About: I’ve primarily cared for cats and am very comfortable with their routines, temperaments, and special needs. I also have experience with dogs and enjoy walks and playtime. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like my own. I work full time as an elementary school teacher. I’m available weekdays before 7:30 AM and after 3 PM. I am available anytime on weekends. I have full availability during school breaks and holidays. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for all pets in my care. I’m attentive to their needs, follow routines closely, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I communicate regularly so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

“Glenn looked after Oliver, our 13-year-old Jack Russell in our home while we were away on a two week vacation. Glenn met with us and asked plenty of questions before we left, so he could understand Ollie's routine and behaviors. He sent photos of Ollie every day while we were away so that we could relax and enjoy our journey. Our home, and our fur baby were well taken care of, and we highly recommend Glenn to anybody looking for a professional pet and home sitter who really cares about his clients and their pets!”

About: Hello!! My name is Laura and I’ve grown up with animals my entire life. I currently care for a variety of pets including my dog, three cats, two birds, and a ferret, so I’m very comfortable managing different types of animals and their unique needs. I usually am hired by neighbors and friends of neighbors but I figured I try this style out! I care from big to small dogs and I can also care for exotic pets! I have experience with feeding routines, cleaning up after pets, playtime, walks, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I also regularly help take care of my friends’ pets when they’re away, so I understand how important it is for owners to trust that their pets are in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and love. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. Also, not only am I taking care of your pets, I also take care of your house! I will treat your space with the utmost respect as I would expect from mine. I can water plants, vacuum, any sort of easy cleaning I can do! Pool, yard work, let me know! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive pet care. I’m able to visit multiple times per day if needed and will always make sure your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and comfort are my top priority. Safety and trust are extremely important when caring for someone else’s pet. Since I have multiple pets of my own, I understand how important it is to know your animals are in good hands. I always pay close attention to pets, make sure they’re comfortable in their environment, and follow any instructions given so they stay happy and safe.

“Lisa was great. She stayed at our house and took care of our pets and our home. She communicated with us before and during the stay. She came over to meet the dogs and learn about staying at the house. She sent pictures of the dogs during her stay. When we returned home the dogs were healthy and happy AND our house was tidy and clean. Would definitely recommend Lisa. She loves dogs!”

“Heidi was absolutely incredible dog sitting for my 3 Aussie dogs. She let the dogs out a few times a day, took them on special trips in the car or to the beach which they lived. Heidi also spent the night with the dogs since they are not used to sleeping alone. Without me asking, Heidi also took out the trash and got the mail while I was gone. I will continue to use Heidi moving forward to care for my dogs for any future needs.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for more than 30 years, from my own family pets to pets belonging to friends and neighbors. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need plenty of attention and playtime to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, care, and a slower pace. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow the schedule and care instructions that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether that means walks and playtime, lots of belly rubs, keeping up with a puppy’s routine, or giving an older pet some extra TLC, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine. I work part-time in a medical office, typically for 4–6 hours at a time, and also work part-time from home. This gives me plenty of availability throughout the week and the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and extra attention when needed. Because I’m not away from home for long workdays, I can be flexible with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care, companionship, and attention they’re used to while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs, and I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and preferences. Safety is always a priority, so I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could put a curious pet at risk. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show in mine. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and affection.

About: Hi, I'm Toi, and I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your home and beloved pets in someone else’s care. I am conscientious about keeping a home clean, secure, and cared for, and I treat every home as I would want someone to treat my own. I’m attentive to details, reliable about following instructions, and proactive when it comes to communication. I enjoy the simple pleasures of life, spending time with animals, getting outside and watching soccer. For me, house and pet sitting is about more than just watching a home or feeding a pet. It’s about providing peace of mind to the people who are away and making sure their pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re gone. I would be honored to care for your home and your furry family members as if they were my own. Pet care is a consistent part of my life, I have my own dog, and I've been pet and house sitting for over ten years. Caring for animals isn't occasional for me, it's a daily habit, whether it's my own dog's routine of feeding, walks, and playtime, or looking after someone else's pets while they're away. I treat every animal I care for as if it were my own, making sure their feeding schedule, exercise, and comfort stay consistent even when their owners aren't there. I'm also very respectful of the homes I stay in, treating each one with the same care and attention to detail I'd want if it were mine. When I'm sitting at a client's home, I follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible with consistent feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions they provide, like medications or special diets. I treat their home and their pet with the same respect and attention I'd want for my own, keeping the house clean and undisturbed, and making sure their pet gets the same love and consistency they're used to when their owner is home.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hailey did an amazing job caring for our home and pets while we were away for four days and three nights. From the start, she was professional, dependable, and easy to communicate with, which gave us great peace of mind during our trip. Our pets were clearly well cared for and received plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Hailey kept us updated while we were away, and it was reassuring to know everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, our pets were happy and relaxed, and our house was clean, secure, and well maintained. Hailey went above and beyond our expectations and treated both our home and pets as if they were her own. Her rates were very fair, especially considering the outstanding level of care and service she provided. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring house and pet sitter. We will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Hailey!”

About: My family dog Jake lives in Philadelphia, and we’re very very close. Whenever I’m home, I feed him home cooked meals, take him on walks often, spend time outside with him, and if I’m inside he follows me from room to room all day. We’ve built a special friendship even though I’m only able to see him for a few months of the year. I work online as a holistic health coach, which gives me a lot of flexibility to be home and give your dog the attention and love they deserve. I don’t see this as simply “pet watching”. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and would love to make them feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you’re away. I also love to cook, so I’m more than happy to prepare fresh, home cooked meals for your pets if that’s part of their routine. I love being outside too, so walks, park/beach trips, and plenty of time outdoors are things I’d genuinely look forward to. More than anything, I’d love to have dogs in my life more often. If I’m taking care of your dog, I want them to feel at home with me. I’m available any day of the week with at least 48 hours notice! I work online, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to spend a lot of time at home with your pets. Most of my work consists of independent work and client calls, all of which I can comfortably do while your pets are around. That way your pets can have plenty of company and care throughout the day without me needing to leave them alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to follow whatever routine works best for them. Whether that means playing outside in the yard, getting some exercise indoors, or simply relaxing and keeping them company. I’ll make sure they always have fresh + filtered water, are fed according to their normal routine, and get plenty of walks / attention throughout the day. I’m also a holistic health coach, so if your pets eat home cooked meals, I’d be more than happy to prepare their food as well. I spend most of my day outside and walk a lot, so frequent walks can easily fit into my routine. Finallh, if there’s any way you'd like me to curate the environment to support them then I’d be more than happy to do that!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hobe Sound

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Hobe Sound is $71 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $101 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,400 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hobe Sound. 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 Hobe Sound 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 Hobe Sound 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 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!

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hobe Sound. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
