“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hailey did an amazing job caring for our home and pets while we were away for four days and three nights. From the start, she was professional, dependable, and easy to communicate with, which gave us great peace of mind during our trip. Our pets were clearly well cared for and received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Hailey kept us updated while we were away, and it was reassuring to know everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, our pets were happy and relaxed, and our house was clean, secure, and well maintained. Hailey went above and beyond our expectations and treated both our home and pets as if they were her own. Her rates were very fair, especially considering the outstanding level of care and service she provided. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring house and pet sitter. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Hailey!”

About: My love for animals goes beyond simply caring for them; it comes from the heart! Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for friends’ pets and helping families with their furry companions. I also volunteered at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, which strengthened my appreciation for animal care and wildlife conservation. What sets me apart is the love, patience, and personal attention I give every animal. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra cuddles, I always follow your instructions and your dog's routine carefully. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup feels happy and cared for. I treat every animal with the same kindness and affection I would want for my own! My flexible work schedule allows me to make pet care a priority throughout the day! I work only 10 minutes from home, which allows me to visit pets during my lunch break, and I finish work early in the afternoon, giving me plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. I’m also available on weekends since I don’t work Saturdays or Sundays. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and provide loving, reliable care whenever your furry family members need me! I provide loving, attentive care both in your home and mine. I follow each pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, keep their spaces clean, and give them plenty of love and attention. Caring for pets in their own homes allows them to stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also have a spacious apartment in a pet-friendly community with plenty of outdoor space for walks and playtime. Wherever they are, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved like family!

About: Growing up on a farm, I learned to love animals of all kind. I have been a care taker for animals since I was a kid. I am a fur mom of one beautiful mini poodle. I am a current volunteer at Big Dog Rescue Ranch, where I provide all different services and love to our foster dogs until they find their forever home. My schedule is very open and very flexible. With proper planning, I am able to meet your expectations for scheduling. Available any time from Monday through Saturday. Caring for pets is a lot like caring for another person who doesn't speak your language. Luckily, with years of experience, I am able to understand animals needs. I am attentive, energetic, and caring with all animals. I always try my best to meet their needs and ensure their safety.

About: I've owned and been training dogs since I was little. I have had 2 dogs on my own and pets throughout my life. My first job was a self-created pet sitting business when I was in 5th grade. I offered services to local families in my neighborhood. I have watched over reptiles, canines, felines, and multiple breeds of dogs including aggressive breeds. I am a compassionate person and pride myself on taking care of all pets as if they were my own while operating by the golden rule. You can feel safe when you leave your animals with me. I take my own dog out for potty breaks roughly every two to three hours and take her along with me on walks and runs in the community. I plan to pet sit as a Side gig while i am looking for jobs in finance, marketing automation, email marketing and interviewing remotely in Port Saint Lucie Florida I have taken care of all types of dogs, big small and in between. I grew up with pets and have one of my own named Roxy. She is 13 and has some dietary and medical routines that I have to stick to to keep her healthy and happy

About: Pets have always been an important part of my life since I was 6 or 7 years old. Because of that, today I have deep respect for each little being as well as a desire to give them the respect and love they deserve, so I am well versed in care and enrichment of our beloved companions I am in between jobs so I have a lot of flexibility to best meet the care needs of your pets and your personal schedule. With a background also in interior design and home repairs, being respectful of someone's home and space is deeply important to me. I'm happy to follow any special instructions around your pet if they need to be kept in a crate or specific area. I also have experience feeding multiple pets with different diets at the same time.

About: I have actually received many positive reviews for the sitting I have done up to this point, 4 years professionally and a lifetime of experience too! I have mostly had furred and some feathered pets, and have watched them for people I know in their homes too. I've done lots of official sits the past few years, and have been invited back for repeat sits several times. I'm conscientious and organized etc. by nature, and also have a calm presence that most pets quickly warm up to. I've taken care of indoor, outdoor and indoor/outdoor pets before, and am good with doors and keeping them where they need to be. I've also been recommended for other sits, and have had many others reach out to me for sits. I've also done a few sits without even having to meet the owners, like if they needed to take off or needed me to fill in as a replacement, so that's always an option if it ever comes down to it. I've even obliged when the first pick ahead of me falls through, which is no bother for me and probably ends up for the best anyway! My first 15 reviews shown here are just some of the many actual sitting-related reviews I've received over the past few years. I am flexible in general and can accommodate most any pet care requirements and scenarios. And feeding as well as play times and so forth. I am very good with doors and keeping pets contained and where they need to be. I am also attentive and enjoy giving pets attention.

About: Hi! My name is Chandler and I am currently still in college. I have the pleasure of caring for a dog and two cats all of whom were rescued when they were young so I have experience with training, crating, and all things that come with overly excited puppies and kittens. Shimmer is an indoor/outdoor cat so I am way too good at removing fleas and ticks. Jingles is a super friendly, Heinz-57, small dog who wanted to walk with three of his friends everyday so I have no problem handling multiple dogs of multiple sizes. I first got introduced to watching over other people’s animals about five years ago. My neighbors, who are snowbirds, had two dogs who were getting older and had a hard time traveling back and forth so they stayed with my family a couple months while they were up north for two years. I understand how every pet has a unique personality and I am committed to getting to what is necessary to keep yours happy and healthy. I really miss interacting with animals so I’m hoping you’ll allow me to give some love to your furry family members!!! I have in person classes on Thursday night. I am also working part-time Friday-Sunday. Each shift is between 4-5 hours and my schedule changes weekly. If needed I can make a set schedule with my job to accommodate your pets! Typically when I do walks, I play and make sure they had something to eat/drink before we go out. I don’t time restraint the animals unless set forth by the owner. I bring a water bowl, a toy, some treats, and doggy bags with me when I walk. If you live near a park I will most likely take your dog there if they are comfortable being around other people and dogs. If boarding in my home or yours I perform the same care as my own furry friends: probably giving them two much attention but I will follow your guidelines for when/how much food, whether or not they are allowed on furniture or should be in a crate, and any other special instructions.

About: Why My Care is Different What sets me apart is the peace of mind that comes with hiring a professional veterinary technician with approximately eight years of experience. My background is rooted in high-stakes environments, including emergency medicine and overnight clinical supervision, which allows me to provide a level of medical oversight that goes far beyond standard pet sitting. Whether your pet is a healthy ball of energy or a senior requiring complex care, I bring clinical precision and a calm, expert perspective to every visit. Specialized Pet Care Expertise Emergency & Critical Care Experience: Having worked in emergency medicine and supervised overnight shifts, I am trained to remain calm under pressure and identify subtle clinical signs of distress before they become crises. Medical Proficiency: I am highly skilled in administering a wide range of medications and treatments, ensuring your pet’s health regimen stays perfectly on track while you are away. Fear Free Certified Professional: I prioritize your pet's emotional well-being by utilizing Fear Free techniques designed to reduce the stress, restricted movement, and anxiety often associated with handling and care. Senior & Special Needs Support: My extensive veterinary background makes me an ideal choice for senior pets who may need extra mobility assistance, specialized monitoring, or palliative care. Advanced Hygiene Standards: I maintain a clinical level of cleanliness, particularly with litter box maintenance and habitat sanitation, understanding that a pristine environment is the foundation of animal health. Professional Services: In addition to sitting, I provide professional nail trims and dremel services and can offer pet bathing and shaving. How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine My life is centered around animal care, both professionally and personally. Here is how pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine: Professional Integration: As a veterinary technician with approximately eight years of experience, including emergency medicine and overnight supervision, pet care is the core of my daily professional life. Home & Play Space: I live on 3 acres of property, providing a massive, secure space for plenty of outdoor play and enrichment. Personal Experience: I am a dedicated pet owner myself, caring for my own dogs and cats. Flexible Relief Shifts: I utilize the Roo platform for veterinary technician relief shifts, which allows me to balance clinical work with dedicated pet sitting. My approach to safety and environment is rooted in professional clinical standards and a deep commitment to the emotional well-being of every animal. Whether I am providing care in your home or welcoming a pet to mine, my goal is to create a secure, low-stress atmosphere where health and happiness are the top priorities. Care in Your Home When visiting your home, I bring the observational skills of a veteran veterinary technician to every shift. Medical Vigilance: With eight years of experience in emergency medicine and overnight supervision, I am trained to monitor for subtle changes in behavior or health that could indicate an underlying issue. Fear Free Environment: I utilize Fear Free techniques to ensure that all interactions—especially tasks that can be stressful, like nail trims—are handled with patience and positive reinforcement. Cleanliness & Hygiene: I maintain a clinical standard of sanitation. I take pride in deep-cleaning litter boxes and keeping pet areas pristine, as a clean environment is essential for disease prevention and overall comfort. Security Protocols: I am meticulous about home security, ensuring doors and gates are properly locked and your home is respected exactly as you left it. Care in My Home For pets visiting my home, I offer a professional-grade environment designed for both safety and fun. Spacious & Secure Play: I live on 3 acres of property, offering ample room for supervised outdoor exercise, enrichment, and play. Professional Oversight: Your pet is never just "staying" at a house; they are under the care of a professional veterinary technician capable of administering any necessary medications or treatments. Socialization & Comfort: Pets in my care enjoy a home environment alongside my own dogs and cats. I am always mindful of individual temperaments to ensure every animal feels safe and integrated. Emergency Preparedness: Because of my extensive background in emergency clinics, I am prepared to act decisively and calmly in the rare event of a medical emergency.

About: I have dog sat anywhere from one dog to five at one time! I started when I was around 12 years old for a neighbor but have watched up to 5 pets for an entire week before! I am currently working full time from 9am-6pm but I have siblings who would be able to take the dog out midday if needed as well! I am off two days during the week as I work in the service industry! I love all animals and as a pet parent myself I understand how important it is to trust the individual you leave your baby with! I always send pictures through the stay so you know you animal is well cared for:) I think it is super important to build trust with animals! Giving them space when needed but also as much love as those cuties deserve!

FAQs for House Sitting - Canal Point

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 552 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Canal Point. 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 Canal Point 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 Canal Point 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 Canal Point 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.
