“Randi is great! Our dog Lenny is anxious and he did really well with her. She even did extra with house by vacuuming, watering plants and putting out trash. Your fur babies are in good hands with Randi.”
“Hannah was great with the pups! She stayed with them for the weekend and was very communicative throughout. She sent picture updates as the weekend went on. I came back to two very happy pups and a clean house.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. For the past four years, I’ve been trusted by friends and neighbors to pet sit, walk, and care for their dogs while they’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I’ve also learned a lot through my mom’s experience with Rover, which gave me a strong understanding of what pet parents look for and how to provide dependable, loving care. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priority. Pet care fits very well into my schedule. I work part-time as a restaurant hostess in the evenings, usually from around 2:30–8:30, only 2–3 nights a week. This allows me to be available during mornings, afternoons, after work at night if needed, and most days for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and quality time. I’m very organized and always plan my work shifts around pets’ routines to make sure they get consistent, reliable care. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, litter boxes, medications if needed, and playtime. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while also respecting their space. I keep homes clean and secure, and I always provide updates and photos so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Taryn was wonderful!! She was very responsive, responsible and caring. Scarlett was very well taken care of and my house was in perfect condition. I highly recommend Taryn for all of your pet care needs.”
About: I prioritize giving them affection and joy, making sure they are well-fed, active, happy, and taken outside for potty breaks right when they need it or scheduled to. I can fit in anytime as per your preference, I am flexible with my schedule. If something is on the way, I will immediately inform you. I prioritize communication with my clients, providing regular updates, photos, and prompt notifications in case of any emergencies. I make sure to accommodate your pet’s needs and your expectations, and I will give immediate attention to any concerns or messages you may have.
“Adrienne was awesome! She went above and beyond to hang out with my pups and keep me constantly updated with pictures and videos so I could enjoy my vacation instead of worrying about my pups. Will definitely contact her again when I head out of town. Thanks for everything ?”
“Robert was so great with our pitbull. He was willing to meet him ahead of time to make sure Finn would be good and get to know the new space. Robert was quick to communicate back. For someone who doesn't leave their dog with just anyone, it was easy for me to leave him with Robert. Robert genuinely loves dogs, and helped save our night out while we were on vacation.”
About: For the past year I’ve been helping look after my partner’s five very rambunctious Australian Shepherds, and honestly, getting to know all their little quirks has been one of my favorite things. Your pet’s happiness and safety always come first with me. I’m not working right now, But i currently attend Flagker College where i’m Majoring in Theatre Arts. In the morning, i usually have classes which is from 10 am all the way till 12-1. so for the time being I’ve got plenty of time to give your pet real, focused attention walks, feeding, or just hanging out and keeping them company. This isn’t just a side gig to me, I actually love it. I treat every home and every pet like they’re special, whether I’m sitting for one night or a whole week. I’ll stick to your routines, keep things clean and calm, and pay close attention to whatever each animal needs. I pick things up quick, and at the end of the day I just want your pet (and you) to trust me.
About: I am a college student coming from a home of many animals even goats! I grew up as a runner and my pup was my best bud. I am a college student missing my pets a little extra! That being said animals hold a special place and deserve the best care and I cant wait to meet yours. I am a student athlete without a job and willing to do what it takes to make sure my pets are in the best care. I currently am not able to board a pet right now but would love and be able to take animals for walks, runs, and drives
“Bianca was super responsive and sweet! She took great care of my 2 kitties and my elder baby :) Even handled an unexpected potty accident! OMG! Thank you!! The house was in perfect condition when we came back as well. Great experience”

I work part-time at a local summer school club, which gives me a very stable, predictable schedule.

“Benjamin did a fantastic job with our three big dogs! Including my very territorial German Shepherd which was such a relief and weight off of my shoulders since the previous sitter could not handle him at all! Also keeping the yard and house tidy! Very much appreciated!!!!”
“Genevieve was great with our two elderly dogs. Our oldest had some health issues and Genevieve picked up medicine for her and applied and kept us updated with texts and photos. Dogs were happy and safe while we were away. Would highly Recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vilano Beach
This was our first time leaving our dog in our home with a sitter and we had a great experience with Michelle. She was a good communicator and cared for our dog per our instructions. Getting videos of Michelle playing with our dog gave us piece of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!
Katie is totally awesome and I would give her a 10 if allowed! Our fur baby loves her. She exercises her with walks, plays with her in the back yard and even chases her around the counter/hallway. She leaves Coco happy to have her here - so much so that Coco will look around the house after she has left hoping for her play pal. Cannot say enough good things about Katie. You will not go wrong to hire her to watch your pet and home.
Linda was an amazing dog sitter for our cocker spaniel. She was willing to stay in our home for a long weekend and keep our elder dogs routine. Surprising she coaxed our dog to visit the beach and take a surf side walk. When we returned our happy dog met us at the door and was full of stories as well as dogs can communicate. Linda was trustworthy and respectful in our home. We highly recommend Linda Kane.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,023 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vilano 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 Vilano 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 Vilano 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 Vilano 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 , 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 .
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 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.
