“Thoughtful and professional cat sitter! I can tell she truly loves animals. She got to know each of my two cats and was hardworking. All of our many instructions were followed to a T! She took a lot of pressure off of us and the place was spotless when she got home. Most importantly: our cats were so happy to see us! They weren’t as angry that we left and we got right back into our normal routine quickly. Would trust her to watch them again in a heartbeat!”

About: I have 20+ years of experience with critters of all kinds ranging from Hamsters to Horses. Great with puppies, senior dogs and everything in between. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time for walks, drop ins, belly rubs, doggy park play dates, house sitting etc. My schedule is flexible, I live in an apartment and don’t have any fur babies of my own. Dogs have the same privileges as humans at my house. They tend to get more naps, snacks and couch time than me, it’s a dog’s life over here for sure.

I am a single female and happy to take the dog out at anytime.

About: I’ve always taken care of animals. My responsibility growing up was caring for my 8+ horses, cows, pigs, poultry, sheep, dogs and cats. I’m very familiar with animal behavior and training. I’ve also had quite a bit of experience shadowing a veterinarian. 3 of my best friends are in veterinary school and I have 2 other friends who are currently working as veterinarians. My availability is quite good. I’m currently in medical school studying from home for my step one exam. Right now I am at home almost 24/7. My home is spacious and very dog friendly. My home has a completely fenced back yard (6ft wood panels) with room for multiple dogs to run and play.

About: Hi! I’m Ulyses, a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience in dog training, handling, and pet care. What sets me apart is my understanding of canine behavior and the importance of patience, consistency, and positive interactions. My experience training dogs has helped me recognize different temperaments, understand body language, and adjust my approach to each dog’s individual needs. I’m also the proud owner of Buddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer! As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable who will treat your pet like family. Whether your dog is energetic, playful, shy, or prefers a relaxed environment, my goal is to provide attentive, personalized care while maintaining their normal routine. I believe that great pet care goes beyond feeding and walking. It’s about building trust, providing a safe environment, and making sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities! I currently work full-time on an overnight schedule, which gives me flexibility during the day to provide pet care. I enjoy spending my free time caring for dogs, whether that means walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship and attention. I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s individual schedule. I also have weekend availability, depending on the services needed. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss your pet’s needs and find a schedule that works for both of us! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. With hands-on experience in dog training, I understand the importance of recognizing canine body language, respecting boundaries, and providing a structured, positive environment. I’m also the proud owner of Buddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer! For dogs who enjoy socializing, introductions can be arranged gradually and under close supervision. I understand that not every dog is comfortable around other animals, and I always prioritize safe interactions. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect the owner’s instructions, maintain their established routines, and ensure their environment remains clean, comfortable, and secure. You can expect reliable communication, updates, and photos throughout your pet’s care!

About: I have been pet-sitting since approximately 2014--my absolute favorite jobs have been with my sister's labradoodle, Rex, pictured above, as he is my nephew. I love animals, get along with them quickly, and am adaptable to their unique needs. Happy to help reinforce training as needed and have plenty of experience with all sizes and lifestyles, small to large, sedentary to active. I work part-time in the food and beverage industry; formerly working as a corporate ghostwriter for business executives and owners. I would love to meet cute fur babies in the neighborhood as it inevitably uplifts my mood and day without fail. I have a flexible schedule all mornings to early afternoons and would love to spend some time making pet parents' lives a little easier and meeting my neighbors. I am not able to currently house pets in my own home due to size and lease restrictions. That said, as a house-sitter/pet-sitter, I closely follow pet parents' exact instructions for their pet and house care, including rules, dietary needs, and scheduling. I aim to build trust and neighborly relationships based on transparency and accountability with any and all of my clients.

About: Owned and taken care of animals since I was little. Cats, dogs, other mammals/reptiles. Great with dogs no matter the energy or temperament, I can get them to feel comfortable. Besides caring for my son after school and summer camps, I have free time most of the day to do any checks or walks as long as it's not overnight/late night. I can care for them with provided toys/food/area or I am capable of taking them on walks if they need time out farther from the house. I know older dogs may not want to play fetch but still need to walk around the block a bit. Also cleaning if the owner has the area and supplies is no issue, I love giving dogs a bath.

About: I have actually received many positive reviews for the sitting I have done up to this point, 4 years professionally and a lifetime of experience too! I have mostly had furred and some feathered pets, and have watched them for people I know in their homes too. I've done lots of official sits the past few years, and have been invited back for repeat sits several times. I'm conscientious and organized etc. by nature, and also have a calm presence that most pets quickly warm up to. I've taken care of indoor, outdoor and indoor/outdoor pets before, and am good with doors and keeping them where they need to be. I've also been recommended for other sits, and have had many others reach out to me for sits. I've also done a few sits without even having to meet the owners, like if they needed to take off or needed me to fill in as a replacement, so that's always an option if it ever comes down to it. I've even obliged when the first pick ahead of me falls through, which is no bother for me and probably ends up for the best anyway! My first 15 reviews shown here are just some of the many actual sitting-related reviews I've received over the past few years. I am flexible in general and can accommodate most any pet care requirements and scenarios. And feeding as well as play times and so forth. I am very good with doors and keeping pets contained and where they need to be. I am also attentive and enjoy giving pets attention.

About: I have taking care of pets in my neighborhood since I was about 14! I’ve had a wide range of dogs growing up, and I absolutely love all furry friends of any kind! I currently dog walk still for a few clients, but definitely want to expand my horizons into meeting new dogs and new people! I absolutely love building a bond with my dogs, but I also love the dogs the clients as well! I can’t wait to take care of your furry friend <3 I currently work a job at a restaurant. My schedule is flexible so I have more than enough time to hang out with your furry animals! I’m available early mornings till late nights! Every week I’m available to take care of your fur baby or every day whatever fits your needs :) I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can easily attach a harness or a collar and remove it and I can also lift dogs of any size or keep dogs of any size off sofas or beds. I can do almost anything to give your dog a safe and comforting environment!

About: I have grown up with 3 dogs at a time, basically my whole life. I now have a 3-year-old golden retriever that I love dearly, and I would love to assist with any of your needs to keep your doggo happy, loved, and cared for as you are away! You can count on me for frequent and direct communication alongside Video/FaceTime updates! I am currently working part-time, so specific time slots during the week will absolutely work; weekends are often very open for any needs you may have. I prioritize safety, predictability, and a calm environment! In clients’ homes, I follow instructions exactly—feeding, walks, medications, and house rules are not improvised. Doors, gates, and leashes are double-checked, and pets are never rushed or forced into situations that make them uncomfortable. I maintain clear and proactive communication, sending regular updates and photos to ensure owners know their pet is safe, settled, and well cared for. My goal is simple: low stress for the pet, high confidence for the owner.

About: I’M BACK IN THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY🤗 About me: For the past 12 years, I’ve been deeply involved in fostering, volunteering, boarding and walking, which has allowed me to work with dogs of all ages, breeds, and needs. I started providing dog walking and boarding services at 20 years old, and have since gained a wealth of experience in handling different temperaments and behavioral challenges. My passion since I was a kid is to work with animals and one day open my own non-profit shelter. Since I graduated university, I aim to focus on growing my services and showing the community that I am the best for your pets needs. About my experience: l administer medications: oral medications, injections, applying topical treatments, etc. I also have specialized training in working with puppies. For example: recall and obedience training (not potty training). I have extensive experience with senior dogs, who often require extra care, patience, and understanding. I’m attentive to their needs, mobility issues or health concerns. I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable at all times. My home is their home away from home. There is plenty of room to explore, play, or relax without feeling confined. My home is an stress-free, open environment where your pets can feel at ease while you’re away. (I have a dog of my own, a beagle mix breed. He’s extremely friendly and loves making new friends. If your dog is not dog friendly, I recommend booking me for drop in visits or house sitting!) Pet care is at the core of my daily and weekly routine. I dedicate my days to walking, running, and taking care of animals, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. My mornings usually start with walking and feeding the dogs in my care, followed by runs or extended walks for those with higher energy levels. Throughout the day, I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, playtime, and any special needs, like administering medication or training sessions. Each week, I structure my routine around the specific needs of each pet, whether it’s incorporating more outdoor activities for younger, energetic dogs or providing gentle care and companionship for senior pets. This balance allows me to give individualized attention to each animal while ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for. My entire day revolves around ensuring pets are happy, healthy, and thriving. Whether caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I provide a personalized approach based on their individual needs. In my home, pets enjoy a spacious, open-floor-plan environment where they can move freely and comfortably. I maintain a structured routine that includes regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and quiet periods for rest. With my experience in training puppies and senior care, I’m attentive to any specific needs, such as administering medication, managing mobility issues, or focusing on behavioral training. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow their established feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, ensuring the pet remains comfortable in their familiar environment. I also keep open communication with the owner, sending regular updates and photos to provide peace of mind. Regardless of the location, I prioritize creating a stress-free, loving environment where the pet feels safe and cared for at all times.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hobe Sound

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hobe Sound is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. 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 2,283 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hobe Sound. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
