Isabel was an absolute delight! I was a little nervous booking with someone new, but the moment she came over to meet our dogs, I felt completely at ease. She kept us updated throughout our trip and sent plenty of photos. It was clear they were getting lots of love and attention—when we got home, they were relaxed and happy, so I knew they’d been well cared for. She will be my first call the next time I need someone to watch my boys.

My wife and I were in a bind trying to find reliable care for our cat before leaving on vacation, and a family member suggested Rover.com to us. We signed up, found Samantha's profile, and hired her without hesitation after a meet & greet. She did not disappoint!! She was excellent in every way...Friendly, responsive, informative, trustworthy, etc. She took great care of our little guy while we were away, and she was fantastic about proactively communicating with us. She sent us daily updates & pics to help put us at ease and allow us to enjoy our vacation without stress or worry. Like a lot of cats, ours can be a little shy and skittish with new people at first. However, it didn't take long for him to warm up and start cozying up to Samantha due to her friendly nature and great care of him. We would not hesitate to retain her services again or recommend her to anyone in need!! Thanks again Samantha!!

About: I grew up around dogs and have always enjoyed building a connection with them. I have experience caring for dogs in their own homes while their owners are away, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and set of needs. I am attentive to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, companionship, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I enjoy keeping dogs close by, giving them affection, and making sure they do not feel alone. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect, as if they were part of my own family. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dog is receiving dependable and loving care. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. I truly enjoy investing in their well-being, learning their personalities, and building a trusting connection with each dog in my care. I currently do not own a dog because my schedule has not allowed me to make the full commitment that dog ownership requires. However, I have cared for dogs on many occasions by dog sitting, playing with them, keeping them active, following their routines, and giving them the attention and companionship they need. I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where each dog can feel cared for and connected.

About: I've cared for dogs my whole life from bouncy puppies to seniors. Ive had 8 dogs over the years, and I've volunteered many animal shelters, so I'm comfortable with every breed, size, and personality, including the shy, anxious, or the high energy ones that need a little extra patience. Here's what sets me apart. First, I do photo and video for a living, so the daily updates you get from me won't be blurry phone pics. You'll always know exactly how they're doing, and you'll come home to real proof they were happy the whole time. Second, your dog gets my full one-on-one attention, no crowded kennel, no revolving door of dogs, just calm, focused care and someone who's actually present with them. And third, I keep their world exactly as they know it: same feeding times, same walks, same comfort spots, so nothing about their routine has to change just because you're away. Above all, I'm calm, attentive, and obsessed with getting the details right feeding times, walk routines, favorite toys, all of it. I treat every dog like my own. Let's start with a free Meet & Greet so you and your pup can get comfortable with me before you book anything. I work part-time on a flexible schedule, so your dog gets steady attention throughout the day instead of a sitter rushing in and out. I'm available for overnight stays and I respond fast usually within minutes. I'm also happy to be flexible on drop-off and pick-up times when travel plans shift (canceled flights and traffic happen I've got you). Message me your dates and let's set up a quick Meet & Greet. In your home (house sitting): I keep your dog's world exactly as they know it same feeding times, same walks, same comfy spots. I'm respectful and tidy in your space, follow every instruction you leave, and keep your home locked up and secure. I stay overnight so your dog is never alone, and you'll get regular photo and video updates so you can relax on your trip. In my home (boarding): Your dog gets a calm, clean, one-on-one environment with my full attention no crowded kennel, no chaos. I live in a non-smoking home in Downtown Fort Lauderdale with easy access to walks and parks nearby, and dogs are always welcome on the couch and bed so they never feel shut out.

About: Hi! My name is Giovanna, and I’m a caring, responsible dog sitter who truly loves animals. I’ve grown up around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for my own dog, my cousin’s dogs while she was away, and dogs I’ve watched as a sitter. I’ve also cared for a dog while babysitting two kids, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, attention, and responsibility at the same time. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and routine. I take the time to follow owners’ instructions carefully, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or just giving extra love and patience. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel secure while their owners are away. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and attentive to care for your dog, I’d be happy to help! I can walk dogs after 5pm on weekdays and can take care of them for days and during the night. On weekends I am free. I take care of dogs with a consistent daily routine that includes feeding on schedule, fresh water at all times, regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I make sure the dog gets enough exercise, mental stimulation, and rest. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and energy levels so I can notice if anything seems off. Cleanliness and safety are very important to me, and I always make sure the dog feels comfortable, calm, and loved.

Sophie is not an easy dog but bonded nicely with her. Thank you Pamela for making my trip more pleasant with less stress and worry.

About: I am currently in school for vet med and I work at K9 Resorts Luxury Pet Hotel, I just can’t get enough animals in my life! I have had all sorts of pets growing up and my passion for their care runs deep!! I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting since early middle school!! I AM still a student and I am in class Tues-Thurs 9-1. My work schedule can fluctuate but I usually only work 3 days a week. I live in an apartment and have 2 friendly cats, but if that is an issue for your pet, they can easily be securely separated. If you are uncertain about spacing or anything else, I am more than happy to come to you! If your pet needs exercise, I’m the right person to call!!

We recently had the pleasure of hiring Kaitlyn to take care of our dog and house while we were away, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, Kaitlyn was incredibly professional, attentive, and caring. Before we left, we had a thorough conversation about our dog's routines, dietary requirements, and any special instructions. Kaitlyn has a natural affinity with animals which was evident at that first meet and greet. She also took on the responsibility of looking after our home. We came back to a home that was not only clean and well-maintained but also with all the little details attended to. Kaitlyn exceeded our expectations as a dog and house sitter. Her genuine love for animals combined with her professionalism and attention to detail, make her the ideal choice for anyone in need of pet and house care. We recommend Kaitlyn and will undoubtedly be using her services again is available

About: As a dog and cat owner myself, I’m happy to treat any pets as my own. I have two pets, an elder dog and a cat who both have unfortunately needed medication throughout the years, so I’m experienced in administering medicine to pets. I’ve also fostered dogs and cats with all types of different personalities, and love running along with dogs and cats alike. 😸🐶 I’m a college student and have finished all my classes for the semester, meaning I have plenty of time to help out with fur babies. I’m used to incorporating my own pets into my routine, so any pet schedule works with my own! I’ve fostered both dogs and cats before, so I’m experienced with crating and transporting dogs or cats. Whatever you need for your pets in your home I’m happy to offer!

About: With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, attention, and love. I have cared for pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and sizes — from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets needing extra gentle care and support. My experience includes administering medications, feeding routines, senior pet assistance, walks, play dates, overnight care, cuddle time, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m experienced with big and small breeds alike and truly enjoy building trust and bonds with every furry friend I meet. Whether your pet loves long walks, belly rubs, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and care in their golden years, I always tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I treat every pet like family because I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your beloved companion in someone else’s care. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, secure, and stress-free while giving you confidence that they are in caring and reliable hands. Tail wags, happy walks, cuddles, and loving care guaranteed! 🐾 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because providing dependable, loving care for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my life. I carefully balance my personal schedule to ensure each pet receives dedicated attention, consistency, patience, and quality care throughout the day. I maintain a structured routine that allows me to stay organized between caring for pets and communicating with pet parents, including scheduled updates, photos, feeding routines, walks, medication administration, playtime, and companionship. I believe it’s important to create a healthy balance that allows me to fully focus on each pet’s individual needs while also keeping owners informed, reassured, and confident that their furry family members are in caring and reliable hands. By maintaining clear communication, time management, and personalized care routines, I’m able to provide a calm, trustworthy, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I provide pet care in both my home and my client’s home, and in either setting my focus is the same — making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. When pets stay with me, they’re in a calm, secure, and welcoming space where they can settle in, stick to their routine, and get plenty of attention and affection. When I go to a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure their pet is well cared for, relaxed, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m reliable, consistent, and attentive, and I always keep pet parents updated so they feel at ease while they’re away. At the end of the day, it’s about trust, consistency, and making sure every pet feels at home no matter where they are.

Alex was the best stand in fur mama I could have asked for. She treated my pups as if they were her own. Upon a house visit, while I was away on vacation, she discovered that my AC had broken. She immediately and lovingly volunteered to take her own pups to her mom’s house so that she could bring mine to stay at hers. Thankfully, I was able to get repairs done that day. While I was making arrangements she sat in her car with them, AC blasting, so that they could stay cool. She dropped them off a daycare for me, while the AC repair guy was working his magic. Then picked them up, brought them home, and cuddled them on the couch. None of this was what she was hired to do, she truly went above and beyond! And she did so in such a nurturing and happily willing manor. I am sooooo grateful they were in the care of someone who clearly and genuinely loves dogs. I will most definitely use Alex’s services again and recommend her to anyone who wants their pups well taken care of.

Outstanding service. So pleasant, patient. We have an 11 yr old Chihuahua that is a rescue and very nervous. She took such great time with him helping to reduce his anxiety through walks and comforting belly rubs. We will hire Isabel again and again. What a joy she is to work with. So glad we found her. We encourage everyone to tip generously for the extra care she provides because she truly cares about YOUR baby. She's sincere in all she does. Thanks you, Isabel.

Lisa took such good care of Yogi and on short notice. I could tell Yogi was attached to her. He followed her around as she was getting ready to leave when I got home. Right there, that told me Lisa was sweet and attentive to Yogi during the day and a half I was away. Definitely recommended.

Stella recently stayed with Presley for the third time, and once again she did a wonderful job. She is reliable, responsible, and consistently provides excellent care. Communication was great throughout the stay, and I especially appreciated the daily updates and reports that gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I returned home, the house was neat and well cared for, and most importantly, Presley was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. It’s such a relief to have a sitter I can trust completely. I highly recommend Stella to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional pet sitter.

Christina was amazing. It was our first time ever to have all been away as a family out of the country for my moms burial at sea . Not only was I completely comfortable with my choice selecting her but even as a stranger I trusted her 100% in my house for days at a time with full roaming capabilities. The house looked like it was never even stepped in. Everything in its place and clean and tidy. She was a gem and I know my fur kids were well taken care of even if my one cat never came out to meet her that was him not her and there was no weird vibes coming home

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT! would highly recommend Sheena. This was the very first time I left my two babies with someone I didn’t know, which was incredibly difficult for me. I usually travel alone, but after recently getting engaged, my fiancé and I decided to spend two weeks in Europe over Christmas. Inviting someone into my home and trusting them with my dogs—who truly are my babies—was extremely nerve-racking. I met with Sheena about a month and a half before our trip to make sure the dogs were comfortable, and they immediately took to her. That alone gave me peace of mind. Sheena house-sat for two weeks and went above and beyond in every way. She rarely left the home, ensured my dogs were always well cared for, and provided consistent updates throughout the day. When we returned, my home was left in immaculate condition—honestly better than I expected. I don’t trust easily, so this was a big step for me, but Sheena exceeded all expectations. I would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again for all future travels.

FAQs for House Sitting - Boca Del Mar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Boca Del Mar on Rover is $57.55 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 4,171 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boca Del Mar. 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 Boca Del Mar 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 Boca Del Mar 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 Boca Del Mar 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.
