This experience and Charlene exceeded my expectations. I hadn't used Rover before and was really nervous about leaving my home and loved pup in the care of someone else but I got lots of updates while I was away and when I got back, my dog dog was happy and relaxed. When I need a pet sitter again, I won't even hesitate to book Charlene.

Bridgette was wonderful to work with! She took excellent care of our dog and cat while we were away for the weekend. Our dog had an unexpected, last minute medication change the day before we left and Bridgette handled it with ease. She also sent frequent updates which we greatly appreciated. We are already rebooked for our next trip!

From Anika's first stroking of my cat's fur during our meet and greet, I could see that he felt comfortable with her. It was comforting to know that he would let her provide the love and cuddles we wouldn't be home to give him. Thank you, Anika for taking good care of our senior cat!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals has always been a normal part of my life. I grew up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of many ages and personalities, including energetic puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable with the routines that come with good pet care: consistent feeding schedules, exercise, basic training reinforcement, and paying attention to changes in behavior that might mean a dog needs something. I have experience helping with puppy training basics life patience during walks, reinforcing commands, and keeping them mentally stimulated. I also understand that senior dogs sometimes need gentler exercise, more frequent bathroom breaks, and extra patience. In addition to dogs, I have experience working with animals in a farm environment, which taught me responsibility, consistency, and how important it is to pay attention to an animal's needs and body language. Because of that background, I'm calm, reliable, and comfortable around animals with different temperaments. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they're my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I grew up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I enjoy spending time outdoors walking dogs, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to stay organized and consistent with feeding times, walks, and check-ins. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, and spending time with them is something I look forward to throughout the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a calm environment where they feel secure. In a client's home, I carefully follow the pet's normal routine for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime so they experience as little disruption as possible. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure pets are feeling safe and happy. I respect my clients' homes and keep spaces clean, secure doors and gates, and communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

This is my first time using a Rover and I’m actually glad I did. Tonya made me feel at ease knowing my kiddos are very well taken cared of. She gave me updates and sent me pictures of how my babies are doing. She kept my home clean which is very important to me as well. Knowing I can trust her not only with my precious babies and my home, made my trip so much easier. I will definitely recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again. Thank you so much Tonya 😊

About: I currently live in a home with four dogs, two horses, and two cats, so taking care of animals is part of my everyday life. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds like labs, heelers, terriers, and Pitbulls, Labs, Great Pyrenees, Shepards, heelers, terriers, pit bulls, and Mastiffs. With that, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’m very active, love taking my pups out on runs and hikes. Whether its playtime, feeding, cleaning up, or just giving them attention and company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I know every animal has a different personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I also have experience administering medication when needed, so I’m happy to follow any special care instructions. I have a flexible schedule and do my best to work around what your pet needs. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday potty break, evening visit, or overnight care, I’m happy to communicate and find a schedule that works for both of us. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll do my best to stick to their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of attention while you’re away. I understand life has obstacles and I’m very flexible to your needs, commitments, and changes! I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or just spending quality time with them. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and I’ll treat them with the same love I give my own animals. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m especially comfortable with large breeds and high-energy dogs, but I enjoy caring for pets of all sizes and personalities.

Donna was OUTSTANDING. She took such good care of our golden retrievers for the four days we were gone. She is a dog whisperer. They clearly felt her love. She was a fantastic communicator with us and an overall very kind person. I can’t say enough positive things about Donna! We hope to reserve her again.

About: I specialize in care for both cats and dogs for all your house sitting or dog walking needs, along with minimal experience for other pets both fluffy and scaly for 16 years. Ill do whatever i can to make this an un-frog-ettable experience for both you and your furry friends I currently have an open schedule, so I’ll have plenty of time to walk your pets in the morning and afternoons. Im also available all throughout the week to pop in and give your pets a visit or housesit. When house sitting for my client's, my top priorities are the absolute safety of your pets and the total security of your property. I have the knowledge and confidence to handle unexpected situations and keep your pets safe under my care. I will treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, following all house rules, and ensuring that no unauthorized guests ever enter the premises. Every time I step inside or leave, I double-check all window latches, door locks, and yard gates to maintain a secure environment. Before letting your pets out, I always inspect the yard boundaries for any potential escape routes or hazards. I make sure all human food, medications, and household chemicals are kept securely out of reach, and I strictly follow your preferences regarding crates, baby gates, or restricted rooms. Your pet's routine will remain completely consistent; I stick precisely to your established feeding, walking, to minimize stress. Finally, I always collect your preferred vet's information and emergency contacts beforehand, so I am fully prepared for any situation while you are away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Florence

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 4,419 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Florence. 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 Florence 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 Florence 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 Florence 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 Florence. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
