“Cheyenne takes excellent care of our pets when we are away. She goes above and beyond caring for them. I love the pictures she takes. Elsee, Bach and our cat Smokey really like her. I fully trust her with them and our home. I recommend her 100%”
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.
“Eli was great with my dog!! It was very noticeable she was well taken care of during the visit and was happy when I got home. I loved that I received pictures and updates, too. I will definitely book Eli for future drop-in visits!”
“Simply put, Christie is AWESOME! I had to change my schedule and check-in times a couple of times, and she was so sweet, understanding, and accommodating every single time! My little guy did great in her care, which gave me such peace of mind. Christie is genuinely one of the sweetest people you’ll meet! Stop looking—you’ve found the perfect person to care for your furry baby! I can’t recommend Christie enough! ❤️🐾”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. At four, I caught a garter snake and kept him for a week before my parents made me let him go. As a kid, I was always catching frogs and lizards and looking for any chance to spend time with animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for rabbits, gerbils, frogs, turtles, tortoises, dogs, and birds. I also maintained a tropical fish tank for 13 years. I currently have two cats, turkeys, chickens, and ducks. Animals mean the world to me. I’m extremely patient and take the time to learn each pet’s personality, earn their trust, and help them feel comfortable and loved. Whether furry, feathered, or scaly, your pet will have my full attention and care tailored to their needs. I am available full-time for pet care. My flexible schedule allows me to work around your pet’s usual habits and give them plenty of time, attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I follow your care instructions closely, whether you leave a detailed checklist or a few simple guidelines. I keep feeding schedules, walks, and other routines consistent with what your pet is used to and ask questions whenever something needs clarification. In your home, I respect your privacy, belongings, and house rules, leave the spaces I use tidy, and make sure everything is secure before leaving. I’m happy to provide photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Jessica did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Sky. We needed someone to stop by and let our 100‑pound German Shepherd out while I was at the hospital for my husband’s surgery, and she was exactly who we needed. I was a little nervous since this was Sky’s first time with a sitter, but Jessica put her at ease right away. She’s clearly very comfortable with large dogs and even played ball with her in the yard. She also went above and beyond by letting us know about sparking she noticed from our trees near the power lines—something we really appreciated. We will definitely book her again. She is mature, intelligent, and incredibly reliable. Exactly what pet owners are looking for on Rover.”
About: I am an accredited trainer in basic obedience and own a black lab mobility service dog. Prefer to care for pets in the comfort of their own home. . Available seven days a week in south Vero greater area. Prefer to do all business before dark unless being asked to house sit overnight. I do not have a fenced yard nor the ability to walk large dogs unless they use a Gentle Leader or comparable. Prefer client's home for care.
About: I’ve had dogs, cats and birds my whole life. Within the last decade or so I’ve turned to reptiles and chickens. I’ll help with any pet, any age, and follow and special instructions when given them. I work full time mornings and available every evening and days off to take care of the needs of the animals in my care that day. I take extra precautions, give a lot of attention to details about the animal in my current care, and I’m very communicative to the owners.
“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: Love animals and have always had dogs. Most recently, my 14 year old retriever taught me all the tricks to get picky pups to take their pills. I have a fenced in yard and love taking furry friends for walks. My husband and I currently work 8 to 5 during the week and are off on weekends so there is plenty of time for pet care/love. I have a fenced in yard and live on a dirt, dead end street, perfect for walks. No other pets in the house currently. We could also stay at your place if it’s easier for your dogs (mine was a home body so I can relate).
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to care for playful puppies, help reinforce basic training, and provide gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Your pet will be treated like family! I work from home and have a very flexable schedule love having a ton of dogs available any time day or night weekends and holidays I have a huge fenced in yard with lots of room to play and run and lots of toys to play with large house love walks to
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!
About: I have been periodically dog sitting for family friends for about the last six years. I have experience with cats as well. I know how to feed, let out, walk, play with, administer medication to and clean up after both dogs and cats. I also really enjoy the job and helping people out in general. I am currently in flight school, so my schedule is all over the place. However, I have a lot of time that I do not need to be on campus/at the airport. I am on a block style schedule so the days of the week I am "on" shift and rotate a bit, but I am more than happy to work out what's best if you reach out. I will always treat your home as if it was my own. I take great care of my home and I wouldn't dream of bringing any harm to yours.
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’ve always loved animals and have plenty of experience caring for pets. I’m reliable, patient, and will make sure your pets get lots of love, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away! I am currently working part time at a family owned company. I am able to move my schedule around to accommodate your needs. My schedule is very flexible so I can be available when needed! I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog, who is crate trained. I am able to create your dog if needed, give special care and spend time with them to give them company.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my experience and comfort level with a wide range of pets and their needs. I have a background in dog training, which helps me understand their behavior, reinforce good habits, and confidently care for pets with challenging behaviors. I am also experienced in sitting for multiple animals at once while still giving each pet individualized attention. I can also administer medications and follow detailed care instructions. As a dog mom of four myself, I know how important trust, safety, and communication are-and I care and love every pet as though they were my own. I conduct my business from home, so I am mostly available anytime, and I can go anywhere. My schedule will revolve around the needs of the clients and their pets. I am also available for same day service most of the time, so I am willing to accommodate last minute requests as well. I will follow the client's directions for exactly how they want their pet cared for. I know my dogs and cats have their own specific needs, so I expect the pets I watch will too.
“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!! :)”
“Stacy was the perfect choice for our cats care while on vacation, our cats are not easy, and she was able to add an extra day to pay special attention to our senior cat! We will use her as our preferred sitter and highly recommend her!”
About: Hello! I have a love for animals and have had such a blast taking care of my family, friends, and client's pets over the years. I am new to Rover and I am looking forward to meeting new clients. I have cared for a variety of animals over the years including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, etc. No matter the critter, my standard remains the same: I treat your pet like my own! I'm very flexible and cater to every pet's individual needs. I enjoy the outdoors and taking pets with me to the dog park and/or trails right up the road. Message me today so we can set up a meet and greet! My schedule is currently flexible throughout the week so I am happy to cater to your scheduling needs! Please feel free to call or text me at anytime. My goal for at-home care of your pet is to keep them as happy and close to routine as possible! I am also happy to do any light cleaning or plant care as needed per home.
About: In addition to being a pet owner, I also worked at an animal shelter where I received specialized training on animal behavior. My friends and family have trusted me with their pets for 10+ years and I love working with dogs and cats. I’m currently working Monday-Friday until 3 or 4, but I have plenty of time in the evenings to go on walks, runs, and check in with your pets. I’m also free on weekends! I’m happy to stay close to home if that’s what your pet prefers, but I also have an SUV to take them to the beach, the dog park, or on a nice long walk. Unless we’re in a fenced in area, your pet will stay leashed while we run and play together!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vero Beach
We love Bunny!! When I ask her availability she always answers with an excited YES! She loves Penny and she WOULD love Ollie if he ever came out from under the bed! I so appreciate the photos she sends and the updates. The house is in proper order when we get home and we would absolutely use her again!
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 $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 November 2026, there are 972 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vero Beach. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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 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.
