About: I am a dog lover at my heart. I have professionally watched dogs for a couple years now and even have experience at a vet clinic as a vet tech. I have always had dogs since I could remember and there is truthfully nothing better. My boyfriend and I both work full time jobs but pet will always be cared for. We work morning jobs so we will be able to spend the evening with your pups. I have a wiener dog of my own and she is treated with respect and love. She loves other dogs and would love to help watch yours. I also just had a foster failure of a beagle mix who loves people and animals.
About: I have had dogs and cats most of my life. I started pet sitting in college and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages with and without medical needs. I currently have an 9 year old lab/border collie mix who I love dearly! And 3 cats ages 3 to 14 who bring me joy every day! I have a very flexible schedule and can visit your home multiple times a day, 7 days per week. Your pet will be cared for on their normal schedule. I currently care for my own pets with love and attention as they are a part of my family. They receive walks, play time, swimming and treats regularly!
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: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals, including training service dogs and working professionally as a groomer. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, different breeds, and pets requiring extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I am currently home full time after returning from deployment, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have plenty of flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I offer both in-home pet sitting and boarding in my home. For boarding, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, medication, and daily routines as closely as possible. For in-home visits, I respect the pet’s familiar environment and maintain their usual schedule. With over 10 years of experience, including service dog training and professional grooming, I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments.
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds, this love of animals has family and friends asking me to watch their lovies often. I have 2 french bulldogs of my own and have an understanding if your pet is picky, stubborn or all together allergic to something. I'm currently self employeed and will have plenty of time to care for your pets. Let me know your needs and I will make sure that I fit them into the schedule. Your pets will become like my own. I am vigilant when watching others pets and always make sure that they will have plenty of play and snuggle time. If you do not have a fenced yard I will ensure that your pet has an appropriate way to go potty outside if needed.
About: Since a young age, I've always had animals around me, from hamsters, ferrets, bunnies, to bigger animals like cats and dogs. Interacting and caring for animals is my #1 hobby. Currently, I have a cat and dog named Bella and Freddy A.K.A Moose and Bread. First thing every morning I feed them breakfast and take Bella for a walk. I can never sleep in anyways because Freddy will be up bright and early pawing my face at 6 am waiting for his food. The rest of the day consists of playing, grooming, cleaning the litterbox, and walking Bella every hour. I don't see these as "chores" because I like to do these things, it's like taking care of a friend. Then comes dinner, and we do it all over again tomorrow, bright and early. I know it's difficult to trust people with your family, so feel free to reach out for any other information, thanks! :) I'm currently working full-time, however, I am out of work after 2 pm daily so I have the rest of the day/night to care for your pets. Typically when I dog/cat sit for friends and family I spend most, if not all the day with the pets. My dog has separation anxiety, so I try to spend as much time with her throughout the day as possible. In terms of a pet owner's house, I will pack lunch/ dinner with me and do errands prior to dog/cat sitting.

About: I've grown up in a house with animals constantly. At 1 point, having more than 10 animals in a house. We had cats, pigs, dogs and fish. As well as some reptiles and ferrets. It's genuingly one of the most enjoyable things in the world playing and figuring out what animals love. Especially as they get to know, you and warm up to you. I currently am in full-time school so a good portion of my time is spent studying or working. My schedule right now is flexible because I'm in between jobs. I'm free to go over to anyone's house and I am willing to carry first aid kit and have a vehicle in case of emergencies, like they need to go to an ER. I have a flexible schedule for anyone willing as well as know basic wound care and distribution of medication as well. If I had to take care of quite a bit of sick animals and I know the routine of keeping track of symptoms and documentation.
About: I have been pet sitting for over 8 years. My family has owned dogs and cats since I was born! I’m very excited to help you with any needs you may have with your furry family members 😊 I currently live and work part time hours in Melbourne. Very flexible schedule! Would love to help you with your pet sitting needs for your travels :) Depending on your needs, I can offer whatever grooming, feeding and walking services you may need. I know some pets are in need of daily medications, and I am familiar with doing this already.

About: Hi there! My name is Kira and I'm 24 years old. I am a hug animal lover and have been taking care of pups and cats since I was very young. Growing up my step father was a vet tech, because of this he brought us along to pet sit for dogs and cat while people were away. I also have a cat name Walter and a dog named Disney who I love and care for. I also work front desk at Dogtopia of Viera were I have learned more about dog care as well. I understand how stressful it can be with leaving a pet at home by themselves and I want to help make that process easier for both you and your pet. I can't wait to get to know you and your furry friends! I am currently working only Mondays and Tuesdays in Rockledge from 1 PM - 7:15 PM. I will occasionally go up to Orlando for quick trips as well. Either than that I am free. I have experience with all different environment for you pet. I follow any instructions for your pet weather it's feedings, walks, medications, ect. Whatever you need.
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.

I also worked for a kennel for a bit as well. I'm a great multitasker. I love all animals. I would love to talk more about your needs that you need met. Feel free to contact me. hope to hear from you soon! Holidays, weekends, etc all okay if you want to get away for a bit!
“Melissa did an absolutely incredible job of taking care of my fur babies while we were out of town for 3 days. She kept me well informed of how everyone was doing while we were gone. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

About: Here’s a polished version of your message that keeps your voice but makes it flow more smoothly and professionally: Hello! My name is Kathleen, and I am Deaf. I have a deep love for dogs and many years of experience caring for them. I’ve cared for several of my own dogs, and my most recent dog, Nika, was with me until she passed away in January 2025. She was very special to me. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs—playing with them, feeding them, taking them on walks or outside for potty breaks, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I respect each dog’s personality and give them the space they need to feel comfortable and relaxed in my home. If you’re looking for someone gentle, patient, and experienced to care for your dog, I would love to help!If you want, dogs are welcome to rest with me, even on my bed if it helps them feel more at home. if your dog needs feeding, potty breaks, or playtime during the day. Just let me know your dog’s schedule, and I’ll follow it closely. I’m calm, gentle, and patient. I give dogs the space to be independent, but I’m always nearby when they need attention or love. House sitting — I would love to watch your pet, but while I work overnight Sunday through Thursday, my boyfriend is willing and happy to help watch your pet during those hours. I always take dogs out on a leash for potty breaks. I stay outside with them until they poop and pee. Sometimes we sit on the patio or relax on the grass for a few minutes. I also watch closely in case a dog has any allergies or needs special care outside. I give dogs the freedom to be themselves and stay comfortable while keeping them safe and cared for.

I am very comfortable around most situations I am self employed so working around your needs is easy and very customizable!! Anytime of the week I can be there for your baby I do the absolute most I can to make both you and your babies feel safe and comfortable.

About: I've grown up around animals my entire life and while I love them all, dogs hold a special place in my heart. Now in my adult life, owning a fur-baby (dog) myself, I truly understand the concern around finding someone to look after them while you're away and cannot bring them with. Because if we could bring them every where, we would, right!? :) I work from home full-time Monday thru Friday, which provides the flexibility to care for your fur-baby. I have several years of experience dog sitting, dog walking, and house sitting for family, friends, and colleagues. I would love to get to know your fur-baby and provide the best possible care for them! ** Unfortunately because of my own dog being reactive, I cannot board at this time. Since I work from home, I am able to provide your fur-baby the attention and care they need depending on their specific needs. I know dogs thrive on a consistent schedule and am happy to help maintain their normal routine while you're away from home. My top priority is make sure your fur-baby feels "at home" where ever they are. If they have a specific routine that we need to follow every day, I will adhere to them.

My 3 pups (all over 13 years old) were taken care of as if they were Gretchen’s own babies. Gretchen is one in a million! My pups just loved her and she loves them. Thank you for taking the stress, anxiety and guilt away from us. They are just too old and precious to take to a boarding facility. I will forever hire Gretchen to take care of my babies.

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 Malabar 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
