“This is the 3rd time we used Morgan and as always she was amazing with our less than perfect dogs. Morgan can roll with anything. From our one dog who doesn’t like going outside in the rain to our other dog that barks at the TV along with many other things. She gives up video updates throughout the day.”
“Joanna always does an amazing job! She is very good at keeping you updated and following all pet care directions. Somehow I also always come back to my home cleaner than I left it too. My cats genuinely seem comfy with her and I would 100% recommend her.”
“Kira was EXCEPTIONAL and EXCEEDED my expectations in every way. She obviously loves animals and my four dogs absolutely loved her. They all vied for her attention and her positive energy satisfied their demands. She is more than just a dog "sitter." She engages and "plays" with the dogs and they love it. I was very detailed in my requests regarding their care and she was eager to know what I wanted and met their needs beautifully. I had to be gone for four days to visit a very sick friend going through a bone marrow transplant and it was such a blessing to know my dogs were in such trusting, professional, and capable hands. Kira also took great care of my parrot, Buddy. Kira keeps a smile on her face and is very kind and sweet. She communicated with me while I was away and sent pictures of my dogs enjoying themselves. I returned to a home that was as clean as I left it, with a freshly made bed. I will use Kira and only Kira, if she is available. I selfishly and with hesitation HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kira for anyone looking for a dogsitter, because I want to keep her schedule open for when I need her. :) She is definitely a 10/10.”
About: I’ve grown up having various pets my entire life from domestic pets to rehabilitating wildlife! I’ve had more pets than I can list. Of course, cats and dogs, but I’ve also had the joy of loving snakes, raccoons, chickens, rabbits, turtles, a turkey, squirrels, birds, fresh and saltwater fish, you name it! I come from a long line of animal caretakers. My mother owned a pet store when I was young so I had the privilege of learning about and interacting with animals I’ve never even had myself. I’ve put animals in diapers, bottle fed babies before they could even see, given topical and oral medications, helped better facilitate life for animal amputees- all from just growing up with a passion for these beautiful fur(less) babies! Im currently working full time 9-5 M-F so I’m more available for walks in the evenings and full time sitting or boarding on the weekends I have several outdoor dogs and indoor cats. I never assume how an animal might interact with another so I keep my clients dogs separate from my personal animals. Im comfortable housing your pet indoors. If a crate is more comfortable, I’m open to that.
“They were very kind and attentive to all of the care instructions for our three pups! All of our dogs loved them and seemed very happy and well cared for when we got home. They left our home nice and clean as well. Would definitely rebook with them :)”
About: I've had training with a professional dog walker via job shadow over 2 years. I grew up with many dogs and continued to care for close family's dogs after. Currently working part time with dog walking on the side. I have the ability to be flexible with the other job when scheduling walks or boarding. I have a spacious 3 bedroom apartment plenty of space but we also have a closed dog room if needed.i try to always have an eye on them for there safety.
“Stephen was perfect my girls. I appreciate that he was available at late notice and was so accommodating. Lizzie and JuneBug warmed up to him immediately. I am looking forward to using Stephen again.”
“I'm so grateful for Brandi! She truly loves animals and did an excellent job with watching my 2 fur babies! She took excellent care of my spoiled girls and we will be using her again!!!!”
“After my regular sitter cancelled because of family issues I was lucky to find Ariel. She came before the days I needed for a meet n greet. Both of my Boys were fighting over her attention as soon as she got here. I will definitely use her again. My boys are spoiled and love cuddle time. One is a “talker” and she sis great with both.”
“Janie was absolutely fabulous, start to finish. My dog immediately loved her, and I knew the cats would be a little bit standoffish, but she got everybody taken care of. I sure hope she'll come and take care of my little menagerie again!”
“Very happy with how Latoya cared for my babies. I have two dogs and a cat and they we're all loved and cared for while we we're away. Trusting your babies and your home to someone when you're away can always be tough. It is nice to know that I could trust Latoya. Will definitely look for her help again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and personalities for several years. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule, and can provide pet care during weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work with your routine for walks, drop-ins, boarding, or overnight care. I do my best to be available when you and your pet need me most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and routines. I also give regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while away.
“Jhada was so sweet, the boys were so happy and the house was so clean, it doesn’t even look like the dogs were home all weekend much less a new person! Will definitely book again!”
“If you are looking for a sitter who can handle a literal zoo with grace, look no further! We threw a lot at Barbara—dogs, cats, mini donkeys, and even a goat—and she handled them all like a pro. But the real test was our pig. To be fair, she had zero 'swine experience' going in, and our pig definitely knew it. He made it his mission to drive her absolutely bananas, but she didn’t crack! She was patient, attentive, and somehow managed to keep everyone happy and fed. It’s not every day you find someone willing to referee a pig while making sure the donkeys get their ear scratches. We came home to a very calm farm and happy animals. We’ll definitely be booking her again—if the pig hasn't scared her off for good”
“I highly recommend Eric! As a pet sitter myself, it’s tough leaving your beloved animals with someone else, but Eric took wonderful care of our two rescue dogs and one rescue cat. He provided daily updates with pictures … and we came back to happy animals and a clean home😊 Do yourself a favor and book him!”
About: With over 15 years of devoted pet care, I offer personalized attention and professional training expertise, ensuring your furry friend feels loved, safe, and well-behaved while you're away. I am currently not working, so I have very open availability, whether it be for sitting for a fews days or just taking them out. I have a large unfenced back yard with a 100ft leash, a two story house where your pet can run freely. I have a large crate that would fit even a big dog.
“Nicole took great care of my anxious pup. Her communication was great the entire time and she took the cutest pictures. After meeting with her, I felt comfortable with leaving my puppy. When I picked him up, I could tell he was comfortable with Nicole. I'll definitely consider her for future services.”
About: Hi my name is JeVon. I am currently a student at GSU perusing a degree in biology, I love animals because they’re always there for us when we need it most. For “man’s best friend,” they deserve the best care. I own a dog myself that I’ve had for years and I treat him with love and care. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but Dogs are my favorite animals and I will be joining my “STEP” program at my school where we train dogs for blind people.Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets with care and other’s Family pets with the same emotional care. I’ve been surrounded by pets most of my life and would love to take care of yours. I currently have two dogs that I take to park for exercise almost everyday. Pet care for me is a daily consistent routine because of this very reason. I am also part of a dog trading program here at my school. I am available anytime through the week whenever you need me. When it come to taking care of your pets in your home I make it a priority of following the guidelines you have set for me. I do like to play and give rubs to every pet that I sit because I know the important of exercise for pets. If it comes to me boarding your pets I have two friendly dogs that get along with other animals and are very playful and if needed I can cage them as well.
About: I’ve owned a dog and two cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, litter care, playtime, and paying close attention to behavior and overall health. I’ve also pet-sat for friends, making sure their pets stay comfortable, safe, and on their normal routines while they’re away. In addition, I volunteered at a humane society where I walked dogs, fed and cleaned for both dogs and cats, and helped socialize them through play and interaction. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and calm, and I truly enjoy being around animals. I treat every pet with the same level of care and love I’d expect for my own. I work full time but I am available on weekends and from 1-5 during the weekdays. This allows me to be available if the parents of the pet need to be out of town for a weekend. I do drop ins, dog walking, and house sitting in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m really patient and calm and I pay attention to little behavior changes. I know every pet is different, some are super playful and some need space, and I’m good at adjusting to that. I’m also very respectful of your home and I keep things clean and organized. I like sending updates and pictures too so you don’t have to worry while you’re away. I just genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Lakeview Estates is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeview Estates
Shannon S is an absolutely incredible dog sitter! coming into my home and blindly trusting since I have ptsd. But when my partner suggested using Rover instead of a kennel I searched for the person my soul felt would be the most motherly, kind, patient and tough! I am always a little nervous about new people However Shannon agreed to meet with me a day before my partner and I had to leave! Even with her busy schedule, she still made it work! it rained extremely hard while we were gone and there was not one drop of mud anywhere in the house or on the dogs! They were both still spotless! Shannon never complained about the weather. She only reassured us that we picked a right time to go on our trip and that she was holding the fort down!! My partner and I have two 90+ lb dogs who love to play and are needy when it comes to love! We like our dogs to eat at a specific time and to sit on command and Shannon sent us a photo when it was time to feed and it made us feel very comfortable and relaxed! We were kinda last minute for her and she replied right away and since I mentioned that I have two bigs dogs I needed a strong person and seeing the type of dogs Shannon watches on her profile I saw no reason why she wasn’t the sitter for us! I will definitely continue scheduling Shannon s for my babies! My big labsky is a regular flight risk and it makes me nervous as a parent and when he tried to jump my fence she was right on top of it! I am so thrilled with her athletic ability 😝😅 that made me so happy to hear and I am so exited for her to take them to the dog parks and continue watching them because I can tell how content and happy our babies (dogs) are!!! Thank you again Shannon!
Very happy with how Latoya cared for my babies. I have two dogs and a cat and they we're all loved and cared for while we we're away. Trusting your babies and your home to someone when you're away can always be tough. It is nice to know that I could trust Latoya. Will definitely look for her help again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lakeview Estates
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lakeview Estates is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,927 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lakeview Estates. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Lakeview Estates 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 Lakeview Estates 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.
Tip: 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 Lakeview Estates 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 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lakeview Estates. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
