“Nicole took such good care of Olive! It was last minute and she still took time to come by and meet her, make sure she was comfortable, ask for all of the necessary information and details, and Olive took to her immediately. I received regular updates and photos and came home to a happy and well cared for pup and clean home. I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She will care for your pets like they are her own.”

About: I have taken care of my two small dogs since I was eight years old after years of begging for one. I love all dogs and understand each one has their own special needs, since my dogs each need different foods, toys, and levels of attention. I am available for night time walks and most every weekend. I know how picky I am about who takes care of my dogs when I travel so I know what it takes to be a trustful, caring pet sitter who will put you at ease of mine when you're away. I am very responsible and will make sure that your dog's care is a priority and that all of their needs are met. I’ve walked and sat for all different types of dogs while living in NYC and have a wide range of experience whether that be hyperactive dogs who need to get their energy out or senior dogs who need a little extra care. I am currently working 9-5 during the week so I am available for any nightly walks or checks in and on the weekends! The weekends I have more flexibility and am available to dog sit or for walks! I have an apartment that is safe for any pet and am a short walk to multiple parks and dog parks! I also am available to stay in a clients home and would respect any rules you have for your pets and your home, as I know how much trust is placed in a pet caregiver. I will make sure to meticulously follow any eating, sleeping, and cleaning habits for the dogs and will respect any home.
“Mackenzie successfully hung out with my Sweet & SOUR cat over night. She sent several updates via pictures and videos! 10/10 recommend her to come love on your animals!”

About: I’ve had English Springer Spaniels my entire life, so being around dogs has always been second nature to me. Growing up with energetic, affectionate dogs taught me how important exercise, attention, patience, and play are for keeping dogs happy and healthy I currently work at a marina during weekdays but work at my own schedule. I am happy to drop everything and anything I need in order to take care of your pup. I provide attentive, reliable in-home pet care to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their own environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely including walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention while treating your home and pets with the same care and respect I would my own
“Jack was a wonderful sitter for our Penny girl. He was kind and attentive through the whole process. I am a bit “extra” when it comes to my dog, I love her so much and as a result she has many needs. Jack was open to everything I needed and wanted for herder g our trip and even walked her longer and more often than I asked. I will definitely be contacting him again for other trips we take in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my day-to-day life. i have always had medium sized dogs. I currently have a black lab that I trained when he was a puppy and care for him everyday. I have experience with feeding, training, walking, playing, and giving dogs plenty of love and attention. I’m comfortable learning each dog’s personality and routine and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I have also cared for my grandfathers german shepherd on multiple occasions when he has left town. I'm from Massachusetts so I go to Florida for college and I miss my dog and caring for other dogs will help fill that void. As a nursing student, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I am currently a nursing student at Palm Beach Atlantic University and I have school Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday with Thursday, Friday and the weekend off. I could always be available after school around 4pm for dinner time feedings or nightly walks. Thursday, Friday and the weekend I am available for breakfast and dinner feedings, walks throughout the day, and house sitting. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make their safety and comfort my top priority. I’ll follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect their safety. I also respect each pet’s personality and boundaries and give them plenty of attention, affection, and space when needed. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Valerie was great! From the moment we met her we knew Rocky would be in greats hands. She took Rocky on many walks and they played plenty of fetch. Valerie is a trustworthy and reliable Rover sitter, we are happy we found her.”

“Chyna is an excellent dog sitter. She watched my Frenchie for a week and he has a very particular set of instruction due to some health issues that Chyna followed to a tee. I highly recommend her. Thank you!!”

“Susana was a delight and we couldn’t be more grateful for the way she cared for and loved on our sweet boy. She was respectful, responsive, and sent so many pix/videos. Highly recommend!”

“Lin was amazing at caring for our dog while we were away! I had to book last minute and she was able to take care of everything for us. You can really tell that she cares for dogs. She was great with communication and sending updates also. Highly recommend!”

“Toni was very accommodating to my last minute request. She stayed in my home while we were away on vacation and took amazing care of my senior dogs. The house was left spotless and she sent me many updates throughout the stay to let us know how they were doing. She was very knowledgeable and reliable in caring for my special-needs dog. She gave him insulin twice a day along with his seizure medication. Would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: Don’t see that I’m available when you’d like to book? Please feel free to message me, and I’ll see if I can accommodate. Thank you for your interest! PLEASE NOTE: I WORK A FULL-TIME JOB IN AN OFFICE (based in Juno Beach) and may not be able to check on your pets as frequently as you’d like, especially during the day. I have experience caring all kinds of animals, personally and professionally for more than 10 years. Growing up and through adulthood, my family always owned Golden Retrievers. When I was young, I expressed interest in animal care and owning my own pets, ranging from small mammals, birds, and reptiles. In my teenage years, I started out pet sitting for family friends and have continued to pick up pet/house sitting gigs whenever and wherever I can. I also have experience administering medication to some of the animals I’ve cared for. Professionally, I have worked at a veterinary hospital and boarding facility for two summers. At this facility, I was responsible for the care and socialization of dogs of various sizes and demeanors. I also worked at my local humane society caring for cats and dogs with different lead styles, temperaments and bite thresholds. I was responsible for providing the dogs with three walks a day. Through this job, I also have some experience with clicker training and administering bordatella and rabies vaccines to incoming stray dogs. Looking to make extra money doing what I love! I do work full time, so my most open days for all services are Saturday and Sunday. However, I can accommodate AM drop in visits any day of the week. And I am open to pet sitting in your home any day, as long I can work it around my full time job. I provide regular photos and updates to owners to build and instill trust. I also make sure to follow care instructions as written to ensure proper care as intended. And I make sure to bring a calm and confident energy when entering and inhabiting your pet’s space. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority!
“Ella took great care of Luna. She sent lots of pictures and daily updates on all the fun Luna was having. Would definitely love to have Ella to look after Luna again ☺️”

“I love leaving my pup with Josie! I always feel like Roo is in the best of hands and really appreciate all the updates. She really shows my pup love and it makes me feel so much better while being away!”

About: I love dogs and love to be active. I have many years of experience taking care of dogs. I love caring for them like mine! I currently am not working so all my attention will be taking care of you pup! I don’t think pets should be left alone for long periods of time. My priority is spending as much time with them! I have another dog and her name is cookie! We love going on walks and getting out of the house as much as we can. Your dog will not be bored here!
“Gwen watched our Doberman puppy for 5 days while we rushed to a medical emergency for my mother. She had great communication. She walks other dogs, so we had a neighbor come in to let the puppy out (still working on training) and Gwen also communicated with the neighbor which took that extra stress off of me. I would use her again.”

About: For the past five years, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets right here in our neighborhood, building a reputation as a reliable and loving sitter. Because I also have extensive experience as a neighborhood babysitter, safety, scheduling, and giving undivided attention are second nature to me. Whether it's keeping a high-energy pup entertained or making sure a shy cat feels safe, I treat every animal with the same patience and care I bring to childcare. As a proud pet mom myself to my dog, Indigo, and my two cats, I completely understand how important a routine is. I know firsthand that dogs and cats have very different personalities and needs, and I'm fully equipped to handle both! From structured walks and playtime to feeding schedules and cozy cuddle sessions, your furry family members will be in safe, experienced, and loving hands while you're away. Because I work part-time, my routine is structured directly around my shifts. I always coordinate my exact visit times with you in advance so you know exactly when to expect me! As an experienced cat mom of two felines and a long-time neighborhood babysitter, I know that every cat has a totally unique personality. Whether your kitty is a social butterfly who craves attention or a shy hider who needs their space, I tailor my visits entirely to their comfort level. During every visit, you can expect: Reliable Routines: I strictly follow your feeding schedules, fresh water refills, and specific treats or medication routines. Spotless Litter Boxes: Cleanliness is a top priority for me—I keep the litter area tidy and scooped during every visit. Playtime & Cuddles: For playful kitties, I’ll bring out the laser pointers, wand toys, and catnip. For calmer cats, I'm happy to provide gentle chin scratches or quiet companionship. Great Communication & Updates: You’ll get detailed updates and plenty of cute photo check-ins so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing. Safety First: My 5 years of experience looking after neighborhood pets and children means I am incredibly vigilant about closed doors, secure locks, and a safe environment. I treat your home with total respect and your cats like they are my own family!
“Adrianna was so helpful and a lifesaver! She is clearly an animal lover and it put my mind at ease leaving my puppy for the first time. She provided lots of updates and photos, and my puppy loved her! She went above and beyond 👍”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Palm Beach
We had the pleasure of having Marvin take care of our dogs while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Marvin is a responsible, kind, and trustworthy young man who truly cared for our pets as if they were his own. He kept us updated, made sure they were well cared for, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs absolutely loved him! We highly recommend Marvin to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.

Siddonie did an absolute AMAZING job taking care of our german shepherd, Luna! Our previous sitter cancelled the DAY OF our cruise while we were already boarding the ship so I was panicking, but Siddonie was able to drop everything and take care of our sweet girl. Luna is very shy and has a hard time eating her food right away, but Siddonie made her comfortable enough to get her to eat and I am so thankful. I would definitely rebook Siddonie in the future!!

Andres did an awesome job taking care of Stewie and my senior dog PJ who needs extra care. He played with Stewie and gave PJ all his medications as directed. He sent me regular pictures and updates while I was away which I appreciated so much. When I returned home, everything was clean and orderly. I will definitely be using him again. Thank you Andres!

Somyr was absolutely wonderful with Kingston. From the very beginning, she kept us informed and at ease, sending sweet updates and pictures that truly meant a lot to us. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with our love bug and treated him with so much care and attention. Knowing he was happy, comfortable, and loved made all the difference. If you're looking for a loving pet sitter. I highly recommend Somyr to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. When she left, Kingston was looking for her. My husband had to take him out front to show him that she was gone.

Ashley was great! She sent pics each day we were gone. Followed all instructions and the boys loved her just as much! When she came to do the 'meet and greet' she brought a little sack of treats and they boys just followed her around! Her communication was great and the house looked just as it did when we left! We already have her booked for another weekend!! :)

FAQs for House Sitting - West Palm Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in West Palm Beach on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,987 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Palm 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 West Palm 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 West Palm 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 West Palm 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 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 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.

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.
