She stayed overnight and made sure Lucy got her meds on time, sent daily pics and was even accommodating with our flight schedule changes to make sure Lucy was cared for. I will definitely be using Brooke again in the future.”

About: I have experience fostering dogs and children. I'm home all day and will treat your dog as one of the family or pack.

About: Taking care of my childhood dog for 10 yrs. I’ve fostered several cats throughout my life. I’ve taken care of my parents Amazon Parrot as well. On 1/4/24 i got a puppy, her name is Indigo. 🥰 My professional experience includes having worked at Petcoral Veterinary Hospital and Resort doing boarding and sitting in daycare along with helping veterinarians administer meds, do anal glands, nail trimming, bathing & etc. My partner would be joining me to care for any pets. This is mostly for my own safety/comfort & it helps me to have an extra set of hands. She is a Licensed Massage Therapist who loves animals. I do Rover & Wag full time since my passions are for working with animals. Pet care fits into my daily routine because working with animals is my passion. I enjoy the freedom of working on Rover and the enjoyment i feel when meeting new pets/people. I'm happy to do whatever you need me to for your pet/s and make sure all their needs are taken care of. I love animals & i love to travel so pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I love meeting new dogs/cats & getting to know their unique personalities. I care for pets by making sure they're fulfilled physically and mentally. Whether its petting them as much as they want or playing with them, i wanna become one of their favorite humans to spend time with.

About: CLEAN, NON SMOKING, HOME – Private Fenced Yard ~ Dog sitting is part of my business called Gail’s Personal Assistant Services. Please INCLUDE A CONTACT NUMBER IN YOUR INITIAL MESSAGE. I prefer communicating by phone or text. I have two small dogs, a Havashu and a Westie. My back yard is fenced and safe. I sit for many clients who come to the island and stay at inns that do not allow dogs. I have great references. It’s nice to know that while you are here playing, your fur-baby is also having a grand time. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all my life. I should say I am an animal lover. I've had cats in my past also. My mother had dogs in our home, so I was raised with them. About my yard It is a fenced in yard, not too large, but big enough for them to play and run around. My experience administering medication Yes. As I have two pups of my own, I have experience in doing this job. I have administered medication to my client's pups when they needed it. My Overnight Stays An overnight stay is 24 hours. If you are gone over the 24 hour period for the one stay, then there is an additional charge for a day care stay. I have loads of time to play with your pups! I'm home most of the time except for some errands. They will love it here with my two! I let my pet run free and they are allowed to sleep with me. I can also crate your pet if that is how you have trained him/her.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have family that has all different kinds of pets! Dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it! I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them. I just graduated high school at Mariner High School with Bright Futures and will be attending FAU in August! I’m currently working as a Food Runner at Slipaway in Cape Coral. I’m very responsible about making sure my dog is fed, entertained, and healthy which I would do for any animal. I always love to play with my friend’s animals when I visit because I see how much they love the connection too!
“Lia did a great job with our three big dogs. She was timely on the day we had the meet and greet. My dogs loved her. She was also right on time the day we left for our trip. She took great care of our pets and sent us lots of pics and updates. We had some major travel delays on our return date. Lia was completely understanding about our very late return.”
“Emily was great! She was very communicative and made sure to ask questions if there was anything she wasn’t sure of and also to make sure the boys had an easy transition to being cared for by her! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Terri was great with my babies. She sent me pictures often and kept me updated on how they were doing. When I returned home, my apartment was still clean and well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”
“They both came over to our house to meet our dog before hand and reassured us Bella would be well taken care of and by day two with our dog she eating and playing with their dogs! Highly recommend especially if your dog needs a bit more love and attention when you're away.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pine Island Center
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pine Island Center on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 928 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pine Island Center. 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 Pine Island Center 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 Pine Island Center 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 Pine Island Center 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
