“Kenya was timely, communicative, and made me feel comfortable throughout my entire time away that my animals were cared for and happy. She sent pictures morning and night and reassured me that everything I asked of her was done!”
“Mariia was great! She communicated well, spent a lot of time with our cats, and left my house spotless. I came home to calm, happy cats and we will be using Mariia again :)”
“I cannot recommend Logan highly enough. From our very first interaction, he was professional, communicative, and genuinely invested in making sure my dog felt comfortable and cared for. What impressed me most was the level of attention and care he provided. He was consistently reliable, arrived when expected, sent thoughtful updates, and clearly took the time to get to know my dog’s personality, needs, and routines. It gave me tremendous peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. My dog absolutely adores him, which says more than I ever could. It’s obvious that he genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were his own. Every walk left my dog happy, exercised, and excited for the next visit. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, dependable, kind, and truly exceptional with dogs, look no further. Finding someone you can confidently trust with your pet is rare, and Logan has earned my highest recommendation. I would not hesitate to book with him again and will continue to do so whenever I need help caring for my dog.”
“I booked JaRavia at the last minute, and she was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet. During the boarding, she was patient and understanding with my shy dog, Bear, who can be a bit distant. She checked in frequently, and by the end of the visit, Bear had started to trust her. I highly recommend JaRavia for her kindness and love of animals!”
“Makenna dog sat for us for 4 nights and was great! She sent pictures daily and kept me in the loop. Dogs seemed happy as ever! She also was a great guest - stripped the bed before leaving and kept the house tidy. Will be rebooking. Thanks again!!!”
“We always receive exceptional service from Hailey! Daily photos and updates - it makes traveling so much better knowing that someone is caring for our babies.”
“Marie took such good care of Genevieve while I was out of town! She stayed overnight with her, brushed her, and made sure she was well fed and played with. I was very grateful to not have to worry about Genevieve while I was away, knowing Marie was with her and keeping her company. I returned home to a very clean apartment and a happy cat. Communication was always easy and Marie sent pictures the entire time. Thank you for everything, Marie! It was so great to meet you!”
About: Hands on experience caring for animals I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with a wide variety of animals from large to small. I am retired and I do Uber on the side. I have very flexible hours and I’m available from dog walking, spending time with your animals to staying with them in your home to house sitting. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal is different, and I will take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs that they may have. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, quiet, companionship, medication or extra patience, I provide loving a attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pets is to feel completely comfortable, knowing they’re in experienced, caring and trustworthy hands.
“Dwight is very reliable and the communication and updates while we are away are perfect! We have used him several times over the past two years for this reason!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Cane Corsos, and many others. My love for animals goes far beyond simply caring for them—they truly become family. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. If you choose me as your pet sitter, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, compassion, and plenty of love every step of the way Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I currently work part-time, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me plenty of time each day to provide attentive care before and after work. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’m available to give them the love and attention they deserve. On the weekends, I’m completely off, giving me even more flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and spend quality time with them. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. In my client’s home, I strive to keep your pet on their normal schedule by providing fresh food and water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed and with instructions), and plenty of affection. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while I’m there. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs.

It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was being taken care of and loved! He stayed in our home and took excellent care of Branch and the house was immaculate when we arrived home! Thank you Michael for such great care of our dog Branch! We will be happy to have him watch and care for him in the future!”

About: I've loved animals since childhood and I have a collection of my own! Including the basics, 3 cats, and.... geckos, snakes, and quails of cource all our non-venmous and completely hsrmless little ones! No matter what your pet is I would love to care for them and give them the best care possible! If boarding: you pet will be housed in a separate room from my 3 cats to make sure everyone is as comfortable as possible! I will spend as much time as needed with your furry, feathered or scaly pet as needed! No matter my schedule I always block off time to give your baby as much time as they require! I have a separate sectioned off area of my apartment where you pet will get all the enrichment they need without being disturbed by any of my babies.
“Brooke is very responsible and communicates well. She was great with our three senior dogs and was easily able to handle their meds and did everything we asked. I would not hesitate to use Brooke for all our dog sitting and walking needs.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my own animals since I was five years old, I’ve also worked with animal shelters as a volunteer and as a dog groomer.

Cynthia was great! She asked all the right questions and had asked about items we had on our pets’ profiles before she came (she actually read them)!! She sent fun status updates throughout the days, the pets bonded with her, and she even brought in some packages for me even though I hadn’t asked yet. Will definitely book with her in the future, thank you Cynthia!
Christina was a huge hit with both of my pups from their first meeting. Having her housesit for us for a long weekend was fabulous- she was very communicative, sending lots of pictures, and made sure the pups were comfortable. We’ll definitely work with her again!
Can’t express enough how well Hailey takes care of my pup! I have a very high maintenance German Shepherd that doesn’t warm up to people quickly, but Hailey has been able to befriend and gain his trust. The communication is excellent and she is very attentive during her time with him. 5 stars all the way!
She was fabulous and very responsive to our requests. We received wonderful photos and amazing care of our cat and dog while we were gone. Came back to a clean house and happy animals and loved the incredibly thorough details that we received while gone. Thank you for being so easy to work with! It’s always a relief knowing your babies are in good hands.
Marie is amazing, a complete Godsend. I have an extremely hard time leaving my dogs but she made it so easy for me to take my family away on vacation. I got constant updates and the dogs adored her. I’m looking forward to more family vacations knowing Marie is in our lives now 🙏. We appreciate her so much.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Orlando 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 3,245 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Orlando. 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 Orlando 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 Orlando 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 Orlando 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 Orlando. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
