House Sitting Melbourne

“Lauren was AMAZING! This was one of the first times we went out of town and didn’t feel anxious about our dogs being taken care of. Her communication is great. We received lots of pictures and updates. She spoiled our pups. Super thankful we found her!”

“Stephanie is absolutely fabulous! She’s extremely accommodating, fantastic communicator, my dog’s had a great time with her, and I will definitely be using Stephanie again. I can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough – your fur babies and your home will be incredibly well taken care of with Stephanie.”

“Jennifer is very comfortable with large breed dogs like our Bernese Mt. dog who seemed to really like her. We were in transit through Florida and needed someone to pet sit our dog in our RV while we attended an all day family event in Orlando. We were very pleased to be able to find a competent pet sitter through Rover.com. The “meet and greet” was very helpful to not only get to know our dog, but also learn her way around the RV. Her time pet sitting also went well.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both small and large dogs, including breeds such as Yorkshire Terriers, Labrador Retrievers, Goldendoodles, and more. I’ve also owned several indoor-only cats over the years, giving me a solid understanding of feline care and behavior. I know that every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to provide the same love, patience, and attention they receive at home so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home Monday through Friday about 95% of the time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Unless I’m traveling for work or on holiday, I’m available for pet care, including during most major holidays. I have a home with a large, securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore. My beloved Thumper, a 14-year-old Jack Russell Terrier/Dachshund mix, crossed the rainbow bridge on April 24, 2026. While I no longer have pets of my own, caring for other people’s dogs and cats has become a meaningful way for me to continue sharing the love and companionship that animals bring. Whether your pet enjoys playtime or simply relaxing nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Dogs in my care enjoy daily morning and evening neighborhood walks, and they’re welcome to cuddle on the furniture and even the bed if that’s what they’re accustomed to at home. When house sitting, I treat your non-smoking/non-vaping home with the same respect and care as I would my own. In addition to providing attentive, loving care for your pets, I’m happy to perform light housekeeping, water indoor and outdoor plants, bring in mail or packages, and take care of other small household tasks we’ve agreed upon. My goal is to keep your pets happy, maintain their normal routine, and give you peace of mind while you’re away. When your pet stays with me, they’ll enjoy a clean, comfortable home with plenty of cozy dog beds, a large, securely fenced backyard for zoomies and playtime, and a toy box filled with fun toys. As a special welcome, every first-time boarding guest gets to take home a toy as a souvenir from their Dogcation! I believe pet parents deserve peace of mind while they’re away, so I provide daily photo and video updates, along with a personalized report card summarizing your pet’s stay, activities, eating habits, and overall experience. Because I work from home most of the week, I can offer plenty of one-on-one attention and companionship tailored to your pet’s individual needs. Whether they love to play, cuddle, or simply relax nearby, they’ll receive lots of love and personalized care. I’m highly organized, reliable, and flexible whenever possible with drop-off and pick-up times, including accommodating last-minute schedule changes. My goal is to make your pet’s stay as fun, safe, and stress free as possible for both you and your furry family member(s).

About: I love all animals but I do travel sometimes so I currently do not have any of my own. I grew up with all types of animals from dogs to cats, bunnies, hamsters, horses and such. I trained both of the yorkshire terriers that we've had. We have a 15 year old yorkie that lives with my daughter now. I am currently not working so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available quite often for walks. I am also available most days and some nights to care for your pet. I would rather care for your pet in their own environment because that is typically where they feel safe and comfortable. It is also a way to keep their regular routine.

“Benjamin is that dream dog person that you always hope to receive when you book a sitter! He went far and above expectations and my pups fell in love with him. I will certainly be booking him again and again!!”

About: While I’m new to Rover, I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always been a big dog lover. In 2022, my family got our dog Roxi, who is like my best friend. With Roxi, I’ve been fully involved in everything, walking her, feeding her, training her, and making sure she stays active and happy. I’ve also grown up helping to look after family dogs when relatives go away, so I’m used to different personalities and routines. I’m originally from Ireland and recently moved to Florida after completing my MBA at Marshall University in West Virginia. I now coach youth soccer, so I’m very active, responsible, and used to being around people (and animals) all the time. Moving to the U.S. has been a big change for me, and being away from my family and my own dog has definitely made me miss them a lot, and it’s made me appreciate even more how much I love being around dogs every day. I’d say I’m quite laid-back, reliable, and easy to get along with. I like being outdoors, staying active, and I’m always up for a walk or keeping a dog company rather than just sitting around. I’m also very respectful of people’s homes and routines, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I know how much dogs mean to their owners because mine means everything to me, so I always treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’m happy to send updates and photos as well, so owners feel completely comfortable while they’re away. Right now, I coach soccer in the evenings during the week and sometimes on weekends, usually for a couple of hours. Outside of that, my schedule is very flexible. I’m generally available in the mornings, afternoons, and often evenings for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. My coaching hours are not long, so I’m able to work around pet care easily and adjust my schedule when needed. I take care of pets in their own homes so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I make sure they’re well looked after with things like feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and giving medication if needed. I also keep things clean and stick to their usual routine as much as possible. I always spend time with the pets too, whether that’s playing with them or just keeping them company so they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for the whole time.

“Olivia was amazing with Brady and was very flexible when I was unable to find a dog sitter to come in last minute. Thank you so much Olivia!!”

“Kyrstyn was an amazing pet sitter!! I needed someone on a very short notice and she was so accommodating to our family. Our dogs and cats loved her!! She took excellent care of them and was very communicative and sent pictures every day. We would absolutely use her again on the next time we needed a sitter.”

About: Hi! I'm Dorothy. I've always loved animals, but I've definitely become a cat person over the years. I love getting to know each cat's personality and letting them warm up to me at their own pace. Some want to play, some want to chat, and some are happiest just having a quiet person nearby—and I'm happy with all of the above. I also enjoy dog walks and drop-in visits. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite ways to unwind after work, and I love getting outside with an excited pup. Pet sitting has become a family business for us. My two teenage daughters work with me, and I love that we've been able to build something together. My oldest is 17 and has her own repeat clients, and my youngest is 15 and helps with visits and walks. Depending on schedules, you may meet one of them too. We all genuinely enjoy caring for animals, and I wouldn't trust just anyone with my clients' pets. This year we said goodbye to my sweet Shih Tzu, Gizmo, and I still think about him often. These days our house is ruled by six cats (ranging from kittens to seniors) and my youngest daughter's adorable Shih Tzu puppy, who keeps us all entertained. While I still offer boarding occasionally if it's the right fit, these days I mostly focus on cat visits, dog walks, and drop-in care. Thanks for stopping by my profile. I hope I get the chance to meet you and your pets. *Grey Cat Pet Care is our small, family-run pet sitting business on Florida's Space Coast.* Pet care is our full-time passion and a total family affair! Because my daughters and I manage our schedule together, someone is almost always home to provide love, supervision, and companionship. Our days are naturally structured around pet care—from morning yard play and neighborhood walks to afternoon cat snuggles and evening wind-down time. Your pet will seamlessly blend into our daily routine and never be short on attention or affection. Safety is our absolute top priority. When boarding in our home, dogs have full access to a spacious, completely secure, and fenced yard for supervised playtime. We introduce new dogs slowly and carefully to our puppy and five cats. Whether in our home or yours, we closely follow your specific feeding, medical, and crate routines. Our experience with shelter cats and rescue dogs means we are experts at reading animal body language to ensure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and secure.

“Linda did a wonderful job with our anxious pup. She spent a great deal of time with her and that really helped with Sophie's separation anxiety. Gave us peace of mind while we were away.”

“We loved having Samantha watch our pets! Her experience working at the emergency vet clinic gave us peace of mind. She was flexible in taking our dogs into daycare while we were gone too. Thank you for everything!”

“I highly recommend Kerrie to watch your fur babies!! She was very communicative throughout her stay at my home over this Thanksgiving holiday. She made it a point to check in and send pictures daily. She even let my Frenchie sleep in bed with her since that’s how he rolls. She is so sweet and absolutely loves caring for your animals. I would definitely use her services again. 💛”

“Genesis pet sit for us for 11 days and did an outstanding job! She is a kind and caring. She took the time to meet my husband and I prior to our booking and to interact with our dog to ensure it was a good fit for all of us. She also took the time to return just prior to our trip to review all the home, pet, and trip details and ensure everything was set. Genesis exceeded our expectations, taking excellent care of everything, including our dog and our home! We would not hesitate to ask her again or to recommend her to others.”

“I REALLY enjoyed getting updates, fotos and videos of my dog, Woody. He really enjoyed it at Gretchen's. Happy dog, happy life!! Thanks so much for taking good care of him!”
