Our pup, Finn, adjusted really well to Haley at our first meet n greet. Would highly recommend to anyone with a dog that needs a bit of extra care.”

When we booked a trip and forgot to include a visit she was super responsive and able to get the extra visit in to make sure our cats were fed and well taken care of.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakewood
Megan was great with my two cats. She sent detailed overviews of each visit, sent great (and funny) photos and made me feel safe leaving me kitten and senior cat that are still adapting to each other, in her care. I will definitely book her again to watch the kitties!
Miguel did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my cat, Anakin! I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was so great with Anakin, and when I got home, Anakin looked peaceful, relaxed, and happy, which gave me so much peace of mind. The house was also spotless and everything was just as I had left it. It was clear that Miguel took great care of both Anakin and our home. I’m so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets. I would happily book him again!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Where do I even begin! Crystal was absolutely phenomenal with our fur babies. From the moment we left, we never once felt worried or anxious about how they were doing. That kind of peace of mind is truly priceless when you are away from your pets. Crystal went above and beyond in every way. She took our dog on multiple long walks, keeping them active, happy and well exercised. It was so clear through her updates and interactions that she genuinely cared for our animals, not just as a job, but as if they were her own. We could not recommend Crystal more highly. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pets with love, dedication and exceptional care, look no further. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Excellent attention to my cats' needs, regular updates with details and photos, and followed instructions perfectly. One of my cats is very shy and hides from strangers, but immediately trusted Kathy and doesn't hide from her at all. Can't ask for a better cat sitter!
First time booking Aubrey, and she delivered exactly as promised! She was friendly at our first meet-up, asked all the right questions, and followed through on every detail. The kitties were happy and relaxed when I returned, and the place was spotless—she even cleaned up a little throw-up! Thank you, Aubrey. Will definitely book again!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lakewood is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 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.

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 .

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.
