“I needed a last minute sitter on the fly and Youm came to the rescue. Even though I was hesitant to have my 8 week old puppy be taken outside of her environment, Youm put me at such ease with constant updates on how she was doing and even continued to give updates after drop off. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have 6 years of experience caring for pets. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own! I currently work full-time as a nanny and house manager Monday through Friday, but I have a break in the middle of the day that allows for some weekday availability. I’m also available on weekends, Saturdays and Sundays, all day! I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance to make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority! I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and special instructions provided by pet parents. I also love sending updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes since 2014. I can handle picky eaters, special diets, and dogs that need lots of attention. I have a dachshund and a chow mix, and I would love to spoil your dogs like I spoil mine! I am a Scare Actor for Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. I am available during the day before and after my shifts, which should be around 8 hours. I am able to give your dog treats, play time, and crate them if needed. I always make sure water bowls are full, especially in the heat.
“Ana was phenomenal with Jeter. She listened and understood what our needs were for him. She was so sweet and she sent me photos throughout the day and communicated very well! Jeter loved her as well. We already booked her for a future date!”
“Devona is an excellent pet sitter - book her now! Devona is so good to our boy Moose! We feel 100% comfortable going away on vacation while Devona takes care of Moose. She takes good care of our home, too, and leaves our home just as we left it. I would not hesitate to book Devona again. Thank you, Devona!!!”
“Elizabeth stayed at our home and watched our two dogs, a hound and boxer/bulldog mix for 4 days and did a great job. She communicated well and sent photos each day. She was very considerate and respective of our home and left it spotless - even swept, mopped and changed the bed she slept in. I highly recommend Elizabeth as a pet sitter.”
“Our experience with Bella was fabulous. She was a great communicator, sent regular pictures, took Kobe on a ton of walks and over all just cared for our fur baby and home perfectly. We’ve had some not so great experiences with Rover in the past but Bella has proven to us that there is hope. Bella’s attention to detail is wonderful. We asked she avoid our backyard due to Kobe’s seasonal allergies with the grass and she did just that. This allowed Kobe to remain comfortable and not full of lumps and bumps like we’ve come home to in the past. She left our home what looked untouched and was kind enough to proactively share her work schedule so we knew when she’d be with Kobe vs not. We’d highly recommend Bella for anyone looking for a reliable, caring and sweet person to watch their pup especially in their own home. Thanks again, Bella! ☺️”
About: I grew up around all types of dogs, and currently have a cat that is my pride and joy, she is clicker trained, harness trained, and loves to go on sunset walks! I set my experience to 1 year because I have pet sat for neighbors over the years but not routinely, I adoreee animals and think all have their own personalities and love spending time and playing with all fur babies!!! I am a hybrid college student, attend classes once a week (Thursdays) so my schedule is pretty open, I prefer to be home at 8am and 8pm to feed and walk my cat but I am super flexible so long as you don’t mind me bringing my laptop to do some homework! :P I am a huge fan of time playtime, I will give your cat/dog a run for their money:) I will assure feeding time is don’t properly and timely.
“Showed up on time, asked intelligent questions about our dog to make sure she had all the information necessary, and was pleasant and courteous. Our dog liked her immediately and was happy and relaxed when we came home. A very comforting feeling!”
About: With a heart full of love and a pocket full of treats, I’m here to bring joy, comfort, and a little extra sparkle to your pet’s day. Whether it’s energizing walks, cozy cuddle sessions, or attentive pet-sitting, I make sure every furry friend feels safe, happy, and adored. I’m reliable, upbeat, and truly passionate about animals of all shapes and sizes. From playful pups to shy kitties (or divas), I get to know each pet’s unique personality and treat them like my own. You can count on me for punctuality, communication, and plenty of updates so you always know how your best buddy is doing. If you’re looking for someone who goes the extra mile (literally!) and brings good vibes to every visit, I’d love to help care for your pet. I've had my own pets and taken care of neighbors pets, family and friends pets, and voluteered at shelter from time to time. I walk dogs, long and lingering, letting them smell everything! It's like their morning paper, they "read" up on the neighborhood. I go different routes for variety! I'll throw a ball, try to teach paw, and give lots of cuddles and kisses. I even sing to the lucky dogs and cats! Some sing with me! I am ready any day after I get off work, around 7pm. Perfect for an evening walk with owners who may be in the medical or hospitality field and work nights. Or on my day's off which are Thursday and Sunday. Anytime on those days. My home has a comfy couch or bed. I have a huge yard at the end of a road so no traffic! We'll fur sure leash walk though so no worries! I’m reliable, warm, and always ready with a happy tune or a squeaky toy. Expect cheerful updates, cute photos, and a pet who can’t wait for their next Tammy-time.
“Isis was great. She took the time to do a meet and greet before my trip, to get the lay of the land and meet the pups. Throughout the tip got regular updates about how the pups were getting on, and very responsive to messages sent throughout the trip.”
“Kaley was so good to my Murphy boy! Updated me throughout the day constantly with pictures, I love how I didn’t even have to ask for that. She stayed in my home with Murphy and had everything the way I left it when I got back home. Kaley will be my preferred pet sitter from now on!”
“Naturally I was so nervous leaving Harlow with someone new but Staycee made me feel so at ease. She was flexible and accommodating. She sent daily updates with pictures. The house was left exactly how I left it. She’s amazing, would definitely recommend!”
“Jonathan was recommended to me by family member and I'm glad they recommended Jonathan. Great communication for planning and during the stay. Will definitely be using Jonathan again.”
“Cynthia was incredible! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos of our girl. This was the first time we have left our baby girl since the death of our other fur baby, Dexter, in December, so we were really nervous leaving her. Cynthia eased all of our nerves by spoiling our girl rotten, which I personally believe every dog deserves. Thank you, Cynthia, for loving on our fur baby so well. Will definitely be using Cynthia on a regular basis for doggy sitting.”
“Rylee did a fantastic job helping us look after our 2 boys. She communicated well and kept us updated on everything. Would love to keep working with her in the future!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Pine Castle is $45

Rhonda was absolutely amazing with our sweet Sunny! Sunny is very attached to her mommy and papa and isn’t used to being away from us, but she really warmed up to Rhonda, which meant the world to us. Rhonda was so caring, patient, and attentive, and she truly put my mind at ease while we were away. Knowing my sweet baby was in such good hands made all the difference. We are so grateful for the love and care she gave Sunny and will definitely be using her again! Thank you so much, Rhonda! ❤️🐾
This was our second time having Jayden watch Mars, and once again, the experience was absolutely fantastic. Mars is an incredibly affectionate dog who demands constant love and attention, and she completely matched her energy. It can be tough to find a sitter who truly leans into a velcro-dog's need for endless cuddles and playtime, but she made Mars feel like the center of the universe the entire time. Throughout the stay, I received wonderful updates and photos showing Mars looking completely content and showered with affection. It brings so much peace of mind knowing I can leave my dog with someone who genuinely loves and understands her personality. Jayden is officially our go-to sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for attentive, top-tier pet care!
Cynthia was absolutely wonderful with our boys! She sent us lots of photo and video updates every morning and evening, which we really appreciated and looked forward to while we were away. We could tell that she went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and having a good time. She was incredibly attentive, kind, and thoughtful, and she also kept our home very tidy throughout her stay. It was clear when we returned that our boys had been in great hands, which alleviated so much of the stress and worry that comes with leaving them behind. They are truly part of our family, so having someone we could trust to care for them so well meant a lot to us. We are so grateful we found her and will absolutely be reaching out again for any of our future pet-sitting needs. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur babies!
Susan was great, she came to our hotel and stayed with our pups while we went and enjoyed Discovery Cove and Aquatica. Meeting Susan before hand was a pleasure and our pups took to her and didn't want to leave her side. We felt very at ease while we were out enjoying the various activities. She sent us pictures and kept us updated with what the pups were up to. This was our first time using Rover and Susan has some very good reviews and she surpassed them with the care and understanding that made our weekend vacation stress free and enjoyable. We look forward to having Susan help us out again when we visit Orlando and our pups really did enjoy spending time with her.
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.
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!
Danny has been such a valuable help! We travel a lot and have relied on family/friends for so long and have been hesitant to find a sitter because our dogs are difficult. As rescue dogs, they are afraid to go outside, have special dietary preferences, and are very hesitant to meet new people. Danny somehow makes them feel comfortable and takes the best pictures of them, which means they are comfortable interacting with him! We are so thankful for his help and will definitely be using his sitting services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Pine Castle is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $42 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Pine Castle 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 Pine Castle 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 Pine Castle 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pine Castle. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
