“Charlie house sat for us for a week. He took amazing care of our cat and dog. Charlie was very professional and an excellent communicator. When we got home, the pets were happy and the house was immaculate. I highly recommend Charlie for pet sitting. We'll be using his services again!”
“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”
“Jason was a fantastic sitter for our 2 dogs! He came through for us on a last minute request for house sitting after a previous sitter canceled on right before our trip. I have 2 herding breed dogs so they are hyper and can be a handful, especially our 8 month old puppy, but Jason handled everything like a champ. He was amazing with communication, kept us updated with notes and pictures, and most importantly took great care of my dogs. I would absolutely recommend Jason and will contact him again in the future.”
“Heidy took such good care of of our dog and cat while we were away. Our dog is anxious and does not like change and she was so happy being with Heidy, who stayed at our house to keep them company. We would definitely use Heidy again!”
“Where to begin! We hired Rachel to house sit for a week while we went on vacation. Rachel was just wonderful! This was my first time not only using Rover but also my first time seeking out a dog sitter for an extended period of time. I was nervous about how the process was going to go, however i had nothing to worry about. Rachel was very attentive with my boys and spent plenty of time hanging out with them and making sure that they had lots of cuddle and play time. She provided me multiple photos daily and kept me up to date with everything happening back home while i was away on my vacation. Because of that I was able to be relaxed and stress free knowing my boys were in great loving care with Rachel. We returned home and our home was cleaner than we left it! I will absolutely be hiring Rachel in the future for all of my needs (drop in visits and house sitting) Book with confidence knowing your pets are in good care under Rachel!!”
“Jenny did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 cavapoos! She sent us lots of photos and communicated with us often. She also left the house spotless! We look forward to having her come again soon!”
“Malek was amazing! Both Xochi and Vinny were well taken care of and the house was left behind immaculate! Xochi and Vinny have found their go to dog sitter, highly recommend!”
“Helena continues to be a blessing for us. This is now our 4th time booking her to stay at our house (cat & dog) while we travel and our 4th time leaving her a 5-star review. Excellent communication before and during the trip; absolutely loved by our pets; and completely comfortable having her stay in our home while we're gone with full confidence that everything will be taken care of as if it were her own. All instructions for care were followed and she will message if there is any question needing confirmation. You really can't do any better than booking with her.”
“Jennifer has been so wonderful and amazing, she has helped us several times to take care of our girls while we traveled, and also kept such great care of our home. Thank you Jennifer!”
“I cannot rave enough about Bianca! She took such good care of our fur babies and home. She gave me updates, asked questions, and shared pictures of the pups. She was great with our anxious dog and with administering the meds. She really helped us enjoy our trip by setting our minds at ease knowing that the pups were well taken care of! I am looking forward to working with Bianca again!”
“Omar and Claudia are exceptional! They took excellent care of my puppy Ellie while I was away on a weekend trip. After our initial meet-and-greet, my husband and I felt comfortable and confident that my fur baby would be in good hands. Omar and Claudia are professional adults who are very polite and have kind, caring hearts. As a frequent traveler, I feel so fortunate to have met Omar and Claudia, whom I can trust, and who can give good care and love to my baby Ellie.”
“Duncan was wonderful, very attentive to the unusual needs of our 8 year old GSD, and very helpful with his ball chasing addiction! We highly recommend Duncan. His dog knowledge, love, and attention to their needs is palpable.”
“Joseph was caring and attentive from the first meeting. He wanted to ensure that he knew everything he knew to know to take the best care of our fur baby Jazz. During his time with her he took the highest quality care and checked in regularly to let us know how she was doing. We will definitely book him again and highly recommend him to everyone!!”
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs of many types and currently have the privilege of caring for my three year old hound mix rescue. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and have a genuine love for animals. I’m generally available most nights and weekend days. I also remotely during the week and can usually provide drop in services for clients near my home. For drop in services your home and your pets will be treated with the utmost care and attention, and I’ll provide multiple photos to you promptly.
“Tabatha was absolutely perfect!!!! She was prompt for the arrival time, she kept us updated with photos and messages. We felt very relaxed knowing our babies were in good hands!”
“Ana G. was wonderful with Ollie, who has severe separation anxiety. She played with him on the floor, which he loves to do. After playing, Ollie was tired, and decided to snuggle with Ana. I think it was a really good experience for Ollie and me. I would definitely request Ana G. again.”
About: I have dogs of my own that I take on daily walks. I have two husky’s (11 and 6 yrs) and a pitbull I had for 13.5 yrs (she crossed the rainbow bridge). I enjoy going out for walks because I know it’s a dogs favorite time of the day. I’ve taken my friends and family’s dogs on walks while they’ve been out of town. I’m looking to walk dogs in the evening when I go for my afternoon walks around the neighborhood. There are times where I may have availability during the day as well. I’m flexible and will do my best to fit you into my schedule. I love dogs and I treat all dog as if they are my own. I’ll make sure to make them feel comfortable with me and give them the attention they need.
“Karen was great! She reinforced training with my puppy, was patient with our senior dog, and sent tons of pictures and videos. You can tell she’s experienced and loves what she does. I will definitely be using her again!”

I cannot say enough good things about Alexandra! She was on time every time, gave extra time and attention, and really went the extra mile for my three dogs. She was an excellent communicator when my dog didn’t want to take his meds and problem solved through it. Would 100% hire her again.
Erin house sat with our three dogs, cat and two parakeets for a week. She came over for an additional meet and greet to talk to our daughter about her cat’s special needs. Erin walked all the dogs, played with the cat and watered and fed the parakeets. We felt good knowing she was taking care of all our pets and managing other things at the house. We will definitely have Erin help us out again.
David did a phenomenal job caring for my somewhat anxious dog. He clearly knew how to keep him relaxed while I was gone. David did a great job sending me pics while I was gone and my home was in better condition than when I left. 10 out of 10! I would definitely rehire David again.
Leah was wonderful with Ruby and our family. She made us feel comfortable sending numerous videos, pictures and communicating with us. She took care to make Ruby comfortable since she is often shy with new people. She took her for walks and played her favorite games. We highly recommend her to all who are looking for someone to take care of their special pet.
This is our third time having Helena watch our dogs and once again she did a phenomenal job! We came home to two happy pups! She especially does such a great job with our chihuahua mix who is picky and anxious but is always very happy with Helena watching her.
Karen was incredible with our 2 dogs. We are typically stressed traveling from bad experiences with rovers but Karen was really the best. Very communicative with tons of updates. She took amazing care of our boys and we will absolutely look to use her again in the future. Highly highly recommend.
Rachel is, indeed, very energetic & outgoing. I was delighted to see how friendly my dog felt towards her after our trip was over. He (& I) will definitely request her again for another trip. My cats are not as easily won over but she managed to help them feel better thru their huge separation anxiety & they were doing well when we returned home. Rachel was terrific about communicating with me thru out & sending photos.
Xena was great! We just moved into town and she made it so easy and stress free to know our fur kiddo was well taken care of when going out of town. She was forgiving of the chaos of our house due to the unpacking and was able to support Levi as a senior. Will be booking again when we need a dog sitter!
Zaena was a fantastic house sitter for my dog Maisy. It was Maisy’s first time with a house sitter and Zaena was great about Maisy’s medications, schedule, and behavioral quirks. She was very communicative and sent updates and pictures/videos daily. I look forward to having Zaena watch Maisy again.
Diana is absolutely amazing with dogs. We have a 3 month old puppy & one of us has always been with her. This was the first time we had to leave her alone & I was very anxious (even decided to stay home with our puppy). But from the moment our pup saw Diana she was all over her, snuggling up to her & licking her face. Diana sent us pix of our pup & her - & our puppy was fast asleep on Diana's lap. I totally recommend Diana - she's incredible with dogs.

FAQs for House Sitting - Leisure World
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Leisure World on Rover is $33.3 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 11,536 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Leisure World. 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 Leisure World 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 Leisure World 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 Leisure World 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
