About: My love for animals goes beyond simply caring for them; it comes from the heart! Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for friends’ pets and helping families with their furry companions. I also volunteered at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, which strengthened my appreciation for animal care and wildlife conservation. What sets me apart is the love, patience, and personal attention I give every animal. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra cuddles, I always follow your instructions and your dog's routine carefully. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup feels happy and cared for. I treat every animal with the same kindness and affection I would want for my own! My flexible work schedule allows me to make pet care a priority throughout the day! I work only 10 minutes from home, which allows me to visit pets during my lunch break, and I finish work early in the afternoon, giving me plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. I’m also available on weekends since I don’t work Saturdays or Sundays. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and provide loving, reliable care whenever your furry family members need me! I provide loving, attentive care both in your home and mine. I follow each pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, keep their spaces clean, and give them plenty of love and attention. Caring for pets in their own homes allows them to stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also have a spacious apartment in a pet-friendly community with plenty of outdoor space for walks and playtime. Wherever they are, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved like family!

About: Animals have always been a massive part of my life. I recently shared 18 wonderful years with my own sweet dog, and missing her has made me realize how much love I still have to give. I would look after your pet as if they were my own—providing a calm, patient, and deeply affectionate home away from home. I understand the unique bond we share with our animals and will ensure yours feels completely safe and cherished." While I work full-time Monday through Friday, I’m available to care for pets on weekends and after work, starting around 5:30 PM. I’m dependable, attentive, and will make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, and love during the time I’m with them. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs and make sure they feel comfortable and secure while they’re in my care. I also keep pet areas clean and provide regular updates and photos to their owners so they know how their pet is doing.

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: My family had owned dogs my entire life, ranging from a German shepherd to rescues with extreme anxiety. I have pet sit countless times for my parents and other family members when they are away on vacation. I also spent a year and a half working at Dynamite Dog Training in Delray Beach. I started as a handler but quickly moved up to becoming head trainer. Through that job I have experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I am currently between jobs, so I have a very open schedule to work with. I am very much looking forward to working with dogs again and can usually fit my schedule to whatever services you are looking for. I have a fenced yard with a pool and multiple roommates, so your dog will have plenty of attention. Sometimes other small dogs stop by depending on the day. However if you prefer your dog being watched at your home, I will make sure they get plenty of play time and mental stimulation.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for large breeds, including my own Rottweiler, as well as two cats, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve worked with dogs who have allergies, mobility issues, and sensitive backgrounds, so I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping pets calm, safe, and comfortable. I’m very active and confident handling dogs of all sizes, including strong or high-energy breeds. Daily care is a big part of my routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining consistent schedules. I also have experience preparing specialized meals and following detailed care instructions, including medications when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep things stress-free. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently use a scooter for transportation, so I focus on local bookings and do not offer car transport (such as trips to dog parks that require driving). If preferred, I can have my boyfriend assist for extra support—especially helpful for longer stays or multiple pets—but only with your approval. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks during house sitting, such as keeping things tidy, bringing in mail, or basic upkeep. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a key part of my daily and weekly routine. I walk, feed, groom, and play with my dogs every day, making sure they stay happy and healthy. I also prepare homemade meals tailored to their needs, especially because one has allergies and the other has mobility challenges. With my cats, I give them attention and respect their space. I’m organised and committed to providing consistent, loving care for all pets in my life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s familiar environment. I make sure to provide companionship, feeding, exercise, and any medication as directed. I communicate regularly with the owner to update them on their pet’s wellbeing and any concerns.

About: I love, love, love dogs, and aside from having many of my own previously, I now love taking care of others. I am great with both active and sedentary types, all shapes and sizes. I am loving, confident and very familiar with dog behaviors (as I have spent years training mine and others), so I am a solid pack leader. I can offer soft and gentle snuggles or fun and activity- either if fine. I am comfortable with various diet preferences and schedules (even home made foods). I am available for play-time and walks, feedings, medicine, pet cleaning jobs/tasks, overnight boardings or errands. I do have a full-time job, and depending on the day I can be at work for 8 hours and sometimes longer, and other times I work shorter shifts and times are more flexible. I am available most days and am able to adjust my schedule with advance notice should it be needed/required. I have lots of free time outside of work and live near areas with long walking trails and beach access. I am happy to spend time outdoors seeking activity and adventure or staying inside where its quiet, cool and calm. No matter how the time is spent, I can assure that the time will be enjoyed. I do not have a yard- so outside of walks or outdoor adventures (which I am certain to provide many should you desire) your pet would be indoors with me. There are no young children around or other pets. My home is quiet, secure, clean and safe.

Maria was absolutely wonderful! She house sat for us and took care of our cat, Star, for ten days while we were traveling, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and caring, and she kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and messages. It was such a comfort seeing how relaxed, happy, and comfortable Star was with her. Maria took excellent care of both Star and our home, and everything was perfect when we returned. Knowing Star was in such loving and capable hands allowed us to truly enjoy our trip without worrying. We would absolutely trust Maria to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Maria!

I truly cannot recommend Eduardo enough! If I could give him more than five stars, I absolutely would. I’ve actually been a dog sitter myself for many dogs over the years, so I know what I look for in someone caring for mine. This was my first time leaving my 14-year-old and 4-year-old dogs with someone who wasn’t a friend or family member, and I was also traveling internationally, so I was definitely a little nervous going into it. The second I met Eduardo, though, I immediately felt at ease. My dogs took to him right away, and from the very beginning it was obvious how attentive and detail-oriented he is. He asked thoughtful, specific questions about each dog—their routines, personalities, quirks, preferences, and what makes them comfortable. He genuinely cared about keeping their normal schedule and making their time with him feel as familiar and stress-free as possible. Our dogs are relatively easy, but one does have some anxiety, especially during storms, and Eduardo handled him wonderfully. What impressed me most was how well he seemed to understand both of their individual personalities in such a short amount of time. He didn’t just make sure they were fed, walked, and taken care of—he genuinely spent time with them, engaged with them, and made them feel comfortable and loved. And the updates were AMAZING. They were detailed, thoughtful, funny, and came with the best pictures. With every update, I felt like I was getting a little glimpse into their day rather than just receiving the standard “dogs are good!” message. You could genuinely see how happy and relaxed they were in every photo. He picked up on all of their little nuances and personality traits, and somehow managed to capture them perfectly. Even while I was thousands of miles away, I still felt completely connected to what they were doing and how they were feeling. Funny enough, my husband and I were on two separate trips that weekend, and both of our groups had friends who also had dogs at home with pet sitters. We were each sharing Eduardo’s updates with our respective groups, and EVERYONE was blown away by him—especially compared with the updates they were receiving from their own sitters! By the end of the weekend, Eduardo had basically developed a fan club of people who had never even met him. 😂 He was also incredibly respectful of our home. We came back to everything exactly as we had left it and, most importantly, to two very happy, relaxed dogs who clearly had an amazing weekend themselves. There is such a huge difference between finding someone who will simply take care of your pets and finding someone who makes you feel completely comfortable being away from them. Eduardo is absolutely the latter. The peace of mind he gave us was invaluable, and I never once worried about whether our dogs were safe, happy, or getting enough attention. I would recommend Eduardo 100 times over. He is attentive, trustworthy, communicative, responsible, kind, and clearly genuinely loves the animals he cares for. We feel incredibly lucky to have found him and will absolutely be booking him again. Anyone who gets Eduardo as their sitter—and any pet who gets to spend time with him—is incredibly lucky!

Erika was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. She stayed with them at my apartment for several days. My Lhasa Apso is a subborn pain in the butt that isn’t comfortable with being left with strangers. But Erica won him over!! My other baby is a pug mix with diabetes. She lost her site due to the diabetes as well. She gets insulin injections twice per day along with a couple diff eye drops. It’s crucial that she gets her medication’s at exactly 12 hours apart every single day. She can’t be late and she can’t miss a dosage. She made sure to stay on top of it every single day. She sent me pictures and videos several times a day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my babies than Erika. I have been in Florida for 5 1/2 years and I finally found someone to take care of them when I want to leave to see my kids out of state and not feel stressed or worried about their care 💕🙌 I highly recommend

Shay was a pleasure to meet. Very personable and friendly from the moment I met her. I have two dogs that can be a bit timid, and nervous with new people. She has a nice calming spirit about her and they both took to her quickly. I appreciate all the pictures and detailed updates she sent. She left the house, looking great and emptied the trash and made sure the boys had water. Everything was perfect! I will definitely book with her again whenever she’s available. She was very responsive from when I first contacted her through the whole booking. Thank you the boys loved you!

FAQs for House Sitting - Briny Breezes

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Briny Breezes is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $56 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.

As of October 2026, there are 2,904 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Briny Breezes. 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 Briny Breezes 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 Briny Breezes 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 Briny Breezes 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.
