They you Briana and Ethan for taking care of my dogs, you did an awesome job.”
“Morgan was fantastic. It was my first time using a service like this and I was very apprehensive about it Morgan is extremely communicative and answered all of my questions. I will definitely be using Morgan again the next time I need an animal sitter.”
“Margarette had relieved my anxiety of leaving my dog home alone while we were out on vacation. In each drop-in visit, she made sure to keep us updated and send lots of photos. My dog was happy with all of the belly rubs, love, and treats she provided him. I highly recommend her for your fur babies :)”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs since I was little! I have experience with overnight pet sitting, feeding, walking, and play. 🐱 - experience with sweet and “grouchy” cats 🐶 - most dogs I’ve watched are high energy and need long walks and lots of play Have a schedule? Or have no schedule? Either works! I have experience with both kinds of pet parents🤍 I am currently in school so I have plenty of time to have a blast with your pet! Plus I love a walk so that always makes for tons of fun🫶🏼 Depending on your pets needs I can adjust my schedule! Need meds at certain times, longer walks, extra play time? Great! I can arrange my schedule to meet your needs!

Thank you Carly from all of us Griffins, especially from Kai and Nola lol ❤️”

About: I have taken care of both cats and dogs for my entire life, and I have been doing so professionally for about 5 years now. I have a regular office job with a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of availability to care for animals! I use pet sitting as extra income to get through college. I am extremely attentive and careful when I am around animals. Noticing patterns in behaviors is necessary so just in case one of the pets starts acting differently, I will know something is wrong and that I need to change it!
“Cassidy is beyond amazing, she did wonderful with Miles (cat) and truly thankful. She is kind, caring, and a delight with animals and people - if I could give more stars 🌟 I would without hesitation. I will certainly be reaching out to her in the future; she truly is amazing!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 61 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lakeland. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
