“Sovan was available and flexible to meet before the housesitting job and when we met, he was collaborative and attentive. While housesitting, he sent updates and photos which reassured me all was well. Was responsive to my texts. He followed my requests for caring for my home and it was in tip-top shape upon my return. My dog was happy. Highly recommend Sovan!”
“Kailynn stayed at my house to take care of my 3 pups. They're a lot of work, but she was fantastic! Kailynn sent pics on multiple days and left my home better than when she arrived. I wasn't expecting her to put my guest room back together (it doubles as my office, but I set it up for her to use as a bedroom when I left). She washed all the bedding and communicated really well the whole time (better than me!). I would definitely use her again.”
“Mary is amazing . She treated our two treasured dogs like they were her own . She takes her responsibilities seriously and it shows . I could tell Dolly and Gypsy were extremely well cared for while we were away for a whole week …no worries with Mary on board . Huge side note - our dogs are BIG shedders - a daily vacuum for sure …and when we got home the house looked exactly like we left it . Mary went above and beyond her job as a dog sitter keeping the house dog hair free . She is a gem and we will definitely use her again and again . Thank you Mary .”
“Zach is amazing! He has a heart for animals and took incredible care of our old Jack Russell. He followed the requested schedule to the letter and sent wonderful pictures along the way! He was very respectful of our space and went above and beyond by washing his sheets and towels for us before leaving! We will definitely be rebooking with Zach!”
“Blaize was an absolutely AMAZING house and pup sitter. She took great care of our home, even alerting us to issues so we didn't come back to any surprises. We came back to a clean home and the healthiest, happiest pup ever. We could tell she took care of her just like it was her own, which we are so thankful for! We definitely look forward to her staying with our pup in the future! Thanks again, Blaize!!”
“So nice!! Very patient with my dogs and cat who are very shy. She took the time to gain their trust and say and cuddled with them! 😊 She sent pictures of all their walks and it really helped put my mind at easy while missing them and being away from my babies knowing they were happy. Will book with Shannon C. again whenever I need someone to watch my fur babies!!”
“Beverly was a wonderful caregiver to our elderly pup. We could tell he was very comfortable with her and she treated him with love and kindness as if he were her own. We would highly recommend her to everyone who has pets to be cared for.”
“Maddy is a lifesaver! She was kind enough to jump in on very short notice. She is open and incredibly friendly. When we returned, we could tell right away that our dogs had been in great hands - they were relaxed, happy, and clearly well-cared for. We felt 100% comfortable leaving her in our home and truly appreciated the photos and updates she sent. We can definitely recommend Maddy to any dog owner. Thank you, Maddy!”
“Becky was amazing! First and foremost she took amazing care of Ollie, he adored her!! She also was super great with communication. I got the cutest pics and videos of their time together, which was so appreciated. I would recommend Becky to anyone!!”
“April is simply the best! She cared for my cat while I was on a 2 week vacation and I could not recommend her enough! She went above and beyond and provided the utmost care for my little guy!”
“I have never left my dog with anyone other than family or friends so I was nervous using rover for my first time. I had a friend cancel for watching my dog Saint a DAY before a trip I had planned. I was freaking out and didn’t know what to do. I found Kierra and rover and gave it a shot. She accepted my booking the day before I left and I couldn’t be more thankful. Kierra exceeded my expectations x 100! My dog Saint loves her and when I came home he was happy and well taken care of. Kierra checked in with me and sent me photos during my time away which made me feel sooooo much better. I would 100% recommend her to anyone, and will be using her services anytime I go out of town again and can’t take my baby!”
“We were very pleased with Susie, the boys responded very well to her friendly demeanor. She was punctual, professional, and left the house in good condition! This was our first time leaving our babies behind and we were nervous but with all the pictures and communication we felt at ease. We would definitely request Susie again in the future.”
“Marharyta was absoultoely wonderful with Bridget and Ziggy! I was so worried leaving Ziggy for the first time, especially with his separation anxiety, however, I could tell before I even left for vacation that he had already warmed up to her. She kept in constant contact, and I was able to see both Bridget and Ziggy happy and having fun. She watched them in our home, and our home was perfect when we came home. Awesome Awesome sitter!”
About: I've been an animal lover since I was a little kid, having birds, lizards, guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and more, I have experience with all kinds of pets! I got my start working as a dog handler for a large facility in Michigan that offered daycare, boarding, grooming, and training for all breeds of dogs. That is where I fell in love with taking care of animals. I graduated from the Academy of Animal Arts and Sciences and since then I have been grooming at a salon as well as doing freelance pet sitting, training, and grooming. I work at a grooming salon Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from roughly 8am-4pm so I am available to care for your pets outside of those hours. I currently am not able to board dogs in my home, due to damage from hurricane helene and hurricane milton but I am available for pet care in your home!
“Taylor was amazing with my pup Monti. She was very professional, kind, and responsive. I needed help last second when a sitter decided to cancel on me two days before my trip and Taylor was my life savor. I will be using Taylor again as she is trust worthy and reliable!”

What can I say about Kaitlin? Everything was absolutely perfect. My dogs were happy. The house looked as though no one was even in it. I would definitely recommend her for any of your needs. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you so much! I appreciate you!😊
Andi is a great pet sitter! She did a great job watching our GSP, Josh, who really liked her. I love how she sent us a few updates and photos every day and stayed in touch with us while we were away. She came to meet Josh before staying at our house with him and texted to confirm the appointment a day before which was great. Thank you, Andi!
Teagan was absolutely wonderful with our two golden retrievers, Jackson and Parker! She stayed at our house for the full 10 days and took such great care of both the dogs and our home. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay and sent us lots of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, the house was spotless, and she even washed all the sheets before leaving. It was clear that she went above and beyond in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend Teagan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, responsible, and dependable. Awesome job all around!
Shareka was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs are incredibly spoiled. They’re used to lots of attention, affection, and company, and she exceeded my expectations in every way and I felt zero guilt for leaving my dogs. I use Rover almost every weekend, and I can honestly say she has been my favorite sitter so far. I would recommend her without hesitation and would hire her again every single time if our schedules line up. She’s reliable, caring, and truly treats your pets like her own. I almost don’t want to leave this review because I want to keep her my little secret. 😂 But she deserves every bit of the praise. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Tina took excellent care of our babies while we went away on a family trip. She had a full house on her hands and made sure they had lots of attention and cuddles. Her daughter came over too to help with their care and playtime, and she communicated very well with us every day with photos and updates on how they were doing. We recommend her and would definitely book with Tina again in the future :)
Astra was the perfect fit to watch our dog for our overnight get away. She kept us well informed with updates and photos. Pazzo took to her immediately, which was easily seen in the photos. We didn't appear missed one second. The true sign of the right sitter. We look forward to using Astra again.
Sam was amazing! I definitely recommend her. She house sat for me last minute. Will definitely be booking again. My dogs and my cat can be very shy with new people, but they all warmed up to her really well right away. She gave them lots of attention and she sent me lots of photos. Sam left my house cleaner than I left it and her communication was great. Thanks Sam!

FAQs for House Sitting - Indian Rocks Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Indian Rocks Beach on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,553 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Indian Rocks Beach. 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 Indian Rocks Beach 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 Indian Rocks Beach 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 Indian Rocks Beach 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 Indian Rocks Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
