“Maricel was amazing! She took very good care of our animals while we were away and kept us updated on how they were doing and things they did, and also sent pictures. We will definitely be using Maricel again! ❤️”
“We were very grateful to have Jennifer's help with our three pets while out of town (an adult dog, a puppy, and a cat). We appreciated her enthusiasm to be there for our pets, be a presence for our home while we were gone, and it gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was very communicative and respectful of our home, and she took good care of our animals. Thank you, Jennifer!”
About: I am well versed on various training, dog sitting, boarding and walking methods for our canine family members. Gained hands on experience of training and handling with my 11 year old GSD. I personally researched for years and only then successfully trained my current 10 month old GSD, using my other 11 year old GSD as a control. I will offer free consults to clients in need of repeat services in order to determine the tailored needs for your dog. Always willing to go above and beyond for my love of dogs. Excel with all dogs and utilize communication with the client in order to fully understand the specific qualities, needs and wants of the dog in order to organize and manage effective walks/boarding/training. I have been living in the area for over 20 years and know all of the dog-friendly parks or areas that provide a clean and safe environment offering an array of enrichment. Knowledgeable in training and recognizing animal body language used to establish positive communication with the dogs. I can not only improve the lives of the dog, but also clearly communicate and empower the owner with training tips to continue effective conditioning for a well-trained dog. My remote position of over 5 years as a Sr Mortgage Underwriter was recently moved into the office (Tampa) and decided to take time off. Therefore, I am available 24/7 and mainly focusing on the transition into the Dog Walking/Boarding/Training business. *HOUSE SITTING SERVICE: Active as a less expensive alternative to booking numerous Drop-In visits with multiple dogs.

“All care requested was met with flying colors! My fur babes were in the best care so happy when I returned home like they had been on vacation too! I got photos everyday of their goofy sweet faces”
“Brittany is an amazing dog sitter!! She’s so sweet and put my mind at ease right away. Brittany loves animals, she took great care of my pup and my house. She also took pics and videos so I could see what my baby was up to. Don’t hesitate, you can trust her with your fur baby! My vaca was stress free knowing my dog was in great hands with Brittany.”
About: Hi! My name is Brandy! I have a certificate for zoo and domestic animal care from yavapai college in Arizona. I am also a dog owner of 11 years. I have certified both my dogs through the petsmart training courses. I have learned a lot through school and owning dogs of my own and have always had a passion for animals. Thanks so much for considering me for your furry babies! I am a server working part time and am looking for a way to make a little extra money on the side doing something I love! I am available for dog walking Monday-Sunday anytime before 2:30 and available Monday-Wednesday for overnights or whatever you may need as those are my days off. I will not be able to board any animals as I have a bit of a reactive border collie at my house but am available to come to your house for your needs
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I've cared for dogs through every stage of life—from helping with a senior Labrador to raising my two Golden Retrievers. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet, and I'm committed to providing the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own dogs. I specialize in dogs with high energy, anxiety and medication tracking. I'm an active dog lover who walks my dogs twice daily and enjoys taking them on runs. My dogs always come first, and I believe every pet deserves plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets in my dog-friendly home. I have a large yard with plenty of space for dogs to play, exercise, and explore while being supervised.
“Katie was great with Angel! Katie and Angel quickly became friends which we were happy to see since Angel does not normally warm up to new people. Katie was also very prompt and polite. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Rebecca is a wonderful pet sitter! She provided the best care to our fur babies. They can be a little skittish with strangers but she won them over quickly. I was so happy to see the photos of happy and calm pups! It helped us enjoy our time away.”
About: I come from a family who worked alongside wildlife conservation groups since I was young, raising infant squirrels, tending to sick horses and of course, our own dogs and cats. I was raised with animals of all kind, reptiles even, and so it is to my belief that they deserve the same level of care and respect that we would give to our own real children. All critters and furry companions alike need love. 🩵 I’m a disabled novelist and creative so that gives me plenty of free time to care for your animal companions! Just shoot me a message and let’s figure out a solution to your needs. I only offer out of home care, aka house sitting, visits to feed and other walk pets. My home has a cat and would not be a safe environment to invite other animals into. Her safety is my top priority.
“Ryeleigh did great with our poochies. She had to deal with an elderly, incontinent dog so I am very thankful that she was willing to help him. She communicated often and sent a pic of her walking Oskie. Thanks, Ryeleigh!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dogsitter than Colten. He provided excellent care for both of our very different dogs -- one large and anxious, one small and elderly. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that our pups were in such good hands!”
“Brianne was amazing with our chaotic, nutty furry bunch! We left her with our trio of cats and the dynamic duo of dogs, for a total of five. The first thing we noticed was how all of our furry ones were drawn to her. Animals just know if a person is good. Being away is hard, but it feels better when you have someone you can trust to love you while you're gone. My wife and I had complete peace of mind with her caring for our babies. Brianne is the BEST!”
“Our doggies loved having Benjamin care for them. They were healthy, very happy, and bright eyed when we arrived home from a trip abroad. We will deinitely ask Benjamin to care for them our future trips.”
“Hailey was great and I’ll definitely use her again. Daily pictures showed Lucy was happy and comfortable with us being gone. Upon leaving Hailey left a detailed message of what Lucy’s day had been like up to that point and we came home to a clean house!”
“This is our second time using Kacie, but the first time for house sitting. Once again, she did a wonderful job and was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and took good care of everything.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in DeBary is $45

Maricel did an amazing job taking care of our dogs! She was reliable, caring, and made sure they were well taken care of while we were away. We really appreciate everything she did and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend Maricel to anyone looking for a great dog sitter! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kelly is so great with all of my animals. She takes wonderful care of them and always goes above and beyond to make sure I’m able to relax while I’m away from my babies. 🙂 She is proactive about confirming bookings and special instructions, sends me lots of pictures, and even washed my pets’ dishes this past time! I truly don’t have to worry about anything when she’s on duty. We’ve had Kelly sit for us for a couple of years now. Two of our three pups have passed away over the years, so she is especially meaningful to us because she has that long-term knowledge, care, and reliability. Thank you so much, Kelly!

FAQs for House Sitting - DeBary
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in DeBary on Rover is $49.95 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 2,591 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across DeBary. 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 DeBary 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 DeBary 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 DeBary 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in DeBary. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
