About: I have a dog of my own he is very energetic and loves to play which is my favorite thing about him. I love him like he’s my child and i’ll love your dogs the same!!! I have absolutely nothing during the day other then loving your pups and I work most nights from only 4-9! I am open to getting shifts covered if necessary! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and keeping their space clean. In a client’s home, I also respect their house rules and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I give pets plenty of attention and patience so they feel comfortable and cared for in their own environment!!

About: Hi! I'm Vivian, a lifelong dog lover who believes every dog deserves patience, affection, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I'm reliable, communicative, and happy to follow your dog's routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, medication reminders, or lots of cuddles. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, loved, and excited to see me again. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time with your pet throughout the day. Whether your dog needs regular walks, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to keep them company, I'll be there to maintain their routine and make sure they feel comfortable while you're away. Since I'll be caring for your dog in your home, my priority is to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I'll follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I'll also keep your home clean and respected, and I'll send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, attention, and love I give every pet. I know how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone you can trust, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply a calm, comfortable environment. I also keep pet parents updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you’ll always know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your pet—it’s to make them feel safe, loved, and excited to come back every time. I currently have full availability, which means I can be flexible with scheduling and give your pet plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care that fits their needs. Your pet will have plenty of room to run, play, and explore in our large, fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure space for endless fun. Fresh water bowls are placed throughout the yard so your pet always has easy access to water, and there are plenty of shaded areas where they can relax and cool off whenever they need a break. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and right at home during their stay.

About: I started animal care around ten, with things like walking, feeding, bathing, etc. As i’ve gotten older i’ve had many animals of my own from several dogs to even more cats! If i’m not with my own pets I’m certainly helping out with others! I’ve also been studying animal nutrition for about 5 years now. It all started when my cat, Kinya got really ill. I started looking in to healthier foods and treats, to keep up with animals biological needs. All while learning new things everyday about what is best for our pets! I’m currently available as needed right now I am very flexible, just message me to find a great time for you, me and your fur baby! I also have experience in a specialty spa/shop, This included many types of different foods, toys, treats and supplements. I was around dogs, cats and other pets constantly! My job was to educate pet parents on healthy lifestyles for their pets. I have a Australian Shepard puppy named Versai, and two cats named Kyro and Kinya! Can’t wait to meet all of you

About: I have had many dogs since I was born and have owned many animals including hamsters and snakes. I have treated minor illnesses in dogs before and know multiple emergency vet offices nearby. I am comfortable giving medicines and keeping strict routines and diets. I excel in reading animal body language and understanding and avoiding triggers. I attend College classes Mondays and Wednesdays. I also have a part-time job that I work Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I usually wake up around 7:30 and have a relaxing morning to myself. I spend my free time at home doing school work and hanging out with my dog and cat. I have a 3/4 acre lot with a six foot chain link fence. I have a Shar-pei American Bulldog mix and a Domestic Shorthair cat, both do well with other animals and can be contained if the need arises. Animals get fed twice a day, 1/2 a cup each morning and evening for the puppy and 1/4 cup each morning and evening for the kitty. The animals are let out freely as we have a screened in pool with a dog door. Toys are preferred but if your baby likes the dog park I know of many and am willing to go with them. Animals are not allowed on the furniture but can get plenty of snuggles on the floor!

About: Pets are family, and they deserve the same love, attention, and care they give us every day. As an avid animal lover, nothing makes me happier than providing a safe, comfortable, home-style boarding experience where your pet feels truly at ease. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels — from playful, high-energy pups to senior dogs who prefer a quieter environment. I’m also experienced with administering daily medications and following specific care routines to keep pets happy and healthy. I do work, but I structure my day to ensure dogs receive consistent care, attention, and supervision. Mornings include outdoor time and breakfast, followed by a midday check-in around 12 pm. I’m home for the evening around 4 pm, allowing plenty of time for walks, play, and relaxation together. Your dog will stay in a safe, loving home environment. We have a secure, fully fenced yard with plenty of room for supervised play, exercise, sniffing, or lounging. I have a gentle 3-year-old son who loves animals and is always supervised around pets. He enjoys helping during feeding time and playing fetch. We also have two friendly resident dogs: Brutus (7 lbs), who is calm and laid-back, and Bella (95 lbs), who balances playful energy with downtime. Dogs are introduced thoughtfully to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I provide regular photo updates so you can stay connected and reassured while you’re away.

About: I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including regular feeding routines, water refreshes, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and basic home check-ins. As a cat owner, I’m especially familiar with how different pets can be - some are social right away, while others need space, patience, and a gentle approach. For dogs, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks based on their energy level and comfort. I’ll follow your preferences for leash handling, route, pace, bathroom breaks, and interactions with other dogs or people. I’m available for visits and walks in the mornings before work and anytime after 4:00 PM. This works well for morning potty breaks, breakfast visits, after-work walks, dinner visits, and evening check-ins. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, double-check doors and locks, keep dogs secure on leash, and pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, water intake, or litter box habits. For every visit or walk, I can provide a quick update with photos so you feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I’ve been watching my friends chocolate labrador for the last 10 years he has become part of my family since he’s been a puppy I have great neighbors who also help and spend time with Sammie the chocolate lab since i’ve retired in January 2024 and the fact my favorite dog , Sammie , has passed on to doggie heaven i find myself wanting to help others. i have a few friends who have two golden retrievers who i started watching and find myself wanting to help others out as well. the photo of me and the cute Dachshund who is what i would say is special needs as he has several Anxiety and is allergic to so many many different things. He is on a special diet and takes medication twice a day. It is taking me years to be able to hold him and allow him to trust me. Even though I don’t get to see him as often as I wish as he’s almost 200 miles away but when I do, we have some nice quality time I’ve been watching my friends chocolate labrador for the last 10 years he has become part of my family since he’s been a puppy I have great neighbors who also help and spend time with Sammy the chocolate lab since i’m retired now when i dog sit the dogs get spoiled and have the best of times. as i can devote my days to them to make them feel special and loved by someone who is new to them. my motto is , if i’m on the couch watching tv , the dog will be sitting next to me on the couch. when i go to sleep. the dog is allowed on the bed and i even have stairs so they don’t have to jump. and if allowed i i make homemade frosty paws treats with fresh greek yogurt , peanut butter and bananas and give them to the dogs to enjoy now and then. as long as the owners say it’s okay. as for food from the table. that is a no unless the owners say it’s okay. but it’s only as a treat. and if i have steak bones or pork bones , with owners permission i will give them if i happen to be smoking a pork butt or grilling a steak.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Port Saint Lucie

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Port Saint Lucie on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,045 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Port Saint Lucie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Port Saint Lucie. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 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.
