“We will always recommend Allorah! She is so kind and caring and all of our animals are always comfortable and happy to have her watch them while we are out of town!”
About: I have owned cats and dogs my whole life, of all ages. I have been taking care of other people’s animals for the past 2 years, and it’s honestly been such an amazing experience, seeing how grateful owners are that their babies are taken care of, and seeing how happy the pet is to have someone to play with or cuddle with. Pet care is my job so I have a wide flexible schedule for this! I do daily walks, or daily check ins. I also do sitting where I go over for hours at a time while the owner is away. I have clients who have pets who have never been alone before, and anytime they need to leave the house I’ll go over and sit with them, feed them, walk them if necessary. But it gives them a lot of peace of mind that their baby is not anxious with them gone, and is well taken care of.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luciana is incredible! We came down from Tennessee to Orlando and needed someone we could trust to watch our dogs for two days while we enjoyed the parks — and Luciana absolutely delivered. She was early both days, communicated flawlessly, and sent frequent updates and pictures that gave us total peace of mind. Her professionalism and kindness made the whole experience stress-free. If you don’t book Luciana, you’re making a mistake. She’s the real deal.”
“Andrew was the man! He really came thru and helped my wife and me on our wedding day when plans were forced to change last minute. He drove our dogs from our venue back to our Airbnb and stayed with them till the end of the wedding. He sent pictures of our fur babies throughout the night which really put us at ease. He even came to meet the pups the day before so it would be easier on them. Would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of a pet sitter in the greater Kissimmee area. Thanks again Andrew!”
“Wow! Do I have enough space to describe how awesome Kat is? Our sweet fur baby is a senior with significant health challenges of late. The only reason we were able to travel was because of Kat (this visit was a stay over in our home). It was clear that she understood the assignment and could be trusted to give timely meds. She also was not ‘afraid’ of the challenges. We knew Missy would be loved and doted on. Kat also understood this fur momma’s concerns and kept me updated with pics and a nice description of how things were going. I cannot say how much we appreciate her. Missy has initiated Kat into her Pack! We will absolutely request Kat every time we need help! She’s just AWESOME!🙌🏾”
“Kristina was fantastic! Super responsive and appreciated the meet and greet before our trip. The pups and cat were well taken care of and we got lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be using Kristina again!”
About: Dogs, cats, fish or whatever baby you call family, I’m your go-to person! Animals are my absolute joy, and I treat every single one like the superstar they are. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, it doesn't matter; they’re all a perfect 10 in my book Need a walker? Playtime buddy? A cuddle companion? I’ve got you covered! My schedule is as flexible as a yoga instructor on a trampoline. Whatever your pet needs, I’m here to make it happen. No matter their size or breed, I bring my A-game every time. Your pet’s safety is my top priority! I’ve got a screened-in back patio for fresh air without the escape artist antics. No other pets here, so if your fur baby prefers solo time, we’re golden. My space is tidy and pet-proofed for their comfort and your peace of mind
“Brenda stayed with my German Shepherd and 18 year old cat over the weekend and it went better than I could have expected. My German shepherd, Zeus, can be very picky and after a failed attempt at a different sitter I wasn’t sure we’d find a good fit. Zeus took to Brenda with ease and put any worries that I had to rest so I could have a relaxing weekend and he could have a lot of fun. I think he was a little sad that I came home and not his new buddy! She also was able to take care of both Zeus and my cat’s medical needs. Definitely couldn’t recommend her more, Zeus definitely looks forward to her staying with him again.”
“WOW!!! Yvonne & Pablo are amazing, they truly are the best sitters we have ever had. You do not need to look any further, if they are available, book them! They are fantastic people who are genuine and down to earth. Our dog Sky was so excited to see them every time they arrived and she was exhausted when they left. I actually think Pablo has just as much fun with the dogs as the dogs have with him.”
“Kristina was above and beyond what we ever expected. her never ending love and attention she gave our fur babies was amazing it’s like they just gained a second mama bear ❤️ The pups were excited to see us when we got home but we’re also super relaxed because well Kristina was here they had no stress only LOT OF LOVE!!! She was amazing at sending us updates with adorable pictures & videos. We also returned home to see she cleaned the house and brought in the mail, so all we had to do was relax and snuggle with everyone❤️ Kristina will be always be first on our list if we need someone to watch our fur babies.”
“Maritza is a fur baby parent’s dream!! Her communication, professionalism, and planning is above and beyond!! Her caring for our Happy was more than we could ever hoped for! She made sure that both myself and our Happy felt both love and comforted while being apart. Again, I cannot recommend a better sitter for your fur baby.”
“Took good care of our Labrador Finn while we were away for a week. Sara made sure he got walks and got to swim and spent lots of time with Finn. We had a really hard time booking with rover and them processing payment and paying Sara timely. Rover was terrible but Sara was easy to work with and patient while they figured it out.”
About: Lifetime animal lover with specialized care experience. I have spent my entire life surrounded by pets and have personally owned cats and dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages—from energetic puppies and kittens to gentle seniors requiring extra patience. Because of this lifetime of experience, I am highly attuned to animal behavior and comfort levels. I am completely comfortable administering oral and topical medications, managing strict feeding schedules, and handling basic grooming needs like bathing and brushing. Whether your pet needs a high-energy play session, a relaxing bath, or meticulous medical care, I can provide a safe, experienced, and loving environment tailored precisely to their routine. I am currently available Monday through Friday after 5pm and any time on weekends to care for your pets. Please always feel free to reach out to see how we can make it work! I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pet requires immense trust, which is why your pet’s safety and the security of your property is my absolute priority. As a dedicated, full-time pet care servicer, I strictly follow your specific home rules, locking procedures, and pet routines to keep everything seamless and secure. I am highly vigilant during outdoor transitions, always keeping your dog securely leashed, maintaining strict awareness of my surroundings, and never allowing interaction with unknown animals. I manage your home and care for your pets with the highest level of respect, providing you with complete peace of mind and detailed, transparent updates during every single visit.
“Laticia is the BEST!!! Our girls love her - we have always had a hard time leaving them knowing they would not get the same love and attention we give them. With Laticia it was a different story, she fills the void and then some! She played, cuddled, talked and quite possibly interacted with them even more than we do! Not sure they missed us at all. lol We give her the highest recommendation and will definitely be requesting her again! Bonus points-- After caring for the dogs for a week, we came home to a spotless house!”
“Nate was great! He stayed with my two dogs while I was out of town and took care of everything I needed him to and more! He kept me updated every step of the way. I would definitely recommend him!”
About: I have watched friends, family and family friends pets throughout my life. I love making new fuzzy friends and providing care for your best friend with peace of mind so you can enjoy your day, vacation etc. I work part time and am in school online. With that I can be readily available for your pet during the time you need. My schedule is always the same to make time for your pets schedule and needs. I have 3 cats and a dog. I take my dog on long walks everyday and go to the dog park about twice a week. He has a set schedule for his feeding and needs. My cats just live their best life inside my home with plenty of treats and scratchers around.
“Kamora did such a wonderful job pet sitting my 5 fur babies when I had to go out of town! She was attentive and had great communication, providing photos and videos! I would definitely book her again!”

I didn't know that it was a couple that watched my dogs? But it actually worked out better! Jamie and her husband are Great ! Very polite, respectful, and humble. I would be glad to use them again! They helped us out in a jamb and stayed an extra day with no notice! House was left clean, bed made, no dishes, etc. Good kids! Will hire again!
Kat has been an absolute lifesaver for us - couldn’t recommend her enough! After moving from the UK to the US earlier this year, I was anxious about finding someone who could look after my nervous dog who has never stayed with anyone other than family. Kat was more than understanding with us when we wanted to arrange a few visits beforehand so Vinnie could get to know her. It’s meant that we’ve been able to enjoy a short vacation without worrying about him. She was also very accommodating when we announced we’d adopted a second dog a week before! We’ve had lots of photos and updates which has been really great, and I think Vinnie and Boone are already looking forward to the next time!
This was our 2nd time using Haylee and she was just as wonderful! We will continue to use her for future needs! My dog normally has separation anxiety and was fine the whole time with Haylee! She’s very reliable and responsive! She sent picture updates every visit!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Davenport on Rover is $53.5 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 2,133 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Davenport. 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 Davenport 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 Davenport 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 Davenport 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.
