“Lisa was outstanding with our dogs. She loves your dogs like they are her own! She is great at communicating, trustworthy, and responsible. Also our house was cleaner than we left it!”
“This is the second time Denise stayed with Charley. We were gone a lot longer and I think was pretty confused and frustrated but Denise is pretty fantastic with him. As long as she is willing to take our monster, we'll have her do it every time. Hopefully he's a little better puppy next time.”
“10/10! How do I know Danielle is someone you want around your pets? We have a cat that has only ever liked 2 people, and now she likes 3. My daughter and I were both shocked when we got the picture of our cat on her lap. I also have a dog who suffers from separation issues and it takes him awhile to get back to normal. We returned home to happy animals who needed zero adjustment. With all of my animals taking so quickly to Danielle, there is no question about who we will have watch our fur babies in the future!”
“Nicole was an absolute joy to work with! I had to book last minute and she was the best! Super communicative, lots of cute pics, my pets were happy and healthy when I got home. Big fan- would absolutely recommend!”
“Izabella was very communicative while she pet sit our two cats over a long weekend. She sent photos and gave updates on how they were doing each visit. She even did an extra visit during the day once since she was so close to us! While staying overnight in our home, she was very respectful and left it just as clean as she found it! Would definitely hire her again.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since the day I was born. I grew up with them in my own home, helped take care of them at my best friend's house over the years (3 dogs and 3 cats!), and as I got older, worked at an animal shelter, volunteered as a foster mom, and dog-sat for lots of friends and acquaintances. Throughout all this, I've worked on basic training skills as well as given medications like antibiotics, dewormers, ear washes, etc. I am currently on my 20th foster dog, and have loved every one of them! (And yes, I did foster-fail on one…) I do seasonal work most of the year with a very flexible schedule, so I have lots of availability for walks, drop-ins, and sits! I love pet sitting in the client's home, so that the pets can be in the environment they're most comfortable in. I do my very best to follow all the client's normal routines, give their fur babies lots of love and attention, and respect their home as if it were my own.
About: I have helped out with friends and family’s pets for a few years. I feed, walk, bathe their pets. Love to play with them with their toys and sometimes give them treats if owner allows. I’m currently wide open with my time, flexible and able to work around your schedule with your pets. I am available during the week and weekends. In both scenarios, safety, trust, and the environment are paramount. In my home, I maintain a secure and pet-friendly environment, free from hazards. For clients' homes, I conduct thorough assessments to ensure a safe setting for their pets. I adhere strictly to any instructions provided by the pet owners, maintaining routines and environments familiar to the pets to minimize stress. I prioritize trust by communicating openly and transparently with clients, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Additionally, I strive to create a positive and nurturing environment, enriching pets' experiences with stimulating activities and plenty of love and attention.
“Evelyn is a top-tier sitter. Great communication (lots of photos, keep me apprised of the goings on while I was away), super respectful (I think my house was cleaner when I got back than when I left it), and most importantly: my boys loved her. Would book with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Evelyn!!”
“Despite the difficulty of my anxious dog, Geneva was very attentive and kept me informed throughout the day. She was very patient with my does needs and did a great job taking care of them.”
“Kaiden was amazing!! He sent so many pictures and updates even though we were only gone for a day. We came home to three very happy and very healthy pups. Will definitely look to book Kaiden again in the future!!”
“Haley was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of both our dog and our cat while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and loved receiving. When we got home, the house was spotless! Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Osceola is $30 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $47 per night.

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 Osceola 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 Osceola 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 Osceola 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
