Terri was great with my babies. She sent me pictures often and kept me updated on how they were doing. When I returned home, my apartment was still clean and well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.

Emma is wonderful! From the meet and greet to watching our home and pups for the weekend, it was such a comfort knowing everything was in great hands. She was friendly, communicative, and patient, and did a great job helping our 1- and 2-year-old pups acclimate while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Emma!

Jana was an amazing sitter! She kept us informed of our pets with numerous pics & texts. Our dogs loved her! She monitored their time outside, in the fenced yard. One of our dogs has separation anxiety so we need to place things out of his reach or he will tear them up. She totally understood him. We will definitely use Jana again :-)

Madi was fabulous and took such great care of our two dogs. The dogs warmed up to her so quickly and that put us at ease to enjoy our time away. She even went above and beyond and had the home as clean as it was when we left. She sent pics and updates and responded quickly. We hope to have her help again soon!

Abbie was great with both of my pets and a trusting in-home sitter. She gave both my dog and cat wonderful attention, made sure they were well loved, and I had no concerns that their schedules or routine would be too different while I was away. My pup requires medication every 12 hours which is always stressful for me when I can’t be there, but Abbie made sure to keep me up to date that it was being given timely and without any issues during my trip. She communicates frequently and sends lots of pictures to let you know that your fur babies are doing great while they’re in her care which is very comforting. She truly takes care of them like they are her own and I look forward to using her services again in the future!

Debra was awesome! I can’t say enough good things about her. I booked her months in advance for a 2 week house/dog sitting job while we were out of the country. I had never before left my babies for such a long time and wanted to make sure I found the right person. I feel like we threw her a lot of curveballs with last minute changes and problems during her stay and she just rolled with the punches. She was so flexible and understanding. Our only concern from all the pictures and messages she sent was how spoiled rotten our little Bailey would be when we got home 🤣. Debra is the best - 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and currently have two amazing cats of my own that I care about deeply. Over the years, I’ve become very comfortable with different cat personalities — from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and giving cats a calm, stress-free environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I am a recently graduated college student with a flexible schedule. I am available for drop-in feedings/attention regularly throughout the week and the same goes for house-sitting and boarding. My cats, as well as my dogs, are viewed by my family and I as members of our family. We love all of our pets deeply and whenever your pet is with us, they will receive that same affection and attention.

She was a absolute gem. Professional, caring and loving to our dog Buddy. She kept in constant contact with us while we were away and returned any text or phone contact we made with her regarding Buddy. We had never used this program before and were very skeptical if the individuals working and reviewed were as accurate as portrayed. Abbie was beyond our expectation and the care she gave our dog was exemplary and receives our highest recommendation for others. Her care for our home for the period was good and we returned with no issues.

Tarah was like the dog whisperer, Caesar Milan when it came to our anxious fur baby. Our dog took to her immediately which gave us peace of mind to leave her for a brief overnight stay. We are now booking with Tarah for a follow-up 2-night stay. She left the house exactly as it was when we left… clean and tidy which is a plus!

FAQs for House Sitting - Palmona Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Palmona Park on Rover is $57 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 976 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Palmona Park. 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 Palmona Park 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 Palmona Park 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 Palmona Park 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 Palmona Park. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
