Samantha was FANTASTIC!!!! She house sat for us while we were away for the weekend and took care of our dog and two cats. We got regular updates and lots of pictures, the animals really took to her and enjoyed her company. She came over to meet them twice before we went away so they were familiar with and comfortable alone with her. We were thrilled to be able to leave them in their normal environment. Sam really took great care of them, gave them lots of love and did everything we needed her to do. It was a great experience, we would strongly recommend her to anyone interested and we plan on hiring her again in the future. THANK YOU SAM!!

Isabel was phenomenal with my three month old puppy. She took great care of him, followed my care schedule that I do with him. She did the same thing.My puppy requires a lot of care and constant supervision and she made sure everything was safe and sent me the cutest pics of my puppy throughout the day. I was able to go to work everyday relieved knowing that Isabella was taking care of my puppy!

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.

London was absolutely wonderful! We booked her last minute and she took amazing care of both Brodie and our home. She was incredibly responsive, kind, and respectful of our space, leaving everything clean and exactly as we left it. Most importantly, Brodie loved her which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, London! 😊

About: Hands on responsible and an animal lover- I will treat your dog like my own! I took care of dogs for the last 20 years, adopted a few and love them all. I am currently working part-time so I got plenty of time and flexibility- weekends as well and nights- open schedule, mornings overnights, weekends . I like to send pictures of the pets I live in a very quiet clean gated community, plenty of green area around, boca Del Mar area. Also have a dog park sticker for Mizner Bark

About: This is my first time being without a pet, so I’m excited to get my furry-friend fix! I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home and love pups of all sizes and personalities. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily accommodate your needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own! Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day to keep your pet company and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m very attentive and experienced with pups who need a little extra care or attention. I live in a condo with plenty of nearby green space that’s perfect for walks and playtime. If your pet stays with me, they’ll get lots of outdoor time and attention in between! When I care for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your usual routine and walking routes so everything feels familiar and comfortable for them.

Stephanie went above and beyond. My baby girl was in the best hands. She was happy in her daily pictures and loved having Stephanie take care of her. Stephanie is a God sent and I'm so gracious to her for her outstanding care of my Chihuahua and Jack Terrier mix. We are definitely looking forward to having Stephanie back in our home regularly. 💕 🐕‍🦺💜🏘️🫶

About: I love to play with dogs if they have a favorite Toy. I let them come up to me first to sniff and pet after. I work 8-430 M-F. I would be available for an evening drop in or strictly just open availability on weekends. Seeking side gig close by. I keep everything maintained and clean whether it’s my own cat or my brothers shiba dog. I like to make sure they have clean water at all times. If allowed give a treat for good behavior.

Another FANTASTIC experience with Bruce. This was my second time having him take care of my 2.5 year old pug. Bruce took care of her like she was his own. She was cared for the way I would if not better. I cannot say enough about how communicative he was on a daily basis giving updates and sending pics of her on walks, playing with her toys and snuggling up on the couch. It gave me such peace of mind knowing I can travel and not need to worry about my pup. I had a sudden delay in getting back and Bruce stepped in to extend his stay so I didn’t need to worry about her while dealing with flight cancellations. That meant the world to me. When I arrived home my house was spotless. He left it in mint condition just like last time. Any questions I had Bruce continuously kept the communication lines open. Bruce is truly the dog whisperer. Anyone would be lucky to have Bruce for pet sitting. Another 5++++ star review. I highly recommend Bruce and look forward to another pet sitting in the near future. :)

About: Hi there! My name is Lorena, and I'm a proud dog mom of two. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always had a special love for them. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. That's why I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Over the years, I've cared for the pets of family and friends and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply companionship, I'm happy to provide the attention and care they deserve. I have a fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, two friendly dogs, and indoor gates available if needed for everyone's safety and comfort. I recommend scheduling a meet and greet before booking so we can make sure it's a great fit. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to meet you and your fur baby! I am available seven days a week. Dog walks and drop-in visits are available Mondays from 12:30 PM to 8:00 PM and Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Feel free to message me with any questions about scheduling! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I understand how important routines are, so I'll follow your pet's schedule and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to make them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you're away. In my home, your pet will enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and supervised outdoor time in my fenced backyard. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your space with respect while providing the same love and care they're used to. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I'll care for your furry family member as if they were my own.

About: I've mostly taken care of cats my whole life, but I really love working with dogs when I have the chance! Especially bigger dogs! I'm very comfortable handling them without getting thrown around. Currently I'm waiting for college to start back up so I have plenty of time to care for your animals! I'm big on communicating and scheduling so I can accommodate to my client's needs. My two cats are unfortunately not huge fans of dogs in the house, so any in house care would be at your place of residence. I live with others so the kitties won't be by themselves either. I am comfortable crating dogs if they are already familiar doing so and will be giving them lots of attention while with them. I encourage you to send me any specific care needs your pets require so I can make them as comfortable as they can be. Expect pictures!

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.

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 Raton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Boca Raton on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,672 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boca Raton. 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 Raton 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 Raton 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 Raton 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.
