“Linda is patient and kind. Our fur babies love when she visits with them. She brings them treats and toys and showers them with love and gifts. I never have to worry about them when I travel. Thank you Linda!!”
“Daphne was absolutely wonderful with my dogs. She was attentive, communicative, and kept me in the loop the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also handled last-minute emergencies with so much care and calmness. I’m so grateful for her and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Kelli and Torrie were amazing pet sitters in my home! Beyond their sweet and adorable personalities, they took outstanding care of our fur babies! They were responsive and so easy to communicate with during the whole booking process. Max and Sophie looked so happy in all of the pictures they sent us every day, I thought they wouldn’t want us to come back home! We will definitely call them again!”
About: I took a break from Rover for a few years after having my 2nd child and pursuing graduate school…now I’m back and ready to continue sharing my love with your pets! I’ve always grown up surrounded by pets, with a family that has a strong love for animals (and a bias toward loving Rottweilers). My family, friends, and neighbors have always relied on me for their pet-sitting needs. I have walked, cuddled, bathed, medicated, and trained dogs of all ages and sizes for the better half of my life, and I would be honored to do the same for your pup. Is it your first time booking? Let me know so I can give you a promo code for $20 off your first service! I am a full time therapist, mom of two, and animal lover. I am only unavailable on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday due to a heavy work schedule on those days. My beloved Rottweiler passed away in March after a long and happy life rolling in the grass, splashing in his doggy pool, running circles in our fenced yard, playing with his human brothers, and going on car rides. Whatever works best for your dog and makes them happiest, is what works best for me. I am familiar with crate training, positive reinforcements, and delay of gratification strategies and I’m ready and willing to implement whatever routine necessary to accommodate your pup.
“This is the second time I've had Daniella. Milo was so excited to see her, he kept running around in a circle because he couldn't contain himself. He jumped right in her lap; he definitely remembered her. When I left, he hardly noticed at all! She just called him to her and he snuggled right in. She followed my directions and my schedule for him. But the best part was the cuddling. That is why I wanted her back. She is firm with him about the things we've talked about, but she makes sure he gets the loving I want when I'm not there.”
“Madison has been a pleasure to work with! Our two pups love her as much as she loves them. She treats them like her own and utilizes the tools we have in place so they can continue their training even when I'm not here. She goes above and beyond to help keep Bo and Tater comfortable while I'm out of town, this helps to ease my mind so I can enjoy my trips instead of worrying the whole time.”
“As always, Makenna was just wonderful with Harry. His anxiety at having us gone is practically non-existent when she stays with him. So grateful to have her to care for Harry when we can’t be there.”
“Isabella did a great job taking care of my two dogs and my home while we were on vacation for a week. My dogs were happy when we got home. Isabella made sure the house looked great too! I would recommend her without hesitation!”

“Julleyka always does great with our dogs! This last trip we were gone for two weeks and she sent me regular updates and asked questions when needed. She went above and beyond on a few matters and I appreciate her so much! Our pups love her too which is the most important thing :)”
“Super friendly person and quick with her responses. I definitely feel like my cat is safe with her & I’m comfortable with her in my home while I’m gone. I’ll definitely be booking again :) !!!”

“Kristie is the BEST! She watched our pup Lolo for us for our whole wedding day and we didn’t have to worry about him at all, just enjoyed our day to the max. Cannot say enough how Kristie went the extra mile for us and made our day so much more amazing for being so kind, accommodating and lovely. Thanks so much Kristie!!”
“April was great! Came at a very crucial time we needed her and our pups took to her right away. She was kind and thorough when it came to what their schedules were like. I appreciated the photos and video she sent over. Would definitely book with her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Port Richey East
Tori is an amazing pet sitter! She cared for my two large, energetic dogs for 4 days in my home. She kept me informed with photos and notes so I could relax, knowing my dogs were happy and safe. Tori reached out to clarify instructions to ensure the dogs' safety. The dogs absolutely love her! She is The Best!!
Excellent sitter. Daniella and her daughter took very good care of Abby. Abby is an older dog with arthritis in her hip. My house was spotless when I returned home and Abby was so happy to see me. I would recommend Daniella in a heartbeat. She is kind, gentle and follows all instructions perfectly.
Daphne was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and responsive throughout the entire time. She was kind, organized, and very responsible, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my girls were in her care. She took great care of them and treated them with so much love and attention. I truly appreciated all the updates and her excellent communication. I highly recommend Daphne and would definitely trust her with my dogs again!
Holly is absolutely perfection at the highest level of caring for our Benny. Holly has taken care of Benny several times before and always goes above and beyond in her care concerning 14 year old cat, Benny. Family members could have help while I was away but I only wanted Holly. I was away for 3 week for personal reasons. Holly sent pictures everyday and texted letting me know how he was doing. Benny's older age, he is very set in his ways of his " routine " and Holly certainly recognized that and kept him happy. 3 weeks was a long time commitment that Holly didn't miss a day, she even brought my mail in, sorted it and kept the house in perfect order. Holly is absolutely amazing ! She will always be our # 1.
Mariah was amazing, and my dog was great with her, too. When I left and returned, the house was spotless, as if no one had been there. She washed the sheets and towels she used and put them back on the bed. I can't say enough about her. The communication was great. I will use her every time I go away!
Wonderful experience. We have a classic shepherd who only really loves her parents (we tried so much socializing, but genes are genes). Christina handled the timid 70 lbs baby with such grace that within a few hours, they were best friends! You can tell she loves what she does and have experience. Even our more aloof cat was cuddling with her by the middle of her stay. If you have pets that dont get watched often, she's definitely your girl!

FAQs for House Sitting - New Port Richey East
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Port Richey East on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,523 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New Port Richey East. 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 New Port Richey East 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 New Port Richey East 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 New Port Richey East 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.
