“Stephanie and Elizabeth were very accommodating. They watched our dogs for a long weekend. When we came home, both dogs were relaxed and happy. We feel like they treated both our home and pups with respect.”
“Lindsey was super! Puppies were happy and well cared for while we were gone and we got regular updates even over a busy Thanksgiving week. Lindsey is an excellent communicator, asking questions about things along the way both prior to and during the pet sitting sessions. She took nice care of the house, and was just wonderful to work with. THANK YOU LINDSEY!”
“Pris stayed in constant contact through caring for our three senior dogs. She was great with them and truly cared for them like they were her own. We'll hire Pris again in a minute when needed. Very easy to work with and nearby so it was easy for all of us.”

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and exotics for many years. Well versed in pet care for any breed and kind of animal. Big fan and friend of all pets alike. I am a part time cosmetologist! I spend 6 hours of my day at the salon and come home to spend the rest of my time with your pets. I have a very friendly but shy chihuahua who would be separated from your furry friend in my home. I can uphold any rules you may follow in your own home for your pets as need be.
“McKayla was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for my dog, Mable, and my cat, Kaiah. Mable is still a puppy with a ton of energy, so she can definitely be a handful, but McKayla was incredibly patient, attentive, and wonderful with her. She also took great care of Kaiah and made sure both pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. What really stood out was her communication. She sent so many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. She was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and kept me informed the entire time. Since she stayed in my home, I also appreciated how respectful and responsible she was. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Coming home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house made all the difference. I would absolutely book McKayla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“If I could give a 100 ⭐️ rating for Cole I definitely would. I had a family reunion in another state to attend and my Molly is not only my emotional support animal but she’s also getting older and dealing with senior dog issues with hearing and seeing and getting weak in her back legs and I was panicking about leaving her in a kennel when my concierge sent me some people who could stay at my home and take care of her I carefully reviewed the list and immediately Cole stood out and I had a feeling in my heart he’s the one! We met before leaving town so he could meet Molly and she would get to know him a little and not be afraid. He kept in constant contact while we were gone and sent pictures of her cuddling with him. My heart just melted 🥰 We got home from our trip and Molly wasn’t expecting us and barked and backed up like we were strangers lol because she wanted Cole back. My husband and I are so very grateful and thankful for Cole and would highly recommend him for anyone who may need a dog/home sitter he’s a genuine person who truly loves and cares about our furry kids 🐶💖 I don’t know how to thank him enough for his kindness and love for our girl while we were gone.🙏🏻”

About: My name is Heidi and I am a kind, gentle and compassionate person who loves all animals and people. I stumbled upon this opportunity Just about 7 years ago and it is the best job ever!! I love getting to meet all different breeds and getting to know each dogs' personality but the best part is being able to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet while you are away. I am also a mother to an amazing son named Caleb who is 16 yrs old and absolutely adores all of the dogs we care for. Being able to share this experience with my son is probably one of the most rewarding parts of this job. He has learned so much about caring for dogs and about being compassionate for others. We treat all of the animals we care for as our own. I do work a full time job that consists of mostly night 4pm to 1am but also contains some morning shifts 10:00am to 7pm, I do have two full days off a week which is usually Wednesday and Thursday. We will care for your pets as if they are our own. Please let me know what their normal care routines are and we will follow them. We want them to be comfortable and loved during your time away.
About: I have had an animal in my house since I was born. At the most I was caring for my 3 cats and dog. I am comfortable walking both large and smaller dogs. Additionally, I love cats and would be comfortable caring for them as well. I will love your animals as if they were my own fur babies. I live in Bradenton, Florida and im currently a remote law student working from Home. I look forward to meeting some animals and taking care of them as if they were my own! The house is smoke free, child free and animal free. There is a pool here if your dog is a big swimmer and large backyard they can run around and play fetch in.
“Debra did a great job watching my 2 pups and cat. She was timely and attentive to their needs. One of my dogs is slow to warm up to some people and she made sure he felt comfortable.”
“This was our first time working with Jonathan as our pet/house sitter and it was a great experience. We were grateful that he was willing to stop by a second time before our trip so we could have the peace of mind that our dog would recognize him and be comfortable. He also sent us updates and pics every couple days and the house was just as clean as we left it. Couldn’t ask for more!”

Alina was great! She was available for a couple of last minute requests and my dog likes her so much I think we will now be repeat clients. She is very patient, and kept me inform every day about my dog's behavior (my shelter dog is getting old and sometimes is taking longer to "warm up" to strangers now). I highly recommend Alina. She is sweet, kind, reliable and great with gaining your pet's trust :)
Megan was fantastic with our two dogs. She sent plenty of updates and photos, and made sure they were happy and comfortable. I really appreciate how attentive and easy to communicate with she was. You can tell she truly loves the animals she cares for. I’d definitely use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Palma Sola
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Palma Sola on Rover is $53.84 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,022 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Palma Sola. 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 Palma Sola 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 Palma Sola 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 Palma Sola 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.

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.
