“Kass took good care of my cats (and my plant!). Everything was in order when I returned, and communication was also consistent throughout. I would feel comfortable leaving them in her care again.”
About: I had two dogs growing up (little fellas) who were my best friends in the whole world, so I understand the importance of a sitter you can trust. I pride myself on my communication with dog owners. If you'd like frequent messages while you're out of town, I'd be happy to send you daily updates on your pet! Outside of pet sitting, I am also a teaching artist in after-school programming, teaching K-5 students acting and improv to help them build confidence and teamwork skills. Currently working back in my home town of Syracuse for an acting gig, and looking to meet some more dog clients! I work part-time rehearsing weeknight evenings and Saturdays during the day, so I have a lot of free time for drop in visits and walks during the day. If you're out of town for an extended period of time, I'd be happy to provide you with frequent updates on your fur baby while you're away! I promise to always leave your space better than I found it, communicate effectively with you before my stay, and to respect your space and privacy.
“Meaghan was an amazing dog sitter for my high maintenance, sweet, loving beagle! She followed all my instructions and went above and beyond in taking care of my pup! She sent me updates and photos which made me reassured all was good while I was away! I will definitely be booking her again. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”
About: I have had cats and dogs as pets my whole life. I have also been there for friends, family and neighbors when they need a pet sitter. I currently look after both of my parents dogs while they are at work. Looking to do the same for others I currently have an open schedule and generally flexible on what hours I can work. Please let me know how I can help you and care for your pets! I understand animals have their territory and also enjoy when you respect their personal space. Making sure an animal trusts me is important to me.
About: I grew up in Florida surrounded by a wide variety of animals including dogs, and I love being able to care for people’s fur babies like they’re my own. I have experience dog-sitting, dog-walking, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I’m currently working a part-time job at a bookstore while pursuing my Master’s online through SU, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I can easily provide your pet with company in your home or simply go provide them with care and fulfill their needs before leaving. Whatever works best for you! I’ve also house-sit before and stayed with a person’s pet to ensure their dog never felt lonely or without care.
About: I've had pets all of my life and love cats and dogs! I currently have 1 dog (Kaya) and 3 cats (Luna, Goose and Maverick.) I work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I work 8-430 M-F, so depending on distance - I can make quick stops any time during those hours. I can also take a lunch break to go a little farther or stay a little longer. Outside of those hours and on weekends, I am generally wide open. I will be open - I'm just starting out. But I am happy to feed, refill water, clean litter, play and snuggle (or ignore if that's what they prefer,) with cats of all personalities. I can also do some medication. We can discuss your pets particular needs and I'm happy to do whatever you need done!
“Mariana took care of our cat while we went on vacation for 4 days. He’s a little shy but warmed up quickly to her, and seemed very content when we returned. In the past he would be very needy if we were gone for an overnight trip but he was perfectly happy, so it was clear he got a lot of attention and was well armed for. She also sent a bunch of pictures which we appreciated!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 81 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 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.

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 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.
