“Linda was GREAT. Very responsive and responsible. She took care of our pups like they were her own and brought me peace knowing that I could leave my pups in their home and they would be well cared for. She provided updates and pictures and asked the best questions! Highly recommend her to anyone who prefers to have their kiddos taken care of on their own turf!”
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!!
“Sally was absolutely amazing with our dog! She was loving, kind and fun! We knew Mack was in good hands with her. He was always safe, well feed & got plenty of walks. She left the house immaculate and has our complete trust.”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with our 10-year-old golden retriever, Anna. From the moment she arrived, she was punctual, professional, warm, and genuinely caring. She didn’t just “watch” our dog—she went out of her way to make sure Anna was happy, comfortable, and loved. What truly stood out to me was that instead of me thanking her for her time, she was thanking me for the opportunity to spend time with our golden. That level of sincerity and passion for animals is rare and priceless. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Anna was in such capable and loving hands. I will 100% be using Emily’s services anytime we need a sitter, and I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for the very best care for their pets. Truly, there aren’t enough stars to reflect how happy we are with her services! Lorne Stitsky Jupiter”
“Can’t recommend Amanda enough! She is professional, communicative and ensures we don’t have to worry about anything for our dog while we’re away. She always goes above and beyond, accommodating early/late check-ins. We’re so glad we found her to care for Denver!”
“Jack was fantastic with our two bernedoodles! He was communicative, kept the house clean and overall was very very easy going. The boys were wiped from all the play time with Jack. So much so, that when we got home from a weekend trip and my husband and I looked at each other and decided we needed to learn Jack’s strategy for keeping them so calm and relaxed. We will definitely be calling again, highly recommend!!”

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.
“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 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.
“Dianna was awesome! She handled my 100 lb dog and bratty kitty beautifully during my week away. She communicated daily with updates and pics, and reached out with questions when needed. I came home to relaxed happy pets and a spotless home. Thank you Dianna!”
About: Hi my name is Amy! I love all animals big and small and have taken care of and trained animals most of my life. I have trained horses in all disciplines, worked ranch/service/and home dogs, and trained generally about any animal I have been able to interact with. I have some exotics experience and quite a well rounded veterinary back ground with some formal training. I am home full time & absolutely love that I get to care for animals! I am lucky to have an amazingly flexible schedule & work from home. I am available short notice too! A call is always great too get a good update! I can do daily to 24 hour care. I care for 2 dogs max at a time. Kennels are great dens. Big Couches are great for sleep overs too! I like child fences at all door ways just in case someone tries to move quicker than us! I like everyone with their own air tag when the owners are away. I make sure there are multiple daily walks and play time keep everyone happy. 😊
“Patrick was fantastic with our three dogs! He was incredibly communicative and understanding throughout the entire stay. We really appreciated the frequent photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“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’ve grown up around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a slower, more patient approach, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever each pet needs. I currently help care for and walk my family dog, so I’m familiar with daily routines like feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m confident handling all sizes and temperaments, whether a dog is playful and energetic or more calm and reserved. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive and consistent. I make sure to follow instructions closely, keep routines steady, and always prioritize a pet’s comfort and safety. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel cared for, understood, and at ease while their owner is away. I currently work as a hostess with a steady schedule, so I plan pet care around my shifts. I’m generally available in the mornings, early afternoons, and later evenings, and I’m flexible on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet care visits. I already care for and walk my family dog daily, so pet care is a natural part of my routine. I’m organized and focused on providing consistent, reliable care for each pet. I follow all owner instructions closely to keep pets’ routines consistent and stress-free. I make sure feeding, walks, and any special care are done exactly as requested. I respect the home, keep things clean, and focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels, and I always provide updates so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Amazing caregiver. Great communication. Kept us updated on how our Millie was doing. Kind. Patient. Very attentive to our pup. Grateful for the night out she let us have. We will be rebooking and fully recommend Andrea.”
“I highly recommend Kathy for your pet sitting needs! She recently watched my dog Queenie, who has some anxiety from fleeing the dog catcher when she was four weeks old. Kathy did a great job trying to assure Queenie that not every stranger is a dog catcher! Kathy provided a safe, comfortable environment for my dog despite Queenies challenges. I would definitely book Kathy again!”
“Guilanna was great! She arrived as agreed and took the dogs out regularly. She spent the evening with them and I know they enjoyed the company! She had come prior to the date to meet me and the dogs, and get the lay of the land with schedules and where the dog supplies were. She was friendly and left notes for me on how/what each dog did.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tequesta
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!
Maddison took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was comfortable and well looked after. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We would absolutely 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 July 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 July 2026, there are 1,618 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
- 97% 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.
