“Sydne came over to babysit my pups for a firework holiday because one of them is very nervous, and she did really well with them. I got updates all evening, and she asked questions if she needed. I felt nervous at first, because I had a bad experience with someone last year, but she was a breath of fresh air for me. I'll definitely be contacting her again!”

“I have so many great things to say about Analia and I probably won’t fit them all in this review, but I’m going to try. My partner and I were going on a cross country road trip for two weeks and found ourselves in need of a sitter for our two dogs the day we were supposed to leave for our trip. Before we even met, Analia left an incredible impression. She was compassionate, understanding, and flexible. She agreed to watch our dogs and stop by less than 12 hours before we had to leave. Our dogs are still young and in training, and for some people they can be a bit overwhelming. Analia was not phased at all by this, and from our first interactions, I could tell she was going to give just as much love and attention as we would. She had already looked over our care instructions and remembered facts about them, but she really took it a step further by asking how she could continue their training (something that means a lot to us, but we don’t always expect of others because it can be challenging; we were floored by her thoughtfulness and generosity). We left town feeling so secure having Analia taking care of our dogs. Analia continued to exceed expectations throughout our trip. She very intentionally sent updates, photos, and videos nearly every day, was super flexible when we ran out of food because our shipment didn’t come in, and went out of her way to bring our dogs new toys. When our arrival back home was delayed, Analia was incredibly accommodating and watched the dogs for a couple extra days despite it being last minute and her already having other plans. I feel so lucky to have been connected with Analia, not only because she was a great sitter for our dogs, but because she is such a kind and compassionate person, and was someone I thoroughly enjoyed talking to throughout our trip. She truly is a gem, and someone we will continue to trust our dogs with. If you take anything away from this review, it is that you should end your search here and choose Analia, because you will not regret it.”

“Autumn was great! I came home to two happy dogs and a clean house. She was accommodating of my dogs' special needs, and went above and beyond cleaning up a particularly nasty accident. She also faced a personal hardship during her stay, and was incredibly proactive, professional, and communicative during the ordeal. She could have easily bailed and left me in a bind, but she was flexible, adapatable, and clearly willing to do what it takes to get the job done. You don't see that every day anymore! This booking was for an emergency medical situation, and she was great about not pestering me with a million questions or stressing me out with unnecessary play-by-plays. I trusted that "no news was good news," and that she could hold the fort down. Can't thank her enough for keeping this worry off my plate!”

About: Apart from taking care of my own dog with epilepsy from ages 14-18, I worked as a dog walker in NYC at My Dog Hikes. While working at My Dog Hikes, I walked dogs, pet sat, and took them to the van for a day long excursion in up state New York. My schedule is increasing free these days after my graduation from Florida State University. I teach guitar lessons at Mason's School of Music one day a week, and would love to fill this time with animal interaction. I am an avid exercise enthusiast and would take them to the parks for walks or runs. When I care for a pet, I pay attention to what the pet is needing at that moment. It is easy to acknowledge and address these signs while doing other things around the house. I am able to take dogs out very easily to our backyard with a leash. When I am in a client's home, I am respectful of the space and leave everything exactly as they left it. I was required to do this in Manhattan often. I would receive a client's house keys and walk their dog while they were at work.

“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”

About: My background as a Pre-Vet student with 400+ hours of volunteer experience in shelters and therapeutic programs helps me daily in this field . I'm calm and confident with all temperaments—skilled in easing anxious pets, entertaining energetic pups, and providing gentle care for animals of all . Animal care is my passion, and I display that dedicated, high-level attention to every pet I sit. As a college student, my schedule includes flexible breaks between classes and labs, making it easy to fit in regular drop ins, walks, and playtime. Evenings and weekends are more likely to be open for extended care and house sitting. When caring for pets in your home, safety and respect are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules while keeping your space clean and secure, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.

About: Hi there! My name is Rachel & my fiancé and I recently relocated to Tallahassee for his new job. I am currently in the process of studying for my Florida Teaching Certification. My love for teaching young children and education is something I pride myself on. At the moment, I am nannying for a family in the Tallahassee area! For the entirety of my life, I have been around dogs. My family has had two miniature pinschers and a Jack Russel. I have dog sat for families with Golden Doodles, Australian Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Daschaunds - the list goes on! I am open to staying the night to watch dogs while their owners are away, coming to walk dogs during the day or even just keeping them company when need be. I would love to learn more about how I can provide help with watching your dogs in the future. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I'm relocating to Tallahassee at the end of July and will be job hunting, which means I'll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or just giving them extra attention and companionship, I'll make sure they receive the care they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I love providing owners with peace of mind while they're away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I do my best to stick to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. That includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and, of course, plenty of love and attention. I'll also keep your home tidy, clean up after your pet, and send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing they're happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet!

About: My family has had dogs for the past 8 years. I also have 3 years of dog-sitting experience with a variety of dogs, including some with special needs. I'm very comfortable adapting to each dog's personality and routine. I'm new to the city and work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. I'd love to explore the city with your dog, whether that's neighborhood walks, park visits, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, house rules, and favorite activities. I know that pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while respecting their normal routine.

About: Hi, my name is Catherine and I am looking to help out by walking dogs and performing drop-in visits! I’ve grown up with dogs in the home for my entire life. We have had many different sizes and breeds, allowing me to become more familiar with different behaviors and tendencies. I also had a private dog sitting job where I watched 2 dogs and a cat on weekdays. I would walk the dogs, prepare them dinner, and play with them at the park. This job allowed me to learn how to handle dogs other than my own. I love animals and will make sure to treat them well. I will be able to come to the house and feed, walk, and clean up after the pets. I can give them medicine if needed, and prepare food specially if needed. I will play with them or simply walk them around. Since I am working part time, I will have free time. However, my schedule is not exactly the same each week. I will choose bookings around that schedule to ensure that I am free. Tuesdays I don’t work, so I would be completely free. Most days I would be free in the morning or evening. I am ready to help and meet new animals!! I work part time at Publix, but will definitely be able to dog sit. I have lots of free time and am excited to spend it with animals. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs, but one lives with my mom. One dog is in home with me. They are both friendly.

About: Although most people see this as a job, i see pet-sitting as a fun and exciting opportunity to make new friends all with their own personalities:)! Seeing as i don’t really find myself going out much now-a-days, pet sitting seems like the only right option needed to be taken way sooner. I believe in everyone having their own schedules for their babies, so i try to keep their routines to allow more comfort for all parties.

Gabby is the BEST. I have 3 dogs, 2 are the pickiest eaters I've ever had, and Gabby gets them to eat! Nothing short of a miracle. Like anyone who loves their dogs, you worry and feel guilty you left them and Gabby takes those worries away with her patience and love for your fur babies.

Victoria was an absolute lifesaver for us while we were visiting Alligagor Point this year! We needed last-minute care for our sweet Angel girl so we could enjoy a fishing charter we had to readjust with weather (on go home day) and Victoria went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly accommodating with our schedule and even came to pick Angel up from the marina, which made things so much easier for us. From the moment they met, it was obvious how much she loves animals. Angel was completely spoiled with attention and care—even after being a little mischievous and deciding to take an unexpected swim in their pool! Victoria is kind, responsible, communicative, and has the sweetest personality. You can tell she genuinely enjoys spending time with the pets she cares for, and they absolutely adore her right back. She’s heading off to college soon, so if you’re looking for an amazing sitter this summer, book her while she’s still local! We would trust her with Angel again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend her highly enough. We hope she is back home from college next summer when we revisit so that Angel can hang out with her again. We only wish we had found her sooner in the week so that Angel could have had a few more play dates while we were in town.

Gabby went above and beyond for us. This was our third time having her house sit our two pups. Our old girl needed special care this trip and Gabby did a great job. And as always, kept us informed of how things were going. We are so grateful!

Gabby is everything we could wish for in a pet sitter! Dependable, conscientious, caring and a great communicator. She took great care of our 2 dogs and our house. This was Gabby's second time house sitting for us and we hope to use her again. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

FAQs for House Sitting - Shadeville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Shadeville is $36 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $38 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.

As of November 2026, there are 337 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Shadeville. 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 Shadeville 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 Shadeville 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 Shadeville 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 Shadeville. On Rover:

  • 90% 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.
