About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family when they go on vacation. When I was in highschool I love dogs and cats I had a dog and 2 cats when I was younger. A yr ago I did work at the east coast estates in Melbourne I loved it because I love working with animals I also worked at a dog groomer in pineda causeway I gave the dogs bath and got them ready for the groomers.. I do work part time cleaning houses so I make my own schedule I don't mind dog sitting at the owners house if they want me to stay over night I will do that.. At clients home If they would let me know the times they want me to feed there pets if they walk the dogs or let them out if they have a fenced yard . I would do whatever the owner wants me to do
“I contacted Andrea last minute and she gladly accepted my ask to watch Tex. She sent me pictures during her visit and treated Tex (and my kitten Bama) like her own. She is trustworthy, kind, and hard-working. 5/5 recommend and I will be using her again.”

I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with energetic puppies as well as senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, baths, medications, cleaning up after pets, and keeping them company. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’ll do my best to keep their normal schedule so they feel right at home I currently work part-time at Domino’s, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care.

“Andrea did a wonderful job staying very attentive to my struggling pooch. She gave her lots of love and made sure she stayed safe. She administered her meds on time and fed her appropriately. She also sent me updates and photos along the way. My dog had a very rough past couple days and Andrea helped her get back to good health while I was at work. She also responded to my last minute request quickly. Can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Kenzi was absolutely amazing! Poppy and Biscuit were definitely loved while I was away and she gave plenty of updates on their activities. She left my house spotless and I will 100% be reaching out again any time I’m away and can’t take the fur babies with me.”
“Conscientious and caring dog sitter in our home so we could attend a funeral at the last minute. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer person to take care of our two dogs!!! Highly recommend Sharon and will be using her again.”
“We loved having Samantha watch our pets! Her experience working at the emergency vet clinic gave us peace of mind. She was flexible in taking our dogs into daycare while we were gone too. Thank you for everything!”
About: I have over 30 years of personal experience owning dogs, having almost 4 at once on my family's country farm growing up. Since I was a toddler I've had an easy connection with dogs that allows me to make fury friends easly. I've seen the good and bad of what it takes to look after them, from a new puppy to a sunset dog. I work a full time but I'm open to mornings from 7-9:30am and any hour after 7:30 pm after working. I'm otherwise free otherwise all day on Monday and Thursday I pay extra attention to wants and needs while ensuring food and water are always available. I keep pets in the designated area unless otherwise allowed. I would prefer to sit at your house on camera if possible as I do have 2 dogs at home that are friendly but want to make sure there is ample room for everyone.

“Kristina went above and beyond to make sure Kiba was well taken care of. She truly cares about all of her animals and she made sure that our dog was comfortable with her tending to him before by spending some time with him prior to the house sitting. This made me feel secure as well that my pet and my home was cared for. I looked forward to the many daily pictures and updates while we were away. I look forward to using her again!”

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 Grant-Valkaria 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 Grant-Valkaria 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 Grant-Valkaria 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
