About: 🐾 Hi there! I’m so excited to meet your furry family member! ❤️ As a lifelong animal lover, I know that every pet deserves love, patience, and lots of attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just relaxing with a new friend, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱 ✨ Here’s what you can expect when you book with me: 🐾 Plenty of love, cuddles, and playtime 🚶 Fun, safe walks at your dog’s pace 💧 Fresh water and feeding exactly as instructed 📸 Daily photo and video updates so you never miss a moment 💬 Quick communication and reliable care ❤️ Lots of patience and personalized attention for every pet I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your best friend. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family, making sure they receive the love, comfort, and attention they deserve. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease from the moment we meet. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing companion! Let’s make their time with me fun, safe, and full of tail wags! 🐾✨ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m consistent, responsible,🐾 and used to working around animals’ needs. With dog care specifically, I plan my day around their schedule—morning walks, feeding, bathroom breaks, and making sure they start the day active and comfortable. I make time during the day to check on them, give water, and provide attention or short play sessions so they stay calm and don’t get bored. In the evening, I keep a structured routine with feeding, another walk, and a final bathroom break before bedtime. I also use that time for basic care like cleaning up after them and making sure they’re safe and settled for the night. Weekly, I stay on top of things like cleaning food and water bowls, picking up waste consistently, and making sure the dog stays healthy, active, and well cared for. I’m reliable with routines, so I can keep a dog’s schedule stable, which helps them feel secure and well behaved. I care for pets with a strong focus on safety, trust, and respecting the environment they are in. In a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely so the dog stays in a familiar routine and feels comfortable. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times to prevent escapes, and I supervise dogs during walks, feeding, and playtime. I keep the environment clean by picking up after the dog immediately, making sure food and water bowls are clean, and preventing anything unsafe from being left within reach. I also pay attention to the dog’s behavior so I can quickly notice if something seems off or if they need extra care or attention. Most importantly, I treat the client’s home with respect—keeping things organized, locking up properly, and making sure everything is left as it was or cleaner. I aim to build trust by being reliable, responsible, and consistent so both the pet and owner feel safe and comfortable with me.🐶
About: I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience caring for cats, dogs, and lizards. I have two cats myself🐱. While I’m new to Rover, I regularly help my mom with her Rover pet sitting clients, which has given me hands on experience with feeding, playtime, walks, cleaning, and ensuring all pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m also experienced in kitten care as I have one myself. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s routine and specific needs. I’m a full-time college student at Palm Beach State College, with my classes mainly in the mornings on Monday-Wednesday and Thursday starting in October. I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. My schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care outside of my class hours. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment while following their normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special needs. I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.🐱🐶❤️
“Debbie has been great! We got a puppy on a whim a few days ago and when looking for a dog walker as we are trying to crate train, she came through with a quick response. We had a meet and greet within nearly 24hrs. She took notes and asked questions to ensure consistency for our pup! She had had great communication and shows enthusiasm for all her clients! Debbie has been Pawsome for sure :)”
“Bri is so amazing. Every time I reach out, often times very last minute, she has always always been able to help. Highly recommend her. She goes above and beyond- bringing in our packages and taking care of our car even when she only has to take care of our dog. Thank you Bri!”
About: I have a large home and fenced yard to care for your pet. I have rooms for space and common areas for play. I volunteer with animal shelters.

“I have already left a review for Crystal. Fawn-z likes her. He seems to respond to Crystal favorably. He appears to be happy once we get home. Our house is neat and clean; the same way we left it is how it looks when we get back home. Crystal is trustworthy. She loves and respects animals. You can't ask for better than that from a pet sitter. We are thrilled that we found Crystal and that Fawn-z feels comfortable with her. He's the judge and he definitely gives her a well-deserved 5-star rating.”
“Franklin is THE best! He took such great care of our dogs while we were out of town! They had so much fun and we felt so grateful for al the time and effort he put in to helping our pups!! Would definitely recommend!!”
About: Hi! I’m Tamara, and if your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and getting to care for them honestly doesn’t feel like work to me. Every pet has their own little personality, routines, and quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or would rather spend the day snuggled up on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. When you’re away, my goal is to make your pet feel as safe, loved, and stress-free as possible. I stick closely to their normal routine, follow every instruction carefully, and make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and exercise based on their individual needs. I also know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. That’s why I send lots of photo updates and messages throughout their stay so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I want you to feel like you’re right there with them. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety, happiness, and comfort always come first. I pay close attention to their behavior, make sure they have a clean and cozy environment, and treat them with the same love and patience I’d want for my own pets. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member, and I hope to become someone you can count on whenever you need a trusted sitter!! I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing, or simply relaxing together, I love making sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for throughout the day. Since I’m home often, I’m also able to provide companionship and make sure pets aren’t left alone for long periods of time while their owners are away! Safety starts with understanding each pet as an individual. Before caring for a new pet, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, comfort level, and any important details from their owner. Knowing what is normal for each pet helps me provide better care and recognize when something may be different. In my home, I provide a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, play, and enrichment while still making sure each pet’s safety comes first. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I keep their routine consistent, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I believe good pet care is about being attentive, patient, and proactive. I pay attention to changes in behavior, energy levels, eating habits, and overall well-being, and I keep owners updated so they always feel connected and informed!
“Alexandra is an absolute life saver. My ferret sitter canceled while we were on the road to out trip away. I was panicking because I had this trip booked weeks in advance. She stepped up and helped me out right away. She has been a Godsend . Has loved on my furbabies and my kitty. I cannot say enough thank yous and HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!! Thank you Alexandra will be asking you again on our next trips if you are available!!”
“Ashley was always prompt and Winter was always waiting for her. I felt so comfortable not having to worry about Winter while I was away.I hope she is available so I can book her for my trip in July.”
“Theresa did a fantastic job playing with my German Shepherd! He requires a lot of play time and she wore him out! She arrived on time and was very respectful of our space and home. We are looking forward to working with Theresa much more this summer!”
“I cannot recommend Joanne highly enough. She has been incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive with my dog. Her professionalism, punctuality, and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind. I always know my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for in her hands.”
About: I am a lifelong dog owner with experience handling and caring for all shapes and sizes. Each dog gets personalized care and treatment specific to their needs and activity level. I work from home in Wellington and have some available time to help with walks. My schedule is fairly flexible and can travel to Wellington, Loxahatchee, Royal Palm and some other areas in West Palm Beach. I do have the ability to take your pet on trail walks or trips to the park if they need longer or more stimulating walks. This is a longer service and can discuss the fee for this. A typical midday walk is 30 minutes and includes lots of love or even an organic treat if you permit them.
About: With over 4 years of experience in animal care, I am knowledgeable and confident with caring for all animals, cats and dogs of any breed, age, need, and temperament. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals.

I care for every pet as if they were my own while always following the owner’s specific instructions and routine. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and a clean, comfortable environment. I’m also patient and attentive to each pet’s individual personality, temperament, and needs so they feel safe and comfortable while in my care.

“Beatrice was wonderful. She took excellent care of my cats and sent an update with every visit. I had a peaceful vacation knowing my babies were well cared for. As it was my first time using someone from Rover, I am very pleased and will hopefully be able to book Beatrice again in the future.”
About: I have watched several different breeds from all age ranges. Some have needed special foods, medication, and routines that I have accommodated for. I have taken care of small to large sized dogs. For cats I have a history of taking care of them. I work part time so I have availability. I can let them out to walk every 4-5 hours, can mostly fit my schedule to your needs. I provide pets with fresh food and water, regular exercise and playtime, a clean and safe environment, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home I follow their care instructions closely, including schedules, medication, walks, litter box or cage cleaning. Overall just keeping the pet comfortable when boarding or doing a drop-in visit. As for just walking I like to keep the dog leashed, give them 20-30 minutes of exercise, or longer like 45 for more high energy dogs.

A friend recommended Steve to me and I’m so grateful. He was great with my two cats and made everything really easy. He was dependable and professional. He was also easy to communicate with and kept me updated. I felt comfortable knowing my sassy cats were in good hands. I’d definitely book with Steve again!
We love Debbie! She is an incredible dog walker, reliable, caring, communicative, and someone we could always trust with our dogs. She is especially patient with our little guy, who has some stranger-danger issues, and took the time to help him feel comfortable with her. She is truly perfect for what we need and gives us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for dependable and thoughtful care for their pets!
I have already left a review for Crystal. Fawn-z likes her. He seems to respond to Crystal favorably. He appears to be happy once we get home. Our house is neat and clean; the same way we left it is how it looks when we get back home. Crystal is trustworthy. She loves and respects animals.

He's the judge and he definitely gives her a well-deserved 5-star rating.
Kristen did such a wonderful job with my cat, Smokey! She always made sure his food was topped up and had a clean litter box and fresh water. Great communication. She also gave him lots of love and playtime like she was her own pet. Would definitely hire her again!
I cannot recommend Joanne highly enough. She has been incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive with my dog. Her professionalism, punctuality, and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind. I always know my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for in her hands.
Amanda was AMAZING with our cat! She was our savior last minute! She provided us with great photos, report card and communicated efficiently! She takes care of pets like they are her own! We felt at ease and never once had a doubt or drop of anxiety that lot of pet parents feel! Thank you Amanda!
Katie did a fantastic job caring for our two dogs. She was 100% reliable, prompt, and followed all of our instructions “to a T”. But most importantly, the dogs absolutely loved her — and that is saying a lot because they are both rescues (of course!) and our boy is actually very fearful and timid around new people. It was clear from the first meeting that Katie knows how to read canine body language and win over even scared or wary dogs. I felt totally comfortable leaving my babies in her capable hands, and she did not disappoint. She also assisted with the senior paraplegic foster dog we were caring for at the time of her visits, and was very capable of helping him to stand up and go potty using his special back-end lift harness, which can be a challenge for some people to get used to. In general, Katie went above and beyond and was super flexible and willing to accommodate our somewhat unusual needs. I wholeheartedly recommend her, as a loving, gentle, responsible and fully competent caretaker for dogs or cats of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. This is the pet sitter you want when only the best will do for your beloved four-legged family members!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Wellington stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Wellington. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
