“Izabela was fantastic. 10 stars, not 5! She is kind, patient, communicative and loved our dog, Brady! Our air conditioning went out over the weekend when she was there, and she was a trooper working through all of it. Can't say enough good things about her. Already hired her again for this week!!!”
“This was our first time using someone who we didn’t know to care for our baby. Upon meeting Vianca, she was so friendly and kind. She listened and understood our pets needs & followed them perfectly. She sent photos throughout the evening and kept us updated. I couldn’t recommend her enough! We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Sara was fantastic! She was responsible, responsive and very prompt with her communication. Both dogs were very comfortable with her - even our picky boy Tucker! We would recommend her and plan on hiring her again.”
About: Hi!! For my whole life I have always had a dog, Shih-tuzs mainly, however I have been around and taken care of various dogs all the way from Dachshunds to Pitbulls and of all ages as well! I love dogs and am very patient with walks, special necessities and more. I would love to meet and take care of all of your little fur babies 🐾❤️ I am currently a student with classes 2 days a week, I am fairly active so I would love to go on walks and play while at home or at a dog park. I am unable to have pets in my home due to my loving situation being on my college campus. However taking care of pets at a clients home I am very respectful of all rules and boundaries, I am open to all conversation to feel comfortable. I will take amazing care of you pet and all of his/ her needs!
About: I'm a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter. As someone who has had pets my entire life, I understand that every pet has their own needs and personality. I have a genuine love to get to know and care for each animal as they need. I have expertise with pets of all ages and needs and can't wait to grow a bond with yours! I am currently an online student at FAU, since I take online my school work will not interfere with care. I am in the process of getting a part time job but it will only be for a few hours a day. Therefore, no animal will be left alone for more than a few hours. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow the pets normal routine as normal as possible, making sure their feeding, walks, etc are as close to normal as possible. I also respect clients home while caring for their pets by keeping their space clean and tidy.
“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.”
About: I have the biggest heart for animals. I grew up with a golden retriever and 3 cats, but have been surrounded by friends and family’s animals my whole life. Many people in my town back home will have me walk their pups, stop in and let them out, and trust me to stay with their furry friends for days at a time. I have a very open class schedule so I am able to be very flexible and all over the place when it comes to to pet care I am still working on a solution to how I can keep pets in my apartment. But I am happy to stay as long as needed in homes to keep their pup company. I can so quick drop in visits or stay for a lengthy amount of time. I’d love to bring these dogs to the beach or on a walk on some trails!
“Marissa was absolutely wonderful. She kept our cat, Jet, and our leopard gecko Stanley great company while we were on a vacation. She is responsible, communicative, and puts your pets first always! Will absolutely be a repeat client!”
About: Hello! My name is Ivy. I'm a university student looking for work. I am responsible and obsessed with dogs. Happy to watch cats as well. I have experience watching, walking, and caring for both. I'm missing my dog so much. She recently fell very sick and had to be put down. I need my doggie fix while I'm at University. I'm American and have lived all over the world with my family in the US Foreign Service. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I'm open to staying at your place for up to one week. Same goes for walks or potty breaks/ play time. I can also walk or use the bikes. I'm happy to meet the needs of your pet - take them out and about with me, or sit in your house. You make the rules. I will be aware of your pet's disposition - if they're not social or good with other pets, we can structure our time accordingly. You make the rules clear, and I'll follow them. I currently have an open and flexible schedule, so I'm available any day of the week, including weekends and holidays. This allows me to provide your pet with consistent care, plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and lots of love while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I've owned a dog myself and always made sure they were safe and never got out, so I understand how important trust is. I provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and playtime, and will always follow your pet's routine and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
“Jessica was absolutely fantastic looking after Cookie over the weekend while we were away. She came to our house and took such great care of him, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing Cookie was comfortable and happy in his own home. Jessica was reliable, caring, trustworthy and kept us reassured throughout the weekend. It was clear that Cookie was very comfortable with her and had been extremely well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Jessica look after Cookie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring to look after their pet. Thank you so much, Jessica! 🐶”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was 5 years old, I pet sit for neighbors all the time, and have volunteered at humane societies to help out, I want to make sure your pets get the proper care they need! I’m currently working part time as a barista and am studying Theatre in college! My schedule is good for drop ins, dog walking, and some over night stays throughout the day depending on classes and work. I usually have work in late afternoon, so as long as you message me it should be easy to work around! When sitting for your pet, if you have any special instructions about letting them outside, and what they are allowed to be fed I will make sure they get the proper schedule they need and are used to!

About: I have assisted in training two puppies and have experience specifically in walking large and medium size dogs since I have had two of my own! I also have a secret love for cats after helping to raise one up from being a kitten as well. I am a busy college student with a schedule that allows for flexibility and weekend work, which makes making my own schedule exciting and easy to work around! I can easily crate and take dogs for longer or shorter walks depending on what they need! I am good at following instructions for specific training, diet, or play as well!
About: I lived my entire life with at least one Maltese in the house, so I know a thing or two about how those fur babies tick. That knowledge has come to span across numerous dog breeds, especially those teeny tinier guys! I’ve walked, bathed, fed, watered, and played with my own little dogs, my friend’s little dogs, and my friend’s friend’s little dogs. Yours will always be in good hands as long as I’m around :) I’m working part time and heading back to school next year, so for the time being, I have a lot of time to hang out with your furry children! My work schedule varies week to week, but I’m typically off no later than 5:00. Message me to see my availability, until further notice! Pets in my home are always within eyeshot. I make it a point to ensure all cords and choking hazards are put away (as I have a small kitten who would get into them otherwise). Any visits to the balcony are entirely supervised, and I even keep a small playpen to take outside should a pet need it. As for home care, my aim for safety doesn’t change even at your place. I will ensure nothing is around for your pet to get into, and follow any additional instructions to a T (such as crating, keeping animals separate, etc.)
About: Hi! I’m a college student at FAU, originally from NJ. I have 2 dogs of my own (boxers) and have grown up around animals my whole life such as cats, dogs, and even reptiles! I have a dog who requires seizure medication and a senior dog with hip issues who requires medication and extra assistance from time to time. Therefore, I am experienced with making sure your pet receives any medication or any extra assistance they may need. Being so far away from my pets has been hard. I would love to take care of and meet your pets! I am currently a college student with about 1 class a day Monday-Friday. I have lacrosse on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and every once in awhile Saturdays for 2 hours. I am able to come and take care of/let out your pets anytime besides the few hours I am preoccupied. I have had experience with dogs (specifically big dogs) for the past 10 years and am well knowledged on the proper care needed. I take my dogs (2 boxers) on walks frequently and feed them/give them their medicine. I have a senior dog with hip issues who requires medication and extra assistance jumping on furniture and requires short walks. My other dog experiences seizures and is given medication daily to prevent them as well as medication to stop them when they are occurring. Besides dogs, I have a couple years of experience living with and taking care of cats. I also have grown up with reptiles!!
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-Fri, 9-1. My work schedule can fluctuate but I only work 3 days a week, usually Sat, Sun, and Wed. Mondays I am fully free! 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!!

Jessica was absolutely fantastic looking after Cookie over the weekend while we were away. She came to our house and took such great care of him, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing Cookie was comfortable and happy in his own home. Jessica was reliable, caring, trustworthy and kept us reassured throughout the weekend. It was clear that Cookie was very comfortable with her and had been extremely well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Jessica look after Cookie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring to look after their pet. Thank you so much, Jessica! 🐶
We hired Monika to do a house stay while we were out of town. She took good care of Kayla while we were away. She responded promptly to messages, followed directions, checked in when she had questions, and cleaned up the house and did laundry before she left. She also bought extra dog treats and toys for her (AND double checked the ingredients with us first). Overall, would recommend Monika for any long term sits.
I highly recommend London's dog-sitting services. My dog fell in love with London within seconds of meeting her—it truly was love at first sight. From the very beginning, it was obvious how deeply she cares for animals. She has a calm, gentle manner that immediately put our dog at ease, whether she was playing with him, taking him for walks, or simply spending time with him. While we were away, London kept us updated with thoughtful text messages and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. She took the initiative to learn every detail about our dog's routine and care, followed all of our instructions carefully, and went above and beyond by meeting with us before our trip to ensure everything would go smoothly. We returned home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend London to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter.
Catherine was absolutely incredible watching our kittens! From the initial meet to the end of the booking, communication was top-notch with frequent updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. She followed every single feeding, litter, and play instruction perfectly, and the kittens bonded with her right away. We came home to very happy pets and a spotless home. We will definitely be booking her again and cannot recommend her enough! She is my forever cat sitter. Mira and raja love her.
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.
Amber was amazing with my pups. She stayed 2 nights with them and made sure to keep me updated throughout my whole trip with lots of cute photos and videos. It gave me great peace of mind having her there knowing she was taking good care of them. I'll definitely be booking her services again in the future!
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
Bruce is great. My Great Dane is very sweet and fun but he’s a giant energetic handful and Bruce is up to the task! He stayed at my house and he even took him to the dog park regularly which is not easy ( though it’s fun). Bruce is communicative and trustworthy. I highly recommend him.

FAQs for House Sitting - Boca Raton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Boca Raton on Rover is $63.57 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,628 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boca Raton. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
