About: As a certified dog trainer, I provide structured, positive reinforcement-based training tailored to each dog’s needs. I also offer safe and enjoyable walks, ensuring dogs get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m skilled at reading canine body language and behavior, which allows me to provide calm, engaging, and stress-free experiences for each dog I work with. Whether it’s training sessions, hikes, walks, or enrichment, I treat every dog with care, understanding, and empathy. My client hours are Tues.-Fri. from 12 to 8 pm, and Sat. 12 to 3 pm (excluding holidays). As a professional dog trainer, I love spending quality time with pets each day. In addition to caring for my own animals (two dogs, a cat, and several chickens!), I work with shelter dogs and training clients, giving me extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I love providing safe, attentive, and empathetic care, whether it’s through training sessions, hikes, walks, or drop-in enrichment activities. I offer in-home training sessions, Adventure Training sessions, hikes including transport, neighborhood walks, and drop-in enrichment activities, always making the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet a priority. All training is based on positive reinforcement (R+) methods, ensuring dogs feel motivated, engaged, and confident while learning. During hikes and walks, I make sure each dog is leashed, closely monitored, and walked in a safe environment. Communication is a top priority—I provide updates on behavior, progress, and next steps, so you can rest assured that your pet is in capable, attentive, and compassionate hands. All hikes and walks include loose-leash reinforcement.
“We are so pleased with Kass’s great care of our 2 kitties. She’s reliable, kind and a true pet “whisperer”. I wouldn’t hesitate a second to have her back again in the future. Thank you Kass!!!”
“Janyl was professional, knowledgeable and helpful. She's basically a cat expert. Not only did she take perfect care of my 2 cats while I was away, she also gave me a lot of helpful advice on cat behaviors, and how to introduce my new stray cat to my resident cat. We had a great meet and greet, and she eased all my worries. She left thorough (and entertaining) communication every day, and made me feel a lot better about leaving my cats at home without me. I highly recommend booking Janyl for your kitties!”
“Meghanne is awesome! I always know that she will take good care of my girl when I am away and I don’t have to worry about a thing. She is reliable and always lets me know how she is doing.”
“Fourth time using Kristen and she’s just as great as the first time I used her. She’s so good with the boys and even offered to do another feeding session given the bad weather. She’s definitely my go-to!”
“Adriana took fabulous care of my senior cat! She's flexible, professional, and a great commicator -- and my girl loved her. Would definitely book her services again!”
“Our household has several special needs cats that all have a different care routine. Aubrey did an amazing job navigating their different requirements and respecting each of their very unique personalities and special needs. I will 100 percent be booking again in the very near future”
About: I've been a dog owner and lover my whole life, and I've cared for dogs of all ages — from wiggly puppies to sweet senior babies who just need a little extra patience and TLC. I have hands-on experience with small breeds and understand that little dogs often have big personalities and specific needs. My home is calm, safe, and welcoming — no chaos, no stress. I've also cared for dogs with special needs, so I'm comfortable with medications, mobility issues, or anything that requires a little more attentiveness. When your dog is with me, they're not just being "watched" — they're being cared for like they belong here I work from home in a calm environment. I have two cats that are very well behaved and one dog who is a little crazy. She is deaf with some separation anxiety and OCD, but she is such a little sweetheart. I spend all day waiting on these guys hand and foot, what’s one or two more? 😊 My sweet, friendly dog will keep yours company all day long. I live on a cul-de-sac and we take several walks throughout the day.
“My cat felt safe interacting and snuggling up to John within minutes of first meeting him, and I think it’s because of John’s calm, intentional, gentle presence and demeanor. I couldn’t believe this is his first time cat-sitting because he was so good with my cat. He was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the visits, and asked many questions to get to know my cat’s routines and preferences. John was so polite and easygoing. He went above and beyond caring for my cat for the weekend, and this was a last minute scheduling given last minute plans. So grateful for John.”
“Chelsea is amazing!!!!! My little Boston terrier is a very anxious pup and I am always a bit nervous leaving her with people. She quickly became besties with Chelsea and I feel so as ease. Chelsea is so responsive and always accommodates my last minute needs- I can't even express how much of a relief she has brought to our lives!! Thank you Chelsea!!!!”
“Nora did a fantastic job with my cat! On our first meeting with her we felt very comfortable. I was quite nervous about how my cat would be but she sent pictures and comments everyday to ease my mind. I would highly recommend Nora. She is so sweet with my pet and very reliable. I hope that she will be available in the future! Thanks Nora!”
“We hired Jen for four consecutive days while we were out of town to check in on our pug, Charlie. She stopped by each day to feed her, take her outside, and spend some quality time playing with her. Jen was incredibly reliable and communicative throughout the entire process. She even adjusted one of her visits by a couple of hours to accommodate a scheduling change we had, which we really appreciated. Before the booking, Jen also took the time to meet with my wife and I (and, of course, Charlie!) so we could walk through everything in person. That gave us a lot of confidence knowing Charlie would be in good hands. We'll absolutely be booking Jen again. She's dependable, thoughtful, and clearly cares about the pets she looks after. Highly recommended!”
“If I could leave 10 stars I would! Kyliegh is great with Dallas. I was very stressed about finding someone to walk him and spend some time with him while I work but Kyliegh has made all of those fears disappear. Dallas can be difficult and at times even intimidating but she didn’t give up and made sure she did all she could to make Dallas comfortable. I would highly recommend Kyliegh! I have 0 complaints!”
“Erica did a wonderful job while we were away for my daughter’s college graduation! Our two cats were well cared for and she was always there on time. I especially loved the pictures she sent during her visits. I will definitely use Erica’s services the next time we have the need.”
“Amazing pet sitter! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my baby. I got regular updates and could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“Thomas was wonderful with our two kitties. He checked in on them daily and provided us with pictures and updates that were so appreciated. He truly has a gift with our four legged friends!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since an early age. Growing up with a dog, watching my neighbors pets, and now I help take care of my parents 5 year old black lab. I always take care of all of the pets needs. I work remote, so I’m home the whole time to be with your dog and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and company throughout the day. I’m respectful, reliable, and trusting. I’m good at communication. I will follow what you ask for and make sure the pets needs are taken care of!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 302 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lakeport. 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.

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.
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.
