“Sydney has been absolutely wonderful with Rambo so far! 🐾❤️ She is very kind, dependable, communicative, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. She always keeps us updated during her visits, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away at work. Rambo seems very comfortable with her, and knowing he gets some extra love, attention, and company during the day means so much to us. We’re so happy we found Sydney and are looking forward to continuing to have her care for Rambo! Highly recommend her! 🥰🐶”

“Adrianna has done one extended stay and one drop in with our 3 dogs- plus our foster dog. We do not have easy dogs. She has been great. Definitely understands how to work with dogs of different temperaments. She is quick to respond and has always followed through and been on time.”

“Lucy was wonderful and did a fabulous job pet-sitting our cat Miracle! This was our first time using a pet-sitting service and we were a little nervous about it. A family member recommended Rover and once we had our Meet & Greet with Lucy, we were so relieved. She was so nice, reassuring and helpful. We really loved the visit updates and photos while we were away, and so grateful for the extra tasks she helped with also. We think Miracle was as happy to have her as we were, and we would definitely rebook with her. We highly recommend Lucy!”

“Emma was very friendly and caring for our needs and our cat Toki. The litter box was always cleaned, her food and water bowls were filled daily. What surprised me the most was that Toki is always so timid and hides, but she always came out for Emma to play! Would recommend and use her again next time we are out of town!”

About: i have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and still live on one. Animals are my passion. I have trained a few of my personal dogs the basics and would love to spend more time with more animals. I drive school bus in the mornings monday - friday and host open houses on the weekends. i am very flexible during the day and evenings I take great pride in having the best care for the animals i look after. I always take care of every animal like my own. they are family not pets in my house.

About: I grew up with both cats and small/medium/large dogs. I have pet sit a couple different times outside of this app. I don’t currently have pets myself and looking for some new furry friends 😻 I currently own my own online business that allows me a lot of downtime. I’ve recently been on a fitness kick and looking to walk some pups and meet some new kitty friends! I have a small, fenced-in dog park at my apartment and easy access to large grassy areas and many walking paths. My apartment is large, spacious, and animal friendly! I have no pets myself so no distractions or issues like that. I like to run around Lebanon Hills and other parks which I’d be happy to bring a fur baby along. 🐕 I am equipped to travel to the homes of those with cats, and to you for pet sitting/dog walking.

About: Hi! I'm Elle and I am a "pet-deprived" student at who recently graduated from UWEC. I did Rover a bunch while in Eau Claire and absolutely loved it. I have a special soft spot for labs, goldens, and vizelas but will love all breeds and sizes. Right now I’m mostly looking for dog walking and house sitting, but may be able to be flexible if needed. I would love to love your dog! As a 4th year student, I have a fairly limited on-campus class schedule. I am not gone more than two hours at a time each day for classes. If for some reason I am unable to get home within a two-hour block, either of my roommates would be happy to provide care and let them out if needed. I would love to take walks around campus with your pet or stay in your home as well! I have a few classes online and would be happy to work out of your home with your pet cuddled up with me. I adore walks around the UWEC campus area and surrounding neighborhoods, so having your pet with me would make them even better! I prefer caring for your pet in your home so that they feel more comfortable, but I am willing and able to care for them in my home if needed. I am very organized and responsible with feeding and medicine schedules if that is what your pet requires.

About: I've spent my entire life taking care of pets. I come from a family animal lovers, so I've spent a lot of time around animals. Although I love pets of all kinds, shapes and ages, I find I have special bonds with older dogs and snuggly cats. I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats and they were my constant companions. I'm comfortable giving medications as long as I am provided with detailed instructions. I appreciate detailed notes about how to care for your pet when more then the basics are needed. I look forward to taking care of your pet and loving them as much as you do. I work my regular job from 6am to 3pm, but when i come home i love to play with my little boy, Meeko. Meeko is a 13 year old Bengal that we rescued in 2014. He was abandoned and we spent a lot of time making him comfortable with us. Now he's the most loving boy. Meeko gets dry food throughout the day and wet food for dinner. He requires his water getting changed out multiple times a day, which we provide from his favorite source, the shower. For now, I am only offering to go to the clients house and not taking them into my home. My cat has some health issues and I don't like to cause him stress by inviting other pets into our home. but I do live next to a very nice park for walking around and I live near a dog park. i love going on walks with dogs and playing fetch. Running around them them and getting out their energy is definitely a goal i reach for.

About: I was a boarding assistant for 2 years. In that time I have gained experience with many different breeds, all with different personalities. I have also been trained in giving medicine to dogs, cats, and even rabbits. I’m currently taking an asynchronous online class, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to check in on, or care for, your pet. I do have appointments every other week, but that won’t get in the way. Following instructions, especially having a checklist of things that need to be completed, is the best way for me to know the exact care your fluffy friend needs. I can work based on whatever schedule is given to me, as well as leaving room for changes if needed.

About: Hi! My name is Phouthavone, but I go by Kat! 🐾 I’ve been around and cared for dogs my entire life. I currently have a 7-year-old rescue dog who’s been part of my family for five years, as well as a 2-year-old cat—so I’m very familiar with caring for both dogs and cats and all their different personalities! Both of my fur babies have sensitive stomachs, so I understand how important it is to follow feeding instructions, dietary restrictions, and routines carefully. I’ll make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-fed while they’re in my care. I also have previous experience as a human caregiver, which has taught me a lot of skills that transfer naturally into pet care—patience, attentiveness, responsibility, following routines, and making sure the person (or pet!) in my care is comfortable and safe. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will treat your fur babies like they’re my own. Whether they want playtime, walks, company, or just lots and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them all the attention they need. 🐶🐱💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I currently work part-time, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your fur babies! I’m available throughout the week and can work around different feeding, walking, and potty schedules. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing with them or just keeping them company and giving them lots of cuddles. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’ll always follow any instructions you leave for me. I’m very attentive when it comes to feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, medications, walks, and anything else your pet may need. I also have a dog and cat of my own, so I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your babies! I’ll treat them like I would want someone to treat mine and keep you updated while you’re away.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Lakeville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lakeville is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 2,620 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 .

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 , 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 .

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 , 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.
