“Taylor did an amazing job watching my dog Presley. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I really appreciated the consistent updates.

Taylor is reliable, thoughtful, and I will absolutely be booking with her again.”

“Carter is an absolute BLESSING!!! He showed up as promised on time and followed all of my (100 overboard) requests for caring for my high maintenance French Bulldog. Carter ensured Biscuit was SAFE, LOVED and WALKED consistently. He even went so far to collaborate with my neighbor who has a Frenchie for play time every single day. He respected and took care of my puppy and my home for multiple days! I highly recommend this sitter. He’s a GEM !”

About: I’ve always been the person who gets way too excited when there’s a dog at the party. 😂 I truly love animals and know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and favorite things. Whether your pet wants to go on an adventure, play all day, or spend the afternoon cuddled up on the couch, I’m happy to match their energy. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pet like part of the family—with plenty of pictures along the way, of course! 🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a priority! I’m able to work walks, drop-ins, playtime, and plenty of attention into my day without your pet ever feeling rushed. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, because I know consistency is important—especially when their favorite human is away Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I do my best to stick to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you leave for me. I’m big on giving each pet the attention they need—whether they’re a cuddle bug, full of energy, or just like having someone nearby. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m also very respectful of their space and always make sure everything is left just as I found it (or better!). And of course, expect lots of pictures and updates
“Alexis took such good care of my girls. She was also amazing during the meet and greet with my crazy boy Archie (I already had him booked for refresher training during this trip). I’ll definitely be going to Alexis as a trusted sitter for my tribe from here on out!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12, breeds ranging from Chihuahua to Great Dane. Reliable, have administered medications before and gone on nice long walks. Currently working as a Barista. But more than willing to work around whatever schedule! Just let me know in a timely manner what days and times you’d need me and I’ve got you covered! Currently raising a mutt who is high strung, but a cutie. Frequent walks, plenty of play time, and lots of cuddles! Like having some fun!
“Haleigh did an amazing job caring for our two dogs. She kept their schedule of walks and feeding like they are used to. Lots of snuggles and walks and wonderful pictures showing their day. The house was clean and neat when we returned home. It was a joy having her, we look forward to having her the next time we travel.”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life, both as a pet owner and by helping friends and family with their pets. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is truly my passion. I also have experience caring for senior and geriatric dogs, so I understand the patience, attention, and extra care they often need. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or older and needs a gentler approach, I will treat them with the same love and care I would give my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets, whether that means walks, playtime, or extra attention and care. I am available Monday through Sunday and can work with a variety of schedules to help meet your pet care needs. I will give your dog or cat my full attention during every visit, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also pay close attention to each dog’s safety, comfort, and individual needs during every walk.
“Stephanie took great care of Onyx. We booked her to housesit and stay at our place to watch Onyx. She was respectful of our home. She was very attentive to Onyx and her needs as a senior dog. Great communication. Great under pressure. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing! We had booked her somewhat last minute for a holiday weekend but she was nothing but kind and accommodating. She kept us regularly updated with how the dogs were doing, and they seemed to have a great time playing catch and keep away! Definitely recommend booking with Hannah and we will be asking her to take care of the pups on our next vacation.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Sawgrass is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $88 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 Sawgrass 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 Sawgrass 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 Sawgrass 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.
