“Julia did an amazing job caring for not only our pup but also our two rats! She kept us feeling comfortable throughout our trip by providing consistent updates and plenty of photos. She treated our home with great respect and truly went above and beyond. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy.”
“Isabelle was amazing! She took excellent care of our two pups, as well as everything at our home for an extended 12 day trip abroad. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you Isabelle!”
“Bunny has been our Go-To for taking care of Hank when we go away. She always goes above and beyond for us and when we get back we are relieved that Hank is super excited and looks well cared for but there’s not a ton of stuff for us to do around the house. Thanks Bunny P.S. Hank thanks you too!”
“Melissa is top-notch! So responsible, friendly, trustworthy and knowledgeable. 100% recommend her. And our pup Bailey do you interesting clearly adores her also! Thank you, Melissa!”
About: I’ve always had pets in my life and now would pass on that love and compassion to your dog. Lots of experience in old and young dogs. I am retired and have extra time so my friend told me about Rover and she loves it so I want to enjoy the experience also! I will make whatever steps necessary that are needed to care for your dog in your home. At my home, they will have free roaming of a 2000 square-foot home and enjoy my daughter and my granddaughter also helping love your dog.
About: I have over 30 years of personal experience owning dogs, having almost 4 at once on my family's country farm growing up. Since I was a toddler I've had an easy connection with dogs that allows me to make fury friends easly. I've seen the good and bad of what it takes to look after them, from a new puppy to a sunset dog. I work a full time but I'm open to mornings from 7-9:30am and any hour after 7:30 pm after working. I'm otherwise free otherwise all day on Monday and Thursday I pay extra attention to wants and needs while ensuring food and water are always available. I keep pets in the designated area unless otherwise allowed. I would prefer to sit at your house on camera if possible as I do have 2 dogs at home that are friendly but want to make sure there is ample room for everyone.
About: I'm home 22 out of 24 hours in the day. I've had at least 4 pets at all times for as long as I can remember. From dogs, to cats, bantam chickens, lop-eared and Angora bunnies, hamsters, African frogs, turtles, to my sweet potbelly pig, Carnita ("Nita"). Life feels fullest when animals are part of my daily routine. Recently, my Nita unexpectedly passed away (10/26/23). She was like a child to me. Although she left behind 1 dog and 2 cats, the house feels much emptier. Buddy, the dog, says he'd love some company to pick up the mood & keep his heart young. 😌 *In effort to maintain a balanced environment, I require a two (2) night minimum for boarding (2 day min. for daycare)* I work from home; I have plenty of time in-between Zoom calls to love on and attend to your little darlings. Permitting I have a few days notice, I will gladly care for yours during the week & on weekends too. I live in a small gated community in Vero Beach. My yard is not fenced; however, I can/do leash them up as often as needed for potty breaks and longer walks 1-2x daily (anywhere from 1.5-4 miles each go). I run too. My own dog is a little beyond his running days, so I use a jogger. Depending on your pup's activity level, they could run alongside me, or possibly hitch a ride in the stroller! In Your Home (house sitting or drop ins): I am happy to abide by your current schedule, making the transition of your trip easy on your fur babies. I am also resourceful, and will find the best outdoor fun for them, in the case that they need some fun distractions to tire them out!
“We really enjoyed having her stay with our dogs! She was so nice and caring, and I really appreciated that she checked on them regularly throughout the day. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were getting plenty of attention while we were away. I also really liked that she’s studying veterinary medicine—it made me feel even more comfortable knowing our dogs were in such caring and knowledgeable hands. We’d definitely have her watch them again!”
About: I was a vet tech for 15 years. I’ll treat your pet with loving kindness and respect. I know how to keep your pet comfortable and safe. I am a proud pug mom and she is like my child. I will treat your fur kid the same way. I also have experience with senior pets, as I had an old pug, who was the love of my life. I’m a runner and I can keep up with your pet. Whether it’s a walk during the day, medication administered, a one mile run with your puppy, hanging with them while you go on vacation…I’m here for you and your pet! My schedule is currently open to take care of your fur babies. Please contact me for availability, as things may be filling up as time goes on. I will care for your pets in your home! I am familiar with crate and potty training. I have 15 years experience in the veterinary tech field so I am knowledgeable. I am familiar with caring for dogs and cats.
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: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, Rabbits, sugar gliders. Young, old, special needs. I do it all. I believe pets are like children, they love to learn. I am recently retired so I can devote as much time as needed for your furry ( not so furry) babies. A lot of love to give. I prefer to sit in the clients home as I feel the pet will be less nervous or anxious in familiar surroundings. I like the pet to get to know me in their own time. Trust is earned.
About: I have always been and will be my friends and families go to dog and cat sitter- I recently became a first time homeowner and am looking for ways to make any additional income to help with expenses! I’ve grown up around animals and have had a combined total of 7 dogs and 4 cats in my lifetime! I currently have a 3 year old Golden Retriever male named Beans, and a 5 year old rescue tabby named Papaya! I’m currently working 2 part time jobs that both allow my schedule to be pretty flexible! If given enough notice, I can adjust my schedules to accommodate. If not, I typically work M/W 5pm-7pm and Thurs-Sat 10am-3pm I have a 3 year old Male Golden Retriever named Beans and a 5 year old Male Rescue Cat named Papaya. Both are very friendly and well socialized so I am open to boarding, but ideally I’m looking for dog walking services/ homecare visits!
About: I have had pets most of my life and will treat them with love and kindness. I have also volunteered for Frenchbull dog foster in the past. I am a stay at home mom and homeschool my kids, which means I am home most of the time. I have occasional outings, but I will be able to be there to make sure they go out and get lots of love. I do have chickens, but I have them blocked off with a closed in fence in our yard. I do have a big yard that is completely fenced. I will make sure your family member is comfortable and fed. Make sure they feel safe and welcomed. I will follow any and all rules or instructions presented to me for their pet and make sure they have fun. :)
“Kerrie is the absolute best when it comes to watching our sweet little Frenchie, Ramsey. She always checks in with me and keeps me posted with their activities throughout the day. She sends lots of pictures of their activities and upon arrival from my weekend my house is nice and clean. I highly recommend her with your fur babies!”
About: Hi! My name is Hailey, and I absolutely love caring for animals. I’m a third-year Biology student at UCF with a passion for animal care and conservation, and I’m excited to bring that passion to Rover! I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats through my own pets, volunteer work, and everyday animal handling. At home, I have my energetic French bulldog, Lola, and my wonderful cat, Popper. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I help with cage cleanings, animal socialization, and dog walking. These experiences have taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and understanding each animal’s individual personality are. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some extra playtime, a calm companion, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. Outside of Rover, I’m pursuing my Biology degree with an interest in continuing my education in veterinary sciences. Working with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I'm currently a full-time student and working part-time, so most days I'm not available. However, I am free every Saturday and Wednesday, so I'd be happy to stop in and care for your pets at any time on those days! I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, and keep you updated with photos so you know they’re happy and safe.
“Stephanie is absolutely fabulous! She’s extremely accommodating, fantastic communicator, my dog’s had a great time with her, and I will definitely be using Stephanie again. I can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough – your fur babies and your home will be incredibly well taken care of with Stephanie.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and have always had a huge love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with energetic puppies as well as senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, baths, medications, cleaning up after pets, and keeping them company. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’ll do my best to keep their normal schedule so they feel right at home I currently work part-time at Domino’s, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and boarding depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to communicate with pet parents ahead of time to make sure I can provide the time and attention their pets need. I’m reliable, punctual, and will always make your pets a priority while they’re in my care. My biggest priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have experience with multiple pets and understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, special instructions, and keeping pets in a clean and safe environment. I will always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for. ❤️🐾
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both small and large dogs, including breeds such as Yorkshire Terriers, Labrador Retrievers, Goldendoodles, and more. I’ve also owned several indoor-only cats over the years, giving me a solid understanding of feline care and behavior. I know that every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to provide the same love, patience, and attention they receive at home so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home Monday through Friday about 95% of the time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Unless I’m traveling for work or on holiday, I’m available for pet care, including during most major holidays. I have a home with a large, securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore. My beloved Thumper, a 14-year-old Jack Russell Terrier/Dachshund mix, crossed the rainbow bridge on April 24, 2026. While I no longer have pets of my own, caring for other people’s dogs and cats has become a meaningful way for me to continue sharing the love and companionship that animals bring. Whether your pet enjoys playtime or simply relaxing nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Dogs in my care enjoy daily morning and evening neighborhood walks, and they’re welcome to cuddle on the furniture and even the bed if that’s what they’re accustomed to at home. When house sitting, I treat your non-smoking/non-vaping home with the same respect and care as I would my own. In addition to providing attentive, loving care for your pets, I’m happy to perform light housekeeping, water indoor and outdoor plants, bring in mail or packages, and take care of other small household tasks we’ve agreed upon. My goal is to keep your pets happy, maintain their normal routine, and give you peace of mind while you’re away. When your pet stays with me, they’ll enjoy a clean, comfortable home with plenty of cozy dog beds, a large, securely fenced backyard for zoomies and playtime, and a toy box filled with fun toys. As a special welcome, every first-time boarding guest gets to take home a toy as a souvenir from their Dogcation! I believe pet parents deserve peace of mind while they’re away, so I provide daily photo and video updates, along with a personalized report card summarizing your pet’s stay, activities, eating habits, and overall experience. Because I work from home most of the week, I can offer plenty of one-on-one attention and companionship tailored to your pet’s individual needs. Whether they love to play, cuddle, or simply relax nearby, they’ll receive lots of love and personalized care. I’m highly organized, reliable, and flexible whenever possible with drop-off and pick-up times, including accommodating last-minute schedule changes. My goal is to make your pet’s stay as fun, safe, and stress free as possible for both you and your furry family member(s).
“Kristina went above and beyond to make sure Kiba was well taken care of. She truly cares about all of her animals and she made sure that our dog was comfortable with her tending to him before by spending some time with him prior to the house sitting. This made me feel secure as well that my pet and my home was cared for. I looked forward to the many daily pictures and updates while we were away. I look forward to using her again!”

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 Wabasso 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 Wabasso 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 Wabasso 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wabasso. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
