“Maureen was an awesome dog sitter! We were out of town for almost a week, and she came to fill in the gaps between when our family member would be at the house, and at work. The dogs responded really well to her! She gave them the attention that we hoped for, and made sure that all was in order. Very easy to communicate with! She sent daily photos of them, and it was so great to know they were in great hands! Highly recommend!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Julie! She took care of my cat TippyToes for 9 days, and she was absolutely fantastic. She sent photos twice a day along with thoughtful updates, so I always knew how TippyToes was doing. It gave me such peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, everything was clean and tidy, and most importantly, Tips was happy and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy trusting someone with your fur baby, but Julie made the entire experience wonderful. She is responsible, attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely caring. I would recommend her in a heartbeat and will absolutely be calling her again. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to care for your fur baby, look no further!”

About: I have owned a pit bull for the past five years, so I fully understand the energy and responsibility that can come with caring for a strong and spirited dog. In addition to this, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a variety of other breeds, including a Chihuahua, Golden Retriever, and several Labradors. Each one has been a joy to look after—friendly, affectionate, and full of personality. By the end of the day, they were happy, well-exercised, and ready to rest. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule. My mornings and evenings are consistently available, while my afternoon availability can vary from day to day. However, I am reliably available for morning and evening care every day, if needed. I will walk your dog only in the areas you designate and for the distance you are comfortable with. Your dog’s safety is my top priority by always maintain a respectful distance from other dogs and people to avoid overstimulation or potential incidents. I also carry a backup leash in case of emergency, as well as waste bags to ensure the area is kept clean.

About: I have over 5 years experience of pet walking and over night pet boarding. I have grown up with dogs for over 19 years and know how to care for them, love them, and entertain them! Since I am away at college without my dog, as a part time job, I would love to care for your pets! I have a very flexible schedule while in school. I can be available in the morning, afternoon, and night. I am also open on the weekends. Whatever safety requirements the pet owner needs, I can accommodate, I have experience with safe dog walking, I am able to crate your pet, and I can also administer medication, if needed.

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.

“Amber was a very sweet and a dedicated sitter while I was away. She came and not only feed and change the water for Fiona, but she also stayed a little longer to give her much needed company. And that I truly appreciate that. She consistently communicated with me through the app through text and video to give me daily updates of her check ins. So I was always keep in the loop in case anything happen. This was a great first time experience and I hope to use Amber service again in the future.”

About: I'm the person some of us have in the friend group who during a gathering, suddenly vanishes and is probably hanging out with the dog or cat somewhere. I’m working part-time while studying data analytics. I have a flexible schedule with the free time to drop by and feed, walk, and play with fur babies. Safety for your pet, and providing you with peace of mind is my absolute priority. I provide drop-ins, following their regular schedule for food and water, and walks following schedule as well.

About: As a lifelong dog lover and dog owner, I understand that pets are family. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your dog while you’re away, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. As a homeowner and longtime Airbnb host, I’ve learned the importance of maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming environment where both people and pets feel comfortable. I work remotely from home part-time, which allows me to provide a flexible schedule and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available Monday through Sunday for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. I enjoy keeping dogs active with walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of one-on-one attention. If your dog is social, enjoys other dogs, and you approve, I’m also happy to include visits to local dog parks such as Mizner Bark Dog Park for extra exercise and fun. Every dog is different, so I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, activity level, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, potty breaks, and favorite activities. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention. “As a fellow dog owner, I understand how reassuring regular updates are, so I’ll send photos and messages to keep you connected with your pup while you’re away.” My dog is friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys meeting other dogs. I always make introductions carefully to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe.”

She even goes the extra mile and cleans the cats dishes and spoons and countertops when she leaves. Absolutely incredible!”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and have always had a huge love for animals. When I was 23, I got my two babies—a Golden Retriever and a Lab, both 80+ lbs—and they truly are my life! 🐶❤️ I have experience caring for and handling both large and small dogs, and I’m strong and confident when it comes to walking bigger dogs on leash. I’m also comfortable taking dogs to the dog park and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. Most importantly, I want every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable as part of our family! As you can see, we had our dogs as part of our engagement shoot, so that should tell you how much we love our boys. 🤣 I live in Boca with my fiance and I work part time remotely so I have tons of time dedicated to taking care of the pets! We have a large fenced yard for the first and last potty of the day. Other than that we live in a great neighborhood for walks and live close to an AMAZING dog park that I bring my 2 boys to every morning. Happy to do whatever your dog needs to feel good :)

About: I’ve had a dog/s my whole life, so caring for them comes very natural to me. I also often dog sit for family and friends, where I work with dogs of all different personalities + sizes, helping with things like walks, feeding, and keeping them company while they’re owners are away. On top of that, I volunteered at an animal shelter for most high school. I’m currently going to college in the Boca Raton area, so other than school I have a ton of free time on my hands. I’m available basically whenever and can adjust to your pet’s schedule, whether that’s early mornings, afternoons, evenings, or even last minute requests. I’ve been taking care of my own dog/s my whole life, which includes daily walks, feeding him on a consistent schedule with his very specific food, brushing out his fur, playing with him both inside and outside, and keeping him company when he’s relaxing. Through this, I’ve learned how important routine, attention, and care are in keeping a pet happy and healthy.

Haley arranged for a "meet & greet" and I was so impressed I booked her right away. My dog Lily is getting older and can be bit of a Diva at times, but she was very comfortable with Haley from the beginning. Even with the torrential rainstorms last weekend, Haley kept with our regular schedule and made sure Lily wasn't too anxious with the storms. I appreciated receiving the report cards and photos, so I knew Lily was enjoying the company while I was away. Haley is very reliable and responsible, I'll certainly book her services again, and recommend her for other folks.

She was reliable, respectful, and genuinely understanding of my cat’s individual needs. She provided great updates, helpful feedback, and lovely photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she truly cared about making my cat feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Carolina was thoughtful, communicative, and attentive throughout the entire experience.

First time user of Rover and I went thru 3 people before I found a standout gem. A true professional. Little older than other pet sitters and more responsible. Christina makes your worries about leaving your pets - go away. For example, I needed someone who could give one of my pets medication. Slightly complicated but Christina came over of her own accord and did a practice run. She of her own accord watered plants (never asked), cleaned out litter box, took everyday videos of pets, and cleaned up vomit. Who does that? She’s remarkable and I want to share her. I will ONLY be using her from now on as no one else can compete with her. I lucked out.

I have been using Sam as needed over the past 2 years and my dog absolutely adores her and so do I. It took me a long time to find someone who could handle him, as he is 88 lbs. and pulls when being walked. I work long hours and always feel at ease when I have her scheduled to walk Bowie because she has always been able to handle him so well. She gives him quality time in addition just a quick walk. She is very communicative, texts when they are together and sends pictures to me while I am at work. Best of all, she is reliable and punctual. I trust her in my home and she is always there at the exact time she says she will be. I am so grateful to have found her. When I have her scheduled to walk my dog, i have complete peace of mind.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Boca Raton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Boca Raton is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 per visit. 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.

As of November 2026, there are 5,806 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Boca Raton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boca Raton. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
