“I got so lucky with Cynthia! She was the first person I found on Rover and she was absolutely amazing. I went out of town for a quick trip and she stayed at my home with my pups and she took great care of them. She was communicative and so kind and I’m very excited to have her watch my dogs again 😊”
“I was very lucky to find Ginny! Chloe doesn't warm up to strangers quickly. She immediately went to Ginny. I feel she was very well cared for and loved. Gave me peace of mind to enjoy my week long cruise where I was out of touch. Couldn't have been better. I look forward to booking Ginny again.”
“Pete did an excellent job with our fur babies while we were away! Even our bashful cat Petunia succumbed to his charms. Pete sent us photos multiple times while we were gone. It was reassuring to see our fur-kids doing well. The house was well maintained upon our return. We will be reaching out again to book with Pete.”
“Danielle was absolutely amazing.I had no concerns at all for my little babies.She took care of them as if they were her own as she loved on them as much as I would have.I saw pictures throughout the entire visit and many to updates as well.”
About: Hi, I’m Clara! I’m a 24-year-old first responder and college student with a lifelong passion for animals. I grew up caring for my own pets as well as those of friends and family, which helped me develop both experience and a genuine love for animal care. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, bunnies, pigs, horses, and fish. I also adopted my current dog from a shelter who requires daily medication, so I’m comfortable supporting pets with special needs. I offer flexible hours, dependable service, and attentive care. I would love to take care of your animals—no matter how big or small! I currently work as a first responder on a rotating schedule of 12-hour shifts, which means I work about half the month and have the other half off. While my availability varies week to week, this schedule allows me to offer plenty of flexible time for pet care. I am very attentive to my own dogs needs as well as clients pets needs. I make sure that everyone has a proper balance of exercise, food and water, and playtime every day.
About: My name is Sara. I am an animal lover and have 20 experience with animals from bunnies to goats and dogs from Chihuahua to Rottweilers! Over the last 30+ years I have been involved in animal rescue, fostering and rehoming...this has included Elderly Dogs, Pitbulls and various other animals with special needs and circumstances. I currently have a pitbull terrier mix rescued from an animal hoarder and a bulldog puppy. As these animals are still in training and have some behavioral issues I do not bring my dogs on walks or introduce them to my clients pets during boarding. If you are considering boarding, walking or any other visits for the first time feel free to message for any questions or for a meet & greet. I look forward to meeting your pets and loving them like my own! - Sara Flexible schedule. I have the pleasure of recently becoming a stay at home Mom so I can cater to your pets preferred time. Also looking for regular clients. Would your dog like a day out...walk on the beach, pup cup while you're away? I have a pet friendly car and can transport them to their favorite spot for exercise. I love to walk...long or short walks, whichever your pet prefers! I also have a chuck- it ball thrower if your dog loves to fetch if you prefer for me to play with your pet at your house in their environment instead of walks. Your pet will not interact with mine but will have my full attention! I would like to meet and discuss your pets individual needs and do a meet and greet with you around so they are comfortable. You can discuss any pet preferences at this meeting so we can customize a good, safe and healthy routine for your baby :-)
“Carol had us at hello, her warm caring personality and stickler for details shows how much she really cares about your fur baby as a family member. This is one of the first times that we have felt at ease and no stress while we were away. She communicated everyday and sent pictures and videos which we loved! Now and the future when we go away, we rest assured that our baby is in good hands! Thank you Carol for becoming a part of our extended family. Diva loves you! 💕🥰🙏 Carol always made sure our fur baby ate her food before giving her her medicine. She even slept with our fur baby!! We can't thank you enough!”
“As a first time Rover user who recently moved to a new city, Jenna is exactly the dog sitter I was looking for! She was extremely communicative and sent regular pictures and updates of our dogs. She was quick to respond and on time every day. I would have no hesitations in recommending her to others for dog sitting needs.”
“We had an amazing experience with Joelma as our dog sitter! Our pup was happy and well cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Joelma went above and beyond, leaving our home not only well-maintained but even cleaner than when we left. I wholeheartedly recommend her to all my neighbors and friends!”
About: Ever since I was young I have loved animals of all kinds. I have 2 medium dogs of my own and I sometimes tell my husband that the dog is my spirit animal. I have experience watching several furry friends at once, but also available for private boarding with advanced notice. If you need help from a trusted source, don’t hesitate to send me a message. I am a remote worker and available to watch your furry friends anytime Monday through Sunday. I am also available for holiday request as well! I am compassionate and loving by nature, but I’m also very organized. You can trust that your furry friends are well taken care of and we hope they want to come back. I have a fenced in back yard with a garden and plenty of space to run around. I also like to take your furry friends on one of my daily walks through the neighborhood.
“Alla was amazing! Plenty of pictures and updates. The house was nicer than we left it and best of all our dog Basil was happy and enjoyed her walks. We will be using Alla again soon.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs for the past 20 years, big and small, healthy and sick. All of our pets need a trusting hand to help them.

Please express your needs and we can come to an agreement together, includes overnights! ** Weekends and Holidays available** All pets would be treated with the utmost care and respect. Any accommodation requests for your furry friend is always welcomed and taken seriously. Thank you
“This was the first time I’ve ever been apart from my two boys since they came into my life almost five years ago. I work from home, so they’re both very attached to us, and leaving them was something I was extremely nervous about. When I reached out to Harley, she came by to meet them — and from the moment she walked in, I knew she was special. My boys are usually shy and tend to hide when new people come over, but not with Harley. They walked right up to her, curious about the new girl in the house, and before I knew it, they were playing and showing a side of themselves I hadn’t even seen before. You know what they say — pets can sense these things. Saying Harley was amazing doesn’t begin to cover it. She was so much more. She stayed with my boys and sent me photos and updates of how they were doing. They were a bit confused at first but quickly adjusted to having her around. She kept my home spotless and went so far above and beyond anything I could have hoped for. After we got home, both cats kept going in and out of the guest room she stayed in — I’m pretty sure they were looking for her. I even caught them napping on her bed a couple of times, and they never show any interest in that room! Harley, thank you so much for your kindness, your care, and your patience — even with my crazy cat-mom list and random check-in texts. You’ve turned my anxiety about leaving them into complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful for you and can’t wait to book with you again. My boys can’t wait to see their favorite sitter! ❤️🐾”
“House sat and watched our Collie and Sheltie for three nights. Stayed in touch regularly along with pictures (dogs obviously had a great time). On our return, the house was absolutely spotless. Highly recommended!”
“Heather was great with our dog, Murphy! She was very communicative with me and sent pictures daily! She took Murphy on daily walks and played with him in our backyard! She provided wound care on his foot and gave daily medications. Heather truly cared for our dog as if he was her own! We will definitely use her again!”

“We could not be happier with our experience with Jessica. My wife used to work at a vets office that also did boarding, when we would have to go out of town we always knew our dog was in good hands because we knew everyone who worked there. This was the same level of comfort. Jessica assured us that our pup was in great hands, while we were gone she stayed in touch, giving us updates and including some pictures. We will absolutely be using Jessica again in the future and I couldn't recommend her enough.”

We had a great experience with Cynthia! She was reliable, had good communication and took such great care of our Golden Retriever. She even went above and beyond by cleaning up around the house. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
We hadn't used a service before, so I was a little nervous at first. After the initial meet & greet, I was relieved. Isabel was a sweet and respectful young woman. Very attentive to the details. She stayed overnight with our 2 kittens and dog, who sadly acquired a need for medication management last minute before leaving for our trip. Isabel responded with "of course" my pleasure with each request. The daily pet picture updates helped me relax and enjoy our trip. And upon returning home, our pets & home were in excellent states. Couldn't be happier, even if family had watched them.
Amazing!!! I was initially very nervous to leave two elderly cats for a long weekend but so happy Megan was able to care for them. She has a very calm and warm energy and I knew they were in good hands. We came back to a house cleaner than we’d left it and two very happy cats.
Jason presents himself well and is open to receiving instructions and feedback. He came over for a meet & greet last weekend, then, he came over for 3 hours yesterday to get acclimated. My family of 3 humans and 3 dogs is happy we met Jason and happy to be his first Rover clients. We believe we found a great fit. We are rebooking with Jason asap!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Palm Coast on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 503 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Palm Coast. 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 Coast 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 Coast 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 Palm Coast 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 Palm Coast. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
