“Terri was a great dog sitter, staying at our house for a long weekend. She is very friendly and a real dog lover. She was prompt, followed our instructions, and sent daily photos. Kody had a calm, happy staycation in Terri's care.”
“Emma was wonderful. She took care of my house. She brought my mail in and my dogs absolutely loved her. I would most definitely use her again five stars. Liz Joseph”
“Kashmir was great with our boys. I think they like her more than they like us🥴 She sent pictures to us during her stay with them. I appreciated that very much. I think she spoiled them so much during her stay they’re actually disappointed to have us back home😳😂 We will definitely ask Kashmir to watch our boys again. Thank you Kashmir!! From Charlie and Short Round”
“Amazing!!! Sooo grateful to have found Debra after MANY “flops” on this app. She’s super. Great communication. Very punctual. Very reliable. Extremely flexible and easy to work with.”
“Angelina was great. She took good care of our dog as well as our house. Our flight was delayed overnight so she changed her plans and returned last minute. We’ll call on her again as needed.”
About: My husband and I grew up loving dogs and, in fact, met through our pups. A real life case of puppy love! I grew up raising labs with my parents and through my work abroad have come to adopt two dogs of my own - Chance from Sudan and Mia from Colombia. My husband , David, studied veterinary medicine in Colombia where he has offers private dog training and runs a successful dog school (Gooddog Colegio Canino Campestre) for nearly 10 years. We hope to open a pet shop in MD soon. In the meantime, we hope to make more furry friends part of our extended family here and to save up for this dream to become a reality. When not focused on our dog business, we are proud parents to our own adopted pups and are always looking to take on more. In the near future we’ll also join Guiding Eyes and train dogs for the blind. We are true believers that pets are part of our families and look to take care of each clients’s pet as if they were our own. With us, you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands with a team that has extensive professional and medical experience working with dogs and, most importantly, is passionate about creating the perfect environment for humans and animals to interact. Let us share our love for animals with your family by becoming part of ours. A little about me personally: I’ve worked for the federal government nearly 15 years and take my responsibilities very seriously. I consider myself detail oriented but flexible. I will always do my best to go the extra mile and keep clients informed of everything through regular texts and photos. I’m also always looking to learn and welcome recommendations on how I can grow. Our home in Hyattsville has a fully fenced in backyard with a doggie door for easy access in and outside. We’re also surrounded by plenty of parks and green spaces and, on the weekends, love to explore new places with our pups and their stay-over friends! I have standard work hours during the week and great flexibility on the weekend. I’m on a hybrid telework schedule so the number of days I go into the office varies by week. I’m happy to try to rework my schedule to adapt to the needs of long term care or repeat clients. Our two pups are very easy going and have never had a problem with any other pets. They love the company and vice versa! Pets are able to roam the bottom floor of the house and fenced backyard freely. We also have crates of all sizes for those who prefer it.
“Gleidys is so nice. She has done a wonderful job with my Bella. I’ve received frequent updates and videos of Bella playing with her new friends. She has been attentive to her needs and it has been a great experience for us!”
About: I have been a dog lover and owner most of my life. I currently have 2 dogs, both are longhair dachshunds ages 8 and 5 months, who do get along with other dogs. I’ve grown up around horses so I am comfortable with even the biggest of dogs. Im always up for an adventure through the woods or taking a walk along the water somewhere. Would love to meet and care for the four legged member of your family and provide the same love and attention to them as my own dog. I am available for: dog walking, dog sitting (your home or mine), dog visits and much more. I take great pride in how I interact with animals, I feel they listen better than most people I know haha. I do work full time, 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Friday and live on the 3rd floor of a gated apartment complex in Fort Myers. I do work full time during the weekdays but I am available in the evenings and on weekends. I also live with my boyfriend and he is home usually before me during the week. I treat all animals with love and patience. Every dog is different and I take my time getting to know their personality and quirks so they feel safe around me.
About: I am a middle school math teacher for Lee County Schools! I work Monday-Friday, but have weekends free! I have been on Rover for about 4 year now! I really enjoy dog and cat sitting as a side job! I’m open to stay over night if needed. That’s why my house sitting rate is $40. My rate for not staying over night is $30. I do a lot of dog and cat sitting off of this app. So I have a lot more experience than what’s is on this app. Please feel free to ask me any questions you have about scheduling. I’ll be happy to discuss anything with you. It will be a great experience for all of us. Including our furry friends! I look forward to working with you and your pets! Thank you in advance! I am available after school and on weekends. I have a pretty steady and reliable schedule, so it’s easy to plan ahead and make adjustments. As I’m typing this, my cat is rubbing his face on my phone. I’d say my cat at home is pretty happy and spoiled. I think a really important part of pet care is having some sort of schedule, and being sure to put in time to give your pet attention.

“Rachel is amazing. She goes above and beyond for my little pup P!nk. She actually read my puppy rules and is very accommodating to my hectic schedule. Definitely rebooking her 3 times this month alone. Just Amazing.”
About: I had taken care of my grandparents animals growing up. Recently had a pet for 3years, but had to get rid of him due to having to move around during the pandemic. Looking to walk or house sit. Would help me cope being without my Chewy. I do have children, but I don't mind training an animal to feel more comfortable around children either. I'm really good with training dogs and have learned a lot through my years of pet sitting/walking. I have experience with all ages of dogs. My schedule is extremely open right now. I stay home with my three children most of the time and have a very flexible schedule. I have a very clean comfortable place for your animal to stay. If they like going to a dog park, I am open to tsking them. I can care for them in my home or your home. I'm very flexible. I currently do not own any animals. My profile says I do, but it won't let me change it. I am at home most of the time so my schedule is full of time to care for your pets! Any time and any day I will make any schedule. I live in an apartment with a back porch. My home is very welcoming to animals and is pet friendly. My neighborhood is dog friendly. I also know of a lot of great places to walk dogs or I can walk them around your home to follow their regular routine.
“Braeden did a wonderful job watching our two dogs, bird, and fish. Two of my pets needed medication twice a day, and she took great care of their needs. I felt very comfortable leaving them with her and would recommend her services. She also took good care of our home while we were away and provided companionship for our pets while staying in our home. Thank you Braeden!”
“Natalie was amazing! She kept me informed of how my dog, Millie, was doing throughout the trip and was even able to help Millie during her storm anxiety. When I arrived home from my trip Millie was so relaxed like she barely missed us, because she had such a good time with Natalie. Natalie also went above and beyond and left our house in such a nice state.”
About: I've taken care of pets most of my life. I am starting to gain expert/professional experience.

I look forward to serving your family! I have a fenced in yard. I can crate your pet. I will spoil your furr baby; as long as you're happy with doing so.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Suncoast Estates
Katherine was great! We did a meet and greet before the date. She was warm and friendly and clearly not bothered by our crazy dogs. She asked a lot of appropriate questions demonstrating she was very knowledgeable and professional. She communicated with us during our trip and sent some pics and videos of the boys too. She was able to keep a scared pittie calm during a storm and entertain a very high energy lab all day long! She even washed her blanket and towels, vacuumed and cleaned the dog slobber off the sliding glass doors before we got home! We’d choose Katherine again without hesitation.
Lydia was absolutely incredible, and I can’t recommend her enough! She stayed at our home while caring for our dog, Covey, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our instructions, kept our home spotless, and treated both our dog and our house with so much respect. We came home to a happy pup and a house that looked just as good as when we left. Knowing everything was in such good hands allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without worrying.

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 Suncoast Estates 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 Suncoast Estates 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 Suncoast Estates 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.

- 93% 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.
