About: I have cared for animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, and horses, and understand every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive and take the time needed to let each animal get comfortable with me at their own pace. I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities from rescues to pedigrees, Lab/Pit mixes to Great Danes, as well as horses, beginning in my high school years and currently volunteer at a local horse rescue. What sets me apart is the interest I show in them. Recently, I was at the gym when a little dog came over and immediately sat down with his back to me and happily accepted some pets. When he looked up at me, he seemed to be saying, “Thank you for the pets! I have your back while you do this machine.” 😊Aww When I meet 2 dogs at the same household, one is usually more outgoing. I always make sure to pay equal attention to both, maybe the quieter one a little more. Animals can sense when someone genuinely enjoys being around them, even if some take a little longer than others. My availability is flexible, semi-retired, working remotely part-time allowing me to be available. I’m happy to work with your schedule and, when I can accommodate it, I’m also available for last-minute requests. I enjoy being able to give pets the attention and care they need while their people are away. I also understand life happens and planning is sometimes last minute at best. The safety and comfort of your pet is always my first priority. I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, while paying attention to their behavior and surroundings. I make sure doors, gates, and other exits are secure, and I never assume a pet is comfortable with something simply because another pet is. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own home. I keep things clean and orderly, and I make sure your pet has a safe, comfortable environment while you are away. I also believe communication is important. I want you to feel connected to your pet while you are away, so I’m happy to send updates and photos and let you know how they are doing. If I notice anything unusual with your pet or in your home, I will let you know. I will be taking a Pet CPR & First Aid class in October in Boyton Beach. I'll learn the most up to date protocols in pet CPR, choking, rescue breathing, bleeding, snout to tail assessments, dental, pet care, first aid and more. I’m taking this class so I can be as prepared as possible to care for your pets and respond in an emergency.
“Janine did a great job of caring for Lily and she spoiled her with many walks to her favorite park! She communicated well with me and my house wa in great shape when I came home.”
“Sally was AMAZING with our boy Banks and we were so happy to have had her help while my wife and I were away on vacation. She sent consistent updates and took very good care of our puppy. He had a little bit of a health scare and she immediately put our minds at ease by taking him to get evaluated and updated us throughout the entire process. Everything ended up being okay and she kept a close eye on him and made sure he was happy and healthy. We highly recommend Sally and are very happy to have been introduced to her.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, especially dogs and cats, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I’m new to pet sitting, but I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I recently started pet sitting as a side hustle while I work toward one of my biggest goals: saving for my own home. I’m excited to turn something I love into an opportunity to reach that goal while helping other pet owners feel comfortable. I work full-time as an Ultrasound Tech during the week, so I’m available for afternoon/evening walks and overnight stays. I have a very open and flexible schedule on weekends and can accommodate different times and care needs. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need. For overnight stays, I’m happy to stay in the home so the pets can remain in their familiar environment rather than being stressed by a new place. For drop ins/walks , I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible and keep the owner updated with pictures and messages so they know how their pet is doing.
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 after 3 PM and 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.
“Lori is wonderful with our spoiled Bailey. We never have to worry when we leave him with her. She was at our house over New Year’s and experience a very scared Bailey with lots of fireworks. She handle that situation just like we would have done. Bailey is very happy when he is with her. He hates for us to leave, but is very happy when he sees Lori at the door. We highly recommend her and use her when she is free. Thank you, Lori.”
“Micheal was fantastic from the first point of contact . Communication was excellent before caring for Holly and Kobe and during the time they were in his care. Micheal ensured he had all the information he needed to care for Holly and Kobe . He took the time to get to know them before we went away . Whilst we was on holiday Micheal would send daily updates with photos. We did not have to worry about Holly and Kobe whilst on holiday as we knew they were being well cared for . We had two happy dogs on our return from holiday and they have not sulked with us for the first time for leaving them !”
“We had the BEST experience with Erica as our sitter. We were so impressed with how relaxed and not stressed our two dogs - and the cat - were when we came home. We were able to enjoy being out of town for Thanksgiving knowing our babies were is great hands. We got daily updates and and photos. I highly recommend Erica!”
About: I have had a pet of some type my entire life, and I love to take care of animals. I work from home and have 2 willing teenagers at home who would love another pet but will settle on helping care for yours. I'm current home all day and will take your dog for walks and play. I have a ton of flexibility to walk dogs, take care of pets and play. Someone in our family is always home. We have a family dog at home that gets along well with others. Your pet will be treated the same as ours with fun play time, walks, exercise and a ton of attention.
“Christine did a wonderful job and we will absolutely ask her to come back for future visits. She made our dog completely comfortable and she went above and beyond with her frequent communications and flexibility. Definitely a five-star pet sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog and others dogs for 13+ years. I’ve had dogs my entire life and I am such a huge dog person! I will bathe, feed, or walk or all if needed! I have a 10 year old French bulldog at home and before him, I had a Cockapoo who we had just before him until he was 15 years old. I’m currently a student, so I have plenty of time between classes and during the day to walk and play with your dogs/cats. Most week days I’m available & weekends are even better. I have a French bulldog at home and if your dogs friendly, we can socialize them, but I have a gate if we need it!
“Jessica took amazing care of our boy Blue - he got such much pool time and lots of cuddles which made him a happy boy. I appreciated all the feedback and beautiful pictures and the house was left nice and tidy. Thank you Jessica!!”
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: When it comes to pets, I've had a menagerie of unique ones. My experience with them has enabled me to acquire the confidence that I possess thus far. However, 13 years ago, I was given the opportunity to work for a local dog trainer who has successfully expanded her business throughout the years. During that time, I became certified in Pet First Aid as well as certified as a Pet Care Technician. I developed training and Pet Care skills all under the mentorship of the certified dog trainer while employed at her business. I have handled and worked with multiple dog breeds and their personalities. I have a calm demeanor around pets which is reassuring to them. My instinct is to look after their needs and their comfort at all times. Ultimately, the proper care and safety of the client's pet(s) helps to ensure a successful ongoing relationship. I am employed part time, however, I can accommodate pet visits, overnights and walks on Tuesdays and Fridays as well as on weekends. I am somewhat flexible on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 2:30 p.m. When taking care of pets in clients homes I tend to their needs by frequent outdoor breaks or walks. Should the pet require medications, I can administer them accordingly. I make sure they are hydrating and keep to their feeding schedules. Their play time is equally as important along with adequate rest.
“Michelle is an amazing pet and home sitter! She went above and beyond to make our dog Lacy happy and content. She kept a photo album and sent daily updates of their walks together and sweet photos of Lacy sleeping, playing and eating. Michelle also prepared Lacy’s homemade meals and lovingly played the same music, as when I’m home. It made being away much more enjoyable knowing Lacy was in such good hands. Thank you Michelle!”
“Michelle is the absolute best! She stayed at our house to watch our older dog and cat while we were away for 8 days. She sent pictures, checked in with updates, and even helped us navigate an unexpected AC issue. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and a great communicator. My pets loved her! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing sitting services.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Jupiter Island
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,524 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jupiter Island. 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 Jupiter Island 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 Jupiter Island 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Jupiter Island 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 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jupiter Island. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
