About: If you’re looking for a trusted pet sitter, you’re in the right place. I’ll make sure your furry family member is safe, loved, and treated like one of my own while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can help with drop in visits, house sitting, boarding whatever works best for you. I’ve been around animals my whole life , from energetic puppies to moody cats and even the occasional rescue with quirks (I get it, we all have them). I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet behind, so I show up the way I’d want someone to for mine: reliable, calm, and with lots of love to give. Whether your dog needs long walks, your cat needs space (but still wants to be admired), or your pet just needs someone to hang out and keep their routine steady, I’m here for it. Let me know what your little buddy needs, and I’ll take care of the rest , updates, belly rubs, and all. 🐾 I work a 4-day week, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for pet care, especially on my days off. I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the day, and I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the attention they need. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality and needs whether that’s sticking to a familiar routine, giving them space, or just offering lots of love and attention. I’m always happy to follow detailed instructions, give updates, and communicate so you feel fully at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s well being means everything to me, and I’m committed to earning your trust every step of the way.

About: I have relocated to Boyton Beach Florida! I am a mature, responsible person that worries about my own dog and cats care. I have 1 dog and 2 cats. I am not working so I am available pretty much anytime for help with your fur babies. I also can take care of your cats (or other small animals, no spiders or snakes please) feed, play, clean the litter type of stuff.

I am semi-retired after working at a hospital for 39 years. I am available pretty much anytime. Even late nights, early mornings.******* ******** ***** **** At this time I am not able to do stay in my house visits. Dont have enough room for that. xxxx xxx xxx xxx xxx
“Could not have asked for a better dog sitter. It’s obvious she loves dogs and she took such good care of my Burna doodle. The house was spotless. She communicates every day with pictures of the dog. She did everything better than me probably and that’s a hard Follow.”

About: I've always adored animals ever since I was little. Growing up I was surrounded by not only cats and dogs but I also had a bird and chinchilla. From a young age, I was taught the correct ways to care for animals; now I have two dogs of my own. I have experience with watching multiple animals at the same time while providing different care for each animal individually based on what they need. I understand firsthand how important it is to feel comfortable and safe when trusting someone with your animals and I promise that I will provide the best care. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. While I am currently a student and work part-time, I carefully manage my schedule to ensure I can provide dependable, attentive care. I am committed to being upfront about my availability and only accepting bookings that allow me to give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. If my schedule aligns with your needs and it’s a good fit for both of us, I would love the opportunity to care for your pet! I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s well-being and tailor my care to their individual needs, personality, and energy level to ensure they are happy and comfortable. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved family member. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care and give owners peace of mind while they’re away.
“Jessica is a great communicator and sends lots of photos of the pets while she is pet sitting. I feel my pets are in great hands when she is pet sitting which helps me relax while on vacation. :)”

About: I’ve taken care of my daughters dogs when they travel and I really like enjoy doing it. We have a good connection I love playing and feeding them. I am an energetic person who is very active in my free time, I love going on walks, exploring new areas and making new furry friends! I am very flexible as I am retired and can arrange my schedule to fit your needs. I make sure they are safe at all times. I monitor them for any behavioral changes, ensure there is nothing harmful in their vicinity, and just overall make sure the pet is relaxed and happy. I would never leave a pet in a distressed state.
“David was great with our two large golden doodles! He was patient when learning their medicines and their walking routines. He walked them and exercised them as we asked. We received photo and video updates as well which were greatly appreciated. We will use David again in the future!”
“Mackenzie is an amazing dog sitter! She was super communicative, flexible, and made sure our 3 very needy dogs got all the love they require. Highly recommend!!”

“Suzanne was a lifesaver and helped us with a last minute request. She was responsive and quick to help. We did house sitting with Suzanne and it was a smooth process and Josie warmed up to her which is fantastic. Thank you and we look forward to working with you again!!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for large breeds, including my own Rottweiler, as well as two cats, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve worked with dogs who have allergies, mobility issues, and sensitive backgrounds, so I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping pets calm, safe, and comfortable. I’m very active and confident handling dogs of all sizes, including strong or high-energy breeds. Daily care is a big part of my routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining consistent schedules. I also have experience preparing specialized meals and following detailed care instructions, including medications when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep things stress-free. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently use a scooter for transportation, so I focus on local bookings and do not offer car transport (such as trips to dog parks that require driving). If preferred, I can have my boyfriend assist for extra support—especially helpful for longer stays or multiple pets—but only with your approval. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks during house sitting, such as keeping things tidy, bringing in mail, or basic upkeep. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a key part of my daily and weekly routine. I walk, feed, groom, and play with my dogs every day, making sure they stay happy and healthy. I also prepare homemade meals tailored to their needs, especially because one has allergies and the other has mobility challenges. With my cats, I give them attention and respect their space. I’m organised and committed to providing consistent, loving care for all pets in my life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s familiar environment. I make sure to provide companionship, feeding, exercise, and any medication as directed. I communicate regularly with the owner to update them on their pet’s wellbeing and any concerns.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years by watching pets for family members, coworkers, and neighbors. Through these experiences, I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. I believe pets are happiest when they feel comfortable, safe, and loved, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos while they’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm currently working part-time, so l'll have plenty of time to play with your pups!

I have a secure, fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, and I live in a one-story home with plenty of space to relax. I also have a friendly miniature Goldendoodle who loves other dogs and enjoys having playmates. I live with my retired grandmother, who is also a big dog lover, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day.

“Malynda was great with our clan!!! She checked in a lot, sent photos and went above and beyond for our pets. I know it was a successful and great week for my pets and she sent me photos of the timid cats getting pets from her and treats!! I highly recommend her.”

“Kathy was amazing taking care of dog Eve for a long weekend. There were some last minute challenges thrown in the mix with Eve getting sick and needing to receive medications while I was away and Kathy’s experience was a game changer for easing my mind while away. She also did a great job giving love to my cats who did drive by visits with her throughout the stay. I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a seasoned animal lover who will send updates and pictures daily.”

“Geri is amazing! Great person, mature, responsible, and so knowledgeable. This was the first time we left our puppy with a sitter and he loved her! Definitely booking with Geri again! Thank you so much, Geri!!!!!”

“Kathleen was amazing. Highly recommend her. Very professional and treated Charlie as if ihe was her own dog. Very knowledgeable and made sure she understood my needs and Charlie’s. She’s the best!”

About: I have had a plethora of pets my whole life. I have a lot of experience with senior/special needs cats and dogs and other critters but love pets of all ages! I currently work full time during the week but enjoy pet sitting in evenings or weekends! I am very active and would love to take your dog on a long or short walk! I am a very calm person and pets seem to warm up to me easily. I enjoy both dogs and cats and have experience taking care of almost any animal.
“Great sitter! Took very good care of our dog and cat while we were away so we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about them! Good communication and sent photos with updates for ease of mind. Went above and beyond to deal with our apartment management’s unit inspection and helped us with a last minute request for house care.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean Ridge
Maria took wonderful care of our cat, Star, for an entire week, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She followed all of our detailed care instructions, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Star and treated him with kindness and patience. We came home to a happy, healthy cat and a well-cared-for home. Maria is reliable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter, and we would gladly book her again!

10/10 We loved having Taylor over while we were out of state. Before we left, she coordinated a meet/greet with our 2 pets, before our (5) day trip. We knew we made the best choice with her care. It was especially heartwarming to receive daily updates with pics/videos while we were away! Our pets are normally not around other people, and very skiddish - but they instantly warmed up to Taylor. We could tell with their behavior in the daily updates how genuinely comfortable they were with Taylor. Taylor genuinely cared about a peace of mind trip for us, and gave the pets a stress free environment while we were away. Book Taylor for your pet care!

Erika was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. She stayed with them at my apartment for several days. My Lhasa Apso is a subborn pain in the butt that isn’t comfortable with being left with strangers. But Erica won him over!! My other baby is a pug mix with diabetes. She lost her site due to the diabetes as well. She gets insulin injections twice per day along with a couple diff eye drops. It’s crucial that she gets her medication’s at exactly 12 hours apart every single day. She can’t be late and she can’t miss a dosage. She made sure to stay on top of it every single day. She sent me pictures and videos several times a day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my babies than Erika. I have been in Florida for 5 1/2 years and I finally found someone to take care of them when I want to leave to see my kids out of state and not feel stressed or worried about their care 💕🙌 I highly recommend

This was our second time using Karren -- this time we had her stay with our pup in our home for 2 nights. Karren was very caring with our dog during thunderstorms and also was very helpful with making sure our home was secure during it. We appreciate her partnership!

Antonette did an amazing job caring for my 2 cats and 2 dogs. Communication was excellent with quick updates, photos, and always easy to reach. You can tell she genuinely cares and my pets were relaxed and happy when I got back. She’s reliable, attentive, and very trustworthy. I’d absolutely book again!

Shay was a pleasure to meet. Very personable and friendly from the moment I met her. I have two dogs that can be a bit timid, and nervous with new people. She has a nice calming spirit about her and they both took to her quickly. I appreciate all the pictures and detailed updates she sent. She left the house, looking great and emptied the trash and made sure the boys had water. Everything was perfect! I will definitely book with her again whenever she’s available. She was very responsive from when I first contacted her through the whole booking. Thank you the boys loved you!

Kelly is an amazing dog sitter. This is the second time I’ve used her for overnight stays, and she continues to do a fantastic job. She keeps in touch consistently, sends updates, and I genuinely feel that she cares about my dog. I always feel confident leaving him in her care. I’m also very grateful for how helpful and accommodating she has been whenever I’ve needed support. I highly recommend Kelly

Manda is the best!! My kitties always have such a happy and peaceful time with her. One of them is very anxious and he is always calm and happy with her. He even packed himself into her bag last time! lol I highly recommend Manda, she is professional, clean, and dependable. You will always feel at ease when she is caring for your pets.

Lauren was absolutely amazing! She stayed for a long weekend to look after our pup. She took great care of our dog, communicated throughout the stay with photos and videos, and left our house spotless! We definitely will be booking with her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,815 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ocean Ridge. 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 Ocean Ridge 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 Ocean Ridge 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 Ocean Ridge 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 Ocean Ridge. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
