“After needing a last minute booking, for a long house sit, Jennifer came through and helped ease our worries. She truly was our angel sent from above! We received video and picture messages while away, and we felt that she truly went the extra mile around the home and taking care of Pie. All the things I look for in a sitter, Jennifer was. Caring, loving, clean, respectful and responsive. Thank you Jennifer and we look forward to having you back!”
“Ben provide great care for our dog and house during our time away. He provided us with multiple photos and updates daily, which gave us piece of mind. We recommend Ben and will hire again. Thanks”
“Nikki watched our lab, Juno, for two weeks while we were gone for the holidays. She sent us photos throughout our time away, picked up our mail, and even gave Juno a few Christmas gifts. We came home to a very relaxed and well taken care of pup! We would definitely trust Nikki with Juno again!”
“Kyli was fantastic! Very communicative and professional. She was great with our overly friendly golden retriever and two cats that can often times be reclusive. Cats warmed right up to her and we got many photo updates. Highly recommend!”
“Kimberly did a great job of taking care of my dog! When I came home, he was worn out, but seemed very happy and my home looked just the way it did when I left it. Kimberly kept up great communication during my trip and sent great pictures. I felt very comfortable with Kimberly looking after my pup.”
“Robert was ABSOLUTELY fabulous! He was patient, thoughtful, and really communicative. From the moment we requested a sitter until after the service was complete, he was swift to respond, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated on all the pet care rituals. He did not flinch when the breaker needed to be reset during a housesit, and he took such wonderful care of our tankgirl, Bailey. 5 stars, 2 thumbs way up, and a 3 snaps in Z formation! Highly recommend.”
“Kira was an amazing dog sitter! One of our dogs has separation anxiety, and Kira did a great job keeping her calm and cared for. They also asked a lot of great questions to make sure they had all of the information they needed about our dogs while we were gone. They sent us pictures of the dogs and gave status updates while we were gone which was really appreciated! They were very flexible with time too, I was able to book them with just a few days notice, and had to stay out later than expected which was no problem for them. Overall it was a great experience, our pups seemed very happy. Thanks Kira! <3”
“Lauren was great with all of our pets and was super responsive and flexible. She also took on other responsibilities outside of pet sitting. We will definitely have her care for our pets in the future.”
“Thank you Barb for your care of my doggo. I appreciate you keeping me updated on how he was doing while I was gone and always checking in if something came up that you thought I should know. I know he was well- cared for which allowed me to have a worry free vacation!”
“Elisa is the best sitter we’ve ever used! I know when Elisa stays with Pancho she will not only care for him like he is her own, but she will take him on fun walks and outings. I can feel at ease knowing that Pancho and my home are under wonderful care while I’m away. Sometimes I wonder if Pancho is disappointed when I get home because he loves Elisa so much! Thank you for being amazing!!”
“We have three pups and our oldest has a medical protocol, so finding a way to attend a family event cross country was pretty stressful. Then we found Timea. Our pups excelled with her, her care and communications were wonderful. The pups often get anxious when we are gone and they all did wonderful and were so calm when we returned. She customized care for each pup, walking the big one, cuddling the needy one and top notch medical care for the oldest. I highly recommend Timea for excellent pup care.”
“Russell was great with our older dog and cat. He kept us updated and took our dog on great walks. He also took good care of our home. Even watered plants without being asked. He can be relied upon ti take great care of pets and home”
“Jessica was exceptional! Even with it being a last minute booking, Jessica did all the things a professional would do. She set up a meet and greet, made the right questions and made quickly managed my puppy’s energy. Jessica was super prompt, respectful of our home and kind with our baby. I couldn’t be happier and I can’t wait to book her again! THANK YOU JESSICA!!”
About: I have always given my best to provide an experience that is hassle free, stress free and as worry free as possible, for both the pets; & the pet parents. I have worked with most breeds/sizes of cats/dogs, as well as a few different reptiles like corn snakes & bearded dragons, “not to mention” a couple birds from time to time such as parrots & parakeets; & I am very open minded about continuing to do so for any animal in need! Pet owners deserve someone dependable and willing to do their best each and every time their pet is cared for and that’s what I strive to bring to the table every single time. Locations and activities are subject to change depending on the animal and the requests made by each individual owner. I like to walk each dog through their own neighborhoods, when first getting to know them, to be sure there’s always a sense of comfort for them. Once we get to know each other and they trust me, I like to take them to local parks or local trails. If there are other dogs nearby, causing any distress or shortening the distance we cover, I will reroute and change plans if needed. One way or another, I will be sure to get their exercise and stimulation taken care of, so they are ready for a nap when they get home!
“Veronika was great with Baxter. He was happy to see us but we could tell he was well loved and cared for by her. She sent pics and expressed a small concern (which we appreciated ) but turned out just fine. When we returned, it was like he was looking for her to walk in with us. We will definitely book her again.”
About: I know how important it is to feel confident that your beloved pets are happy and safe when you are traveling. Thats why I am really more of a dog nanny than a dogsitter. I have a soft spot for dogs who are shy or anxious, and whose trust I need to earn. I am particularly experienced with northern breeds such as Huskies and Malamutes. Regular clients get great benefits on top of in-house pet sitting. My base rate includes 1 hour or more of exercise (off leash park or leashed hike). I offer nail trims/dremels and light grooming at no additional cost. I offer deshedding/bathing for a modest fee, and I'm flexible about last minute schedule changes. For housesitting gigs, my dog Kaya is my +1. She provides stellar socialization and exercise for dogs who will accept canine visitors. I respect that some of owners feel reluctant to invite in dogs they don't know. If you would like your dog to have socialization with visitors but you're concerned, I have a lot of training experience with this and I may be of some help. Every day we have at least 1 hour of exercise in an off leash park or a leashed hike. My guests also get to join me on socialization expeditions such as visiting dog-friendly businesses. I can provide basic first aid in case of minor injuries, and I have an excellent track record for keeping dogs safe and out of mischief. In addition to Rover's insurance, I also have a private pet sitting insurance policy.
About: WELCOME TO THE PACK! my Husband an I have been doing dog boarding and sitting together for about 2 years an I have been doing it individually for about 5. We have two lab mixes, a staffy, an a jackrussel mix in our home with us whom we love deeply. We are used to working with different personalities around an love incorporating new pups into our lives getting to know them an keeping them comfortable. I live on a large forested property in Redmond that's fenced in, we love to get to know new personalities an our pups will never pass on a new play mate. I work 4 days a week at a grooming salon my husband is home 24/7 with boards. We like to spend time outside but if the weather is bad it's cuddle central inside. We do about 4 or 5 potty breaks a day an one or two good play sessions outside before settling into the evening. Outside time is monitored the whole time to ensure everyone is safe and happy while playing in our beautiful yard. I am comfortable an very good giving oral meds an insulin shots to our dearly beloved friends. We are a medical issue an disability friendly household that can take care your best friends needs with the upmost care. We will trim over grown nails or give baths if its necessary or needed. We also have experience with Giant breeds an petite alike so please bring your "horses" an lil "bed bugs" to play or cuddle we don't discriminate. I have a special soft spot of senor dogs an their powdered sugar faces an will do everything to support our senior citizens in their twilight years. I have plenty of enrichment toys, treats, an orthopedic beds to meet your old pals needs. I do not provide care to cats, not because I don't want to I'm sadly allergic. I also do not provide care to unspayed or neutered pets unless they are under a year old, please be understanding of this. Did you miss your flight or did it get delayed/canceled? Your road trip is taking longer then expected? No worries I'm happy to work with you as long as I'm updated! -FOR MEET AN GREETS/PICKUP & DROP OFFS - follow the gravel driveway all the way behind the house there is parking and turn around space pleanty enough for a truck, my front door is IN the garage to the left I live in the sub basement while my grandpa is upstairs. I LOVE ANIMALS putting in the time an dedication to an animals care, needs an happiness throughout their stay. I like to give updates an send photos. My favorite is seeing how excited a dog gets during pick up after a stay it's so heartwarming an just flat out adorable. I would love if you made a lil resume/cover letter for your pet on their needs, typical schedule, habits, an anything I would need to keep an eye on. I expect all dogs that come into my care to be dog friendly for the safty of all pets involved with reliable recall. I like to accommodate pets to the best of my ability I get immense joy from being able to take care of animals of all kinds. I would love if in your animals care package they have at least 1 toy, harness is preferable, something that smells like you an your home like their bed or a blanket (animals are smell based so it a comfort), their food bowl, dog food enough for the stay. An a little letter at least to tell me feeding an walking schedules.

Alina was the perfect fit for our family. The two dogs immediately felt safe and comfortable with her. Her spirt is kind and the like all dogs they knew she was loves animals. She took them for their regular walks and took them on an adventure to the park. The biggest testimony to her pets sitting is that the dogs were calm, happy, and napping after she left. She has the vibe!
We couldn't be happier with our experience! Our elderly dog has some vision and hearing challenges, so finding someone we truly trust with him isn't easy — but she was absolutely wonderful with him. She took exceptional care of him, was easy to communicate with, and we felt completely at ease having her stay in our home. We'd highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with senior or special-needs pets. We'll definitely be booking again!
We highly recommend Sonoma. She is a great commutator. She sent artistic pictures of our dog multiple times a day, which was a delight. Our dog was so calm and happy when we returned. I felt comfortable and confident that our dog was in the best of company while we were away.

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 Stuart 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 Stuart 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Stuart 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.
