we've used Lori to watch our pup, Marshall. It is so nice to be able to escape on a vacation and know that our baby will be taken care of and loved. Lori stayed at our place again and everything was in order when we returned. She even washed our sheets on the bed! She is such an incredible person, so kind and kept us updated via Rover every day. 10/10 recommend Lori to care for your pet! Thank you Lori!! <3”
“Patience is a wonderful pet sitter! She made me feel at ease with her updates and cute photos of my pet. She was a responsible house guest/sitter and left everything the way she found it. She is also very responsive and flexible. When our flights changed she was very accommodating. I can tell she genuinely loves animals ❤️. I would recommend Patience to a friend and hope to work with her again myself.”
“Not surprising Cassie was absolutely wonderful with our boys! I think they had a way better weekend than us with her. She is so attentive and a great communicator and we are truly lucky to have found her!”
“Kyle took outstanding care of Archie and Rhea (and kept a watchful eye on our home) while we were on vacation. He asked thoughtful questions and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, both pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well-adjusted. Archie and Rhea absolutely adore Kyle—I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again for future trips.”
“She was wonderful. As an experienced pet lover, she immediately bonded with my doggie, Cleo. It was great as she kept me updated with photos and even videos. Cleo was engaged and had a fun time with Kristen. I would highly recommend Kristin.”
“Ava was wonderful! She came over 3 separate times to meet and greet my 3 dogs. She was wonderful with communication and updates daily with lots of pictures! We can’t wait for her to watch them again!”
“We did not know Tara before our trip, and I was a little nervous about leaving our pets with someone new. But I didn’t need to be. She did a wonderful job taking care of our beloved dog, and our bunny, and kept us updated on how they were doing, as we had asked - which allowed me to relax and have a nice time away. I highly recommend her!”
“Sauddi took excellent care of our dogs and our home! She provided ample updates and even left a few toys for the dogs to enjoy after her stay with them. We would absolutely recommend her to others and will not hesitate to rebook with her in the future!”
About: With over two decades of hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, my journey began at the tender age of 5 with our beloved family dog and a few feline companions. As I grew, so did my passion for animal care, leading me to care for hamsters and lizards. However, it was my uncle's venture into breeding English Mastiffs that truly ignited my interest. From the age of 11, I eagerly assisted in nurturing each litter, learning invaluable lessons in canine care and behavior. Throughout my college years, my love for animals never waned, and upon returning home, I welcomed Odin, my Siberian Husky, into my life. Now at 8 years young, Odin remains my loyal companion, finding pure joy in our woodland adventures. Drawing from my past experience, I decided to continue the legacy of responsible breeding, pairing Odin with a German Shepherd owned by my grandfather. This endeavor not only enriched my understanding of canine genetics but also brought joy to loving families who welcomed our pups into their homes. With a deep-rooted commitment to the well-being of animals, I offer a wealth of experience and genuine care to ensure every pet thrives under my watchful eye. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that my furry companions receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. Each morning begins with a routine tailored to meet their needs. This typically involves feeding, grooming, and exercise, ensuring they start the day on the right paw. Throughout the day, I prioritize regular check-ins to ensure their well-being, providing companionship and engagement to keep them happy and stimulated. In the evenings, our routine transitions into winding down together, whether it's through leisurely walks, playtime, or simply lounging together at home. This dedicated time fosters our bond and allows for relaxation after a busy day. On a weekly basis, I carve out time for more extensive activities, such as longer walks or trips to the park, providing ample opportunities for exercise and exploration. Additionally, I schedule regular grooming sessions, veterinary appointments, and training sessions to ensure their physical and mental health is maintained. Moreover, as a responsible pet owner and caregiver, I allocate time for tasks such as cleaning their living environment, maintaining proper nutrition, and addressing any specific needs or concerns they may have. Overall, pet care isn't just a task on my to-do list; it's an integral part of my lifestyle and a source of joy, fulfillment, and companionship that enriches both my life and theirs. When caring for pets in my client's home, whether through pet sitting or dog walking services, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of their furry companions. For pet sitting, my approach involves creating a safe and comfortable environment for the pets while adhering to their usual routines as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their schedule, providing fresh water, administering any necessary medications, and ensuring they receive plenty of exercise and mental stimulation through playtime and interaction. I also maintain cleanliness by cleaning up after them and keeping their living area tidy. Additionally, I offer companionship and affection to alleviate any feelings of loneliness or anxiety while their owners are away. During dog walking sessions, I focus on providing engaging and enjoyable walks tailored to the dog's needs and energy level. I use proper leashes and harnesses for safety and pay attention to their behavior and surroundings to ensure a positive experience. I also incorporate activities such as fetching or sniffing to keep them mentally stimulated and satisfied. Throughout my time in the client's home, I maintain clear communication with the pet owners, providing updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured of their pet's well-being. Overall, whether it's pet sitting or dog walking, my approach is rooted in care, responsibility, and a genuine love for animals.
“My rescue dog Jack loves Marcy. Everything was taken care of while I was gone. She kept in touch with me and gave me a video od Jack that made me smile. I will definitely call on her again.”
“Darien was awesome! Responded quickly when I would message her. She was great with our pups while we were gone for a long weekend. Sent us pics and communicated often. Definitely will use her again!”
“Emmalee housesat and took care of our two cats while we were out of town for a weekend. One cat is very anxious around new people, but Emmalee sent a picture of her doing one of her tricks the very first night, so I knew our girl had already warmed up to her. We came home to happy cats and a clean home. We would definitely use Emmalee again.”

“The pets and house were well tended to. Our dog was really happy to see us and had the zoomies for about an hour. The cats are cats and didn't seem to care too much that we were home. We would love to have her watch our pets and house again in the future.”

“Amanda was great with our three Husky’s. They are all blowing their coats and she did a great job keeping up with the flying fur. Our dogs were so calm and relaxed when we got home, she did a great job of keeping me updated and I didn’t have to worry about whether or not they were well cared for during our vacation!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Slagle
Megan is absolutely amazing! This is the third time she’s stayed with our girls for multiple overnights, and I honestly can’t imagine using anyone else. She takes such incredible care of them, and it’s obvious they absolutely adore her. She communicates throughout the entire stay, sends the BEST updates and photos (seriously, they’re frame-worthy!), and gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. Being able to truly relax on vacation because we know our girls are safe, loved, and spoiled is priceless. We came home to three happy, relaxed pups, and that says everything. We trust Megan completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family. We can’t wait to book with her again!
Emmalee watched our Great Dane and Chihuahua for a week while we were visiting family. We usually take our dogs everywhere but needed to fly this time. Our Chi does not warm up to people very easily, but there we were getting a picture of her sitting with Emmalee on the couch! She was familiar with handling a Great Dane and their quirky behavior, which made us feel comfortable as well. Emmalee is reliable, kept us updated, kept the dogs happy, and even cleaned up after them.(Sorry about that Emmalee. Thanks for cleaning up the dog bed 😬) We will definitely use her again if she'll have us!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lake Slagle
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lake Slagle on Rover is $54.39 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 595 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lake Slagle. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lake Slagle walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lake Slagle maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lake Slagle choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Slagle. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
