“Cassidy was a thoughtful and prepared sitter. She provided an update about our pup every morning and was quick to change plan to adjust to our pup’s needs. She utilized the resources we had at the house to ensure our pup was getting enough stimulation outside of walks. Cassidy was thoughtful in ensuring both household and pet needs were met while we were away. We would love to have Cassidy back.”
“Claudette was outstanding! We couldn’t have had a better experience with her. She communicated regularly throughout the day and took perfect care of our two dogs, sending pics and videos every day. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have my own pup, a mini Australian Shepherd who is my best friend and my child. I'm a server so I work short shifts and am available to help those who's job is more demanding of time or if you just need a getaway pet free! I'm free to do whatever your pup likes, walks, runs, naps! I have no issues with giving your dog medication or special care if need be. I understand that a pet being watched in your own home is the best case scenario. This causes less stress for your pet. I also understand letting a stranger care for your pet could be stressful. I have been a resident of Bradenton and Anna Maria for 10 years now and have worked at the same restaurant on Anna Maria for 7 years now. I'm very reliable and trustworthy. I will treat your furbaby as my own.
“This was my first time leaving my new dog and I had the pleasure of having Beckett take care of my three month old puppy while I was out of town this past week. As a puppy, my dog definitely needed more attention and care as he is still getting house broken and I was really looking for someone who would be comfortable and happy attending to those extra needs. Beckett was just the person for the job and I could not have been happier with the whole experience. He is incredibly responsible, super easy to communicate with (he continuously kept me updated on how my pup was doing), was also very accommodating with my schedule and definitely has a way with dogs. I am so glad that I hired Beckett for this job and will definitely be hiring him again in the future!”

About: I may be new to professional pet care, I’ve always had a love for animals! Whether it’s caring for friends’ pets, spending time with family dogs and cats, or simply having a deep appreciation for furry companions, I know how important it is to provide pets with love, attention, and a safe environment.

My goal is to ensure that every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m excited to provide personalized attention and care based on each pet’s needs!

I follow all given instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special needs the pet may have. I provide plenty of playtime, cuddles, and exercise (as appropriate for the pet’s needs), ensuring they get the love and attention they’re used to. I also keep the home tidy and respect the client’s space, making sure everything is just as they left it. Communication is key, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they’re away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bradenton Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,443 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bradenton Beach. 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 Bradenton Beach 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 Bradenton Beach 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 Bradenton Beach 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.
