“My dog had a great time with Imani and the house was well taken care of. She was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures, which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Victoria did such an amazing job watching our dog and house sitting for an extended weekend. She was extremely communicative and friendly. She went above and beyond in taking excellent care of our dog and our home. We would love to hire her again and strongly recommend!”
“Sarah was fantastic! She was very communicative while I was away and sent lots of pictures and updates which I appreciated. Both of my fur babies were happy when I got home and I could see they had been extremely well taken care of. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Our dogs had such a good time with Scott that they were actually sad to see him go when we returned from our trip! I am sure they will be elated next time they see him. Scott is easygoing, communicative, and has our full trust. We're so glad to have found Scott and know our pups are in good hands with him!”
“Elizabeth house sat our two boy cats Finn and Fitz over the Christmas break and was absolutely wonderful! We got amazing pictures and updates that made us feel at ease while we were away. Before Elizabeth left she went above and beyond and cleaned practically our whole house which was very sweet and appreciated. I would definitely recommend her and hope to use her in the future!”
“Bethany is amazing with our dog. She took extra good care of her, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was able to administer meds as needed. I feel like she went above and beyond to make sure our dog was well loved while we were away and we will definitely book her again for house sitting! We already use her for weekly walks and felt very comfortable having her stay while we were away.”
“We couldn’t recommend Debbie enough!!!! She was (miraculously) available fairly last minute for our trip and from the word go, she was top notch! Our home and puppy Philomena were so well cared for while we were away. Debbie sent us plenty (but not too many) of snapshots and occasional videos of Phil living her best life while we were away. Thank you Debbie for being Phil’s new friend and we can’t wait to have you back again!. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, ‘no notes’ as the saying goes. 🥰.”
“Daniel was great - excellent communication and great with the pups. One of our pups took an instant liking to him and was asking for belly rubs during the meet and greet. We hired him to house sit during our wedding weekend and he even walked the dogs up to our wedding venue so we could take pictures with them on the day.”
“We are so lucky to have found Crystal. She is responsive, reliable, and goes beyond the minimum to ensure your pets are safe and happy. Our pups love her!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, puppies, senior dogs, cats, horses, turtles, and guinea pigs. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy who needs patience and consistency, or providing gentle, attentive care for a senior dog with a slower pace, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and will care for your pets as if they were my own! When I’m not at the barn riding horses, I love spending my downtime outdoors, especially taking walks after work to unwind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. While I’d love to have a dog of my own someday, I’m not in a position to right now, so I cherish every opportunity to spend time with furry friends. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m always happy to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Monday and Friday evenings work best for me, and my weekend availability depends on what I have planned. That said, I’m flexible and will do my best to make my schedule work whenever possible! For dog walks, I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh water afterward if needed, and lots of love and attention along the way. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have, whether that’s avoiding certain routes, reinforcing training, administering simple care like wiping paws, or giving treats with your permission. My goal is to make every walk fun, safe, and stress-free while treating your dog like they’re my own.
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”
“We hired Brendan to stay at our house for our week long trip to watch our Orange Tabby, Popsicle. We had a list of things we wanted him to do on a daily basis for Popsicle and he was diligent in following that list. We received a morning and evening photo and corresponding with Brendan was very easy. Brendan cares deeply for being on time and being responsible and was certainly a professional pet sitter for our cat who we love so much.”
“Heather was an excellent care provider for my cat! She made sure he was fed. She cleaned the litter box and she even cleaned up throw up. My cat gets sick a lot. She was a big help to me. I highly recommend her. I would love to have her again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of doggies most of my entire life. I’m experienced, quick on my feet and energetic. I have a large, grassy backyard with a privacy fence, so your pup has freedom to run around as much as he or she wants! Excited to meet your little fur baby! I work from home so I have the flexibility to go out and walk or play with your pup! I’m free all weekends as well. I have my own doggie who is friendly, energetic and loves to play. He gets along with everyone. My house has a big backyard with a fence so the dogs are free to run around as much as they’d like. I also have a portable fence for inside the house if needed.
About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals! I've been a pet and house sitter for friends and family for over a decade, and I'll show the same care for your pet and space that you do! I work evenings so I would have availability in the morning and early afternoon. I would also be available for pet care full time on the weekends. I will always make sure your pet gets the full attention and care they deserve! Your home will be left just as clean as I found it, and I will treat it with respect.
About: Hi! My name is Brittany, I’m 34 years old and I’ve been around dogs my entire life, caring for them has always come naturally to me. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, I understand that every dog has their own unique personalities and needs. I recently said goodbye to my beloved Shih Tzu after many wonderful years together, and while I miss having a dog of my own every day, it reminded me just how much joy I get from spending time with them. After more than 14 years in the service industry, I’ve developed a strong sense of reliability, attentiveness, and communication, and my new job with shorter shifts gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own. My flexible work schedule allows me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and giving pets the attention and companionship they deserve. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for your pet feels less like a task and more like something I genuinely love doing. Whether it’s maintaining their normal routine, providing extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company while you’re away, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, or extra attention and patience. I recently cared for my own Shih Tzu through health challenges, which gave me experience with administering medications, being attentive to changing needs, and providing extra love and patience for a pet who needed it most. I understand that your home is your pet’s safe space, and I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care I would my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I am a 24 year old college kid studying Disaster Management. I love animals and have been around them my whole life. Big dogs are my fave but who do not like cuddling with a lap dog?? I can walk your dog feed them. What ever you need with your dogs I can provide. I have one dog at home his name is Murphy!!! He is a 75 lb golden doodle, ball of fur. He loves other dogs and loves to play. Because of that your dog will never get bored even if I have to leave the house to go do something. I also love walking dogs! Since I could walk I have been walking dogs! I am working part time but I build my own schedule. I always take my dogs on walks every day. Or let them play in my large fenced in backyard I have a large fenced yard for the dogs to play in. There is never a need to worry when I am watching your dog.
About: Ask anyone who knows me, i'm the ultimate dog-lover! In 2018, I became a professional pet care provider with Eola Pets in Orlando, FL. I have provided any sort of care to any sort of animal you can think of. From long, energy focused walks to short potty breaks, administering oral medication or injecting insulin, training 6 month old puppies or being a companion for our senior friends. Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, snakes, reptiles, fish. I have experienced it all and would love to help care for your creature! I work from home M-F, so I’m able to adjust my schedule to your needs! We do three 15/20 minute walks between 8am-5pm then an, at least, one hour walk in the evening or a few hours at the dog park with our other dog friends! I can be as flexible or as strict to a schedule as you need! Every dog that crosses my path is treated like family and gets the ultimate care package when with me. I have a seven year old husky who loves making friends! We do plenty of walks around our neighborhood so there’s lots of opportunity for socialization training and even a neighborhood dog park, if you approve! There will always be supervision in the home. If needed, my dog can be crated or kept separate.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Deer Park
Megan and Lee did an outstanding job sitting with our two goofy girls for a 9 day period. Communication was excellent and timely. They took care of the house as well while we were away and went well beyond our expectations. We’ll definitely use again if they’re available and highly recommend them to others. Thank you Megan and Lee!
David was professional and easy to talk to. He sent us pictures about once a day so we could see his bonding with the animals. It was a relief to know they were well cared for. He also stayed overnights with them for the three day duration. The house condition when we returned was as if we never left. We will be using David again in the future.
Anna was great! Will absolutely be booking again. My two dogs were happy to see me when i got home, but not too happy-- that's how i can tell they got lots of attention and play time. Anna was conscientious and responsible, it was clear the dogs were fed, happy, and loved. And i think my house looked better than how i left it. It was obvious from the meet and greet that Anna is smart, mature, and takes dog care seriously. Can 100% recommend!
Tarani is beyond excellent with our 3 dogs. We feel confident and relaxed when we go out of town knowing she is staying over with them. They have gotten to know her very well, and miss her when she’s gone. Tarani knows how to deal with difficult situations- our one dog forced her way through our fence to escape and join Tarani and our other dog on a walk. Tarani remains calm and gets everyone to safety. Thank you!!! She’s also determined, even though Lucy refuses to go on walks, she still tries daily to see if she has changed her mind; I know one day Lucy will agree to go! 😅 Tarani we are so lucky that you agree to watch our pets. Thank you!
Daniel was great - excellent communication and great with the pups. One of our pups took an instant liking to him and was asking for belly rubs during the meet and greet. We hired him to house sit during our wedding weekend and he even walked the dogs up to our wedding venue so we could take pictures with them on the day.
Joseph was superb and stayed in constant communication with me and took wonderful care of my German Shepherd (Zak). Zak has some anxiety issues and was nippy on Joseph's first day but he worked through it and rapidly gained Zaks trust and affection I will be coming back for sure on my next trip

FAQs for House Sitting - Deer Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Deer Park is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,372 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
