“Thank you for helping out on short notice. Lauren went above my expectations when she came to feed my cats. She even scooped the litter box. From the pictures she provided, my cats took an instant liking to her which i found to be amazing, they are known to hide if someone ne comes around.”

“Ava went above any expectations I had while caring for my two pomskys one being a baby that is potty training and learning that biting isn’t nice. She picked up and cleaned that I hadn’t even asked of her.”

“Josh was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter for my cat, Milo. While I was away, Milo was clearly well cared for: he was fed, had plenty of fresh water, and his litter box was clean. What meant the most to me was coming home to a calm, happy cat. Milo can sometimes get anxious when I’m gone, but this time he seemed completely at ease, which really speaks to the level of care and attention Josh provided. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Milo was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter!”

About: I grew up in a family that bred Chihuahuas, so caring for dogs has been part of my life from a young age. I have experience with puppies as well as adult dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, basic care, and lots of attention! I’m also a dog mom myself and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. As a teacher, I’m dependable, patient, responsible, and attentive. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾 I’m a full-time teacher with a consistent schedule, so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits after school, in the evenings, and on weekends. I also have school breaks and holidays throughout the year that give me additional flexibility for pet care. I’m happy to work with you to keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m careful to follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and affection while respecting their personality and what they want. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾

About: Hi! I’m Karina — a lifelong animal lover with a deep-rooted passion for caring for pets. Growing up on a farm shaped my connection with animals and taught me how to understand their needs, personalities, and routines. Today, my home is still full of that same love: I have a Mini Aussie named Taylor, a fish named Jack, a cockatiel named Maya, and a baby Payton named Gaia. I’ve also cared for cats back in Brazil, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of animals. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family — with patience, attention, and genuine affection. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away, so I make communication a priority. You can expect regular updates with photos, videos, and quick responses whenever you reach out. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of time, care, and companionship throughout the day. I would truly love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a freelancer working from home, I maintain a highly flexible schedule and am available most days, including weekends. I am also flexible as far as last minute cancellations if you need to for a personal reason. I will provide regular updates through photos and videos, and I am also happy to share my location while caring for your pup to ensure complete transparency and peace of mind. I am highly attentive and committed to making sure you feel fully comfortable and confident entrusting your beloved pet to my care.

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.

About: Hi! My name is SJ! I always wanted to find someone reliable, kind, gentle and understanding to watch my own girls when I needed to go out of town. So I decided to be that for others who may also need a lil help in the puppy department. Trusting someone with your fur babies is one of the hardest things... Let me help take that stress off of your shoulders. Leave a detailed message on how to care for your fur baby and I got you! I treat every animal as if it were a human. Dogs especially always find their way to me 😂 I'm basically Ms. Rachel , but for dogs 🤣 I can be available for drop in visits, or some in-home sitting, let me know what you need. No worries! For some reason my rates are all over the place on this app and there's no way for me to update them I keep it easy and the same for everyone. 20 per visit +10 for additional pets. Example: 1 dog + 3 visits = 60. 2 dogs + 3 visits = 90. Message me or text to book I'm an Uber Driver and a local musician so I occasionally play music around Brevard county but I have plenty of time for your pets! My girls are set in their daily routines. I come and go throughout the day. I have a semi fenced yard (the rest is a natural barrier) our girls stay in the garden and don't ever leave the premises. It's a garden/dog park in our backyard. In your home, I would just need very clear directions on what your expectation is and I can follow that guideline with no problem :) My time is spent with your pet playing, feeding, walking, or just being there for some human interaction. I can clean up anything while I'm there for you. Just think of me as your assistant. Let me know what I can do to make your pet/day a little easier.

About: I have been petsitting since I was 11 years old, starting with dogs and cats in my neighborhood and branching out to friends and family all through town during college. I have 3 fur babies: 1 senior dog, 1 young adult dog, and 1 cat. I have experience with dogs with anxiety, reactive dogs, small dogs, large dogs, cats, and fish. I am happy to drop-in for a visit or take your dog on a walk! I am a homemaker who is interested in providing dog walks or drop-in visits for any pet around midday Monday through Friday. Do you need someone to let out your dog while you are at work? I am the girl for you! I am available for drop-in visits or dog walks in the client's home or neighborhood. I can walk dogs on a leash or let them out in your backyard. I can clean litter boxes and play with your cat. I can also feed your fish while you are away. Let me know what works for you :)

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.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Melbourne Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Melbourne Beach is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 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 November 2026, there are 1,164 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Melbourne Beach. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Melbourne Beach. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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.
