“Kiara was by far the best dog/house sitter we have ever had stay in our home & take care of our fur baby. She was very attentive to our dog & communicated with us on a regular basis. She was extremely respectful of our home. Highly recommend!”
“Savannah was an amazing pet and house sitter. She went above and beyond to not only take care of our furr babies, but take care of our house too! She is very accommodating, communicative and great with our animals. Thank you once again for taking care of our zoo!”
“Taylor did an amazing job as always with our boys, especially assisting with some medical needs one of our dogs required while traveling. Will definitely use again in the future!”
“We were so happy to have found Taylor. She was responsive and patient with all of our requests and sent photos/updates of our dog while we were away. It was such a weight off of our shoulders to know our dog was taken care of and also loved on. She’s an anxious pup and really just wants comfort and company. We would absolutely book Taylor to care for her again.”
“Kiara did an amazing job taking care of Pippin. I came back to a happy, well cared for dog. Kiara was careful to follow instructions left for Pippin's care. She stayed in touch while I was gone and left the house in good condition. I had to change plans just before the trip and Kiara was flexible and accommodating. I would be happy to have Kiara care for Pippin again.”
“Alexis is amazing. She goes above and beyond. When one of my dogs had an accident she took our carpet to her own place to clean it. We’ve tried several pet sitters but no one leaves our kitties as happy and our place as clean as when Alexis comes to watch them. We will be using Alexis again and again!”
“Elizabeth stayed with our girls, Nelly & Stella, at our home over Labor Day weekend. It was a somewhat last minute booking which she accommodated after a meet & greet at our home. She provided photos of our girls throughout her stay which helped us feel connected to our girls while we're traveling. We are very pleased with the experience!”
“Gloria was so amazing! We left her with our new puppy (about 10 weeks old), she communicated the whole time and responded in a prompt manner. She also left our house clean and tidy! We would definitely recommend her and will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve watched dogs my whole life and have two of my own. I also am available to watch cats as well. I’m friendly and love hanging out with pups or cats I can house sit or have you’re over for the night I’m currently working for a school district so I work 8-3:30 but I can go before or after work and stay over night or they can come stay with me Always love and Saftey that’s the biggest thing anyone wants for their fur babies. I am loving and caring and your pets will be safe.
About: I was raised with dogs & cats my entire life, and even helped train a few. I have experience in raising puppies and younger pets, but wouldn't prefer to take care of any too little. Even though I don't currently own any, I have a lot of experience from previous pets and taking care of other people's dogs through a side-gigs and friends! I would love to meet your animals and take care of them. Their happiness and well-being means the most. I currently attend college part-time and work full-time, but I work with total flexibility, so I have tons of free time. I'm free any weekday minus Monday and Tuesday (varies week by week), and free almost every weekend. I have a ton of time to care for your pets! :) Regardless of where I'll be taking care of your pet(s), I can ensure that nothing will stay messy! Whether the pet needs to take any medication, needs any variations in feeding times, needs to be let out/walked at a certain time, etc, I can certainly guarantee that nothing will be left behind. You can always feel free to leave specific instructions regarding the house or place at any given time!
“Kiara was great with my 2 dogs. She did everything as requested and more. She even left my house tidier than I did! Thank you! It was a comfort to have someone stay over. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Giovanna and her husband were amazing! They took wonderful care of our pups. We received lots of update pics and they were very quick to respond to all messages we sent. Lovely people and great care givers.”
About: My many years of owning pets and working at a veterinarian facility has given me many different experiences with pets. My love for pets would be shown in the love and care I would provide for each any every pet I take care of. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 guinea pig, and 1 bearded dragon, with each one getting equal love and care. I would provide your pet with the same love and care that I give my own pets. If you choose me as your sitter or walker, know that I have the years of experience and understanding of different pets and know that each pet has its own personality. I look forward to getting to know each of your pets. I am currently doing online classes right now to better my self. I have more time then I use to, to help others that may not have as much time as they would like to help with their pets. I am unable to watch any pets at my personal home because of one of my dogs doesn’t like other pets. But I would take care of someone else’s home like it was my own with my own animals. If a fence is available we would play outside. If not we would walk around the neighborhood.
“Danielle was great with the pups. They really seemed to enjoy her company and reacted well to her, especially our more nervous dog. She has great dog energy. She is top-notch and we will use her if she is available for our next trip.”
“I had to attend some intensive work training with really unpredictable and super weird hours, and Kelly was an absolute lifesaver. Her flexibility was incredible—she worked around my crazy schedule without hesitation and always made it work seamlessly. She was extremely punctual and fully accountable, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Throughout the stay, she proactively sent me adorable pictures of my dogs and quickly responded to every message, reassuring me that they were happy, safe, and receiving the best possible care. Knowing she was checking in on both me and my pups meant the world during a stressful time. If you're looking for a trustworthy, caring, and highly responsive pet sitter, look no further. I will definitely be booking her again and recommending her to everyone I know. Thank you so much for everything—you're a true professional and a dog lover! ❤️”

Kiara did a wonderful job caring for Harley and Gia during our 8-day trip! She was kind and caring with both of them, and we really appreciated her help while we were away. We’re grateful she took the time to care for our girls, and we would happily recommend her to other pet parents. Thank you, Kiara! 😊
Molly is an absolutely incredible dog sitter! She watched our two dogs and excelled at communication from start to finish. We received daily photo updates, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. She was also incredibly transparent about her schedule, letting us know exactly when she would be coming and going, and ensuring our dogs’ routines weren't disrupted at all. Molly truly goes above and beyond—she even brought a carpet from her own home to place by the door so our three-legged dog could have better traction and an easier time going outside. It is rare to find someone so reliable, deeply thoughtful, and caring. We will absolutely be hiring Molly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pups!
Taylor was amazing with Cooper! She took care of him like he was her own, sent us tons of pictures and updates, and made it so easy to feel comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We came home to a happy pup and a tidy house. We’ll definitely be booking with Taylor again!
We highly recommend Leslie as a dog sitter. She dog sat for our 15 year old dog for ten days. He takes several medications daily and he also wears a diaper. Leslie was able to handle this with ease. Our dog took to Leslie quicly. She stayed in our house for the entire ten days. Leslie is a responsible and reliable dog sitter. We would most definitely use her again. 5 Stars!!
Emily was a fantastic sitter for our pups and kitty! She responded quickly, kept us updated during her stay and sent us photos! I could tell my pups were happy, well-loved, and in great hands. I’d absolutely trust Emily again for future pet sitting and I highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Minneola is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 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.
As of October 2026, there are 2,920 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Minneola. 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 Minneola 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 Minneola 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 Minneola 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
