“Tracy was a great dog and house sitter. She kept me updated on a regular basis, and I felt like our pup was in good hands. Really appreciate the peace of mind while we had to be away.”
“Jennifer was great! Very responsive and loving to our five month old mini schnauzer! She also took great care of our condo and even did some extras we asked. Could not recommend her highly enough as she did great with our baby who is a very active social puppy!”
“Brian has been the best sitter we've found so far. He house sat for us while we were out of town. He was very honest and communicative. We're hoping to book him again for our next trip out of town.”
“Courtney was the perfect sitter for our 5 month old husky puppy. We knew our pup would need a lot of work and care (including medication) while we were gone for the weekend, and Courtney exceeded our expectations in every way. She was extremely communicative and constantly sent updates. Our pup absolutely loved her and was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using Courtney again!”
“Brittany watched our two dogs and our house while we traveled abroad and she was excellent with our dogs and kept us updated throughout our travels. I highly recommend her.”

I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keeping the environment calm, clean, and consistent to reduce stress.

“This is the 2nd time Alyssah has watched Miles and we always come home to a clean home and a happy dog!! Thanks again for all your help!! We appreciate it and will definitely use her again!”
About: Ever since I was a little kid I had a ton of pets from dogs to hamsters and lizards. As soon as I had my first dog I have dreamed of having a career that involved animals. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals. I am also able to come to your home whether it's for walking or drop in potty visits. I am planning on going to college in the future which makes me able to work long hours if needed. If you have a fenced yard I'll gladly throw toys around and play with your pet and if there isn't a fence I would love to leash them and go on a walk. I can let them out if they are in crates and am comfortable working in your house if you are out of town.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years and have always had a passion for pets. I’ve owned two dogs and currently have two cats, so I understand the love, patience, and responsibility that come with caring for animals every day. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets by feeding them, giving fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I know that every pet has a different personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel happy and cared for. Whether your pet loves to play, go on walks, or just wants someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, dependable hands. I’m currently a student at the University of Central Florida and attend classes in person two days a week. I also work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to care for pets throughout the day. I live in New Smyrna Beach and can provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pet like one of my own. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Kayla is amazing! Super sweet, good communicator & trustworthy. We felt really comfortable with her staying in our home with our 3 kids. Would recommend & hope to book again in the future! And thank you for being available pretty much last minute :)”
About: I’ve cared for all animals big and small my entire life, people reach out to me when an injured animal is found and needs help as well. I currently work part time and can care for your animals needs day or night. I have a very open schedule for your pets needs I would be happy to visit your home anytime to take care of your animals needs also available to take them places if needed !
About: For your pet-sitting profile, I’d make it warm, trustworthy, and highlight your experience. Since you have 3 years of pet care experience, you could use: Headline ideas: * 🐾 Experienced & Loving Pet Sitter You Can Trust * Caring Pet Sitter With 5+ Years of Experience * Your Pets’ New Favorite Sitter 🐶🐱 * Reliable, Loving & Experienced Pet Care For the Pet care experience section, I’d recommend something like: I have 3 years of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including dogs, cats, puppies, and senior pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m generally available in the mornings, late afternoons, and evenings for check-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available to board pets in my home, which has a large fenced-in backyard. I do however have a friendly six-year-old dog. I do require that all pets boarding in my home are housebroken. I’m also more than happy to care for pets in their own home and can provide overnight house sitting, regular check-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I am a cat grandma currently (aka Grannie Annie), but I have had many furry babies of my own over the years. I am very trustworthy and look forward to caring for your furry family as if they are my own. I am currently home full time (remote) and can easily care for your furry baby or babies in your home where they are most comfortable or provide daycare in my home (no overnights). I am available for feedings, potty and play time! If they are able walks and play time will definitely be part of our routine. I encourage you to let me know what they love and don't love so I can easily adapt to their routine! My main goal as a Rover Sitter is to give you peace of mind knowing that your pet is receiving the best care while you are on vacation or while you are at work! That means daily pictures (and occasionally videos) of your pet playing, relaxing, and having the best time! I am passionate about what I do, and I love keeping you updated with pictures and videos of the fun activities that your friend participates in while they are in my care.
“Jacklynn was great with our dogs! She stayed at our house with them while she juggled work and school. It was exactly what we were looking for since they had never been left alone and we really didn't want to put them in a kennel. She was great at communicating and keeping us informed which really helped put us at ease while we were away!”
About: I have always taken care of my dog when my family goes on vacays and also have dog sat for my neighbors and my cousin! I currently work part time so i’ll be available before/after work and on weekends as well. my shifts are typically only 4 hours so they won’t be alone for long! I always make sure they have lots of play time and make sure they are well taken care of. I love all pets like they are my own!
About: With years of experience volunteering for the Orange County animal shelter, helping neighbors by walking their pets & caring for my own puppy for many years I’m currently in online school with a flexible schedule so I am very flexible on times and am willing to work around different schedules and needs. I am dedicated to making the pet owner feel comfortable and will assure tasks are done with the safety and happiness of your pet in mind.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had and cared for my own dogs for as long as I can remember, including my two dogs at home who are truly part of the family. I also regularly pet sit for a family about twice a year, so I’m comfortable taking on the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pets and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely see pet sitting as a passion, not just a job. I absolutely love animals and would be so excited to spend my time getting to know their personalities, keeping them company, playing with them, and giving them all the attention and care they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your babies, and I would treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. 🐾🤍 My promise is to always be attentive, dependable, patient, and loving, while making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for. Getting to work with animals is honestly a dream for me, and I would be so grateful for the opportunity to love on your fur babies! 🫶 I recently moved back to the Daytona Beach area and am currently a full-time college student, but all of my classes are online, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m not working a job right now, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Since my schoolwork can be done from home and I can plan my schedule around my responsibilities, I’m able to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and spending quality time with your pets. I love having animals around and would genuinely enjoy making pet care a regular part of my week! 🐾🤍 Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in their home, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions their owner provides. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and make sure everything stays clean and just the way they left it. I’ll keep up with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and cuddles! 🐾🤍 I also understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow whatever routine helps them feel most comfortable. My goal is for your pets to feel like they’re getting their normal routine and lots of love while you’re away, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for. 🫶

We had a fantastic experience with Rob! He was incredibly attentive and gentle with our dogs, making sure they felt completely safe and loved while we were away. On top of the excellent pet care, he kept our house spotless. We couldn't be happier and will definitely be using his services again! Thanks again! :)
Jennifer was great! Very responsive and loving to our five month old mini schnauzer! She also took great care of our condo and even did some extras we asked. Could not recommend her highly enough as she did great with our baby who is a very active social puppy!
I HIGHLY recommend Sunny for your pets….and not just your dogs! Sunny watched over our two cats while on a Monday to Friday family trip to Aruba. Not only were they beautifully cared for, but she send photos and updates and made sure we made it home on arrival back! She left our house in perfect shape and I could not have asked for a better person to care for them! If you are looking for a pet sitter that is the best, you’ve found her! Thanks Sunny and Rover!
Paige was amazing! She responded promptly to my initial inquiry and continued to be extremely helpful and patient throughout the booking process, the actual dog sitting, and even afterward. She is professional and passionate. She clearly LOVES animals and is very sweet and attentive to them. Our lab puppies had a blast with her. She sent us pics and videos so we’d be updated. I have nothing negative to say about Paige. She gave us total peace of mind for our day away from our pups, and we are very grateful.

The average cost of House Sitting in Edgewater is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $69 per night.

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 752 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edgewater. 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 Edgewater 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 Edgewater 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 Edgewater 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.
