“Cathy is great with the pups and this for this visit was a life saver for us. My husband was able to have her trouble shooting the power outlets in the garage to get the garage door opener working again and restore power to the refrigerator and freezer! Go greatly appreciated!!”

About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services. We both have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. We’re comfortable following specific instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My sister, who you’ll be mainly interacting with, is reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She has hands-on experience with pet sitting, walking, and making sure pets feel comfortable in new situations. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, she’s got it covered. We know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, so we’re committed to clear communication, updates, and giving you peace of mind. I am a full time nursing student at the moment. I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!
About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life. I’m the first person my friends and family go to when they need dog care. I’ve been a sitter for many people for many years. Animals have been my passion for many years. I work in the evenings so I have the free time to look after your precious pups. I am willing to travel as far as you need to make sure you have no worries while you’re gone. I live on 5 acres of fenced in yard to have plenty of space for your fur babies. I also have two sweet pups if your puppy wants friends. I have the ability to crate your babies if you prefer that aswell.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’m always home so it will easily fit into my weekly routine. I enjoy all animals and look forward to taking care of yours j I will take care of your pet as if it’s my own! I have a nice yard for lots of fun playtime and lots of toys
“Lyndsay was super communicative with me from start to finish. My flight got delayed and offered to stay a few extra hours past what we agreed upon. She sent me pics of my babies throughout the day and the entire weekend. I highly recommend her and trust her with my pups!”

“Karla was absolutely wonderful with my two Golden Retrievers, Shiloh and Snow. She was kind, responsible, communicative, and clearly cared for them as if they were her own. Throughout my trip, I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all care instructions, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. I returned home to two very well-cared-for and content dogs. I highly recommend Karla and will gladly book with her again!”

“It’s so nice to know that your home and pets are well taken care of when you go on vacation abroad. Our pups love Kenneth. He was respectful and our house was nice and tidy when we got back.”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 15. She’s now 11 years old and a healthy pup. I was a certified vet assistant a few years back but could not handle the emotional pain of watching dogs pass in the medical field. I still love dogs and cats and enjoy caring for them. I work full time overnight so I am able to spend daytime with your pet! Tuesday and Wednesday are my usual days off. I can typically spend 6-8 hours with your pet before I leave for work at 9:30pm. My pets are kept indoors and on our screened patio. They keep a strict routine and enjoy sunbathing on the patio. It’s a relatively new home so the screening is strong and has never been broken. We have two litter robots and my home is always in clean condition.
“Dana was amazing! Our pup went on plenty of walks at all hours of the day, and looked extremely comfortable with Dana in charge. Communication was great, house was well taken care of, and most importantly our pup had a great time with her sitter. Overall great experience, would recommend”

“First time using Lily for just one night and we can already tell how much she cares for Janis. She is on time and very conscientious about all things. Will definitely be using her again.”

“John G looked after our two medium sized dogs and 18-year-old cat for five days in our home. John was communicative punctual great with the dogs and personable. I would not hesitate to recommend John as a Pet Sitter.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life. I started volunteering at the Pet Resource Center in Tampa a few years back, and was lucky enough to get a job there. We not only provide them daily care, but get to have fun as well. Feeding, walking, enrichment and overall care. I have 2 days off that I’d be able to dedicate to pet care. I would be available in the evenings as well. I’m already providing pet care at my full time job, but am looking for additional activities. N/A as I would not be offering care or services in my home, I’d only be going to clients homes to provide services needed. Thank you

About: I've walked my family dogs, and cats for family members for 10 years. To feed them, give them medication and walk and play with them. I also care for my cat (Gabby). I currently work with a small family business for most of my day. Sundays I have all day to play and care for your pets. Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I can pass by or do overnight boarding after 5pm. Tuesday and Thursday I attend classes, I'm free around 11am-3pm, but if anything changes I'll keep this updated. I have a cat and she's curious of other animals but she always keeps her distance. I feed her 3 times a day max. She tends to be on her own little schedule every day, but I also take her on daily walks. She's a cat who loves to explore everything with me.
“If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were her own, Francesca is the person you want!!😁 I AM SERIOUS. SHE is the person you want for your fur babies!! I am 10000% sure YOUR PET WILL CHOOSE HER. Not only did we schedule Francesca a couple months in advance, we ended up having changes to our vacation and reservation. We notified Francesca in advance and she happily adapted to the new plans (this happened a couple times!) As someone who probably “over thinks” the care our pets receive (they’re our babies!!), Francesca went above and beyond.. Francesca recently stayed with our dog, Blu, and our cat, Milo, while we were away (we boarded our other two dogs to “try out” Rover), and we could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we left, she provided multiple updates, photos, and messages throughout each day, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear that she was not simply checking in on our pets—she was genuinely engaged with them, attentive to their needs, and invested in their well-being. She allowed Blu to sleep with her (as we normally do) and cuddle her (our pets are very cuddly). This meant so much to us as we’d never expect for someone to give up their personal space, but she did! She followed our pets’ routines exactly as requested, ensuring consistency and comfort while we were gone. Beyond caring for our animals, she also treated our home with the utmost respect. She kept everything clean, did laundry, washed dishes, and left our home in wonderful condition. What truly stood out was her calmness and professionalism during an unexpected situation. One of our pets had an accident while we were away, and Francesca immediately called us, kept us informed, and handled everything with remarkable composure and compassion. During a stressful moment, she was exactly the kind of person you would want caring for your beloved pets. She noted when our dog didn’t finish his food or supplements, when he had gone potty, and even shared what she was doing/her personal plans. Francesca is caring, responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and incredibly compassionate toward animals. We never once worried about our pets because we knew they were in excellent hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter, and we will absolutely be using her again in the future.🐾”

About: One of my favorite things in the whole world are animals, especially dogs. 🐶 I had the most amazing dog, a yorkie mix named Spencer. 🐕 Rescuing him was one of the best decisions I ever made! He was the sweetest, funniest, most adventurous and loyal dog. I rescued him but he truly rescued me. We had 10 years together and I am truly grateful for every moment. I miss him everyday. But I know I gained a guardian angel. 🐶🩵😇 I have always loved dog sitting and taking care of animals. When my dog Spencer passed, taking care of other peoples animals truly helped heal me from losing Spencer. It became a passion and a calling. Pet sitting is one of the biggest joys in my life. 🌄 I love to take care of dogs, keep them safe, spend time in nature with them, and have them enjoy the best life possible! 🏞 I have taken care of 1-5 dogs/cats at a time. My services include house sitting, drop ins, and dog walking.🐕🦺 I can do dog feedings and cook for dogs. I am trained in special diets like RMF (rotational mono feeding). I can give and administer treats, supplements, medicine, pills, and injections. I am trained in administering dogs and cats insulin. I have taken care of dogs that had diabetes, kidney problems, and heart issues. I am trained in giving pills, injections, and special diets. 🍲 I can take dogs on trails or dog parks, exercise them with their toys, and anything else that is part of their routine. 🐶🏃♀️ I work for Catapult Learning as a Teacher/Tutor. I set my own schedule and my hours are flexible. I also have school breaks and summers off. So I have a lot of time to take care of your precious fur baby 🐶❤️🐕🦺 My services are house sitting for your pets. Dogs and cats are the most comfortable in their own home. I will keep the routine you and your family have set for your animals. I will keep your animals: safe, fed, and loved. With lots of cuddles, playing with toys, and exercise. ❤️🐕🦺🏠
“Sydney was wonderful. We have three small dogs and a cat who can be nervous around new people, they took to her immediately. She got down to their level when she met them and allowed them to take their time in feeling comfortable. She took our younger dog for walks. Sydney is friendly, courteous and responsible. My pets just loved her. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.
About: I've grown up with animals all my life. Cats and dogs. If a friend or relative goes out of town or just needs some help, I am the one they call to help. From feeding, bathing, to walking. I currently work Full-Time, 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts. Besides during that time, I am available to pop-in at any time. If on those days, before and after work is when I am able to pop-in. Works for some babies, not all. Care for them as I care for mine. I make sure they have a clean eating area and their water clean and accessible. Adequate potty time outside for dogs. For cats, keep their litter boxes clean, so they do not feel compelled to go elsewhere. After potty time is play time, give them an enriching environment, get their energy out.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fort Green
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Green on Rover is $25.68 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 952 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Green. 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
