“Emma cared for our two energetic medium sized dogs in our home. They were very comfortable with her and she sent pictures throughout her stay. Very pleased and would book with Emma again.”
“Dylan was wonderful with our pets! This was our first time leaving our dog so we were a bit nervous but our dog loved him! He took such great care of them and sent picture which we appreciated immensely. Definitely recommend and will be booking again for our next trip.”

“Justine was a fantastic dog sitter! She kept us updated with photos and put us at ease that our Georgie was well taken care of and in good hands. Justine is someone you can count on to be there and without worrying throughout your time away from your buddy.”
About: I've cared for friends and family's dogs for a while now. It is important to me to keep your pet(s) on their schedule, provide enrichment, exercise, attention and safe play while under my watch. I enjoy keeping up on training exercises with younger pups and the slower days of senior dogs. I have my own 3 year old pup as my first dog. She is a lab mix mutt and is off-leash trained, affectionate, curious and playful! I was unable to have dogs or cats growing up due to family members allergies. My availability at this time is weekends; whether it's a Friday night late night and you just need someone to sit with your pup(s) or a full weekend of pet sitting in your home. My goal is to keep your pet safe and comfortable at all times, treating them as if they were my own. At home, my doors and gates are secure or the dog is leashed, no exceptions! My 2nd dog is an escape artist, so that was a very fast lesson to learn. I'm looking to build a great rapport with my clients and their four-legged family members. I want to create peace of mind for the pet owner while they are in my care. The feeling of knowing you have a reliable and dependable pet caregiver is so important to me, I'd want the same for my pups.
“Benjamin is tentative, kind, and caring with Maizie. I’ve used rover in the past and it’s safe to say he goes beyond the standard of taking care of your pup.”
“Right from the Meet and Greet we were very impressed with Michael - he asked some great questions about our dogs and their behaviors/routines that were an immediate indication he knows dogs well. We have two Australian Shepherds, an older Aussie with some reactivity, and a younger Aussie who is still in training and with tons of energy. He kept them engaged, active, and worked on some training. If he can manage our crazy boys, I'm confident he can handle just about any dogs! He provided dog/house sitting for 1 night/2 days, and we're already booking him for future trips.”
“Alexandra is the very best sitter we have ever had for our dogs. She sent tons of photos and videos. It was clear that the dogs had a great time. And as a bonus, our home was sparkling clean when we returned. Would give 20 stars if I could. ♥️?♥️”
About: I have 15 years of experience pet sitting & caring for all kinds of animals! Cats, Dogs, Hamsters, Birds, Lizards, Snakes, Bunnies, Fish, Etc. Looking forward to providing a fun, loving experience for your fur baby. I work for myself & can easily work your pet care needs into my schedule! Feel free to message me any of your schedule questions/needs! I currently live & travel in an RV full time! Because of this I provide pet care in the comfort of your own home! Anything you need to make sure your fur baby is properly cared for, I can handle.
“Erica was amazing! She took great care of my cat and sent constant updates. She was even kind enough to take out the trash for us and brought packages in! I will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!”
About: I am an avid dog (and cat!) lover and have had experience working with other various types of animals over the course of the last 12 years! I previously was a dog trainer and have been trained to work with dog aggression and handling anxious dogs. Currently I own one dog and two cats. My dog’s name is Dzeko and he does well with a variety of animals. My three cats are named The Girl and Malenia. I love hiking and running so I can exercise your energetic pup as much as needed! If you have questions or need help with your dog’s behavior we can also discuss training. I currently work Monday through Thursday in the mornings and wrap up around noon, which leaves me with plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or just spending time with your pets. My weekends are completely open as well. I intentionally keep my schedule flexible and would love to combine my free time with caring for pets. I’m also available for house sitting, so I can provide more consistent care and keep your pets company throughout the day if needed. I try to keep everything as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away! I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely, and I’m very attentive to behavior changes or anything that seems off. I’m clean and respectful of your space! I’m also mindful about safety, making sure doors, gates, and any pet specific precautions are always handled properly. I also like to stay in touch and send updates/photos so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for while you’re away!
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. Animals naturally feel calm around me, and I treat every pet like my own with plenty of play, walks, and affection. I currently work part-time during weekdays and am available for drop-ins and walks around 1 PM in D.C., as well as evenings and nights during weekdays and weekends. Let’s communicate and I’ll do everything in my power to make it work for you and your pet! I treat every pet like family. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and relaxed. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for, and I’m happy to send updates and photos while you’re away.
“Lindsay really helped us out when another sitter canceled on us last minute. She was able to accommodate a meet and greet even though it was late and she was so kind and friendly with our dogs. She sent pictures and updates to give us peace of mind and correctly managed their medications/supplements. We are really grateful for her help!”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I'm pretty flexible, so if your dog has any special needs, or if there's anywhere in particular you'd like your dog to visit, just let me know. I'm currently working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I can do anytime, any day. I will accept same day visits as well. I have one dog at home. His name is Freddie and very friendly. I have a fenced in yard and a crate if it is needed.
“Liz and Rich were so great with my 3 rescue dogs. I really appreciated having people I trust stay at our house and care for our dogs while we were away. They sent updates and pics the whole time. Even our nervous German shepherd played with them and looked so happy. Will happily book them again!”
“Antoinette was AMAZING with my dog Rocky while I was on vacation and I highly recommend her. I found her thru Rover. She came to my house before I left to meet Rocky and to go over everything. My dog has skin allergies which he takes medication for so she gave him meds overnight. Rocky was a little upset the first day she watched him and didn’t want to eat. I had never left him before. She contacted me immediately and we came up with a plan and it worked. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day of Rocky which I appreciated. I will use her again in the future.”
About: I take your pet’s routine seriously—and their little quirks personally. I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my life, and friends trust me to care for their pets while they’re away, including a British Shorthair cat and a dog. I know that feeling comfortable means more than a full food bowl: it means familiar routines, patience, attention, and company they actually enjoy. Whether your pet loves a long sniff-filled walk, endless playtime, or someone quietly sitting nearby, I’ll follow their lead. I’ll respect your instructions, keep you updated with photos, and pay attention to the little things you tell me matter. My goal is simple: a happy, comfortable pet—and you enjoying your time away without wondering how they’re doing. I can walk dog and feed cats anywhere from 7.30 am to 3 pm and 3.30 pm to 11 pm. Working from home so my schedule can be flexible I make a pet feels like home. I have a water fountain and can follow any diet restriction if needed. I have a three story town house and usually pets are on the first floor

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riviera Beach
Emma was great with our pups! She kept our 4-month pup and our 12-year old entertained. They can be a handful since that puppy has so much energy and loves playing with our old lady, but she mostly wants to sleep and not be bothered. We are so glad we found Emma and we will definitely book her again :)
Miranda has been walking our dogs for several months, and she is absolutely wonderful! She is always on time, communicates well, takes them on nice long walks, and sends us the best pictures. We recently trusted her to stay in our home and care for them overnight for an entire weekend, and she did an amazing job. Our dogs had a great time, and we felt completely comfortable knowing they were receiving such loving, attentive care. Miranda is dependable, trustworthy, and genuinely wonderful with our dogs. We highly recommend her!
Danielle won over our somewhat cranky 15-yr-old Stanley with patience and kindness. She regularly communicated with us during her 2-day/overnight stay. We were able to really enjoy our time away, knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely try to book with Danielle in the future!
Emily is the best! We have two new rescues that came from a bad situation, so they are understandably skittish and our older rescue is still hesitant of strangers, so her background as a vet tech made us very comfortable leaving them with her. We normally have to do multiple meet and greets to help warm everyone up to a new person, but on her first meet and greet all of our pups were out with wagging tails. This tells you how gentle Emily’s energy is. We have booked Emily twice and she has been incredible. She communicates and sends plenty of updates and makes sure everyone is taken care of. You can’t go wrong booking with her; your animals with appreciate it!
AMAZING! Abigail respected the property, follow instructions, she was the sweetest and so patients with my doggos. Truly grateful for her kindness, and for being available last minute. Let me know everything, and comunicate very good with me. 100% recommended!
Kristiana is my all time favorite pet sitter! She stays in my house when I’m out of town and takes the best care of my two little dogs. She is very clean and always leaves my place the way it was when she got here. I’ve used her plenty of times and recommend her to all my friends looking for a pet or house sitter.
Erica is ABSOLUTELY A GEM!!!! I had to to go in for surgery and it was the first time I had to be away from Harley, the first time I talked to her she put my mind at ease & on the meet & greet she& Harley were a perfect match. There are no words to express my gratitude for the care and love she has given to Harley during his stay with her. He's made a friend for life and I will definitely be using Erica in the future. Thank you Erica, your the best!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Riviera Beach is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $54 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,676 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Riviera Beach. 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 Riviera Beach 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 Riviera Beach 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 Riviera Beach 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Riviera Beach. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
