“Patty and Randy were wonderful!! They are very kind and sweet people who took great care of our dog, Penny. When we went to pick up our pup, she was so happy to see us, yet we could tell she had been loved and felt comfortable in their home. Our pup jumped on us to say hello and jumped on Patty as to say goodbye, but thanks for watching me! :) We will definitely have Patty and Randy watch Penny again on our next trip!”

“I was brand new to the area with no established pet sitter and needed to travel last minute. Local kennels couldn’t accommodate me on such short notice. A Google search turned up the Rover app which in turn brought me to Gina and Erik. They had good reviews and repeat customers, so I contacted them via the app. They could accommodate me, had good prices, and asked me if I wanted to come see their home first. My cat is both a mama’s boy and a bit of a scaredy cat. I’d never boarded him before. I was worried he’d think he’d been abandoned again. (He’d been a stray after being adopted as a kitten. He was nine when I adopted him.) He was anxious at first, but in the pictures and videos that Gina and Erik sent, I could see that he was relaxing with them more each day. On the day I was to drive back home, I woke with a migraine. There was no way I could do the drive. I had to ask for an additional day with no advance notice. Fortunately Gina and Erik were able to keep my cat one day longer. Also, I forgot to mention the poopy mess that Gina helped me clean up when I first dropped him off. They provided me with above and beyond service. I wholeheartedly recommend them.”

“Could not have been a better experience! Our puppy dog Tito was treated as family during the course of his stay. Andrea was amazing at letting me know he was doing ok and I think Tito has found a new best friend with Henry! Thank you all so very much !!!”

“Kate is such a kind and sweet carer. Her house has an adventurous, fun backyard and is lovely, welcoming and neat inside. Our dog had so much fun with her three dogs. Kate sent us so many videos and photos. Thank you Kate!!”

“Gina and Gil took such good care of Charlie while we were out of town. I know Charlie enjoyed being able to wander outside in the fenced yard and sunshine to his heart's content. Domingo and Bruiser were nice to Charlie even though he's old. Gina sent me pictures every day! As soon as Charlie got home he knocked out, tired and happy from his sleepover. Would definitely book again.”

About: Dogs have been both my profession and my passion. My background includes working with elite K9s in narcotics detection, explosive detection, apprehension, and executive protection. These experiences taught me how to understand canine behavior, build trust, reinforce training, and safely handle dogs in a variety of situations. What sets me apart is my ability to combine genuine care with professional training experience. Whether your dog is a highly active working breed, a puppy learning good habits, a senior needing patience and support, or a beloved family pet, I provide structured, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, mentally engaged, and well cared for while you're away. I am on your clock. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, structure, and positive interaction. I make time every day to provide dependable care, walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship. I work hard to maintain your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free in your absence. Safety and trust are at the center of everything I do. My experience handling both working K9s and family pets has taught me how to recognize behavior changes, assess situations, and respond appropriately to each dog's needs. I provide a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and positive reinforcement. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely and treat every animal as if they were my own. I believe pet owners deserve peace of mind, so I provide reliable communication, updates, and photos throughout the stay. Your pet's comfort, security, and well-being will always be my highest priorities.
“Young was a wonderful sitter! My two pups stayed the weekend with him while I was out of town and I was really impressed with the whole experience! I received multiple updates, photos and videos of my boys throughout their stay, and it was clear they were having a fantastic time. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you for everything, Young!”

“Ashley was so great helping us last minute when we had travel cancellations! Her flexibility was so so appreciated. Leo had a blast and was exhausted for 2 days after returning home! I’d look to Ashley again for sure!”

“Jacob and his fiancée did such a wonderful job taking care of Teddy! He provided photos and updates often and I was confident he was being well taken care of. My puppy always looked so happy and like he was always having so much fun!”

“Christina and fam are wonderful! It's very clear that they deeply care for their own pets and did everything possible to make sure our two little old ladies were right at home. For me, one of the biggest ways to tell how things went is during pick up. When I got there, my dogs were of course excited to see me but clearly felt right at home with Christina, weren't stressed out or any of those other kinds of things you might look out for. We are so pleased with everything, we are booking again!”


About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets, including senior dogs who need extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves love, respect, and personalized care. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, basic medications, and lots of affection. I treat every pet like family, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring and reliable hands. I work tuesday through saturday normally, but in slow season I work since Wednesday to Saturday...I have availability before and after work, as well as on Sundays and Mondays. I'm happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care when my schedule allows. I'll always communicate clearly and make sure your pet receives the attention, love, and care they deserve. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. I always keep a clean, calm environment, provide plenty of attention and affection, and treat every pet with the same love and respect I give my own.
About: Dogs are part of the family in my home, and I’ll treat yours the same way. I have a large yard with plenty of room to play and relax, and dogs are welcome to make themselves comfortable inside (including cuddling up on the couch). I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. My family includes a larger Labradoodle and a small Chihuahua/Terrier mix, both older, so I am also very comfortable with senior dogs and their needs. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while they’re here. Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I have dogs of my own. I work from home often and have plenty of flexibility for playtime, potty breaks, attention, and lots of cuddles. Your dog will be included in my normal family routine and get plenty of time both inside outside in my large yard. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to play and explore safely. Inside, dogs are treated like family and are welcome to relax, including on the couch. I have both a larger Labradoodle and a small Chihuahua/Terrier mix, so I am very comfortable with different sizes and personalities. Our dogs are older and my home is relaxed, loving, and dog-friendly.

“Our dog usually doesn’t do well with new people. But Jamie understood him completely. Our dog loves be on a high perch and look outside. And Jamie saw that right off the bat. She got two high perches next to the window so that our dog (Coco) had multiple options to choose from. We’re not from the area, but Jamie made us very assured Coco would be alright. Thank you Jamie!”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Lakeridge can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lakeridge home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lakeridge.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lakeridge. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
You and your Lakeridge sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NV ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
