“Jaycee was great to work with! We appreciated her enthusiasm to work with our cats. Jaycee was very flexible and communicative with us which made it a breeze to work with her. She is very experienced with cats which made us more at ease with having her take care of them. She even persisted with attempting to give our grumpy old cat medicine. We would absolutely recommend Jaycee and use her services again in the future.”
“Sophia did a fantastic job taking care of my cat while I was out for a week. She went above and beyond to make sure my cat was happy and comfortable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter!”
About: Hi! Im Andrea. I moved down to Vero Beach Dec ‘21 from North Dakota and now making my way up to Melbourne! I’m loving the florida life! Beaches are wayy better here. Back in north dakota i had 3 families I would pet set for. Ranging from small to big, lazy to extremely hyper I can handle it all! I’ve had many pets from 4 cats at time, a snake, to 3 cats and a dog, and now two cats. Please let me hangout with your animals before I go rescue every furbaby at the shelter. Open availability in September/October besides weekends. I work 12 hour shifts in east/central melbourne area, can most likely work out a potty break in that time if needed:) I have experience in residential Window Cleaning in high value properties in the Vero Beach area, I always have the upmost respect for another persons home, animals, and property. I can do small cleaning jobs as well for an additional price. I’m not willing to stay in another’s home overnight until a couple meet ups with pets and their owners for personal safety and comfortability reasons.
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets since I was in high school. I’m very responsible and am a calm presence around dogs. I pay attention to their energy and am intuitive about their needs. I have house sat and cared for dogs, cats, horses, cows, and chickens. I love animals and will make sure your furry friend is cared for and loved. I’m known for being responsible so that pet parents can rest easy knowing their pets are in good hands when they’re with me. I work from home full time, so if you need someone to keep your pet company during the day, let me know! I live in a house with a fenced in yard and a screened in pool that has an additional child protection gate if needed. Here’s what some of my clients have said about my work with pets: “Kenzi was made to care for animals! She is incredibly patient and gentle. Very aware of things happening around her. My dogs love when Kenzi comes around and I never have to worry, I know that they will be cared for as if I were there with them. She is a fabulous find!” -Eliza “Kenzi has been a house sitter for me for several times over the last few years. She has been responsible for taking care of my 2 horses, 2 dogs, and 1 cat. When I come home it’s like I just left, everyone is happy and healthy! She will make a great caregiver for anyone’s fur babies, whether well refined or rough around the edges like mine!” -Roberta I currently work from home and have a relatively flexible schedule, so I’d be happy to help with your pet needs. Detailed schedule tbd, but when I tell someone I’m going to be there, I follow through. I’m very responsible and respect the time of others, so I honor my commitments and make sure to follow through if I agree to something. In my home, I’m a remote worker, so I have the time and flexibility to make sure your pet is well taken care of. If your pet joins us, they will well taken care of in an air conditioned and quiet home in a safe neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard too so I can take them out to play and take potty breaks throughout the day. If your pet needs more attention and cuddles, I’m able to give them that attention during my work day so they feel safe and loved. In your house, I am respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I make sure to leave a place as clean as when I arrived, and I will be a calm and reassuring presence for your pet so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. You can rest assured knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Celia did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Anastasia, as well as my roommate’s Guinea pigs and two aquariums. Great communication, positive attitude, and Anastasia loved her right away, so I had no worries while I was gone”
“It’s such a relief when I know Emily is going to watch my babes while away on a trip. She is super observant of any behaviors or potential medical issues, and my cats quickly came to trust her, which is certainly no easy task and very telling! It is apparent she really loves and cares about animals.”
“Aramie was reliable and took care of everything while we were gone. We saw that he kitties were happy and healthy when we returned (although they missed us, of course!). I will call on her again!”
About: I am an animal lover of all types. I have had many types of animals from dogs, cats, birds, and horses, just to name a few. I would be able to stay overnight if need arises. I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your babies. I am available to care for your babies as needed. Please give me two days notice to arrange with you the details. Thank you for your time and consideration. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I will give them plenty of love, attention, and any other needs they may have.
About: I've had pets from large dogs to as small as hamsters my entire life. Im currently a vet tech so my whole life revolves around pets and giving medications is not an issue for me They would be taken care of (fed, medicated, and put for potty breaks/litter boxes cleaned) before I go to work in the morning and then will have my full attention after work. Pets boarding at my house will have the guest bedroom to stay in when im not home or to be by themselves if that's what they would prefer. They will have a large fully fenced in yard to explore and play with my personal dogs (or again not if that's what they would prefer). My dogs are crate trained so they can be separated if needed.
About: My love for animals started early—I actually started my first pet-sitting business in my apartment complex when I was 12, and Pampered Paws turned into one busy summer.! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have personally cared for two medically needy pets, so I’m comfortable with medications and providing extra care when needed. With my strong background in healthcare, I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in your pet’s wellbeing. I only care for one pet at a time so they receive my full attention, affection, and—of course—plenty of treats. I recently lost my sweet baby calico, Sushi, after many wonderful years together. Caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I would be honored to care for your pet with the same patience, love, and devotion I gave my own. I do not work during the weekend and I do not have children so your pet will have my undivided attention. I’m happy to provide plenty of play both indoor and outdoor, based on pet and owner preferences. I live in a quiet neighborhood, no children, and no pets of my own at this time. In your home, I was raised to take off my shoes at the door, respect other people’s homes like my own, and leave everything better than I found it. I am happy to make your time away from home filled with ease knowing your home and your best friend(s) are in great hands.
About: Loving, Experienced Dog Sitter — Boarding in My Home 🐾 “Hi, I’m Sam! I’m a caring and dependable animal lover who understands that pets are family. I took a break from dog sitting for a while because my own dog unfortunately wasn’t friendly with other dogs. He has since passed away, and I really miss having a dog around the house — so I’d love to welcome your furry family member into my home and give them lots of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I offer boarding in my home and doggy daycare, where your dog will be treated like one of the family. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time, and I live in a dog-friendly gated community that’s great for walks. I’m also happy to take dogs to a nearby park for some extra exercise and adventure! I’m a huge animal lover and understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of affection, playtime, walks, attention, and cozy downtime — whatever makes them feel happy and at home. I also have a 4-month-old baby, so it’s very important that any dog staying with us is comfortable and gentle around babies and children. I want every pet (and my little one!) to feel safe, happy, and relaxed during their stay. I do accept several bookings at a time but if your pup is more comfortable being the only one in the home, accommodations can be made. I’d love the opportunity to spoil your pup with love and care while you’re away and give them a fun, safe, home-like place to stay! 🐶❤️ As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible daily schedule that allows for me to be home most of the day. I’m able to work walks, playtime, outdoor time, feeding, and lots of love into my normal routine. I’m also able to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times when needed. I want every dog to feel comfortable and at home while they’re here, so I’m happy to follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions you provide. Most importantly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and included as part of the family during their stay.
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life, and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, special needs (lots of medication) dogs, and working with multiple dogs at one time. My favorite part about working with dogs is being able to run and play with them. I am available early mornings and late nights. I also love trail walking/running, so I'll make sure your dog gets the exercise they need! I follow a rigorous routine of walking/running with my own dogs, and will take the same care with yours! Typically, I work from Tuesday through Saturday in an office. Generally, I can provide morning walks, and afternoon into evening care. Lunch time walks may be dependent of location! Caring for other dogs involves building trust through playtime, walks, and of course, treats! Making sure your dog is comfortable on walks and overnights is the top most priority.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from large breeds like pit bulls and mastiffs to small dogs such as Shih Tzus. Growing up around different breeds has helped me learn how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and understand each animal’s unique needs. I also actively volunteer at an animal shelter, where I work with animals of all ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has given me valuable knowledge in handling shy, energetic, anxious, and senior pets, specifically dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and confident in providing safe, loving care while making sure each pet feels comfortable and understood. I’m currently in my senior year of college and only have two classes on my schedule, which gives me plenty of free time and flexibility for pet care. I’m also a photographer, so you can expect lots of high-quality photo updates of your pets while you’re away. I’m based in the Saint Leo area during the school term, but I do go home to Brevard County every so often. Because of this, I ask for at least 2–3 weeks’ notice to make sure I’ll be in the area for your booking. I don’t have a fixed schedule, so clear communication is key and helps me provide the best care possible. For safety reasons, I do not have a fenced-in yard, so I prefer to provide pet sitting and walking services in your home. This allows your pets to stay in a familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and anxiety while maintaining their normal routine.
About: I volunteered for Lasthope animal rescue for eight years while I lived in New York. I currently have six cats and one horse. And a lovely new addition of a puppy I’m currently working part time in the mornings for two hours and on Thursdays in the afternoon for an hour. I have plenty of free time during the day I’m very flexible I can crate your dog if needed. Long walks by the park or the beach. I always have an extra breakaway collar and leash.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since 2016, I have gained professional experience through animal shelters, veterinary hospitals, and caring for pets for veterinary clients. I hold a degree in Animal Science from the University of Florida and have experience with pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs, including administering medications and injections. Whether I'm stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or staying in your home, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pride myself on excellent communication, following pet parent instructions carefully, and providing reliable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have owned animals my entire life, so animal care is naturally built into my routine. In addition to my personal experience, I have worked in veterinary medicine and animal welfare settings, giving me extensive hands-on experience with pets of all ages and needs. I work full-time Monday through Wednesday, but I can often adjust my schedule to accommodate pet visits depending on location. The remainder of my week offers greater flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and household instructions carefully while providing plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection based on each pet's personality and preferences. I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, senior pets, puppies and kittens, and those with behavioral challenges. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and videos when requested. I also treat my clients' homes with the same respect I would my own. Before the end of a house-sitting stay, I typically wash any bedding and towels I used, clean up after myself, and leave the home tidy so clients can return to both happy pets and a well-cared-for home.
“Raelin did a great job checking on our three cats. Her communication was excellent, and she fed, watered, cleaned litter, and played with them exactly as we requested. Would definitely hire again and recommend.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Malabar
ABOVE AND BEYOND! Alexander and Dorys are the most reliable, trustworthy, responsible, kind, loving and fun people that I have ever hired to care for my pets or my three children! I highly recommend hiring them if you want zero worries about your fur babies or your home. I could share two weeks' worth of daily examples of their great communication and execution of my list of tasks, but I will share just one: CHRISTMAS EVE. 5:30pm. Jones, our indoor/outdoor cat, wouldn't come home. The entire family was multiple states away, as were most of our friends and neighbors. Alexander and Dorys arrive a bit early to get Jones safely inside for the night, cleaned the box and food and water dishes, and were ready to play and cuddle for 30 minutes. (always sending me pics and updates.) They kept calling for him. Did the nightly routine: selected a good TV program for him, checked thermostat and garbage, and kept calling for him --- on Christmas Eve when they were on the way to their family gathering. They were communicating with me that Jones was not home, and I told them they should leave the cat door open and to go to dinner with their family. It was Christmas Eve! (And, Jones often doesn't come back home immediately when called.) I said the neighbor would keep an eye out. But, Alexander and Dorys didn't feel good about leaving Jones outside and didn't want me to worry. Instead of leaving him outside like I said to do, they tracked Jones' Airtag that I had shared previously. The lovely couple went throughout the neighborhood, calling him and shaking his treats until they found him two blocks away. Then, Jones didn't want to ride in the car. So, Dorys walked and carried Jones all the way back home. And, they still petted him and gave him his nightly catnip party! I will attach a pic of the walk home with Jones looking like he's clawing her arm, but she never said a single word about that. They were just happy to have found him and made sure my fur baby was safely home so I could have a worry-free Christmas Eve. I believe this single example of my experience with Alexander and Dorys is a real testament to the care they would give your pets. In addition, they also cared for my large 'high-maintainence' German Shepherd the week that he had leg surgery for new ACL, and Dorys sat on the couch beside him and read with him the entire night to ease his separation anxiety. Gave medication, treats, and took care of Jones' indoor/outdoor needs... Dr. Dog was the least anxious that I have ever seen him upon our return home. He was so happy and peaceful ... another testament to the connection they have with the animals. You can see it. They are animal people, truly kind, and the pets and I love them - you will, too! :) ( Most of all for me busy working and traveling with family, etc.... I like not worrying about anything, no matter what. They took care of everything that came up without me giving a second thought. Worth every penny for the peace of mind... everything taken care of... everyone is happy!)

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
