“Clara house sat and watch our labradoodle for 5 days and did a fantastic job! Walter was happy and healthy when we arrived home and the house was in excellent condition. Several of our dog-loving neighbors got to know Clara and really liked them. We highly recommend Clara and have absolutely no reservations in hiring them again! :-)”
“Jada took excellent care of my two dogs in my home! She was clearly very attentive of my pups, and sent lots of pictures. She was respectful, sweet, and came prepared to take plenty of notes at our meet and greet before her stay. She was also a very tidy house guest! Would absolutely book again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. As a biology student who hopes to become a veterinarian, I’m passionate about giving every pet the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I’m currently available most days and have a flexible schedule, so I can make time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and feeding. I’ll always communicate with you and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, keep them in a safe environment, and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I’ll also send updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind.

I have a part-time job & also do gig work as a stage hand & as a network technician. I have a lot of availability in between. I have 3 children. My daughter lives on her own & my two sons are still at home. They're 16 & 13 & also love animals. My youngest is homeschooled & might enjoy tagging along & helping. I nurture all of the needs that any animal has, including the necessities. I care about all of the pet owner's requests & give lots of love.
“Carlee took good care of our old man Gus while we were gone. She provided updates when necessary and left the house in great condition. We will definitely use Carlee again!”
“Jeffrey is wonderful! He is very attentive to my dogs. I think they may love him more than me now! Even my standoffish dog warmed up to him quickly. He sends pictures and updates daily, and even put my garbage out without being asked! I highly recommend Jeffrey for your pet sitting needs!”

“Katie was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our house and watched our Golden Retriever for 5 nights while we were on vacation, and he absolutely loved her. It was such a relief knowing he was happy, comfortable in his own home, and being well taken care of while we were away. Katie was trustworthy, caring, and did a great job with him. We came home to a happy dog and everything just as we left it. We would absolutely book Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to stay overnight and take great care of their dog!”
“Delaney is fantastic! She is responsible, communicative, kind and caring. She took the best care of our boys and kept us in the loop with pictures. We are very grateful to have found her. Thanks Delaney!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I’m currently a registered nurse. I love when the therapy animals come by, probably more than the patients do! I am mostly available on weekends and some days during the week! I am an RN so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m off on weekends and holidays! On days that I do work, I’m off usually around 5pm. I am able to spend as much time needed on drop-in days as your pet needs. I will not rush them to eat or go outside.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was in middle school. For four years, I assisted in end-of-life care for a senior dog along with being a farmhand for two horses. My previous job in Florida was at an animal shelter, and consisted of feeding, cleaning, and medicating up to 40 kittens/cats/dogs a day. I am available any time, any day of the week. I’m currently job searching for a position at a shelter, so in the meantime I would love to meet your animals and make friends! I live in an apartment with my partner and two kittens. I feed them twice a day, with a capsule of Proviable split between them. They are strictly indoor kitties, and I have given them both a flea bath.
About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a dedicated animal lover and an experienced veterinary technician who understands that your pets are family. Working in veterinary medicine has given me hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including seniors, puppies, kittens, and pets with medical needs. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or simply someone to give them extra love while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and behavior, and I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and handling unexpected situations calmly. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your furry family members with someone you can trust. I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! I can stop by before 8:00 am and after 3:00 pm on Saturday.

About: Hello I’m Jasmyn, I grew up with dogs all of my life and as I got older I would watch my friends and peers dogs. I’m familiar with older dogs and giving medications, nap times water breaks and outside time. I’m available any time of the week and a typical day would look like, walks, cuddles, play time and medication administration if needed. I am at the hospital 3 times out the week but my schedule is pretty flexible for whenever you need a dog walked. Morning and evenings and especially weekends work. I usually follow any rules you enforce but I usually do the usual, keep them on a leash and monitoring them to make sure they’re being safe.
About: I’ve cared for everything from Chihuahuas to English Mastiffs! We’ve trained them as puppies and cared for them to their last days. They are family. I’m currently working as a part time substitute in Lexington 1. I make my own schedule during the school year. I love teaching special education. I have a large fenced yard. We divided it up into two sides. We also have a huge dog house with air conditioning and beds.
“My dog is my world, and leaving her with someone new can be, quite frankly, terrifying. It is the only thing I dislike about traveling. But Paula is so obviously a dog mama that I felt wholly comfortable leaving Hannah in her care. She treated my home and my sweet girl with love and respect.”

Venetia is a great pet/house sitter! This is the second time she has taken care of my dog / house and she is reliable, responsible and responsive! She sends pictures and responds quickly to questions. She shows up on time and follows all the instructions . My dog is nervous with new people and Venetia’s approach with her had Mabel connect with her quickly! I highly recommend and will use her services again in the future!
Mariah was on time and kept us informed each day with how my pets were doing along with photos. It was obvious from the photos that my cats and dog were very comfortable and happy to be around her. If you are looking for someone who is dependable, cares about your animals, and can be trusted, then she would be a good fit for your pets as well.

The average cost of House Sitting in Arcadia Lakes is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $42 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arcadia Lakes walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arcadia Lakes maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Arcadia Lakes choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
