“Anthony was great! Took good care of a Denver with lots of walks and trips to our dog park. Very easy to communicate with him , it was nice to know Denver was in good hands. He even sent pictures everyday of her!”
“Gretchen watched our dog and cat over a long weekend and did a fantastic job. Our pets loved her company, she was a great communicator, and she kept our house super tidy! 10/10! I can’t recommend Gretchen enough and we hope she is available next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you Gretchen for taking such good care of our pets!”
“My kitties and doggos loved Jennica!! She came for an overnight sit and took such good care of them. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and was very independent. I had no worries leaving them in her care, and I know they were sad that I came back and Jennica left 😄 The house was spotless too! I’ll be having her back for sure!”
About: I have been around dogs ever since I was little, I always had a dog that I took care of, and I have so much love not only for dogs, but for all animals. I enjoy spending time with animals, walking them, and proving all the care they need from me. I also have a dog myself who is the sweetest boy. Most of my time I spend working from home, taking care of my pets, and going on walks and workout classes. Which are mostly in the morning. During the day, I try to go on walks at least 3 times a day, which would also be a great time for dogs to go on their daily walks and to potty. I have a fenced backyard, with netting all the way over the top, so no pet can leave or come in unless they’re let in. I have a small dog who loves other does and 2 cats who kind of just mind their business most of the time. Both are very friendly and love other animals and pets which they have been exposed to quite a few times. Whatever the pets might need, I’ll do my best to give them exactly that.
“Linda is wonderful! She truly loves dogs. She treated Flo like her own. We canceled this bokking once because of Hurricane Milton then rebooked after the storm had passed and we made it through unscathed. Linda, however, had lost power at her house. We will definitely book with Linda again-- if she is available! She is understandably in high demand.”
“Rita did an excellent job taking care of our loved one. Always in constant contact when massaged and was able to take care of our pup's needs with the instructions we left for her. Highly recommended and looking forward to the next time.”
“James did a great job with my dogs while house sitting! He was communicative, reliable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dogs are used to a lot of attention and company, and he made sure they were well cared for and comfortable. He also left my home clean and exactly as I left it, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I’d definitely book with him again. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups! 🐾”
“Shannon was great, she took great care of Denver . She was a happy pup on my return and was nice to be away knowing she was in good hands. She is very good with dogs, and gave her walks and play dates at our dog park, even sent pictures everyday day of her activities.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Aubrey! She came through for us at the last minute, was flexible enough to do a meet and greet on short notice, and was able to care for both of our animals. Aubrey is experienced, knowledgeable, and has prior veterinary medical knowledge, which gave us so much peace of mind. We were especially nervous about leaving our dog alone, but Aubrey was absolutely phenomenal and made the entire experience so much easier. She sent pictures, provided daily updates, and was always kind, respectful, and attentive to our pets’ needs. It was clear that our animals were in great hands, and we are so grateful to have found someone we can trust. We would highly recommend Aubrey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and knowledgeable pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Stephanie stayed in our home with our two boys for 3 nights and was absolutely amazing! She sent pictures, updates and was so kind. Our hearts were at ease knowing they were in great hands while we were out of state. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Becky was a fantasy dog sitter during our 11 night trip out of the country. She sent us photos and updates every day and immediately brought up any concerns. She took our pup for walks even though we have a big back yard and gave him lots of pets and snuggles. She went above and beyond bringing in our mail and watering the plants too. We’ve already booked her for our next out of town vacation.”
About: I have taken care of pets for Family and Friends, I go over and feed and play with the dogs and cats. I do have a 2 yr old Havamalt of my own named Ozzy I am currently unemployed looking for a full time job, I do have all the time now to pet sit your dog or cat in My home or yours. I live in a condo, I do have a friendly Havamalt named Ozzy who is 2 years old. He is very playful, I do have references available
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always enjoyed caring for them. I’ve also worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility, which gave me experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and temperaments. Outside of that, I’ve regularly watched dogs for friends and family. I’m comfortable caring for reactive dogs, dogs who need a little extra attention, and special-needs dogs who require medication. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I make it a priority to provide patient, attentive, and loving care. I currently work Saturday through Monday, which leaves me available Tuesday through Friday for pet care! I have flexibility throughout those days and am happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I’m happy to coordinate visits and care around their needs. I’m also happy to discuss scheduling in advance to make sure everything works smoothly for both you and your pets! I prefer to watch pets in the clients home. I get up in the morning and let the dogs outside if that means taking them for a walk or just letting them in a fenced yard. After they’re fed i can adjust to however active your dog is. We can either go in adventures or sit in the couch all day it’s fine with me!
“Wow! She delivered a great experience for my babies once again. She stayed with our babies for 4 days and she communicated with me on a daily basis. She followed our instructions very well, and our babies looked super happy when we got home, exhausted from all the fun they had with their amazing Nanny ☺️. She is our way to go every time we have to leave town. Highly recommend her to anyone planning a getaway or just simply a long day out of the house. She answers text in a fast manner. Thanks again Danielle. See you soon, I’m sure the babies will miss you greatly. 😉”
About: I have had dogs in my home since the day I was born. My family owned, a Husky, Rottweilers, Boston terriers, and a Shitzu over the years. As an adult I have owned and cared for a Pitbull boxer mix for 8 years, cat sitted for a dear friend for over a year, and another friends small dog. Animals always warm up to me quickly and enjoy my attentive presence with them. I am currently not working, since I have an (older) dog at home it is important we get daily activity in! This usually includes a walk between 1-2 miles or an hour or so at the dog park. I have a fenced dog park at my apartment, along with 1 dog in the home. She is docile and very friendly, but not very playful. No stairs, and a lanai for the animals to lounge around.
About: Hi! I’m Felicia, and I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, keeping routines, giving plenty of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m especially attentive to the little things—your pet’s normal routine, behavior, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust in your home and with your pets, so communication and reliability are very important to me. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime and companionship, or simply a calm and loving presence while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can rely on for their care. 🐶🐾❤️ I work a full time job and have a pet of my own. But I will always take any just as serious as taking care of my own pet. I will pop in on my way to work to walk, feed, spend time with your fur baby and on my way home as well. My days off will be completely free. I know owners get anxious when leaving their fur babies behind and so do the babies when they are left alone for too long. Your four legged child will always be safe with me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Largo
Katie went above and beyond for us when we needed a house sitter. She communicated frequently, spent a lot of time caring for the animals, and the house was clean and tidy when we got home. Above all, you can tell she really cares for animals and is a really cool person. I cannot recommend her enough, and I will keep inviting her back, because I’m sure my boys will miss her!
Jennifer was absolutely fantastic! We tasked her with our 3 doggos, one being a 8 week old puppy. Her communication was exceptional. She sent us videos and pictures so we were updated on the dogs day! She was absolutely fantastic and I would recommend her to everyone!
Amanda, we cannot thank you enough for taking such exceptional care of our two Goldens and home! Even through a week of rain and unexpected irrigation repairs you were gracious and understanding. I hope you know that you are stuck with us because we will never find anyone more responsible, trustworthy, or loving!
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! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Diane was amazing! We were in a bit of a jam because our former sitter quit after we had already purchased plane tickets. Diane found someone to watch her dog, so she could stay with our 3. She was here day and night, other than running errands. She sent pics and updates throughout the day and was very communicative. One of the dogs was having digestive issues, so Diane picked up chicken and rice at my request. She also made him some homemade bone broth because he wasn't drinking much water, and she didn't want him to get dehydrated. Our house was very clean when we returned. Diane went above and beyond for us and the pups, and we are so grateful! Highly recommend!!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Largo is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $83 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 Largo 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 Largo 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 Largo 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Largo. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
