“This was our first time using the overnight function with rover so we were a little nervous but Amelia proved to be a wonderful choice. She sent pictures, videos and updates throughout our trip and took such good care of our senior pup & our home while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

“We have 3 dogs that we have never left alone with a stranger before. One dog being a very energetic Great Dane puppy who can be difficult to handle just based on his size and strength. Abby came for a meet and great and was immediately able to manage him. She came for one more visit before we left for a week and equally impressed us. This gave my husband who was very stressed about leaving them a great peace of mind while we were away. Abby provided us with daily updates and videos. When we arrived home the dogs and our bird were obviously very well looked after. We were concerned she would not last the week with our motley crew. Not only did she last the week, she agreed to come back again. She will absolutely be our go to pet sitter as long as we can have her. Thank you Abby!!!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years and have cared for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, fish, and lizards. I am very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I am also experienced in giving medications and following specific care instructions when needed. My mom is a veterinarian, so I have grown up around animals and learned a lot about proper pet care and paying attention to changes in an animal’s behavior or health. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet I care for like they are my own! I am currently a college student at UNCW, and I have a 3+ hour break between every class, so I have plenty of free time to take pets out for a potty break throughout the day. I am also completely free most weekends, so I have lots of time to spend with pets! I usually care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a place they already know and feel comfortable in. I always make sure to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I’ll also make sure the house is clean, secure, and just the way the owner left it. Most importantly, I want both the pets and their owners to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands.

About: After more than 30 years of caring for dogs and cats as part of my family, I now focus on providing dependable, loving care for pets while their owners are away. Because I'm self-employed, I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust my availability to provide dependable care when you need it whether it's check-ins, walks or extended care. Hi I'm Catarina! I'm a life long pet lover and even though I don't have any pets of my own right now, I love caring for other people's pets in the comfort of their own home. I've spent many years sharing my life with both dogs and cats, so I understand their routines, personalities and little quirks. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and well cared for by sticking to their normal schedule, giving them plenty of attention and making sure they feel safe while their owners are away.

She was incredibly accommodating, communicated clearly, and responded quickly to any questions. She also sent lots of photos of our happy, comfortable pup, which was so reassuring.

Jane is fabulous! I always feel like I’ve left my pups in great hands when she’s there. She communicates often and she is very reliable. She took wonderful care of our senior pup who had several medications. Our younger guy gets plenty of walks attention and snuggles.

Nolan was AWESOME! We did a meet and greet prior to sitting and he was detail focused on their needs. Also asked for more time to play and familiarize the dogs with him. While we were away he sent regular updates and photos/videos. When we returned our dogs seemed like their normal selves, having attention, play time, and relaxation. It was just the experience we were looking for. Highly recommend Nolan for all dog breeds and behaviors.

We were happy to invite Denise back into our home to care for French Toast. French welcomed Denise with tail wags and kisses. Denise took French on some daily ‘adventures’ which he loved. Denise has excellent communication with us and sent photos and descriptions of French’s day. We really appreciate the level of care given to French by Denise. We highly recommend her services.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sea Breeze

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Sea Breeze is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $56 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 October 2026, there are 756 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sea Breeze. 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 Sea Breeze 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 Sea Breeze 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 Sea Breeze 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 Sea Breeze. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
