“Eryn is sweet and professional and clearly an animal lover. To be honest, she’s one of the only cat-sitters we’ve had who not only stayed the full amount of time, but provided a detailed description of the visit. Not only is she good with animals, she takes pride in her work, and stands out for it. I will definitely be using Eryn again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)
About: I have personal experience with two dogs (Sunny and Roland) and a cat (Loki). Additionally, I have taken care of the pets of family and friends for years without complaint. I have worked as a dog sitter/walker for over 5 years now, and 3 of those on Rover. Unless my employment status changes, I am available 24/7 over summer, winter, fall, and spring breaks. My time is also very flexible and I don’t mind if I need to work at odd hours. I try to be as gentle and friendly as possible towards pets and will do more than the bare minimum when it comes to exercise and entertainment. I also have experience with cleaning up all kinds of potential messes.
“Our dog was having a shy moment during Savana’s drop-in and wouldn’t go outside at first. Savana went above and beyond by coming back later and making sure our dog got out to potty. She takes great care of our dog!”
“Vicky did an awesome job caring for Bruce. She was in communication with me and sent great pictures so I had complete peace of mind. I think Bruce really liked Vicky and the feeling was mutual. I highly recommend Vicky to care for your fur baby.”
“Meghan took such great care of our cat and fish while we were away for a week. It was the first time she has sat for us and we are very happy with how it went. She gave thorough updates and sent lots of pictures which we really appreciated. She spent time giving our cat extra attention and affection which was such a comfort to us. She successfully got him to take his pills and liquid medication which can be a challenge sometimes. She definitely has good attention to detail and noticed that he had a preference for one flavor of food and ate it with the medication more easily, something we hadn’t even noticed! She followed all our directions perfectly and is a great communicator. She really put us at ease and we would definitely have her sit for us again! Thanks so much Meghan!!”
“Julie was the absolute the best! She went beyond and so much for our Crumpet. Kept in good contact the whole time and was there for us on short notice and on the holiday. Julie is the best! Will definitely use her service again, and recommend her to everyone!”
About: I have been an avid animal lover and caregiver for as long as I can remember! I have experience with hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, hermit crabs, puppies/dog/senior dogs, kittens/cats/senior cats, and birds! I work part-time so I have plenty of availability for check-ins, walks, and feeding times! I have control over my schedule, which allows for a lot of flexibility! I prioritize taking / dedicating all the time that is needed/wanted to spend with your pet/s, no matter the task! Your pet's comfortability and safety is the top priority, always!
About: Hi there! My name is Madeline, and I would love to hear from you about your furry friend. I grew up surrounded by horses, dogs, and cats alike on farms across the Hudson Valley, which instilled a love for animals within me at a very young age. I understand that each client and animal requires an individualized approach. I am more than willing to listen to your desires and make adjustments to accommodate them to the best of my ability. I would consider myself quite the outdoorsy person, which makes me a great candidate to spend time with your animals. I am more than willing to answer any questions that you may have for me, and I look forward to hearing from you. I enjoy spending time with animals and ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, and affection. I plan my schedule to be sure every pet gets the care they need, whether it's walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following the owner's instructions carefully and maintaining their normal routine. I give pets plenty of love, attention, and positive interaction while respecting their individual personalities and needs.
“I wish I could give Alexis more than 5 stars!!! I contacted Alexis last minute about day care for my two German shepherds, plans quickly changed because of my one of dogs health and she didn’t hesitate to offer to come to my house instead. My dog had an accident in my house and she thoroughly cleaned up after him. Alexis goes above and beyond for her clients and their pets from quick response times to genuinely caring for your pet. Keep up the great work and I look forward to booking again with you soon!”

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Florida on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Florida. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
