“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!”
“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!”
“Isabella did a great job taking care of my two dogs and my home while we were on vacation for a week. My dogs were happy when we got home. Isabella made sure the house looked great too! I would recommend her without hesitation!”
“Laura is amazing! She takes such great care of our boy and our home and she’s always so accommodating. We have complete peace of mind while we’re away knowing he’s in her care.”
“Aaron is a great! He is so responsible unfortunately we had a problem with our home lock and he handled it with ease. He communicates well and lets us know our fur babies are well taken care of. I will continue to rebook Aaron!”
“Kelly is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my very needy cat while I was away. From the beginning, she demonstrated a truly professional and thoughtful approach—following clear procedures and making sure every detail was handled with care. What I appreciated most was how consistently she sent me updates and photos, which really gave me peace of mind and made me feel connected even from afar. Knowing my cat was in such good hands let me relax completely during my time away. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Jayla was great from the start. She was very communicative through the app when setting up our first meet and greet and continued after booking. We have two dogs and they were very comfortable with her. Jayla sent pictures and updates during her stay. She was also a great guest in our home and left the house better than we left it. I recommend Jayla and will be using her again!”
“Ryann was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ares! She was sweet, attentive, punctual, and followed his routine thoroughly. We felt completely at ease knowing Ares was in such capable and caring hands. We highly recommend Ryann and will definitely book her again!”
“Outstanding care for Scarlett and our home over the weekend! Greatly appreciate administering multiple eye drops for her glaucoma care, stream of great pictures, and the updates! Will book again soon!”
“As always, Jasmine was absolutely wonderful and caring with our puppy, Ares! She takes such good care of him, plays with him, and pays close attention to all his needs. I love getting her updates and photos while we are away. We absolutely love Jasmine and cannot recommend her enough!❤️”
“This was my first time using Rover. Maddyn was great with my pets. She was easy to communicate with. She sent pictures and updates. She asked questions when needed. She brushed Bear and Dakota, shook out their beds. She swept and bought the mail in everyday. She let me know I received a package that had to be refrigerated and she put it in the fridge for me before I even had a chance to let her know about it. I will use Maddyn again!”
About: Pets have been a part of my life since day one - I've rarely not had a dog, a cat, or both at home. That's a lifetime of knowing what animals need, how they think, and how to make them feel safe and loved when their owners are away. . Your pet won't just be looked after - they'll be in good hands with someone who loves to care for animals. My schedule is open and flexible, so I can work around what works best for you and your pet. I'm available most days and happy to coordinate drop-in times that fit your routine. Drop-ins are done at your home, so your pet gets to stay in the environment they're already comfortable in. I follow your instructions to the letter - feeding schedules, routines, off-limit areas, whatever you need. Your home and your pet are treated with full respect every visit.
“This was the first time we used Rover and we are very pleased. Erin was fantastic. She was very responsible, and communicative and responded to our texts very quickly. She loves animals and immediately took to our dachshunds and they really liked her as well. The pups were great when we arrived home and our house looked like we never left. I would definitely use Erin again if need be and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved caring for them. I was the main caregiver for my two Westies for many years, taking care of everything from daily walks and feeding to baths, brushing, and giving them medication as they got older. They taught me a lot about being patient, sticking to a routine, and understanding that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’ve also pet sat for friends, neighbors, and local families. Whether it’s walks, visits, or caring for multiple pets at once, I always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own! I’m currently a college student, so my weekdays can be a little busier depending on my class schedule, but I’m most available on weekends. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and communicate with you so we’re on the same page. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets!❤️ I'm currently a college student, so my weekdays can be a little busier because of classes, but I'm happy to work around my schedule to make sure your pet gets the care they need! Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or house sitting, I'm flexible and always do my best to accommodate your pet's routine. I'm also much more available on weekends, so I have plenty of flexibility for longer stays or last-minute bookings. I'll always communicate with you and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. When I'm house sitting, I like to stick to your pet's normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. I'll make sure they're fed on time, get plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and lots of love throughout the day. If they have any medications or special instructions, I'll follow them carefully. I also keep your home clean and treat it with respect, and I can send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Land O' Lakes
We are so happy with the kind of service Lindsay gives to our dog and our home. Not only was she incredibly conscious and communicative with us while we were away, we came back to a home that looked like we never left. This is the kind of person you want to entrust your animal and home with. We have another trip planned next month and know that we will have a sense of peace while we are gone for an extended time. Thank you girl for being the best sitter!
Laura was fantastic! She took amazing care of our spunky bernedoodle, Rio, sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the weekend, and left our house spotless. We came home to a happy pup and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We’d absolutely book her again!

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 $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 3,556 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.

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.
