“Debra was wonderful!! Debra moved in and sat for us and our 2 little fur babies. She took wonderful care of them, complete with baths. Gave medicine as needed. Plus received pictures each day. We felt completely comfortable leaving our house and 2 little dogs in her care. We will use her again when needed. Highly recommend.”

“Allison was able to extend her care for my dog when my return flight was delayed. She came in clutch in an emergency. She is conscientious, caring and kind. She adjusted to the routine my elderly dog was used to so things stayed consistent for him. It helped out a lot and he was clearly happy and well cared for.”

About: I have a long history of pet care, and have extensive experience with the Shar Pei breed. I have owned Shar Pei's for over 25yrs and have done some rescue work with them as well. I have owned cats and dogs my entire life. I have experience with dogs that may need extra care such as meds or extra attention. Can't imagine life without them they just bring such a joy into our lives. You can have confidence in knowing while I'm taking care of your pet I will treat, and love them as my own. I know how hard it is to find the right person to take care of your pets, and will take the best of care of your 🐾🐾babies. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I intentionally structure my schedule to ensure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets are never left unattended for long periods. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I maintain a reliable and flexible schedule to meet each pet’s needs. My goal is to provide dependable, routine-based care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident knowing their pets are a priority. I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs, whether in my home or my client’s home. I prioritize building trust by following the pet’s normal routine, maintaining a clean and secure space, and ensuring constant supervision and care. I’m mindful of each pet’s temperament, dietary needs, and any special instructions, and I take precautions such as secure doors, leash use, and hazard-free surroundings to keep them safe at all times. My goal is to create a comfortable, low-stress environment where pets feel cared for, protected, and at ease while their owners are away.

About: I love animals as I have had about ten cats over the years and about four dogs. I have had pets since I was basically born. At one point I was looking into or was recommended by people to become a vet! I am at the moment typically free other than doing school work for college. I would be able to tend to animal needs pretty much anytime! I am often noted as attentive and disciplined, especially when it comes to others. For in home care I let pets do their thing (unless potting on things or breaking).

About: hey! 🐾 My name is Hannah and I’m 26 years old. I am an animal lover with a background in psychology and animal behavior. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician for kiddos with behavioral needs in Sarasota County Schools and often volunteer as a dog walker at Suncoast Humane Society! I love getting to know every dog’s unique personality, whether they’re playful puppies, energetic adults, shy pups who need a little extra patience, or sweet seniors who prefer a slower pace. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and enjoy providing walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and companionship. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following special care instructions. Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart thanks to my soul dog, Sparkie, who passed away in 2024 at 16 years old. ❤️ Caring for him through his senior years gave me personal experience supporting dogs with arthritis, chronic pain, and mobility limitations. I’m happy to provide that same patience and thoughtful care to any dog who needs a little extra attention! I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’ll treat your pet with love, respect their routine, follow your instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pup is in caring, attentive hands! **Availability 🗓️** I’m fully available on weekends and available for weekday walks Monday–Friday after 4 PM. Have a special request or need a different time? Feel free to message me! I’m happy to discuss exceptions and find a time that works for you and your pup. 🐶❤️ I am entirely free on Saturday and Sunday. M-F I am available after 4 pm. This is subject to change, please message with requests. From personal experience, I can empathize that leaving our furry friends can be an intimidating experience. However, I will do everything in my power to give your pet the same love, attention, and care that you would. I will actively communicate with you and ensure that my quality of care is nothing short of exceptional.

About: I have traveled around the world and cared for all kinds of animals (including farm animals). I love animals and they love me (since I was a child). I am caring, genuine and trustworthy. I am responsible and respectful and would be honored to take care of your furbaby. My schedule is flexible at the moment so I can be available any day of the week, including weekends. Just reach out and let me know what you need. I care for pets as instructed by the owner, but always with kindness and awareness. I know it is a huge responsibility so I am present when I am with the pet on walks, not distracted on the phone, etc.

About: I will treat your babies just like mine. I will take them to dog parks, on my boat, or adventures if you'd like and if theyre adventurous. I have lifejackets for all sizes. Also, I'm amazing with senior dogs if they just want to relax at home. Currently, my dog is 13 years old that I've had since she were puppy. The most important would be away from your pups are 4.5 hours. I own and run a boat tour business in the area. Most of my trips are 4 hours max. Whatever your rules are at your home is what I do. When I take them out on adventures I always keep them on leash unless it is gated. Even if they have recall, I don't chance that.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cape Haze

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 738 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cape Haze. 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 Cape Haze 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 Cape Haze 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 Cape Haze 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 Cape Haze. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
