“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 💕”
“Veronica was a great dog/house sitter. She took care of our elderly dog who needed daily medicines and multiple walks during the day as well as cooking him special meals and bathing him. She texted and sent photos daily. We returned home to a very happy dog. He actually is still looking for her, which is unusual for him. We highly recommend her.”
“Victoria was fantastic to work with. We had a last minute sitter cancel and she accepted our last minute request. Then we had a delayed flight and she stayed an extra night. We received daily updates on our pooch and had no worries about him while we were gone. Highly recommend!”
“Kristin is great at keeping in touch and sending pics. Our girls did great and enjoyed their time with Kristin. Kristin was able to stay in our home so for dogs that need their peeps around, Kristin is a great sitter.”
“Glen was an excellent dog/house sitter! He kept us updated with messages and photos. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We are definitely using him again!”
“Very accommodating! Asks all the right questions to really care for your babies. She was very sweet, patient and loving to my boy who has extreme anxiety with new people but he warmed right up. Communication was amazing and I would definitely recommend. Will rebook!”
“Lori was very professional and the communication was excellent. She was wonderful with our 3 year old German Shepherd. We were very happy with Lori and will definitely use her again.”
“Rebecca was wonderful with our anxious old pup and took the time to come meet him beforehand and learn about him. Hoping she’s available to book for our other upcoming travel dates!”

“Lindsay was delightful. My dogs are not well trained. I admit it. Not proud but love them. She gave me updates daily with pictures. She left the house untouched as if she didn't stay, except for a load of sheets in the wash. The dogs were happy I was happy and anxiety free. Thanks Lindsay!!!!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Nalisha! I’ve been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet with the same love and respect I would my own. I’m a responsible and experienced caregiver, and I’ve even cared for a pregnant dog, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and gentle care. As a full-time college student, I’m available most days except Sundays. My availability is always updated on my calendar, and if anything changes, I will communicate in advance so you have time to find a replacement. If a booking is made on an unavailable day but a spot opens up, I’ll be happy to take it. When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll ensure they’ve gone to the bathroom, received plenty of attention, and are in a good mood. If any accidents occur, I will notify you and clean them up to prevent further issues that could be unsafe for your pet or household.
“Kiana looked after my pup while I was away on a cruise, and she went above and beyond—even taking him to the vet when needed. She’s truly amazing, caring, and trustworthy. Highly recommend her for anyone who wants total peace of mind and a dog sitter who treats pets like family.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for my whole life I grew up surrounded by animals and I love helping others I’ve dog sat multiple times and more I dog sit the more clarity I get on what I want to do with my life and if that involves pet care. I am currently unemployed and I want to fill my week up with something I love doing, I prefer overnight jobs because there is a current struggle with transportation in my household. I am very responsible and when in a clients home I have lots of respect and honor for their belongings and space. I am a overall clean and tidy person and always make sure to do what I’ve been asked to do to the best of my abilities and then some.
About: Over the past four years, I’ve cared for dozens of dogs and cats for friends and family—walking, feeding, playing, and giving them love while their people were away. What started as doing favors turned into something I genuinely enjoy and feel confident doing, so I thought… why not finally offer it professionally? While I’ve never had a pet of my own (yet!), I treat every animal I care for like they’re family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re gone. I’m attentive, gentle, and great at reading an animal’s vibe—whether they want playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm nearby. I’d love to meet your furry companion and be someone you can count on. Let’s chat about how I can help! I currently work part-time most of my work days are during the weekend so throughout the week I am home all day pretty much every day! I am to make sure I learn the routines of each of my clients and ensure that the pets feel like they are at home!
About: I've had animals my whole life and love taking care of them. Friends and family often reach out for boarding, pet sitting and daycare. My genuine care for animals should give you guilt free feelings when leaving your babies in my care. I currently work from home which makes caring for your pet easier if you choose to bring them here. If not, my hours are 8-5 weekdays but free all day on the weekends. I currently have a pet free home and I also have a fenced yard. Happy to travel and stay at your home if your animal is more comfortable there.
“Sandra has a beautiful soul. She took such good care of my babies. She sent me pictures of them made into these lovely collages that I know took time and care to create. I rebooked her for my next trip already!”
“Drue was terrific! She arrived when scheduled, spoiled our boys with treats and outside time, and sent pictures with her report card for the boys. We will surely be using her services again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wimauma
Lindsay was awesome. I was stressed because my dog suffers from separation anxiety & this was the first time I was leaving him in a year. Lindsay sent me photos & texts which made me feel 1000% better. I highly recommend Lindsay for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Lindsay for your professionalism & taking great care of my Tillman & your communications with me while I was out of state visiting family. It made a world of difference. Thank you.
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Wimauma
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wimauma on Rover is $55.5 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 3,813 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 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.
