About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets for years, and I treat each one like they’re my own. I love all dogs. I’ve done walks, feeding, meds, and lots of playtime. I’ve worked with puppies and older pets who need extra care. I focus on each pet’s personality and routines, and I always send lots of photos so you know they’re happy and safe. I am exceptionally clean and I have a very high attention to detail. I have two college classes Monday through Thursday, each lasting a couple of hours. Outside of class, I’m free to help take care of pets. When I’m at a client’s home, I make sure the pets are safe and comfortable. I follow their instructions for feeding, exercise, or anything else they need. I watch them carefully and keep their space clean so they’re happy and safe. I’m a huge animal lover and enjoy spending time with them.

I am a second year at Florida Atlantic University, majoring in elementary education. As a pet lover, I would love to take any dog, big or small, on walks or sit for you. When home for breaks, I work as a gymnastics coach for ages 3-14, teaching me skills of responsibility and organization. Furthermore, I would love to help out and care for your dog. Im currently enrolled at Florida Atlantic University, so i have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. All other days unless marked on my calendar I am available I cannot do boarding, however while walking, daycare, or house sitting at clients homes, I will have my full attention on your pet, following any specific instructions given.
“Roberta has been absolutely fantastic! You can tell she is a true dog lover from the first moment she met our pups. She has been a perfect fit for helping us during a busy time—always professional and consistently on time. We especially love that she sends regular updates and videos, which gives us such peace of mind. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and highly recommend booking her!”

“Jamil watched our house and three dogs over an extended weekend, and she was fantastic! My three pups loved her, and she was especially great with my senior pup, who I'm always overly concerned about. Jamil communicated throughout the entire weekend and sent lots of adorable pictures. I highly recommend Jamil to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”

“We were very pleased with Rowan caring for Charlie. She stayed in our home and watched our elderly pup while we traveled for a week. She was able to follow his specific needs and everything went smoothly. Our home was immaculate and Charlie was happy when we returned.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and animal enthusiast, caring for our furry companions has been a passion of mine since childhood. I have dedicated countless hours to understanding the unique needs and behaviors of dogs, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to help every pet live their happiest and healthiest life, and I strive to create a nurturing environment where they can thrive. What Sets Me Apart Unwavering Commitment: Caring for pets is not just a job for me; it's a calling. I approach each pet with the same level of dedication and love as if they were my own. My commitment to their well-being is unwavering, and I go above and beyond to ensure their needs are met. Extensive Experience: With a lifetime of experience working with dogs, I have developed a deep understanding of their behaviors, body language, and individual quirks. This knowledge allows me to provide personalized care tailored to each pet's unique personality and requirements. Puppy Training Expertise: While not a professional trainer, I have extensive experience in training puppies. I understand the importance of early socialization, positive reinforcement, and consistent guidance. I can help your furry friend develop good habits and manners from an early age, setting them up for success in their adult life. Reactive Dog Management: I have worked with reactive dogs and understand the challenges they face. With patience, empathy, and techniques, I can help manage their reactions and create a calm, stress-free environment for them. Attention to Detail: I pride myself on being attentive to the smallest details when caring for pets. From monitoring their eating habits and exercise routines to recognizing subtle changes in their behavior, I leave no stone unturned to ensure their well-being. Compassionate Nature: Pets are not just animals to me; they are family members deserving of love, respect, and compassion. I treat each pet with the utmost kindness and gentleness, creating a safe and nurturing environment where they can feel secure and loved. With my extensive experience, specialized skills, and genuine love for animals, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your furry companions. Whether you need a trustworthy pet sitter, a knowledgeable dog walker, or a dedicated companion for your furry friend, I am committed to ensuring their happiness and well-being every step of the way. Incorporating pet care into my daily routine can be seamless and rewarding since i have the flexibility of studying from home. My schedule is very open and flexible When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, the approach varies depending on the service offered.. Pet Boarding in my home * Provide a safe, secure environment with a fenced yard for playtime and exercise. * Utilize crates if needed for the visiting pet's comfort and safety. * Ensure my resident pets are friendly and properly introduce them to the boarding pet. * Offer plenty of attention, playtime, and socialization for all pets. Dog Walking Services Prioritize the safety and well-being of the client's dog during walks. Maintain control with a secure leash and harness. Plan engaging routes with opportunities for sniffing, exploration, and potty breaks. Provide water and rest stops as needed, especially in warm weather. Capture photos or videos to share with the owner, offering peace of mind. In-Home Pet Sitting Follow the client's instructions for feeding, medication administration, and any special needs. Provide ample playtime, exercise, and affection to keep the pet stimulated and content. Maintain a clean environment by scooping litter boxes and picking up after the pet. Secure the home by locking doors and windows before leaving. Communicate regularly with the owner about the pet's well-being and any concerns. Regardless of the service, my dedication to providing a safe, fun environment and following best practices will ensure exceptional care for every pet entrusted to me.

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. I’ve had a dog for 12 years and counting and I’ve been running a small dog walking/sitting job over the summer but id like to expand and do something while I’m in college. I can work almost any day of the week as long as I’m not in class. Fridays and weekends I can work longer. I work part time while I’ll be in college. I’ve been doing a small business where I drop in at peoples houses or stay overnight and they trust me to do so. I can also pick your dog up to go to the park.

About: My love for animals started at home, where my dad often surprised us with a new pet. Growing up around animals with different personalities taught me to be patient, observant and attentive to their individual needs. I enjoy getting to know each pet, whether they’re playful and outgoing or need a little time to feel comfortable. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, cared for and loved while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. Pet care is my job! I schedule my time around my best friend. I always make sure I have time to take care of any animals! I would prefer to pet sit in the clients home. It really depends on which services I will be providing, although I am comfortable with anything.
About: 🐶 Hi, I’m Denise — Your Pet’s New Favorite Human Animals aren’t just something I care for — they’re part of my world. I’ve lived with dogs, cats, chickens, and even rescue bunnies, and I understand that every animal has a unique personality and comfort level. I take my time, let them set the pace, and give them affection, patience, and presence. 💻 I Work From Home — Your Pets Get Full Attention Because I work remotely, I’m home with your pets most of the day. That means: Consistent company and supervision No long stretches alone Plenty of walks, playtime, or lap time Your pet becomes my “co-worker,” and I couldn’t ask for better company. I maintain a flexible schedule for multiple breaks throughout the day and evening. I love long walks, throwing the ball or just cuddles while watching TV. I truly love animals and would treat your precious one as if they were my own.
About: I recently left my full-time career in the film industry to become a dog-walker/sitter. In addition to taking care of dogs, I’m currently working on a screenplay whilst working remotely (part-time) as an advocate for a non-profit that provides virtual trainings in prevention of child abuse. My life has become infinitely more rewarding since switching careers as serving the vulnerable has always been a longing of mine. For all my life, I’ve either always had my own dogs or taken care of other people’s dogs. I can feed, bathe, walk and most importantly love on any dog brought into this world. I am known by friends, family and even mere acquaintances for being trustworthy, reliable and nurturing - my heart is my biggest asset! I have an incredibly flexible schedule, including part-time remote work, which means that I don’t need to travel or be out of the house for very long! At the same time, I love walking and being outdoors too so my personal routine is absolutely catered to taking care of a pet! I live in a dog-friendly area next to many parks and I am able to cater to boarding dogs inside my home with plenty of space for crates, beds, toys etc! Depending on the client’s preference, I welcome dogs to sleep in my bed but I honor individual needs and I am flexible and accommodating to all! I currently have no pets or children so there is no concern for the well-being of any dog in my home.
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, and today I share my home with three adopted pups, each with their own personality. One of them is reactive, so I know firsthand how important it is to read a dog’s body language, respect their boundaries, and never push them past their comfort zone. That experience has made me a calmer, more patient, and more observant sitter. What that means for your dog: -I take introductions slowly and let your dog set the pace. -I pay close attention to stress signals and adjust before things escalate. -I’m comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and reactive dogs, not just the easy ones. -I follow your routine, feeding schedule, and any rules you have. As a multi-dog household, I’m used to the daily rhythm of walks, meals, play, and downtime. I’ll send photo and video updates so you know your dog is happy and safe. I’d love to set up a meet and greet so your dog and I can get to know each other. Message me with your dog’s name, age, and any quirks or needs, and I’ll let you know how I can help! I have a flexible schedule and am home during the day, so I can offer midday walks, drop-ins, and last-minute availability. I'm available 7 days a week. I only provide care in my clients’ homes, so your dog stays in their familiar environment and routine. I start with a meet and greet so your dog can get comfortable with me, and I’ll go over their feeding, medication, walking routine, and any house rules or quirks before I start. Safety is my priority on every visit. I keep dogs on a secure leash and well-fitted harness or collar, stay alert to my surroundings, and avoid situations that could be stressful for your dog. Because I have a reactive dog of my own, I’m very aware of body language and keep a safe distance from other dogs when needed. I never leave a dog unattended outside or let them off leash unless you’ve specifically approved it. I’ll always lock up and leave your home exactly as I found it, and I’ll send photo and video updates after each visit so you know how it went. If anything unexpected comes up, like a health concern or a change in behavior, I’ll contact you right away and follow your instructions.
About: Let me ease your mind and bring comfort to your pets when you travel! I have experience pet and house sitting for 20+ years in the Louisville, Kentucky, area. For the last 3 years, I have been house sitting full time across the country and in the UK. I am great with dogs and cats. I'm accustomed to watering plants, taking the trash out, and generally keeping a home safe and secure. While I am fairly new to Rover, I can provide references upon request. I also do house and pet sitting through Trusted Housesitters (I only mention that because I have 44+ 5-Star reviews with them ... I've included a couple of screenshots in my photos). Incidentally, if you hire me as a house sitter, the rate includes normal pet care. I turned 67 in February, so your pets will get a lot of my undivided attention, especially if I'm house-sitting for you. I'm pretty much a homebody, though I do very much enjoy walking everyday, especially with canine friends! I will care for your pets in your home in a manner in which they are accustomed. I try to adapt my schedule and routine around theirs as much as possible. I have experience with elderly and special needs pets and can administer medications if needed.
About: I have always had a family dog or two, so I have always been around dogs from a baby and I know how to handle and care for them. I also have taken care of neighbors’ and friends’ dogs while the owners were traveling I am currently a college student. Walking dogs would fit perfectly in my schedule because I have multiple gaps throughout the day when I could check on the pups. I can perform the usual tasks of feeding, watering and walking dogs. I also understand the importance of picking up after your dog. And I am great with giving dogs lots of love and affection.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family that cared for exotic pets, which provided me the opportunity to learn how to connect with various animals from an early age. Over the years, I’ve worked as a farm aide at Turtle Back Zoo in New Jersey, volunteered with animal shelters, and cared for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family. These experiences have taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs—and I genuinely enjoy getting to know them. Today, I’m the proud pawrent of Marlo, my 5-year-old Australian Shepherd, and Nala, my 12-year-old cat. I even prepare fresh food for all of Marlo’s meals. Caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy, it’s a big part of who I am. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or simply someone trustworthy to keep them comfortable while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. I'm a full-time remote employee with a relatively flexible schedule, which allows me to spend individualized time with your pets during most weekdays and nights. Additionally, I am free most weekends for an assortment of care options. Each pet is unique and requires a different type of care. I fully abide by whatever your preferences are for care in your home. Being attentive to the basics (food, water, toys, treats, etc.), but also body language is very important to me. Making sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you're away is key to a successful caregiver relationship.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Delray Beach
Courtney was amazing as always! This was our second time having her watch Sammi and Luna, and we couldn’t be happier. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in good hands and that we don’t have to worry while traveling. We’re so glad we were able to book her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Tori was absolutely wonderful! She was professional, kind, and provided me with daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while she was watching my fur babies. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my animals and treated them like her own. Every picture she sent, they looked so happy and were even smiling! I would definitely book with Tori again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter.

Corey was great with our 8 week old golden retriever! We needed a last minute sitter while my fiancé and I completed wedding planning. She was very responsive planning out the day and during the day she sent so many pictures of them playing. We highly recommend Corey!

Jaclyn is wonderful! We recommend her highly and without reservation. She watched our two dogs, a bullmastiff and a lab mix, and she exceeded our expectations. Our dogs bonded with her instantly, she was attentive to all their needs, and she kept us updated daily with photos and stories. Perfect!

Jane was absolutely phenomenal, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the moment we left for vacation, she kept in touch with us every single day, sending pictures and videos that gave us so much comfort and peace of mind. Our dog, Piper, is a very special girl and takes a few daily medications. Jane was incredibly attentive and made sure Piper stayed on her regular schedule the entire time. Knowing that Piper was receiving such loving, responsible care allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. Not only did she take amazing care of Piper, but she also kept our home clean and treated everything with respect. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, professional, reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. We are so grateful for everything Jane did. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girl and giving us the peace of mind to enjoy our time away. We will absolutely be booking with her again

Alicia was so kind and caring for my elderly pet. She went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable, gave him a bath, hand fed him breakfast and dinner, and cared for him as I would (which included doing laundry after accidents that happen at his age). She is sweet and keeps in touch, sending lots of pictures and updates. I felt my pet was in good hands for my entire trip, I couldn't be more thankful to come home to a happy calm little doggo. She is the best :)

This is my fourth time hiring Yanela for overnight stays to watch Rosco (dog) and Bongo (bird) while I'm away on business. There's a reason I keep going back, and there's not enough space to even describe how amazing she is. She's a true animal lover and treats every pet as her own. I just wanted a set of eyes on my pets, but she takes Rosco everywhere! She takes him for walks, goes to parks, watches movies, and takes naps with him in the hammock. Rosco is treated like a spoiled rock star! She constantly sends pics or videos, so you'll always know your pets are in good hands and doing great. She also sends pics when she arrives, when they're fed, and when they're put to bed. I have a housekeeper, so I told Yanela to leave the bed unmade, but she makes it up beautifully and leaves everything spotless. You won't even know she was there. She is perfect beyond belief, and if you hire her one time, you'll understand. If there's anything negative to say, I think Rosco is starting to like her more than me! He's always so thrilled to see his "Aunt Yanela," and that means I can leave with total confidence that everything will be handled with great care. Rosco says "woof," which I think is Chihuahua for "thank you so much for a super fun weekend and taking great care of me!" He's looking forward to seeing her again in April. So, if you just need a sitter, you can probably find many good ones on Rover.com But if you need someone who shines brighter than all, who's super responsible, and who will treat your pets with the utmost care, attention, and love, Yanela is your five-star choice!

Carolina was amazing with my girl Tikka! My cat is a true Velcro kitty and Carolina embraced it and spent so much time with Tikka, giving her all the attention, cuddles, and play time she needed while I was away. So happy to have found an amazing and reliable cat sitter! Carolina is super responsive, sent lots of pics and updates, and left the apartment in the great condition. Can’t wait to book again for my next trip away!

FAQs for House Sitting - Delray Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Delray Beach is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $111 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 November 2026, there are 3,155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Delray 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 Delray 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 Delray 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 Delray 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 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Delray Beach. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
