Melissa goes above and beyond. I was so nervous to leave my dogs but she quickly eased my anxiety. Melissa communicated with me during each visit, shared photos and my boys were happy in each one. I couldn’t be happier and will highly recommend her.

Bethany is a great choice to care for your dog. We have a young puppy that's still learning to be house broken. As well as nipping and grabbing everything in sight. She took on the challenge for a weekend. We got amazing feed back and updates throughout. We returned and could tell our puppy was well taken care of and happy.

My Yorkie is a rescue and he has stress/anxiety and separation issues. I had him only a few months when I began having Sarilyne coming to my house while I was working. Sarilyne was able to establish trust and security to my dog immediately. She is a very sweet, kind and patient and punctual person who I trust to come into my home to care for dog.

Ariana and Rapheal were fantastic. They took such good care of our puppies. I was happy to see how my dogs accepted them and enjoyed their company. I appreciate the time they took to play with them and givevthem the necessary snuggles they needed while we were gone.

About: Thank you for considering me to take care of your pet/ house sitting needs. As a long time caregiver and homemaker, my compassion for quality care comes naturally. I have been a dog lover and owner all my life. With decades of experience with a variety of breeds from Miniature Poodles to Great Danes. Potty trained well behaved dogs preferred. I know how challenging it can be to trust someone to help with caring for your property and pets, I will do my best to provide top notch services. I have two female spayed dogs. One miniature Dachshund, and a rescued Husky mix. They are friendly and get along with most well behaved dogs. My current schedule is open most days, unless I am traveling. I have flexible availability to meet your needs. Most bookings are confirmed immediately or within 24 hours I have a fully fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. There is plenty of space for outdoor playtime and completely dog friendly indoors. Space is available for crating

About: As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, medication reminders, or simply extra attention and affection, I will care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. I am an elementary school teacher currently enjoying summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. During the school year, I am available after 3:30 p.m., as well as on weekends and school holidays. I am dependable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets are treated like family. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to keep your pet happy, safe, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind when you're away.

About: I have had animals my whole life! I love dogs and cats! I have my own 5 year old Golden Retriever who has received 3 AKC Good Citizen Certifications. I love taking pups on walks! I am working full time currently so not as open as I would like to be, but may be leaving my job soon to finish school online so my schedule might be opening up a lot! I make sure the dogs are given as much attention as they need and are not left to their own devices to get into trouble as we know our pets love to do! A safe and healthy environment for play and learning is top priority in working with animals.

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs for over 15 years now. I currently have a frenchie named Arnold who is 5 years old. I’m very gentle with dogs and spoil them a lot. I’ll be able to give full attention to your dogs and keep them on their standard food schedule and potty schedule. I’ll take them for walks and play fetch. Dogs are allowed to be on furniture if its something they are allowed to do at their house. I will follow all the rules given to me and will make sure to keep your fur baby happy. I’ll keep you updated with some cure selfies from your babies. Your baby will be in good hands. :) I have my own online business so I have a flexible schedule and can stay on track of your dogs routine so they feel comfortable. My frenchie walks around freely but I also have a crate if needed. They are allowed on furniture if that is what they prefer as well.

About: I have been trained by the Ventura county animal shelter to work with all types of fuzzy friends! I have two dogs and a kitty and have a deep passion for animal work outside of my 9-5 working in tech! I am currently unemployed and have a lot of flexibility to watch your fur babies! I am currently unemployed and dedicating my free time to Rover! This allows me to spend 1:1 time while still continuing my everyday duties. Cleanliness is key for any pet whether it is in my home or your home! Being a fellow pet parent, having your pets feel the most comfortable is a great feeling when you are out of the home. This is something I ensure for any pet that I take care of.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Cape Canaveral on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,269 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cape Canaveral. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cape Canaveral stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Cape Canaveral 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Cape Canaveral with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
