“I have booked Bunny about 4 times now and every time she does a wonderful job! My pup loves her and I am really appreciative of the good care Bunny gives her. Will continue to book.”
About: I have had 4 large dogs of my own, and cared for countless neighborhood and friends' dogs in my adult life. I am comfortable and have experience with administering meds, monitoring health, following through on training, and simply loving up dogs as I am known as the "dog whisperer" amongst those who know me! I work from home and I am an empty nester with my own giant breed senior dog who doesn't love walking much anymore so I would love to get out and about with other dogs who could use some attention during the work day! I have a screened in lanai and I have gates/doors within my all tile home in order to keep dogs separated when necessary. All dogs are leashed when outside of my home or lanai.
“My dogs were truly in excellent care. I feel like they were on a mini vacation of their own. Every check in we got several pictures. If you are looking for exceptional care for your pets Jeffrey is the person for your fur kids.”
“Maria is the best! This is the 3rd time I have used her. My dog Echo is so comfortable around her and is happy to see her. I don’t worry about leaving Echo when Maria is taking care of her.”
“What a wonderful experience! Melissa is very attentive and keeps in great communication. She goes above and beyond for sure. My girl Zoey is very skiddish around new people, but took right to Melissa letting her pet her backside, which normally Zoey freaks out about around new people. I highly recommend Melissa and will be having her give love to our pup again.”
“Im so grateful to have hired Cristin to look after my cat, while I was away. She loved and cared for my cat, sent pics and kept me updated on her care. There was a brush fire in the area and Cristin let me know that everything was good, when you are thousands of miles away worried...Cristin kept me calm..I absolutely will book her again for my next travels. Thank you so much! ...and thanks to Rover, no stress!”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old and am now 19, giving me several years of hands-on experience. I have provided trusted care for dogs of neighbors and close friends, always focusing on safety, comfort, and individual needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure owners feel at ease by giving regular updates, photos, and clear communication. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so both pets and owners feel happy and stress-free. I am regularly available and have a very flexible schedule. As an online college student, I am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I also have my own reliable transportation, allowing me to easily travel for drop-ins, walks, or sitting. My flexible availability helps ensure pets receive consistent care and attention throughout the day. I provide attentive, respectful care in your pet’s own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow your routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you are away, while also keeping your home clean and secure. Regular updates and photos are always provided so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Kyle was very helpful and attentive to my cats. I appreciate his drop ins the last two days. The most important thing is that they both felt very comfortable with him. Thanks Kyle!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm, I cared for everything from small livestock to beloved family pets, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and personalities. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, pot-bellied pigs, sheep, goats, horses, donkeys, cows, reptiles, and amphibians. Most recently, I've provided care for senior dogs and understand the extra patience, compassion, and attention they need as they age. My diverse background allows me to confidently care for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and life stages. Pet care fits well into my current routine. I'm currently attending school to become an airline pilot, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. For house sitting and overnight stays, some advance coordination may be needed since I'm a single dad. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and accommodating whenever possible. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I treat your animals, property, and routines with the utmost respect. I take the time to learn each pet's unique needs, maintain consistent routines, and provide attentive care to help them feel secure and happy. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their furry family members are being cared for with kindness, dignity, and genuine affection.
About: I’m an avid humanitarian and animal lover with extensive experience with dogs. I currently have more time on my hands to help others in need! Currently I’m working part time in Jupiter. I have Monday through Thursday off and work Friday through Sunday. Every morning dedicated to long dog walks! I have a gated yard and one sweet (and lonely) dog. He is wonderful with all dogs, all sizes and would welcome your pup happily!
“Nicole was incredibly flexible and helpful, bending to my hectic schedule. She was on time and my cat boys absolutely loved her. They were in the best of care and I highly recommend Nicole!”
About: Hi there! My names Allison. Im currently living in Vero and Melbourne. I take house sitting jobs in the Vero beach and Melbourne area. I have been taking care of all different types of animals all my life. From taking care of baby kittens to taking care of a new born puppy. Birds and reptiles as well. I love all animals and treat all animals the same. I am currently living in Vero Beach part time sitting for clients from as north as Melbourne FL, and I’m now taking care of my father and currently helping care for my moms seven animals. I am now looking to help others take care of their fur babies when needed. I’m free all the time and would love to take care of more animals. I take care of my pets daily from the minute. I wake up so the minute I go to bed. Both of my cats at home follow me everywhere and love their cat room that I made for them. I play with them daily and even make cute little projects for them. My most recent one was a little box for my one cat that wouldn’t let me get rid of a delivery box. I have had to give medication to animals as well. I’m very good at it and know how to administer medication‘s properly. I’ve also taken care of animals that have walking issues that are having issues with going outside. Many years of different types of animal care.
About: Animals have truly been my passion for as long as I can remember! Growing up with dogs gave me a deep understanding of pet care early on. I have experience with larger breeds, including caring for my family's German Shepherd and I’m a proud rescue pit bull mom today! Whether your dog is high energy, sensitive, big, or small, I provide a patient, attentive, and loving environment tailored to their exact routine and needs! I work from home running my coaching business, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to prioritize your pet's routine, potty breaks, walks, and quality attention! Since I have a dog of my own, I exclusively care for pets in the client’s home, where your dog is most comfortable! I prioritize safety, keep your space secure, and follow your exact routine
“Amanda took such amazing care of my English bulldog while I was gone! I’m so happy to finally have found someone I can trust to come into my house and look after my baby! Amanda was prompt, quick to respond, and sent lots of pictures showing me everything was going well! Will definitely be using Amanda for future out of town trips!! :)”
“Yaretzi or Nina was very punctually and I didn't have a worry with my fur babies while she was watching them. The only thing I would suggest is that she be more attentive to my dogs in the 30 minute window of the drop in service”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I can remember. Old, young, high and low maintenance, long hair and short haired, really anything you can think of. I am medically trained, and I’ve taken care of several dogs after they receive medical care. I can administer medication and injections if needed. I am especially great with senior dogs that need a bit of special attention and patience. I’m have a very flexible schedule, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I can check in any time of day, and I’m free most days of the week. I can feed, bathe, play with, take on walks, administer medications, etc in the clients home. I can also bring pets to their vet appointments if needed.
About: I have had anywhere from 2-4 animals in my house for the entirety of my life, including both dogs and cats. Over the years, I have contributed to the simple tasks of feeding them, letting them outside, taking them on walks, taking them to the vet, and cuddling with them. However, I have also had experience caring for 2 elderly dogs and 2 dogs that struggle with seizures. This required more patience and gentleness, learning how to medicate, and sometimes even emergency vet trips. I am currently enrolled at the University of Central Florida, but I am taking mostly online classes. Most weeks, I am able to be home in Sebastian from Wednesday evenings to Sunday nights. During that time, I should be able to drop in once or twice a day and care for your pets. I do not take pets to my home, but I will happily "drop in" to your house, feed your animals, let them outside (dogs), medicate them, and give them pets/cuddles if necessary.

Melissa was totally wonderful with my puppy! She arrived on time for the meet and greet as well as the booking, was really nice, and kept me up to date with photos and communication letting me know how my shy pup was doing. I felt totally at ease the whole time and will absolutely be using her services again. Thank you!
Macie provided six days of drop-in visits for my two cats this week. What a super sitter! She was very punctual, and when her schedule needed to vary at all, she let me know ahead of time. She had every characteristic you want to see and experience in an ideal sitter. She was reliable, conscientious, thorough, and highly communicative. She sent Rover report cards immediately following each visit and asked good questions when needed. She made sure to follow all instructions about food, water, and litter box care and did a great job relaying important details about each of these areas. I looked forward to her detailed reports three times a day, and she shared fantastic photos each time. I felt assured my cats were in great hands. Macie is an outstanding sitter, and it is easy to give her a high recommendation.
Reliable. Serious (in the 'excellent listener' and strives to understand the pet's needs sort of way). Extremely clear communicator. Trustworthy. Judy was, in a word, a fantastic and reliable dog sitter for our Frenchie Marcel. Highly recommend Judy Knight's services!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Vero Beach is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 978 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Vero Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 96% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
