“Leah was perfect! We got regular updates with pictures and videos. She asked great questions on the initial interview and she genuinely loved meeting our pups. Plus the pups loved her too. She has followed all the detailed notes we left her. We will definitely have her watch our pups again.”
About: I have experience with dogs & cats of all different breeds & ages. I have a dog & 3 cats at home & love being around animals whenever possible! I work part time & I have a lot of free time during the day to spend with the pets! I love playing with them or just having them near me when I’m home. I am available to walk the dogs when needed & spend time with them in the yard/play with them inside and hang with them during the day.
“Brittney always takes wonderful care of our pups!!! I feel so at ease knowing that they are in such good hands. We have used her for both drop in visits and house sitting. She is reliable and professional. And she genuinely enjoys spending time with the dogs! I couldn’t ask for more.”

About: Hi👋 I'm Jill. I grew up on a farm and have always been around dogs & cats. I currently have two cats of my own. They were both strays and came into my life at different times. I love interacting with all types of animals. Since I can't have a dog of my own yet due to living situations, I would love to take care of yours! My sister and brother in-law have two dogs that I watch when they go out of town. One is a bigger 70 lbs Australian Shepard and the other is a smaller 10 lbs toy poodle. I hope to bring peace of mind to you and happiness & excitement to your pets. I work full time, but am available anytime on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays most weeks. 6 a.m. is the earliest I'm available and 10:30 p.m. is the latest. Availability breakdown: Sundays- Before 11 a.m. after 5:30 p.m. Mondays- After 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays- 6 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. (Anytime) Wednesdays- After 3:30 p.m. Thursdays- 6 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. (Anytime) Fridays- Before 8:45 a.m. after 7:30 p.m. Saturdays- 6 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. (Anytime) My two cats are grazers so they get fed twice a day and eat when they get hungry. They have a water fountain that circulates the water to mimick a stream. They seem to enjoy moving water better than still standing in a bowl. When I watch my sister & brother in-laws dogs I take them for walks twice a day and we play & cuddle. I work on tricks with them too. I normally use their dry food as treats if we work on tricks for a while.
“Asia helped us out at the last minute and we had a great experience! She came over multiple times per day to take care of our dog while we were out of town and sent lots of pictures. We would definitely use her again!”
“Thank you! My cats and dog are always so well taken care of as well as my house!🩷 constantly updating me with pictures. I feel so comfortable leaving when Alexandra is with my animals! I would recommend her to any of my family and friends :)”
“Bryant is a star house sitter! He's good with my dogs when I observe them together, and I know he's like that when I'm gone. I was 2,000 miles away, when Bryant notified my dogs were ill. He didn't hesitate to promptly call and take them to my vet. He kept me updated. My dogs are basically fine now. I hope to Use Bryant agaìǰ̣”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Florissant
Miss Kate has watched Owen for several overnight visits now. She communicates with me with pictures, videos and messages to let me know how everything is going. She did some laundry and cleaned up like I left it for her so I appreciate that very much. I look forward to having her watch Owen again soon. Thank you for taking such good care of Owen for me!
We are so happy and glad we hired Leah and Mara and Sydnie! Amazing job, SUPER communicative, and so on point with our pets! They took care of our bearded dragons and cats. I was really thankful they also communicated when wind storms broke part of our fence and made sure everything was still ok in our house. Would love to hire them again next time we need a sitter! 10/10 recommend!
Janay & Carlton did wonderfully at our place with our critters. We were gone for 10 days and our anxious goldendoodle, young poodle, and teenager cat were very well taken care of. The house was very well kept and everything just as we left it. We will absolutely be rebooking them next time we leave town. Thanks y’all!!
Tazhae is awesome! She took great care of my 5 needy dogs and the house. She brought in my packages and the house was in great shape (clean) when I got home. Excellent communication and sent updates and pictures while we were gone. Have already booked to use again and would highly recommend!
Heather was amazing, from our meet & greet to the end of her stay with Lily. She's a great communicator, and was great with lily who has some separation anxiety. She even taught lily a few new tricks! Took care of the house as if it were hers. I super appreciate Heather and would definitely recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Florissant on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,691 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Florissant. 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 Florissant 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 Florissant 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 Florissant 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
