Jazmin stayed the weekend in our home and took care of our two dogs, a Rat Terrier and a Rottweiler. Jazmin sent us pictures and gave us updates on the pups while we were out of town. We came home to two happy dogs and our home in perfect condition. Thank you Jazmin!

I would be so hesitant to leave our dogs with anyone but Kelsey. This is the third time we've booked him for in home sitting and each time we come home, the pups are healthy and happy. This trip especially was important to us because it was our wedding and honeymoon. We wouldn't have been able to enjoy either without someone we trusted and appreciated as much as him.

I can’t say enough good things about Robbyn. Jackson immediately connected with her, and he was more relaxed than I’ve ever seen him for a high energy puppy. She kept the place spotless, communicated regularly, and sent plenty of photos so I always knew he was doing well. I’m truly grateful for the care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again.

I have booked with Felicia three times now, and she has consistently provided a great experience. What stands out most is her attention to detail; she asks a lot of questions upfront to make sure she fully understands my dog's routine and comfort levels. It’s clear she wants to get everything exactly right, which gives me a lot of peace of mind while I'm away. She is reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the well being of the animals in her care. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone thorough and attentive!

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Ashley took amazing care of our dogs and our home while we were away. She kept us updated throughout the stay with great communication and of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. The best part was coming home to happy, relaxed dogs, it was obvious they had been so well cared for that they hardly seemed to miss us! We truly appreciated the love and attention she gave each of them, as well as the care she took with our home. We are so grateful for everything she did and will absolutely be requesting her again for our future pet care needs. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life including seniors with medical needs. I currently have an 18-year-old cat who requires daily medication, so I’m very comfortable with administering meds and handling special routines. While I have not walked or sat much for others professionally yet, I bring decades of hands-on experience with my own pets—treating each one like family. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and attention to detail. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, lots of attention, and flexibility with scheduling. I understand how important it is to keep dogs feeling safe, loved, and well cared for while their people are away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, timely care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, regular check-ins, or extended company, I can usually accommodate last-minute or custom requests. I’m happy to discuss a schedule that works best for you and your pet’s routine! I care for pets with the same attention and respect I give my own. At home, I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I follow feeding routines, keep fresh water available, and provide enrichment through play, affection, and companionship. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and loved while you're away.

Kimberly was a fantastic caretaker for our two anxious pups! She was so communicative and caring, making sure to let us know exactly when she was arriving and how our pups were doing (pics included). Even our skittish girl Lilly was at ease with Kimberly and let her give cuddles and medication to her. Kimberly treated our home with respect and left it nice and clean. 10/10 recommend and we’ll definitely be working with her again!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Green Acres

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Green Acres on Rover is $45.51 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 1,326 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Green Acres. 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 Green Acres 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 Green Acres 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 Green Acres 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 Green Acres. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% 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.
