“Savannah provided great communication prior to our scheduled visit and took good care of my senior dog Gracie. Definitely would book again and recommend to others.”
“If I could give Alyssa 100 stars, I absolutely would! I can’t even begin to explain how amazing she was as a pet sitter for my 3-month-old puppy. I was honestly so nervous about leaving my puppy because she’s still so little, but Alyssa made the entire experience so stress-free and reassuring. She was incredibly attentive, sent me updates throughout the day, and made sure my puppy felt loved and cared for. I even have a little pet camera facing my puppy’s crate, and seeing Alyssa playing with, cuddling, and spending time with her all day made me feel so much better. You can genuinely tell that she loves what she does and truly enjoys caring for animals. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my puppy. I’m so grateful for how wonderful she was, and I would 100% trust her with my puppy again. Thank you so much, Alyssa! You were absolutely amazing! 🥹🤍”
“Alexa was great! She looked after our dog and cat for a couple nights, and gave us great updates. This was our dogs first time with a house sitter, and she made it a great experience for him!”

About: My husband and I have had animals 34 years of our 35 years of marriage. My husband grew up with many animals and each one he meets always especially loves him. He is retired and we are empty nesters now without an animal, so we offered to watch several friends animals when they were on vacation. We enjoyed the experiences so much that a friend suggested we should be official dog and cat sitters, then referred us to this service. I work full time in Ponte Vedra and my husband is retired. He loves animals so he has all day to feed, walk, and play with your dog and cat. When I come home I enjoy playing with them too. When we have watched our friends’ animals, they wrote out instructions that we followed. As former educators, we are very adept at following detailed instructions. The friends left important routine or special needs information and the veterinarian’s contact.
About: I’m a dependable, caring, and responsible pet lover who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe and well cared for when you’re away. I’m comfortable following detailed routines, keeping up with feeding and walking schedules, giving lots of attention and affection, and making sure pets feel comfortable in their own environment. I’m also very reliable when it comes to communication, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs a walk, companionship during the day, or someone trustworthy to care for your home and pets while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and respect I’d want for my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and am used to planning my day around the needs of others. I’m able to make time for regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, and overnight care when needed. I’m very organized and dependable, so I make sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I also enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so walks and visits are something I genuinely look forward to rather than something I have to fit in. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is kept as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications if needed, playtime, and any special routines your pet is used to. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I make sure everything is kept clean, secure, and comfortable while you’re away. I also give pets plenty of attention and affection while still respecting their personality and boundaries. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

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 Valley 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 Valley 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 Valley 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
