“My dogs loved Jenelle and so did we! We could tell from the interactions that they were in very capable and loving hands. Throughout the stay, Jenelle sent numerous photos (and texts) of her playing,exercising and cuddling with both Ivy and Harley We left detailed instructions for the care of our house and pets which she followed to our greatest satisfaction. Our house was spotless when we returned and both dogs were happy and content We have finally met a very responsible and affectionate young lady that we can entrust with the care of our home and pets to. We plan on hiring Jenelle in the future and highly recommend her services. When it comes to trusting the care of both home and pets to someone and having peace of mind in doing so, we have been truly blessed with Jenelle. 🙂”
“We loved Emma! Our trip was cut short when my daughter came down with an ear infection, but she took great care of Rusty, fed the fish, and even surprised my kiddo with a little something when we got home ? Emma is so sweet and we’ll definitely reach out to her again in the future!”
“Shyann is a god-send and the way she is with our pets is wonderful! She communicates great and even my husband noted that "wow, she really follows all the instructions to a tee" We love her and recommend her without any reservation! She stays in our home and I trust her completely!!!”
“Haley was so great with my dog! She is attentive communicated well the entire time. It was nice knowing my girl was well cared for and loved while I was away. Will definitely book again!”
“I highly recommend Kashmir! She took great care of our 3 kitties. She even took time to allow one of my cats to drink from the sink, since he's so picky about the water bowls. She was also great about keeping in touch and giving updates/pictures, which gave us a great peace of mind. I've already booked her for our next trip out of town!”
“Sabrina saved the day for us when the rover we had scheduled cancelled after we were already on the road for our trip. She was already booked but found a solution for us and had her mom help care for our pups. They both did an amazing job and put us at ease! I work from home so my dogs are spoiled with attention and they assured us they would do the same for them! Will definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I have been walking dogs for 8 years at our local animal shelter and have gone through extensive training with them and continue to do so. To save I love all dogs is an understatement I work from home with a flexible schedule so i can help out pretty much however you need me to , whether its walks , check ins, and overnights I have a fenced in yard if you dont have one and your pup can come play, I also have a pool if your doggo likes to swim.
“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!”
“Sereniti was amazing taking care of my dog during a 3 night stay, and I could tell she was treated like family. I got updates and pictures that showed Diamond happy, relaxed, and having fun. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time I travel! Thanks again.”
About: I grew up with three dogs in my home along with pet sitting neighbors dogs growing up. I’ve dealt with a large range of breeds and sizes of dogs. I am a huge dog lover with tons of energy, love and time to give! I recently got laid off so I am doing this full-time and appreciate any and all of your business! I live in an apartment, which is almost 900 ft.² by myself! I live in a great community for walks and options of dog parks for socializing if said parents approve!
“We couldn’t be happier with the phenomenal care Barry provided for our dogs while we were away visiting family over Thanksgiving. He went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well-loved the entire time. In fact, our dogs are still wandering around looking for him—they absolutely adored him! Barry was reliable, communicative, and treated our pets like they were his own. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend Barry to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with him again! 🐾💛”
About: I've had both dogs and cats as pets my whole life and understand how important they are in our lives. Experience volunteering for the Animal Welfare League and other organizations as a dog walker and in cat care. Can handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Experienced in pet sitting overnight if needed and willing to go the extra mile (literally) if you have a high energy dog or one trying to lose weight. Very attuned to an pet's needs and great attention to detail. Great at building a rapport with even shy cats. Very flexible schedule especially with some notice in advance. I work from home and essentially set my own hours, so if anything comes up I can be there when you need me. I will ask for your preference as far as desired length of walk (or run), care/feeding instructions and other things to look out for regarding your pet. I absolutely love animals, so I will make sure they are as comfortable as possible with me and of course will show them lots of love and playtime if they're up for it. Let me know any special requests that will make your pets happy!
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.
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. From dogs and cats to other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, I’ve spent my whole life making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Being around animals brings me joy, and I take pride in treating each one as if they were my own. My passion for animals isn’t just a hobby it’s something I want to continue doing for years to come, giving every pet the love, attention, and care they need. I don’t have a job so I think this will be a great starter job to start with since I love animals and been around them my whole life I have a dog she is two years old and she loves to run and play outside and inside and she loves people. She sleeps in her bed and in mine. She loves her alone time but also wants attention and she always gets it.
“Lia did a great job with our three big dogs. She was timely on the day we had the meet and greet. My dogs loved her. She was also right on time the day we left for our trip. She took great care of our pets and sent us lots of pics and updates. We had some major travel delays on our return date. Lia was completely understanding about our very late return.”
“It’s very clear to us that Paige is a BIG animal lover! She treated our sweet girl with great care while we were traveling, and checked in with us each day with photos of her adventures. We’ve already rebooked Paige for dog sitting.”
“Velvet was wonderful! Our Bear is an old guy with special needs and medications and Velvet did a great job handling all that he needed. She kept us in the loop on all meals, walks and medications and even sent us photos along the way so we could see how happy he was (maybe too happy without us! LOL). We arrived home to a happy pup and our home safe and sound. We will definitely use Velvet again in the future :)”
About: I’ve taken great care of animals my whole life from as small as hamsters to as big as horses! I love dog sitting for friends and family! I’m a full time server/bartender, however on the days I have off I love to stay busy so with my free time I would love to hang out with some furry friends:) I have a safe neighborhood to walk your furry friends as well as I love going to the dog parks and I have a ton of friends with dogs who would love to meet new friends.
About: I’ve had experience with animals since I was little and I’ve always enjoyed being around them. My schedule is very flexible since I have a part time job. I have a part time job currently so I have a a lot of free time for your dogs. When I do work it’s usually after 2 or 3 pm. I will not be offering in home care for your dogs since I do have 5 dogs at home but I’m use to going on walks and being around dogs.

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.
Lindsey did an amazing job caring for Rae and Austin over the holiday weekend. The pets were incredibly well cared for, the house was spotless when we returned, and she shared plenty of photos and updates throughout the stay which gave us great peace of mind. Coming home to such happy pets made all the difference. We truly appreciated her care, communication, and attention to detail, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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!

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 .

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.
