“Terri was great. I felt very comfortable with her from our first meet and greet. I was so at ease while I was traveling. My dogs and cat were all very well cared for!”
“Charles did beyond a wonderful job caring for 3 animals. He was timely, did everything we discussed, and our dogs and cat were very happy with him. We got daily updates and photos, and our house looked amazing when we got back. We will definitely be booking him more in the future. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, Charles. Timber, Bear, and Thoomi can’t wait to see you again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Laci. She took such good care of our big needy golden doodle while were on vacation and sent me several pictures daily. She left our house super clean and went above and beyond any expectations we could have had. I highly recommend her!!!”
“Sarah once again was amazing! She had no issues with us extended our trip and that helped out so much! We really appreciate what she has done and will continue using her!”
“Beth took extra special care of our nervous poodle when a tropical storm happened to hit while we were gone. She was concerned when our poodle had trouble sleeping and figured out a way to make her more comfortable. Beth was really flexible even though we had to change a couple things about our original plan.”
“My pups are always so happy to see Nina. She gives them a lot of love and attention. I get pictures or videos all day long so I can see them and feel comfortable that they are in good hands.”
“We were hesitant at first for ANYONE to watch our girls since this was our first time using Rover. When we did a meet and greet, we wanted the girls to trust the person they would be seeing for a few days. We had our doggy cam and we saw how happy they would be with Elena at times playing and getting hugs. The pictures proved they enjoyed her presence and were being taken care of. We were happy with the effort and care she gave for our girls as a doggy lover and would book Elena again for future trips again.”
“Edward took care of Lolli extremely well! He is very respectful and responsive to check ins during his stay. No issues whatsoever and would recommend and would love to have Edward back!!”
“Best sitter possible. Our lucy was very well taken care of. Kara listened to all of our rules & exceeded our expectations of communication & friendliness. Extremely easy to work with & flexible. 10/10 will be re-scheduling.”
“I had the best experience possible with Miriam. She walked my dog took her to the beach, sent many pictures and videos. And some adorable Instagram posts! She houser for my dog for almost two weeks during the holidays. My house was in perfect condition when I returned and I could tell how happy my big chocolate Labrador baby was while she was cared for by Mariam. I will definitely call on her again to walk or care for my dog and my home!! Thank you so very much Miriam.”
“Emily watched our dachshund for the weekend and Max enjoyed every minute of it. She spent lots of time with him and gave him lots of cuddles. We will definitely be using Emily again”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—from lizards and other small animals to Great Danes. I understand that every pet has their own routine, comfort level, and specific needs. I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every animal as if they were my own, whether that means feeding, walking, playtime, medication support, or simply giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m primarily available Friday through Sunday for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and extended care. During the week, I’m also available for evening drop-ins after 6:00 p.m. and will follow your pet’s normal routine. I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals ranging from lizards to Great Danes. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions while keeping pets safe, comfortable, supervised, and treated like family.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7. I’ve always had 4 dogs within my home at once. I’ve taken care of pitbulls my whole life both young and old. I have 3 pitbulls who are part of my current daily routine. I’ve taken care of my friend’s and family’s animals who have variety of dogs from smaller dogs to big dogs. I love dogs especially pitbulls. I am also a very organized person and love to clean. Being organized and cleanly comes in handy with more hyperactive dogs and dogs who may have accidents within the home. I work full time at the hospital. I’m available every day after 6. I also have two days off during the week and every other weekend off. This allows me to have a more flexibility when it comes to having a second job. I truly love animals and want to help out where I can! I have a fenced in yard that I let my dogs play in. They also are able to roam around the house and I crate them when I leave for work. I play with my dogs at home and also allow my dogs to lay in bed with me. I make sure to give them attention they need. I would be able to do the same for my client’s animals. I will definitely keep them entertained and allow them the care they need.
“Jordan was amazing! She kept me posted with pictures and text to ensure I knew they were happy and enjoying themselves. We had a recent diagnosis for Miss Coco, and Jordan was so empathetic and put me at ease while I was out of town. Thanks again Jordan!!”
“Maddie is so, so wonderful. She is so kind and caring and was so good with our rescue dog, Sarah. Sarah is fearful of new people and Maddie’s calm and kind energy really helped Sarah trust her. It’s very clear that Maddie loves dogs and has a ton of experience. She sent lots of pics and video while we were on vacation and we knew Sarah was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything, Maddie! We are so grateful. -Linda and Mark”
About: I currently own a dog, a bird, a fish, and hamster. Ive grown around dogs and animals all my life. I understand body behavior and trust = patience. No dog is aggressive, its just scared. I got a 10 week old puppy last year, it now knows how to wait for its food until commanded, give paw, sit, laydown, and roll over. I love animals and have had experience my entire life! I work at a pizza hut with a pretty flexible schedule, I can always work around your schedule and im very flexible when it comes to having availability. I care for pets as if they were my own by following all instructions closely and prioritizing their safety and comfort. I make sure dogs get proper exercise, fresh water, and positive attention. I respect clients’ homes, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates for peace of mind.
“It’s very clear to us that Paige is a BIG animal lover! She treated our sweet girl with great care while we were traveling, and checked in with us each day with photos of her adventures. We’ve already rebooked Paige for dog sitting.”
“Kaylee was amazing taking care of our Napoleon while we went out of town. She was super patient with our teething puppy and gave lots of love and fun to Napo. Definitely recommend Kaylee to any pet parents out there 😊”
“Jillyn is an incredible dog sitter!! She took great care of not only my pup but also my home. I didn't worry about a thing while I was out of town. I would definitely recommend Jillyn and she will be the first person I'd reach out to for my future dog sitting needs!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Punta Rassa
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,045 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Punta Rassa. 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 Punta Rassa 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 Punta Rassa 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 Punta Rassa 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 Punta Rassa. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
