“Sarah is awesome! She was great at communicating, providing daily updates and pics of our pups. I could tell from the pics that the dogs took a quick liking to her and when we got home they were happy and relaxed. Couldn’t ask for anything more! She’ll definitely be our go-to dog sitter from now on!”
“Second time booking with Samantha. Great experience! Keeps the house tidy and takes great care of my dogs. She allows me to be stress free while out of town. I would highly recommend and plan to book again in the future!”
“Alyssa is truly amazing. She responds nearly immediately every time, she sends updates and photos. I felt so comfortable with her at my home from the start, and my dogs got the best care. I am so blessed to have been connected with Alyssa. She noticed the smallest nick on my male bulldog (he is crazy and bangs his body up on everything, she’s at zero fault) she immediately sent me photos and was concerned as if it was her own. She went above and beyond, cleaning her room, areas she was in and her bathroom. I am 100% booking again!!”
About: As a proud resident of Hernando Beach, I bring 20 years of experience as a devoted dog mom and recently a loving cat mom. I cherish every moment with my pets, whom I affectionately refer to as my “kiddos.” From walks to playful afternoons and cozy cuddles at night, I ensure they are spoiled with love, attention and treats! I also enjoy taking them on fun trips where they can swim and splash in the ocean. With a keen sense for noticing when something is off, I am dedicated to providing immediate care and comfort for all sizes and ages, including seniors who may need a little extra attention. Let me help care for your furry family members while you work or play! I work from home in Hernando Beach, and have plenty of breaks in the day to help out neighborly pets in the area if needed. I am happy to drop in and feed pets, change litter, clean up after both dogs and cats, give any meds that may be needed and let them out to use the restroom if needed and run around for a moment.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and have had pets of my own throughout adulthood. Over the years, I’ve also cared for dogs and cats for friends and family when they needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, potty breaks, litter box care, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pets, so I’ll follow your instructions and their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I currently work PRN as a nurse, which allows me to make my own schedule and gives me the flexibility to coordinate my availability around the needs of the pets in my care. I can plan ahead for walks, drop-ins, feeding times, and house sitting, and I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine and schedule. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are very important to me. I will care for your pets in your home with the same attention and care I give my own. I’ll closely follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’m respectful of both your pets and your home, and I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are doing well.
“Kelli is just the sweetest person and excellent with animals. Our dog really loves her, seemingly more than some of our previous sitters. She reaches out with pictures and updates. She is respectful with our house and leaves it very nice. She’s genuinely just a really kind and generous person. She’s my favorite go to sitter!”
About: I grew up around dogs. My neighbors and family rely on me to watch and take care of their dogs when they are away. I love to cuddle with puppies I work part time as a dog bather currently but i am usually available most of the time as long as you let me know ahead of time. i have three cats and a dog that are friendly and will keep your fur baby company. My cats love to play and make new friends.
“Our dogs loved Osvaldo from the moment they met him! He kept the house spotless, sent the best photo updates, and took incredible care of our two pups. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and a clean home. We cannot wait to book him again!”
“The zoo was well taken care of and loved. Thank you so much for cuddling with the old pup and playing with 3 cats! I never felt anxious about our pets or house while we were gone, thank you so much.”
“Sherry is amazing! She stayed at our house for a week caring for our pups. We came home to 4 very happy pups and our house was emaculate. She definitely went above and beyond. She even did the linens and the windows! We will certainly use her again!”
“Bryanna is fantastic! We’ve never felt so relieved in knowing that we have a person we can fully trust and rely on with our pups. We have a senior dog and a puppy. That combo can be a bit overwhelming, but Bryanna was able to handle them effortlessly. We know we will be reaching out to her again in the future!”
About: I’ve always been around dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of different sizes and personalities. I understand how important routines, safety, and trust are, and I take pride in making sure every dog feels comfortable and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and love building trust with both pets and their owners. I’m currently going to school, so I’m available after school hours to take care of your precious pets. . I do my best to be punctual and reliable, and I’m happy to communicate clearly if any schedule adjustments are needed. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and I always follow owner instructions carefully. I use safe leash practices during walks, remain attentive at all times, and make sure your dog feels calm and secure. I respect your home and maintain a clean, positive environment during every visit.
“Sharon was amazing! I’ve never left my dogs with a sitter before and she put me at ease immediately. I was nervous about leaving my 16 year old dog and she sent updates and pics to help me feel better. She took care of my fur babies and my house and I would definitely recommend her.”
“I love my dogs more than anything and Jasmine made me so comfortable and happy that my 4 dogs were taken care of. She followed through on exactly what we asked, even as far as giving my dogs her blanket when they became obsessed with it (despite having 20 others lol). She obviously ADORES dogs and understood my anxiety over leaving them. She was in constant communication with the cutest pictures. Will definitely reach out to her again when we need a sitter.”
“Kassandra takes the best care of our Princess We feel so lucky to have found her. We trust her fully to care for our fur girl when we travel. Thanks so much Kassandra!”
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.
About: Hi! I’m Nicole. 🐾 While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to pet care! I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and started pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors while growing up. Before opening my own successful pet care business in Miami, I worked in professional boarding and daycare facilities, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. It was there that I learned bathing, deshedding, nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and coat care. More importantly, it inspired me to create something different—a true home away from home where pets receive personalized, one-on-one care instead of spending their stay in a kennel. Over the years, I built a successful pet care business in Miami, earning the trust of hundreds of repeat clients, families, professionals, and even celebrity clients. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, so your pup will receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, supervision, and companionship in a safe, cage-free home. I treat every pet like family and love sending daily photo and video updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved. As a little thank-you, every boarding currently includes a complimentary spa refresh before pickup with a bath (if needed), brushing, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, a nail trim (if tolerated), and a fresh spritz. I can’t wait to welcome your pup into our family! ❤️ I’m home full-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide consistent attention, frequent potty breaks, playtime, grooming, and loving personalized care every day 🤍 I provide a safe, clean, loving home environment with routine care, playtime, supervision, and attention tailored to each pet’s needs and comfort to give the best experience
“Honestly so peaceful to not worry about my dogs! Everything went so smooth and Alyssa was keeping me in the loop often! Definitely recommend if you are looking for someone reliable and truth worthy.”
About: I've cared for dogs and cats for families for several years, including overnight stays and in-home care. I've also grown up around both dogs and cats, so I'm comfortable with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medications, and following detailed care instructions. I know being away from your pet can be stressful, so I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being well cared for while you're away. 🗓️ AVAILABILITY: Mon–Thurs after 5 PM • Fri–Sun open availability I’m available for evening care Monday–Thursday and have flexible/all-day availability Friday–Sunday! 🐾 I’m currently working full time at a podiatry office as a medical assistant so my weekends and evenings are usually free and I have plenty of time to care for other pets. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I keep their normal schedule as closely as possible, including meals, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of attention. For overnight stays, I make sure pets have company and feel comfortable in their own home while their family is away. I’m also respectful of the home and keep everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, I want each pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aripeka on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,969 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aripeka. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Aripeka 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 Aripeka 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 Aripeka 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aripeka. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
