“Heather was fantastic with my pups and my home. She took care of my fur pups especially my senior pup with patience and understanding. I was able to relax knowing they were safe and cared for. I will use Heather again in the future and highly recommend her for sitting.”

About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities and understand the importance of keeping them happy, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply giving them extra attention, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available on weekends and can often accommodate weekday visits as well. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to work with your pet care needs! I provide pet sitting in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I know pets feel their best when they’re surrounded by the sights, smells, and routines they know, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away.

About: Im very personable. I like to be outdoors and get exercise. I work really hard to keep things neat and tidy. I am very observant if i notice something off or wrong with your pet. I dont mind getting on the ground and interacting with your dog. I have owned and been around dogs since I was very young, and have worked with many different sizes and breeds. I am willing to give my undivided attention, and provide excellent service. I strive to maintain a high level of professionalism, yet still willing to have fun. I have a pretty open schedule that allows me to be flexible. Available any day of the week or weekends. Also available for holidays and parties. I look forward to working with you. I have open availability in the early mornings and evenings. i usually ask for at least a days notice. I am very dependable as well. I have a lot of open field near my unit. I make sure they are well loved, cared for and groomed and fed. I will provide for the needs required and requested.

About: About Me 🐾 Animals are my thing—always have been, always will be. I’ve worked with everything from birds and dogs to snakes, goats, and more, so nothing really surprises me at this point. From bottle-fed babies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC (or to be carried around like royalty), I’ve got the patience, experience, and heart for it all. I’m the person who will sit with your pet, talk to them like they’re human, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for neighbors and friends for years—whether it’s a high-energy puppy or an older pet who just needs a calm, gentle presence. Reliable, attentive, and maybe a little extra when it comes to care—because your pet deserves nothing less. 💁‍♀️🐾 Pet care is part of my daily routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins are naturally built into my schedule to ensure consistent, loving care every day. I care for pets in their home by following their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications, while providing lots of attention, comfort, and a safe, stress-free environment.

About: Compassionate, dependable pet care tailored to every animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I provide attentive companionship, thoughtful updates, and respectful care for cats, dogs, and other beloved pets, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for overnight pet and house sitting throughout Santa Rosa Beach and along 30A. I’m also willing to travel for the right booking. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I organize my schedule around the needs of the pets and households I care for. I’m a published author currently working on my next book, so I value quiet time, peaceful surroundings, and the companionship of fur companions. For overnight bookings, I stay in the client’s home through the night and follow the care plan we agree upon. In addition to writing and pet sitting, I am a Sound Alchemist, Sound Practitioner, Sound Journey Facilitator, Vibrational Resonance Guide, and Sonic Meditation Facilitator. Through sound, vibration, mindfulness, and immersive listening experiences, I create peaceful, grounding environments while avoiding clinical or medical claims. These practices complement my love of quiet time and my appreciation for calm, attentive companionship. I am also capable of watering plants, collecting mail, and bringing in delivered packages while you are away. I’m happy to help maintain a lived-in appearance and care for these household details according to your instructions. I leave pets alone only according to each pet parent’s guidelines, since every pet and household has different needs and routines. Before accepting a booking, we’ll discuss your expectations, your pet’s routine, exercise needs, daytime care, medication requirements, and the amount of time your pets can comfortably be left alone. Clear communication in advance helps ensure that my availability is a good fit. As a quiet, non-smoker who deeply respects your privacy and property, I treat your home with the utmost care and cleanliness. I am fully comfortable managing home security systems and maintaining your daily household routines while you are away. I provide overnight care in the client’s home so pets can remain in familiar surroundings and follow their usual routines. I treat each home, its belongings, plants, mail, packages, and the family’s privacy with care and respect. I am attentive to instructions and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort, and needs. My experience with cats, horses, German Shepherds, Alaskan Malamutes, Siberian Huskies, and farm animals has taught me that every animal has a unique personality and requires patience, consistency, and individualized care. I also cared for my beloved cat, Sterling, for more than 22 years. These experiences have strengthened my sense of responsibility and helped me recognize subtle changes in an animal’s behavior or well-being. I welcome a meet-and-greet before each booking so you and your pet can get to know me, review instructions, and feel confident about the care plan. I provide regular photos and updates while you are away so you can stay connected and reassured. Staying overnight also provides companionship for your pets and helps your home appear occupied.

About: Hi there! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats with all personalities, and even the occasional critters. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I pride myself on being reliable, responsive, and genuinely passionate about keeping your furry friend happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers purr—your pet is in good hands! :) I work part-time, and I’m a college student. My class schedule is 3pm-7pm Monday through Thursday, then will occasionally work on the weekends (not much) which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for your dog. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily work around your pet’s routine. My lighter schedule allows me to be attentive, present, and reliable, making sure your pup gets the love, play, and care they deserve while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I follow their usual routines closely—mealtimes, walks, play, and any special care instructions—so they feel secure and cared for. In my home, pets have cozy spots to relax, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want for my own, making sure their pet feels comforted by familiar surroundings. I always aim to give each pet the same love and care I’d give my own.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities — from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime, to senior pets who deserve extra patience and gentle care. I make it a priority to get to know each animal’s unique routine and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart I treat every pet as if they were my own family. Beyond basic walks and feeding, I focus on keeping pets happy, stimulated, and calm — whether that’s through long walks, games of fetch, or simply giving them the quiet affection they crave. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always communicative, so you’ll have peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for like a priority. I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time to give attention to the animals!! I can do feedings and walks morning and night no issues there. I have a fenced in yard, very accessible for letting animals out to go potty and my household only consists of me and my partner so there won’t be many people coming in and out of the home so there’s more consistency for the animals.

About: It's great to have a dog around!! From my first dog Cookie to boarding my Uncle's dog Fearless..well you just fall in love. Dogs force me to be the outdoor person I was meant to be..how can I say no to a walk?? I am super disciplined about feeding, watering, and any special needs. Can't wait to meet your furry friend... I am around most days and can be flexible depending on owners needs. I don''t require a lot of notice for walks, sitting, and or boarding. My home is dog ready..I have a fenced yard and a dog park close to me. Flexible accomodations..can have dogs run free in home..can crate if necessary. Fenced yard complete with turf grass. I live on a dead end street in a semi private neighborhood.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sunnyside

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Sunnyside is $112 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $97 and $128 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 257 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunnyside. 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 Sunnyside 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 Sunnyside 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 Sunnyside 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 Sunnyside. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
