Jo was amazing with Little Bear! Communication was steady and on point! Little Bear opened up to him immediately and I see from all of the amazing videos and photos that Jo sent me on a daily basis with him and Little Bear that they hit it off really well! Down from play, to pampering, to feeding , to cleaning up after and entertaining Little Bear Jo did an amazing job and I will definitely be utilizing his services again real soon! You can tell that Jo really enjoys what he does and he is trustworthy which is a PLUS! Little Bear really enjoyed Jo, which is MOST important in my book! Jo thank you so much once again for your service for Little Bear! We found a 5-Star Sitter! You won't be disappointed with Jo!

Colleen is fantastic!!! I have three cats and one dog, two of which are older and one is reluctant to eat and requires medication. I was super nervous to leave them especially since my older cat will just decide not to eat if any tiny thing changes in his routine. Colleen is an absolute star. She got right in and dealt with all of my pets’ individual needs as well as MY anxieties, lists and stickynotes. I got multiple texts with every single visit and she responded to MY texts immediately. I could tell with every photo or text she sent that my furbabes were getting excellent care. I definitely look forward to trusting Colleen with my furchildren again! ?

Stephanie was my first pet sitter with Rover, and I was really apprehensive about leaving my cat for 2 weeks. Stephanie not only went above and beyond to reassure me, but she was flexible with the booking and checking on my house while I was away. She provided detailed updates with plenty of pictures, followed all instructions, and exceeded expectations. My normally skittish cat took to Stephanie immediately, which I know had to do with Stephanie, because she didn’t come out for anyone else that stopped by the house. I had a wonderful experience, and would definitely request Stephanie for any future pet sitting needs.

She arrived on time each day and shared plenty of updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Mary and would absolutely use her again.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve had my own dog, Oreo, for the past 5 years, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. In addition to my own dog, I’ve also helped take care of friends’ and family members’ pets, giving me experience with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love being around animals. I make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and affection they deserve, whether that’s keeping up with their normal routine, giving them extra playtime, or just making them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m available Monday through Saturday after 4 PM, with full availability on Sundays. I also have some days off, which gives me additional daytime availability during both weekdays and weekends. My schedule is consistent and flexible, and I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extra attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I have a safe, loving home and experience caring for my own dog, Oreo, along with friends’ and family’s pets. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care while they’re with me.

Christa was a life saver. I can never fully enjoy my vacations because I think about my little guys alone in a boarding facility. I have a special needs dachshund named Maui. She's paralyzed in her back end and needs her bladder manually expressed. Very few boarding facilities will accept her. Christa came to our home three times per day, loved on, played with and cared for our three dogs and our parrot. I've never come home from a trip and found my dogs so happy and relaxed and clean. Christa went above and beyond.

Elise arrived right on time and gave lots of attention to my two dogs, who were both depressed because I left them. Usually they won’t eat or go out, they just sulk, but she cuddled them and managed to get them to eat and go out. They were ecstatic when we got home and we found no messes. Thank you, Elise!

Toni was very responsive in sending pictures and updating us on Maverick. She visited our place once in the morning and once in the evening. Our cat loved her visits. She spent more time than we carved out because she felt that our cat would appreciate it. We will definitely hire her again to take care of Maverick. Thank you so much!!

Carmen is phenomenal! She is communicative, timely, and thoughtful during her visits. One of my kitties is very shy and hides whenever new people arrive. She was patient and sat with her until she came out for some love. Another one of the cats needed medicine for anxiety and she was able to give him his meds without any issue. Our dog loves her as well and is always so excited to see her. I’m so glad we found Carmen!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lynford on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,422 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Lynford. 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 Lynford. On Rover:

  • 91% 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 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.
