“Susanne is such a blessing! She was able to house sit with our 3 pups in a last minute time of need. We appreciate her very much! She is professional & respectful to say the least! 110% recommend!”

“A very caring and reliable pet sitter. Laura has become a second mom to our Chloe. She consistently stayed in contact through our time away with updated pictures and info on their daily activities. It helps knowing that your “babies” are happy, healthy and with a genuine loving person while you are away. Thank you Laura!!!”

About: I've cared for dogs & cats for 5 years through helping family, friends, neighbors, and my own pets. My experiencing includes feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning up after pets, and making sure pets feel safe while their owners are away. I understand the importance of reliable communication and will provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for walks & drop ins anytime, including evenings and weekends! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, provide plenty of attention, and ensure pets have fresh water and a safe environment.

“As newcomers to the area, we were nervous about leaving our dogs with someone we didn’t know. Ashley put our minds at ease by sending regular updates and photos so we knew they were in great hands. When a few severe thunderstorms stressed one of our dogs, she reached out right away, asked all the right questions about how we normally would handle it and made sure our pup was as comfortable as possible. We appreciated her thoughtful communication and care she gave our dogs!”

“Kassandra arrived on time and was very sweet. She asked questions regarding our dogs care which I liked. Received several texts of our girl going for a walk, ride in her stroller, etc. which was very much appreciated. She followed all instructions & our oldie was very content when we got back. Would recommend Kassandra & would use her again!”

“Jill was excellent with Peanut & Biscuit. She constantly kept in touch with us throughout our weekend away with texts and pictures. Thank you Jill for taking care of our babies!!”


About: For the past four years, I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, and fish, including pets that require medication, overnight stays, or a little extra love and attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and helping families feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they're away. As the proud pet parent of a Black Lab and a new kitten, I understand that our pets are family. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, care, and attention every step of the way. I work Monday through Friday as a teacher in Wesley Chapel, but my weekends are mostly free. I am available to drop in before and after work times typically around 7am and after 4:30pm to help with any drop in or over night needs. I currently provide care exclusively in my clients' homes through drop-in visits and overnight stays. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, where they can maintain their normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I also follow any specific instructions, including administering medications if needed, so your pet receives the personalized care they're used to.
“Jasmine was honestly such a blessing… I didn’t have to worry about my dogs at all and they were absolutely loved as if they were her own. I got constant updates and I felt very comfortable that I didn’t have to worry. She was super reliable and a pleasure I would definitely book again.”

“This was the first time we ha Elizabeth watch our pup. Although it was only an overnight stay, our pup seems happy, all directions were followed, and she left the house with everything neat and clean. I would definitely give her a 👍thumbs up!”


“April was great with your dogs!! She was very communicative and always kept me updated so I could have some peace of mind while I was out of town for work. I will definitely hire her again!”

“Denise was excellent taking care of my dog, Kent. She went above and beyond for me to ensure peace of mind while I was away. Her communication on how my dog is doing was great. Kent was excited to see her every time she came. Definitely be repeating business with Denise.”

“Kelli went above and beyond to make sure our anxious kitties were taken care of and relaxed during our trip. She’s very personable and considerate.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little girl. Whether it was the neighbor’s Pomeranian, my dads cat, our my friend’s Airedale Terrior, I have had the fortunate pleasure of being entrusted in the care of people’s furry loved ones for years. I am experienced in walking and feeding dogs of various age and sizes (including breeds considered aggressive), feeding, cleaning litter boxes for cats, as well administering medicine. I personally love being able to load up the canine(s) in my care into my car for a trip to Starbucks in pursuit of a pup-cup or a trip to the park. Whether it be dogs or cats, I pride myself on loving any furry friend in my care as well as sharing photos and videos so you know your loved one is in good hands. I am experienced in taking care of households with one four-legged friend or households with several. I also volunteered for 3 years at an exotic animal sanctuary, having worked around tigers, bears, and wolves (though I sincerely hope no one has a tiger at home 😂) I work from home full-time with the occasional need to go into the office for a few hours. My schedule is flexible and I can block out my calendar accordingly to meet pet care needs. My weekends are free and open for pet care. I will personally meet with you before you require pet services and adhere to any safety measures you require in your home. I will happily provide text updates and photos so you can see your pet is happy and healthy.
“Carly is one of the most patient sitters we met. She gave our dogs time and love. They never felt more comfortable with any other sitter. I would recommend her to anybody who needs their pups taken care of. She was amazing taking care our pups at our place and considerate of their many quirks and needs.”

Pet care is our everyday life. We are up between 5:30 and 6am. The larger dogs get a 1.5 to 3 mile walk every morning. The smaller and older dogs get a walk to more suit their individual needs. After the morning walk its breakfast time with one more short out before we are off to work. The pups get an afternoon walk along with a longer evening walk before dinner. Then shortly before bedtime we go outside one more time. This is normal day, but will be modified around the pups needs and our schedule. All pups are treated as they are part of our family while in our care. They get loved, pets and playtime. We allow all pups on the sofa and bed (unless asked by the owner not too).

We utilized Laura’s house sitting services and could not be happier! This was Laura’s first time with our 3 pups and she did a great job! Our busy pups were relaxed and happy when we came home! The house was left clean. She communicated well throughout the stay & sent lots of great pictures. 100% recommend Laura!

Lindsay did a great job house sitting over the weekend with our 3 pups. She kept them on their schedules. She spent time cuddling and exercising with them. We came home to happy relaxed pups and the house was as clean as we left it! We highly recommend Lindsay!

FAQs for House Sitting - Land O' Lakes
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Land O' Lakes on Rover is $48.15 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 3,526 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Land O' Lakes. 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 Land O' Lakes 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 Land O' Lakes 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 Land O' Lakes 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.
