“Susanne is such a blessing! She was able to house sit with our 3 pups in a last minute time of need. We appreciate her very much! She is professional & respectful to say the least! 110% recommend!”
“Sarah has been incredible with our puppy. She always goes out of her way to fit Ares into her schedule, even when she already has other visits booked, which we truly appreciate. She takes him on multiple walks, keeps me updated throughout the day, and makes sure he gets plenty of exercise. We absolutely trust her with him and are so grateful for the care and attention she provides. 🩵”
“A very caring and reliable pet sitter. Laura has become a second mom to our Chloe. She consistently stayed in contact through our time away with updated pictures and info on their daily activities. It helps knowing that your “babies” are happy, healthy and with a genuine loving person while you are away. Thank you Laura!!!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Laura. She took amazing care of my cat, Saylor, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She spent quality time with Saylor, even brought her special gifts, and kept me updated every day with photos and videos. She’s incredibly communicative, trustworthy, and reliable. I also really appreciated that she left my home spotless. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and I could tell Saylor was happy and comfortable with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and dependable pet sitter! we are looking forward to more sits with Laura”
“As newcomers to the area, we were nervous about leaving our dogs with someone we didn’t know. Ashley put our minds at ease by sending regular updates and photos so we knew they were in great hands. When a few severe thunderstorms stressed one of our dogs, she reached out right away, asked all the right questions about how we normally would handle it and made sure our pup was as comfortable as possible. We appreciated her thoughtful communication and care she gave our dogs!”
About: For the past four years, I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, and fish, including pets that require medication, overnight stays, or a little extra love and attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and helping families feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they're away. As the proud pet parent of a Black Lab and a new kitten, I understand that our pets are family. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, care, and attention every step of the way. I work Monday through Friday as a teacher in Wesley Chapel, but my weekends are mostly free. I am available to drop in before and after work times typically around 7am and after 4:30pm to help with any drop in or over night needs. I currently provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through drop-in visits and overnight stays. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, where they can maintain their normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I also follow any specific instructions, including administering medications if needed, so your pet receives the personalized care they're used to.
“We are beyond grateful for Jayla! She took amazing care of our two Sphynx babies while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages every visit. Thank you!!”
“Danielle is absolutely amazing with our puppy, Ares! She takes such good care of him and strictly sticks to his established routine. She is reliable, attentive, and has good communication. Highly recommend!🐾”
About: I've cared for dogs & cats for 5 years through helping family, friends, neighbors, and my own pets. My experiencing includes feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning up after pets, and making sure pets feel safe while their owners are away. I understand the importance of reliable communication and will provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for walks & drop ins anytime, including evenings and weekends! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, provide plenty of attention, and ensure pets have fresh water and a safe environment.
About: Hi - I'm Sveta! I am a senior at NYU and I’ve been caring for pets my whole life! I had two dogs growing up - a Yorkie and a German Shepherd - and I also currently have a Tabby cat. My experiences have taught me how to care for pets of very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend quality time with their pets. I truly love all pets and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away 🐶💛 I’m currently a student at NYU, so while I do have classes throughout the week, they’re spread out in short portions of the day. I am home majority of the day so your pets are never left alone for long periods, and I’m able to give them plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day 😇! I live in a very safe, quiet high-rise apartment that’s wider than most NYC apartments, giving pets plenty of space to relax, play, and nap throughout the day! 🎾 The building is fully secure and pet-friendly, with a completely enclosed, fenced grassy area on the 30th floor where dogs can safely run around, get fresh air, and unwind. I’m also located near Bryant Park and the West Side Highway piers, which are perfect for walks and runs in beautiful, open spaces 🌞 The building is home to many other pet families, creating a friendly and welcoming environment where pets can socialize safely. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities!
“Jordan did an outstanding job with our furries. She was very punctual, she communicated very well and made sure that our 4 dogs were well cared for and loved while we were away. I would definitely recommend Jordan, and we will be reaching out to her for all of our future trips.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little girl. Whether it was the neighbor’s Pomeranian, my dads cat, our my friend’s Airedale Terrior, I have had the fortunate pleasure of being entrusted in the care of people’s furry loved ones for years. I am experienced in walking and feeding dogs of various age and sizes (including breeds considered aggressive), feeding, cleaning litter boxes for cats, as well administering medicine. I personally love being able to load up the canine(s) in my care into my car for a trip to Starbucks in pursuit of a pup-cup or a trip to the park. Whether it be dogs or cats, I pride myself on loving any furry friend in my care as well as sharing photos and videos so you know your loved one is in good hands. I am experienced in taking care of households with one four-legged friend or households with several. I also volunteered for 3 years at an exotic animal sanctuary, having worked around tigers, bears, and wolves (though I sincerely hope no one has a tiger at home 😂) I work from home full-time with the occasional need to go into the office for a few hours. My schedule is flexible and I can block out my calendar accordingly to meet pet care needs. My weekends are free and open for pet care. I will personally meet with you before you require pet services and adhere to any safety measures you require in your home. I will happily provide text updates and photos so you can see your pet is happy and healthy.
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover since I was a child, giving me a lifelong passion for caring for pets. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and safe. What Sets Me Apart What makes me different is my genuine love and dedication to every pet I care for. I treat each animal like family, paying close attention to their unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s providing extra comfort to senior dogs or ensuring medications are given properly, I focus on dependable, compassionate care you can trust. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a mom to a 2-month-old and a part-time student studying to become a medical assistant, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around both my responsibilities and the pets I care for. I’m already used to maintaining a consistent routine, which helps me stay organized and dependable for feedings, walks, playtime, and medication schedules. Caring for pets blends seamlessly into my week, and I make sure each pet gets the attention, love, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets in your own home by keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while making sure your home is respected and kept clean. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and can administer medications when needed, always making sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I stay attentive to any changes in behavior or health and keep you updated for peace of mind while you’re away.
“Denise was excellent taking care of my dog, Kent. She went above and beyond for me to ensure peace of mind while I was away. Her communication on how my dog is doing was great. Kent was excited to see her every time she came. Definitely be repeating business with Denise.”
About: I am currently a Dog Trainer at Petco! I have a strong passion for animals and approach pet care with love. I’ve cared for dogs of almost all breeds, sizes, and temperaments throughout the course of my life. Whether it’s maintaining their routine, going on walks, providing playtime/mental stimulation, or simply offering companionship, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Through caring for my own 14 year old girl, I know how to be attentive to special instructions like dietary needs or medications. While they're away, I make sure pet parents feel at ease by providing regular updates and photos. My goal is to create a stress-free, loving environment where dogs feel secure and well cared for. I work part time as a Dog Trainer for Petco Sunday, Thursday, and Saturday. Those days are blocked off, but I am completely free to help you with your doggo the rest of the week at any time! I will care for your dog the way I care for mine - with the highest sense of responsibility and accountability. I understand that these animals depend on me for sustenance, exercise, stimulation, and affection. That is why I follow instructions diligently and always work with passion.
“Carrie was great with my dog and took great care of him. All instructions for care were followed perfectly and I knew my dog was in safe hands. Carrie provided wonderful updates and photos the whole time I was away from my dog and it left me with great peace of mind. Thanks again for being wonderful with my dog, Carrie!”

We utilized Laura’s house sitting services and could not be happier! This was Laura’s first time with our 3 pups and she did a great job! Our busy pups were relaxed and happy when we came home! The house was left clean. She communicated well throughout the stay & sent lots of great pictures. 100% recommend Laura!
Lindsay did a great job house sitting over the weekend with our 3 pups. She kept them on their schedules. She spent time cuddling and exercising with them. We came home to happy relaxed pups and the house was as clean as we left it! We highly recommend Lindsay!

FAQs for House Sitting - Deer Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Deer Park on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 4,117 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Deer Park. 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 Deer Park 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 Deer Park 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 Deer Park 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 Deer Park. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
