“Alaina helped us out last minute. We had never used her before, but she was wonderful! Updated us daily with pics - was quick to respond - even took care of one our boys when he cut his paw on something in the backyard. When we got home from our travels the boys were super happy! Definitely feel comfortable having her watch my boys again!”
“Tony was super communicated and kept us updated about how our fur children were through out our time away. He was very good at handling our dog (who needs medication twice a day) and was pleasant to meet! 10/10 would recommend! Will definitely book with him again!”
About: I have been rescuing & caring for animals for some time now, I have had experience with older animals and younger animals, with bottle feeding to giving them the medical care they need. My weekly routine in consistent and mostly flexible throughout the week, which makes it easier to tie things in between. Work and daily priorities. Pet sitting is where my main ideal routine would be. Giving them my upmost attention. Keeping them active and making sure they are well feed and taken care of. Being alert on essential needs they might have as well as making sure they are loved and adored.
“Christy was so on top of things and went above and beyond when taking care of my pup for four days. She sent tons of photos each day without us asking and it was very sweet :)”
About: I attended BGSU, studying Criminal Justice and Forensic Investigation.I am a very outgoing, friendly, and loving person. I recently adopted my cat Gummy. Previously I’ve taken care of my aunt’s 5 dogs (2 of which are seniors) and 1 cat. I am very familiar with animal medications including: pill pockets, ear cream, topical skin cream, and liquid medicine. My cat Gummy has Stomatitis and Stage 2 Kidney Disease so I’m familiar with having to give gabapentin as well as other medicine. I understand the importance of animals who have medical needs and schedules. I love providing the care your fur babies need!
“After our meet and greet, I felt totally at ease with leaving my Lucy in Emily’s care. She obviously loves dogs, that’s for sure! I went away this weekend feeling no anxiety about going because of that. Emily took excellent care of her, sending me occasional pictures. When I came home, Lucy was very happy to see me, and my house was still in perfect order. Emily is the best💕”

I also clean so if you need a little bit of chores to do around the house. I will!
“We had a wonderful experience with them! We really enjoyed meeting them beforehand and felt very comfortable having them care for our dogs. There were a couple of small communication details to work through at the beginning, but they were very resourceful and everything came together smoothly. They took our dogs on walks, kept them company, and gave them lots of attention. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and would absolutely have them watch our dogs again!”
“Alexis was amazing and the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were well taken care of, and they loved her! Can’t recommend Alexis enough!”
About: Hi! I’m Jess! I’ve been around every animal possible since I was a child- From reptiles to cats and dogs, to farm animals. I have cared for up to 4 large dogs at a time, and I’m currently a fur mom to my giant 6 months old pup and a leopard gecko! 🐾 I currently work full time, but aside from that, my schedule is pretty flexible! I am available anytime I am not at work for your pets needs! I care for pets in their home by sticking to their usual routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for, while keeping the home tidy and following all instructions. I’m attentive to their needs and can provide updates for peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old whether that be my own or someone elses, and I’ve had a passion for training and raising service dogs as well. I plan to do so through multiple programs in college. The nights on weekends could be a little difficult as I work another job however anytime during the week I will more likely than not be overjoyed to take care of your special boy/girl. I always make sure the dogs are more comfortable than I am. It’s their home, they are always fed, walked, and cared for as if they were humans.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeline
Literally the best cat sitter. Our cranky cat likes Nicole, which is a 10 out of 10 recommendation. She stays in communication throughout, our meet and greet showed us that she is very seasoned in taking care of pets. Would recommend that you book for all the times we have not already booked her for.
Kurstin was an excellent sitter, she took care of our pups (120 lbs Black and Tan Hound and a 28 lbs teddy Roosevelt terrier) for 8 days, sent pictures almost everyday. She made sure they were exercised and happy. I would recommend Kurstin to anyone looking for a dog sitter
Chelsea was beyond amazing. Immaculate communication and she sent me so many pics of my kids!! Even with the crazy storm, she still made it to our home and that was such a relief to know our kids were looked after. Chelsea goes above and beyond (she shoveled our driveway and helped a neighbor get unstuck). Would absolutely hire her again!

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 Lakeline 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 Lakeline 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lakeline 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
