“Daniella was AMAZING with my senior pup. She was open to and followed all my instructions which allowed Oreo to warmed up to her very quickly! She is punctual and send LOADS of pictures which helped my anxiety. It was my first time using this app and with short notice. Just beyond grateful for her support stopping in. Also I forgot to mention how attentive she is and asked me questions if she saw Oreo doing anything that may seem abnormal.”

“There are a lot of choices on Rover and it’s is hard to know who is the best for your pet. Look no further because Daisy is the full package. She is responsible, professional and great was terrific with my cat. Daisy was on time every day and spent time with Leo outside. All feedings went great because of Daisy’s attention to detail and care. She took the time to learn his routine and to bond with Leo. Daisy was a loving and responsive caregiver. I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
About: I bring over 10 years of hands-on animal care experience, working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, Cats, birds and reptiles. My background includes serving as an Animal Control Sergeant for a local government shelter for five years. In this role, I was responsible for the daily care and handling of shelter animals, including walking, feeding, and monitoring their health. I also conducted investigations into animal welfare cases and responded to “manner of keeping” concerns, which gave me extensive experience reading animal behavior and ensuring safe, appropriate handling in a wide range of situations. In addition, I worked as an in-home foster for service dog organizations, raising and training puppies for approximately 14 months at a time. This experience required consistency, patience, and attention to detail, including early stage training, socialization, and preparing dogs for advanced service work. Outside of my professional roles, I have been dog sitting and providing pet care services for over a decade. I am experienced in managing multiple dogs at once, including those with special diets, medications, and unique care needs. I also have a strong working knowledge of animal health and have collaborated closely with veterinarians. I am trained to recognize signs of medical distress and can respond appropriately in emergency situations to ensure pets receive prompt care. As a dog owner myself, I currently care for five rescue dogs ranging from 8 to 80 pounds, giving me daily, hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I am confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments and pride myself on providing safe, reliable, and attentive care. I work remotely, which allows me to maintain a highly flexible schedule throughout the day. I am able to provide consistent care and multiple visits as needed, including morning, midday, and evening check ins. I keep my service area intentionally focused so I can ensure reliability, punctuality, and high quality care for each client. If preferred, I am also available for in home pet sitting, allowing me to provide attentive, continuous care and companionship while maintaining your pet’s normal routine. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every animal in my care is always my top priority. I am happy to follow each pet’s established routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or any specific instructions provided by the owner. I am comfortable walking dogs on leash with proper control and supervision, as well as allowing safe outdoor time in fenced-in yards when appropriate. I approach every animal with patience and attentiveness, ensuring they feel secure, respected, and well cared for at all times.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Leah! She took such wonderful care of our two girls, Fern and Celena, while my husband and I were away. From the very beginning, she was punctual, reliable, and incredibly professional, which gave us so much peace of mind. She sent tons of photos and updates throughout our trip, and it was clear from every picture just how happy and relaxed Fern and Celena were. It meant the world to us to see them so comfortable and well cared for. She truly spoiled them with pets, attention, and treats — and they absolutely adored her! It’s obvious how much she genuinely loves animals, and that made all the difference. We came home to two very content, well-loved cats. We would recommend her without hesitation and will definitely be booking her again. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our girls Leah! 🐾”
About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover with personal and hands-on experience caring for dogs. I adopted my dog when he was 4 months old and he’s now 3 years old. I trained him myself, and he’s very sweet, friendly, and well-behaved. Caring for him taught me a lot about patience, routines, and understanding dogs’ different needs and personalities. I’ve also dog sat for other dogs before outside of Rover, so I’m comfortable with caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your dog, and I’ll always treat your pet like family. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pup with lots of attention, affection, and patience! Currently working part time, so once i get home all my time go to the pups! Thursday i’m off all day, Saturday available after 3pm and Sundays im off all day as well. Pets roam free around my home with a basket full of toys, i have a crate if needed and two dog parks near my home and even a pet washing station.

Lindsey was great with our 2 dogs while we were out of town for a week in NY. She was always on time for visits and followed our instructions perfectly. We can tell she is an animal lover and she provided many photos and check ins with detail to put us at ease.

I had a fantastic experience with Emily as my Rover sitter. She took amazing care of my dogs for three days and went above and beyond. Emily followed all my instructions, sent the cutest photo updates, and gave my pups so much love. I came home to very happy dogs. Thank you, Emily!
I didn’t worry about anything. Thank you so much Mika for taking care of Zachary. I would definitely recommend Mika and will rebook if I travel again. I had great communication and felt really comfortable. 10 out of 10, so in a nutshell, great communication, sent pics, updates, my dog received the attention I hoped for.
Gemar was fantastic. Communication was quick and clear, and followed all instructions perfectly. Both of my dogs were well-fed, cared for, and genuinely happy when I got home. Gemar handled everything smoothly and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in great hands. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!
Carline once again did a fabulous job pet sitting at my home! She took especially thoughtful and compassionate care of my senior dogs, including Dobby, who is both blind and deaf.

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 Port Saint Lucie 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.
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 Port Saint Lucie 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Port Saint Lucie with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
