“Erin was so great with my cat! I got lots of updates and she played with him a lot. My cat is usually very shy and he warmed up to her right away. I will definitely want to rebook in the future with her. She also cleaned up a messy hairball and tidied up after my cat when he knocked over the trash can. I am really grateful to Erin for her help. ❤️”
“Lindsay was great with our cat Cricket, visiting her twice a day while we were gone. Cricket was a relaxed and happy cat when we got home. We would definitely book with Lindsay again!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Alex and how well he took care of our two cats while we were away for a week. He was so on top of everything, sent detailed updates and photos with every check-in and it was just so nice to be able to enjoy our vacation without worrying if our cats were in good hands. I would HIGHLY recommend him and will definitely be using him again in the future!”
About: I am a ex-corporate zombie that has embraced my love of nature and animals. I have owned dogs my entire life and have volunteered at several rescues and training facilities. I am conscientious, loving and go above and beyond. I live in a great area with an abundance of amazing outdoor adventures or a lazy stroll down the walking paths. If your pooch is adventurous, let's go on a hike. A dog vacation wouldn't be complete without playing ball, hiking, trail running, I can accommodate any level of adventure. One-on-one service is my priority, as piece of mind should be yours. Cats: I love cats and offer cat house sitting as well as dog sitting! I'm to visit your kitty while you're away. I currently work from home and will accommodate what schedule your pet currently has. There will be times that I will need to leave, but it will be a short time out of the house. I always but collar/harness and leash on before exiting the house. Having a set of guidelines from the owner is helpful, every dog is different on what they enjoy on a walk.
“Anna was fantastic! Great communication and care. We were worried about leaving our elderly dog, but she quickly set our minds at ease. I will definitely be using her again!”

About: Hello and Welcome! As a lifelong animal lover, experienced pet sitter and pet parent, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. Whether you’re traveling, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I’m here to provide reliable, loving care tailored to your dog’s unique needs and personality. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments — from bouncy puppies to chill senior pups. I am currently charging lower rates since I am fairly new to Rover and I am trying to build a clientele. However, I have five years of experience with pet-sitting and I will always work with you to take care of your pet's needs. I also own two dogs and three cats, each with their own unique personality. From the high energy pup who's always ready for a walk, to the shy cat who needs quiet and patience, I'm comfortable catering to all kinds of needs, whether it’s administering medication, working with shy or anxious cats or dogs, or helping maintain a structured routine. I’ll follow your instructions, and do everything I can to make your pet feel happy, secure, and loved. I’m confident in handling: • Dogs with special medical or dietary needs • Multi-pet households • Anxious or shy pets who need extra time to warm up • Lots of love, structure, and playtime! Here’s what you can always count on with me: • Daily updates with photos and notes so you know how your pup is doing • Plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles • A safe, positive environment with lots of attention and affection • Flexible scheduling and open communication A little bit about me: I am a soon-to-be lawyer, and I am currently waiting on my bar exam results! I have three cats, a long-haired tabby, a long-haired calico, and a short-haired black cat. I also have a one-year-old rambunctious cockapoo, and a senior chihuahua that I grew up with. I just moved to Dixon, CA, and I currently live with my tabby, and the rest of my pets stay at my parents' home. If you feel like I could be a good fit for you and your pet, let's set up a meet-and-greet. I’d love to get to know you and your pet, hear all about their routines, and learn how I can help you and your pet. 🐶🐾🐱💕 I have a flexible schedule and I have availability 7 days a week, and I can provide care for your pet during the day and evenings. I live in a one-story house with an ample backyard, and I live with two roommates, one whom has a cat. However, I can drive to your home and spend the night if needed.
About: I’ve been walking my own dogs and taking care of them of over 10 years and I’ve been doing these types of apps for around a year I’m super flexible and free pretty much anytime—my schedule’s wide open right now, so I can hop on walks, drop-ins, boarding, or playtime whenever your pup needs it! Hey, I’ve got a big fenced yard—tons of space for safe play and running around. My one friendly dog loves company, and I can crate if needed.
“Pat was an incredible help for my family! Pat helped with drop in visits to take care of my cat while my husband and I were in the hospital to give birth to our baby! Pat was flexible and understanding of the schedule changes, and most importantly she gave us a peace of mind — her updates and pictures of my cat Risa showed clearly that even though we had to leave her for almost a week, she was doing great and I didn’t need to stress! All of that in an extremely bad heatwave — Pat made sure to turn on fans and bring Risa to a room with AC on. Pat also made sure to text both my husband and me on Rover, so we both could get the updates. She checked in on us too, which we appreciated! In the few days that Pat helped us we felt like we had a trustworthy and caring friend and that something that is so rare to find! Thank you, Pat!”

Mallorie took amazing care of our two cats with drop in visits while we were gone for two weeks. They loved her, and she loved them. Her updates were super helpful and full of pictures, which my family appreciated. Mallorie was very respectful of our home and very responsive. Would definitely have her take care of our cats again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 8,011 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lakeville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lakeville. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
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.
