“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!”
“Hailey took the best care of my senior dog. She watched Fiona for the weekend in my home. I was so nervous leaving her but she sent so many photos with little updates about what they were up to and how everything was going. Everything in the house was perfect when we got home and Fiona was so happy. Hailey is a true animal lover, compassionate, detail oriented and a great communicator. Your sweet little furry family member is in great hands with Hailey.”
“Colleen did an amazing job caring for our 2 cats and house for almost 2 weeks! Also, she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. We came home to happy cats and a spotless house. We will definitely be booking with Colleen again!”
“Dwight is extremely accommodating and friendly. He goes above and beyond to take care of our dog, Keaton. We know Keaton will be in amazing hands when Dwight is taking care of him. We hope to have Dwight care for Keaton for more vacations and long days of ours in the future!”
“My first experience with Rover is with Cristina, Cristina is fabulous with our puppy, Dash. Cristina played with Dash, brought him to the dog park and took him on various walks. Cristina is very pleasant, happy, and passes on her confident personality which makes a first-time Rover-user like me, feel confident when leaving their puppy with the caretaker for the day!! And Dash could sense immediately the pleasant character of Cristina, so he showed readiness in leaving his Mama, which came as a surprise to me!! When we come back to Central Florida, we will give you a shout! Thank you Cristina!”
About: Hi, I'm Mariia! I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. House sitting includes full daily care, feeding, walks, and plenty of attention. Drop-in visits cover feeding, litter, playtime, and a photo update so you know everything is well. I've cared for pets my whole life. I grew up with cats and a Whippet, raised kittens from 3 months old, and have ongoing experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, including a reactive dog, a Sphynx cat with special grooming needs, a senior dog, and multi-pet households. I'm comfortable with medication administration and ear cleaning. I work from home and have flexible availability throughout the day, including evenings, weekends, overnight stays, and holidays. I'm independent with no conflicting obligations, so I can accommodate last-minute requests and extended stays. I follow your routines and house rules to the letter, keep your home exactly as I found it, and send regular photo updates so you can actually relax. Every pet gets individual attention, because to me, that's the whole point. I work from home and have genuine flexibility throughout the day: mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I'm fully available for overnight stays, multi-day house sitting, and holiday care. I'm independent with no conflicting obligations, so last-minute requests are welcome. Please note that I'm currently not able to host pets in my home, but I'm fully available to come to yours. The pet comes first, always. I follow your routines and house rules exactly, keep your home the way I found it, and am mindful of neighbors and shared spaces. I'm clean and tidy by nature (my friends would say suspiciously so). On walks I stay attentive to the dog's behavior and surroundings at all timesю I'm experienced with reactive dogs and know how to navigate shared spaces calmly. You'll get regular photo updates so you can actually relax while you're away.
“Marie was wonderful and already feels like a part of our family after staying with our two Goldendoodles all weekend. She spent quality time with them and took amazing care of them. We are very thankful we found Marie and will absolutely have her back again!”
“Gabrielle was wonderful! Our Dog Liberty had so much fun with her, she even got her to walk on her leash and walks without pulling, which we can never do, so not only did she do a great job walking and taking care of her, she was teaching/training her as well! We got tons of pics and videos and updates and she left our house nice and clean when she was done! We will definitely be using her again and trust her anytime with our pup!”
“Elba is the absolute best pet sitter!!!! We went away for vacation and needed around the clock care. Elba was very thorough with the instructions and information we gave her. She took care of our animals as if they were her own. She gave updates every single day and sent the best pictures. Our animals were so happy and loved while we were away. And Elba even went above and beyond when we had a tree branch from a neighboring yard fall during a storm and damage our fence. She kept me notified and sent pictures. I would absolutely recommend Elba for anyone who is looking for a trustworthy person to care for your pets! We will most definitely be using Elba in the future to take care of our fur babies!!!!!!!”
“Kiri is the absolute best dog/house sitter we have ever had! I loved her, my pups loved her, and she was in constant communication with me the entire time we were gone. The absolute best!!!”
“Devona did a great job watching our 2 dogs. She sent us pictures throughout the day to keep us updated. She also came prior to meet the dogs in advance. We would definitely use her again.”
“Noelle was fantastic with our babies! We will definitely reach out to her again for our next weekend getaway! She was attentive to their needs, patient with our pug's disability, cognizant of their comfort throughout the weekend, and kept them on their schedule/routine. She checked in often and kept us informed of their activities, leaving us to a stress-free, mostly unplugged weekend. We are very happy to have found Noelle!”
“Robbie was excellent! This was the second time he watched after our pups and he was communicative, thoughtful, and sent us an abundance of pictures/videos (which we loved!). Highly recommend Robbie to anyone needing a fantastic animal watcher!”
“Michael took such great care of our home and pets! He was in regular contact including pictures of the dogs for our kids. Will definitely book again for future trips!”
“Let me start off by saying that I highly recommend Heather for any of your pet related needs! We had a trip planned prior to knowing we'd have a little pup in our lives. Given that he was only 11 weeks old I was undecided as to whether to cancel the trip or find a sitter to stay in my condo with him while we were gone for the weekend. We found Heather on Rover and after an day of exchanging messages I felt comfortable enough to book and meet Heather the day prior to our departure. She took care of Linkin as if he was her own. She was 100% responsive to all of my texts and sent lots and lots of pictures of my little man having fun in the condo, while he was out for walks and even when he was exhausted from playing and fell asleep. If it's a friendly, reliable pet sitter you're looking for...look no further, Heather is great and I've personally found my go to sitter for Linkin from here out.”
About: Hi! My name is Jack :) I have spent the past several years working as a veterinary technician, caring for animals in a professional medical setting. I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with medical needs. I love building trust with animals and helping them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own pets, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 I strive to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs morning, afternoon, evening, or overnight care, I will work with you to ensure their feeding, exercise, medication, and enrichment schedules are maintained. Consistency is important for both cats and dogs, and my goal is to keep their day-to-day routine familiar and stress-free while you’re away. I am happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs and create a care plan that works best for them. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. As a veterinary technician with several years of experience, I am trained to recognize signs of illness, injury, or distress and respond appropriately. I provide a calm, patient, and low-stress environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires medication, I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by an experienced animal care professional.
“I am thankful and grateful to Katarina. She stayed overnight with my three dogs for the weekend. She was reliable communicated well and sent pictures throught her stay. My dogs can be a handful but were relaxed and comfortable with her. Would recommend her and look forward to using her again.”
“Wonderful house sitter & took terrific care of our cat Oscar. Deborah leapt in to help us on short notice when another Rover sitter bailed the night before she was due to start. My wife and I highly recommend Deborah and would be happy to use her again.”
“We absolutely loved Izabella!! She took amazing care of our two big rescue dogs and went above and beyond with taking care of our house! We couldn't recommend her more and can't wait to leave town again knowing that our dogs will be well looked after!”
“Makenna was amazing! Very communicative and sent lots of sweet photos during the stay. We could tell our pup loved her. Don’t hesitate to book with Makenna!”

Dwight was outstanding! Our dogs were well taken care of and completely happy and worn out (in a good way)! He truly cares for dogs. Dwight’s communication was excellent and we ad zero concerns the entire weekend. Our house was also well maintained. We would absolutely recommend Dwight to anyone!
Marie is absolutely wonderful and we will continue to have her back for overnight pet sitting. She is a dog whisperer to our three pups, and even broke a long-standing bad behavior with our 11-year-old lab. Her daily updates are hysterically funny and we are always able to fully enjoy our vacation when she’s taking care of our most precious pups back home. Thank you, Marie!
Logan was GREAT! He provided good communication with frequent updates and was super friendly. Most importantly, Scrappy loved him! Scrappy appreciates the company of people and Logan truly gave him that. Thank you for the service and keeping Scrappy good company.
I am thankful and grateful to Katarina. She stayed overnight with my three dogs for the weekend. She was reliable communicated well and sent pictures throught her stay. My dogs can be a handful but were relaxed and comfortable with her. Would recommend her and look forward to using her again.
Robin was great! She arrived on time and took care of our precious pets! She kept us informed and took pictures of the pets, we could see they were enjoying themselves. This was our first time having a pet sitter to our home and Robin made us feel very comfortable and did an excellent job. We will definitely have her back again!
Kevin is an absolute gem! I recently had him watch my two dogs for three days while I was away in Phoenix, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I dropped them off, I knew they were in great hands. Kevin is attentive, caring, and genuinely loves animals — my pups came back happy, well-fed, and clearly well looked after. It’s not easy finding someone you can fully trust with your fur babies, especially for multiple days at a time, but Kevin made the whole experience completely stress-free. I didn’t have to worry for a single second while I was away. He went above and beyond, and it really showed. If you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and responsible to care for your dogs, look no further than Kevin. I will absolutely be calling him again the next time I need a dog sitter. Highly, HIGHLY recommend! 🐾

FAQs for House Sitting - Orlando
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Orlando on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 3,216 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.

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.
