“Olivia was the absolute best. She did such a wonderful job taking care of my Maddie. She did a great job communicating and sent me daily updates. I highly recommend her. Thank you for taking such great care of my sweet pup Olivia ❤️”
“This was my first time leaving my year old Malti poo with anyone and I sure hit the jackpot with Lauren! Wow. She went above and beyond any expectation.. She was on time stayed at my home the entire time. She kept me updated all day with photos and videos.. She is sweet as can be. I’ve never imagined not worrying constantly while away from my baby but I felt more than comfortable from the moment meeting Lauren more so Frankie was more than comfortable with her… I was worried he would want to go home with her: ) Shd spoiled my baby .. I hope she will become our regular sitter whenever we need to go out of town..I would highly recommend Lauren..”
“Ryker house sat for us when went back to the UK. He looked after our three dogs 2 beagles Benji & Cooper and our CaviPooChon BoBo. All three are very friendly but Cooper is super mischievous. Ryker caught our eye because he's volunteered at the Wolf Sanctuary & Humane Society, he also did an internship at a veterinary hospital. From our first meeting Ryker inspired confidence in us and his rapport with dogs was very evident. During his stay he took everything in his stride and wasn’t phased by anything. Cooper locked him out of the house. (Coops can open & shut doors), Benji became ill with an upset stomach, there were more hurdles but what ever the hurdle Ryker dealt with it in an assured and calm manner. He gave us updates each day, we hadn’t asked for daily updates but we were pleased that he sent them. We have used dog sitters before and by a massive margin Ryker has been the best yet!! We were blessed to have had him. Would I use him again 100% YES. Would I recommend Ryker 150% YES! His ambition is to become a Vet, and I, for one would not hesitate in using him when he qualifies.”
“I can't recommend Christine enough—she's an absolute dream of a pet sitter! From the moment we met for the initial greet, my two dogs were wagging their tails like crazy, and I knew they’d be in great hands. During my trip, Christine sent daily updates with adorable photos and videos of my dogs playing and enjoying her company. Christine’s communication was top-notch—quick responses to my random check-ins. If you're looking for someone who treats your fur baby like their own, book Christine now. I’ll definitely be repeat client!”
“This is our 2nd time using Ana and she is just absolutely wonderful. I cannot say enough great things about her. Our little guy loves her so much and she takes such great care of him while we are away. She sends lots of pics and updates and we are never worried being away when he’s in Ana’s care. She gives meds as needed, feeds accordingly, takes our senior pup out many times a day to potty as this is needed for a senior dog, defrosts and measures out his frozen fresh food and monitors his water intake. Senior dogs just need so much more attentive care. She is so sweet and flexible, we had a delayed flight and didn’t get home until 3am and Ana graciously stayed and was happy to accommodate us and stayed with our baby until we got home. She is quick to respond and just a really kind person. Leaving your baby in the care of someone else is always very scary so we are thankful beyond’s words to Ana. Thank you Ana from the bottom of our hearts!!”
“Christian is the best house sitter ever! Kobe and Sam love him. He sent us photos and took them for walks regularly. We will book him for all future trips we may schedule. Thank you, Christian!”
About: I have rescued many animals and I show each animal the utmost love & dedication. Let’s set up a meet and greet! I’m outgoing, pay attention to detail and excited to meet you & care for your beloved dogs/cats just like they are my own (which means lots of love and personalized attention and kisses). I raised my family in Kansas for 21 years and moved to Naples FL in 2021 when i became an empty nester. I will be happy to do extras for whatever care your pets need… so that you are worry- free knowing your pet is in great hands. Between caring for my own lovable bulldogs - I want to help you with your dogs - I can do frequent visits (even at odd times/late hours) and my overnight stays are a 5-hour sleepover time! I am able to go to your home to give your dog much love & attention. I pay attention to detail & am reliable. I’ll take pictures to send you while I’m caring for your doggie(s).
“This is the first time I have used Victor. He did an amazing job! I received all kinds of updates and pictures! My pups were definitely cared for and loved. I would definitely use Victor again!”
About: Hello! My name is Luis, and I am deeply passionate about the well-being and happiness of our furry friends. As a dedicated pet care enthusiast and animal advocate, I have always had a special connection with dogs and cats. I believe that pets are not just animals but cherished members of our families, deserving of love, care, and attention I have plenty of time at the end of my week. I’m very flexible with different hours you request and if you give notice of any changes it’s totally fine with me. I live in a gated condo community that has a dog park and also has a trail for a long walk. I have a cat that loves other animals.
About: Hi! I am Sara, and I just moved back to Naples after being out in the Southwest for the past few years. Originally from upstate NY, I lived in NYC for over 13 years, then I moved out to San Diego, then down to Naples, then out to Phoenix….and finally decided to come back to Florida to settle. However, I travel a lot as well, so I am able to provide services in other cities depending on my travel schedule. Growing up, I had a rabbit and a mini dachshund as pets. Currently, I am the proud mom of four adorable guinea pigs and 3 dogs (2 Corgis and an Aussie shepherd). My experience with animals is extensive. I began taking care of dogs and cats at a young age and by middle school I had a successful neighborhood pet-sitting service. Additionally, I attended farm camp (yes, that exists haha) from age 6-11, and at 13 years old, I started working at the same farm (as farm staff and as a counselor for the kids' day and overnight camp programs). The farm was primarily a dairy farm, home to a herd of Jersey, Guernsey, and Holstein cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, guinea hens, ducks, and of course....plenty of dogs and cats. I worked there over 7 years and loved every minute of it. The responsibility and work-ethic that comes from animal husbandry is priceless - not only do I greatly value manual labor, but I also appreciate the dedication and daily grind that is intrinsic to farming and to ensuring that dependent animals' basic needs are met. Despite having lived in NYC, I still manage to spend time on farms and I travel extensively throughout the U.S., visiting and helping many friends/family that have different animals. Most recently, I have worked on a cattle ranch in Montana and goat dairy in Missouri, which were both a wonderful experiences. Since I have a full household of pets (and an human child) I am unfortunately unable to host any pets in my home. However, it is quite easy for me to get to places around the area, so I am happy to come to your home and take care of your pets. Sometimes, this is even better because then the animal(s) get to stay in the comfort of their home and don't experience the stress of a new environment, coupled with the absence of their owner! I am a very active person - so I look forward taking dogs out for long walks and playing with them! I prefer that we schedule services a week in advance (as specified), but I know that emergencies happen and sometimes you need somebody last minute. I am happy to occasionally provide last-minute services, especially since I have a somewhat flexible work schedule and my mode of transportation is quick! Most importantly, I have a deep respect and love for all animals. I look forward to meeting your creatures and you can rest assured that they will be in fabulous hands! I work full time but my hours are flexible. Additionally, I travel a lot, so I will update my location if I plan to be in a certain place for more than 5 days. Please do not hesitate to reach out with a booking inquiry. I always do my best to accommodate. The guinea pigs are in a nice hutch. The dogs stay in the kitchen when I am not home and they sleep inside the house.
About: My partner and I have cared for animals since we were children. Both of us love animals and look forward to taking care of many more pets in the future. Currently pet care is my main priority and would become my routine. My partner and I have been looking for an opportunity to be around animals more and this seems like the perfect job! My partner and I currently have two cats that we love with our whole hearts. We have also watched other animals in the past such as dogs, reptiles, and other small animals (guinea pigs). I have administered medications before for cats i have watched. At about 10 is when I started house sitting because a neighbor was going out of town. All animals in my care are treated like my own family.

“Wonderful!!! Toni is the sweetest! So kind! She truly loved and cared for our dog in every way. I think our sweet pup was sad to see us come home. lol. Thank you Toni! The best!”
“Jose was sooooo amazing. I felt so at peace leaving my dog Rex with him for three weeks! He kept me updated constantly with texts and with videos. I will be using him again in the future. Literally such a stress reliever to find someone who I could trust in Naples. Highly highly recommend! Thanks again to Jose and his family for taking care of my pup.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lely Resort
I was out of the country for 12 days and Athena stayed at my house with my French bulldog. I’d never been gone away that long, and it was a big stress relief to have her watch him at my house. She is professional, reliable and followed instructions that I gave her. She communicated with me while I was away and I felt confident leaving my dog in her care. I would recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting services.
Amber was great with our 5 year old bernedoodle. She stayed with him for almost two weeks and treated him like family. She even worked on socializing him with other dogs while we were away. We would recommend her to anyone and will be using her again next time we need help.
Jane has a big heart for our pups, even our more difficult little girl, Lucy! We thank her for her loving care while we traveled out of state again. They miss her already and our little girl misses the belly rubs Jane so lovingly gave her. Thank you Jane for having such a heart for animals even the difficult ones! Bless you! Kathy B.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lely Resort
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Lely Resort is $62 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $111 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.
As of November 2026, there are 572 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lely Resort. 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 Lely Resort 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 Lely Resort 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 Lely Resort 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 Lely Resort. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
