About: Trusted and loving pet caregiver with experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I grew up with English Bulldogs, a Rottweiler, a German Shepherd, and a Pug, so I’m confident handling all breeds and personalities. I work from home, allowing me to provide attentive dog walks and a safe, calm, and loving home for boarding—your dog will be treated like family ❤️ I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I don’t have children, so I can focus on the pets in my care. My condo has a backyard where dogs can enjoy some fresh air, and I love taking them on walks through the many nearby green spaces and walking paths. My home is quiet, comfortable, and peaceful, creating a calm environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and cozy environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. During walks, I always keep dogs on a leash and stay alert to our surroundings. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect your routine, keep your home tidy, and make sure your pet receives the same loving care they’re used to. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Shella is wonderful! She took great care of our home and fur babies while we were on vacation! She gave daily updates and plenty of park time for our dog. You can tell she really loves animals. We will definitely book with her again!”
About: I hold a Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Technology and am currently employed as a full-time vet tech. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I've always enjoyed caring for them. Additionally, I gained valuable experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I currently work as a full-time veterinary technician. Although I am currently employed I can still be extremely flexible if need be with enough time beforehand to plan! I have a fenced-in yard for my fur baby. Your pet will have plenty of places to roam and play. My personal dog roams around the house freely, but can be crated if needed.

First time using Rover and could not have made a better choice by finding Rosa. She was beyond wonderful, felt very comfortable having Rosa stay in our home and care for our dogs. Came home to a clean home and happy pups, they miss her already. Highly recommend and will be booking again for all future travels! A+++
Stephanie went absolutely above and beyond for my dog Nikita. She was incredibly responsive, filled my inbox with pictures, and was very clean when she was boarding my house. You could just tell she cared for Nikita and loves what she does. I have used other pet stores before and she blew everyone out of the water. I will definitely be using her again and I recommend anyone that really cares for their pet do the same.
Nydia responded promptly to my request for dog sitting. She came to meet us right away for a meet and greet . We discussed a schedule and and went over pancakes routines. She came every time she promised she would sent lots of pictures. She put my mind at ease knowing my pancakes was being taking care of well we were out of town. I will be scheduling her again for my next trip out of town.
She is really amazing girl Kiko loves her a lot because when I met him back after one month with the Francesca, he was really good. I feel it that he was treated real good with her. She stayed at my house for one month and when we came back, the house was immaculate clean thank you very much for everything.
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Crystal. While I was out for the evening, she went above and beyond to make sure George was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She took him on multiple walks, spent quality time playing with him, and kept me consistently updated on how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the moment I got home that George had a wonderful time—he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. He truly enjoyed her company and has already made a new friend. I would absolutely trust Crystal again and look forward to having her watch George in the future. Highly recommend!
Lexie was very kind and willing to help us on short notice during an unexpected family emergency, and I really appreciated her flexibility. There were a couple of times when I needed to provide reminders about their established routines, particularly the dogs’ potty schedule, so they didn’t have to go long periods between breaks. However, everything ultimately worked out. My senior dog also has additional medical needs, and she was consistent about making sure he received his medication every morning and night which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She also sent update photos which was appreciated. Overall, I’m grateful she was able to help us during a very challenging week. Thank you, Lexie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sunrise on Rover is $39.98 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,540 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunrise. 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 Sunrise 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 Sunrise 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 Sunrise 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
