About: I’ve cared for animals all of my life. I have 2 years of experience working in a boarding facility, have volunteered at a local shelter, and have dog & cat sat for friends and family for years. I have a large friendly dog and a friendly cat who get along well with other dogs. As well, I have the free time to make sure that your dog gets the best care so that you can rest assured that they are in good hands. I’ve just moved to the area and am home to care for your dog through out the day. I take my dog out for walks every 2-3 hours starting around 8am every morning. I have plenty of space to walk the dog around, with open grassy areas. I am available through the entire day to attend to the dog. My dog is very friendly and loves to play, he is up to date on vaccines and his flea, tick and heart worm medications.
About: Hello! I’m Alex, and I’ve been a professional care taker for animals the last three years. Most of my experience has been with exotic animals, however over the past year I’ve been spending more time with cats and dogs. My other profession outside of rover is a Vet Assistant, so I’m always spending time with animals! I am currently working full time as a vet assistant, however I typically get off at 6pm and can do drop ins! Tuesday and Saturdays are my free days and I can provide more services. Safety is my top priority. Before taking care of your loved ones, we would discuss the best plan and guidelines for your pets to ensure the best care possible for them.
About: Growing up - we always had animals. I've always been very comfortable with animals and caring for them. I now currently have 3 pets - 2 dogs and my cat. I love and care for them like children. I work part time beachside and I am a mom but I have a pretty open schedule and I’ll do everything I can to make myself available for you. I will do my very best to stick to your’s and your pet’s routine - anything and everything for them ofcourse. Also in my home - I do have a fully fenced in back yard and a doggy door.

“Melissa did an absolutely incredible job of taking care of my fur babies while we were out of town for 3 days. She kept me well informed of how everyone was doing while we were gone. We’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Thank you for the drop in visit to take care of our sweet girl! It looks like she was motivated for a decent walk & ate most of her food (& both are accomplishments for our senior girl : ) )! We appreciate your detailed update!”
About: You could probably say I enjoy being around dogs more than most people. I consider dogs angels. I love to spoil them. My two girls are very spoiled. I have always had a dog.

“Cynthia was amazing with with our two dogs. The pictures she sent during every visit was very nice. Our kids loved seeing the updates on their staycation with her. The dogs were excited to see her and get some one on one time with her when she visited. We would recommend and would use her again for other trips we can’t bring our dogs to.”
About: Hi, I'm a caring and experienced pet lover offering dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they get plenty of love, attention, and exercise. Safety and your pet's happiness are my top priorities! Pet care can fit into your daily or weekly routine by setting specific times for feeding, walking, and playing. For example, I might feed your pet every morning and evening, walk them after work, and set aside time on weekends for longer play sessions. I will always make sure they have plenty of water and food, pets, walks, and play time before I leave. I will make sure they are set for when you come home
About: Growing up with two Golden Retrievers and two cats, I’ve gained hands-on experience in pet care and training. I’ve also provided pet sitting services for family and friends, caring for a variety of breeds including German Shepherds, Mini and Standard Australian Shepherds, Teacup Pomeranians, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. This diverse experience has equipped me to handle pets of different sizes, temperaments, and care needs. I recently graduated from FAU and moved to Indian Harbour Beach, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily fit pet care into my routine. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual feeding, play, and rest schedule. I’ll give them plenty of love and attention so you can feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away! I have ample time to dedicate to pet care. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain their familiar routines, offering companionship and attentive care to keep them happy and relaxed. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s needs, ensuring they receive the attention and affection they deserve.
About: I've grown up around animals my entire life and while I love them all, dogs hold a special place in my heart. Now in my adult life, owning a fur-baby (dog) myself, I truly understand the concern around finding someone to look after them while you're away and cannot bring them with. Because if we could bring them every where, we would, right!? :) I work from home full-time Monday thru Friday, which provides the flexibility to care for your fur-baby. I have several years of experience dog sitting, dog walking, and house sitting for family, friends, and colleagues. I would love to get to know your fur-baby and provide the best possible care for them! ** Unfortunately because of my own dog being reactive, I cannot board at this time. Since I work from home, I am able to provide your fur-baby the attention and care they need depending on their specific needs. I know dogs thrive on a consistent schedule and am happy to help maintain their normal routine while you're away from home. My top priority is make sure your fur-baby feels "at home" where ever they are. If they have a specific routine that we need to follow every day, I will adhere to them.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. Animal care, or animals in general have always been a major passion of mine. Neighbors and family friends have consistently relied on me for pet care whenever they’re heading out of town or are just gone for the day! I do have experience with a variety of different breeds (both cat and dog!) as well as many other reptiles, fish and birds. I will always meet any and all needs that may be required for your furry or scaly friends! It is my top priority to make sure your pets are safe, happy and well taken care of whenever needed 🙂! I am currently working part time while I am in school so my availability is pretty flexible 🤸! I am not available for boarding at the moment, however, I am open consistently throughout the week 😆! While in your home, I will make sure to adhere to and respect all rules and expectations given to me regarding your pets specific care as well as general house rules! Tell me to fly and I will 🚀, especially since you are trusting and welcoming me into your space to care for your babies! 🐾

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cocoa Beach
Kristen was great!! She was punctual, responsable, and so sweet with my labradors. She constantly checked in with me and made sure my dogs were well cared for. I felt at ease while out of town knowing that my dogs were in her care. She was even flexible when there was a delay on our way back home. I’m so thankful for Kristen and will definitely trust her with my dogs again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Cocoa Beach is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $29 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 1,190 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cocoa Beach. 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.
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 Cocoa 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!
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 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.
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.

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 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.
