“Lissi is such a breath of fresh air…She is personable, dependable and my cat adores her. It is such a nice feeling to not have to worry about my cat getting the love and attention he is used to while I am away. Lissi is definitely my go to cat sitter.”
“Adriana has "cat-sat' for me before and I feel very comfortable with her taking care of my cats. She is very professional and knowledgeable at what she does. We communicated via text (and pictures) and also by phone to clarify any unexpected issues that I forgot to mention. I recommend Adriana T. for cat-sitting!”
“Savannah was a very great sitter. She boarded my cat, DD, and she was awesome with him! She was very quick to respond and also provided pictures and videos of my cat. She is truly awesome and kind-hearted, I would definitely recommend her and I will definitely look for her when needed.”
About: I’m a dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets for family and friends through house sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and feeding schedules. I previously owned a beautiful Belgian Shepherd named Izzy, who was my adventure buddy for many years. After recently losing her, I’ve found a lot of joy in spending time with and caring for other people’s furry companions. I currently work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility during the day to stop by for potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just some extra company and attention while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a long walk, overnight care, or someone to check in and make sure they’re comfortable, I’m happy to help. As a former dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. My goal is to help give you peace of mind while also giving your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family members while earning a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I'm available to stay overnight at your home Fridays - Tuesday evenings. I have a hybrid work schedule so I am available to drop in during the workday to provide any walks or potty breaks that are needed. I'm unavailable to pet sit, walk, or do drop-ins on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I can spend the night at your home to help ensure your furry companion doesn't experience separation anxiety. I've spent time walking dogs of all sizes, and I make sure to learn any triggers your animals may have before taking them on walks. I'll send photos of your animals while you're away to help you feel at peace and enjoy your vacation or work trip!
“We book Andrea for the 2nd time for drop in visits to feed our cat. She keeps us updated each visit and tells us how our cat is doing and takes photos. Audrea has warm up to our cat and we will continue to book Audrea if we can.”
“Daizy was very attentive and tended to my cat's needs and personality during her drop-ins. She definitely made me feel better about leaving my cat under her care. She's thorough and detailed with her check-ins. I highly recommend Daizy if you're looking for someone to look after your cat with the utmost care.”
“Bronte looked after our cat Pacho for five days. We got photos and updates after each drop-in visit. It was clear Pacho loved her. Bronte is caring, communicative and trustworthy and I would without hesitation recommend her to other pet parents.”
“Jessica is absolutely wonderful. She is very reliable, kind, and responsive. She kept me updated regularly and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. I would definitely choose her again. Highly recommended🤍”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our fur baby Goose (feline) while we were out of the country for an entire week. She communicated really well with us, did a great job following all instructions, and even took the time to build rapport with Goose and learn more about her at our initial meet-and-greet. I think what is also the truest testament of her work is how we came home expecting our kitty to be highly vocal and stressed (like she would be when we’d leave in the past) but upon entering, Goose seemed like she was perfectly fine with us being gone. lol - which we are extremely pleased with as pet parents because that means she was left in great hands. Thanks, Jennifer! We would absolutely book with you again!”
“We’ve used Michelle twice now, and she has taken great care of our two cats both times, including a week-long stay recently. She is responsible, dependable, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated knowing our cats were being well cared for and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future”
About: I’ve had 2 bunnies and currently a 4 year old shitzu. I’ve also taken care of my family’s dogs in Nicaragua. From a Great Dane, Husky, Coker Spaniel, and random mixes. I’ll always treat any animal with kindness and respect I’m currently not working for the summer so I’m free almost all the time. I’m going to school from Monday-Thursday in the fall but I will update then. I will take care of your pets and your house to the upmost standard. I will bring my a game to match your pets energy while also making sure they’re good.
“Lauren took care of Dakota by dropping in 3 times a day for an hour each time. I cannot recommend her enough. Dakota easily bonded with her and seemed to just know she was a good human! Lauren arrived promptly and sent me pictures throughout the day. Texting me with updates as requested. She’s awesome! I will definitely be booking her again in the future! :)”
“another amazing job by Shelli!!! It’s so comforting to be able go out of town with confidence knowing our trio of kitties is well cared for and looked after. Shelli follows our care instructions, and was super flexible when I followed up once out of town with things I initially forgot to share with her regarding the care of our cats. Shelli is the best!!”
“Marby was wonderful. She took extra special care of our cats, one of which had a wounded paw and needed extra attention. She kept in touch with us every day and left the house clean, floors vacuumed and trash emptied. Truly a great house/pet sitter. Could not recommend enough and will hire her again.”
“As a first-time Rover user, I can honestly say that Stefanie put all my concerns at ease. She was very good at communicating and making sure she had all the information necessary. My shy furbaby took an immediate liking to her during our meet-and-greet. During her 30-minute visits, I received thorough updates, as well as pictures to reassure me everything was ok. When I returned from my trip, kitty was as chipper as ever. Without a doubt, I would trust Stefanie to look after my cat the next time I am out of town. I absolutely recommend Stefanie to anyone in need of a petsitter.”
“Yasmin was super awesome! She took excellent care of my senior kitty. It is hard to leave our baby, but she made us so comfortable. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakewood
Anika was great at communicating and I could tell she developed a fun & loving relationship with all the cats. She got to know their personalities quickly and how to interact with each of them. We were gone for our wedding and I was happy to not worry at all about the cats while we were gone, I could tell Anika really cared about them and we were able to relax on our wedding day knowing they were in good hands.
Bronte was great and very understanding. My cats spent most of her visits hiding because she's new and they don't know her. But Malí eventually ventured out and decided Bronte was ok. Hopefully Malí will tell Felis and he'll come out of hiding next time. Thanks, Bronte!
Meghan stepped in at the last minute to care for our cat when our previous sitter had a medical emergency. We were on the East Coast when a Rover employee called & said that our sitter was hospitalized & that they were looking for an emergency replacement. We had a few options, but Meghan was the most responsive and had great reviews. We hadn't even met her, but we truly got lucky that she volunteered to step in. We look forward to meeting her in person the next time that we book through Rover, because we will definitely try to book her the next time we travel.
OMG! I cannot even BEGIN to say how GRATEFUL I AM to have Jessica watch my furbabies! This is my 1st time using Rover & I wasn't worried for one MINUTE that they weren't in the BEST CARE! She made sure my guy got his insulin shots on TIME & even THOUGH the Princessa didn't HONOR Jessica with her presence, she was still so happy to see me when I got home & was no worse for wear! I would recommend her to anyone looking for caring, responsible person to take care of your precious babies, Jessica is it! You won't regret it!
I wanted to tip more but the app limited me? Brionna did a great job and she really helped out by picking up a few more days when I was stuck in Barbados airport with all flights canceled for 3days! Crazy East Coast weather! I recommend using her services as she is professional and thorough. Thank you Brionna!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lakewood on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 9,639 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lakewood. 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 Lakewood. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
