“We were very pleased with Rowan caring for Charlie. She stayed in our home and watched our elderly pup while we traveled for a week. She was able to follow his specific needs and everything went smoothly. Our home was immaculate and Charlie was happy when we returned.”
“Izabela was WONDERFUL with our VERY energic puppy! She took her out to play many times a day and was able to handle her excitement! Izabela sent us updates and pictures every day, multiple times a day! She was extremely professional when we met, she followed up the day before to confirm everything, and was on time. I cannot recommend her enough! We will definitely be booking again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets for years, and I treat each one like they’re my own. I love all dogs. I’ve done walks, feeding, meds, and lots of playtime. I’ve worked with puppies and older pets who need extra care. I focus on each pet’s personality and routines, and I always send lots of photos so you know they’re happy and safe. I am exceptionally clean and I have a very high attention to detail. I have two college classes Monday through Thursday, each lasting a couple of hours. Outside of class, I’m free to help take care of pets. When I’m at a client’s home, I make sure the pets are safe and comfortable. I follow their instructions for feeding, exercise, or anything else they need. I watch them carefully and keep their space clean so they’re happy and safe. I’m a huge animal lover and enjoy spending time with them.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and I’m the go-to friend for watching other’s pets. I love animals and respect their delicate boundaries. I always ensure safety and comfort, and I try to create happy moments so that they love coming back. I make my own work schedule and setup my laptop in the kitchen so I can keep a good eye on everyone and take lots of breaks. I have a fenced yard with grass and lots of room for exploring. I will always be with your pet when outside as there is a swimming pool.
“Ekaterina is a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed with my frenchie while I was out of town and gave him great love and care. She sent many pictures and updates and was great with communication. I will book with her again.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. By the time I was 16, I had nine cats in my home, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience caring for multiple pets and understanding their individual needs. For the past 2.5 years, I’ve also been raising and caring for a special-needs dog, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, attentiveness, and providing extra care when needed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I would treat your pets like my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and reliable care! I work from 11:00 AM to 4:30 PM, but I’m available to care for pets outside of those hours. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love before and after work. I can also discuss availability on weekends and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s schedule and individual needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I have lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs, including raising a special-needs dog, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and following each pet’s specific needs and routines. I’m happy to care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I’ll always treat your home with respect and your pets like my own!
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. I’ve had a dog for 12 years and counting and I’ve been running a small dog walking/sitting job over the summer but id like to expand and do something while I’m in college. I can work almost any day of the week as long as I’m not in class. Fridays and weekends I can work longer. I work part time while I’ll be in college. I’ve been doing a small business where I drop in at peoples houses or stay overnight and they trust me to do so. I can also pick your dog up to go to the park.
“Tiera was great. My dog has special needs and isn’t good with people she doesn’t know. Tiera stayed with her over night. When I returned my dog was glad to see me but settle back into her normal routine. This told me she was comfortable with Tiera. I will use Tiera again definitely.”
“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!”
“She watched my baby Blair and was so calm, sweet, and patient with her! Blair is shy and scared of pretty much everything, so I really appreciated how gentle and easygoing she was. She even stayed longer with my baby! I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her. She’s amazing!! LOVE YOU MAYA ❤️”
“Shaila did a fantastic job house sitting and watching my two pups! She was very communicative and respectful of my place. When I got back, my dogs seemed very happy, which is the most important thing! I will definitely be using Shaila again in the future.”
About: I've owned dogs for most of my life, and I have taken care of many neighbors dogs growing up. My family dog, Bodie, is a 5 month old Bernese Mountain Dog. He currently lives at home with my parents in Maryland, and I miss him very much. I am super excited about watching some of your pets, and getting some of that animal love that I've been missing! I currently work from home, so I have a super flexible schedule. I start my days around 6:30 am and wind down around 9:30 pm. I live in a spacious, clean 1 bed 1 bath apartment in Spyglass Seaside. We have several dog parks in the community and a couple great walking paths.
“Marian was absolutely wonderful!!! She went above and beyond while taking care of Hunter this past weekend. She sent plenty of photos and videos, kept in touch regularly, and made sure I always felt updated and at ease. Hunter can be a bit particular with his schedule — going in and out, changing collars for day and night, etc. — but Marian handled it all perfectly. He was clearly comfortable and happy with her, which says everything! On top of that, she took excellent care of my home, was very respectful, and truly made the whole experience stress-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend Marian — we will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and raised several functioning young adult humans. Now I’m offering the same responsible, loving care for your pup. Currently no pets, smoking or kids at home. I work from home, so I am around all day. Beautiful green area for nice walks. I work from home, so I am around all day to give your dog the love and attention they need. My schedule is flexible, with some meetings but not tons. I will care for your pet as if it is my own. Dogs may roam freely downstairs, in my home office and anywhere except primary bedroom. Food/walks on your schedule.
“As always, Elise took great care of our animals. She treated them like her own and gave us daily updates. Everything was nice and tidy when we came home and the animals were very happy. We will definitely use get again and would recommend to others.”
About: I have so much genuine love for animals and my experience with a wide range of pets. I'm super comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I've got some training experience with puppies, so I can help reinforce basic commands and good behavior. Plus, I'm really good at recognizing when a pet might need extra attention or medical care, especially with older animals. I always make sure to keep their routines consistent and give them lots of love! I make sure pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine by prioritizing it. I schedule specific blocks of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and any necessary vet visits. I also keep a flexible schedule so I can adjust to any unexpected needs or emergencies that may arise. Since I don’t watch dogs at my place, I focus on providing top-notch care in my clients' homes. When I'm at your place, I stick to your pet's routine as closely as possible, so they feel secure and comfortable. I always make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I'm also super careful about keeping their environment clean and safe.

She watched my baby Blair and was so calm, sweet, and patient with her! Blair is shy and scared of pretty much everything, so I really appreciated how gentle and easygoing she was. She even stayed longer with my baby! I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her. She’s amazing!! LOVE YOU MAYA ❤️
Avery did an amazing job taking care of Leo and Luna during her overnight house sitting! 🐾❤️ She was responsible, caring, and made sure they were both safe, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my babies were in good hands. I would absolutely trust Avery with Leo and Luna again and highly recommend her!
Samantha is reliable, caring and absolutely amazing. Our two dogs, Mackenzie, a 3 year old Golden Retriever, and Kelce, an 18 week old English Cream, love Sam!! When she comes to the door, our two dogs are so happy and excited to see her. She brings Mackenzie out on adventures, and plays with both of them in our fenced in area. Samantha communicates throughout her stay with the dogs which allows us to enjoy our time away!
We were very pleased with Rowan caring for Charlie. She stayed in our home and watched our elderly pup while we traveled for a week. She was able to follow his specific needs and everything went smoothly. Our home was immaculate and Charlie was happy when we returned.
Nicolette was wonderful! She stayed in great communication throughout her stay, followed all of our instructions, and took such good care of our pets and our home. We came back to happy pets and a clean house, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’re incredibly grateful for her help and would absolutely appreciate having her stay with our pets again!
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.
Christopher did a great job taking care of my two babies! One of my dogs was having a medical issue while I was gone and Christopher promptly notified me of his condition. He was willing to take him to the vet, if necessary. Fortunately, it wasn’t necessary and everything turned out ok. Then, my delayed flight caused a missed flight and Christopher was flexible and willing to stay longer to accommodate the situation. He was great with providing me with detailed updates on how they were doing each day I was gone. My dogs were well taken care of and happy when I got home. My house was left clean and he even put my garbage on the curb on trash pickup day. I would not hesitate to have Christopher take care of my fur babies in the future!
Ian stayed at my house for two weeks. He took good care of my little Rosie and my house. He is very flexible and a very good choice for a reliable person to stay in your home. His work schedule allows him to work from home so he was with Rosie most of the time.
I had a wonderful experience with Anna! She took great care of my older dog, Holden, and my home while I was away. She was incredibly communicative, sending regular updates and photos that gave me peace of mind. It was clear she was kind, patient, and genuinely sweet with Holden. I came home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home. I would definitely book with her again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Boca Raton is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $122 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
