“Corban did an amazing job taking care of Reggie! He made sure Reggie got a walk, gave him lots of belly rubs, and treated him like he was his own. I felt completely at ease trusting Corban with Reggie's care, and that peace of mind meant so much. I would absolutely book with Corban again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter.”
About: I have owned pets all my life and always hated boarding my pets due to the stress they endure thats why I offer my services. I also offer care for cats and small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs ect. As of right now I am available anytime. Ive worked at vet clinics and volunteered at shelters. Ive taken care of senior dogs, hyper and young dogs. Also have administered meds to animals. Recently I have watched farm animals such as chickens,goats,horses and a Llama. I currently have 4 dogs of my own and 2 of my moms dogs. We have 1 cat. Ive had several dogs and 2 other cats in the past as well as 2 rabbits. I also have been petsitting since 2012 and have refrences. I do walks with dogs. I also offer nail trims, brush outs ECT. If you would like to know more please message me and I would be happy to answer. I do also have a Facebook page Howling Hounds Pet Care. Unfortunately my prices have increased due to Rover taking 20%. Please note i am willing to work with people on pricing if contacted PRIOR to services. I am currently doing this as my full time employment as I go to school for pet grooming in the spring. I am an owner to 4 crazy beagles so I know what it's like to make sure pets have the stress free environment when we are gone. All pet care is done in the client's home. This creates more calmness within the pet and less stress. They can be where they are used to.

“Carolyn was absolutely amazing with Sissy! She took the time to make sure Sissy was well cared for, making sure she was fed, let out for potty breaks, and given plenty of outdoor time to play and explore. I really appreciated how patient and attentive she was, ensuring Sissy had every opportunity to go potty and get the exercise and attention she needed. Carolyn was also very communicative throughout the entire process, which gave me great peace of mind. She was able to accommodate us on short notice, and her flexibility and reliability were truly appreciated. I could tell she genuinely cared about Sissy's well-being and happiness. I would highly recommend Carolyn to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Sissy!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for a little over 6 years now . I first started with dog walking and realized how much I enjoy being with animals and taking care of them. I’ve watched dogs and cat for family and friends. I’d love to start caring for animals more so I can eventually turn it into a full time job. I’m currently working a full time job. I get off of work around 3:30 or 4:00 and I go in at 8:00 AM. I will mostly be watching animals after I get done with my job. I would mostly be watching animals in the clients home as my home is not set up to have pets in it as of right now.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Winona Lake on Rover is $21.09 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 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 August 2026, there are 143 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Winona 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.
