About: Hi! I’m Margot, a dependable animal lover based in Vero Beach. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or just keeping each other company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry family!
About: I have a dog of my own he is very energetic and loves to play which is my favorite thing about him. I love him like he’s my child and i’ll love your dogs the same!!! I have absolutely nothing during the day other then loving your pups and I work most nights from only 4-9! I am open to getting shifts covered if necessary! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and keeping their space clean. In a client’s home, I also respect their house rules and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I give pets plenty of attention and patience so they feel comfortable and cared for in their own environment!!
About: Though I do not have a yard, I do understand the importance of daily activity (especially for dogs) and in regards to that, I live in close proximity to two dog parks. Growing up around different animals, I’ve grown fond, familiar, and comfortable with caring for different species (from rodents to felines and canines and pretty much anything in between). I am looking to make extra money and gain experience with different breeds of animals, as I am planning to embark on a journey into veterinary school. I love all animals and believe wholly in treating and caring for them correctly. I’ve had cats, dogs, rodents (gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs) , ferrets, birds, reptiles (leopard geckos and turtles), and rabbits just to name a few. I’m always willing to go the extra mile for an animal (whether it’s my pet or not) and I get along with practically any animal and fully believe in building a strong bond with pets.
“Gemar was fantastic. Communication was quick and clear, and followed all instructions perfectly. Both of my dogs were well-fed, cared for, and genuinely happy when I got home. Gemar handled everything smoothly and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in great hands. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”
“Kristina was exceptional with my fur babies. What started as a 2 day drop in visits turned in to 2 1/2 weeks. She was great in adjusting to my situation. Would highly recommend Kristina and look forward to booking with her again.”
“Shelly was amazing! She watched our 3 cats while we were away. She also kept up with the house and litter which was amazing because my house didn’t smell like a giant litter box when we came home. Everything was clean and fresh! Will absolutely be contacting her for future trips! Thank you so much Shelly!!”
“Robert was super friendly and a great fit for our fury friends. He came by in the middle of a storm to help walk feed and cleanup behind our pets before we were able to make it back in town. Will definitely be needing him again soon.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, fish, turtles (you name it!) for over 10 years. Starting with neighbors and family pets and continuing through friends and referrals. I’m very attentive, responsible, and calm, which helps dogs, and all animals, feel safe and comfortable around me. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I always follow care instructions closely, whether that includes feeding schedules, medications, long walks, or extra cuddle time. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel fully at ease while they’re away. I work from home full-time as a software engineer, so I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent supervision and attention. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods. My flexible schedule allows for regular walks, playtime, feeding routines, and plenty of companionship. I’m available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate most schedules with advance notice. I provide pet care exclusively in the client's home, including overnight stays. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and companionship, all while keeping their space clean and secure. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and settled in their own environment — sticking to their normal routine, favorite spots, and feeding schedule so there's minimal disruption to their day. Since I work from home, I'm able to offer flexible visit times and overnight care as needed, giving pets consistent attention and a calm routine around the clock
About: I have been dog sitting and housesitting for around 7 years now and am a runner who can help you keep your dog well exercised! I work 2-11pm Thursdays-Mondays so I am available in the mornings when most people need someone to check in on their pups. I can do walks, runs or check-ins😁 I have always loved dogs and couldn't imagine not treating them like they are my own. Whether that be playing, feeding and/or taking them on walks, I am here for it!
About: Hi! I’m Amanda, a local twin mom living in Hobe Sound and a lifelong animal lover. I know how hard it is to leave your pets behind when you’re traveling or working long hours. As the proud owner of two huskies and multiple rescue pets over the years, I understand that pets aren’t “just animals” they’re family. I have experience with energetic breeds, senior pets, medication routines, feeding schedules, and all the little quirks that make every pet unique. As a mom of twins, organization, communication, and multitasking are basically my superpowers. You can expect reliable care, frequent updates, photos, and lots of love while you’re away. Whether your pet wants a long walk, a game of fetch, belly rubs, or simply a calm companion, I’m happy to provide care tailored to their needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! As a stay at home mother and wife with kids in school, my days are open and free to care for your furry family members! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have two friendly huskies of my own and understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules to ensure consistency while you’re away. I can crate your pet if requested and will always provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and supervision. I also send regular photo updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
About: My love for dogs isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifelong commitment. For the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for countless dogs for friends and neighbors, treating each one with the same love and dedication I give my own. They are truly the best and I pour out that genuine affection in every moment I spend with them. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time available to share with your pup! I am a very active person with high energy ready to go. I have a fenced yard, love to walk and have a small friendly elder dog to keep your fur baby company if they are at my house. We will follow whatever your normal routine is to make sure they feel the best they can without you.
About: My experience with animals began in 2020 when I volunteered with the Humane Society in Palm City. During my time there, I received hands-on training in proper dog walking and handling, as well as learning to recognize animal behavior and body language. I later worked at a doggy hotel, where I gained extensive hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, playing, supervising, and safely handling pets throughout the day. I also have experience administering oral medications and following individual care instructions. These experiences have given me the confidence to care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My work schedule changes from week to week, so my availability can vary. I’m happy to communicate my availability in advance and work with you to find times that fit your pet’s needs. I’ll always make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve before accepting a booking. My experience with animals goes beyond being a pet owner. During my volunteer time with the Humane Society, I received training in proper dog walking and handling, as well as recognizing and understanding animal behavior and body language. I’ve also worked at a doggy hotel, where I spent hours caring for dogs and cats through cleaning, feeding, playing, supervising, and hands-on handling. I have experience administering oral medications and understand the importance of following instructions carefully. These experiences have taught me how to safely care for animals with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ll treat every pet in my care with patience, attention, and compassion.
About: In addition to being a pet owner, I also worked at an animal shelter where I received specialized training on animal behavior. My friends and family have trusted me with their pets for 10+ years and I love working with dogs and cats. I’m currently working Monday-Friday until 3 or 4, but I have plenty of time in the evenings to go on walks, runs, and check in with your pets. I’m also free on weekends! I’m happy to stay close to home if that’s what your pet prefers, but I also have an SUV to take them to the beach, the dog park, or on a nice long walk. Unless we’re in a fenced in area, your pet will stay leashed while we run and play together!
About: I have had cats for 15 years and I have also taken care of My friends with catsThe last thing I want is for someone to do some thing they love so much I work graveyard shifts so I have the whole entire day to take care of the cats play with them and make sure they are loved I do have a fenced in yard but I prefer keeping the cats inside The last thing I want is for someone to do some thing they love so much

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Pierce
Olyssia was amazing with both of my dogs! One is very protective and can be aggressive with new people, but he ended up loving her. My other dog is super friendly and loves everyone, and he was just as happy and well cared for. I got updates for each visit and knew they were in good hands. I would 100% recommend Olyssia and will definitely be booking again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Pierce stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Fort Pierce 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.

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

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.
