About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, between walking our family dog to neighbors and house sitting for cats and dogs. I have about 8 years in veterinary medicine working as a veterinary technician/ assistant. I love all breeds and seeing all different personalities. I have one dog of my own who is a small Chihuahua, Sophie and I did have a bangle cat named Maui. I am currently working part time in animal clinic Wednesdays - Friday. I will be able to take care of pets Saturday's- Tuesdays. If a pet parent is needed with help on the days I work, I will be able to try and make accommodations as I know how hard it can be to find someone willing and able to care for their fur baby. I have a fenced in yard, I am currently renting and need to remove boarding at the moment but am willing to stay at a pet parents house if needed
“Robert was great with Loki! Loki can have a lot of energy when he meets new people, he calms down after a few visits. It was just a drop-in visit, but Robert took the time and did wonderful with him.”
About: Ever since I was 6 years old, I have been taking care of animals of all sorts for as long as I can remember. Cats, bunnies, chickens, reptiles, birds, dogs and fish. Animals deserve respect and each have their own boundaries and needs same as the family that takes care of them, communication is key and I endeavor to deliver. I have plenty of free time to use for good. And what better way then to spend it with pets? I am very flexible, I only need one day in advance, but if you have an emergency feel free to reach out, I might be able to help. I only do care in the client's home, and I follow the family's routine and instructions. I prefer not to interfere with established habits, to minimize stress on the animal. I have cared for different species of pets, played with them, walked them, fed them, cleaned after them and administered prescribed medication. Besides English, I also speak Spanish and Russian.

“Ireland is a very kind, gentle person, and has been extraordinarily patient with our cat, Ani. Our cat has trouble with everyone except for me and my husband and we really appreciate how patient Ireland has been with her every time she pet-sits, despite the hissing and hiding. Ireland is very responsive, always making sure to share updates on the timing of her visits and it makes us feel at ease when we are away from home.”
“Elizabeth was so great!! My cat adored her and I felt so much better knowing she was in Elizabeth’s care while I was out of town. Elizabeth was caring, thorough, and followed instructions really well. She sent pictures and updates every visit and it was obvious how at ease and happy my cat was in her care. Definitely going to book Elizabeth the next time I go out of town!”
“She was quite amazing with my dog and he’s quite difficult and overprotective when I’m home. It was a delight to know that she was not scared of my rat terrier by any means. If you have a difficult dog or an over protective dog she is the one that I would most definitely recommend!!!”

“Allison was absolutely wonderful with my pup! She’s reliable, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. From our first message, she was professional and easy to communicate with—always providing updates and photos so I knew my dog was happy and safe. I came home to a calm, well-cared-for pup and a tidy house. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I would 100% recommend Allison to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Ayelin was awesome! I have a really hard time trusting people with my dogs. They’re big & rambunctious, so I’m just picky. She did a meet & greet and was so great with them and then did drop in visits. I felt safe having her in my home, she was timely, and sent great updates. (Side note: She even brought up my trash cans! How kind). I recommend her with 10 stars”

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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Hobe Sound 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. 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 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.
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.

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 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.
