“Great communication and Brego was so comfortable from the first check in and enjoyed the special attention. Really helped me with a last minute service and looking forward to future bookings!”
“Denise was communicative, followed instructions and loved our two kitties - of different ages and personalities, plus she brought in packages from the door so they weren’t sitting outside while we were away. I would ask Denise to watch our kitties again!”
“We love Channing! She is reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. She always sends us pictures of our fur bab. to help release any worry we have while we travel. We would recommend her to anyone 😊”
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have always enjoyed the unique experience each one brings with them from their personalities. I have a large backyard of 2 lots fenced in together for my Doberman so that we have lots of space to play and he can really stretch his legs. He loves playing with other dogs and we are hoping to make lots of new friends, both with fur and without. I do most of my work from home, Sunday- Wednesday I am home all day, and I do have my 10 year old son after school on those days, but we go for multiple walks, and do playtime in the yard which is 1/2 acre and fenced in. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I do work but typically only 5-6 hours outside the home. If I am going to be working longer on a day where you're booked I will communicate that ahead of time. I have 1/2 acre, my back yard is large and entirely closed in so it's safe and secure to let multiple dogs outside to roam, run, and play with no worries. I have a large run that I have completely cleared out for playing catch with my doberman so he can really stretch his legs and get going. I do let the animals in my house, and they will spend most of the time inside when it's hot, with frequent opportunities to go outside and play/ exercise. Inside if the dogs are playing together, I usually leave them to enjoy each other, otherwise I frequently engage with them with whatever toys they want to play with as the day goes on and they're not napping.
“Norah was quick to reply and set up a meet and greet! She was friendly and my boys warmed up to her quickly. She was happy to adapt to their needs and my requests and I feel that they are in good hands while with their new “friend”!”
“Amanda is awesome! We left the country for a week and had her stop by to spend some time with the kitty 2x/ day. I was at ease the entire trip knowing he was in good hands (and receiving lots of love & affection.) She always sends the best pics and leaves the house super tidy!”
“Eni was fantastic with our Shepherd, Griffin! She came for a meet-and-greet, took notes, and asked great questions. She also showed up wearing a pouch of dog treats, which made her fast friends with our pup. As a vet, I am very picky about who watches our dog, but as a digital nomad, we have to find pet sitters in each new city we visit. I wish they were all as wonderful as Eni! I highly recommend her. She was always on time for her visits and left us detailed report cards. Our dog was happy and relaxed whenever we returned home!”
“Jennifer is amazing! Our babies were very happy, she loved them up for us while we were gone & took great care of them. Would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing someone & will surely wish to have her take care of our babies again. To note, this was very last minute as our plans changed & she provided us comfort before & during our absence knowing they were being loved up & well taken care of. Thanks Jennifer”
“Betty is a delight! Ive utilized her multiple times over the past year (most recently this week) and never have to worry about Roxie! Betty is very responsive, punctual and always provides great care 🐶”
“She did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She was incredibly patient, attentive, and caring throughout the entire time. She kept a close eye on my pup, made sure all of his needs were met, and treated him with so much kindness and affection. She was also very punctual, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”
About: I am a dedicated pet parent to a one-eyed Shih Tzu and two cats. My experience caring for pets with different needs has taught me how to provide attentive, compassionate, and dependable care. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I will make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. My schedule is flexible on weekends, allowing me to provide dedicated care and attention to your pets. During the week, I am available after 5:00 PM for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and evening care. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's routine and am committed to providing dependable, loving care when you need it most. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I provide frequent updates, photos, and communication throughout each visit so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I take the time to learn your pet's routine, preferences, and any special needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, frogs, rats. I love all animals and grew up with just about every type of pet you can imagine! I currently have two Pitbull/Staffordshire mixes. They are great friends and the best part of my life at home:) Sometimes their friend Raven, a black German Shepherd visits, however she does not live here full time. I work night shift so I would be happy to care for your pets on my nights off or during evening hours when I am home from work I have a fully fenced in yard for potty breaks. Any walks and home watches will be done with as much attention and care for your pet as possible!
About: I’ve owned and taken care of all different kinds of breeds and have all the time of the day todo so, I truly enjoy them I currently work part time remotely, so therefore my availability and time always there to take care of the animals that I have and love I spend most of my time playing, feeding, walking and lounging around with all different dogs and cats, no matter what their ages or sizes
“Klaudia is amazing! Lots of videos and picture updates. And letting me know about small things that she is noticing that might not be normal with my cat, Pandia. Pandia seems to love her and is excited when she comes over already (and she isn’t always interested in everyone). Klaudia is also really fast at responding and is a very good communicator- is clear about what days she can for sure work and what days she can’t and asks questions to clarify things- which I really appreciate. Would definitely highly recommend her.”
“WOW WOW WOW!!! Emily was ABSOLUTELY AMAZIN!!!! So professional, caring and fun with our 3 pups!! They say only "you" can take care of your pets the way they should be...WELL EMILY is a tight FIRST!!! Our dogs totally LOVED her, and I'm pretty sure the feeling was mutual!

She was so kind & would always send photos or videos of our Blue, it was so reassuring to see how happy she was & in good hands while we were away.

Tara did such a great job with Annabel’s care. She was thorough, conscientious, and went above and beyond to make sure my kitty had everything she needed. He communication was detailed and prompt. I will hope she is available when Annabel needs care in the future.
Amanda was absolutely fantastic and saved us in a pinch when another sitter stopped responding the day before our trip! She was so accommodating and took amazing care of our two kitties! They loved her right away and she loved them like we would have. She communicated so well and sent photos to update us and was truly pleasant to work with! So glad we found a sitter here we can trust! Will definitely be booking her next time we travel!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in North Port on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Port stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 North Port. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
