About: I have taken care of my neighbors’ and family friends dogs since 2015 ranging from English bulldog to Chihuahua to full size labradoodles. I have also cared for my own dogs. I am currently working part-time Monday-Thursday and am available after 3pm. I am fully available on Fridays. I work 1 weekend day which does fluctuate between Saturday and Sunday depending on the week - on that work day, I am available before 9:30am and after 6:30pm. I am very respectful of the client’s home. I will obey their house rules. I will make sure to be thorough with any provided instructions and ask questions about things I am not sure about. I keep a clean and organized space.
“This is the 2nd time I have used Kristen and I’m so happy that I found here. My pups are my babies and I hate leaving them but she made me feel okay about leaving them. She sent me check in photos daily and made sure to follow our schedule. Thank you Kristen ❤️”
“100% the best! Took care of our two golden’s Sunny and Candy, and we will definitely book with them again. We received consistent updates and pictures. She was supportive in giving medication to Sunny who got a hot spot just a few days before our trip and we were so happy he was in good hands.”
“Amyra has watched my dog Kira twice now and was flawless both times. This most recent trip was a longer one and out of the country, but I felt very comfortable throughout that my dog was being cared for. I returned to a clean place and a happy dog. Can’t ask for more when putting your furry family member in the hands of a stranger. Book with confidence.”
“Rebecca is the BEST! We went on a trip overseas for a week and not a single time were we worried about our dog. She kept us updated everyday and showed him love like he was her own. Could not recommend more! I will never book with anyone else but her! 1000/10!🫶🏼”
About: I’m a lifelong dog owner and current Goldendoodle parent with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also walked and cared for dogs for families in my neighborhood growing up, giving me experience with different breeds and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love being around dogs. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, feeding, medication administration, and regular potty breaks as needed. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, and I can easily adjust to their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work from home, so they’ll have consistent supervision, attention, and care. My home is clean and dog-friendly, and I have a gentle, well-socialized Goldendoodle. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including walks, feeding, and medication if needed. I also provide updates so you can feel confident your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Fabienne is an excellent dog sitter. She took such great care of my dog and my home while I was on a 3 night trip. She provided multiple updates each day, including photos. I came home to such a happy dog and the house was exactly how I left it. I highly recommend her to others!”
“Katrina was wonderful! She stayed at our home with our pets for the weekend. Excellent communication and sent lots of cute pictures too! I recommend her and will also be using her in the future.”
“Kyanna did an amazing job watching our dog and house sitting. Kyanna kept us updated and informed by sending pictures and texting updates. Our home was well cared for and in order when we returned.”
“Kelsey was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my husky and my Bengal cat while I was out of town, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and making sure I knew how they were doing. It was clear she genuinely cared about my pets and treated them like her own. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for animals. I would absolutely book with Kelsey again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve been a veterinary assistant going on 8 years now. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, administering medications, including injections and I don’t mind exotics. I am currently working so i will be able to work around schedules and my classes are online for now so I can definitely plan my classes around your pets’ schedule. In general, I believe all living beings deserve to be treated with love and respect. Therefore, I will make sure their bowls are clean, they have clean water, access to comfort and safety checks before I leave.
“Can’t say enough good things about Sarah! Loved her interaction with my fur babies, loved her desire to learn about my dogs and ask questions, love the pictures and communication….. and absolutely love her professionalism . I believe Sarah will succeed at anything she chooses to do because of her great work ethic. Will definitely use her again!”
“Sabha was a total professional. The communication was strong from the start. Communicated expectations garnered responsiveness and results. He house sat for us for four days. When we had to extend due to a change in plans, he accommodated. When we returned home, the kitchen had been cleaned and the house had been vacuumed. It was cleaner than when we left. Will absolutely book again. Thanks Sabaha!”
“Emily did an excellent job caring for Bambino. She kept us informed throughout the day with updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. She was attentive, professional, and clearly cared about his well-being. We especially appreciated the detailed progress report she provided at the end of the visit. We would gladly trust her with Bambino again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Excellent job! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Alicia did an awesome job - she sent several wonderful pictures (she's a great photographer!) throughout the stay to let us know how our girl was doing. Great with communication. I was very pleased with her as a sitter and will be using her again!”
About: I've had pets in my home for most of my 65 years. Now retired, I miss having pets in my life and brightening up my days. I am currently retired and my schedule is wide open. 4 kids and 7 grandkids are now all located out of state. No more babysitting duties. Make sure the pets are fed, walked and have an opportunity to relieve themselves. Currently i don't have pets in my home but have a fenced secure area.
“Kaylee was wonderful with our senior dog Scoobie! She gave him lots of love and cuddles and kept us up to date with pictures and texts. She is very experienced in the field and was great with his medication. Our home was immaculate when we got back with all towels and sheets washed and put away. We felt very comfortable knowing she was here while we were away!”
“Robert is so very amenable. He was so helpful in a pinch and went ABOVE AND BEYOND. He is a great fit. My pup and cat loved him. He was right on schedule with all their needs and got them up and moving and staying healthy!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Orange Park Acres
Paige took great care of our 2 boxers in our home. They are older but still playful, not great with other dogs, especially on the leash. They had no issues and were kept safe and happy. She took great care of the house and gave us updates and photos. Thanks for making our trip so much easier.
Vy is the best! She is extremely thoughtful, thorough, and I can tell she really cares about my pet, she is my go to for any of my dog sitting needs. From meeting her to the end of her stay at my house, she kept me updated with photos and how my dog was doing. This was my first time hiring a sitter instead of boarding and I’m super thankful it was with Vy!
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!
Riley was amazing with Luna, he made sure she was comfortable. He also took her on multiple walks, fed her on time and shared a lot of photos / videos. Riley is amazing, caring and knows/ understands dogs. you should book him and we definitely will work with him in the future!
We had a wonderful experience! She was gentle, sweet, and incredibly accommodating. My little poochies felt calm, comfortable, and well cared for in her presence. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were with someone so kind and attentive. I would gladly trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to others!" 🐾💕
Allessandra was awesome! She came in clutch for me last minute and was amazing with the house and dogs. She sent pictures, updates, and was super communicative. She followed directions perfectly and left the house clean, which is the best to come home to. Would definitely rebook again!
Lileah was very attentive, kind, and caring to my dog Sage. She went above and beyond to understand mine and my dogs needs and had great communication throughout the day. Very trustworthy and looking forward to book her again and regularly! Thank you so much Lileah! I’d highly recommend!
Kyra was so loving and reliable with our pups (who can be kind of high maintenance) and she made us feel completely comfortable. She asked great questions, sent wonderful updates, and shared the cutest photos each day!! She also left our home immaculate and went above and beyond to make sure one of our dogs got enough to eat when he was refusing his food. She’s a saint. Can’t wait to book her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Orange Park Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Orange Park Acres on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,909 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Orange Park Acres. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
