“Emma was great & looked after Ruby really well, kept me updated & was very flexible, was able to accommodate me when my flight was cancelled & stayed with Ruby, which put my mind at ease. Will definitely use Emma again!”


“Shayla was absolutely fantastic! She was very open and friendly during our meet and greet; was able to tell my dog loved her immediately! I felt comfortable and informed the whole time I was away. Lots of pictures sent to me of my dog was so sweet to receive! I will definitely be booking with Shayla again! Thanks for taking the BEST care of Sasha 💕”

About: I treat every pet with deep patience, gentleness, and genuine love. Animals naturally feel calm and safe around me, especially sensitive or anxious pets. I pay close attention to their emotions, routines, and comfort, creating a peaceful environment where they feel truly cared for like family… Animals have always been a deeply important part of my life and bring me a sense of peace, connection, and joy. As a photographer and creative person, I am naturally attentive, patient, and sensitive to emotions and details, which helps animals feel safe and understood around me. At home and in my clients’ homes, I care for animals with patience, gentleness, and full attention to their needs and emotions. I create a calm and peaceful environment, respect their routines and personalities, and make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and never stressed…
About: I have helped friends and family take care of their house, plants, and pets. They say I can be trusted when they are out of town to make sure everything is taken care of. I am free this summer and I would love to spend it taking care of your pets/home needs. I am reliable and trustworthy when it comes to taking care of things. I am very responsive to texts/calls. If there are any warning signs of an emergency or health issue, I let people know immediately and I try to take quick action.
About: I am a seasoned dog & cat owner myself, I have had 3 golden retrievers as well as a few smaller dogs as well. I have a true passion for animals, I love them all and will treat them like my own! I work part time, have a very open schedule & have a dog of my own. I’m used to caring for animals daily and I truly enjoy it all 🐾 I have an extremely friendly golden retriever in the home, two huge fenced in dog parks for tons of fun & I have all dog necessities including a crate if necessary.
“Lilly was such a pleasure to have! We hired her because of her excellent reviews and full background check. We have two rescue dogs so kenneling them is not an option! We decided to have a pet sitter come to our home and stay here. Lilly asked all the pertinent questions and handled everything at our home with no issues. We have two dogs (93 lb lab and a 49 lb beagle mix) and a parakeet. The house was left neat and clean! I highly recommend her!”

“Ruth was great with Milo. Ruth was very communicative and sent photos during their visit. All was well with Milo and the house when we returned (she even changed the sheets so we didn't have to deal with that when we got home from our trip). We will definitely use Ruth again.”

About: I've had animals my whole life and love taking care of them. Friends and family often reach out for boarding, pet sitting and daycare. My genuine care for animals should give you guilt free feelings when leaving your babies in my care. I currently work from home which makes caring for your pet easier if you choose to bring them here. If not, my hours are 8-5 weekdays but free all day on the weekends. I currently have a pet free home and I also have a fenced yard. Happy to travel and stay at your home if your animal is more comfortable there.
About: Over the past four years, I’ve cared for dozens of dogs and cats for friends and family—walking, feeding, playing, and giving them love while their people were away. What started as doing favors turned into something I genuinely enjoy and feel confident doing, so I thought… why not finally offer it professionally? While I’ve never had a pet of my own (yet!), I treat every animal I care for like they’re family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re gone. I’m attentive, gentle, and great at reading an animal’s vibe—whether they want playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm nearby. I’d love to meet your furry companion and be someone you can count on. Let’s chat about how I can help! I currently work part-time most of my work days are during the weekend so throughout the week I am home all day pretty much every day! I am to make sure I learn the routines of each of my clients and ensure that the pets feel like they are at home!
“Claudette was outstanding! We couldn’t have had a better experience with her. She communicated regularly throughout the day and took perfect care of our two dogs, sending pics and videos every day. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve had a dog all my life. My senior yorkie passed away last year after 18 years and I would love a dog back in the house to keep me company while I’m working from home. Experience with senior dogs including giving medicine, shots, and diaper care. Dog can be crated if needed. I work from home Monday through Friday and will be available to walk dogs throughout the day. Available select weekends. Drop off and pickup at your leisure. Located between big bend rd and sun city center east of 301. Drop your pups off while heading out of town. When I take little breaks during work I love to show my furry guest lots of love. Sometimes they even like to work with me on my lap while I’m typing up reports. I have a back yard mostly fenced in but opens to a drainage area. I have a small gate to block off an area for smaller dogs but when outside dogs will never be alone and always on a leash. I also have a gate if you don’t want your four legged friend roaming around the house. I will abide by any scheduling or training requirements you tell me and follow any instructions to a T. I know leaving your best friend behind is hard enough and I want to put your mind at ease knowing your pet is in good hands and it’s one less thing for you to worry about.

“Pris stayed in constant contact through caring for our three senior dogs. She was great with them and truly cared for them like they were her own. We'll hire Pris again in a minute when needed. Very easy to work with and nearby so it was easy for all of us.”


About: Hi! I’m Madison, and I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, fish, frogs, and other small pets, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, so I make it my goal to give them the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 One of the best parts about pet sitting is that I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available most days, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Whether you’re planning a trip, need a last-minute sitter, or just want someone to check in on your pet, I’d be happy to help. I love spending time with animals and look forward to giving your pets lots of love, attention, and care!💓🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, love, and supervision while in my care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi! My name is Mckenzie I’m a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter who treats every pet like family. I specialize in personalized, one-on-one care, taking the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. From walks and playtime to feeding, medication routines, and lots of love, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ My Availability As a college student balancing classes with a part-time job, my weekday schedule is somewhat limited during the afternoon. While extended weekday afternoon stays during my school/work hours aren’t the best fit for my schedule, pop-in visits during the day are absolutely welcome for things like potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Overnight stays are also welcome, along with evening and weekend care. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific routine and find an arrangement that works well for everyone. 🐾 My Top Priorities When caring for your pets, my top priorities are safety, communication, and trust. I understand that inviting someone to care for your pets is a responsibility that requires confidence and peace of mind, and I take that responsibility seriously. Safety always comes first. I make sure pets are cared for according to their individual routines, environments, and needs while remaining attentive to potential risks or changes in behavior. Communication is essential to providing excellent care. I keep owners informed with timely updates and am proactive about communicating any questions, concerns, or changes I notice while they’re away. Most importantly, I strive to build trust with both pets and their owners. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect while following the instructions and routines provided by their family. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing that your pet is in caring, dependable hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Duette
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,473 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Duette. 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 Duette 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 Duette 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 Duette 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
