“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!”
“Hailey is the best! She handled our wild husky so well! She provided us with updates, pictures, and kept us at ease during our trip! She is so nice and courteous and treated our home with care! It’s great to know we have someone we can trust our dog and home with!! Will def be using her again!”
“Jennica was awesome! Highly recommend! All 3 dogs loved her. She kept them entertained, safe, and happy the whole time we were gone and sent pictures and updates daily! It was such a relief for us to know they were in great hands.”
“Sarena was absolutely amazing with our girl. She kept us updated the whole time we were away with pictures and even brought in our packages and garbage cans. She cleaned up and washed the sheets and towels as well! We would 100% ask her to watch our pets again. We’re so lucky to have found her!”
About: Not only do I have 20+ years of experience with cats and dogs of all sizes (and ages!) but I'm also very comfortable with all types of reptiles, fish, birds and horses! I've been lucky enough to have tons of animals in my personal and professional life and it seems like such a gift to be able to get paid to spend time with God's creatures. I'm currently working remotely and I have tons of free time. I'm available all day every day at the moment and I'd love to spend my time with your pets! I have a one bedroom apt with two cats which I know is not ideal for most animals but I'm confident that I would be able to make them very comfortable!
“Cindy was an excellent sitter staying in our home. She took care of our two dogs like they were her own. She was very helpful in bringing our packages in and more importantly our two girls got lots of love and attention. We will definitely use her to stay with our dogs again! Highly recommend!”
“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! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Jennifer is the cat whisper and gives total devotion to your pet. Words cant express the enjoyment in my heart when they bonded and I knew after the first day of just meet n grèet she was in great hands. Thank you so much.”
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
“Joli was fantastic with my "special needs" big boy. He's loving but can be a handful. She is like the dog whisperer and even loved that he slept with her with his head on her back! He has severe separation anxiety so when she needed to run out, she took him with her - he's great in cars. I will definitely be reaching out to her again, as I travel a lot for work and need a reliable sitter who can be at home most of the time.”
“Rita was wonderful! She took care of our three dogs for 3 nights in our home. She took lots of pictures and gave us updates throughout the day. She also left our home very tidy. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I have walked different sized and aged dogs while volunteering at the Humane Society. I love high energy dogs because they help make sure I get my exercise for the day 🙂 I strive to provide the best care and give the most time to your dogs. I create plans based on your dog's needs and not vice versa. I know it's important to make sure dogs stay happy while in my care. I monitor your dog's health and update you as soon as I see anything out of the ordinary to ensure everything is running smoothly. I currently work part time. It's easy for me to do walks in the morning and evening and night time and but I am able to board any time of the week as my boyfriend is able to help as well. I have a large fenced yard and live in a quiet street and neighborhood. There is plenty of space to rest and relax and to go for long walks together.
“Beverly was a wonderful caregiver to our elderly pup. We could tell he was very comfortable with her and she treated him with love and kindness as if he were her own. We would highly recommend her to everyone who has pets to be cared for.”
“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! 🐾”
“Mr. Jason was absolutely amazing in taking care of my husky. He followed all my instructions and went above and beyond, taking my boy on walks down the trail. If you want someone who will be attentive to your dogs needs and provide them with all the love, cuddles, and attention, this is the sitter to book. I have booked several sitters before on this app, but I dont think my boy has ever loved and missed a sitter before. He definitely misses hanging out with mr Jason.”

“Taylor and Bruno are great exceptional dog sitters. They were prompt and communicative from scheduling the meetup to staying on track with my puppers needs along with updates. I opted for an in house sitter for a short staycation since my dog gets anxious with quick changes and they were super respectful and left my place better than they found it. Would definitely recommend them!”

Audra was great with Zeus. He had a rough first night I was gone with stress. She handled it very well. From then on he was very happy. She gave me good updates throughout the week. I appreciate her spending g time with him and making him comfortable with her while I was away. I will definitely call her again when I go away!! Thank you Audra.

Becky was extremely attentive and caring towards my anxious dog. She built a strong rapport with him, and he followed her around the house like a shadow. Becky communicated with me daily and needed little to no direction in her caretaking. I plan on hiring Becky again as we travel frequently.
Sovan was perfect. He stayed with our dog at our home for roughly 12 days. He kept our dogs and our plants and kept them happy and healthy the whole time. He sent daily pics and videos while we were gone and was quick to respond to texts. When we got back, it was so awesome to come home to a clean house too. After having felt unable to travel out of anxiety over what to do with our dog, it's amazing to feel that we have someone we can trust to take care of our Dennis and our home.
Amanda is LOVED by us and by our two Goldens! She takes exceptional care of the dogs and our home and communicates to us regarding anything important or concerning. Amanda is honest, reliable, and trustworthy, not to mention a great company to our dogs. We feel at ease knowing she’s watching over things while we’re away!
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!!
We had such a great experience with Paola! She took amazing care of our pup and kept us updated. On top of that, we came home to a clean house, which was such a nice surprise. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands—highly recommend!
Madison went above and beyond during her stay at my house. Communication was great, she sent so many pictures and videos. I know my dog Nash had a great week with her and got so many cuddles. She left my house better than she found it. I highly recommend her for any service!

FAQs for House Sitting - Largo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Largo on Rover is $47.08 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,775 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Largo. 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 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 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.
