“Arianna had amazing communication both before and during her stay with Maverick. She left our house better than she found it and our dog had a blast. We saw many pictures of him playing, eating, relaxing, etc. And came home to the cutest report card. Will definitely use Arianna again and would recommend her a million times if I could!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, with skills in walking, feeding, playtime, and providing a safe, loving environment. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 6 PM. I have mornings , evenings and weekends available, giving me plenty of flexibility to provide pets with the attention, care, exercise, and companionship they need. I’m dependable, responsible, and happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved by following their usual routine. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and a clean environment while respecting the owner’s care instructions.
“Brian was awesome! I was surprised at how well Rocky and Chuy did with him. He did an excellent job of sending pictures and updates and left the house immaculate! I would highly, highly recommend him.”
“Larrielle was absolutely wonderful with Reggie and Kona! Our boys have their quirks — Reggie with his independence and his medicine routine, Kona with his big personality in a little body — and she handled everything without skipping a beat. Multiple days of overnight stays - she is definitely 5 STARS!!! We came home to two happy, well-loved dogs and a house just as we left it -- if not cleaner. We felt completely at ease the whole trip knowing they were in such good hands with constant photo updates. We'd have her back in a heartbeat!”
“Alycia is AMAZING with our Georgia girl 🐶! She is one of the few I can trust with our fur baby. Alycia is reliable, caring, and keeps me updated with photos and messages while I am away. Georgia loves her dates with Alycia! She is happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for the entire time. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Georgia is in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Alycia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
About: Growing up, my family nicknamed me "Elly Mae" because I’ve always had a love for animals—From dogs and cats, to rats, rabbits and guinea pigs I’ve cared for just about every kind of creature you can imagine (domestic or slightly non)! As a mature, responsible caregiver, I come with a lifetime of hands-on experience, I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve provided daily care, socialization, and even medical support—including administering oral and topical medications, giving insulin shots, and helping special-needs pets stay comfortable and happy. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or legs galore, they’ll be in loving, capable hands with me. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I’m flexible and strive to work with your pet’s routine to ensure they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I care for most pets in the comfort of their own homes, where they feel safest and most secure. I always respect each pet’s routine and space, and I take the time to build trust—especially with shy or anxious animals. I'm gentle, patient, and attentive to their individual needs, whether it's medication, playtime, or just quiet companionship. For small, caged pets or very small dogs, I may be able to offer care in my home under special circumstances, with a clean, safe, and cozy environment ready to welcome them.

You’ll receive regular photo and text updates after every visit or stay so you can enjoy complete peace of mind knowing your pet and home are in responsible, attentive hands.
About: I am going to school to study veterinary medicine and I work at an animal hospital and I’ve been around animals and all the different situations they have. When I wake up I feed my dogs and let them out before I leave for work or school and spend time with them outside when I get home. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs provided by the owner. I also keep the environment clean and safe, monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health, and provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pets are well cared for
“Neida took wonderful care of Lucy! She was kind, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that Lucy was well cared for and received lots of attention and affection. I truly appreciated Neida’s professionalism, communication, and the love she showed my pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Neida! 🐾💕”
“David was an excellent dog sitter for our two dogs. When he sent photos they looked so relaxed which is such a plus when you are leaving your dogs with someone. Thank you again for taking care of them!”
“Ashley is truly amazing with Ares! She not only arrives on time, but immediately jumps into caring for him — taking him on multiple walks, heading to the dog park first in the morning, play time, and keeps up with his scheduled routine. She also sends me multiple videos and photos throughout the day with important updates. We absolutely love having her watch our puppy!🩵”
“Vonna took care of my Minnie with love and lots of attention! She kept me updated daily on how things were going and sent photos every day of my baby 🥰 I will definitely use her again.”
About: I have 5 years experience in the animal field professionally. I have learned animal behavior and signs, I have learned patience and understanding, how to build a bond, and so much more. I am currently working 4 days a week. I have three days a week I can fit your pet care needs into schedule. I can also possibly schedule times around my job the other 4 days as I work a swing shift. I have two separate fences on my property and a secured dog room that leads to the year fencing area with AC, dog bed, access in and out, fan, access to water at all times inside with an automatic water bowl outside. I have a friendly, Neutered male Golden Retriever to keep them company if preferred, or there is plenty of space to keep them separate. None smoking and no small children. For your home visits, I would respect your space and rules as well as accommodate all your needs and request a n your home.
“Brooke was really great with my two dogs, and it was a relief to be able to be away from home and the pups and not worry. She sent lots of pictures, took great care of everything, and I appreciate how flexible she was with changing circumstances. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, rabbits and more since I was a baby. I have raised my 11 year old cat since she was a week old, and my 6 year old dog since he was 6 months. I know how to take care of very young up to senior animals and I can help support training. I work the week M-F, so I am able to take on the weekends (F-M) so you can take your much needed vacation or detox! I have a very flexible schedule where I am able to take off for longer pet care situations. I am very organized: I use planners, reminders, alarms and more to keep myself up to date and on time. I run on a good schedule and efficient work, and it only gets better when I’m working to take care of an animal. I can help support training, young and older animals and more.
“I can’t recommend Tyler enough! He took such wonderful care of my pups while I was away. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in caring and capable hands. He went above and beyond—sending daily updates, photos, and making sure all of my pets' routines were followed to the letter. When I came home, my pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust 100% with my furry family members. If you’re looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive pet sitter, look no further than Tyler! Thank you again for everything—you’re a lifesaver!”

“Katelyn has been great with Ares, especially as she’s still getting to know him. She does a wonderful job keeping me informed on his behavior and is very communicative while navigating the challenges that come with the puppy stage. I truly appreciate her effort, patience, and willingness to work with him. Thank you for everything, Katelyn! 🩵”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Zephyrhills South
Sarah was absolutely amazing with Cleo, Ozzy, and Toothless while we were away on vacation. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She was reliable, communicative, and treated our pets like they were her own. She took great care of our dogs and even made sure Toothless, our fish, was looked after too. We came home to happy pets and a smooth experience from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring.
Sarah was amazing. This was my first time leaving my dogs with a pet sitter and I was apprehensive. I had no reason to worry. Both dogs were very comfortable with her and I have one dog who has anxiety, and even he was at ease with Sarah. I received updates on a daily basis and Sarah was very communicative with letting me know how they were doing. And, my house was cleaner than when I left. Kiddos to Sarah. Will use her again.
Heather was amazing! After moving to Florida recently it has been hard for me to find someone that I trust with my dogs. Since day 1 of meeting Heather she was someone who I instantly felt I could trust. She was great with the dogs and remembered many of the details from our meet and greet. She is now my go to sitter for my babies when I have to travel!
Amy is, without a doubt, the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. We have a puppy and an older dog, and for a number of reasons, we don’t like boarding them at a facility or even sending them to another house. Amy brought her adorable pup with her and stayed with our dogs for five days, sharing pictures and check-ins that made us feel comforted and assured the entire time. Will book her again in a heartbeat!

FAQs for House Sitting - Zephyrhills South
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Zephyrhills South on Rover is $44.4 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 2,861 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Zephyrhills South. 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 Zephyrhills South 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 Zephyrhills South 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 Zephyrhills South 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 Zephyrhills South. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
