“Melissa was amazing! She came and met my Pixie before we had to go on our trip. She sent me pictures everyday and let me know how she was. Melissa was super nice and did more then needed!!”
“She took great care of our dog and our cats overnight while we were away. She communicated frequently and felt like our animals were in good hands. We will be hiring her again :-)”
“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!”
“Angela and Brian took care of Kirby while our family was on a six day vacation. They sent many photos and they were always quick to respond to any questions or new requests that we had. They were very respectful to our home.”
“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!”
About: I’ve had the opportunity to dog, cat, and house sit for several families, many of whom have trusted me to care for their pets multiple times. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to help with everything from feeding and letting pets out during the day to playing with them, giving them attention, and keeping them company in the evenings. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! I work part-time Tuesday through Thursday, typically during the day and finishing by late afternoon. I’m off Friday and Saturday, as well as most of Sunday. On Mondays, I work from 6–9 PM but am available during the day. I’m also a graduate student, which means I spend a good amount of time at home working on schoolwork. This gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with your pets throughout the day—whether that’s going for a walk, playing, feeding them, letting them out, or simply keeping them company and giving them lots of love and attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the care and attention they need while you’re away I love spending time with the pets and making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll spend quality time with them, play with them, take them on walks when appropriate, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I also understand how important your pet’s routine is. I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule and routines in your home so they can feel comfortable and secure. Whether they need playtime, a walk, some extra cuddles, or simply someone nearby, I want them to feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away
About: I am a former manager of a Doggy Daycare in the greater DC Metropolitan area, Pet and Home Care. This daycare was an outdoor yard which contained up to 40 dogs at a time, of all breeds, sizes, and different behaviors. As an involved worker, I gained extensive experience, and learned how to enforce training, administer medications, work with aggressive/difficult breeds, and handle all animal care needs with ease. Through this company, I also did overnight pet visits in the clients home, in-home walks, visits, & feedings, and special requests. I've cared for dogs, cats, exotic animals, farm animals, and more. I am a former nanny, and former cat-owner myself, and have devoted my entire life to caring for animals and people. I consider myself a fun-loving, empathetic, energetic human who is ready to take on any challenges. Thanks for giving this a read, let me know if you have any other questions for me! I am a seasonal gig worker, so when I am home, I stay home! I will not leave your pet alone for more than 4 hours at a time (at most), and pride myself on being active and fun. I love to go on walks, have plenty of space in my yard to run around (on a leash of course), and live near dog parks if you're comfortable with that. You let me know what your dog needs schedule wise, and I will work with it! I have an large non-fenced, open yard. I don't have a lot of neighbors near the property, nor other animals, and I've always walked dogs (and sometimes cats!) on a leash around my property for a short time. Across the street is a proper neighborhood with sidewalks and suburbs where I will take dogs on any walk longer than 15 minutes. I have a one bedroom house, ground level, with no other pets, roommates, or unexpected visitors. I am a big cuddler, and want the pets to feel calm and at home when they are with me.
About: i’ve taken care of all different types of animals and rescued more then i can count i love animals so much so that’s part of the reason i’m here also to pay with school i can take care of animals all day i do school from home so that’s another reason why i wanted to try this app i feel like i’d be a very good fit i have a fenced in yard and a open home i’m often in my room doing school and when im not i’m always taking care of my plants so the animals will most likely just be chilling sleeping in my room and then go outside with me in the fenced back yard
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have watched other family and friends dogs and cats. I love caring for animals of all kinds. I currently work part time as an esthetician and have off Saturday to Monday, sometimes I’ll have off additional days during the week depending on my schedule and don’t currently work long hours so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I care for pets in my clients home as if they were my own. I follow owners requests and pet’s schedules such as potty breaks, feeding times, any medications, or exercise. At my home, I have a fenced in backyard with no pool and no children.
“Melissa took excellent care of our dog Lola and her cousin Oliver on an overnight at our home! I received frequent updates and tons of photos of the dogs being loved and cared for. I was super impressed with Melissa and her son’s love for our dogs. I can’t say enough good things about Melissa!!”
About: Because we specialize exclusively in overnight House Sitting to give pets our full dedicated focus, animals naturally connect with us.

We specialize in making pets feel safe, cherished, and completely adored while you are away.😊 As a remote online business owner, my schedule is exceptionally flexible and entirely under my control.

I work directly from your home on my laptop, providing consistent companionship, flexible potty breaks, and immediate attention whenever your pet needs a walk, cuddle, or feedings. My daughter Briana is thrilled to help shower your pets with extra attention, if at anytime, I'm handling a small task with online work. Definite consistent Care!

About: I have been around dogs my entire live and the past 5 or more years I've been taking care of medium sized dogs while staying at the owners house. I have plenty of experience with walking and treating a dog and also giving baths. I would love to take care and play with your animal. I am currently a student at UNF and I don't have time to work a full-time or even a part time real job because of my class schedule. So that is why I wanted to get into dog walking or animal sitting because it is easier for me to work around my class schedule. I currently live in a apartment that is strict about animals so I won't be able to house at my place but I am more than happy to watch at your place or take them somewhere to walk.
“Natili was wonderful. She shared pics and texted me to keep me updated on Bailey. Bailey did escape the yard at one point and Natili drove around the neighborhood to find her. Her dedication to caring for Bailey was above and beyond!”
“We arrived home to very happy fur babies! It’s obvious that Danielle took excellent care of our girls. Thank you so much Danielle. We will definitely seek you out for our next trip!”
About: I have experience from my own pets throughout the years and being a vet tech for 7+ years. I have experience with cats and dogs. I can take care of them young or old. Just let me know your routines and i will try to fill the void while you are gone. I work at an animal hospital during the day so I can stop in before work, on my lunch break and after work, whichever you prefer. Im not offering home services at the moment, but if you would like me to stop in and make sure your pet has the best care. Also if medications are needed to be given, please let me know. I can do so and also make sure no love is lost when you are gone. I love animals and its one of the reasons why I got into the Vet field.

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!
This was our second booking with Reva, and all the furry ones were spoiled and happy. Reva communicated with me during both booking and always sends plenty of pictures (so I can see the shenanigans the dog and cats try to pull). I definitely recommend Reva to care for your pets
Katrina,was a wonderful pet sitter for our poorie and took wonderful care of her.pootie is on meds and she was able to get her her meds and take great care of her she went the extra mile and we would highly recommend her if you want a caring and sweet hearted person watching your pets..we will definitely use her again in the future if we have and trips away from home.she is reliable and diligent and we just loved how she kept in contact with us letting us know everything was going well.it helped us relax and enjoy our trip More knowing our fur baby was in good hands.10 out of ten service thank you Katrina for allowing us to enjoy our vacation.
Mia was absolutely wonderful with my golden retriever, Moose! 🐾 She went above and beyond while watching him, making sure he was happy, cared for, and loved just like family. I came home to a clean and tidy house, and Moose was his usual playful, tail-wagging self — a true sign he was in great hands. I can’t recommend Mia enough if you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to both your pet and your home. She exceeded my expectations in every way, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Vero Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vero Beach on Rover is $55.5 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 590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vero Beach. 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 Vero Beach 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 Vero Beach 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 Vero Beach 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 Vero Beach. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
