⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+++ animal care provider. We absolutely loved Louren and the care that she provided for our pups. She came and stayed in our home. She treated our home and our dogs like they were her own. I highly recommend her to care for pets wants and needs. She even fed our fish for us. I cannot say enough good things about her. She is fabulous. She responds quickly to texts. She sends you videos of your animals and she follows the instructions that you provide for her to the T. Give her a try! You will not be disappointed!!!

About: Hi, I’m Lourie! I offer calm, compassionate, and dependable care for your pets—because to me, they’re family. With decades of experience and a genuine love for animals, I’m here to give your furry friend the same love and attention you would. After 20+ years in the corporate world, I followed my heart and began working with animals. I've spent years pet sitting for friends, family, and colleagues, and I now work with a local dog rescue and serve as secretary for a local animal welfare nonprofit. I have a soft spot for senior pets and animals who need a little extra patience, but I also enjoy helping energetic pups and kittens burn off energy and build confidence. I’m comfortable giving medications, maintaining routines, and tailoring care to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s a short drop-in, a long walk, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Let’s connect—I’d love to meet you and your pet! I work remotely with a local dog rescue, so caring for animals is a natural part of my daily life. This allows me to maintain a consistent, attentive presence and provide reliable care for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I intentionally keep my schedule balanced to ensure each pet receives calm, focused attention without feeling rushed or overlooked. I place a strong emphasis on maintaining routines, helping pets feel secure, comfortable, and at ease while you’re away. I provide personalized overnight care in your home, where pets feel most secure in their familiar environment and routine. Staying in their own space allows for a calm, low-stress experience while you’re away. I take a thoughtful, attentive approach to each visit, ensuring your pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times. I’m respectful of your home and routines, and I prioritize clear communication so you always feel informed and at ease. I’m happy to work with you to create a customized care plan that aligns with your pet’s needs and your preferences.

About: Have had animals in my life since I was a baby, ranging from dogs to hamsters to birds and many cats. Fostered kittens in college with my best friend and volunteered at HALO in high school, would love to be around animals again! I currently work full-time from Tues-Fri but have my weekends free and typically evenings! I’m a big time reader, so even if i’m stopping in to give them some company it’s no problem, I’ve got a book I can get lost in with some company. I typically will not be able to house any pets currently but am more than happy to come by your place to keep them comfortable in their space.

About: I have experience from my own pets throughout the years and being a vet tech for 7+ years. I have experience with cats and dogs. I can take care of them young or old. Just let me know your routines and i will try to fill the void while you are gone. I work at an animal hospital during the day so I can stop in before work, on my lunch break and after work, whichever you prefer. Im not offering home services at the moment, but if you would like me to stop in and make sure your pet has the best care. Also if medications are needed to be given, please let me know. I can do so and also make sure no love is lost when you are gone. I love animals and its one of the reasons why I got into the Vet field.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years. I’ve been doing it regularly for going on two years. I use word of mouth, testimonials and social media to connect with clients I work 7:30am-3:30pm M-F so most of my care would take place before work, after work and on weekends. I can only stay in your home. I love to walk dogs but okay if you just want them in yard. 🙂 I like having dogs in bed but only if owner is comfortable with it. Never have guests. Don’t drink or smoke. Bring own food but love fizzy water and protein drinks if you’d be so kind to provide.

Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! She stayed overnight for 4 days at my home to care for my two dogs, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they weren’t alone. That meant everything to me. She was incredibly responsive, always on time, and kept me updated, which made the whole experience stress free. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back. I would 100 percent recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. She’s a great choice!

About: In addition to being a pet owner, I also worked at an animal shelter where I received specialized training on animal behavior. My friends and family have trusted me with their pets for 10+ years and I love working with dogs and cats. I’m currently working Monday-Friday until 3 or 4, but I have plenty of time in the evenings to go on walks, runs, and check in with your pets. I’m also free on weekends! I’m happy to stay close to home if that’s what your pet prefers, but I also have an SUV to take them to the beach, the dog park, or on a nice long walk. Unless we’re in a fenced in area, your pet will stay leashed while we run and play together!

I currently have four dogs of my own and have grown up caring for many different types of animals. My love for pets is what inspired me to start dog walking and pet sitting. I understand that pets are family, and I will care for your furry friend as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I am dedicated to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am responsible, trustworthy, patient, and passionate about animal care, and I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I look forward to giving your pet the attention, care, and affection they deserve I love all my animals, they are my life. Everything I do revolves around them, so I’m very sure your dog is safe with me! I have a fenced yard in plenty of furry babies. Your dog can play with. I love each animal that comes my way, and respect your animal boundaries by caring for them.

FAQs for House Sitting - Saint Lucie

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Saint Lucie on Rover is $44.94 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 515 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Saint Lucie. 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 Saint Lucie 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 Saint Lucie 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 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!

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.

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

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
