“Olyssia was the best dog sitter we have ever had! She was very responsive, took great care of our dogs, and left our house clean and tidy. She sent pictures of the dogs throughout her stay with them. She went above and beyond to care for, exercise and entertain them.”
“I have a large working line GSD and a blue and gold macaw. Margot was responsive and was able to help me out with short notice. I have a senior dog so there are a lot of supplements and meds to keep up with and everything was just as I left it when I returned. She did an excellent job! I can tell by my dog's behavior when I return if I have a good sitter as he definitely shows stress. It was like I went to work and came home. No anxiety or stress for my pup! Thanks Margo!”
“We were extremely happy with the care Megan provided. This was our first time using Rover with house/pet sitter and so happy we did. We came home from our 5 day trip to a very happy Brady! Megan sent us pictures and messages daily and our Brady looked like he was enjoying the extra attention. We will certainly use Megan again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Aaliyah was absolutely fabulous with my 3 month old puppy. She stayed the entire time during my house sit and sent lots of update pictures to ease my nerves of leaving him for the first time. I strongly recommend Aaliyah and will definitely be booking with her again!”
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.
“Jeff is fantastic with my dog Benji😊. I have had him take care of Benji every time I leave home to visit, vacation or whenever I need to leave for a few days or weeks! I have come to rely on him. I am very happy and pleased with his setvices!”

Experience in teaching dogs to walk on a leash that may need extra attention, administered medications, special diets, harness lifts for senior dogs with hip issues / surgery.

We work from home so it is very easy for me to keep the pets on a very similar schedule that they are on at home I am open freely to any of your needs for your babies! Contact me and we can arrange whatever works best for you and your animals! I will care for your animals the same as you do, that goes as far as food, water, potty time, and kennel time as well as anything else.
“Jayla, we are so grateful we found you to care for our dogs on our trip away. You took not only such good care of them but also of our home. When we returned the house was neat and clean and the dogs were literally glowing. We are so happy we have found you and look forward to having you house and dog sit for us again. We feel you became not only a friend to our pups but to us as well. Please reach out for anything! Thank you again so much!”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I’d want for my own.

About: My love for dogs isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifelong commitment. For the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for countless dogs for friends and neighbors, treating each one with the same love and dedication I give my own. They are truly the best and I pour out that genuine affection in every moment I spend with them. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time available to share with your pup! I am a very active person with high energy ready to go. I have a fenced yard, love to walk and have a small friendly elder dog to keep your fur baby company if they are at my house. We will follow whatever your normal routine is to make sure they feel the best they can without you.
About: Though I do not have a yard, I do understand the importance of daily activity (especially for dogs) and in regards to that, I live in close proximity to two dog parks. Growing up around different animals, I’ve grown fond, familiar, and comfortable with caring for different species (from rodents to felines and canines and pretty much anything in between). I am looking to make extra money and gain experience with different breeds of animals, as I am planning to embark on a journey into veterinary school. I love all animals and believe wholly in treating and caring for them correctly. I’ve had cats, dogs, rodents (gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs) , ferrets, birds, reptiles (leopard geckos and turtles), and rabbits just to name a few. I’m always willing to go the extra mile for an animal (whether it’s my pet or not) and I get along with practically any animal and fully believe in building a strong bond with pets.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, but currently, am a mom to 3 of them, so I know a thing or two… from >5 lbs to 100… I got you! I’ve been dog sitting for others for almost 5 years now, and actually just spent the last few months volunteering at a local Vet’s office… so I know doggy CPR now if needed! It’s officially SUMMER (yay) which means i’m free literally whenever! Call/message me and I can be there ASAP! ❤️ Monday, Tuesday, whenever, I got you! 🐾 I don’t offer services in my home, since my dogs are veeeery jealous when another is around to steal all the back scratches and belly rubs, but I can guarantee that they don’t mind when i get out of the house for a few hours 🤣 In your home, I promise to provide a nurturing environment, with the same structure and routine you’d force if you were there. Whether it’s overnight or two weeks, I’ll love on your animals like they’re my own!

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 September 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 September 2026, there are 533 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.

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.
