“Carissa is very sweet and knowledgeable. She took great care of our 4 cats, one of which has to be separated from the other due to being FIV+. She made sure they were rotated and got time out of their rooms and provided updates with pictures of our babies. I’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Jaycee was great to work with! We appreciated her enthusiasm to work with our cats. Jaycee was very flexible and communicative with us which made it a breeze to work with her. She is very experienced with cats which made us more at ease with having her take care of them. She even persisted with attempting to give our grumpy old cat medicine.

About: Hey! I'm Carly. I'm new to the area staying with family and absolutely love animals. I'd love to be part of your dog's walk/jog routine because right now I go for walks by myself and might as well take yours along for some exercise and to sniff the neighborhood! If you’re looking for trustworthy, stress-free care, I’d love to support you and your pup. I make my own schedule and work from home, so I'd love to include your animal in my routine. I'm used to animals around all the time and enjoy living life nearby them! ✨ Respectful, Low-Impact Home Care • I follow all house rules exactly as written • I keep things tidy and leave your space as I found it (often better) • Lights, locks, gates, crates, and feeding routines are double-checked • I’m mindful of noise, your neighbors, and overall security 🐾 Consistent, Calm Pet Care • I maintain your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible • I observe subtle changes in mood, appetite, and behavior • I make sure pets get the right amount of attention, rest, and play • Medications, special diets, or senior care are handled with reliability and care

About: I have been a dog owner my whole life, and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, special needs (lots of medication) dogs, and working with multiple dogs at one time. My favorite part about working with dogs is being able to run and play with them. I am available early mornings and late nights. I also love trail walking/running, so I'll make sure your dog gets the exercise they need! I follow a rigorous routine of walking/running with my own dogs, and will take the same care with yours! Typically, I work from Tuesday through Saturday in an office. Generally, I can provide morning walks, and afternoon into evening care. Lunch time walks may be dependent of location! Caring for other dogs involves building trust through playtime, walks, and of course, treats! Making sure your dog is comfortable on walks and overnights is the top most priority.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I currently work as a Kennel Assistant at an animal clinic, where I care for dogs and cats every day. This professional experience has strengthened my skills in handling pets of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities while paying close attention to their comfort, safety, and daily routines. I also have a degree in Biology from Moscow State University and hands-on experience training service dogs. At home, I have two dogs of my own—a French Bulldog and a Chihuahua—and over the years I’ve cared for many other breeds as well. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication reminders, or simply a calm and caring companion, I’ll treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own pets. My goal is for every dog or cat to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m organized, dependable, and able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. I always make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and each pet’s personality and comfort level. I want every pet to feel as relaxed and cared for as possible. Working in a veterinary clinic has also taught me to recognize changes in a pet’s behavior or condition and respond calmly and appropriately if something seems unusual.

“Andrea did an awesome job watching our 4 cats while we were on vacation for a week. We loved her detailed daily updates and photos of our fur babies. She did a great job keeping the litter boxes clean and also had no problem giving one of our senior cats a daily kidney supplement with his food. She played with and brushed the kitties daily, and she was also able to grab our mail and packages. We definitely recommend her!”

About: I have experience within the veterinary industry including basic animal health, senior care, special diagnosis pets, post-op pets, emergency care, and more. I have a bachelors degree in animal sciences and have decided to go back to school to finish my vet schools prerequisites and am trying to turn pet sitting into a source of income for me! I am currently taking classes for 3 hours in Melbourne Monday-Thursday but otherwise my schedule is free for visits, mid-day walks for busy workers, and overnight stays. I only offer in-home pet sitting. Your pets should feel comfortable in their own home and I will make sure everything has been cleaned and is spotless before you come home.

About: Hello Pet Parents! My name is Kayleen, and animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I work from home and provide attentive care for pets of all ages, with a special love for senior pets, rescue animals, shy cats, and anxious dogs. Over the years, I've worked in veterinary hospitals, provided professional pet sitting and dog walking services, volunteered with rescue organizations, and cared for animals both in the United States and abroad. My experience includes dogs, cats, puppies, senior pets, rescue animals, and pets who need medication or a little extra patience and understanding. I previously worked with Paws to Consider in Boston, providing dog walks, overnight stays, cat care, medication support, and regular updates for pet parents. I've also volunteered with rescue organizations including Everglades Angels Dog Rescue in Florida, Care for Dogs in Thailand, and The Dog Squad in India. Because I work from home, I'm able to provide lots of attention, companionship, and updates throughout the day. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for and to give you peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling through an online program while also working remotely as an Internal Family Systems (IFS) Practitioner and Mental Health Coach. Because both my studies and work are conducted remotely, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable and attentive pet care throughout the week. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle and is something I genuinely enjoy. My schedule allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. I spend much of my time working from home, which enables me to provide pets with companionship, supervision, exercise, and consistent care. Throughout my career in animal care, veterinary settings, rescue work, and pet sitting, I have learned that animals thrive on routine, patience, and positive attention. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, medication administration, enrichment activities, or simply a calm and caring presence, I take pride in providing reliable, individualized care that helps them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. As someone who works professionally in a helping role, I value responsibility, communication, trust, and attention to detail. Pet parents can expect timely updates, photos, and the peace of mind that their beloved companion is receiving compassionate, attentive care I understand that our pets are family members, and that trusting someone to care for them, and to enter your home, is a big decision. I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their people. I believe quality pet care goes beyond feeding and walks; it involves understanding each animal's unique personality, routine, preferences, and emotional needs. I take the time to learn what helps your pet feel comfortable, secure, and happy so I can maintain as much consistency as possible while you are away. I also treat every client's home with the utmost respect and care. Having lived, traveled, and cared for animals in many different homes and environments throughout the United States and abroad, I understand that every household has its own routines, expectations, and way of doing things. I strive to honor those preferences and leave your home exactly as you would expect. Before providing care, I like to discuss your pet's routines, behaviors, medical needs, safety concerns, and any special instructions so we can create a plan tailored to your pet and your family's needs. Clear communication helps ensure the highest level of safety, wellbeing, and peace of mind for everyone involved. Above all, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and cared for, and for you to feel confident knowing they are in compassionate, reliable hands. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds ever since I was young. I’ve dog sat for family and friends, I’ve worked at a dog grooming/boarding. I had my own dog for 15 wonderful years. I also have experience with cats and reptiles. I’m happy to watch any critter you may have! I’m currently working full time as a server. I have evenings available. Eventually I’d like to cut back on serving and focus more on pet sitting. I do not offer in-home services as I currently live in an apartment. If need be I can stay at your home. I like to keep your pets on as normal of a schedule as possible. Over the years I have seen the benefits of a daily routine for animals. They are already missing their people. Being able to stay in a familiar environment with their normal routine helps alleviate some of that anxiety. I am also willing to even stop by walk and feed them if that is what you need.

I was very nervous about leaving my blind 16 yo kitty with Chronic Kidney Disease. I canceled my last vacation 4 months ago because he was declining. Just prior to this very short trip, he had barely been eating. Isabella followed my special feeding instructions perfectly. I came home to a kitty who was very happy to see me and vice versa. Thank you Isabella!

We are 1st time users of the Rover app and I have to report, we will be using this service again. Meghan was the best caretaker for our baby. We made arrangements for Meghan to stop in every morning to feed and water our Cat Philly. She even let the baby out every morning on the enclosed lanai to get some sun, which is actually his routine ever morning. She was fantastic with him and he loved her. Thanks again for everything Meghan!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Palm Shores

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Palm Shores is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $34 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 581 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Palm Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Palm Shores. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
