“Kenzie went above and beyond! She took care of our pup like she was her own. She was even kind enough to add on my mom’s dog last minute for the check ins. She spent so much time caring and loving on them. We came home to happier dogs then when we had left.”
“Did great with our cat while away and leaving a new apt in move in shambles. Spent time with kitty and did what was asked. Not much more to say, will rebook in the future”
“Ting did a great job taking care of Baxter. Very responsible and followed the instructions I left her. She respond in such short notice and ended up coming 2 days straight to check on Bax. I will use her services again in the future.”
“Katie was wonderful with my cats. One of them is very timid and scared of new people and Katie went out of her way to make him feel comfortable. She was very good with communication throughout the process and I will definitely be asking her to watch th again!”
“Melanie was wonderful. She arrived on time and made sure to send updates and photos through the app. My dogs were happy when we got home, like we had not even been away. She even let us know the temp in the house had changed in comparison to her earlier visit and caught a potentially dangerous situation. We were able to get it repaired and get the house cooled back off before dinner time. We are grateful for her mindfulness while caring for our dogs. We will definitely book her again to look after our pets while away.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10; anywhere from pet sitting to having pets of my own. I kept cats well brushed, watered, and their litter boxes/area clean and dogs well cared for by going for walks, playtime, nap time, brushing teeth, and bathing. I currently work a flexible job from home so pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I am typically available everyday except I am away for several hours on Sundays. I may be able to board/home sit/ walk your pet on Sundays, they would just be alone for several hours until I get home. I have two indoor cats who are happy as long as they have a clean litter box and bathroom/food area, water to drink out of a faucet, brushed clean fur, and a quiet place to sleep. Heath will most likely play with your kitty once he gets more comfortable and Lucky will most likely ignore your cat. I also have a 2 year old goldendoodle who loves to meet new people and dogs. When I am not entertaining your dog, Winston sure will be if they want him to. If your dog is uninterested, Winston knows to leave him/her be.
“Maricel is great! From the initial communication to the intro visit to the actual booking, Maricel was pleasant, timely and very mindful of what our dogs need and what we asked. Our dogs were so well cared for during this multi-day, multi-visit, booking. Thank you Maricel!”
About: I’m a reliable pet sitter with experience caring for dogs, including administering medication. As an animal lover and cat mama, I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I work 7:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, so I’m generally available in the evenings and on weekends for pet care and drop-ins. Boarding will be case-by-case, and I may add house sitting depending on the work I get in the beginning. I’d love to meet you and your pets and see if we’re a good fit! I work full-time during the week, so I’m typically available for pet care in the evenings Monday through Friday. My weekends are generally wide open, giving me plenty of flexibility for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, or extended care. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood with great walking areas and plenty of space in my home. My two cats can be comfortably separated if needed, so visiting pets can have their own calm, secure space. I also keep a clean, tidy home and will make sure your pet’s environment stays comfortable, peaceful, and suited to their routine.
“Amanda was an outstanding dog sitter for Dixie! She took excellent care of all of Dixie’s needs and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well looked after the entire time. Amanda sent photos every day and kept me updated on how Dixie’s day was going, which gave me so much peace of mind. Overall it was a great experience—highly recommend Amanda if you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter!”
About: Genuine love for all animals. I understand like humans, each dog is different and the most important thing I can do is make them comfortable being around me. Gaining their trust is what its all about. Being retired, I am able to set aside my daily routine for any special needs of your pet as it comes up. In most events, I can get to your house on short notice without delay. I have two dogs, a Golden Retriever and an Australian Kelpie. Both are juveniles that know the whole world revolves around them, which of course I accommodate.
About: Caring for animals has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had pets my entire life and understand how much they mean to their families. I’m comfortable caring for cats and dogs and always make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. In my local community, I also help care for feral cats by feeding them and humanely trapping them so they can be neutered. This helps keep the population under control and improves their quality of life. It’s something I care deeply about and it reflects how much I value animal welfare. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company while you’re away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently retired, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m available most days and times unless I’m already booked, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to accommodate feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins that match your pet’s normal routine. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow the routines and instructions provided by each owner so pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I take time to build trust with each pet and pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I make sure they have fresh water, proper feeding, exercise, and lots of attention. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they are part of my own family. 🐾
“I cannot say enough good things about these 2. They go above and beyond to make sure your animal is well taken care of. I would highly recommend them as your first choice to take care of your animal!”
“Justine D. did a super great job! We are so pleased and happy to have had her, she cared for our cats water, food, and litter and gave them extra love and attention, definitely will have her again. It's a good feeling when out of town to not worry about our pets, they were well taken care of with Justine.”

About: I have cared for animals my entire life. I was raised in a zoo and can help with your furry or scaled extended family. I’m a full time high school teacher who would like to help others this Summer. I look forward to meeting you and your loved one(s) soon! I am a local High School teacher and will be out of school June 1-July 31 and would like to help out my neighbors with their pets while I have the time. I am a responsible person who will treat your precious beings and home with loving care and respect. I take my job seriously as my cat and dog mean the world to me, and I would only trust them with someone who would love them as their own. I can provide this for yours, too!
About: I’ve taken care of many different dog breeds all sizes and ages. Whether for my family members or neighbors I would be the first person they called to watch their animals since I was probably 10 years old. I’ve also raised my own GSD the past 3 years and he’s the best boy! I am going to be going to school three days a week and it will take up most of my day so I can still swing in early in the morning on those days if needed. The other 4 days I am trying to fill with playful pups and cuddly kitties! I care for pets in my home like they’re my own. Pups eat twice a day and get to play with toys out back in the fenced in yard and go for walks. In someone else’s home I will make sure the animals have food and water and get to have a chance to go outside if needed or clean the litter box. Leaving the house always requires a leash if not fenced in and if I have treats on hand I try to reward good behavior as much as possible!
“Phenomenal cat sitter. One of my cats, Midna, just immediately fell in love with Kim during the initial meeting, and Midna is usually the cat who sets the tone for the rest of the cats. Kim went above and beyond for them and was always sweet about it. 10/10, would hire again.”

The average cost of Pet Sitting in DeLand is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $23 per visit. 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 3,790 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across DeLand. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

- 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
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.
