“Highly recommend Shawnee. Great communication and attention to detail. Shawnee scheduled a meet and greet, where she took tons of wonderful notes and got to know the boys. While watching the dogs she provided the perfect amount of updates and photos. Appreciate all her hard work ☺️”
“Elizabeth was fantastic! She sent pics and updates throughout the day while we were out! Our boy, Mav, was wiped out when we got home! He is about 3 1/2 yr old spoiled rotten Sheepadoodle! We would HIGHLY recommend her for your fur baby! She is kind and very patient - Mav took to her immediately!”
“This is our third time having Luciana stay with Jasmine and she is just wonderful. She sends photos every day of Jasmine and updates us on everything going on at home. It’s so nice to not have to worry about our pup or house with Luciana staying there!”
“Allorah was amazing with our dog Pascal! He’s always a bit shy with new people, but she was super patient and gave him all the time he needed to get used to her. Communication with her was super easy and she was always sending us updates of how they were doing (which we really appreciated). We will definitely keep contacting her every time we need someone to take care of our fur baby!”
“Zoe does an absolutely phenomenal job with our 3 dogs! She gives them constant love and attention and is very detailed on how she cares for them when you are away. Zoe sends multiple pics of our fur babies to show how they are doing! Would strong recommend her and we plan to continue using her regularly.”
“I am very pleased with Kayla and the care she took of my dogs. I received updates and photos while I was away and when I returned, I couldn't even tell anyone had stayed in my house! I will definitely call on her the next time I am out of town. I would highly recommend Kayla.”
“Bradley did an amazing job with our 3 babies and kept us informed of everything happening with our pets and home. He even sent pictures of our mail and packages as they arrived and kept the house neat and tidy! I’ve had some bad experiences with previous house/pet sitters. Bradley did a phenomenal jobs and I felt very comfortable leaving our dachshunds in the hands of someone familiar with the breed. Expect lots of pictures of your pack!”
“We are always nervous to leave my babies with someone new but Curtis made us feel so relaxed while he watched our dogs. We got daily updates with pictures on how they were doing. So thankful we found him! We will book him again in the future!! Thank you so much ❤️”
“Shannon was fantastic! I’m so glad we got a chance to work with her. Her communication was excellent, she arrived on time (slightly early actually) had a wonderful attitude and gave Jax lots of love and exercise while we were gone. He was pooped when we got home! I would highly recommend working with Shannon if you need a pet sitter.”
About: I don’t just watch pets; I connect with them. I’m deeply attentive to each dog’s personality, emotions, routines, and comfort levels. Whether a pet needs extra reassurance, playtime, structure, or quiet companionship, I adjust my care to meet their needs not a one size fits all approach. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, understood, and genuinely at home. I treat every animal as if they were my own, offering patience, consistency, and lots of affection. My goal is for owners to feel complete peace of mind knowing their pet isn’t just cared for, but truly loved. With me, your pet isn’t just boarded, they’re welcomed into a home full of warmth, trust, and unlimited cuddles 🤍🐾 Because I work part time from home, pets are never left unattended for long periods. My schedule allows me to be present throughout the day for: • Regular potty breaks and walks • Feeding on their normal schedule • Playtime, enrichment, and mental stimulation • Cuddles, comfort, and companionship • Monitoring their mood, behavior, and overall well-being My work from home setup lets me easily balance responsibilities while giving pets constant attention, reassurance, and care. Your pet becomes part of my daily routine, not an afterthought🤍 Hi! I’m Joa, 23, and caring for animals has always been part of my life. when i was young, growing up with my dog Lula, I learned how intuitive, emotionally intelligent, and comforting dogs can be. I don’t currently have pets in my home but that experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to create a safe, trusting environment. I provide a calm, loving home where pets feel secure and understood. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, habits, and emotional needs, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is for pets and their owners to feel peace, comfort, and complete trust. Book now for unlimited love, care, and dog cuddles 🤍🐾
“Danielle is very kind and was flexible in coordinating a meet and greet with our furbabies before our trip. She has a very gentle and calming presence, and you can tell she likes animals! Danielle is very responsive and always wrote back to me quickly. She is respectful of directions given, took good care of our pets, and we came home to a clean house. Thanks for watching our furbabies, Danielle!”
“My neighbors backed out of pet sitting a day before I was leaving on my trip. I didn't want to board my cats because my one cat becomes suicidal when he has to be boarded. I downloaded the Rover app and found Yara. I submitted my request and was relieved when she quickly and cheerfully agreed to take care of my two cats. She was soon taking care of my cats and sending me pictures. I knew they were in good hands and they both liked her too. I will request Yara the next time I take a trip.”
“Zhilin was a perfect sitter. From daily pictures / videos, to constant updates on how the little kitty was doing, I genuinely could not have asked for anything more. I can go on and on about how good she was, and I will definitely be using Zhilin again to watch Simba. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie is a blessing!! I’m so glad we found her, our pups was in such a good mood when we got home. Our house and pups was well taken care of! We will definitely reuse her!”
“Always happy to book with Yvonne😄 She goes above and beyond to make sure the fur babies are happy and stayed an extra day when our flights got canceled. Thank you! We will definitely book with them again 😄”
“We love having Kat take care of our cat and house sit. She is very dependable. Our cat is affectionate with her. She sent me pictures of Olee more than once per day. She gave him his pill every day, and brushed him. We had requested the brushing because he had been having trouble with hairballs. We couldn't ask for a better cat sitter.”
“Kristina instantly became our favorite sitter and treated our dog and cat like her own. Upon the meet and greet, our shy cat even came out of hiding to see her, which rarely happens. Kristina went above and beyond with communications while she stayed at our house for over a week. She was incredibly respectful of our home and the routines of our pets. Coming home after our vacation, it was obvious that the animals were treated with care, and our home was spotless. We've had some good house sitters, but Kristina was extraordinary, and we look forward to using her again!”
“All went great: Alana was attentive to my detailed cat care instruction, easy to contact and quickly befriended the cat judging by photo updates :) Looking forward to future visits!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I have had two family dogs with years of experience providing care for them. I recently completed the Veterinary Assistant program at Southern Technical College in Auburndale, Florida and have obtained my Veterinary Assistant certification through the Florida Veterinary Medical Association. As part of the Veterinary Assistant program, I completed 3 internships. Two of these were at Veterinary Hospitals and one was at an animal boarding and daycare facility. I am also a volunteer at the Humane Center in Winter Haven, Florida. I will provide excellent care for your pet and I am sure your pet and I will be great friends. I'm currently a volunteer at the Humane Society in Winter Haven, Florida. I can easily adjust my time there to provide pet care throughout the week. I have years of experience of leash walking dogs for both my personal pets and various times when I have been a pet sitter. From my experience of taking care of my pets I keep them on a schedule for feeding and bathroom timers. With my veterinary assistant training, I have knowledge and experience of providing medications to pets. I also find it is very important to provide attention and love for pets at all times.

I didn't know that it was a couple that watched my dogs? But it actually worked out better! Jamie and her husband are Great ! Very polite, respectful, and humble. I would be glad to use them again! They helped us out in a jamb and stayed an extra day with no notice! House was left clean, bed made, no dishes, etc. Good kids! Will hire again!
Kat has been an absolute lifesaver for us - couldn’t recommend her enough! After moving from the UK to the US earlier this year, I was anxious about finding someone who could look after my nervous dog who has never stayed with anyone other than family. Kat was more than understanding with us when we wanted to arrange a few visits beforehand so Vinnie could get to know her. It’s meant that we’ve been able to enjoy a short vacation without worrying about him. She was also very accommodating when we announced we’d adopted a second dog a week before! We’ve had lots of photos and updates which has been really great, and I think Vinnie and Boone are already looking forward to the next time!
This was our 2nd time using Haylee and she was just as wonderful! We will continue to use her for future needs! My dog normally has separation anxiety and was fine the whole time with Haylee! She’s very reliable and responsive! She sent picture updates every visit!
First-Class Care for Casper & Lilly! We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care Evan provided for our two dogs, Casper and Lilly, while we were away on a 10-day family vacation. From the very beginning, Evan took the time to truly get to know our pups—their personalities, routines, and individual needs. It was clear she genuinely cared for them as if they were her own. Evan sent us twice-daily updates, complete with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her communication was thoughtful and consistent, and we loved seeing how happy and relaxed our dogs were in her care. Not only did she provide exceptional care for Casper and Lilly, but she also respected and looked after our home with the utmost professionalism. We returned to two very happy dogs and a spotless house. If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond, Evan is the sitter you want. We wholeheartedly recommend her and will absolutely be booking with her again!
Wow! Katherine was Amazing! Great personality and she kept me informed and went the extra mile! She was on time, super nice, and Luna seemed so happy when we got home! She will definitely be my go to person! So don’t book her, because she’s all mine! lol! Just kidding!

FAQs for House Sitting - Haines City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Haines City 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 1,740 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Haines City. 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 Haines City 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 Haines City 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 Haines City 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.

- 96% 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.
