“Sharon is like family after only one walk and a 4 day house sitting assignment. She is reliable, responsible, personable, flexible, and you get that from her as soon as you meet her. I would not leave my precious dog (in my home) with anyone I didn't trust, and I wasn't disappointed. You would be so lucky if she is available....my highest recommendation!”
“Cheryl has an amazing talent with animals. She stayed in our home for a full week, with our 10 yr old, stand off ish female with and attitude dog. With the several a day, updates and pictures, I felt this experience was outstanding! I highly recommend!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She was available on short notice on a holiday weekend to watch my cat and my current foster dog (who only has three legs!) Kaitlyn went out of her way to go over the tripod's care and gave me updates on her improving mobility. She took great care of our pets and our home and I would use her again!”
About: Hi, I'm Johnnie! I have a background in Human Services and Counseling, so attentiveness and genuine care come naturally to me. I've helped look after family and friends' pets and understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home. I specialize in house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I show up on time, send regular photo updates, and treat every pet like my own. Looking forward to meeting yours! 🐾 Your pet is my top priority throughout the day and even at night no matter what! If I eat your pet eats if I go out for a walk most certainly your pet will be walking with me! Your pet will always align into my schedule perfectly synced. In my home I only hope that I am provided a thorough explanation of what type of care and personality your pet has so that I may adjust myself accordingly. Having the supplies needed to care for your pet is also a huge relief and is appreciated. In your home (should you allow me to) caring for your pet in your home is right next to caring for your pet in the president's own house, I'll settle for nothing but giving my best for you and your pet.
About: Animals have always been attracted to me and felt comfortable with me. I have a few months experience in a vets office and over 1 year now as a private pet sitter. I work part time at a brewery, and have plenty of availability to watch pets. I can come to your house multiple times throughout the day and even stay over night if that’s what you prefer 😊 I usually like to set up a meet & greet and take notes on each pet to have as much information about them before my stay.
“Katie is a great sitter and took care of our dogs like they were her own. She sent daily pictures and videos that I could see how they were doing, and my house was in excellent condition when I returned home. She is quick to respond and went above and beyond what I hoped for in a sitter. I would highly recommend her, and I will be using her services again in the future. Thank you so much, Katie, I was able to enjoy my trip and knew my dogs were in good hands.”
“Kelli was wonderful with my dogs overnight, she sent updates and I could tell our babies were well loved while we were gone. We will be using Kelli for pet-sitting for our future vacations!”
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.
“Kristen was a delight to work with , she kept me up to date on the progress of my dogs while I was away. She paid attention to detail of instructions I left , she was prompt and I appreciate her loving care for Roscoe and Lula , if you need a sitter you can count on her , thank you Kristen and thank you Rover”
“Danielle took our reservations at the last minute! We had a facetime interview with her and were happy with how professional she was. We were sent a video and a picture of our babies while we were gone. I would recommend her to anyone and will be using her again!”
About: We love animals more than people! We will treat your fur baby like it was our own. We have a clean, tiled, lovely home in Heritage Pines in Hudson which is a 55 and over community. It is a quiet and safe environment. Your fur baby will be treated with love. I’m retired. I currently don’t have any pets my angel Bo is in Doggie heaven now. I am available last minute usually 7 days a week. I will treat your fur baby as my own. I care for your pet in my home. They will have my undivided attention for their entire stay with us. I provide a safe, quiet space for your loved one.
About: My family is grateful to still care for our 17 year old senior dog, Ace. We have had Ace since he was 8 months old. I have the energy to handle a puppy and the patience to handle a senior dog. I also have my own cat, Sophia. I truly understand the temperaments of both animals. I’ve been trusted to care for my own pets as well as my friends. I am available throughout the week as I am dedicated to Rover full time. I have my own vehicle so that makes traveling seamless. I am available from 10am-10pm most days. I understand that each pet will have their own specific way to be cared for. A pet is absolutely individualistic and there is no one way to care for everyone’s pet. Therefore, I will follow the directions as explained in order to keep the fur baby’s routine.
“Riley was great! We felt confident that our dog was being taken care of so well. The daily updates took away any of the anxiety we had. We will definitely be booking Riley again.”

Sharon went above and beyond for us and Cannoli! She made sure he was well taken care of and took care of him like he was her own. She communicated updates and pictures without us having to ask. He loved her instantly. We’ll be using Sharon for all of our puppy sitting needs.
5/5 Stars – Exceptional Pet Sitter!I highly recommend Breanna for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! She stayed at our house and was incredibly punctual, considerate, and professional from start to finish. What stood out most was her fantastic attitude. During our initial meeting, she asked thoughtful questions to ensure she understood our dog's routine and specific care needs. While we were away, her communication was excellent—she kept us updated on her whereabouts and how our dog was doing the entire time. She even stayed extra hours when our schedule changed, which gave us complete peace of mind.We will absolutely be hiring her again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our pup!
Bradley and his wife took amazing care of my dogs, Lola and Cookie, while I was away. They also stepped in last minute to watch my daughter’s elderly dog after her sitter unexpectedly canceled, which was such a huge help and truly appreciated. My dogs had never stayed with anyone outside of family before, and since our family all works remotely, they are very used to having people around all the time. Bradley and his wife were incredibly patient, accommodating, and caring with all of the dogs, which immediately put my mind at ease. They did an outstanding job caring for the girls, and I would absolutely trust Bradley to stay at my home and watch them again in the future. On top of that, my house was left in excellent condition, exactly the way I left it. I highly recommend Bradley to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring to watch their fur babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Weeki Wachee is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 1,495 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Weeki Wachee. 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 Weeki Wachee 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 Weeki Wachee 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Weeki Wachee 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
