“I am so happy I found Erica on Rover. She was such a good pet sitter for my 3 French bulldogs. I came home to 3 happy doggies! Erica also left great notes and pictures for me to review after each visit. Her response to any question or comment I had was fast and easy. Her sunny disposition makes her a pleasure to work with and I felt so happy knowing she was taking care of the frenchies. Thank you Erica for the treat you left the dogs. You’re so sweet. I will be reaching out to Erica for my next pet sitting request 10/10!!!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina was an incredible sitter for my cat, Monkey! She watched with her for several days and truly went above and beyond to make sure she was happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. Monkey can be a little aloof at first, but she warmed up to Sabrina right away — which says everything! I could tell she was getting tons of love, playtime, and attention. I received daily updates and photos, which kept me completely at ease while I was away. Every message showed how attentive and thoughtful Sabrina was — from making sure Monkey got her favorite toys and cozy spots, to spending real quality time with her. It felt like Monkey had her own vacation while I was on mine! 😹 Sabrina is friendly, responsible, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I felt 100% confident and relaxed knowing she was watching over Monkey. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking her again. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like their own, Sabrina is the one. Highly recommend! 🐾♥️”
“Kate-Lynn is responsive and responsible, Lala loved being with her. She was willing to meet with Lala and I before our booking to make sure we were both comfortable. Definitely hope to be able to book again. Thank you Kate-Lynn!”
“Pamela arrived in the mornings just as I asked. She sent photos and asked who was who. Her genuine interest in my cats assured me they were in good hands. I will definitely request her services again. She’s good to my kitties and friendly with me. I like Pamela, she’s good people”
“Heather is an OUTSTANDING dog caregiver. She took impeccable care of Sophie. She showed up on time, took her on nice long walks and played with my sweet girl. I never worry when Heather is taking care of Sophie. She is always my go to caregiver when I travel.”
About: I provide consistent, reliable care for every pet —feeding, playtime, walks, and cuddles — ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and completely loved while you’re away Pet care is part of my everyday life. I’m always home, so I’m ready to give pups attention, walks, and love whenever they need ! I care for pets like they’re part of my family. They enjoy safe play in my fenced yard and the company of my friendly dog
About: I’ve had dogs & have cared for dogs my whole life. I’ve never met a sweet happy tail that I didn’t want to pet or kiss! Their loyalty, love & faithfulness are boundless. The safety, security and companionship an animal provides is all consuming. People come & go but a dog’s love is forever. My experience with dogs is extensive as I’m regularly accustomed to playing, walking, bathing, brushing, cleaning up after & managing sometimes erratic behavior from my own two Maltese boys. Bathing, blow drying, brushing both fur & teeth & cleaning up accidents are my reality every week. I also possess the skill set to care for senior dogs with strict medication schedules, which I did regularly while in college. Apart from this; I have pet sit a litter of baby puppies over the years, beginning at 6 weeks of age. I’m currently available to work any weekdays & weekends. Monday - Friday & do not have any time restrictions. I would be available weekends as well. I’m available for dog walks & pet sit-ins. I have a fenced in yard at home for both of my dogs, but I am also very used to walking pets on a harness & leash to avoid any safety issues. I try to have a spare collar, harness, & leash in the back of my car in case anything unforeseen may arise.
“Gilchin is the best! My boys love her so much. She’s the sweetest and took such great care of my kitties! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and I always felt comfortable knowing they were with her. Definitely recommend everytime!”

“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were traveling for a few days. She clearly adores cats, and spared no effort to make sure they were loved & well cared for. We have some tricky care requirements, but she was able to handle them with grace. We look forward to working with her again!”
“Kennedy was amazing! She responded to me very quickly and was very apprehensive in understanding my Razr’s needs. He is an older dog and requires medication and plenty of love so Kennedy was the perfect fit for us. She sent us pictures and was very thorough on communication. Definitely would recommend her to even my closest family members.”

Once again we had Derek take care of our dogs. He did numerous drop in visits for several days. He was great with the dogs the communication was excellent. Feeding the dogs went great. He even took out my garbage to the curb on pickup day. We highly recommend Derek to take care of anyone’s pets.
Jena was fantastic with our girls, and so understanding of their needs! She is fantastic at communication back and forth as well as working with us and our schedule around her own. She gave us so much peace of mind knowing how good of hands our girls were in. Can't wait to book with Jena again! - Kourtney
Jennifer did an amazing job. I am so grateful to her for taking such good care of my dogs while I had to travel. She was on time, and spent time walking with the dogs and playing with them, not just the "basics". I highly recommend her and hope she'll be available the next time I need help with pet care for my dogs. : )
Juan has been a lifesaver for me!! I have a lot of four-legged kids - several of which have medical needs and need to be monitored and/or have medication administered multiple times a day. I could tell right away by meeting him that he was confident in his skills and could handle taking care of my kids when I travel. Highly recommend!!
Hannah is such a sweet young lady and so respectful and my little old man loves her. He's truly a handful with his continence issues and he did well for her, but she was very kind an accepting of him and all that comes with caring for an old dog. We are so appreciative of that kindness! We will be using Hannah again and again!

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 Coral 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 Coral 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.

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 Coral with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
