“Ava stayed in our house to care for our elderly diabetic cat while my husband and I were out of town. She administered 2 injections and 2 pills per day, in addition to his regular care and feeding. She also played with him, brushed him, and gave us daily updates on how he was doing. It was wonderful to know our little guy was in good hands! We got home yesterday to a relaxed, well-cared for cat! I recommend Ava without hesitation, and I will definitely hire her again in the future when the need arises.”

“Chynna took great care of our doggo, home and garden! They were extremely easy to communicate with, sharing plenty of pictures and updates, and were actually able to get our dog to play - which is no small feat!”

“Claudia was great with Willow! She’s patient with Willow’s very excited greeting, but does a good job at calming her right down. She spends time with her both in the house and in the backyard. She is prompt and reliable.”

“I am so eternally grateful to Brittany and all she did while she looked after my sweet old girl. Brittany went above and beyond any and all possible expectations in every conceivable way. My house went on the market while I was out of town, and Brittany coordinated with my realtor, ensuring the house was show-ready. Brittany attended to all unexpected events with maturity and professionalism, while still managing to provide me with frequent updates on my dog’s wellbeing. Brittany ensured my girl received the best care by way of frequent walks, grooming, feeding, medicating, and loving company. I honestly couldn’t recommend Brittany more!”

“My 200 pound mastiff was being as uncooperative as he could be when Christina was meeting his twice daily medical needs. She remained calm, patient and caring the entire time. I could not ask for more diligent and loving care for my dogs.”

“Great communication with us and sending pictures. We were at ease knowing my babies were taken care of. My hyper anxiety dog took right to her so did my unsocial cat. That says a lot.”

About: Professional, transparent, reliable, and genuine love for animals. Committed to creating a safe space and giving you peace of mind while providing the best care for your fur baby. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family. I work full time in health care. My schedule is flexible on the weekends. Open to providing services during weekday evenings with advanced notice. Thanks I’m patient and understand that some dogs may need more time to warm up to strangers. Interested in learning what I can do to help make your little love feel comfortable (ex. Favorite route, tree)
“Joel stayed in our home with Loki for a weekend, as always, Loki was very happy to spend time with Joel. We had great communications from Joel including lovely photos! Which always reassures us that our boy is doing ok!. Joel is always very respectful of our home and leaves it clean and tidy. We highly recommend Joel.to look after your beloved furry friends, weve booked him again for September for a longer stay, and January for a weekend!”


“We selected Ashley on short notice and she was awesome as both a dog and house sitter! Sent regular updates and pics of our dog. Was extremely flexible and stayed past our agreed upon end time due to an unexpected delay in our travel. Feel very comfortable with her as both a pet and house sitter. Will definitely use again.”


About: I've grown up around cats and dogs my whole life, so I am very used to being around them. I love dogs but I do feel I have a close affinity with cats more. Either way they are both great to love on. I'm currently working from home right now so I have plenty of time to spend with the fur kids. I'm currently available whenever needed as long as its reasonable, and of course schedules will change the more work I take on. We have a big fenced backyard for any animals to run around it. And a dog a 2 cats that are totally fine around others. Especially the dog who would love any new friend.
About: All of my life I've grown up with animals. (Dogs, specifically.) Before I went off to college my cousin, whom I'd been living with at the time, adopted a german shepherd. This german shepherd, Bauer, became like my own. I watched him go from tiny little puppy, to this massive energetic and sweet protector. I am experienced in most areas surrounding pet ownership and responsibilities. I am very nurturing and energetic, making me just the person to take care of your cherished. I follow instruction well, and I'm also experienced in cat care as well. Just a few years ago I adopted two kittens, Panther and Jaguar, who both grew up very quickly. Unfortunately, I had to move a few momths ago and could not accommodate for them both. I, then, made the decision to leave them in the good hands of my neighbor at the time. Lastly, I am a Sociology student at Santa Rosa Junior College with an interest in basic needs, equity, and how pets play a vital role in overall health. I'm currently working on research involving these topics! I work from home and I have a 2 year old. With that being said, I’m up early and my schedule is pretty flexible given my toddler keeps me on my toes! My apartment building is indoor so no worries necessarily about your fur baby if they’re escape artists. I don’t have a balcony or yard so we’ll just get that leash on and go explore!
About: Welcome to my profile! Hope you find what you’re lookin for. ❤️🐶 I have been a pet lover all my life and I've spent countless personal hours learning about our furry friends.. from physiology to behavioral sciences. I've trained and cared for every family dog that has passed through my home, which has given me in-depth experience with both young, old, and special needs pets. I am confident in my ability to care for your pet, big and small. You will find my hours extremely flexible, Mon-Fri: ANYTIME! Weekends: Negotiable (I am often volunteering at this time, but send me a message and I'll see what we can work out!) My own doggy gets fed and walked twice a day. I use a Redirect and Reenforce method that keeps dogs happy while maintaining good behavior. I keep safety in mind at all times, for example: never wearing headphones while outside with a pet- both animals and people can be unpredictable! Well versed with dog park etiquette if that is something you are interested in. If someone starts to get aggressive, we bounce!
About: I truly understand that trusting someone with your dog means trusting them with a member of your family. I'm attentive, patient, and comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. My famous hat that I love to wear reads, "easily distracted by dogs". One thing that is especially important to me is respecting every pet parents' wishes. Your rules are my rules. Whether that means specific walking routines, leash requirements, feeding instructions, avoiding certain dog areas, crate routines, or simply knowing your pups' little quirks. I'll never assume I know your dog better than you do. Safety is something I take very seriously, especially on walks and outside of the home. I stay aware of my surroundings, keep dogs securely leashed, and follow the boundaries you've put in place. Beyond keeping them safe, I want your pup to feel loved, comfortable, and genuinely excited to see me again. I have a pretty flexible schedule which allows me to easily make pet care a natural part of my day. I'm available throughout the week and can customize my schedule around your pet's normal routine whenever possible. Whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or a little extra time for play and cuddles, I'm happy to work with what keeps your pet happiest and most comfortable. Consistency is important, so I'll always do my best to keep their day feeling just like it does when you're home. Your pet's safety and comfort will always come first. I provide care in your pet's own home and neighborhood, where they can stay comfortable in the environment and routine they already know. I believe you know your pet best, so I'll carefully follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, routines, boundaries, and any special do's and don'ts. During walks, I stay attentive to our surroundings and keep your dog safely secured and supervised. For drop-ins and overnight stays, I'll respect both your pet and your home while keeping their routine as familiar and consistent as possible. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, loved, and being cared for exactly as you've requested. With plenty of pictures and updates along the way.

“Alayna was terrific. She sent me updates while we were gone, keeping me upraised about my two cats and large dogs eating and routine habits. She ticked off my list of “to do’s” making me feel very comfortable about leaving my senior cats and persnickety dog in her care. I would recommend her and I will contact her again. Thank you Alayna.”

About: I have taken care of animals for almost 7 years! I am constantly around animals, and I love learning the needs and wants for each dog and/or cat. Every animal has their own little personality that makes them the best, and I want to learn what your animals need in order for them to thrive in my care. I am comfortable around all dog/cat breeds, and have experience taking care of a range of breeds. When I come to walk, spend time with, and take care of your animals, they are my first priority, and I will do everything in my power to make sure they feel loved and cared for. I understand that every dog or cat needs different things, and I am more than willing to adapt to meet you and your pet where you need me! I have a dog and cat of my own- a rescue Labradoodle named Beau, and a short-haired tabby named Kona! They mean the world to me, and I will treat your animal with the love and respect that I treat my own animal babies with! Skills: I have ample experience in treating dogs who require medication, as well as senior dogs who need some extra care and attention to ensure comfortability and happiness. I am happy to lightly groom your pet if needed. For any medical accomodations, just give me a heads up so that I can best take care of your doggie! I have had almost a lifetime of taking care of cats, and am not a stranger to the many different and cooky personalities they can have. I have experience with a range of kitties who vary from requiring a little more space to get comfortable, as well cats who are super extroverted and friendly from the get-go. I have experience in brushing and maintaining both short-haired and long-haired cats, nail clipping, litter box maintenance, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, giving oral medication, etc. I am currently working part-time, but I have a lot of flexibility and work mostly mornings and early afternoons. I am also a college student with a very accommodating schedule! I have a lot of free time during the days and evenings, so I am virtually always able to come check-in and spend time with your fur baby! I have 5+ years of experience in housesitting, so navigating new environments in nothing new to me. Whatever your dog/cat needs, I am willing and able. Cleaning up after animal accidents/tidying up after playtime are things that I love to do to ensure that you and your animal feel comfortable in your home!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Florin
Abigail was wonderful! She was very friendly, warm, and caring toward my dogs. It was clear she genuinely enjoys being around animals, which made me feel comfortable leaving them in her care. I had a great experience and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with Jazmin. She arrived and departed on schedule, kept us updated every day, and sent plenty of photos and videos of our pups. Communication was excellent and she left our home just as she found it. We arrived home to happy pups and couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend Jazmin.

We had a wonderful experience with Jocelyn! She was caring, reliable, and attentive, and it was clear that our dog was in great hands. She kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciate the love and attention she gave our furry family member. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

Domynique, is fantastic she is always responsive and always keeps up with updates. This is the second time she has watched Nanea (2yo pitty mix) I swear I have not seen Nanea so happy with another person as she is with Domynique. I would 100% recommend using Domynique for your pups.

Julia recently cared for our 16 year old cat, Leaux, over night/s in our home. She did a fantastic job with him, following his frequent meal plan and giving him lots of cuddles. She also took extra care to calm him during the night when he cried out (several times) as he has a little older kitty dementia. She also took extra good care of our home. She sent me pictures and kept excellent communication along the way. It’s been a day since I’ve gotten home and he still keeps going into the guest room to see if she’s still there. He misses her. Don’t hesitate to book Julia for your pet.

This was Haile's first overnight stay with Bob and we are so happy we found her. She sends regular pictures and updates and lets us know when she arrives and leaves. Bob is obviously very happy to snuggle with her on the couch, and she's familiar with his medicines, including giving him an inhaler. We are looking forward to future stays with Haile!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Florin is $49 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $70 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 October 2026, there are 2,768 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Florin. 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 Florin 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 Florin 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 Florin 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.
