“Kylie has been an outstanding sitter- I have felt so relaxed knowing my babies are cared for. She’s provided regular updates and photos so I know how things are going. I can tell from the images my pets are relaxed and enjoying her!”
“Andrew is great! He really cared about our dog and frequently updated us on how the dog was doing. He also left the house spotless. We will definitely hire him again.”
About: Hi, I’m DeAndre—a professional, dependable dog walker and sitter serving Tallahassee. I specialize in providing structured, attentive care for pet owners who value consistency, communication, and peace of mind. I maintain a full-time professional schedule (8–5), which allows me to focus on high-quality early morning, evening, and weekend care—ideal for busy professionals who need reliable support outside standard hours. I was a dedicated dog owner for many years. My dog Dutchess was with me from 2011 until she passed in October 2023. She was exceptionally patient, kind, and loving. While I’m not ready to own another dog just yet, caring for other pets genuinely fulfills that same sense of purpose and connection. I trained Dutchess from 6 months old, giving me a strong foundation in consistency, behavior awareness, and positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable reinforcing routines and helping dogs build good habits in a calm, structured environment. What’s my schedule like: • Professional, punctual, and highly reliable • Clear, consistent communication with photo updates • Calm, patient approach tailored to each dog’s personality • Focus on safety, structure, and trust Services: • Dog walking (morning & evening availability) • Drop-in visits (feeding, enrichment, check-ins) • Weekend and overnight sitting My goal is simple: to provide a safe, dependable experience for your pet—and complete peace of mind for you. I’d be glad to connect and care for your dog as if they were my own. I care for pets with a balance of structure, patience, and genuine attention. I make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable by sticking to their routine, following instructions closely, and paying attention to their individual personality and needs. I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and creating a calm environment so pets can relax and be themselves. I’m also very observant—I pay attention to behavior, energy levels, and any changes that might need attention. Whether it’s making sure they get enough exercise, giving them affection, or simply being present, I treat every pet with the same level of care and respect as if they were my own. My goal is always to make both the pet and the owner feel at ease.
About: I am observant and attentive to animal needs. I’ve worked as a barn hand for 40 horses, volunteered with wildlife rescue, and completed pet & equine first aid training. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or extra patience, I’ll provide reliable, loving care and plenty of attention. I’ve recently relocated to Tallahassee from Oregon. I plan to attend school part-time in the fall 2026. I’m not seeking other employment at this time. My willingness & availability are open and my car is dependable! I’m willing to check in on your pet or stay the night. Either way I can be trusted to treat your home respectfully and follow routine care for your pet.
“Sierra did a very good job of taking care of our pets. Bubba doesn't take to everyone but he seemed to like Sierra and Misha snuggle with her. Good job Sierra and we will use you again.”
About: Hello! I am a teacher looking to love on animals and make some money to help pay for my wedding! I have cared for many kinds of animals/homes over the years and pride myself on building close bonds with dogs and owners alike! As a pet parent to 2 dogs and 3 cats, I know how important it is to be able to leave your fur babies with someone you can trust. My former teachers, neighbors, and family members have all entrusted me with their dearest pets with satisfaction guaranteed! I am a teacher with summers off so pet care is currently my full time job! I can arrange my schedule to include twice or three times daily care minimum. I am also experienced in working with medically fragile dogs and cats who may need extra care! I make sure that the animals not only have their basic needs met, but also give them plenty attention and love…if they want it! I also respect that each animal is unique and may want solace over snuggles. I take the time to bond with every animal and figure out what they actually need.
About: I have been pet sitting 20 years. Cats and dogs, all sizes. Prefer in your home. I stay overnight and I take excellent care of your home and pets. I currently work part time and have the time to devote to caring and playing with your pets. When I stay at your home where they are completely comfortable I will spend mornings and evenings with them. As a Professional Pet Sitter, I follow your directions as far as your written instructions, feeding, crating, medicines, walking, etc. I do provide playful exercise and cuddles.
About: My background as a Pre-Vet student with 400+ hours of volunteer experience in shelters and therapeutic programs helps me daily in this field . I'm calm and confident with all temperaments—skilled in easing anxious pets, entertaining energetic pups, and providing gentle care for animals of all . Animal care is my passion, and I display that dedicated, high-level attention to every pet I sit. As a college student, my schedule includes flexible breaks between classes and labs, making it easy to fit in regular drop ins, walks, and playtime. Evenings and weekends are more likely to be open for extended care and house sitting. When caring for pets in your home, safety and respect are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules while keeping your space clean and secure, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.
“Kate was absolutely amazing! We found her as a last minute sitter and could not have been happier or felt more comfortable leaving our pup with her. If you are ever in need of a sitter who cares deeply about your animal, has great communication, and is trustworthy, I highly recommend booking with Kate! And our dog was obsessed with her right from the start which doesn’t always happen! 5/5 stars for sure!”
“This is the first time I've used Rover for pet sitting. Kristina was available for the week I needed so I did a meet and greet first and my dogs fell in love with her. She stayed and cared for my babies as if I was still here and sent pictures everyday so I could see their happy faces. Kristina is easy to communicate with and took good care of the dogs and my house. I would highly recommend her. I definitely will call on Kristina again.”
“Overall, we had a positive experience with Sofia and Archie and Miles appeared to be well cared for while we were away. Everything seemed to go smoothly and we returned home to two happy dogs. My only suggestion would be more frequent communication and photos during the stay. As a pet parent, it's always reassuring to receive regular updates and see how the dogs are doing while you're away. Regardless, we appreciated the care provided and would definitely book again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 360 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calvary. 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 Calvary 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 Calvary 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Calvary 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.
