“This was our first time using Rover, and we hit the jackpot. Linda is amazing, and we knew right away that our boy was in good hands with her! She was so professional, kind, caring, and patient with our stressed, elderly dog. She clearly loves dogs and asked all the appropriate questions to understand his issues and schedule. She gave him his meds and followed his dietary requirements and his frequent food schedule perfectly, sent updates and photos, and was so intuitive about our pup’s needs. Having her stay with him in our home gave us such peace of mind. I would highly recommend Linda in a heartbeat!”

About: I provide loving, personal care for your pet. I love animals of all kinds, and have had them all my life. I love to play and walk dogs, and treat them as if they are my own. I have a safe, fenced large yard and only take dogs on flea and tick control , non aggressive, and up to date on their shots, for the safety of my dog and others I care for. I can take dogs up to 25 pounds. I have been dog sitting for many years and can provide excellent references if needed. I require a meet and greet, to get to know your dog and for your personal assurance that I am the sitter for your needs. I also can accomodate dogs with special needs and other pets. A nightly stay is a 24 hour period, late pickups over an hour will incur a day fee for that day. This is so i can stay on a schedule for other appointments. Hope to meet your furry family member soon!!
“We had the BEST experience with Erica as our sitter. We were so impressed with how relaxed and not stressed our two dogs - and the cat - were when we came home. We were able to enjoy being out of town for Thanksgiving knowing our babies were is great hands. We got daily updates and and photos. I highly recommend Erica!”

About: I am a professional RN. I love taking care of animals. I am looking to care for dogs or cats to care for. We have plenty of room and walking paths. Your pet will have great care and I will be able to give them the attention they need! Would love to provide care for your pet. I live in a townhouse and I am very dependable. I have had animals all my life and find it fun to spend time with them.
About: When it comes to pets, I've had a menagerie of unique ones. My experience with them has enabled me to acquire the confidence that I possess thus far. However, 13 years ago, I was given the opportunity to work for a local dog trainer who has successfully expanded her business throughout the years. During that time, I became certified in Pet First Aid as well as certified as a Pet Care Technician. I developed training and Pet Care skills all under the mentorship of the certified dog trainer while employed at her business. I have handled and worked with multiple dog breeds and their personalities. I have a calm demeanor around pets which is reassuring to them. My instinct is to look after their needs and their comfort at all times. Ultimately, the proper care and safety of the client's pet(s) helps to ensure a successful ongoing relationship. I am employed part time, however, I can accommodate pet visits, overnights and walks on Tuesdays and Fridays as well as on weekends. I am somewhat flexible on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 2:30 p.m. When taking care of pets in clients homes I tend to their needs by frequent outdoor breaks or walks. Should the pet require medications, I can administer them accordingly. I make sure they are hydrating and keep to their feeding schedules. Their play time is equally as important along with adequate rest.
“Andrea was great! I came home to happy dogs and the house was in great order. It was nice to be able to be away and not have to worry about my 2 dogs back at home. Would defintley use again!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for more than 30 years, from my own family pets to pets belonging to friends and neighbors. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need plenty of attention and playtime to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, care, and a slower pace. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow the schedule and care instructions that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether that means walks and playtime, lots of belly rubs, keeping up with a puppy’s routine, or giving an older pet some extra TLC, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine. I work part-time in a medical office, typically for 4–6 hours at a time, and also work part-time from home. This gives me plenty of availability throughout the week and the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and extra attention when needed. Because I’m not away from home for long workdays, I can be flexible with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care, companionship, and attention they’re used to while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs, and I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and preferences. Safety is always a priority, so I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could put a curious pet at risk. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show in mine. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention and affection.
About: I've always been the go-to dog sitter for my family and friends because they know how much I genuinely care for every pup I meet. Whether it's walking, feeding, playing, or just spending quality cuddle time, I treat every dog like my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs—and I'm confident handling different temperaments and needs. My calm energy, attention to detail, and love for animals help me build trust quickly with both dogs and their owners. I'm currently an FSU student home for the summer, which means I have a super flexible schedule and plenty of free time to care for your pups! Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m available and excited to spend as much time with dogs as possible. Pet care is the perfect way for me to stay active and happy during my break! I only offer pet care in my clients’ homes, which helps pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I respect your space, keep things clean and secure, and make it a priority to build trust with both you and your pet. You can count on me to provide consistent care, lots of love, and regular updates so you always know how your pup is doing.

About: What sets me apart is my high energy level, physical fitness, and hands-on experience with specific breeds like French Bulldogs. Being exceptionally active, I’m able to give high-energy dogs the long, robust walks and exercise they actually need. At the same time, my experience with Frenchies means I’m fully aware of breed-specific needs—like monitoring temperature and breathing during outdoor play in the Florida heat. Whether your dog needs a workout partner or attentive, breed-conscious care, I make sure they stay safe, healthy, and tired by the time you get home. My schedule is almost completely wide open all week, so I'm available for last-minute drop-ins, flexible walk times, overnight stays, or full-day care. Evenings I usually drive Uber Eats for 2-3 hours. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, care, and security. Safety is my top priority: I double-check that all doors, windows, and gates are locked every time I enter or leave, and I follow all key and alarm protocols precisely. Inside, I keep spaces clean and hazard-free—ensuring food, trash, and small items are kept well out of reach. I also send regular photos and updates so you have complete peace of mind knowing your pets and home are safe, secure, and in great hands.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog and others dogs for 13+ years. I’ve had dogs my entire life and I am such a huge dog person! I will bathe, feed, or walk or all if needed! I have a 10 year old French bulldog at home and before him, I had a Cockapoo who we had just before him until he was 15 years old. I’m currently a student, so I have plenty of time between classes and during the day to walk and play with your dogs/cats. Most week days I’m available & weekends are even better. I have a French bulldog at home and if your dogs friendly, we can socialize them, but I have a gate if we need it!
About: I have had a pet of some type my entire life, and I love to take care of animals. I work from home and have 2 willing teenagers at home who would love another pet but will settle on helping care for yours. I'm current home all day and will take your dog for walks and play. I have a ton of flexibility to walk dogs, take care of pets and play. Someone in our family is always home. We have a family dog at home that gets along well with others. Your pet will be treated the same as ours with fun play time, walks, exercise and a ton of attention.

“Michelle is the absolute best! She stayed at our house to watch our older dog and cat while we were away for 8 days. She sent pictures, checked in with updates, and even helped us navigate an unexpected AC issue. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and a great communicator. My pets loved her! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing sitting services.”

About: I have 11 years of experience caring for dogs and have grown up with three dogs of my own. I have helped during two dog births and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. I can bathe dogs, clean their eyes, trim the hair around their eyes when needed, and make sure they are clean and comfortable. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I always treat every dog like they are part of my own family. (Mandy Experience with small dogs) I have plenty of availability during the week, especially in the mornings and early afternoons. This allows me to give your dog my full attention, whether it’s for walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a small fenced yard where dogs can safely spend time outside. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm, loving environment. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and will treat your dog as if they were one of my own. I pay close attention to every dog’s individual needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I have 15 years of experience, both personally with a sweet cat of my own and taking care of pets for friends and family who have relied on me to walk, feed, and check in on them as needed. I love animals and enjoy helping others. I currently work a full time job Monday through Friday near Palm Beach Gardens, FL.

This is my side hustle, so if I sound like a fit for you please feel free to reach out! Your pet is family and I understand what it's like to be away from them. I am responsible and patient, and when checking on them in your home I will treat them with the loving care and attention they need.

Anita was fantastic … she was the best dog sitter we ever had and we have had sooo many! She stayed with our Roxy for a week and provided tons of updates, love and care for our girl. She went out of her way to make sure we were never wondering how she was doing which with a senior dog made our trip stress free! She was clean and took care of our home, took mail in and took trash out and even watered my plants. I can’t recommend her enough.

I hit the jackpot with Linda! She was the perfect pet sitter. She was attentive to Toby...following his play, walk and sleep schedule. I felt completely comfortable with his safety in her care. She asked a question if she wasn't sure about something, which I appreciated. There were lots of pictures and videos and updates. I enjoyed my time away knowing Linda was in charge of Toby.

Emily was absolutely amazing with our pups! She took such wonderful care of them and loved them as if they were her own. She spent quality time with them—relaxing by the pool, cuddling on the couch, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved while we were away. She stayed on top of their entire routine, from meals and walks to bedtime, and gave us complete peace of mind. She also took great care of our home and was incredibly kind, respectful, and reliable throughout her stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and will definitely be using Emily again and again to care for our fur babies. We highly recommend her!

Natalie was an excellent sitter. We received several updates and pictures of the pets... something that is severely lacking from sitters in this area. She was also very early, which worked out great for us! Our home was also left neat and clean, huge huge plus for us. Also, we didn't come home to anxious dogs for once! Natalie was just top notch!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tequesta on Rover is $61.05 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 1,616 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tequesta. 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 Tequesta 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 Tequesta 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 Tequesta 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 Tequesta. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
