About: Taking care of fur babies has been a passion of mine since a very young age. I used to pretend to be the neighborhood dog trainer at the age of like 7! I’m no dog trainer, but I’m definitely able to love and care for your fur babies like they deserve. I can’t offer 24/7 care as I work a full time job, however the hours are pretty flexible. I’m typically off Wednesday and Thursday so I’m available anytime. Friday-Tuesday it varies but I’m typically available in the morning to 4pm :) I have 3 cats who I love very much. I’m a great communicator and will keep in contact and provide pictures through out the experience. If your pet is happy, then I am too!

I have a passion for animals and plan on building a career around training and caring for them. I have over 3 years experience of training animals, doing everything from basic obedience to specialized service dog and reactivity training! I love working with and caring for all animals of different kinds and sizes! I am currently working on building my own training business for dogs but my schedule remains open and flexible for any and all of your needs! I treat all dogs in my care as my own as a pet owner myself I understand how hard it can be to trust someone else to care for your babies but rest assured in my care they will be well cared for and I will send regular updates (if requested) about your pets!

“Wow! I feel so lucky to have found Kayla to watch my THREE large dogs. They all immediately loved her, and she was so kind and accommodating to my vacation schedule. Do not hesitate to book with this awesome sitter, but please do not hog her!! I'll need her again for my babies soon ❤️❤️❤️”
About: I have been a veterinary technician for 3+ years and counting. We have had pets in our home since I can remember. I have grown up with the love and loyalty that our pets provide and is something that I cherish. I started pet sitting for coworkers and clients for about 2 years now. I love helping fellow pet owners with caring for their pets in a time of need. My favorite thing is gaining trust from pet owners and ensuring that owners have peace of mind when it comes to being away from their pets. Having the medical background that I do also helps to ensure that your senior babies are being taken care of properly. Pets are family. I am currently a full time veterinary technician and work all days (8am-6pm) except Tuesdays, every other Saturdays (only from 8am- 12pm), and Sundays. With my full time schedule, I make sure that a pets needs come first. I will only pet sit for pets that I can guarantee my utmost care. I house sit a lot as well so this is helpful with my full time job. I tend to pet sit close to my job so if I have to leave in the middle of the day to take a dog out, I definitely can. I make sure to follow all written or printed instructions to a T. I also make sure to stay in close contact with owners (not too close to ruin your vacation) to ensure that they are still at peace of mind throughout their time away. I also love to send photos of their pets while they’re gone so they’re not missing out on too much :)
“Kristina is an amazing dog sitter! She asked lots of questions to get to know our dog, she is clearly an animal lover and we felt comfortable knowing that our dog was being watched by a responsible and caring person. Definitely will have her dog sit for us again!”
“I am very pleased with Stephanie. We enjoyed getting to know each other. Zeke was so happy to see her and is exhausted from the extra exercise (like walking) which I am unable to do with him. Thanks again, Stephanie.”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! She sent pics and updates throughout the day while we were out! Our boy, Mav, was wiped out when we got home! He is about 3 1/2 yr old spoiled rotten Sheepadoodle! We would HIGHLY recommend her for your fur baby! She is kind and very patient - Mav took to her immediately!”
“Bradley was excellent and very trustworthy he was great with our senior dog and she like him a lot I would recommend him highly when we are in need for Rover again we will be Using Bradley again”
About: As a proud U.S. Navy Veteran, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I have experience caring for and training dogs in animal shelters and on base, along with providing monthly grooming for family and friends for over 10 years. I can assist with basic grooming, reinforce obedience commands, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with their safety, comfort, and happiness as my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾🤍 I love taking walks with my dogs and also help care for my mother’s dogs. I believe dogs thrive with consistency, positive reinforcement, and a good routine. 🐾 I help reinforce good behaviors and keep a consistent schedule for walks, meals, and playtime, so your pup knows what to expect and feels happy, comfortable, and secure. Your pup will feel right at home in my cozy 3-bedroom townhome, complete with a fully fenced backyard where they can safely roam, play, and enjoy some freedom! I’m an active person who enjoys taking long daily walks, so your furry friend will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and adventure. Most importantly, they’ll receive lots of love, attention, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! ❤️
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely amazing experience! We could not have asked for a better dog/house sitter. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our home and fur baby were in such good hands. They went above and beyond in every way — not only taking incredible care of our dog, but also treating our home with so much care and attention. We got updates, photos, and could tell our pup was happy, loved, and spoiled while we were away. Coming home to a happy dog and a well cared-for house was the best feeling. Reliable, thoughtful, trustworthy, and truly exceptional. We will absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone without hesitation !”

When your pet is with me, you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is simple: earn your trust by providing dependable service and giving your pet the love, attention, and care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

Your for baby will be an excellent hands with the help of our dog Jacob. We have a huge backyard which is more than enough room for the babies to play. Not to worry they are never left unattended

Brittany got Waffles to interacts with her within a day and even seemed to be playful with her. I highly recommend Brittany and i will be using her again when i have the need.”

My partner and I both work from home and have flexible schedules. We prefer a day or so notice to book if possible. Thank you!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cypress Gardens
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cypress Gardens on Rover is $36.55 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,410 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cypress Gardens. 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 Cypress Gardens 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 Cypress Gardens 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 Cypress Gardens 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
