“Kirk did a super job watching my dogs on Friday and Saturday. He walked them, took them on a golf cart ride and gave them loads of attention. He was flexible with my schedule and came over early both nights. We will definitely use him again for dog care.”
“I was very lucky to find Ginny! Chloe doesn't warm up to strangers quickly. She immediately went to Ginny. I feel she was very well cared for and loved. Gave me peace of mind to enjoy my week long cruise where I was out of touch. Couldn't have been better. I look forward to booking Ginny again.”
“This was the first time having a sitter for our rescue dog Charlie and Stacy was great with him. Charlie had tons of walks and was lovingly cared for by Stacy. After our meet and greet, I felt very comfortable having Stacy stay for our 4 days away. Our neighbors were all telling us how Charlie was spoiled with all his walks lol. Stacy is a very pleasant person and we would use her services again for sure.”
About: Hello, my name is Isa! I love animals and would love to take care of your sweet fur baby like my own. I have experience with family's and friend's dogs, both big and small! I've had my own beagle-baby, Rosie, since I was 12 years old. I'm available at any time of the week after 8:00AM (Sundays after 12:00PM), so I have tons of time to spoil and play with your precious pups! I will give your pets the best time I can while you're away from home, whether that be for 30 minutes for a fun walk or overnight in the place they feel safest in. I'll keep them as comfortable and happy as I can while I'm with them!
“Avery is a blessing. He took excellent care of our Buddy. Sent me pictures every morning and afternoon and sometimes in between. It was such a comfort to know he was doing great. Avery stayed at our home and it was spotless when we got home. He even took the sheets off the bed and washed them. By far Avery is the best sitter we have ever had. We will definitely be booking with him in the future. I highly recommend Avery.”
About: Growing up, I always had a special place in my heart for animals, especially dogs. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with both large and small breeds including Akitas, Huskies, Boxers, Chihuahuas, and Pomsky mixes. As I got older and moved out on my own, I owned a pitbull who I loved wholeheartedly and sadly lost to cancer in 2024. Since then, I’ve adopted two beautiful American Staffordshire Terriers from the same litter who have filled my home with love again. I truly treat every dog like family. They are welcome on the couches, in the bed, and even in the pool if approved by you! I have a fenced in backyard for safe playtime and lots of room for love, cuddles, and attention. I’m also great with teaching basic commands, keeping routines consistent, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your home with the same care and respect as my own, and you may even come home to a cleaner house than you left! I genuinely love bringing happiness, comfort, and peace of mind to people and their pets. I recently moved to Florida from Buffalo and decided to start pet sitting to help fill my free time doing something that truly makes me happy. As much as I hope to help your dog feel loved and cared for, they help my heart just as much too. I look forward to meeting you and your special pup! I currently have open availability Monday through Sunday, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, love, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending my free time around animals, so your pup will never feel ignored or lonely while in my care. I am very flexible with schedules and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a unfenced backyard, but a lot of yard, lots of walking trails and sidewalks, a loving home environment, and experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities as my previous pitbull was very reactive & didn’t get along with other dogs if you have a reactive dog I completely understand! I always follow routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions provided to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.
About: My lifelong love for animals translates into high-quality care for your pet. Since childhood, I have managed everything from daily feeding and walking schedules to specialized grooming and medication administration. Neighbors and friends frequently lean on me for their pet care needs because I am detail-oriented, highly communicative, and dedicated to keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. I work as a dog groomer, I have experience working with large and small breeds and can even offer a professional bath and nail trimming/ grinding for an extra cost. I currently am in school for the semester, and work as a part time professional let bather and groomer in training! Im usually only away for a few hours in days I work/school depends on the day! Safety and trust are my top priorities. Whenever I care for pets in a client's home, I strictly follow their established house rules, security measures, and specific routines. I ensure doors are securely locked, gates are latched during outdoor time, and potential hazards are kept well out of reach. I also look out for signs of stress, maintain a calm environment, and provide regular photo updates so owners have complete peace of mind.

About: I have owned dogs for years but currently don’t due to lots of travel. I would love to host your fur babies when I am in town! I am gone for work from 6am until around 330pm Monday through Friday but can provide walks, snuggles and play time before and after work. I live in a very safe community that is dog friendly. Dogs will be walked on leash as there is no fenced in yard space.I do live in a second story condo so your pup needs to be able to do stairs or be small enough for me to carry.
About: Growing up, I've always had a deep love for dogs. I cared for two of my own for a total of 15 years, and that passion inspired me to study dog obedience training. Now, freshly graduated, I'm excited to bring my knowledg and experience into the field. I'm committed to providing devoted, compassionate care to every dog I meet. I currently work 36 hours a week, and I'm happily available to help out on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. If you need anything during those times feel free to reach out-I'd love to hear from you! I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and adapting to whatever they need to feel comfortable and happy. I'm familiar with all the essentials-meals, rest, playtime, and keeping things clean-and I'm always ready to adjust to new routines or environments. I'm also happy to reinforce any training your dog has, so they feel supported and understood every step of the way.
“We are so happy to have found Diane! We were very comfortable trusting her with our doggies care. She not only took great care of our dogs but also our place. We appreciate the frequent updates and pictures she sent. We highly recommend Diane”
About: Hello Pet Parents, my name is Micah and it’s a pleasure. I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies for years. From neighbor’s pets to strangers pets I’ve done it all. I also have house trained a lot of pets from all different shapes and sizes. You can call me the handyman of pets and I’ll treat your pet like it was my own. I’m currently working from home but it’s not a micromanaging type of job. It’s more like as long as all tasks are done by the end of the week you’re good. So that being said I have all the time to care for your pets and make sure they get play time and everything that is needed. I have two pets myself so I know what it means to have and give that quality time with your pets because pets have feelings too. I also train dogs. I have two dogs. One is an Australian Shepherd and a puppy German shepherd. I take them out to exercise daily and can easily crate them if you want your pets separated from them. They both are fully vaccinated also and such sweethearts.
About: As an athlete with a lifelong love for animals, I've grown up around large dogs and specialize in providing energetic, fun-filled care for every pup. As a former college athlete, dog walking keeps me active while allowing me to stay engaged with animals, helping others by providing reliable, energetic care when needed. i would prefer to care for the pets not in my home, because of my dogs.But i would treat any house with respect and care.

The average cost of House Sitting in Bunnell is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Bunnell 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 Bunnell 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 Bunnell 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bunnell. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
