“Julia did an amazing job caring for not only our pup but also our two rats! She kept us feeling comfortable throughout our trip by providing consistent updates and plenty of photos. She treated our home with great respect and truly went above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy.”
“Destiny was amazing with our dogs! We have 3 dogs which can be a handful at times but she took great care of them. Put my mind at ease day 1 of our trip. Highly recommend and will be booking again in future!”
About: I have had dogs since I was 4. Most of them have been Cockers or Boxers. My dog sleeps with me. She is totally spoiled. She loves to sit on my lap. We take 2 long walks everyday. Each of them are 45 minutes. Your dog will get the same loving care. I live at the end of a dead end street in quiet Micco. It is safe even though my yard is not fenced. I have outside stakes for dogs who enjoy being in the grass and there is a vacant field directly across for super lazy walkers who would rather not walk up the street to the park. Your time away can be worry_free. I can text and also send you photos Your dog will get good care and your instructions will be followed to a T ( t-bone)!!
“Yaretzi was amazing and shared photos of Zarra during her care and also kept me updated on how she was doing. Yaretzi was very understanding and acknowledged our concerns of leaving our fur baby for the first time. We will definitely contact her again when we are back in town.”
About: I have over 30 years of personal experience owning dogs, having almost 4 at once on my family's country farm growing up. Since I was a toddler I've had an easy connection with dogs that allows me to make fury friends easly. I've seen the good and bad of what it takes to look after them, from a new puppy to a sunset dog. I work a full time but I'm open to mornings from 7-9:30am and any hour after 7:30 pm after working. I'm otherwise free otherwise all day on Monday and Thursday I pay extra attention to wants and needs while ensuring food and water are always available. I keep pets in the designated area unless otherwise allowed. I would prefer to sit at your house on camera if possible as I do have 2 dogs at home that are friendly but want to make sure there is ample room for everyone.
“Megan was great with our dogs. She sent photos and updates on our short overnight trip. She is focused on their care and wellbeing. Would love to have her anytime we petcare.”
About: I have loved dogs since before I can remember! My parents rescued many dogs while I was a kid and I am comfortable with all energies and sizes. In Colorado, I spent a lot of time staying in clients homes with their dogs while they went on vacation. I would keep the same routine their dog knew and loved! I am flexible and willing to do whatever is needed to keep you and your pet happy and without worry! I am living at my dad’s helping with him and his dog at home. My schedule is very open and I could use some more time with dogs! Before moving here I was constantly dog sitting or walking. I try to get as much information about what the pet enjoys or is triggered by. Also knowing routines and things that need to be done. I am willing to do whatever is asked of me.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I am a genuine animal lover and have gotten along with every pet I’ve come across with enough time. Every pet is different with a variety of needs, I’m here to understand that and give them the best care possible! I’m currently starting out on Rover so I do not currently have a routine. I am very open and fluid with scheduling so please reach out! I love spending time with animals so getting your pet to be comfortable with me is a big priority. Aside from caring for the specific needs for your pet, I would love to spend time playing or just chilling and petting your pet!
About: My love for animals began at age 10, when my family rescued two kittens from Morocco during a vacation. That early experience grew into a lifelong devotion to caring for all kinds of creatures. I later spent 20 years on a small farm in Loxahatchee tending to cats, dogs, chickens, turkeys, exotic birds, and many abandoned animals who found their way to my door. With decades of hands‑on experience, from feral cats to bottle‑fed newborns, from energetic pups to sensitive birds, I bring calm, patient, loving care to every animal I meet. Each pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to understand what helps them feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. With a part‑time work schedule, I’m able to offer calm, unhurried, and attentive loving care to your favorite companion, no matter their species or personality. In your home, I create a peaceful, familiar experience for your pet. I follow your routines with care, offer calm companionship, and pay close attention to their emotional and physical needs. Whether it’s feeding, play, cuddles, or quiet presence, I make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and gently cared for.
“Jayla took such great care of our Finley! We received texts and pictures of him while she was watching him and we appreciated that so much! Highly recommend her and will be hiring her again soon!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since 2016, I have gained professional experience through animal shelters, veterinary hospitals, and caring for pets for veterinary clients. I hold a degree in Animal Science from the University of Florida and have experience with pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs, including administering medications and injections. Whether I'm stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or staying in your home, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pride myself on excellent communication, following pet parent instructions carefully, and providing reliable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have owned animals my entire life, so animal care is naturally built into my routine. In addition to my personal experience, I have worked in veterinary medicine and animal welfare settings, giving me extensive hands-on experience with pets of all ages and needs. I work full-time Monday through Wednesday, but I can often adjust my schedule to accommodate pet visits depending on location. The remainder of my week offers greater flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and household instructions carefully while providing plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection based on each pet's personality and preferences. I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, senior pets, puppies and kittens, and those with behavioral challenges. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and videos when requested. I also treat my clients' homes with the same respect I would my own. Before the end of a house-sitting stay, I typically wash any bedding and towels I used, clean up after myself, and leave the home tidy so clients can return to both happy pets and a well-cared-for home.
“Daisy seemed to have great care with Derek. He was reliable and came a day early for a meet and greet. He seemed to follow the instructions I left. He was very pleasant and was willing to do what was asked. He also kept us informed and sent lots of pictures. The house was left in great condition. I wouldn't hesitate to have Derek again.”
“Margo was fantastic at taking care of my two senior dogs, 7 lb morkie and 7 lb chihuahua. She arrived on time, found my garage door was open, closed it, sent me photos and walked them, fed them and spent quality time with them. Very responsible and a joy to have. Note, my morkie is feisty on walks and barks at everyone. We did a test walk and she handled him beautifully. Thank you Margo!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sebastian
Logan was a great pet/house sitter for us. He bonded immediately with our girl, which turned out to be extremely important as they weathered some pretty noisy thunderstorms together! Logan provided daily updates on their walks and left the house neat and clean. We will use him again.
Daisy seemed to have great care with Derek. He was reliable and came a day early for a meet and greet. He seemed to follow the instructions I left. He was very pleasant and was willing to do what was asked. He also kept us informed and sent lots of pictures. The house was left in great condition. I wouldn't hesitate to have Derek again.
Bree is amazing! She went above and beyond! Akela was well taken care of and I was updated consistently with messages and photos throughout my trip. It was greatly appreciated and made for a wonderful experience. I look forward to future bookings and highly recommend her services.
We had some miscommunication re the starting date and time, but worked it out to our mutual satisfaction. When I showed her the daily routine, she paid attention and actually took notes. That gave me confidence in her bc that’s what I would do. She took wonderful care of my cat. I would not hesitate to recommend Jeanice.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sebastian on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 652 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sebastian. 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 Sebastian 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 Sebastian 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 Sebastian 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 Sebastian. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
