“Olivia was great and did a great job. I have had other pet sitters in the past and they forgot something but Olivia did not. She is a professional pet sitter and passionate about animals.”

About: Hi! We’re Brandi and Cayden — a couple who absolutely love animals and would be excited to care for your pets while you’re away! We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. We’re responsible, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re part of our own family. We’ll make sure your pets stay comfortable in their normal routine while getting plenty of love, attention, playtime, and exercise. Being a couple also means your pet gets two people looking out for them, giving them extra attention and care. Whether your pet is energetic and loves long walks or prefers to relax and have some cuddles, we’re happy to meet them where they’re at. We’ll keep you updated while you’re away with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. We’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets! 🐶🐾 Between the two of us, our schedule is very flexible, and we’re generally available most days and times! We’re happy to work with your schedule and find a time that works best for both you and your pet. Since our availability can vary from week to week, just reach out with the dates and times you need, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you. 🐾 We’ll keep your pet comfortable and happy in their own home by following their normal routine, providing plenty of love and attention, and making sure they have fresh food, water, and a clean space. We’ll also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾
“Absolutely wonderful dog sitter! Excellent communication, always on time, and the photos from each visit were so comforting and reassuring. Most importantly, my dog was incredibly happy and relaxed when I returned. I felt completely confident knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I can provide boarding pet services for your furry baby. I have successfully cared for dogs, cats, and bunnies for over a decade. I am experienced in managing dietary needs, administering insulin injections, and am happy to collect mail and water plants. I treat every pet with the love and respect they deserve! I currently work a hybrid schedule where I work from home a few days a week so I can attend to your animals more frequently and give them more attention. I will care for your pets as I care for my own. Just let me know their needs, and I will take care of them. I can keep them separated for my own pets for their comfort.
“From the moment Amelia met my dogs during our meet-and-greet, it was obvious that she was very comfortable with pets, which was extremely important to me. She was punctual for both the meet-and-greet and every visit, followed all of the instructions, and communicated very well throughout. Most importantly, my dogs were comfortable with her, and I felt they received genuinely kind, attentive, and caring care. I will definitely be using Amelia again for my future pet-sitting needs and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Highly recommend Nevaeh! I felt more at ease using this app for the first time and leaving my pups overnight. She provided updates and included pics every drop in. Would 100% use her again 🤍”


“Dylan did an excellent job taking care of my three kitties. He arrived each day as scheduled to feed them and clean out the litter box. He sent me pictures daily along with a nice update. I definitely recommend Dylan!”

“We’ve already booked Michelle for the next month - yes - we liked her that much. It was evident that she’s very comfort with dogs. She asked the right questions to get to know the pups during meet and greet. The visit went smoothly. Great communication throughout.”
“Amanda was warm and caring immediately, so I knew my rabbit would like her company! He usually hides when new people are around but he came out and let her love on him during each visit. She kept me updated the whole time I was away and sent me pictures of my boy!! I felt at ease knowing Clyde was in her care. Thank you, Amanda!”

“We are SO thankful we found Emma! She went above and beyond for us (our vacation coincided with Hurricane Ian) and took excellent care of our cat, Pepper. She is flexible and communicative. We could tell she really cares about the animals and is respectful of the home. We recommend her and will definitely use her again and again!”

About: Never stress about your pup again- I’m here to help! I am an animal lover. I’ve had a dog and cats throughout my life. Im here to help while you take a day, weekend, or week away! While you’re gone on, we can take walks, take naps, and make memories! I am an active 33 year old who is willing to put your pets in my heart + home and care for them like I do my own! I am an independent, reliable individual who can follow specific directions and dietary needs for your pet. Please feel free to message me with any questions or requests!

I have mornings, afternoons, and late evenings free for walks or drop ins. I have availability on weekdays and occasional weekends. Let me know what you need! It is very important to know the ins-and-outs of your home when staying over. Does your pet like getting into mischief? Is there any items that frighten them? How can I best show them love and affection? Are there any couch or bed rules?
About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a kitten, I’m well-versed in managing different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I provide reliable, attentive care—whether that means active neighborhood walks or quiet drop-ins with plenty of play and affection. I’ll treat your pets with the same level of care and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily accommodate drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine alongside caring for my own animals. Safety is my top priority. I always verify doors and gates are secure, follow detailed care instructions closely, and keep pets properly leashed or supervised during all visits and outdoor time.
“I have repeatedly used Daniella because my kitties are in very good care with her, I believe they look forward to seeing her and I love getting photos of them. If you’re looking for a sitter, you will be very pleased using Daniella.”

About: Hello pet parents! I bring 15 years of deep pet care experience to Rover, rooted in a lifetime of loving animals. I actually grew up on a farm caring for a wide variety of different animals from a young age. This foundational upbringing instilled in me an instinctual understanding of animal behavior and welfare. As an adult dog owner, I experienced the rewards of adopting and completely training an Australian Shepherd and a Border Collie. Raising two incredibly intelligent, high-energy working breeds taught me the absolute necessity of patience, positive reinforcement, and clear structural routines. Today, my Aussie manages hypothyroidism, which means I am deeply familiar with specialized medical care. I am fully accustomed to administering daily medications exactly on schedule and maintaining a carefully balanced exercise routine to keep her healthy and thriving. I am currently an Orthodontic Intern at LECOM School of Dental Medicine. My hours are 8:15AM-11:45AM and 12:45PM-3:45PM. I am available to stop in around the morning, lunch, and afternoon hours. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I seamlessly maintain your pet’s familiar routine while providing engagement and love. I excel at balancing active play, including backyard games and safe, fun trips to local dog parks, with calm, reassuring comfort to ease separation anxiety. I respect your home’s security and rules, maintain total cleanliness, and send photo updates to keep you completely worry free.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Lakewood Ranch is $20
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakewood Ranch
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Daniella! From our very first meet-and-greet, she was so warm, kind, and engaging, and it was immediately obvious how much she truly loves animals. Daniella took such wonderful care of our three kitties while we were away. She gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were loved, cared for, and in such good hands. Thank you so much, Daniella, for taking such great care of Louis, Keke, & Fig and treating them with so much love and attention. We are truly grateful and would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets. We’ll definitely be booking with you again! ❤️🐾
Shea did a wonderful job caring for our cat Pickles! She played with her and gave her lots of love which I really appreciate. We got detailed report cards each visit and lots of sweet photos. She was very thorough and accommodative. Would highly recommend Shea!

OMG! Jodi was perfect. Always on time, easy to communicate with, super understanding. She did every recommendations that we told her for our cat and more than we expected. Our cat was always happy to see her. We 100% recommend Jodi. It was so reassuring to have her during our time away and have news every visit. We had an amazing experience.

Abby was absolutely amazing!! She took amazing care of our three cats while we were away and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was very communicative, followed all of our instructions, and provided detailed updates that gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious she genuinely cared about our cats, and they loved her too! We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

I highly recommend Camryn! She took wonderful care of my cats while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she looks after. She kept me updated throughout my trip, and I truly appreciated her professionalism, attention to detail, and the love she showed my pets. I will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Cameron did a few drop ins while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job at handing our crazy crew, including a puppy. I received tons of photos which eased my anxiety being away from them. She followed their routines and was always very responsive when messaging with me :)

Alexis was amazing! She kept me updated the entire time I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. The last sitter unfortunately left my house a mess, and Alexis had no issue helping clean up after her and making sure everything was taken care of while I was still out of town. I really appreciated her help and kindness. I definitely recommend her!

Dennis is a fantastic sitter. Very professional and super nice. I wanted to find a sitter that specialized in cats that way I felt more comfortable while on vacation. He made sure to send a text with pictures of Poptart to show how she was doing. If you have a cat that has medical needs he can also take care of that. Overall I'll definitely be using Dennis in the future and recommend to anyone with a cat to use his services.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lakewood Ranch on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,711 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lakewood Ranch. 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 Ranch. On Rover:

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.
