About: Lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior companions. I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet like my own. I’m also experienced with administering medications and trained in pet CPR, so your pets are in capable hands in case of emergencies. My home includes cats, birds, and lizards, giving me experience with a wide range of animal needs and personalities. Whether it’s daily care, special instructions, or emergency readiness, I’m here to keep your pets safe, happy, and loved. I work from home so I am able to bring my laptop with me and work while taking care of the animal as well as stopping by to let the animal out and can even give animals baths or do anything that’s necessary that the animal may need In my home, animals have a well taken care of diet. They do have a lot of activities they can do in the house as well as outside to make sure that they are well properly taken care of my reptiles are all loved to make sure they get the best protein as well as the best Care every day and even get outside time themselves to make sure that they get plenty of sun and vitamins.
“My 3 dogs were taken care of for 2 weeks at my home and they were all fine and no issues with escaping. One of them realized she could jump my fence right before I left but there was no escaping when I was gone because she kept the doors locked. My dog checks! She handled them and I had peace of mind.”
“Lorianne was absolutely incredible with our pets! Our dog is very timid and wary of strangers, but he absolutely loved her! She sent pictures and updates regularly, and we felt very safe with her :)”

About: I have had many dogs since I was born and have owned many animals including hamsters and snakes. I have treated minor illnesses in dogs before and know multiple emergency vet offices nearby. I am comfortable giving medicines and keeping strict routines and diets. I excel in reading animal body language and understanding and avoiding triggers. I attend College classes Mondays and Wednesdays. I also have a part-time job that I work Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I usually wake up around 7:30 and have a relaxing morning to myself. I spend my free time at home doing school work and hanging out with my dog and cat. I have a 3/4 acre lot with a six foot chain link fence. I have a Shar-pei American Bulldog mix and a Domestic Shorthair cat, both do well with other animals and can be contained if the need arises. Animals get fed twice a day, 1/2 a cup each morning and evening for the puppy and 1/4 cup each morning and evening for the kitty. The animals are let out freely as we have a screened in pool with a dog door. Toys are preferred but if your baby likes the dog park I know of many and am willing to go with them. Animals are not allowed on the furniture but can get plenty of snuggles on the floor!
About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and understand how animals behave on a expert level. I trained my now 6 year old dog on many tricks when he was a puppy and continue to teach him new things. I also took care of a 2 week old puppy for months about 1 year ago. Next year I will be going to college for a veterinarian career. I am free of responsibilities this summer but actively applying to part-time jobs. I have a car I can use to drive however many times a day for your buddy. Im not scared of pets but am very cautious. I let them get to know me and when they are comfortable I love playing with them. My dog is a big guy and can play very aggressively but that doesn’t make me neglect him, I just tone it down when he gets too excited. I also love teaching dogs new tricks if requested!
“Iloira was awesome with our old boy Jax. She took care of him overnight because he is too old to go on the long trip we took. He loves her and so do we. We will definitely use her again!!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years. I’ve been doing it regularly for going on two years. I use word of mouth, testimonials and social media to connect with clients I work 7:30am-3:30pm M-F so most of my care would take place before work, after work and on weekends. I can only stay in your home. I love to walk dogs but okay if you just want them in yard. 🙂 I like having dogs in bed but only if owner is comfortable with it. Never have guests. Don’t drink or smoke. Bring own food but love fizzy water and protein drinks if you’d be so kind to provide.
“Chaste was wonderful! She came over several times a day, like we requested and let our doggies out. We have cameras everywhere and we could see her playing fetch with our doggies, loving on them and making sure they were taking care of. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Jacqueline was great! The dogs loved her and she sent lots of updates. Our oldest dog struggles with anxiety and Jacqueline did an amazing job comforting her and helping her through the thunderstorm.”
“She’s amazing. From the meet and greets we had I knew she would be the one because of her caring attitude towards Chloe and the questions she asked us. Whilst we were away she bonded with Chloe which was awesome and she was reluctant to leave Chloe on her own for more than hour, which was her choice. She had great communication and updated us with texts and pics of Chloe throughout the day for the duration of her stay. She left our house in tip top shape exactly as she had found it which was an added bonus. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and we will definitely be repeat customers.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Pierce South
I’ve used Krista for drop-ins before, but this was her first time staying overnight with the dogs — and she did a great job. She was communicative, dependable, and kept me updated, which gave me peace of mind. I have a senior dog who needs special care and she did wonderful. Looking forward to using Krista again! 🐾
Very happy to have found Janet. She has a nice soft way with our dog and cat. She communicated with us extremely well and we were very happy with the overnight house sitting she did for us. We will definetly be using Janet again when we figure out our next adventure.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fort Pierce South
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Pierce South on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 521 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Pierce South. 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 Fort Pierce South 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 Fort Pierce South 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 Fort Pierce South 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
