“Shayla was absolutely fantastic! She was very open and friendly during our meet and greet; was able to tell my dog loved her immediately! I felt comfortable and informed the whole time I was away. Lots of pictures sent to me of my dog was so sweet to receive! I will definitely be booking with Shayla again! Thanks for taking the BEST care of Sasha 💕”
“Rebecca was a delight. She arrived on time and sent many photos of our dog, Kita, during her stay. She frequently updated us on how Kita was doing while we were away and gave Kita lots of play time outside and I inside. Great experience. 10/10 Would book again with her!”
“Kyra was awesome! I had a lot of changes leading up to the first time I have had to leave my dogs overnight since moving to Florida and she was sweet, caring, and accommodating. I will definitely be trusting her again with my dogs soon.”

“Tamara house sat my cat Pip. Tamara and Pip clearly bonded during the five days I was away. My home was left spotless, I received many photos, videos and notes about Pip from Tamara. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life ever since I was born. Big dogs to little dogs, friendly cats to unfriendly cats and even all kinda of small animals. My goal is to give your pet the best experience while you will be away. I am currently pregnant and only working about 15 hours a week so I have plenty of time to be there for your furry friend. Feeding and crating your furry friends will be no issue for me. I can play tug, fetch, and even just talking long walks around the neighborhood. I can also provide transportation to dog parks or dog beaches for good walks for your fur babies.
About: Your animal will receive plenty of affection, treats, and playtime. I have spent about five years babysitting and caring for animals. Because my neighbors foster cats frequently, I have handled many kittens and bottle feeding, and I have provided proper care for any animals found on the streets, ensuring they receive the necessary treatments and medications. I enjoy giving animals the attention they deserve, playing with them, and learning their needs; I believe an open mind is essential for understanding what they truly want. I recognize that every animal is different, so I apply my best effort to accommodate any animal’s needs. I can assure you that your furry companion will enjoy time with me. Your furry friend will have a blast with me. I’m currently a swim instructor at aquatics for you. I teach babies the basic survival skills of how to swim and float. I’m also attending HCC right now to pursue a degree in diagnostic sonographer. I just graduated from Riverview high school where I played volleyball for six years club and school season. I love going outdoors playing soccer and volleyball. I also enjoy listening to music and dancing. I believe life is way too short, so you have to soak in every moment that you can. I’ll make sure that every animal dog or cat is completely put in a safe and welcoming environment. I think every animal just wants affection and love and they definitely will receive that with me. Any expectations or rules that are given to me will be followed to the T. there are no excuses for any sort of disrespectful or bad behavior on my end. I’ll make sure to provide any service that you would like.
“Samantha was amazing. Being the 4th she noticed the fireworks had frightened them and put Scooter's thunder vest on and wrapped Scout in her hoodie to keep him calm. Scout tends to be unsure around new people but were like old friends by the time we arrived home.”
About: My family and I have fostered dogs for years. That experience has taught me how to handle everything from nervous rescues to higher energy pups with patience and love. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, snuggles, or a calm routine, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for. My job is hybrid so I’m in office 2 days a week but my work is flexible so there’s always room for adjustments. I care for pets in their own homes to help them stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Animals that love to cuddle or play go hand in hand with my personality.
“Bobby was great with our 3 dogs. He took time with all of them individually and sent us photos everytime he took them out. I’m always apprehensive when we leave the dogs with new sitters due to previous incidents but Bobby put my mind at ease. I will definitely reach out to him for future sitting needs.”
About: Humble greetings. My experice with animal care began when I was about 11 years old. I've been raised around and have cared for a plethora of dog breeds and sizes. I've also experienced, and cared for a range of different animals like reptiles, rodents, felines, fish and dogs. I enjoy many different pets/pet personalities and ensure that I can provide the care your paw-some pet requires ^u^. I'm currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule. Weekends, and Some holidays are great times for my availability. I'm willing to negotiate some weekdays depending on my schedule. Depending on the animal, I will provide the care that is requested of me by you(the owner). Since you know your pet better than I do, I would like to have a description of the pets personality, meal times, routines, healthcare needs and habits so I know how to accommodate them best( knowing whether they need space, like cuddles, have zoomies, need medicine throughout the day, need assistance walking etc.) If your pet is medicated I need to know HOW they are given their medication and when they are to recieve it. I also need to be notified of any disabilities they may have. This is all to ensure that my care is excellent for you and them.<3
“Aliyah was absolutely amazing! She stayed with my dog when I was out of town for a few days and provided several updates throughout each day. Her daily updates and photos helped me feel super comfortable being away from my pup because I knew she was being thoroughly attended to, cared for, and loved! I'm thankful for Aliyah's compassionate care, and I hope to book with her again if another opportunity comes up.”
“Irene got along great iwht my dog Luna and attended to every need. She did a good job keeping me informed while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a great person to take care of their dog.”
About: Hi fellow pet lovers! I’m Jackie, I grew up on a farm and now have a couple cats myself! I volunteer at the shelter weekly and have experience doing numerous things, whether it’s administering medications, removing ticks, or even the tricky eaters! I promise I am a kid on Christmas morning when it comes to caring for your pet and will do nothing more but give them the utmost care and attention. Thank you in advance for trusting me! I currently work from home and make my own hours so I can be available at any time, day or night for your needs. Let me know whatever works best for you! My fiance and I recently moved to our dream house in Cypress Lake, our fur babies are of course spoiled with love and enrichment. We have a cat door in almost every room, fenced in backyard, there is no place they can’t go. Your pet in my company would of course be treated the exact same. :)
“Nalisha was spectacular! 10 of 5 stars! I haven’t seen my puppy so happy in some time. Karma was so happy that when I walked in my house she looked almost disappointed it wasn’t Nalisha!!”
About: I own aquatics, reptiles, cats and dogs. I live in a large house just me and am a home body. I also have a large fenced in backyard and my neighborhood has lots trails and sidewalks great for dog walking. I work part time from home on my own time so my availability is pretty much open! I also have automatic litter boxes as well as traditional litter boxes and hardwood/tile floors in case of accidents. I also have a large metal dog crate if needed I have a large fenced in yard and I also have a dog that is sweet with others and spayed! If you are uncomfortable with another dog in the home I can also have my mom take care of my pup as she only lives down the road!
About: I've been caring for friends and family pets for 5 years now. I have experience with dogs and cats mainly and some small pets like hamsters, gerbils and fish. I really enjoy caring for them, and providing their fur parents with a piece of mind knowing they're safe and cared for properly. I've done overnight pet sitting, as well as feedings during the day when owners need the assistance. If you're looking for someone who is dedicated to making sure your pets are cared for properly, consider booking with me today! I'm currently in school working on a degree in sociology and have time to lend to pet owners who need daily or weekly care. So I'm able to take the time to attend to your fur babies in the way they need so that you have a piece of mind knowing they're safe and cared for properly. I have a home with a yard. Although it's not fenced, I do have a spacious home and can allow them outside, leashed so they can enjoy some sun and physical activity. I can also board dogs for pet owners who need that option as well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wimauma
Cira is wonderful. The boys love her. She’s very patient with their dachshund ways and she just loves on them. I loved getting all the updates from her. One of the boys was recovering from surgery and she took extra care with a few limitations he has I’m so glad we found Cira!
She has come to my home on two different occasions now to watch my dog. Mine were house sitting visits so she stayed here at my home with the dog, she walked him, played with him, she kept up on everything, she even brought my packages in along with updating me on when I maintenance crews here. I always text asking how he’s doing she sends me photos and lets me know his behavior. She was good to my baby and took care of my home. Trustworthy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Wimauma is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $102 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 3,866 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wimauma. 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 Wimauma 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 Wimauma 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 Wimauma 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.
