“Arianna was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was amazing with our dog and even brought him treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and it was obvious he was happy and well cared for. On top of that, she even did a little light housekeeping, which was completely unexpected and absolutely not necessary, but so appreciated. It was such a kind gesture. We came home to a happy pup and a tidy house, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book Arianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“Haley took such great care of my two dogs while staying at my house!!! She always updated with pictures and comments throughout the days we were gone! My two dogs are total opposites in personality and she made sure to spend time with each dog in the way that they like to! Haley will always be our go-to gal!!”
“Always grateful when she watches my dogs. She is great at communicating and when I come home I know there aren’t going to be any unexpected surprises. My dogs are always very happy when we have this sitter. Cannot thank her enough.”
“Caylee did an awesome job taking care of our dog! She sent me updates, with pictures, everyday. When we arrived home my house was clean, tidy, and our dog was very happy. I would definitely recommend Caylee to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter!!”
About: Hi! I’m Alexis, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I know they aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and cuddly, or somewhere in between. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to care for them just as I would my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages to give you peace of mind. Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a helping hand! I'm a recent college graduate so I am home fulltime and have more than enough time available to love on your fur baby! There is nothing better than having furbaby love! I do not have a fenced in backyard but will be more than happy to take your furry baby on a walk, welcome them into my apartment and/or drop in and see how they are doing!
“Lauren was AMAZING! Gave our animals the TLC they needed when we were away which is rare! She went above and beyond spending time with them, keeping us in the loop!!!! I highly recommend her!”
“This is our first time using a petsitter. I was pretty nervous. I have to tell you having our 4 dogs in their own home being cared for is a gamechanger. Jensen was on time and my dogs.loved him. He was polite and the house was in good shape when we got home. Most of all my.dogs were calm.and happy when we got back which is the best.part and that tells.me that they liked him! Thank you for caring for them and taking care of them while we were away. I would highly recommend him for your dogs.”
“Kamylle was great with our dogs and cat! It was so nice knowing that they were being cared for by someone that obviously puts a lot of thought and attention into the comfort of the animals and concerns of the owner. She was very attentive to the nuances of our animals' behaviors and took great care of our crew, helping them adjust to our being away. I would highly recommend her and hope to use her again in the future!”
“Bernajah is amazing!!! I booked her to house sit for my 100lb pitbull mix and our experience was nothing short of amazing!!! My baby suffers w/ separation anxiety and Bernajah did an amazing job of ensuring Sky didn’t feel alone and was well taken care of. I received pics and updates throughout the stay to make me feel more at ease (which I appreciate). If you’re looking for a sitter that you can trust, book Bernajah! 10s across the board”
About: I have loved dogs all of my life and have always had one. I connect with any and every dog that I come across. When you are away I want you to have the peace of mind that someone that cares is taking care of your dog. Your dog is apart of your family, and I will treat it like that! I am able to walk all sizes of dogs, and have experience with many large breed dogs. I prefer to take care of bigger dogs, because that is what I love to do. I have experience with labs all the way up to Great Danes (my favorite)!! I currently own a Great Dane who gets along with any dog. I work full time during the week, but am home most weekends. When I am home, 100% of my times will be devoted to your pets. I have a fenced in yard that is .5 acre. Dogs will have plenty of room to run out energy. Dogs are allowed on furniture.
“Asher had a wonderful time with Destiny G and Tina her dog … he was well taken care of walked and fed. When we returned for pick up he was energetic and excited ready to show us the park she had been taking him too!! She also sent pics and video to ease our mind while we were away. 10 out of 10 will use again!!! Thank you”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong dedication to animals and their wellbeing. Even though I’m just beginning my professional pet‑sitting journey with Rover, my years of real, hands‑on experience caring for animals has given me a strong foundation. I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve volunteered with shelters, helped animals I’ve found in need, and cared for family and friends’ pets, which has added to my experience beyond my own animals. I have over 10 years of hands‑on experience as a pet owner. I’ve raised three dogs — Zoey (Springer Spaniel), Stella (Pitbull mix), and Merida (German Shepherd mix). I raised Zoey and Merida from puppyhood, provided senior care for Zoey until she passed at 15, and rescued Stella, who is now a healthy 12‑year‑old. Managing multiple dogs has taught me how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs at the same time. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m open to caring for any animal. I can follow medication routines, special feeding instructions, and I have a reliable vehicle for safe pet transport, if needed. My priority is always creating a safe, loving environment where your pet feels understood, respected, and genuinely cared for. Every animal deserves to feel protected and valued, and I’m committed to providing that level of care every time. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full time, but I still have plenty of dedicated time set aside for caring for your animals. On weekdays, I’m available from 3:30pm–10pm EST for drop‑in visits, walks, or check‑ins. On most weekends, I’m able to offer flexible house visits or overnight stays, depending on what your pet needs. I care for pets with the same level of attention, patience, and love that I give my own animals. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress‑free. I can manage medication schedules, specific feeding regimens, and any comfort routines your pet relies on. I’m attentive to details, from monitoring behavior and energy levels to making sure your pet feels safe.
“Rachel was extremely communicative!!! She kept me up to date every visit, lots of pictures and videos and she loved my boys the same way I would!! Very appreciative of her service and will use her for future visits!”
About: I’ve also grown up with animals since I was a baby! I’ve have horses, dogs, cats, turtles… YOU NAME IT, I’VE HAD IT😆 Neighbors, family, and friends have relied on me to feed, play, walk, and love on their furry friends! I am currently working part time/stay at home wife. So I have plenty of time to to love on and be with your fur babies😊 Unfortunately, I am not set up in the right environment to be able to watch your pet in my own home. Maybe in the future! :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Wacoochee Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wacoochee Valley on Rover is $33.3 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 325 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wacoochee Valley. 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 Wacoochee Valley 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 Wacoochee Valley 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 Wacoochee Valley 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wacoochee Valley. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% 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.
