“Under unexpected and difficult circumstances during her stay, Yelena cared for my dogs in an extraordinarily special manner…an effort I won’t forget and remain thankful for”
“Tiffany was so great! She arrived as promised and even took our dog out one extra time for us since we were returning late. The dog was happy and well- cared for, left the house in great shape. Will definitely use Tiffany again and highly recommend!”
“Shelley was fantastic taking care of our animals while we were away. She went above and beyond our expectations and provided tons of updates. The pets were all very happy and well cared for, and the house was nice and tidy when we returned home. We will definitely be booking her again when we need a sitter!”
“Alyson was fantastic. Took great care of Bailey and truly cared for her as if she were hers. With a hysterical nickname - you could tell she understood her personality as we do. That level of kindness goes a long way. So greatly appreciated.”
About: Hi! I’m a true animal lover with a big heart for both dogs and cats. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether your pup needs long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship and gentle care, I’m happy to match their unique personality and routine. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet sitting in your home. Whether your puppy needs patience, playtime, and consistency, or your senior dog needs a slower pace and extra TLC, I have experience providing attentive, compassionate care for both. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and keep your furry family members happy in their own familiar environment.
“Jonathan did an incredible job again! He has become our “go-to” sitter for our cat and dog. Our animals are so excited to see him and I suspect a little let down when they see us return. Lol. Jonathan provides such wonderful care and attention, sends updates and pics regularly, and it makes taking a family trip so much more relaxing knowing our fur babies are in great care. Can’t recommend him enough!”
“I am so glad that I found Diahann to pet/house sit while we were traveling internationally. She was great with our 2 pugs. She was extremely responsible and communicative, sending us daily updates about our girls. Our home was also in perfect condition when we returned. Being a veterinarian myself, I can be picky about who takes care of our dogs, but Diahann definitely passed with flying colors. As long as she is available, she will be my go to pet sitter from now on.”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my day-to-day for as long as I can remember. I’m a lifelong animal lover (and admittedly a bit of a compulsive animal rescuer!) who has raised, rescued, and cared for many animals over the years. Today, I’m the proud owner of two cats, Midge and Maisel, and a dog, Baloo, of my own. My experience goes beyond everyday pet care. I’ve cared for animals during recovery, pets with special circumstances and additional needs, senior animals requiring extra patience and attention, and dogs with behavioral challenges. I understand that every animal has their own personality, comfort level, and routine, and I’m comfortable adjusting my approach to what helps them feel safe and cared for. While dogs and cats are the animals I work with most, my experience is pretty diverse! Over the years I’ve also cared for birds, fish, sugar gliders, snakes, and a handful of rescued wildlife—including raccoons, squirrels, a deer, and even an opossum. Above all, I treat the animals in my care like I would want someone to treat my own—with patience, affection, attentiveness, and respect for their individual needs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I work part-time and remotely Monday through Saturday, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the day. Because I work from home, I can easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and pets who need a little more attention or companionship during the day. I know that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big deal, so I take both responsibilities seriously. When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible by following their normal routines, feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, house rules, and any special instructions you provide. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Nick is the very best! Ellie and Theo love him! I know they are in very good hands when Nick comes to stay with them. He takes care of every detail on my (very extensive 😜) list of instructions. He sends daily updates with pictures to keep us up to date on how everything is going. I am normally very nervous to leave my dogs in anyone’s care, but I don’t worry when Nick is in charge. Thank you for another wonderful stay! We will see you again soon!”
About: You would never know but I used to be afraid of dogs as a child. After we added a golden retriever named Joe to our family, I've been obsessed with dogs ever since. He passed away 6 years ago now and has left me longing to care for pups. I spent the summer helping my sister with her dog sitting business up north and am looking to do occasional dog sitting in the Orlando area. I am a preschool teacher during the week so I would be available to dogsit on the weekends. Or during the week if the situation allows. I would show your pup lots of love and attention! I feel comfortable going on long walks, playing fetch and keeping the dog on his daily routine to manintain his comfort while his family are away.
“Steffanie was great with with my Bernese Mountain Dog. She made time for the meet and greet, asked good questions about care and feeding, and exceeded my expectations during the house-sitting service by providing regular updates with photos. I l9ok forward to booking with Steffanie again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Elizabeth was great with my three very different personality dogs. They are little with big personalities! She managed them all so well, no accidents in the house, and gave them love as if they were her own. I’m happy to have found someone reliable and patient to be with our pups when we go out of town:)”
“Aaliyah was very friendly and communicative with the dogs. She was very attentive and available and kept sending updates each day. Aaliyah was also very clean and left no messes behind after housesitting for us. We would definitely hire Aaliyah again.”
About: As a proud pet parent to two dogs and two cats, I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of showing love (or attitude! 😸). I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave them with someone else, so my goal is to make you feel just as cared for as your pets. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and believe communication is everything. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you can actually relax while you’re away. Whether your pet wants a long walk, a game of fetch, a quiet cuddle, or simply someone to respect their space, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I treat every pet like family and every home with the same care and respect I’d expect for my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care throughout the day while house sitting. Your pets won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily fit walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, medications, and cuddle sessions into my schedule. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine. I’m happy to schedule meet and greets to make sure everyone (especially pets) is comfortable. I know that keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. If you have a schedule, I’ll stick to it! Whether it’s feeding times, medications, walks, bedtime routines, or favorite playtimes, I’ll follow your instructions closely. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and the peace of mind that everything was well cared for.

Brittney was so so wonderful! Our pups loved her and she made us feel so comfortable from the minute we met! She was very communicative and would send pictures every day! She also treated our home with the utmost care. I highly recommend her for any of your petsitting needs!
Thanya went beyond expectations staying at our home and caring for our dog Bogy! She sent many photos, tried many options to get Bogy to take his Meds, my house was well kept! It look just as I left it !!! What a pleasure to come home to ! I highly recommend Thanya and plan on booking with her again!
My husband and I are absolutely thrilled to have had Yelena work with us this past weekend. We were so nervous about having a "stranger" in our home and leaving our girl dog but from the moment we met Yelena, all of that nervous energy was laid to rest. She certainly is ... a " dog whisperer!" We instantly connected on kore than one level. Thank you again! We hope to connect again in the future
Sarah was amazing with my 2 beagles. This was the first time I left them while traveling out of the country and she took care of them just as I do. She was very accommodating with everything the dogs are used to as well as administering medication. She also kept us updated throughout our trip which for was very comforting for me to see how well they were doing with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gotha on Rover is $44.4 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 3,067 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gotha. 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 Gotha 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 Gotha 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 Gotha 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 Gotha. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
