“I had Carla come let my dog out when I had a busy day. It happened to be raining so she took him on a walk and for a car ride. She spent much more time with him than I had anticipated and he loved it! It was great to know that I could go to work and he was being well taken care of and wasn't stuck in his kennel all day!”
“Declan clearly dedicates his time making sure our dog is mentally and physically engaged during his visits, which is not an easy feat with an energized 6mo lab! We are very grateful to have an enthusiastic and experienced handler like Declan around.”
“Melissa and Will were great with working with our ever changing schedule. They were awesome with our dogs that seem to forget they had just seen them every single time they’d drop in lol.”
“Rianna is so sweet with my pups. While they are very low maintenance, she goes out of her way to be super sweet and patient with them. 2 big thumbs up and I will continue to book her for my daily dog needs.”
“Ayla was a great sitter for my dog and senior cat for a long weekend. She came for an interview before the booking where she was pleasant to talk to and my dog warmed up to her a bit. During the booking, she took great care of our babies. Her communication was excellent. Will definitely book again.”
About: I have been working in the pet industy for 10 years and I am pet CPR certified. I have taken care care of pups of all ages, all different kinds of animals, and have had many pets of my own. I currently work at a restaurant so may be gone here and there. My pups are home for you friend to have some company while I'm gone! I do not have a fenced in yard, but can leash walk anywhere. Pets can free roam inside my house, otherwise I can care for pets in their own space.
“Linnea followed through on all we requested. Our cat seemed to love Linnea's visits, and he was a happy cat when we got home. Having Linnea care for our cat was so much better than have a neighbor come in to check on our cat. We could tell Linnea loves cats.”
About: I’m an 18-year-old pet sitter who has grown up caring for animals my entire life, including fish, hamsters, cats, and dogs. I’ve independently managed feeding, cleaning, exercise, and overall care for my pets while balancing school, athletics, and work. Through this experience, I’ve learned to be responsible, attentive, and patient, always making sure animals are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dog during the day or throughout the night, watched my grandparents cats and dogs by stopping by periodically, and brought my friends dog to the groomer and vet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’ve grown up caring for animals my whole life. On a daily basis, I make time for feeding, fresh water, cleaning, playtime, and monitoring each pet’s behavior and health. Weekly routines include deeper cleaning, grooming, and making sure pets get consistent exercise and attention. I manage this around school and athletics. I care for pets by following a consistent routine that meets each animal’s individual needs, whether in my home or a client’s home. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I carefully follow any instructions provided, including dietary needs, medication, or specific routines, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. This is just the same as I do at home everyday for my own pets!😊
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I've cared for my family's dog whenever they're out of town. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, and as a nursing student with healthcare experience and have previously worked in the criminal justice field for many years, I take responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving care, regular updates, and treat your pets like they're part of my own family. Caring for pets fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently in nursing school and only work one day a week, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability for drop-in visits and dog walks. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand the importance of keeping them on their normal routine. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding instructions, provide fresh water, walks or playtime, clean up after them, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: Whether it's time for a pet session or for the zoomies, I love engaging with and getting to know dogs of all types and personalities. I grew up with 2 dogs, a Labradoodle and Beagle for whom I was the primary caretaker. I found great joy in caring for my dogs who had very different personalities, and I learned a lot about how to handle a multi-pet home. I have continued to grow my knowledge in multi-pet home dynamics with the combination of my household and my partner's. We now live happily with 1 cat and 2 dogs. I'm excited to lend a helping hand to other households who are navigating routine with their fur babies. I’m primarily available during the day Tues-Fri as I set my own work schedule. My animals at home are well trained and flexible, so coming to care for yours is a welcome addition to my daily pet care routine. I can occasionally make Mondays and weekends work as needed. I respect every pet owner as the expert on their own pet. I am happy to follow any and all instructions to give your animal the best pet care I can and provide a sense of normalcy and routine for your beloved pets.
“Delaney has been so wonderful to work with! She is very reliable, trustworthy, and flexible! She does a great job communicating with us and she is so good to our dogs! I would highly recommend!”
About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life, I can't get enough ❤️ I have been a foster mom for 3 different rescues over the past 10 years, helping many different dogs prepare for their adoptions and transition to their new homes. I have experience with different ages, health conditions and personalities. I am very observant and patient, I err on the side of caution as you can never be too safe! Dog sitting is my full time job, so I am able to tend to your pup(s) consistently and provide a clean and safe home environment. Stays are limited to just 4 few spots, in my quiet, spacious home. Pups have unlimited access to my huge fenced in yard, with plenty of new smells and places to explore! I do not crate them unless it is necessary for meal times, rest, etc. They will be treated like family while they are here, with social time as well as one on one attention. If your pup matches with the group, they will have lots of play time to burn off their excess energy too! I will also send pictures and videos, as much as your heart desires, so you can be at ease that your dog is happy while you are away! My business is also privately insured.
“Brianna took amazing care of my 3 kitties. They absolutely loved her. Her communication was excellent and my cats barely noticed I was even gone. She did the cutest arts and crafts projects with them, brushed them, took out the trash and left my place spotless (other than the amazing arts and crafts I came home to.) All of my instructions were followed perfectly, she never left any trash behind, and brought so many treats and toys for the kitties! She came to meet the kitties ahead of time and bonded with them so fast. I would trust Brianna with my cats in a heartbeat and I don’t even trust my parents with them.”
“Sherry did a wonderful job with our two senior cats. We love our cats dearly, but they are troubled and not the friendliest cats around. Sherry handled them beautifully. She spent time with them, she was kind to them, and she even got them to warm to her, which isn’t an easy task. Sherry was responsive to me when I messaged her and came through with daily reports of our cats, as promised. I have had many pet sitters NOT do that, even when I have asked for this. When we came home from our trip, the cats were content. Sherry did everything we asked and a great job too. It’s nice to know that you have a trustworthy person in your house, caring for your pets, while you are away. Overall, I highly recommend Sherry.”
About: Hi there! I would love to help you take care of your puppers. I have two cats of my own, and am just not home consistently enough to have a dog of my own. I have fostered several special needs dogs over the years, and have assisted at a few rescues in the care of their adoptable dogs. I have helped at the shelters in my area, but am looking for a way to spend some more consistent time with dogs. I work in a retail environment and every time a dog is in our store, my associates are paging me telling me so that I can come say hi. Thank you for considering me, I am happy to answer any questions you may have!
“Kaya is very attentive and took great care of my three sassy cats. She responds very quickly and is always available for your needs. Kayla is a great photographer and sent terrific photos and videos that made me feel so at ease on my vacation, knowing that my girls are well cared for.”
About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to independent cats. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, ensuring they get the proper attention and care they need- as long as instructions can be provided to maintain routines and medical needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing gentle care, companionship, and a safe environment. Wether it’s keeping up with a puppy, a shy cat, or providing extra comfort for an aging pet, I would be honored to be trusted with your furry family members. I currently am a full time Software Engineering student at Loyola University! Currently, most of my coursework is online other than Tuesdays and Thursdays. This limits my availability on those days for additional pet care. My flexible online schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week, ensuring they receive attention and care they deserve. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, playtimes, and check-ins, making pet care a natural and enjoyable part of my routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment for all animals in my care. My home has a large yard with fencing where I can comfortably walk one’s pet outdoors while remaining safe. I have two cats and one dog in the home, so I do carefully manage introductions and limit interactions if needed to ensure all pets are comfortable. For dogs, I can crate or pen if needed, providing them with personal space, or allow them to roam safely on a leash outside while ensuring they are well cared for inside. For cats, I prioritize an stress-free environment, providing personal space and ensuring quiet areas to retreat to. I understand feline body languages and can understand shy, playful, or independent cats to ensure their comfort.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, pigs, chickens, and cats. My whole entire life I have had to take care of special needs animals as well. During the week, I am available anytime during the week I’m available all day long! I am available on the weekends as well! Let me be your safe space for animal sitting! I will be able to provide to your animals all day long on the weekends, afternoons on the weekdays, ensuring that they are fed watered taken out walked and cleaned if need be

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Paddock Lake
We couldn’t be happier to have found Sarah to take care of our dog and cat. They instantly felt comfortable with her during our meet and greet, and so did we. Our Great Dane who is very slow to accept new people took to her right away. Sarah is perceptive and understands animal behavior. She took excellent care of our pets, doing everything as we would. She spent time with them, giving them lots of love, and pampered them with their favorite treats. She kept us informed with summaries of each of their visits along with adorable pictures of them each time. She made our getaway stress-free and definitely went above expectations. We highly recommend Sarah!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,338 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Paddock Lake. 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.

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.
