Deborah was an amazing pet sitter! I had a last minute trip out of town come up and she was very flexible to get a meet and greet setup before I had to leave. She was very communicative throughout the process and sent me pictures! She even watered my plants! Highly recommend!

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 :-)

We last minute decided to go to Tampa with friends to celebrate a birthday. Our dog is old and really can't travel. Samantha stepped up when we were losing hope of being able to go. She took such wonderful care of Milton. She sent us pictures and I could see on his face he was happy. I was able to relax and enjoy the celebration knowing he was being well taken care of. Samantha will be the first person we contact to care for Milt in the future.

Anna is the best and takes such great care of my fur babies when I’m gone for work trips! She is consistently sweet and kind, cleans up after their crazy selves and is gentle with my 21 year old kitty who loves the attention she gives him. I can’t say enough wonderful things!!!

Sherry did a great job with my two cats. She took care of all the responsibilities, plus played with them, plus always sent me pictures and an update on how they were doing. I really appreciated the pictures and her feedback each day on how the day went and how the cats were doing. I definitely recommend Sherry as a great pet sitter!

About: # About Me Hi! I'm Taylor, a lifelong animal lover and the owner of Flagler Paws Pet Sitting. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's something I'm passionate about. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether you're heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. I believe every pet deserves patience, love, and individualized attention, and I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households. I'm comfortable administering basic medications, following detailed care instructions, and providing regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much our animals mean to us. Safety, reliability, and communication are my top priorities. My goal is for both you and your pets to feel comfortable from the very first meeting. ### What You Can Expect * Personalized care tailored to your pet's routine * Plenty of love, playtime, walks, and cuddles * Reliable communication and photo updates * Respect for your home and your pet's schedule * Calm, patient care for shy or anxious pets I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I can't wait to spoil your pets while you're away! As a stay-at-home parent, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive pet care throughout the day. Because I'm home most of the time, I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, as well as vacation care. I intentionally limit the number of families I care for at one time so I can give each pet the attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, medication, or just some extra love and companionship, I'll make sure they stick to their normal routine and feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. **Safety, trust & environment** Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I also treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. For boarding or daycare in my home, I only accept one family's pets at a time to provide a calm, low-stress environment. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and always introduce pets carefully to ensure everyone is comfortable. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away. Communication is important to me, so you'll receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind that your pet is happy and well cared for.

I was quite skeptical about hiring a pet sitter coming into my house while I’m on vacation. Normally my brother would come, but he wasn’t available. I came across the Rover app and decided to see what it was all about. I filled out what I needed for my pet and had responses in a short period of time. I set up a meet and greet with William and felt like he would work out. When he came for the meeting I seen the interaction he had and decided to book him. Still a bit hesitant I had no other choice and said either I would have to trust and feel comfortable with William or cancel my trip. I dropped off the keys to him the day before and went on my trip. I received updates on his arrival/departure times and pictures of my Colbie throughout my trip. I felt relieved that I could enjoy my vacation. I really appreciate William and won’t hesitate to use Rover in the future. I can make plans knowing that Rover has people who are genuinely caring towards your pet.

About: I grew up with dogs, after that I got my own dogs and I still own a great dog! I have always trained my dogs and I spend a lot of time walking, grooming and playing with the dog. We don't have a fenced in back yard, but we walk the dog at least 3 times a day. I have a home bakery so I am very flexible in my time. I spend a lot of time with our animals in and outside our home I spend most of my time in the living room where the pet will be. I will play with the pet and give it all of my attention. The pet will be a part of our family when it is here

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.

About: Welcome Home Doodles & More Resort! Caring for Doodles isn’t just something I do—it’s my passion. I share my home with a family of Poodles, have hands-on knowledge of breeding and puppy development, and have rescued and rehabilitated several Doodles over the years. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of their unique personalities, energy levels, grooming needs, and the love and structure they thrive on. I provide a safe, loving, home-based environment exclusively for Poodles and Doodle breeds. Unlike a traditional kennel, your dog becomes part of our family. I intentionally accept only a limited number of guests so every doodle receives personalized attention, plenty of exercise, enrichment, cuddles, and supervised play. Our large, securely fenced yard features premium artificial turf that stays clean year-round and provides a comfortable place to run and play. For dogs that enjoy the water, we also offer supervised pool time in our private pool, which is fully secured with a child safety gate and is never used without my direct supervision. You’ll receive daily photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your pup is happy, safe, and having fun. My goal is to provide a true home-away-from-home where every doodle is treated like one of my own. ***IMPORTANT: For the health and safety of all pets in our care, proof of current Rabies and Distemper/Parvo vaccinations is required before drop-off. Owners must also disclose the flea/tick prevention product their pet is currently using and the date the most recent dose was administered. Pets without current vaccination records or the required flea and tick information cannot be accepted. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home and set my own schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My own family of Poodles and Doodles enjoys regular potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment, so your doodle will naturally become part of our daily routine. With supervised socialization, plenty of exercise, and lots of love, your pup will feel like a member of the family—not just a guest. 🐾 Your dog’s safety always comes first. I have separate fenced yard areas to allow dogs to get comfortable with one another before supervised introductions. My main yard is fully fenced with premium artificial turf, and my screened pool area is secured with a child safety gate. Pool time is always one-on-one and directly supervised. I intentionally limit the number of dogs I care for so each guest receives personalized attention in a safe, loving home.

About: I grew up with my own family dog and also took care of friend’s dogs in my teen years. Once I moved out I adopted my own dog and cat. I previously worked at an animal shelter. I’m currently working 4 days a week and have completely open availability on my days off! I’d love to fill my time by taking care of your pets with the same amount of care I give my own. The most important thing to me is that your pet feels safe in my presence! I am happy to follow any and all instructions given for how to make your pet feel like there’s been no shift in their routine.

About: I’m attentive, patient, and comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs — from young to senior, and from calm to high-energy. I’m able to provide gentle senior pet care, including slower walks, extra monitoring, and keeping routines consistent. I’m also comfortable cleaning up accidents or “oops” moments without stress, keeping your pet and home clean and comfortable. If needed, I can administer medications as directed and always make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away. If you want, I can also make a slightly shorter version in case Rover has character limits. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for consistent, attentive pet care. I have reliable transportation and strong common-sense judgment when it comes to animal safety, behavior, and comfort. I’m dependable, observant, and focused on making sure your pets are well cared for, safe, and happy while you’re away. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. While I don’t offer in-home boarding, you can trust that I will respect your home, follow your routines closely, and maintain a calm, safe, and loving atmosphere for your pet. I’m attentive, trustworthy, and use good judgment to ensure your pet is secure, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I've grown up around several pets, including cats, dogs, and even some very sensitive goldfish. I've dealt with puppies, family dogs, and even senior pets as well, monitoring them and making sure they stay out of trouble. A lot, if not all of the pets I've had (including dogs and cats alike) have been troublemakers or just really eccentric, and I've had to deal with dogs getting into flour or cats playing fetch. I'm a huge animal lover, having volunteered at local shelters, helping out my neighborhood strays, and even picking local geckos out of the neighbor's glue traps. Most if not all of my college classes are during the early day, and aside from that I have very little going on in my actual life. I'm a huge homebody and don't get out much, so my schedule is extremely flexible and also adjustable to a scenario. I have dogs at home that I care for, including a less than a year old shnoodle who drives me insane. I let them out frequently, feed them as soon as they know it's time, and give them plenty of attention. I keep a close eye on dogs and also ensure that they aren't neglected, as I don't have the heart to do so to any pet in the first place! If a pet gets into trouble, I don't hit them or anything of the sort, as even the thought of it breaks my heart. I've been caring for dogs in my own home when my grandparents and family members leave for vacations, which can be up to two weeks of a period where I am caring for the dogs in my home. I also take care of my neighbor's cat, and also made sure to give him proper care when he got in a scuffle with an opposing street cat.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Palm Coast

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Palm Coast on Rover is $22.2 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 860 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palm Coast. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Palm Coast 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 Palm Coast. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

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.
