“Sandra has a beautiful soul. She took such good care of my babies. She sent me pictures of them made into these lovely collages that I know took time and care to create. I rebooked her for my next trip already!”
“Erin was absolutely outstanding! She was arrived on time and was extremely communicative, sending us updates daily complete with adorable photos and videos of our babies. She even went out of her way to bathe our two big pups before we returned from our trip, stripped the guest bedroom sheets, and I’m pretty sure she vacuumed for us! One of the most stressful parts of retuning from a long trip is coming home to a dirty house and dirty puppers. She made the transition home seamless and couldn’t have taken better care of our two dogs and two kitties while we were out of town for 5 days! We will definitely be booking with Erin again for our next trip!! 😊”
“Jenna did a great job communicating while taking care of our dogs! It was clear she spent a lot of her time with them making sure they were comfortable while we were on vacation. Would definitely recommend her to dog sit!”
“Lauren surpassed our expectations in every way! She took great care of our dogs and kept in touch with updates. We were completely at ease, knowing they were in good hands. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I have had so many opportunities to take care of fur babies throughout my life! I lived in a farm for most of it but as an adult I have had my dog all through college up until now. I intentionally keep my schedule flexible so I can give each pet the attention they need. I enjoy spending time outdoors and love making sure every fur baby gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to keep that routine consistent while you're away. During visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, take your pet on walks or let them out for potty breaks, play with them, give them plenty of love and attention, and clean up after them as needed. I'll also make sure your home is respected and secure by following any instructions you leave. My goal is to help your fur baby feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in the place they know best.
“Emma was amazing while we were away while she looked after our cat. Got lots of updates and pics of our boy and the house was perfectly looked after. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Christie accommodated our last minute request to care for our precious Stella. She kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout our trip, which made it so much easier to relax and enjoy ourselves. Christie also administered Stella’s medication, and Stella is feeling so much better now thanks to her care. Thank you, Christie, for taking such wonderful care of Stella!”
About: I have a friendly dog that always wants a new friend. I have plenty of time to be able to spend time with your fur baby to ensure they feel welcomed and at home. **hablo español tambien** I currently work from home. I can be here for your fur baby all day and night the same way that I already am for my fur child. Your dog’s well-being is my #1 priority. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pup can feel secure and cared for—whether it’s for a short visit or an extended stay. Safety First: I carefully follow all instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, leash use, crate routines, and more. I only use your leashes or secure, well-maintained leashes, harnesses, and gates to ensure your dog stays safe at all times—indoors and outdoors. I supervise all playtime (especially with toys or other dogs) to prevent any accidents or overstimulation. Trust & Communication: I treat your pet like one of my own—with patience, kindness, and respect. I'm reliable, punctual, and committed to maintaining your dog's regular routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. A Calm, Clean & Comfortable Space: Whether I’m staying in your home or welcoming your dog into mine, I create a peaceful environment with cozy resting areas, fresh water, and a consistent routine. I take cleanliness seriously and always make sure the space is tidy, sanitized, and safe for all pets. Your dog will have plenty of love, attention, and the space to relax, play, and just be themselves. Let me take care of your dog with the same love and attention you would give them yourself—so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Amy provided us with a perfect week. First of all, she got along wonderfully with our daughters, met all our needs, and communicated with us remarkably well. Honestly, it was our first time using this system, and we were quite worried at the start, but thanks to Amy, we enjoyed a safe and enjoyable one-week vacation. We wish we could give her not just 5 stars, but 100 stars. Our endless thanks to her.”
About: From cats, dogs, chickens and ferrets, I’ve grown up around all animals and know how to care for their specific wants needs and personality types. I am a full time student but taking care of pets has been a normal part of my day. I am currently taking classes online so my schedule is very flexible. Whether it’s feeding or changing water before I head to class and letting a pet outside during a break it has become routine for me. In my home I make sure my animals food and water bowls are always clean. If they’ve made a mess for any reason that will be cleaned up as soon as possible. I also understand certain animals have physical needs or wants so cuddling or walking softly around the house is understandable.
“Tiffany was amazing! I booked her last minute after an issue with a scheduled sitter. My dog ended up being sick 2 days before I left for vacation and Tiffany took exceptional care of him, giving him his meds and making sure he was comfortable. I cannot thank her enough! She kept me updated and assured me he was ok. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was was a preteen, helping family, friends, and neighbors! I am very patient and loving with all animals and treat them as if they are my own! I am lucky enough to create my own work schedule and work from home daily. I have plenty of spare time to care for your animal. Patience with your animals is my key to success. Every animal takes time to adjust to different circumstances. I was raised to leave places better than how I found them if I am responsible for your animal in your home.
“Rochelle was very communicative and friendly! She sent multiple photos through out her stay which was appreciated. She did exactly what was asked and took great care of our dog. Thank you Rochelle! :)”
“Jennifer is great, the best pup sitter we’ve had so far. She was so caring and loving to our pup during her stay. She was in constant communication with photos and fun videos. We will definitely choose to book with her again. 10/10 recommend!”
“Allison was so sweet and kind-hearted! I was so nervous leaving my kitties and she helped so much! She was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond. I will definitely use her the next time I’m out of town!!”
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I grew up with dogs and also had a small dog of my own in my early adult years. My mom also had two cats, so I’m comfortable around both dogs and cats and familiar with their different personalities and needs. While I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, I do have years of personal experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, playing, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m patient, dependable, and will treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I’m available for pet care in the mornings before 10 a.m. and in the evenings after 6 p.m. This schedule allows me to give your pet dedicated, unrushed attention for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I have a spacious home with plenty of room for pets to feel comfortable and a fenced-in yard where they can safely enjoy outdoor time. I provide a clean, calm, and caring environment and will always follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and at home.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Seffner is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Seffner
Tiffany was very sweet and got along incredibly well with our 5 dogs. It takes a truly special person to handle a pack of 3 German Shepherds and 2 Border Collies, and she did a great job! She communicated thoroughly both before and during the stay, and she took wonderful care of them. Overall, she’s very sweet and my dogs clearly loved having her around! Thank you so much for looking after our kids!
Hannah was exactly what we needed. We were gone for 2 weeks and she took amazing care of our home and fur babies. Left our place in great shape and sent us updates and pictures while we were gone. She is very kind and professional. I will definitely book with her again! If you want someone trustworthy and no stress or worry while you are gone, contact Hannah!
Extremely reliable. Arrived exactly on time. She immediately got down with Charlie (who is recovering from surgery), and even though he is typically shy, he took to her right away. The pictures showed she took extra care. Plus her sitting with my boy at our home was necessaryfor him. And those 4 hours allowed me to run errands and such. Will use again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Seffner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Seffner on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,135 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Seffner. 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 Seffner 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 Seffner 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 Seffner 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
