“Caundra did an amazing job watching my two dogs while I was on vacation! 🐶❤️ She took great care of them, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. My dogs were happy and well taken care of when I got back. I really appreciate everything she did and would definitely trust her with my dogs again. Highly recommend Caundra!”
About: I currently have 3 (Riesen 18, Buddy 10, and Pepper 7) cats. I have also had a hedgehog, a dog with special dietary needs, fish, and bees. I am here to help keep them stress free and keep their routines as normal as possible. I love animals and ready to cuddle your sweet animal while you are away. I'm available Friday thru Monday and can check on your fur baby at least a couple times a day. I hope to give lots of cuddles and provide you lots of updates I can easily make sure to follow any security measures, check fences, just let me know your routine and I can implement during met and greets just give me a run down.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved, comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Whether that means going for walks, playing with their favorite toys, getting some exercise or simply keeping them company, I love being an extra buddy for your pet! I had a dog for seven years who was the sweetest companion, and after graduating college, I got a dog of my own. She's now five years old, and I love having her by my side. I also have experience raising puppies, as I brought my dog home when she was just four months old. I'm a flexible and dependable person who is happy to accommodate your pet's individual needs and routines. As long as we communicate ahead of time about scheduling and expectations, I'll do my best to be there when you need me. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a little more attention or specific care, I'm always happy to help make sure they're in good hands! I can be pretty flexible. Anytime after 5 pm on the weekdays and anytime on Saturday and Sundays, I’m available. I work full time and so that does affect when I can walk your pet but I can definitely do drop ins. I usually walk my dog after work or play fetch for a hour or more. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard, with lots of space to sprint around and have fun with me and my fur-baby. The neighborhood is very safe and well-paved for good long walks as well. My dog is great with other dogs and loves to romp around outside with a ball, stick or pretty much anything.
“We had a wonderful experience with Ari! She watched our dogs and cat for 9 nights while we were on vacation, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands while we were away. Ari took great care of them and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs. We really appreciate everything Ari did and would absolutely trust her to watch them again.”
About: I’ve been around almost every kind of dog in my life, from little small wiener dogs to Great Danes and pits. I enjoy dogs with a passion, I truly love their loyalty towards their owner. No matter how hard your day is once you come home it’s the best greeting you’ll ever get. Can’t say that about to many things nor people now can you. So I’m getting ready to head to the airforce very soon and I need to find a way to have money coming in before I leave. I thought what’s the best way to do that and the first thing that came to mind was my dogs. So I want to provide others with a solid person to trust around their loved ones no matter what. So i got a small morkie mix as the little brother and an American bully for the big brother. We establish walks,food,water is given 24/7,treats when a task or a good dog is listening. The most important of all, attention and love.
About: Hi, I'm Jennifer! I’m from Phoenix, Arizona, where I worked as a technician assistant in a busy veterinary emergency department. Working there gave me hands on training in providing attentive, compassionate care especially in high stress situations where pets need extra love and patience. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, I grew up with a Weimaraner and a house cat, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, and pets with special medical or behavioral needs. I currently have open availability and would love the opportunity to care for your pets, whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe and happy while you're gone! With each service I will make sure your pets safety is my first priority as well as making sure they’re happy and well taken care of. I know how important it is to make sure any dog/cat feels comfortable with new people especially if they’re from a shelter or did not have a loving home before, that is something I will always keep in mind when approaching/meeting animals.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am currently in school still but get out early.

I have done it all from feeding, bathing, walking as well as administering medication. I am very kind, caring, and loving and I'll treat your animals as if they were my own! I work with pets every day so I am usually always available. I can also be flexible to ensure that it works with your schedule. I have 3 dogs of my own that are my pride and joy so I know how important it is to have someone you trust be able to take care of your pet. I promise to make sure your fur baby is loved, exercised, fed and watered while in my care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Clearwater is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $50 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 Clearwater 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 Clearwater 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 Clearwater 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.

- 95% 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.
