“Jennifer had a challenging sit with our cat and dog. We were gone for 8-9 days. She stayed with them and took on the challenges of our geriatric cat and reactive dog. She came to visit several times before our trip. It was important to her that things go well. Within several days, our dog was sleeping with her. She has a calm, kind, and trustworthy aura. Leaving our animals was going to be very stressful, but it wasn’t. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our pets were being taken well care of. Would and probably will use her again. Thank you so very much Jen.”
“Glory was great with the animals, my dog is very skittish of people and she took her time with him. WE had some issues with flights on our way back into the country and she was willing and ready to come back if need be”
“So very happy we found Evelyn. She is kind and very capable. Took notes on everything and made us feel as if our sweet cat and home would be in excellent care for the 8 days we were gone. And they were. The photo updates were fun and reassuring. We highly recommend. We will be calling on Evelyn the next time we gone. She brought us lots of peace of mind and Oz loved her. Many thanks!”
About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.
“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Maria! She stayed in our home for 2 nights and 3 days to care for our three Goldendoodles, two of whom are just 5-month-old puppies. Anyone familiar with Goldendoodles, especially puppies, knows that this is no small undertaking! From start to finish, Maria exceeded our expectations. She was incredibly attentive, followed all of our instructions perfectly, and kept our home spotless and tidy. What we appreciated most was her communication. She consistently sent thoughtful updates, photos, and videos, giving us complete peace of mind knowing our pups were in such capable and loving hands. She even managed to capture what is now one of my all-time favorite photos of the puppies! Caring for three dogs simultaneously, especially two energetic and mischievous puppies, requires an exceptional amount of patience, attentiveness, and experience. Maria handled it all effortlessly, which speaks volumes about her competence and genuine ability to care for animals. It’s not easy finding someone you can wholeheartedly trust with both your pets and your home, but Maria has absolutely earned that trust. We returned to three happy, well-cared-for pups and a beautifully maintained home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We would recommend Maria without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter. She’s officially our go-to whenever we need to get away, and we’re so grateful to have found her!”
About: My many years of owning pets and working at a veterinarian facility has given me many different experiences with pets. My love for pets would be shown in the love and care I would provide for each any every pet I take care of. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 guinea pig, and 1 bearded dragon, with each one getting equal love and care. I would provide your pet with the same love and care that I give my own pets. If you choose me as your sitter or walker, know that I have the years of experience and understanding of different pets and know that each pet has its own personality. I look forward to getting to know each of your pets. I am currently doing online classes right now to better my self. I have more time then I use to, to help others that may not have as much time as they would like to help with their pets. I am unable to watch any pets at my personal home because of one of my dogs doesn’t like other pets. But I would take care of someone else’s home like it was my own with my own animals. If a fence is available we would play outside. If not we would walk around the neighborhood.
“I had a great experience with our dog sitter, Ayana. She provided excellent care for Lulu and Astro during my weekend trip, ensuring they were comfortable, well looked after, and not left alone. She was attentive to detail, communicated effectively, and even handled a potty accident promptly and thoroughly. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors, as well as northern breeds like Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, and wolf-dog hybrids. I'm highly observant of behavior and body language, recognize early signs that something may be wrong, and provide attentive, individualized care. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets healthy, safe, and comfortable.. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I'm able to plan my day around a pet's needs. Whether that's potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or keeping a consistent routine, I have the flexibility to provide reliable care. I enjoy staying active and am happy to accommodate each pet's energy level, from walks and jogging to playtime, enrichment, or simply relaxing and keeping them company. Every pet is different, and I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I review all care instructions with the owner before they leave to ensure I understand their pet's routine and needs. I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure, follow all safety instructions, and stay attentive to the pet's behavior and surroundings. My priority is keeping both the pet and the home safe while they're in my care.
About: -walking pets -bathing pets -scooping litter -giving meds -playing with pets -senior pet care -special needs pet care -small pets care -trim nails -food accommodations I'm a college student and my life basically revolves around pets. I like to be organized with my schedule so that all the pets I care for get everything the need without fail, I can br flexible though if something needs to be adjusted. I have quite a few pets of my own and I love all pets just like I love my own! I'm willing to have small pets stay over at my house, I have experience with guinea pigs, gerbils, and hermit crabs. Pets such as dogs and cats I will come over to your house. I can walk them, stick to a feeding schedule, play with them, groom them, and give them all the attention they need!
“Brittany is an amazing dog sitter!! She’s so sweet and put my mind at ease right away. Brittany loves animals, she took great care of my pup and my house. She also took pics and videos so I could see what my baby was up to. Don’t hesitate, you can trust her with your fur baby! My vaca was stress free knowing my dog was in great hands with Brittany.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with our animals, she sent many detailed updates and some really cute photos! Our house looked wonderful when we returned. We will definitely be using her for our next vacation!”
“Orly was great with 2 goldens and they loved her as soon as they met. She sent frequent updates and we had peace of mind of enjoying a vacation while she watched our home and dogs. Highly recommend her!”
About: You would never know but I used to be afraid of dogs as a child. After we added a golden retriever named Joe to our family, I've been obsessed with dogs ever since. He passed away 6 years ago now and has left me longing to care for pups. I spent the summer helping my sister with her dog sitting business up north and am looking to do occasional dog sitting in the Orlando area. I am a preschool teacher during the week so I would be available to dogsit on the weekends. Or during the week if the situation allows. I would show your pup lots of love and attention! I feel comfortable going on long walks, playing fetch and keeping the dog on his daily routine to manintain his comfort while his family are away.
“Tara was great with Oz during the weekend we were gone, and followed all the instructions I gave her. She’s very easy to work with and Oz liked her company too. would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter !”
“Benjamin took amazing care of our little dog. Our dog immediately gravitated to Benjamin upon meeting. We received periodic updates and photos which we greatly appreciated from Benjamin when he watched our dog, would definitely recommend and would definitely work with him again in the future.”
About: While I may not have years of experience like some, my love for animals does not fall short. I have taken care of dogs, big and small. Some with dietary restrictions and rigid feeding routines and others with a more lax regimen. I have house sat/pet sat and stayed in the owner’s home on multiple occasions. I’ve taken care of four dogs of various sizes at once, done drop-ins to feed/change water and let the puppers out for friends and family members, and I’ve also stopped by to do something as simple as a quick walk. Whatever you need, I can do it! I can assure you that I will treat your pet as my own. I currently work full time at a law firm in downtown but I live in Sanford. I have a reliable car and I don’t mind driving. I can pet sit/house sit on weekdays but I have work so it would be morning care and evening/night. I can also take a midday break if needed. I am off on the weekends so I will be able to be there full time. Depending on the owner, I have put pets into their crates when leaving the house or at night for sleeping but I have also let them roam freely, if the owner allows it.
About: had many big dogs I've cared for and 2 German shepherds of my own as well as cats. I also took care of animals on a farm, from goats to pigs..I don't have any pets of my own right now so will probrably end up spending more time with them then discussed just because I do enjoy it 😊 I can negotiate times but i am available most of the week . I am currently trying to open an animal rescue/adoption center here in apopka so all proceeds will be going towards that 🙏 I will take care of your home and pet as if it were my own and can play /walk /clean up , whatever is needed while im there.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sorrento
Janine was a big help and stayed with our 3 pups at our house for a weekend. She gave us updates, sent photos and reached out with any questions she had. We felt our dogs were very well taken care of while she was staying with them and would use her services again!
Marisa and her son were absolutely amazing. They met all my expectations and needs watching over my babies while I was gone for my anniversary trip. I especially loved that she kept contact and let me know how the cats were doing with pictures included (kept me at ease, especially since I'm an anxious pet parent). I appreciate her dedication, communication, and passion for animals and especially meeting our needs. Thank you!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Sorrento is $22 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 2,835 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sorrento. 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento. 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.
