“Alexandra was so easy to work with! She is punctual, thorough and took very good care of my two cats. They warmed up to her right away. She sent regular updates with several pictures each time and they always looked happy during her visits. I’ll definitely try rebooking her for my next trip!”
“Anna is great with my super hyper pup! She plays with him and seems to really enjoy being around him. It’s hard to find a good dog sitter especially on rover but she’s the best!”
“Dee is outstanding, gentle and loves animals! My kitty cat, Biscuit, was very ill and I needed help with the medication for 5 days. Dee came to my house and helped save my little Biscuit maker! I could not have done it without her!”
“Katie was attentive to our two fur babies! She is our first official pet sitter and we are very pleased! We asked for small extras like getting the mail and watering a couple flower baskets during our vacation…she did that and more! She watered all plants during a heat spell and even brought back our garbage bins! Our normally shy kitty always came over to greet Katie upon her arrival. That made us feel very good! We are appreciative of Katie taking care of our two cats!”
“We cannot say enough good things about Kristen! She was dependable, a great communicator, administered medication flawlessly, and became a safe person for our cat while we were away. He absolutely loved her and we will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Amber did such a fantastic job with the dogs! I felt great knowing that our dogs would be in such great care! I appreciated the updates and pics she sent us with each visit. My dogs seemed quite happy and content while we were away. I will absolutely use her services again.”
“Christine was fantastic with our dog Ali. We were nervous as this was the first time we hired a drop in sitter while we were gone. Our dog is a little bit neurotic and elderly and we weren't quite sure how she was going to react. She loved Christine from the get-go. She loved all the walks, attention, love she was given in our absence. She was walked at least twice a day. Which really kept her anxiety and energy level down. She was so chill when we got home it was quite shocking. She was in constant contact with us with photos and updates and I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Tara was great with my two kittens! She made sure that they were comfortable and loved while I was away. I have one who bolts for the outside and she was extra cautious to make sure there was no escapees!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats and rabbits my whole life. I’ve always had them and have even done 4-H with my dog and rabbits and was an advisor when I got older. 4-H taught me all about pet care and dog training and obedience. I’ve recently changed jobs so I can be home nights, weekends and holidays! This will allow me more time for watching your fur babies. I enjoy spending my free time on walks and being outside. Since I do work during the week, they will be home during the day and unable to go out. But once I am home, and on weekends, they can go out as often as they would like. I don’t have any pets at this time so your fur baby will be the only one in the home. I keep things picked up and out of reach for safety. I believe in harnessing and leashing before going outside and making sure they are secured properly. I also will not feed your pet any human food or anything not approved by you.
About: My husband and I have owned dogs and cats our whole lives and I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My husband and I are both approved rover pet care takers so one or both of us may be the one to help! I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for years, and have never met one I dislike. I have two of my own and would love to take care of yours! I just graduated high school and am home most of the day. I go out for a couple hours at a time, but will be back in time to let the dogs out. I have a fenced in backyard with two golden at home that love to play with new friends. I have a crate at home if you want your dog to be crated as well.
“So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I've cared for a variety of pets: seniors, puppies, cats, kittens, high energy, shy or anxious. I’m patient, gentle, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s needs and routine. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep their comfort, safety, and happiness as my top priorities. I currently am a pharmacy technician full time but I typically have 3 days off weekly and time before and after work available for your pets needs. I’m someone who believes pets deserve the same comfort, safety, and love they get at home. When your pet stays with me, they’re not just being “watched”—they’re being cared for thoughtfully and responsibly.
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats for most of my life, whether my own or others'. I'm great at following specific instructions, giving updates, and getting along with all kinds of dogs and cats! I'm a student at miami university, so I'm close by most of the year. I have plenty of time to give to your pets in the fall and spring! I like spending time outside with pets to get them fresh smells, sticking to their routines, and plenty of cuddles if their alright with it!
“Kara did an amazing job taking care of my pup for a whole week while I was gone! Sent me daily updates and pictures. Definitely recommend her and will have her watch my pup again!!”
About: Hello! I have had a love for pets my whole life! Starting when I was 12 I began to check in on my neighbor's and family member's animals. I would walk them, feed them, stay the night with them, and love on them! As a recent high school graduate, I am free both weekdays and weekends for the summer and can put my full attention and energy into watching your pet! I always make sure that my animal's needs are taken care of first! I take them on nice long walks and play with them and give them as much attention as possible! I make sure to take them out every few hours depending on how big or small!
About: I’m a pet owner myself with a dog and two cats, so I’m used to managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels every day. I understand how important consistency is, and I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. I don’t overbook, so your pet will get real attention and a calm environment—not a chaotic, revolving-door situation. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, including multi-pet households, and I pay attention to the small things like behavior changes, feeding habits, and overall comfort. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or sitting, my goal is simple: make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well taken care of while you’re away. I work a full time job in-office, so I am available after 4:30pm Monday through Friday and have open availability Saturday and Sunday to help care for your pets! I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. Safety is always my top priority. I closely monitor pets during walks, playtime, and feeding, and I’m mindful of surroundings to prevent any risks. I follow all care instructions carefully, including medications, dietary restrictions, and activity levels. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space and ensure all areas are secure. I also make sure introductions with other animals (if applicable) are done slowly and safely. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel confident and at ease, knowing your pet is in responsible and caring hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Silver Lake
Tara was absolutely wonderful!! I booked her for a last minute trip and she was very quick to respond. We felt so at ease with her watching our pets! It is clear she loves animals and is very good with them! All the photos she shared showed a very happy puppy and very smitten kitties! Will absolutely be booking with her again!
Jennifer has taken care of our cat many times, and she is the only person I trust with my boy. I would never leave him with anyone but Jen — she has become like a member of our family. She is so generous with her time, and goes far above and beyond and keeps him fed, entertained, and content. Besides his excellent care, she is very conscientious and thoughtful about making sure all is good at our house, and is willing to help with other responsibilities while we are away. She’s the best!!
Katelynn is super nice! She was great with Bella, and Bella loves her too. You can tell she really loves pets. She’s super organized and prompt and knows this application well because she was able to help me reschedule a couple of times. I will definitely be using Katelynn in the future!
So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!
Matt was incredible. Both of our cats were instantly friends with him and would come running to the door every time he came to visit. We loved getting the daily pictures while we were missing them. Highly recommended and we'll definitely be using him again if we need to!
Riley is such a big help to me. I had never used this App before and was a bit nervous. She made it easy and accommodated a meet and greet. Riley has been up for every challenge. As one of my dogs was recovering from surgery and the other is a very energetic German shepherd puppy. She is always willing to help in anyway that she can with both of their needs. I am so happy to have found this App and Riley. I would and do definitely recommend her.
Audrey was very responsive during my vacation. Ohio expreienced a snow, cold and ice storm and I had concerns about her being able to travel to visit my two cats. She was very willing to drive to my house to take care of them, even on the worst day. I especially loved the check in photos and a few of her pirctures are really amazing photos. Audry also helped me with turning on faucets and helping with concerns with my pipes freezing. I would highly recommend her - and already have to my friends and family when they go out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Silver Lake on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,524 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Silver Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Silver Lake stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Silver Lake. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
