About: Between owning pets for 10+ years and helping friends and family take care of their pets I have a lot of experience with senior dogs who require extra care and things like medication to puppies who just want lots of play time! I work from home which provides me a lot of flexibility in my schedule, both weekly and daily and whether it's taking pets on walks or house sitting. I live in a safe residential area and will take your pet on daily walks, I also work from home which means I am very flexible to work from any location and provides me with the ability to spend lots of time with your pet
“From the first time we met, and Ollie and Winnie met Dylan we felt an easiness. The dogs didnt response in a negitive way, but only wiggled, licked and snuggled with him. It made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Thank you Dylan for taking such good care of both our fur babies, but our house was still spotless and our flowers were watered and taken care of. We will use you again.”
“Oh my goodness things could not have gone any better. This was my very first time using Katherine/Rover and needing to leave my pet with someone. The whole idea of not being with my girl for an extended period was so uncomfortable to me. Katherine was so professional. She went above and beyond to help calm my nerves and make this process pleasant. It was so fantastic coming home to a well cared for home and pup. Katherine is not only kind but skilled. She made me want to look for reasons to need her again. When I was missing my girl while on the road. I had pictures and videos of her. I loved seeing my dog smile knowing she was not only ok, she was happy in in good capable hands. It was everything to us to not have to remove my dog from her home when we went somewhere she couldn't be with us. Thanks Katherine. Many thanks for a job well done. My heart is so full.”
“Zahara did such a great job with my puppy! He warmed up super quickly and I loved getting photos of what they were up to. Thank you so much, hope to have Kai taken care of again by you soon :)”
“Zoë was a great house sitter and took wonderful care of our dog so we could have a little weekend getaway. We got daily updates and photos of their adventures at home and she even asked if she could take her to the park if weather permitted. I appreciated her asking as our dog is unsure of the parks so I gave her suggestions for inside playing and that worked! The house was left spotless and didn’t even look like someone stayed over. Thank you Zoë, we can’t wait to book you again!”
“merry was great with my dog! they were very thorough and made sure they had al the necessary info to take care of him, and i was very confident that we would be well taken care of while i was gone! highly recommend (:”

“Max was amazing caring for Parker while we were away. Very responsive and considerate. Very communicative and provided daily updates. They left our home cleaner than when they arrived. We felt so secure and confident Parker was in good hands. Thanks to Max we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry. Thank you Max! We'll be booking them again on our next trip!”
“Susana was an amazing sitter for our puppy while we were on vacation for the week. He can be difficult with being a picky eater and demand barking but she handled it well. We will definitely use her again!”

“This is my first time using Rover and we were looking for an overnight sitter for mainly my little Genee girl who has never not had family around her. Anika filled that gap for us and did an amazing job. She put up with all my messages and provided pictures of Genee on walks and playing. She even included pics of the cat lounging around as usual. I was worried about leaving Genee for the first time but Anika made it much easier for me! I would highly recommend her and I will be calling upon her again when we need a sitter!”

“Our original housesitting plans fell through at the last minute and we were leaving for the airport in a couple hours. Tiffiny was quick to respond and come meet our puppy.

We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Interlachen
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Izzy and the care she provided for our two cats while we were away. Having someone stay in our home and care for our boys, especially with one of them having significant medical needs- requires an incredible amount of trust, and Izzy truly exceeded our expectations. Our cat Orange has Congestive Heart Failure and requires a very specific care routine. Before leaving, I prepared a detailed Care Packet with instructions for his medications, monitoring, and what to watch for. Izzy followed everything to a T. She administered his oral heart medications every morning and evening with ease and took his care extremely seriously. What impressed me even more was that she created her own tracker in her notes to record Orange’s resting respiratory rate (breaths per minute/BPM) and consistently monitored him according to the guidelines I provided. As a pet parent with a medically complex cat, having someone who was willing to be this attentive and thorough gave me an incredible amount of peace of mind while we were away. Izzy was also extremely communicative throughout the entire stay. She sent us updates and photos every day, kept us informed about how both boys were doing, and made it clear they were getting plenty of attention, cuddles, and love. ❤️ She was also incredibly respectful of our home. We never asked or expected her to clean, but she went out of her way to leave our home exceptionally clean and cared for. She was so thoughtful and detailed, and coming home to everything so beautifully taken care of was such an unexpected and appreciated gesture. She truly treated our home with the same level of care and respect that she gave our cats. Before our trip, I had asked Izzy if she would like to have anyone stay with her while we were away so she wouldn’t have to be alone, and she asked if her longtime boyfriend, Taytum, could accompany her. We were happy to have him, and he was incredibly kind, respectful, and trustworthy as well. We felt completely comfortable having them both in our home and around our boys. It is not easy for me to leave Orange because of his heart condition, so finding someone I can genuinely trust with his medications, respiratory monitoring, and overall well-being means everything to me. Izzy was responsible, attentive, communicative, caring, respectful, and incredibly thorough. I would absolutely trust Izzy with our boys and our home again without hesitation. I highly recommend her, especially to anyone looking for a sitter who is comfortable following detailed care instructions or caring for a pet with additional medical needs. We came home to two very loved and well-cared-for boys, an immaculate home, and the feeling that everything had truly been in good hands while we were away. We are so grateful for Izzy! 🧡💛

Kaeleigh was excellent and very communicative. One of our dogs had an ongoing GI issue that needed extra attention, meds, and unfortunately, clean-up. She handled it like a pro. The dogs took to her and behaved like she was part of the family. It was very easy to see that she had cared for them as we would have while we were away.
Maryola did such an amazing job watching my dog skyla! She gave me updates whenever i asked, and sent me pictures as well! I felt very confident leaving skyla with her! She did such a great job! Skyla is a nervous dog but when she sent me pictures of her she looked so happy and calm! So i would book with her if i were you! Thank you so much again Maryola!
Michelle was fantastic! She was very through with our dogs and made sure everyone was getting what they needed! Sent lots of pictures and even cleaned our house and outdoor area! She even looked after our goats and did a terrific job. It was so nice to not have to worry about our babies we were able to relax knowing they were in good hands
Andrew is great. He came over early to meet our 3 littles and do a walkthrough, which was very comforting for us. He also honored our animal-product-free-home rule and was very gracious about it. He stayed over NYE to help us with a housesitting gap, and we had zero issues! Thanks, Andrew!
Rebecca was so kind, gentle and my pup got such good care while I was away. He has epilepsy., so I have been really picky on who I leave him with and often just opt to drive so I can take him with me! Rebecca was such a great communicator, clean, respectful and really responsible for feeding times and medications. He really took to her, which says a lot about who Rebecca is. I will definitely book them again.
Mariah was AMAZING!! She stayed at our house for a week while we were out of town to take care of our 2 pets. She provided daily updates with photos and was responsive throughout the week. When we came home we couldn't believe how clean and untouched our house looked. We'll definitely use Mariah's services again if we need a sitter. She is the best!
Jaclyn is so great. Our dogs loved her, even our more difficult one. Jaclyn is excellent at being calm and attentive. She left the house spotless and played with the pups. She sent the perfect amount of updates and pics. Fancy and Elliot seemed to love her and we would definitely hire her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Interlachen
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Interlachen on Rover is $58 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 4,487 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Interlachen. 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 Interlachen 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 Interlachen 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 Interlachen 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.

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.
