“Jason took great care of our 5 dogs and house while we were out of town! The dogs all seemed very comfortable with him. Even the one that is very weary of new people warmed up to him particularly quickly! Jason kept the house clean and was very attentive to all of the dogs needs. He read all the instructions we left for him and followed them to a T. Highly recommend Jason!”
“Beverly was a wonderful caregiver to our elderly pup. We could tell he was very comfortable with her and she treated him with love and kindness as if he were her own. We would highly recommend her to everyone who has pets to be cared for.”
“David did an awesome job went over and above when I expected of him! Very friendly I could tell he loved the dogs! he showed up on time and was ready to work. We will definitely use David in the future.”
“kyleigh house sat for a week while we travelled abroad, and when we came home our pup was acting totally normal and the home was spotless. she also sent us photo updates most days which helped us enjoy the travels without worrying about our doggo. highly recommend!!”
“Jess was the absolute BEST for our dog! Not only did she take complete care of Kahuna but she was VERY respectful of our home and took excellent care of it as well! I would recommend Jess to anyone! I look forward to have her watch Kahuna for us again”
“Andi is a great pet sitter! She did a great job watching our GSP, Josh, who really liked her. I love how she sent us a few updates and photos every day and stayed in touch with us while we were away. She came to meet Josh before staying at our house with him and texted to confirm the appointment a day before which was great. Thank you, Andi!”
“Our experience with Jesse was absolutely amazing! We’ve never had someone stay at our home with our fur baby before, so we were a little nervous at the beginning, but the moment I met Jesse, I felt 100% comfortable leaving Thor and our home in her hands. She offered to come over before we left to meet us and Thor, and to go over details of the stay. She sent pictures during our trip (which I loved!) and I could tell Thor was very happy to have her there. We are so thankful to have found Jesse, and will absolutely be using her in the future! I recommend Jesse 100% !”
“Wow amazing! Amazing communication and even came by for a meet and greet with such short notice. One of our pups had some tummy troubles and she kept us updated the entire time and even made a vet visit on our behalf. The whole process she made a breeze. We will for sure be using again. She loves dogs.. it radiates off her!! Our boys seemed so so happy and we felt comfortable having her stay in our home.”
About: I've been caring for animals all my life. Dogs, hamsters and birds were part of my household growing up. My purpose and passion is to care for animals in whatever capacity I can. From dogs and cats to birds, ferrets and reptiles. I have worked in the veterinary field for 30 + years. One of those hospitals was an avian and exotic hospital. I am a certified veterinary assistant although generally preferred the front desk aspect. I have chosen to leave that field and focus on pets in their home. I love pet sitting. I've been doing it on the side for close to 30years. I particularly love senior pets and cats. I love the close relationships I develop with the animals in my care. I will love and care for you pet as I do my own. This is my full time employment. I am available to drop in to your home as much as 2-3 times a day as needed. I do not board in my home and will occasionally be available for overnight stays. I will come to your home and follow your instructions to the letter. I will keep the space clean and tidy and care for a few plants as well. Your pet will receive lots of loving attention from me. Lots of snuggles if they so choose or playtime or just general company. I respect all pets boundaries.
“Stephanie stayed in our home with our two boys for 3 nights and was absolutely amazing! She sent pictures, updates and was so kind. Our hearts were at ease knowing they were in great hands while we were out of state. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for many years. I'm the person people contact when they feel they need a trustworthy, kindhearted, animal lover who completely understands their beloved friends needs. I offer a safe, fun environment, and will cater to your requests! I have a large fenced yard for lots of playtime however I always walk with leash and prefer dog owners let me know if their pet answers to COME, in order to let off leash and play ball, or if they prefer to keep on a lead when outside for playtime. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs in my home since I was a child. Many breeds, from min-pin, to German Shephard. I prefer to care for dogs that are used to children. I have helped rescue, and foster dogs, for people in a variety of living circumstances, all with great results! I currently don't have any pets. My beloved Chihuahua Lily of 14 years died 3 years ago. Prior to her passing, I had many cats over a span of 35 years and a couple other dogs.
“We had family come into town and that resulted in a last minute trip to Universal. Unfortunately, our regular rover relocated across the country, so imagine our delight to find Julia! She quickly responded to us and the next day met our house of dogs for a meet and greet. Talk about professionalism! Our dogs thought she was great, too! We hope she will become OUR regular rover. We highly recommend, Julia!”
“Hailey is the best! She handled our wild husky so well! She provided us with updates, pictures, and kept us at ease during our trip! She is so nice and courteous and treated our home with care! It’s great to know we have someone we can trust our dog and home with!! Will def be using her again!”
About: I’ve dog sat for friends and family since I was a teenager. I also have three dogs of my own and grew up with dogs my whole life, so I know dogs well. I’m currently working a part time job, and my college courses are very flexible! I have free time during the day and my shifts are short. I plan to keep them company as often as possible, feed them, bathe them (if necessary), and walk them. Whatever the clients preference is, I’ll oblige, no problem!
“We loved having Courtney watch our dog Zeus! She communicated well & checked in with us daily with photos! We highly recommend Courtney for sitting! We will use her again in the future!”
“Sydney was amazing! My pets were well taken care of and I did not need to worry at all, she even sent pictures! Sydney also left the house cleaner than it was when she got here. She was very gracious and accommodating when I had a last minute change. I will 100% book Sydney again.”
About: I've been an animal lover since I was a little kid, having birds, lizards, guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and more, I have experience with all kinds of pets! I got my start working as a dog handler for a large facility in Michigan that offered daycare, boarding, grooming, and training for all breeds of dogs. That is where I fell in love with taking care of animals. I graduated from the Academy of Animal Arts and Sciences and since then I have been grooming at a salon as well as doing freelance pet sitting, training, and grooming. I am currently working part time Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, roughly 6:30am-3pm so I am available to care for your pet outside of those hours. I currently am not able to board dogs in my home, due to damage from hurricane helene and hurricane milton but I am available for pet care in your home!
About: As a devoted pet sitter, I bring enthusiasm, care, and reliability to every pet | look after. I understand that each dog/cat/pet is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs, whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering companionship and love. With a strong sense of responsibility and a genuine passion for pets, I ensure your friend feels happy, safe, and well-cared for while you're away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clearwater Beach
I had an excellent experience with Jason. He took wonderful care of Smokey during my trip and was incredibly friendly, professional, and accommodating throughout the entire process. My travel plans changed on both ends of the booking, and he was extremely understanding and flexible with the adjustments, which I really appreciated. He followed all of my instructions perfectly, took great care of Smokey, and left my home very clean and exactly as I had left it. It’s such a relief to find someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with him again. Highly recommend!
Brandi provided excellent care to our two doggies (housesit/overnights). We have an older one that got sick/gastro issues the day before we left and she was excellent at communicating how much she was eating, behaviors, drinking etc. Greatly appreciated the extra communication and pictures from Brandi. Our other dog is a rescue and doesn’t like “strangers”. She had him cuddling with her within a day which absolutely stunned us! Would definitely recommend Brandi and will be using her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,535 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clearwater Beach. 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 Clearwater Beach 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 Beach 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 Beach 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.
