“Terri was great with my babies. She sent me pictures often and kept me updated on how they were doing. When I returned home, my apartment was still clean and well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“I have a zoo of animals. Emma stayed with them all for almost a week. She was amazing. I got numerous updates and pictures throughout her stay. She treated them with love and it’s obvious she loves what she does. Thank you so much!!”
“Amazing experience with Emily, who dog sat our two fur babies overnight. Our mini dachshund is shy with most people but immediately ran up to Emily. This was our first time using an overnight dog sitter, and we had no worries or concerns, which is a huge relief. Dogs were calm and happy when we got home. Highly recommend Emily for your dog sitting needs!”
“Debra was fantastic! Our pups were so very happy and had a connection with her immediately! She was on time and very considerate by sending us li there’s snd updates! We would highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“David did a great job of caring for our dog while we were on vacation, he was attentive to Casper and frequently sent updates and pictures. I highly recommend him for his excellent services.”
“Cherie Kay took great care of my fur babies. I was especially anxious about Mira because she was badly abused as a puppy and has a lot of separation anxiety issues. She was well taken care of. My fur babies love Cherie Kay. Will definitely use Cherie Kay again.”
“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: All I’ve ever known is having compassion and love for animals! I grew up with all kinds of fur babies including reptiles, critters, cats and my three legged dog Tootie. They are family, so I get how much reassurance means knowing your pet can be checked on during chaotic or busy lives! I’m thankful to have the opportunity to help care for others furry friends! I currently have clients through other work I do and have stayed in house to be with their dog and I really enjoy it! I’m very happy to help! I’m currently working part time and would love nothing more than to fill the extra time with some smiles, excitement and exercise! I’m very active and like to stay busy, so I’m open to same day requests and available Monday-Friday during the mornings/day. Open to some evenings and weekends depending on my schedule at the time! I’m open to variety! Whether that’s cuddling the fur babies, being outside to enjoy the sun and fresh air or needing a quick walk and back to the crate!
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.”
“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.”
“We can't recommend Emme highly enough! From the moment we met her, we knew our furry family members were in incredible hands. She was incredibly attentive to all our dogs' individual needs, noticing each of their little quirks and preferences that make them unique. Her compassion truly shone through; it was clear she genuinely loves animals and treated each of our dogs as if they were her own. What truly set her apart was her outstanding communication. We received constant pictures and videos of all the pups, which gave us so much peace of mind and brightened our days while we were away. It was like we were right there with them! She was also very responsive to any questions we had. Honestly, Emme exceeded every expectation we had for a dog sitter, especially with a multi-dog household. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and we're so grateful to have found someone so reliable and dedicated. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“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.”
“Melissa was fantastic with my dogs. She made a few visits to make sure they knew her. She genuinely loves animals. It was such a comfort to know that my pups were getting such special care while we were away.”
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.

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.

The average cost of House Sitting in Suncoast Estates is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $67 per night.

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.
