Jack was a wonderful sitter for our Penny girl. He was kind and attentive through the whole process. I am a bit “extra” when it comes to my dog, I love her so much and as a result she has many needs. Jack was open to everything I needed and wanted for herder g our trip and even walked her longer and more often than I asked. I will definitely be contacting him again for other trips we take in the future!

About: Don’t see that I’m available when you’d like to book? Please feel free to message me, and I’ll see if I can accommodate. Thank you for your interest! PLEASE NOTE: I WORK A FULL-TIME JOB IN AN OFFICE (based in Juno Beach) and may not be able to check on your pets as frequently as you’d like, especially during the day. I have experience caring all kinds of animals, personally and professionally for more than 10 years. Growing up and through adulthood, my family always owned Golden Retrievers. When I was young, I expressed interest in animal care and owning my own pets, ranging from small mammals, birds, and reptiles. In my teenage years, I started out pet sitting for family friends and have continued to pick up pet/house sitting gigs whenever and wherever I can. I also have experience administering medication to some of the animals I’ve cared for. Professionally, I have worked at a veterinary hospital and boarding facility for two summers. At this facility, I was responsible for the care and socialization of dogs of various sizes and demeanors. I also worked at my local humane society caring for cats and dogs with different lead styles, temperaments and bite thresholds. I was responsible for providing the dogs with three walks a day. Through this job, I also have some experience with clicker training and administering bordatella and rabies vaccines to incoming stray dogs. Looking to make extra money doing what I love! I do work full time, so my most open days for all services are Saturday and Sunday. However, I can accommodate AM drop in visits any day of the week. And I am open to pet sitting in your home any day, as long I can work it around my full time job. I provide regular photos and updates to owners to build and instill trust. I also make sure to follow care instructions as written to ensure proper care as intended. And I make sure to bring a calm and confident energy when entering and inhabiting your pet’s space. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority!

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for many breeds including Greyhounds, Collies, German Shepherds, Labs, Retrievers, and others. I currently have two dogs and a cat of my own. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet is different and will treat yours with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. I also have experience feeding and caring for turtles, rabbits and fish. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I work a hybrid schedule and maintain the same morning and evening routine for feeding, walks, playtime and potty breaks whether I'm working from home or in the office. On my work from home days, I'm able to give pets some extra attention and playtime during the day as well. I offer drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting, and I tailor care to each pet’s routine and comfort level. For boarding, I have two options depending on how pets get along with my own animals. If they’re comfortable together, they’ll be treated like part of the family with access to my home and fenced yard for playtime. If they need separation, I have a detached, climate-controlled space where they can stay safely and comfortably. I have experience with reactive dogs and use careful introductions and separate routines when needed, along with plenty of one on one attention, walks and potty breaks. For drop-ins and house sitting, I follow your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime with regular updates.

About: I’ve been around dogs and pets for most of my life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, providing companionship, or sticking to a pet’s normal routine, I take pride in making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, so I always focus on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. My schedule allows me to be available during mornings, late evenings, and overnight. I work in the afternoons and evenings, but I’m happy to work with pet owners to make sure their pets receive the care, attention, and exercise they need. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions to ensure they receive the best possible care. I believe in clear communication and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I understand that every animal is different, and I always approach pets with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their comfort level. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting, I’ll treat your pet and home with the same care and responsibility that I would my own.

Somyr was exceptional. She was patient with my nervous Luna and took time to get to know her. Somyr sent photos everyday, was very communicative, even helped with the last minute request for daily medicine to one of the pups. She is my go to dog sitter from now on. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets as if they were her own. Thank you Somyr!

I booked house-sitting services with Julissa for my two Boston terriers. One of them being a senior pup that requires medication administration and has higher needs in general… Julissa was incredible with the both of them. She kept in consistent communication with me, sent multiple photos, took them on multiple walks, reached out responsibly with specific questions to ensure she was meeting their needs appropriately, and overall showed them a lot of love. She also left my house clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Julissa for anyone needing pet care… I will definitely be using her again!

Andrea was truly incredible, especially given how last-minute everything was. She came all the way out to my home in a newer, more remote community without hesitation, which I really appreciated. From the moment she arrived, she was kind, compassionate, and incredibly accommodating. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions, wanted clear notes and structure, and made sure she understood everything—from routines to where the treats and supplies were. That level of care and attention gave me immediate peace of mind. My two dogs absolutely adored her and felt comfortable right away, which says everything. She also did a wonderful job caring for my two independent cats—something not everyone takes the time to do well, but she absolutely did. Andrea is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. I would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets (and home) with real care and respect.

Nicole took such good care of Olive! It was last minute and she still took time to come by and meet her, make sure she was comfortable, ask for all of the necessary information and details, and Olive took to her immediately. I received regular updates and photos and came home to a happy and well cared for pup and clean home. I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She will care for your pets like they are her own.

About: From a young age, my passion for animals has been a lifelong commitment. My deep connection began with rescuing a stray kitten at five years old, and since then, I have devoted my life to being a compassionate caretaker. This includes rescuing and rehabilitating injured animals I find, and regularly helping neighbors by caring for their pets. My entire life has been surrounded by animals, and I treat every one as if they are my own. I currently share my home with two dogs, whom I consider my world. My remote work arrangement provides a flexible schedule, which means I have the availability to seamlessly integrate pet care in to my weekly or daily routine. I have a fenced in yard and live in a very pet friendly neighborhood, allowing me to exercise your pets, by walking or letting them run loose in the backyard. When it comes to watching pets in clients home, I will adhere to there instructions, respecting there home and privacy.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I’ve always had at least four dogs in my home, so caring for pets has been a part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I have personally trained my dogs from basic potty training to commands such as sit, stay, stop, and roll over. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, extra attention, or reinforcement of training, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I can also provide overnight care if needed to help keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. In addition to my extensive experience with dogs, I have been cat sitting for the past three years. I am experienced with feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure cats receive the attention, affection, and care they need while their owners are away. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I make time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I am able to plan my day around the needs of the pets in my care and can provide updates to owners for peace of mind. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a long walk, or extra companionship, I am committed to making sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision, while also keeping their living area clean and tidy. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet by treating them with the same care and respect I would give my own animals.

She also went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, taking the trash out and back in, and helping with other little things around the house that made coming home so much easier. It was clear she treated our home with the same care and respect as she did our pets. We couldn't be happier with the experience and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!

Our two dogs felt right at home and comfortable with them right away, even our anxious dog who always takes a while to warm up. While we were away they sent us daily updates and pictures. The dogs had such a great time and we so loved while we were away. We will definitely use Margaret and Amos again!

Leaving a 3-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer puppy for a week while traveling overseas was not something I took lightly, but she exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment I left, she treated Dwight like he was her own dog. She wasn’t just there to feed him and let him out—she actively played with him, exercised him, worked with him, and genuinely bonded with him. Anyone familiar with GSP puppies knows they are bundles of energy, require constant attention, and can be a handful. She embraced the challenge with enthusiasm and patience. What impressed me most was her communication. While I was in Europe, she kept me updated throughout the week with messages, photos, and videos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. I never once wondered how Dwight was doing because she was always keeping me informed. When I returned home, Dwight was happy, healthy, well cared for, and clearly adored her. My home was also exactly as I left it. It’s obvious that she truly loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would trust her with Dwight again without hesitation and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, energetic, and professional pet sitter. She turned what could have been a stressful week away into a completely worry-free experience.

Rochelle is amazing! Rochelle took incredible care of my Salti. Salti is an outdoor diabetic cat and can be challenging due to his health needs, so trusting someone with him is not something I take lightly. I normally arrange two home visits per day, but Rochelle went above and beyond by offering to take him into her own home—and I’m so glad she did. She treated Salti like her own, showing so much patience, kindness, and genuine care. Rochelle was very communicative throughout his stay and sent frequent updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Salti was returned home safely, and showed no signs of stress. I felt completely comfortable the entire time and am extremely grateful to have found Rochelle. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter—especially for pets with special medical needs.

We were very happy with the in-home pet sitting services that Brenda provided for our senior dog for a 12-day trip to Europe. When our dog was younger, we would board him in other places. Since he is now 12 years old, it is easier for him to stay in our home and have someone come to stay with him. Brenda came to meet Hunter before our trip, so we felt very comfortable having her stay in our home with our dog. Hunter seemed happy when we returned home. We highly recommend Brenda as a pet sitter since we had a very positive experience with her.

FAQs for House Sitting - North Palm Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in North Palm Beach on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,829 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Palm Beach. 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 North Palm Beach 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 North Palm Beach 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.

Tip: 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 North Palm Beach 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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

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.
