“Heather was great with our 75 pound yellow lab, Whitby. Simply said, she is a fantastic dog/home sitter. Heather being present allowed my wife and I to truly vacation without concern for how our pup is being cared for. We look forward to working with Heather again soon.”
“Terry was absolutely incredible and took the best care of our 2 kitties when we went out of town! Daily pictures and videos, so many updates and great communication! I would give her even more stars if I could. We have never felt safer leaving our babies in another's hands, and we could not recommend her enough. She truly goes above and beyond. :)”
“Excellent expirience all around. This was our first time using Rover after our original sitter fell through. Chris was fantastic at communicating and sent so many updates and photos we felt like our dogs were with us on our trip. Chris not only let our dogs out and fed them but really cared for them and made sure they were happy and comfortable while we were gone. We will absolutely use Chris again!”
“SUPER🤩 This was our first time using Michaela, and she was absolutely wonderful! She watched our 5 year old lab at our home for a week and did a fabulous job with her. Cali is a very active and energetic lab. She followed her schedule and met Cali’s needs. Michaela made sure that her needs were met by getting her outside a few times during the day to play fetch with her frisbee and tennis ball, along with taking her on her walks. And not only that, Cali has a bit of anxiety at times and Michaela made sure she was loved and got the attention she needed while we were away. Michaela did check-ins and sent pictures daily( morning and evening). Michaela is very professional, caring and super friendly plus, she actually had more questions for us about Cali then we did for her, which was super impressive. She took notes about Cali starting with what her daily routine is like, her eating schedule, activities she likes, her behaviors etc. You name it, she asked it. My husband and I just knew after meeting with her, that she would be perfect taking care of Cali because you could just tell that she genuinely cares about your pet and their needs. We also felt super comfortable allowing her care for Cali and be in our home. We were so happy to find a kind, friendly, professional and trustworthy person to take care of Cali. Also, I am a bit of a clean freak and I can tell you, that my house was left the same way I left it….looked like she was never there, spotless! We were also having bad storms while we were away, so I texted Michaela about a few outside things on our deck that needed to be taken care of and she made sure it was all taken care of as well. A breaker tripped while she stayed with Cali, so she texted us the issue and we were able to call her and help get it resolved. Like I said before very professional, caring and kind. Her communication and dedication of care not only for our dog but our home was truly amazing. We will definitely be using Michaela’s services again and highly recommend.”
“Jenni was great with our 5 dogs. She would updates and pictures every day. Even got a video. Everything went smoothly. We will definitely use them again. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jessica did a fantastic job staying with my dogs while we were out of town. She was very thoughtful and regularly sent updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Rebecca was amazing! We really appreciate all her attention to our kitties. She sent pictures and communicated periodically with status of both of our cats. She did a great job! We strongly recommend her services!”

About: Hi, I’m Tara! I work full time on an early day shift, which leaves me available afternoons and evenings for some drop in visits, walks, and pet care. If you have any questions about my availability or scheduling, don’t hesitate to reach out. I understand that life (and pets!) can be unpredictable. I’ve lived with dogs my entire life and currently have one of my own. My experience spans every stage of life, from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs needing a little extra patience and specialized care. Whether your dog is happiest curled up on the couch or thrives with an active lifestyle, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m experienced with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities, including reactive dogs. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe and understood, and I always prioritize respecting their boundaries while keeping everyone involved safe. In addition to everyday pet care, I have experience with: * Senior dogs with mobility challenges * Medication administration * Canine insulin injections * Canine allergy injections * Puppies and basic puppy care * High-energy and working dogs * Dog sports and active canine lifestyles As a full time Healthcare worker, I’m comfortable following medication schedules, handling medications safely, and paying close attention to detail. You can trust that your pet’s health and routine will be taken seriously. I know emergencies happen, and whenever my schedule allows, I’m happy to work with families who need last minute bathroom breaks or drop in visits. Whether your dog wants to explore the neighborhood, play until they’re tired, practice good manners, or simply enjoy some company and cuddles, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! I understand that unexpected situations happen, so when my schedule allows, I’m happy to help with last-minute drop-in visits or bathroom breaks. I do my best to be flexible while making sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I work full-time on an early day shift, which allows me to provide pet care during the afternoons and evenings throughout the week. I’m also available some weekends and can often accommodate additional visits with advance notice. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality, preferences, and any special instructions before each visit. During drop-in visits and walks, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, receives any requested meals or medications, gets plenty of exercise or enrichment. I have experience working with reactive dogs and always prioritize safe handling, respecting their boundaries, and avoiding situations that could cause unnecessary stress. With my background in healthcare, I’m also comfortable administering medications, including insulin and allergy injections, while following instructions carefully and safely. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands while you’re away.
About: Hey! My name is Conan and Im a veterinary medicine student. I love working with animals of all types and sizes and I'd love to meet your friend! I have experience fostering and volunteering at animal shelters, including everything from dogs, cats, bottle-fed babies, elderly kitties, reptiles, ducks, chickens, special-needs dogs/cats, and birds. I have a few years of experience dog walking and I have house sat for people with all different pets & for varying amounts of time. I also have two cats (North age 8 & Marcel age 4) and a leopard gecko (Sandwich age 3) of my own! They are my best friends and whole world. I'm currently going to Vet school full time several days during the week, but I'm available Friday through Monday for bookings. When house sitting I can spend as much time as is needed in the home for walks, playtime, any cleanups, potty breaks, etc. But I do prefer to sleep in my own home because of my two cats who need me at night. However I am flexible and if your pet has a specific need or doesn't do well being alone certain times of day we can work to accomodate that. Your pet's safety is a non negotiable for me, it is so important to me that your pet feels comfortable with me no matter what we're doing. Establishing a bond with an animal can be the most rewarding experience in the world! When talking about safety with any pet, I take a precautious approach with anything that could become an 'oops!' or a 'hey you, get that out of your mouth!' moment. So I will always take precautions with anything being left out unmonitored like toys, food, anything chewable, stringy, or soft toys, etc. I never want to have to think twice about a preventable accident with your pet, so I always take the time to keep everyone safe. This goes especially for walks, your dog or cat's safety is always going to be at the front of my mind when interacting with any other furry friends nearby, as it is always better to be safe than sorry. Every pet needs a different relationship approach, and different play styles! There are some pets who just want to cuddle, ones who need specific play-styles to be interested, and others who need someone up to the task of frizbee-ing the Tasmanian Devil out of them! I know personally one of my cats only wants to lazily swat at one specific toy he keeps losing, and the other wants to run and leap around for 20 minutes straight. I am dedicated to learning what your pet really likes so they have a great time with me, and you can go to work, over a friends, or on vacation without a worry that they living their best life.
“The most amazing experience with Elisa!! She was incredibly awesome with our very shy 2 dogs. She was extremely patient to gain their trust (not easy to do BTW lol) to the point that they even slept with her after getting to know her- that is how good she is! We loved Elisa and definitely will be our -go to- from now on every time we need a doggy sitter. Our girls got a new bestie with Elisa!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Deepwater on Rover is $64.94 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 4,482 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Deepwater. 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 Deepwater 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 Deepwater 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 Deepwater 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.

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.
