“Sarah did such an amazing job taking care of our two dogs during our wedding weekend! She was so communicative, provided updates and always made us feel comfortable and confident our dogs were in great hands! We also had her bring our lab Remi to several key wedding events throughout the weekend and she was always on time and always communicated with us making sure everything was perfect! For what can be such a busy stressful wedding weekend, sarah took all the stress and worry out of it for us and Remi was the star of the wedding! Thanks again for everything and we will definitely book you again next time we are up in WP!”
About: My husband and I both work remotely from home so someone will be with your furry friend pretty much at all times. We’ve lived in Fraser since 2021 and love it here! Our little condo at Meadowridge has a huge unofficial “dog park meadow” where other friendly dog owners love to take their pets. I’m happy to take yours there for a play too! If your dog isn’t interested in other dogs though, I love walking around the neighborhood with them too! I do have one of my own. She is an older border collie mix of 12 years, always gets along with others. I work remotely from home so will be with your doggo at all times! We love taking ours out for walks around the neighborhood, so happy to have an extra one of yours! I live in a 2 bedroom condo. There is lots of room to roam around, nap, hang out. We back an unenclosed patio grass area where they can easily go out for a quick potty.
About: I’ve taken care of newborn puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I’ve had a soft spot for animals all my life! This platform seems like a perfect fit! I currently work part time doing videography and travel all over the country so I plan to care for dogs in each place I visit! We have a small farm but it’s not fenced in. Our dogs run and play all day long and then just hangout. Lots to do around here as me and the dogs love to go explore!
“Molly was wonderful with our 12-week-old puppy and 6yr old lab. She was kind, patient, and made us feel at ease leaving him overnight. We could tell they were well cared for and happy when we got back. Highly recommend!”
“AnnaLiese was great!!! We have never left our dog with a stranger before. Our dog loved her and she spent the day hiking with him and relaxing at her house while we went to a concert. I would definitely recommend AnnaLiese.”
About: Hi!! I have over 2 years of experience working as a kennel tech at a vet clinic. Through that experience, I was relied on to bathe, feed, walk, and give treatments/medications to our patients. I am very active and love going on runs/walks. I would love to talk to you about any services you might want! I work full time up at the YMCA summer day camp. I am mostly free on weekends but can also do evening or early morning check ins! I want to create an environment of trust and reassurance! I would love to accommodate you in whatever ways I can to make sure you feel confident in me as a sitter and walker.
About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.
“We left our two very active golden retrievers with Alec for the week. Along with plants to water and bird feeders to manage. He was professional, caring, and communicated well. My animals and home were tended as if it was his own ( or maybe his family home!) . I would never hesitate to have him come back and he certainly earned a 5 star rating. The house was clean on our return and although the dogs were excited to see us I could tell there was no stress evident from our absence.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was the age of 10. Dog breeds I have watched over Doberman Pinscher, German Shepard/Husky Mix, Labradoodles, English Labs, a mini-Aussiedoodle, 2 Dachshunds, a Maltese Shitzu mix, Greyhound mix, and a Novascotia Duck Toller. I grew up riding horses which provided me access being around dogs of all shapes and sizes, including Great Danes, Boxers, King Charles Spaniels, Corgis, Australian Shepards and standard poodles. When I lived with my cousin Pacey, her Labradoodle was practically my dog as we would go on hikes. I have completed 5 home stays in the last 5 years. As far west as Clear Creek County, and Littleton. Depending on the weather, I love taking the dogs out for walks during homestays. I am based out of Superior, CO, and would be willing travel for extended house stays as far as Aspen. More recently I have taken care of a two different cats on three separate occasions. I'm not entirely sure what their breeds were, but I think one was a beautiful grey british shorthair. I work in tech, so having strong wifi would be preferred as I work remote. Thus I am able to cater my schedule around that of the animals from which I am watching. I only take care of pets in their homes, as I am not able to host animals in my home due to allergies with my roommate.
“Lucy did a great job with my pets. They were well cared for & my outdoor cameras showed her outside with them, throwing the ball & also taking walks with them. She also was there when she said that she would be. I will certainly use Lucy again!”
“Patti is the best! This was her second time taking care of our boxers and we could not be more happy with the attention and love she provides to them. Extremely reliable and we would have her stay with them over and over again.”
“Jake was awesome! He took great care of my 2 dogs and my house. He was very patient with my dogs and letting them get used to him. He took them on many walks and kept me well updated with texts and photos. I would highly recommend him and will definitely use him again!”
“Trisha was great with our dogs. She is intuitive about what the dogs need and how to manage them. She was also good with communication and super flexible on working with us to accommodate logistics. Would definitely rebook.”
About: Hello I have taken care of cats my entire life and have a cat of my own. I would love to help take care of your fur baby. work full time but have a flexible and constantly changing schedule. I Can be available at many times of the week to watch your animal but I am looking to walk dogs after work around 5 pm or any time of the day on the weekends. I am a quiet person and would be very calm and quite in your home and around your pet. I always keep a door locked and make sure than any safety measure I can have in place for the animal I do. I care about the animals feeling safe and trusting their person walking them. I would constantly check on your animal and care for them.
“Rebecca was fantastic. She took great care of our dog and followed our detailed instructions attentively. She also sent regular updates which we really appreciated. Would love to have her watch our fur babies again!”
About: I have over 30 years experience raising, training, fostering, foster-failing and generally loving and caring for dogs. I work from home so will be with your pet most of the time and I love to go for long walks and runs with them. I am very active (walk, run, hike...) and have a large fenced in yard and a dog park nearby to keep your pup busy and well-exercised. Most of my clients are repeat customers as they find my services truly a "home away from home" for their fur-baby. Although I am new to Rover I have several references available outside of Rover - feel fee to request any you may like to see. I work from home so I am able to let dogs out every few hours in our fenced yard. Also walk at least an hour a day. Dogs in my home are treated as (and sometimes better 😉) than humans. Run of the house and the fenced yard. Lots of love and snuggles. Lots of walks/hikes/fetch/etc.
“Julie was a great dog-sitter for our 13-year old lab. She stayed at our house for 6 days while we were on vacation. When we returned home the house was cleaner than when we had left! She was very tidy and even cleaned the refrigerator! Thank you Julie!”

Sarah took exceptional care of Max and Minnie, especially when Minnie became sick during her stay. She was attentive, compassionate, and proactive, keeping me updated every step of the way and making sure Minnie received the care and attention she needed. Knowing Sarah was looking after them gave me tremendous peace of mind. I highly recommend Sarah!

FAQs for House Sitting - Winter Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Winter Park on Rover is $43.29 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 1,890 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Winter Park. 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 Winter Park 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 Winter Park 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 Winter Park 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 Winter Park. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
