“We could not be happier with our dog sitter! She has such a calm, caring energy, and our little 11-month-old pup absolutely adores her. From the moment they met, we could tell he felt comfortable and safe with her. She goes above and beyond by making sure he is well-fed, gets plenty of playtime, multiple walks each day, and lots of love and attention. It's clear she genuinely enjoys caring for dogs and treats them like her own. As pet parents, it gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing our puppy is in such great hands while we're away. We have been so impressed that we've already booked her for two more upcoming trips. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter! 🐾❤️”

About: I grew up taking care of a pitbull and have loved dogs ever since. She was the most well-behaved, kind dog and inspired me to foster pitbulls in college. I was always the person that dogs and cats were drawn to, dubbed the "animal whisperer" by my friends. Now, I petsit all kinds of animals and love spending time playing or taking them on walks. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. Caring for dogs fits into my daily routine, and I will love your pet like my own. I currently work part time remotely on a schedule I can choose (with the exception of Tuesdays). So, I'm able to structure my day around animal care: going on walks, potty breaks, and playtime. I go above and beyond to provide great care because I truly love dogs! I have a fenced front yard with plenty of grass and area to play, including a bunch of dog toys. I also have a fenced backyard with a pool, a grassy area, and a dog door, though I will block the dog door if your animal is not comfortable around a pool. I offer pretty much every service, including overnights at my home. They will be welcome to roam the house and sit on furniture, unless you specifically request not. I completely understand if that is not a habit you want your dog to have and will adjust to your instructions!

“Stephanie was great! She stayed at our house with the dogs for a few days and was really attentive and caring. She sent photos while we were away, and it was clear the dogs really liked her. She also took great care of our home, and everything was spotless when we got back. Would definitely have her stay with them again!”

“Joey has been incredible for us and our dog, Bullseye. She just stayed at our home with Bullseye while we were out of the country for two weeks. We felt very comfortable with her, and could tell Bullseye was happy and well taken care of, too. She is very responsive and sent daily photos while we were gone. I highly recommend using Joey for any pet needs! She also has amazing flexibility, and is happy to stop in for walks as needed.”

“Angelina was absolutely wonderful with my little dog, Peach. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in caring and trustworthy hands. She was kind, attentive, patient, and treated him with genuine love and affection. It’s not easy to leave your pet with someone else, but Angelina made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Angelina, for taking such great care of my little boy! ❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love dogs (maybe more than humans 😅) and how much joy they bring to my life. I find joy in giving them quality and nurturing care, making sure they have everything they need and feel loved and taken care of. I enjoy giving them walks, playing catch with them, feeding them, giving them cuddles, and taking care of them the best I know how. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages. Young dogs, middle aged dogs, and I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs. I’d love to help you by taking care of your dog as if they were my own. I work for myself from home so have a very flexible schedule to give your dog all the love and attention he or she deserves. I’m here to give them plenty of play time, walks, and everything they need. Your dog will have the entire house to make him or herself comfortable and at home. I will make sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable. I have a spacious fenced in backyard that they can get plenty of outdoor time in, and love blankets and soft beds that they can nap in and relax in. If you would like, they are also more than welcome to sleep in the bed with me, if that makes them feel more safe and loved.

About: I've been a dog owner my entire life. I love all animals and I am so happy to play and love your pet like it's my own! I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I can remember, my German shepherd mix as a child, 2 labradors and I had a wonderful sweet Shiba Inu named lady who passed a couple years ago from chronic kidney failure. So I have a range of caring for all ages of dogs. I have 10 years of experience with training and obedience. I'll make sure they get out their pent up energy and you will come home to a happy pup! I will pay close attention to your pet and make sure they are safe at all times. If they have special needs I am more than happy to take care of that as well. I'm enthusiastic and care very much for all animals. Thank you for the opportunity to take care of a part of your family! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the week. I’m especially available during weekday mornings and afternoons, and I can often accommodate evenings with advance notice. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks fit naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to work with pet parents who need dependable, recurring care. I always treat every pet like they’re my own and make their safety, comfort, and routine my priority. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule, feeding instructions, medications, crate routine, and any house rules you have. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Both of my pets warmed up to her immediately and she let me know how they were doing with daily texts and pictures. My house was clean when I got back home and my pets were happy. She even left me a sweet note and a vase of fresh flowers to welcome me home! I definitely recommend Lindsey and plan to reserve with her next time I need a house and pet sitter.”

About: I have never met a dog I didn’t love - and I’m excited to prove the same here. I’ve walked family and neighborhood dogs in both New York and Seoul, and I also volunteer as a puppy foster with Irvine Animal Care Center. That experience has made me patient, attentive, and comfortable with dogs of all personalities and needs. I treat every dog like my own—and I’m pretty sure I’ll fall in love with yours too. I work full time (9-5, M-F) After 5pm & weekend would be best. If in the Irvine area - can fit drop-ins mid day I live in an apartment complex with a nice dog park & garden for them to play and stroll in! my apartment does not have crates - so they will need to be provided if necessary.

About: Ever since I can remember, I've always loved animals. I grew up around them and always felt comfortable with them. I started caring for dogs when I was a little girl and my cousins left me dog or puppy sitting. I've always been told that I’m responsible, caring, and a protective person and I believe that every dog should feel loved and safe, that is a main thing for me. Let me know if I can help take care of your beloved pet!! Thank you (: I’m a new grad and I need a side hustle on the weekends to help with student debt. I absolutely adore pets and I treat all like my own family! I have a fenced yard, one other dog that’s a year old named Finley and he is incredibly playful and loves other friends. I am open to pet Sitting in your home or going for walks and even the occasional groom!

Parker was exactly what we were looking for in a sitter for our four big dogs! He was communicative, patient as our dogs warmed up to someone new, and genuinely kind. He took great care of our pups while we were away, which gave us such peace of mind. We’re so grateful for him and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!

We are so glad that we booked Gabby to watch our dog and cat! We arranged a meet up before the scheduled days so our pets could be familiar with her and they immediately trusted her. Our Cat who usually strays from strangers felt comfortable coming out and meeting her! During her stay Gabby sent picture and video updates of our pets regularly. We would definitely recommend her to anyone who is considering a sitter!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Last-Minute Lifesaver—Incredible Flexibility and Care! I cannot thank Abigail enough for completely saving the day! Due to a scheduling mistake on my part, I found myself in a desperate situation, needing a house and pet sitter to cover a one-day gap before we returned home. Abigail stepped up at the absolute last minute with zero hesitation. Not only was she willing to take on a short-notice, single-day job, but she also went out of her way to coordinate directly with our outgoing sitter. She arrived early to do a face-to-face handoff, quickly got up to speed on our pets' routines, and took over seamlessly. Her flexibility, responsiveness, and absolute professionalism completely put my mind at ease during a very stressful moment. Our pets were beautifully cared for, and we returned to a safe home and very happy animals. To find someone this trustworthy and accommodating on such short notice is rare, and we are incredibly grateful for her help!

5 Paws!!!!! (stars;) If we could give more than five stars, we absolutely would! From the moment we left, we knew our three dogs and our home were in the very best hands. They sent frequent updates and adorable pictures that made us smile and gave us complete peace of mind. They were always quick to respond, incredibly thoughtful, and treated our dogs like they were their own. It was obvious how much love, attention, and care they gave them. When we came home, our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. That says everything. Finding people you trust enough to stay in your home and care for your pets is priceless, and we feel so lucky to have found them. We truly hope they'll be available every time for us because we wouldn't hesitate for a second to invite them back. We recommend them with complete confidence to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely wonderful pet sitters. Thank you for taking such incredible care of our home and our furry family!

FAQs for House Sitting - Orange Park Acres

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Orange Park Acres is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $80 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 7,750 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Orange Park Acres. 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 Orange Park Acres 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 Orange Park Acres 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 Orange Park Acres 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.
