“Tabby managed to earn the trust of my normally skittish, formerly feral cat, which to me, was HUGE! She was an excellent caretaker and communicator. She also did a great job as our house sitter!”
“Andrew took very good care of my fur babies! He was courteous, caring and communicative! I had no worries with leaving Scooch and Tank in his knowledgeable care. My senior pup has mobility issues and it was great knowing he was in very good hands!”
About: I am An animal lover who wants to spend my free time ,ouside my full time job, helping others and spending time with your fluffy family members. I currently work a full-time job and go in for my shift at 2 PM in the afternoon so if you were looking for someone in the morning, I am your gal I can be well trusted with pets due to the facts I have 4 large dogs in my life! I’ve dealt with many large farm animals and many small farm animals as well. No matter the size or personality I am able to get the animal to love me. I’ve never met an animal I can’t love
“Kayla was absolutely wonderful. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Bella was in such good hands. I received frequent updates and pictures. I truly can't say enough good things about the care Bella received.”
“Hands down, Guinevere has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She responded in a very timely manner, kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing and sent many pictures. Two of our dogs normally go on a hunger strike when we leave, but this was no problem with Guinevere there. She even won over our crabby dog! House was left cleaner than when we left. We’re excited to book with Guinevere again in the near future.”
“My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!”
“Paige has house sat for our animals twice now, and she has been fantastic! The communication and care she gives them has always been a huge relief when we go away on trips.”
“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”
“Kyra took excellent care of our dog Cooper. She gave him her undivided attention throughout the evening. We are extremely happy with her and Cooper loves her. We will definitely be reaching out again when we need a sitter.”
About: I have taken care of cats for at least 20 years now. I would love to help someone out by taking care of their cats when they cannot. I am retired so I would have a lot of time to take care of your cat or keep them company for a while. I love fur babies. I have three indoor cats and one outdoor cat that comes in to eat and sleep. They get plenty of attention. I would love to add more Cat friends to have fun with.
About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my deep and varied pet care experience, fueled by genuine love and mirroring the dedicated care I provide my own furry family. Beyond standard sitting, I offer an understanding of canine behavior and individual needs through hands-on dog training, certified pet therapy volunteering, shelter and rescue assistance and fostering dogs of all ages and backgrounds. This comprehensive experience allows me to provide specialized care, especially for puppies and senior dogs. My commitment goes beyond simply supervising dogs. I strive to create a comfortable, enriching and safe environment where your dog is family, receiving the individualized attention and understanding they deserve. Pet care is deeply integrated into my daily life; it's my full-time dedication. Daily Routine: Morning (6:00 AM - 8:00 AM): My day often begins with my own pets. This includes: Feeding: Ensuring everyone gets their appropriate breakfast, fresh water and medications Potty Breaks: Taking them outside for their morning elimination. Exercise/Playtime: A walk in the yard, a quick game of fetch, to get their energy levels up. Health Checks: A quick visual assessment to ensure everyone is looking and acting healthy. Mid-Morning/Afternoon (Variable): This is often when I schedule client visits or depending on the day, this might involve: running errands Boarding Care: For dogs staying with me, this includes regular potty breaks, supervised playtime in my yard (often integrated with my own dogs if appropriate and safe), and individual attention. Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): This mirrors the morning routine for my own pets: Feeding: Dinner time for everyone. Potty Breaks: Evening elimination walks. Relaxation/Affection Time: Cuddling on the couch, gentle petting or quiet playtime. Preparing for the Night: Ensuring fresh water and comfortable sleeping arrangements. Late Evening (Before Bed - 10:00 PM - 10:30 PM)): A final potty break before we all settle in for the night. Mack Pack Pet Services LLC - Where your dog is family here! Licensed & Insured.

“Sheryl and her husband were truly OUTSTANDING! They came through for me when I found myself with an 11th hour need, and took excellent care of my 15week puppy over the weekend. They gave her lots of playtime and affection. You can trust Sheryl to take excellent care of your dog.”
“Michelle was awesome! Our fur babies loved her! She let us know when she arrived and gave them lots of love. She sent us pictures and updates of our guys. She was great and we plan on using her again.”
“5 star service from Eric and Sylvia. They took such great care of our Trixie and treated her as their own. We couldnt be happier and Trixie had such a great time, thanks so much Eric and Sylvia! We will definitely request you guys again, Mark and Christy P.”

About: Had my first pet at a young age and I have always shown them love and attention. Love how much they just want to be Love and be Loved. Work part time and have lots of time to Pet Sit. Very flexible with my schedule and this is something that will be perfect for me to do as I love and do well with our Fur Family.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Palm
I can’t recommend Corrina enough! She took such amazing care of my two Corgis, Kirby and Peach, while I was away for two nights. It’s always a little nerve-wracking leaving your pets behind, but Corrina made the whole experience completely stress-free. She kept me updated with adorable photos and sweet notes about how the pups were doing, which I really appreciated. Kirby and Peach clearly felt comfortable and happy in her care — when I came home, they were relaxed, well-fed, and clearly had gotten lots of love and attention. It’s not easy to find someone who treats your dogs and your home like their own, but that’s exactly what Corrina did. I’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again the next time I need a sitter!
Cortina was an amazing dog sitter for our two dogs! First of all, she was consistently easy and quick to communicate with. I could tell my dogs were comfortable with her immediately at our meet and greet and it was obvious that they were well taken care of while we were away. She also provided updates for us while we were away which we appreciated. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Palm
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,986 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Palm. 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 Palm 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 Palm 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Palm 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 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.

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.
