“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.”
“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 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!!
“Marissa stayed with my 2 girls for 3 nights and took such great care of them! She treated them like they were her own and gave them lots of love and snuggles during some really bad thunderstorms that cause them a lot of anxiety. She sent me lots of pictures and communicated consistently throughout her stay. I have already booked her for another trip I’m taking next month. Highly recommend Marissa if you’re looking for an overnight sitter!”
“Anna did an outstanding job house sitting and taking care of my dog, Apollo. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with animals. Apollo can be a bit particular, but Anna handled everything with patience and care—it was obvious he was comfortable and well looked after. She kept the house in great shape, followed all instructions, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s not easy trusting someone with both your home and your dog, but Anna made it effortless. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful house sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”
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: Hello! I have been taking care of animals for a little over 3 years now and love it! I get to meet all types of animals and their personalitites and wouldnt trade it for anything. I am a college student but can work with any schedule. I would be delighted to watch your furry friends! I have open availability most of my day, the only time slot I wont be able to visit is from 9:30-1:30 because of highschool. Other than that my full attention is on your furry friend! I always keep an eye on whatever pets I am watching no matter what to make sure they are safe. I care for other animals as if they were my own.
About: With over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate pet sitting services. From daily walks and feedings to medication administration and playtime, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My background includes working with pets of all ages and temperaments, including those with anxiety. I prioritize your pet’s comfort, routine, and safety—ensuring peace of mind while you're away! Since I am currently working part-time, I offer flexible scheduling to meet your pet’s needs. I am available most days and hours! Whether you’re away for the day or for an extended trip, I will ensure that your pets stay happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a secure, stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable during both overnight stays and drop-in visits. I will follow your instructions and guidelines down to the letter in order to maintain your pet’s safety and routine.
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.)
“Excellent experience with Nicole! Very flexible and accommodating with our plans. She kept in touch and updated us through the day. Bridget was very comfortable and loved on.”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have experience caring for both my own pets and those of friends and neighbors. As a cat owner, I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving plenty of attention and playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive, and I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I work full time, as a site manager. I have time in the morning before work 7 am, right after work 4pm and then right after training 8pm. I can play with them and provide quality time, I really do love animals so getting paid to do it is a bit of a steal haha
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: I've owned and raised almost every typical house pet you can think of. Nothing too exotic but almost everything else is included. Trained house trained and taking care of most of my life I travel for work and I'm in between projects for the next couple of months. I'm still employed and stable but like to stay busy and active. Ultimately speaking doesn't matter what kind of pet if you treat them with kindness and love they will follow. Animals are about energy and I can relate and understand that
“The service that Candace provided for my animals was beyond impressive and professional. This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and I believe that we will continue to use Candace in the future. My girls were treated like royalty and my foster kittens didn't even realize I wasn't there. I was nervous about leaving my new puppy, only three months old, but Candace did a great job reinforcing what she has already been taught. She also sent me multiple pictures and videos of my animals while I was away, in addition to sending me several daily updates. I would definitely recommend Candace to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Boca Raton is $55

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.
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! 😊
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Boca Raton on Rover is $55.5 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 3,612 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.

- 93% 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.
