About: Home full-time, active outdoors person, and love making dogs a part of my lifestyle! I have a young golden retriever who loves companions and is good with dogs of all sizes, and older one who is slightly more selective, but we stay very active! I will love your pet as my own, give them all the love, attention and activity they need. I will cater to you and your pet's needs to make you feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I currently work remote and on my own schedule - so drop-ins and dogs walks can fit well into my flexible schedule. I rise with the sun and like to stay active during the day! Like my own. They will be well cared for, well exercised and I’ll be sure to provide interaction, play and stimulation while you are away!

Amy is a great cat sitter! We just adopted our cats and left them for the first time, I was very nervous and anxious of leaving them alone but Amy made us feel more relaxed after seeing how responsible and great she was with them. She followed all instructions and showed up on every visit, she sent plenty of pictures and responded quick to messages, she was very nice with our cats and they liked her right away. I definitely recommend her and trust her to take care of our cats again!

Lucy is a very kind person, and my dogs love her. She comes and walks them twice a week when I’m busy with school and they are SO happy to get to spend some time outside with her. She sends photos and gives me little updates on them, and it makes me feel better about leaving my big, grown up babies.

Jennifer continues to be wonderful with my dog Louie! She takes him on walks a few days a week and spends time with him. She is an excellent communicator and really appreciate the updates she gives after seeing Louie. Jennifer is fantastic and really trust her with my dog!

Lauren was wonderful! She accepted the challenge of the diabetic cat that needs insulin shots 2x a day. I have 3 cats that she took wonderful care of. I also received updates and pictures every time she visited. Even though I was on vacation getting updates made me happy. I will definitely be hiring Lauren again when I need a cat sitter.

About: I have pet sat for family members and friends. I also have worked at Wag’n Wash and have a lot of experience with all different types of breeds and temperaments. I know how to properly handle and deal with most if not all situations. I am home for the summer from college in the middle of May, and after I’m home I will be free most of the week with some errands and stuff I have to do in between some days. So I will be able to house sit during the week or just take them on walks or check up on them, depending on what the client wants to do. I work weekends but am able to take breaks and stop by the house if needed. I will insure all the care is specialized to each animal and what service I provide for them. With each pet I will come up with a specific care plan for them and review it with the owner to insure they get a say in what happened while they are gone.

Kaelyn was great with our senior cat! Communication was super clear from the start, and she made sure medication was taken. We were traveling for a death in my family and there was so much going on, it was a huge relief to know our sweet cat was being taken care of back home. Would absolutely hire Kaelyn again.

This is the second time Lauren came to visit my cats while I was out of town. She still had all the notes from last time 3 cats all with special diets. I felt good knowing they would be well taken care of. Thanks Lauren!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lakeville on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,595 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lakeville. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lakeville. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
