“I have a large working line GSD and a blue and gold macaw. Margot was responsive and was able to help me out with short notice. I have a senior dog so there are a lot of supplements and meds to keep up with and everything was just as I left it when I returned. She did an excellent job! I can tell by my dog's behavior when I return if I have a good sitter as he definitely shows stress. It was like I went to work and came home. No anxiety or stress for my pup! Thanks Margo!”
“Grim and Solaire were extremely well looked after and Cheyenne was very flexible with meeting us prior to sitting, following the cats routine (even despite the 4am wakeups) and keeping us updated during the stay. We will definitely be having Cheyenne cat sit for us again!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have had several pets throughout my life. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to my sweet 3month old baby and my two fur babies! 🩷 Being home allows me to dedicate plenty of time, love, and attention to the animals in my care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate them however I can. Whether your fur baby loves going for walks, playing, running around, or simply cuddling up and relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. As a pet mom myself, I know our animals are family, and I would treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own\. I’m happy to follow your feeding schedules, daily routines, and any special instructions to help keep your pet happy and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your fur baby is being cared for like one of my own\! 🐶❤️
“Rose was amazing! I'm always anxious about leaving Abby with a new person but after Rose did a meet and greet with her I had no reservations. Rose is very friendly and has a lovely, relaxed vibe and based on the regular update photos she sent me, Abby loved her! I will absolutely have Rose look after Abby again and would 100% recommend!”
“Danielle is just great! Reliable, dependable and so good with our big Lab. Lilly just loves Danielle which makes it easier when we leave, knowing that she is in such capable hands. Thank you so much!”
“Alyssa was so helpful! She stayed in my Home to care for my Golden Retriever. She responded to messages quickly and kept me informed. I look forward to having her stay again next time I travel.”
“Emily was fantastic! Our two dogs and our cat loved her. She stayed with our fur babies for five days and everything was great. She even left our home tidier than we had! I highly recommend her!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+++ animal care provider. We absolutely loved Louren and the care that she provided for our pups. She came and stayed in our home. She treated our home and our dogs like they were her own. I highly recommend her to care for pets wants and needs. She even fed our fish for us. I cannot say enough good things about her. She is fabulous. She responds quickly to texts. She sends you videos of your animals and she follows the instructions that you provide for her to the T. Give her a try! You will not be disappointed!!!”
“Allison was absolutely wonderful with our dogs during her overnight stay. From the moment she arrived, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. She gave them so much love and attention, kept us updated with pictures and messages, and made sure their routines were followed perfectly. When we got home, our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The house was also spotless, and she took the initiative to prepare the next day’s treats and other housekeeping! We couldn’t ask for a better sitter — responsible, kind, and truly trustworthy. We will definitely be booking Allison again!”
“Isabelle is a great sitter! She arrived very prepared for the stay and asked a lot of questions to make sure my dog got the best care while she was here. During the stay she was very easy to reach and provided great updates with how my dog was doing.”
About: Though I do not have a yard, I do understand the importance of daily activity (especially for dogs) and in regards to that, I live in close proximity to two dog parks. Growing up around different animals, I’ve grown fond, familiar, and comfortable with caring for different species (from rodents to felines and canines and pretty much anything in between). I am looking to make extra money and gain experience with different breeds of animals, as I am planning to embark on a journey into veterinary school. I love all animals and believe wholly in treating and caring for them correctly. I’ve had cats, dogs, rodents (gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs) , ferrets, birds, reptiles (leopard geckos and turtles), and rabbits just to name a few. I’m always willing to go the extra mile for an animal (whether it’s my pet or not) and I get along with practically any animal and fully believe in building a strong bond with pets.
About: I've been animal sitting since I was very young, have never had a home without a pet, have raised, trained, sat, and taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have been relied on for years by friends, family, neighbors, local community members, colleagues, and even friends of friends to care for and watch over their fur babies. I have even been flown out of state to watch over pets of a employer because of how much trust they had in me. I sent frequent photos and updates so you never have to worry about how your pet is doing! I currently work as a Door Dash delivery driver so I choose my hours and will not take any orders if I have a pet in my care, I can stay home and put all my focus on taking care of your pet 24/7! I have a large bathroom and crate if you prefer your dog in a more controlled environment, I have a large side yard and plenty of nearby dog parks and a very safe sidewalk for longer walks and running and playing.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, Rabbits, sugar gliders. Young, old, special needs. I do it all. I believe pets are like children, they love to learn. I am recently retired so I can devote as much time as needed for your furry ( not so furry) babies. A lot of love to give. I prefer to sit in the clients home as I feel the pet will be less nervous or anxious in familiar surroundings. I like the pet to get to know me in their own time. Trust is earned.
About: Hi there! I’m Elise, A passionate animal lover and a recent college graduate. I have the joy and privilege of sharing my life with six wonderful pets: two playful dogs and four affectionate cats. These beloved companions have taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and attentive care. I recently graduated with a degree in Business, but my true passion has always been caring for animals. Throughout my college years, I balanced a full course load with my dedication to my furry family, ensuring they always received the love, attention, and care they deserved. During summer breaks, I also took on pet-sitting responsibilities, further deepening my experience and love for animal care. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for them. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a game of fetch, or a cozy cuddle session, I am here to ensure your pets are happy and well-cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! Best, Elise Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. With six animals at home, each with their own unique needs, I have developed a comprehensive and structured approach to ensure they receive the best care possible. My pets have varied routines throughout the day, including different feeding schedules and specific dietary requirements. I meticulously manage these schedules to ensure each pet gets the appropriate type and amount of food. Additionally, I have experience administering medication, as one of my cats requires daily medication for a heart condition. This level of detailed and attentive care has equipped me with the skills and dedication necessary to provide exceptional care for your pets as well. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, involves a comprehensive and attentive approach tailored to each pet's unique needs. In my home, I maintain a structured routine for my six animals, which includes different feeding schedules, dietary requirements, and regular exercise.

“Aaliyah was absolutely fabulous with my 3 month old puppy. She stayed the entire time during my house sit and sent lots of update pictures to ease my nerves of leaving him for the first time. I strongly recommend Aaliyah and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“If I could give Lisa 100 stars, I absolutely would! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lisa! She went above and beyond taking care of my dogs. I’ll be honest, I was extremely nervous about allowing someone I didn’t know into my home because you truly never know what you’re going to get. But with Lisa, you get EVERYTHING and then some! She kept me updated every single day with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. And let me tell you, she didn’t just take care of my dogs, she SPOILED them! It was so comforting knowing they were being loved and cared for just as they would be if I were home. Lisa truly exceeded every expectation I had. Finding someone you can trust with your home and your fur babies is priceless, and I feel so fortunate to have found her. Lisa, you’re 100 stars in my book! I will absolutely be using you over and over again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like they’re her own, look no further. Lisa is the one!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hailey did an amazing job caring for our home and pets while we were away for four days and three nights. From the start, she was professional, dependable, and easy to communicate with, which gave us great peace of mind during our trip. Our pets were clearly well cared for and received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Hailey kept us updated while we were away, and it was reassuring to know everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, our pets were happy and relaxed, and our house was clean, secure, and well maintained. Hailey went above and beyond our expectations and treated both our home and pets as if they were her own. Her rates were very fair, especially considering the outstanding level of care and service she provided. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring house and pet sitter. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Hailey!”
About: I have over 30 years of personal experience owning dogs, having almost 4 at once on my family's country farm growing up. Since I was a toddler I've had an easy connection with dogs that allows me to make fury friends easly.

I'm otherwise free otherwise all day on Monday and Thursday I pay extra attention to wants and needs while ensuring food and water are always available. I keep pets in the designated area unless otherwise allowed. I would prefer to sit at your house on camera if possible as I do have 2 dogs at home that are friendly but want to make sure there is ample room for everyone.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Florida Ridge
Jayla, we are so grateful we found you to care for our dogs on our trip away. You took not only such good care of them but also of our home. When we returned the house was neat and clean and the dogs were literally glowing. We are so happy we have found you and look forward to having you house and dog sit for us again. We feel you became not only a friend to our pups but to us as well. Please reach out for anything! Thank you again so much!
This was our second booking with Reva, and all the furry ones were spoiled and happy. Reva communicated with me during both booking and always sends plenty of pictures (so I can see the shenanigans the dog and cats try to pull). I definitely recommend Reva to care for your pets
Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! She stayed overnight for 4 days at my home to care for my two dogs, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they weren’t alone. That meant everything to me. She was incredibly responsive, always on time, and kept me updated, which made the whole experience stress free. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back. I would 100 percent recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. She’s a great choice!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Florida Ridge is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $87 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 November 2026, there are 528 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Florida Ridge. 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 Florida Ridge 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 Florida Ridge 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 Florida Ridge 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Florida Ridge. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
