About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Faith! She was incredibly attentive to detail, kept our home spotless, and took such thoughtful care of our pup. You can tell she truly loves animals. She is patient, engaging, and our dog looked happy and relaxed in every update. Her communication was excellent, we received regular photos and updates, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. She followed all instructions perfectly and made sure routines stayed consistent. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, detail-oriented, playful, and communicative house sitter or pet sitter, I can’t recommend Faith enough. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Aimee did a great job taking good care of our puppy! She is very kind and passionate. She played very well with our puppy, brought him to potty, prepared food and water for him. Our puppy had a lot of fun.”
“Kelly was an exceptional sitter for our senior dog Jynx. He was a very happy camper when we got home so we knew he was well taken care of during his time with Kelly. She took care of our home like it was her own and I would highly recommend Kelly to sit for any dog owner who is going to be away. We would definitely have her watch Jynx again in the future..”
“Declan did a fantastic job watching Gordon and Steven while I was away for the weekend. He stayed at my house, kept everything clean, followed all of the instructions, and took great care of the boys. When I got home, the house was in excellent shape, the dogs were happy and well cared for, and it was obvious they had gotten plenty of attention. Communication was easy throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely trust Declan to watch my dogs and home again, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible sitter.”
“Cassandra did a wonderful job with my dog Maisy. Right before leaving for vacation my dog spent 3 days in an emergency hospital for a toxin overdose. Cassandra made me feel so at ease leaving Maisy with her. She accommodated follow up visits with my normal vet and communicated well with me. I trust her completely with my dog and my home. Everything was in wonderful shape when I came back. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah is a top notch dog sitter. She will leave your house looking clean and send you daily updates and pics. She will allow you to enjoy your vacation while you are away from the dogs. She is a very kind person and I knew I could trust the house and dogs with her.”
“We’re so excited to have found Kat. She went above and beyond to make sure the fur babies were taken care of. We appreciate the consistent updates and never felt like we had to worry because she kept us in the loop! She’s 10/10 and will be rebooking again!”
About: I took care of my senior dog until he passed and I also have cared for many happy cats. I can do care from simple companionship and exercise to medication, special needs. I have a flexible schedule for this summer.I work part time at another job but that’s a very flexible schedule as well. I’m open to opportunities. I always try to maintain a safe and fun vibe during my time with pets. My priority at all times is making sure their needs are met.
“Ke'vin was very flexible with scheduling when we had to find someone quickly to leave town for a family emergency. With little notice, he came to our house for a first meeting and then started the next day for a overnight sitting service for five days. Our senior dog is always afraid of new people but Ke'vin sent videos of her and it's clear she warmed up quickly to him and really liked him. He gave her meds with no issue. I'm glad we found Ke'vin on Rover!”
“Becca was wonderful! She was able to watch Tazer on short notice over a holiday weekend. She sent updates and photos letting me know how he was doing. I have never had someone new watch him before and she said he adjusted well. It was such a relief knowing I could get away and he was in great hands. I will definitely be using her to sit again.”
“Ashlee was wonderful with my senior pup who needed a LOT of extra care. She ensured that I, the worried mom, got tons of photos and updates throughout my time away. She really put me at ease and handled the many needs of my older sick pup with great care, kindness, and professionalism. She stayed at my home with my pup and left the house in great shape. We will certainly be asking her to watch our dog again in the future.”
“I trust Hope with housesitting my pets. She cared for my elderly dog before she passed and now cares for both my cats when we travel. I highly recommend booking with her. Thanks Hope for being a great pet sitter and earning the trust of my pets.”
“Let me start by saying, we have never left Jeff with anyone but family. But because of unforeseen circumstances, Lindsey became his first caregiver, and I cannot speak highly enough about her and the experience we had with Rover. Jeff is a spunky, 14-year-old, spoiled, fussy, Yorkshire Terrier. Jeff was born in our home; we had both his mother and Father. He has never been alone (without us) since their passing. We planned a family vacation to Hawaii over a year ago and at the last minute our plans fell through with my Neice, and she could not watch him. We were ready to cancel. I had heard of ROVER and decided to look into their services. After going through a lot of candidates to choose from, I found Lindsey. She set up a meet and greet and we all met in our home. Lindsey and Jeff instantly became friends, and I started to feel a little better. We all even took a walk in the neighborhood with Jeff so I could see how he would react to her. Two days before we were set to leave, Lindsey reached out to see how we were doing and reassured us that Jeff would be in good hands. She communicated through the entire process and whole time we were away. She was prompt and so friendly and really knew how to make Jeff feel at ease. Throughout the vacation (11 days), she sent updates, pictures and let us know that he was behaving, eating, drinking, and successful on all his walks. She took pictures and sent them to us EVERY DAY. I can't tell you how relived we were that Jeff was in her care. We had a wonderful trip to Hawaii because we honestly felt Jeff was in the best hands and in his own home with all his familiar surroundings. We can now look forward to more family vacations with our Grandchildren knowing that Lindsey is here to take care of Jeff. Thank you so much, Lindsey... you helped put our mind at ease and took care of our little pup better than we could have imagined. If you are reading this review, and have anxiety about leaving your pup, I urge you to contact Lindsey so she can show you how truly amazing she is! Aloha!”
“We couldn’t recommend Carly more highly! We had to travel unexpectedly and had just gotten a brand new puppy so were in a little bit of a bind. Carly stepped in without hesitation and took on watching not just the puppy but 2 other dogs. She took such good care of them and sent us lots of pictures throughout the weekend. Knowing they were so well cared for was so incredibly helpful and gave us the best peace of mind. You should absolutely book her for all your dog sitting needs!”
“Noemi was an absolute rockstar!!! Not only did she accept our last minute booking, she continued the house sit when our a/c went out the morning of our trip! She still agreed to stay overnight, even when I gave her the option not to, and made sure our pets were safe in the heat, not to mention letting in the a/c guy for repairs. She was communicative, and we came back to very happy pets! I highly recommend Noemi!”
“Michelle cared for our two dogs at our home for the last 5 days/nights. We came home to happy dogs and a well cared for home. During our initial meet and greet, we immediately felt that we can trust Michelle with our dogs and our home and we were right. Michelle is a gem!!”
“I couldn’t be more grateful for the care Tanya provided our two dogs! They are two rescues who can be a bit challenging at times, but she was so patient, understanding, and handled them with so much love. It gave me a real peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Highly recommend!”

Samantha was incredible! She was communicative throughout the visit sending numerous pictures and videos while also asking questions to help make sure the pups were as comfortable as possible. Lady - who doesn't warm up to anyone easily - pretty quickly found her to be a safe person, and it was clear that all three dogs were spending time with her without feeling any notable disruption to their usual routine. We would absolutely recommend her care!
Mateo did a great job with Harley during our week long absence. He sent daily updates and photos and was a good communicator. He was flexible and willing to change plans when necessary. He also left the house very clean. I would definitely work with Mateo again.
We were very happy with Brianna's care of our pups and our home. She is mature and calmly handled a power outage during a storm for us, including dealing with service people who came to the house to address power outage issues. We have older pups and they were very happy with her care. We would not hesitate to have her help again in the future. Strongly recommend.
Andrew (Rusty) exceeded all my expectations when it came to boarding my two dogs. First of all, this was the first time they were boarded. They are 7 yrs. Old so I was a little nervous and wondering how my dogs would react. Rusty was amazing with them and they came back relaxed and I knew they were well taken care of. Rusty has a great fenced in area and my dogs love being outside. I highly recommend Rusty and so does Stella and Beau!

FAQs for House Sitting - Venetian Village
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Venetian Village on Rover is $59.94 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,791 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Venetian Village. 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 Venetian Village 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 Venetian Village 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 Venetian Village 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.
