“Mykaela has been wonderful! We can trust that she will take good care of our puppy during her visits. She sends us photo updates and our dog always looks so happy and like she is having fun. We appreciate her helping us! Would definitely recommend!”
“After a meet and greet with Tasha, we knew our kitties would be in good hands. We went on a short trip and had Tasha take care of our two kitties and they were definitely well loved. She left a thorough note and kept me up to date everything I need to know about my fur babies. We will be reaching out to Tasha in the future to watch our cats!”
“Rebekah was so amazing!!! Our boy can be quite shy in the beginning but Rebekah was patient, kind, and he had a great time with her. I will absolutely be using her services again. Thank you so much!”
“What a beautiful wonderful pet setter my 8 month old German Shepherd Gracie absolutely loved her. And so do I!!!! she not only showed much love and attention. She also did some training with her She is so knowledged about dogs! Can't wait to have her again!!”
About: 🐶I’ve taken care of our Family Rottweiler, Mini Schanuzer and Elderly Shitzu mix. I’ve also had my Chihuahua since I was a teenager. With that being said, I am very experienced with dogs of any size from pup to senior 🐕🦺. I work from home which makes it easier to spend time with the pups as well as keep a close eye on them. This is extremely convenient if your fur baby has separation anxiety! I have a fenced in yard and two Fur babies to keep your Pup company during their stay! I’ve also got a large crate if needed.
“Matthew was absolutely exceptional! From the very beginning, he was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. He cared for my fur babies as if they were his own, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. He followed every instruction explicitly and paid close attention to all the details I provided. It was clear he genuinely loves animals and takes his responsibility seriously. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything exactly as I left it. I would highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and truly wonderful dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“We have been looking for the perfect person to sit with Kato. And we found her. Zoey was so good with him. He went to her as soon as he saw her. Very rare for him. He has anxieties. We have been looking since we retired to be able to travel more. Shame it is only a 5 star rating.”
“Keerie always provides exceptional communication and care for our two kitties. She even went out of her way to bring a package inside for me. I’ll continue to trust her to care for my babies for as long as she continues to be a Rover sitter.”
“Taylor was fantastic with our puppy. I was so worried to leave her home alone while I was at work due to her separation anxiety, but Taylor took great care of her. She was on time every day and very communicative which helped put my mind at ease. We will definitely use her again.”

“Really appreciate Pat helping us on short notice! She was fantastic with our rather timid and shy cat. Pat allowed our Bella to set the pace for interaction. Very attentive and took such good care with her. She even brought in an unexpected package. Very warm and caring lady. Will definitely use her services again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Portage Lakes
Willow did amazing with my baby Fluffy. He’s extremely shy and skittish, but he was just recently diagnosed with diabetes and I needed someone familiar with the injection process to stop by and give him his shots while my dad watched the other animals. Fluffy certainly did not make it easy on her by hiding and running the entire time, but she was still able to ensure he got his injections as needed and sent photos of him and the other babies while I was away. I would definitely hire her again if I ever need another pet sitter!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Portage Lakes on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
