“Cheryl was amazing! I have two dogs, a nine year old and a four month old. My older girl takes time getting used to people and I needed Cheryl all day on short notice. She came to the house for three days leading up to my day trip to just sit with her and get her familiar with Cheryl. Our puppy of course loved her instantly! Cheryl went above and beyond including even grabbing a package that was delivered and bringing our trash cans up to the garage from the street which was completely unexpected and above and beyond. We will be using Cheryl from here on out!”
“Stefanie was incredible! She sent me pictures of everything from the food to ensure she gave the right amounts, to the walks she took the dogs on to them having fun at the house together. It was so comforting to know she was there with my pups exactly as she said she would be! She truly loved spending time with them and i could tell . I have a very shy pup and she was able to get him out of his shell and on a walk with him which many people can’t do! I will 100% be calling Stefanie again! I hope she never leaves! 😍”
“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”
“As always with Samantha, Blue was very relaxed and content when we returned. He had his appetite while she was with him, and that doesn't usually happen. Our home was neat and organized. Samantha really has "the touch" with animals.”
“Estefania did a great job! Abby was happy as a clam when I got home and Estefania sent pictures and videos! Abby can be a pill and Estefania had no problems with her. She's wonderful.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and I’ve always been very hands-on with the pet care at home. I am a trusted pet babysitter amongst my family. I value the pet’s mental health and happiness especially while their owner is away. I am a part-time college student, and I work at a catering company with a highly flexible schedule, so I can work around your needs. I try to encourage a stress free environment by sticking to your pet’s normal routine while you’re away, making sure that they’re happy and healthy, as they would be under your own care.
“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: I have always adored animals. I care for them like they are people and do my absolute best to make sure they are happy, healthly, and 100% comfortable. That means going the extra mile in care. For example taking an extra 20 minutes to let them run around play before being left alone until I return or the owner makes it home. I have two pets, a two year old english cocker spaniel and a seven your old cat. So I am not afraid to clean up any messes. I have watched family friends, friends, and been hired by others in my community to care for their pets. I will treat your pet like family, because they are apart of your family. I will make any accommodations you need for your pet, just let me know what you need! I currently work full time 8:30-5pm with a one hour lunch break, which means during the week days I am available after 5pm. But on weekends I am available around the clock. To ensure your pets safety I only will do things that you allow and/or feel comfortable with. If we go outside in an unfenced location, your pet will remain on his or her leash. I typically try to take pets to the park, but I always about this ask this before doing so.
“Carter took great care of my boys. They aren’t the easiest (one doesn’t like strangers or other dogs and the other has separation anxiety and both are big and needy) but from the moment he met them, they were buddies. He left the house in clean and kept me informed on how they were doing while I was away. Will definitely book with him again and we are so thankful we found him.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Weeki Wachee
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 November 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 November 2026, there are 1,493 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.
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 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 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.
