“Karen was awesome, communicative and appropriate. She kept me up to date with pics, asked valid questions and showed genuine concern for my dogs and my home. Highly recommended!!!”
“Teresa is an incredible dog and house sitter. She sat our critters (dog, cat, chickens, and gecko) while we were away on a short vacation. She made sure our pup was happy and secure while we were away. She secured the hens each night and made sure to turn on their light as needed. Teresa’s communication was incredible throughout the whole process. We trusted her completely and would strongly recommend get.”

“Karen is everything you want when leaving an anxious weimaraner alone with a pet sitter for the first time. She’s communicative, sending updates by text and video to keep the anxious pet parents at ease. She’s compassionate, understanding Poppy’s need to speak out loud and sleep really close. She’s calming for all of us. We are confident we have found the perfect dog sitter.”
“Gema was so accommodating with my schedule. I booked last minute, she came for a meet and greet, listened with intent to care instructions, and provided me with lots of photos and updates. Gave medications to my elder dog and gave lots of attention to the playful pup. Would book again. 12/10”

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
“Philip is amazing with my two dogs. He is very attuned to there needs and he definitely leaves my pups in the same condition I left them. Highly recommended”
“Nadia was so great to work with. She made our dogs feel comfortable and gave frequent updates and photos. She is easy to communicate with and was able to navigate our complicated situation with our 4 dogs and handled our reactive dogs super well! We will always choose Nadia moving forward to trust with our babies!”
“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!”
“What more can we say other than thank you for all the love she showed our dogs. Absolutely the best service, dogs clearly enjoy her love and affection along with her communication throughout the dog sit. I absolutely will ask her to look after our dogs again and suggest everyone else use her services!”

“Brittani was easy to communicate with and accommodating to my schedule. She took great care of my pet and kept me updated throughout her stay. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others!”
“Brooklyn was so good with our pups. They’re both older now and require more care. She handled all their needs so well and was always responsible about communicating with us as needed. Also appreciate how many photos she sends of our dogs through the days. Definitely recommend her services if she is available.”
“Lyla did a great job: she was willing to come meet the pups beforehand, showed up on time to house/dog sit, sent photos and updates, and left the house and dogs clean and happy. We hope to use Lyla for future dog care needs and highly recommend her to others.”
About: I have many years of experience caring for cats and dogs, and it's something that I genuinely enjoy. I am an animal lover in the deepest sense, and I take their happiness and wellbeing very seriously. I am experienced in administering oral and topical medication as well as caring for puppies, kittens, and senior animals. I am self-employed and work remote, so my schedule is very flexible. I'm available for drop-ins and overnight stays in your home, as well as dog walks. I am unavailable on Tuesday evenings from 6:30pm-9:30pm, but am available before and after those times. Before caring for your pet for the first time, we'll schedule a meet and greet so we can go over all of the details and specific needs and any questions you or I may have. I am a clear, transparent communicator and will send you updates every day that your pet is in my care.
“Kendra was AMAZING! I had requested a house sit and could not have been happier. She spent plenty of time with my 2 fur babies while my partner and I went out of the country for a week. We got plenty of pictures and updates which gave us some peace of mind. They got the love and attention I was seeking for them and I am very satisfied with my booking with Kendra, would absolutely rebook.”

Ren was fantastic! They really took care with my two senior cats to make sure they're needs were met. They were flexible and gave good feedback for adjusting the cat food when my boys were being picky. I'm sure my boys felt at home with Ren, even if it took some getting used to with me not being there. Ren was also respectful and took care of the house in my absence. I had a good return. Thank you Ren!
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Interlachen is $58 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $125 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work 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.
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.
