“Angel was amazing, and truly was an angel for my animals! Grateful to have him house/pet sit. Communicated with me multiple times a day which made me feel at ease Highly recommend him. ♥️”
“Khaytlen is experienced, accommodating, and has lots of dogs around to play with. Her yard is a huge oasis it’s like a park. She also has a kennel setup and the ability to separate dogs or integrate them as needed. She did an excellent job with our 1yr old lab mix. He’s anxious around people and has some behavioral issues but Khaytlen was able to handle him very well. She was flexible when our plans changed and very understanding. Unlike boarding at a doggie daycare, she provides daily pack-walks, structured socializations and instills good habits.”
“Brooklyn has watched our dog Davy as well as our home twice now. She is very attentive to Davy’s needs. He requires daily medications and special care due to injury and she has been incredible at keeping up with all of that. She always sends us pictures to let us know how he is doing, and she leaves our house in great shape after she leaves. I would highly recommend Brooklyn as sitter!”
“Yvette was amazing with Penelope! Penelope is 16 and she can be picky with people, and she loved Yvette. Yvette was kind and gentle with her. We will be having Yvette come again!”
“Kristine and Lauren were amazing with my babies. Communication was stellar and coming home the house was probably cleaner than I left it. I would use them again as the proof is in the pudding - cats and dog are very happy.”
“This is our second time working with Lisa and we continue to be blown away by her!For this stay, we were expecting a baby and with only tentative times/dates up in the air, there was so much unknown. However, with Lisa’s flexibility and understanding, she gave us unbelievable peace of mind through this hectic time. She was accommodating, quick to communicate, and as always loving on our dog. We really love working with Lisa!”
“Reyna was so great with our pup! She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel so comfortable being away from home through videos and pictures. Our dog took to her sweet spirit immediately. She will be watching him again!”
“Me and my wife could not be any happier with the service that Megan provided. We've got a mixed house of 5 animals some of which have special needs, and she did an absolutely amazing job. We got pictures and communication every single day. Which is exactly what we requested. All the animals loved her, even the more skittish ones. If you need somebody to watch your animals and home, you could not pick a better person. I honestly can't say enough nice things about her. She's worth every penny.”
“She was really nice and took notes on everything we went over. Took amazing care of our disabled dog and kept the duo active while we were away. The pups loved playing with her!”
“Stephanie was great! We felt really good about leaving the dogs with her. She sent us pictures and funny stories about the dogs. I would definitely recommend her and would love to have her again.”
About: I helped my parents raise 4 litters of miniature dachsunds, all pure-bred and all sent to loving homes with good training. I've sat for all kinds of dogs - different breeds, sizes, personalities - and I love spending time with dogs and learning their pack mentality! I've watched big dogs like Irish Wolfhounds, Pit Bulls, Labradors and Akitas. I've watched dogs not only overnight but for a couple weeks at a time (vacation time for the "parents!").
“Victoria was attentive, asked questions about care of our two dogs, took detailed notes to be sure she had the information on hand to care for and handle any issues that might come up while sitting with our dogs. She kept a clean house and documented the each day, (care, walks, meals, and activities), with some pictures and notes to keep us informed. We will call on her again for our dog sitting needs.”
“Alexa and Connor, once again, crushed it! Our animals love them and they’re such good stewards of our home when we’re away. 12/10 would recommend them to anyone! They are so attentive and responsive. Positive experience every time.”
“Drew really cares about animals. They went above and beyond to take care of my dog Oakley often times taking them to the park and paid close attention to details about my dog. Communication was top tier and she always updated me with pictures! If I ever need to book again I’m choosing drew!”
“Hannah did a great job of communicating with me and sending pictures of my sweet girl. I came home to a happy and healthy pup. I have already booked our next stay”
“Elizabeth was the perfect companion for my dog while I was away for the weekend. She kept me well updated, asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s routines, and left the house decidedly better than she found it at the end of her pet sitting stay. She went truly above and beyond, and I came home to a happy, relaxed dog!”
“Great guy who helped me in a pinch! Very accommodating and offered other ways to help me. Would recommend him, and plan on getting his help again for my little doggo! Thanks so much”
“Quessandra did an amazing job with Bella. I reached out to her super late at night and last minute and she came through in a pinch. She also sent lots of pics which eased my mind. I will be using her again and again to keep Bella company.”
“Natalie always leaves our house in better condition than it was! Our dog Bear loves hanging out with her- she is a natural animal lover and we will continue to go to her whenever possible :)”
“We were so lucky to have found Zach on short notice to house sit for our two husky mixes over the weekend. He was friendly, great with our dogs (despite our girl having quite a bit of anxiety with new people) and made us feel comfortable with lots of updates throughout the weekend. He even ran with the dogs daily which was a huge plus! He left our house spotless, and when we came home, our dogs were calm and happy and clearly well looked-after. Thank you, Zach! We will definitely be coming back as a repeat client!”

Drew really cares about animals. They went above and beyond to take care of my dog Oakley often times taking them to the park and paid close attention to details about my dog. Communication was top tier and she always updated me with pictures! If I ever need to book again I’m choosing drew!
Christian did an excellent job with my fur babies! All 4 of them! Dogs were happy when I got home, not stressed. House was well kept, dishwasher started, looked like it did when I left! I was very pleased and would certainly recommend him and will definitely use him to house and dog sit Again!
Bre was amazing! She was able to accommodate a last minute request and was reliable and a quick communicator. She stayed at our house and was respectful of the home as well. I highly recommend using her and will definitely use her for future trips! Thank you for taking great care of Booger, Maya, and Mariner.
We had not booked Haley for a couple of years due to not traveling as much. Mango never forgot her and was so excited to see her. Mango also needed some extra care this time and Haley provided it. She did great with the kittens too. We are so lucky we found her and it we can leave our pets and home in her care without a worry. Thank you Haley!
April spent the weekend for her first overnight with my 22 year old cat, Paris. April checked in and sent pictures along the way which I really appreciated. She even sent one of Paris being a total ham and taking over April's entire arm for a cuddle/nap sesh so needless to say Paris enjoyed her time with April and can't wait for the next sleepover. April is great!
We had a great experience with Jeri over the 5 days she cared for our dogs. She was friendly and reliable, and communicated well throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Overall, we felt our dogs were in good hands and would happily recommend her to others.
I really enjoy Michelle’s daily updates and thoughtful communication! She puts my stress of leaving Millie at total ease and always puts Millie’s needs first. On top of that she is the most respectful and responsible house sitter too. So thankful we found such a great sitter - Thank you Michelle!
Lanii, was great!!! She was super communicative the whole time. Plenty of update pictures and even texted me when our anxious dog was having accidents in the house due to be nervous around new people. They both loved her instantly and were intimidated at all! I would highly recommend her as a sitter and we will definitely be using her services in the future!
Kaitlin is everything you would want in a pet sitter! Efficient communication, punctual and so very sweet to our animal crew! She sent pictures daily and was very detailed to ensure our large (and very medicated crew) was taken care of properly. We can't wait to have her back.
Rowan was very kind and respectful and instantly clicked with our pets (even our old cranky kitty loved him.) He sent us updates and pictures to let us know everyone was doing well as this was my first time using Rover, so it made me feel so much more at ease. He is a gem, and you should absolutely reach out to him to care for your pets. They will love their time with him.
Anna is incredible! Rey can be a little anxious and Anna was so sweet with her, spent so much time cuddling and outside with her and even took her on an outing to Home Depot! Anna gave frequent check ins and pictures, so it was always clear how Rey was doing, and I got to see firsthand what a great weekend she had. Anna was so conscientious and even cleaned up for us which was absolutely above and beyond. I couldn't recommend her more and will be using her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Parkland
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Parkland on Rover is $42.8 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 6,392 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Parkland. 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 Parkland 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 Parkland 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 Parkland 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.

- 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.
