“Izzy was the BEST! She was so attentive with our kitties while we were away. She sent pictures and a little recap everyday. We had peace of mind knowing they were being well taken care. Izzy also went above and beyond and brought in packages & mail! We are so happy to have found her.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have had all types of animals big and small! I get to know each animal and provide them with the care they need. I will care for them like my own. I am currently in Nursing school but can try to accommodate to take care of your pets! I am free most weekends. My weekdays are mostly free after 12 or 1. I am very attentive to each animal and can provide trusting care. I will make sure they get potty breaks, play time, and plenty of love.

About: I have worked with children and animals for as long as I can remember. Nothing gives me more joy than being able to spend my time sharing love and care with the ones who need it most. I worked as a nanny for over a decade while putting myself through school, earning a masters degree in psychology. Throughout that time, taking care of their pets was often part of my responsibility. When they went away, they knew their pets would have family still with them. I have lived with and around animals my whole life. I have owned both dogs and cats and can handle medication administration as needed. What sets me apart from other sitters is my professionalism. You are ensured consistency and reliability from beginning to end. From the first introduction, you will feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I put a lot of care, dedication, and energy into everything I do. Working with animals on a part-time basis allows me to focus the rest of my time on the projects I am passionate about. Since my schedule is entirely my own, I have a lot of flexibility and can work with you to meet your needs. I know just how scary it is to leave your pet with someone new. Because I have spent my life dedicated to caretaking, I have always expected the most from my personal pet sitters. I’m so happy to be able to pay that forward. You deserve to get some rest when you are away! That starts with open and responsive communication, reliability, and honesty. I approach this job the way I do anything…with hard work! I will love your pet like it’s my own, and am prepared to go the extra mile if any emergency should arise.

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Love to take them for walks and play time to get them out in the world. Currently not working set schedules, so I am available at all times to walk and care for your dog or puppies! Day or night, rain or shine! I am happy to play with the dogs at the owners home and take them on long walks. My place isn't set up for their care.

About: Hi, my name is Chandra! I’m a dependable, caring animal lover with experience providing professional pet care through Wag. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’ve even had pet parents specifically request me again after previous visits. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I make sure to follow your instructions closely and give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and cuddles. I also understand how important communication is when someone else is caring for your pet, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos while they’re with me! I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether you need a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I’ll treat your pet like part of the family. 🐾 I’m home most of the day, so pet care fits very naturally into my routine! I have plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of attention throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate your pet’s normal routine and make sure they aren’t left alone for long periods. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always follow their normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and a comfortable place to relax. I’m also happy to accommodate crates, feeding schedules, medications, or any special instructions to help your pet feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and have also had experience raising puppies and kittens. I love cats just as much. I have an 8 year old dog named Percy, and 10 year old cat named Toulouse who love and play with another all day! I have experience with dogs ranging from different sizes and personalities, but no matter what I know each dog is special. I’ve treated all of the animals in my life like they’re family, and have built a loving relationship with each and would love the opportunity to get to know your animals as well. I understand how important it is to treat each animal with love and respect, and will do everything in my power to ensure the safety and happiness of your furry family member. I’m available most mornings and nights. I am also most afternoons depending on the week and the clients I have booked for my regular job. On Fridays and weekends I have the most flexibility! I treat each animal with the safety and care they deserve! I believe all animals are apart of the family and should always be treated as such.

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!

About: As a lover of dogs, I have been surrounded by my furry family members for as long as I can remember and I can confidently say that they always will be. I have worked for 3 years, overseeing a kennel which is held to the highest standard of care. I have extensive experience with puppy training and socializing, developing and strong set of skills and knowledge of the early stages of puppyhood. I also have knowledge of dog grooming and have become familiar with the doodle coat types, as well as coats that may require less maintenance. I have also done casual pet sitting for friends and family in addition to my more professional experience. I believe that pets are a gift and should be cherished and given the healthiest and happiest life possible. I am currently a full-time student at University so my time is limited but still allows for the ability to offer select services. I am able to provide care during the mornings between classes, however, please keep in mind my time is allotted to other responsibilities as well. While I am unable to offer in home care services, I am able to provide drop in services. The main focus of mine is to ensure the safety of both your pet and myself. This includes following the provided instructions and being responsible and respectful of your home and your pet. I want my clients to trust me and feel confident in my capabilities of providing for their furry family members.

About: My whole life there’s always been a furry member of my family. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve given medication when needed also very careful with reactive/timid dogs. I work part time so I’m free a majority of the time. Rover will be a fun addition to my schedule. My work allows me to adjust my schedule with any future bookings I may have. Si hablo español también 😌 The community I live in is fenced off from the main road. There is a dog friendly play area in my community as well which is where I plan to do any off leash activities, I like to make sure the play area is empty (usually is). I also have 2 small children in my home but they’ve been around dogs their whole lives so they know how to act with animals and how to treat them with respect

Kayla is awesome! I had to leave town and my cat suddenly developed some eye issues. She only has one eye and had health problems in the past which almost caused her to lose it. Seeing it flare up at the last minute made me super worried, and I just happened to find Kayla on rover. When I saw she had a veterinary experience, I messaged her very late that night to see if she could squeeze me in. She happened to be up, met me and my cat the next morning, and totally saved the day. She sent lots of pics & updates. Was timely, communicative and all around a pleasure to work with. It is very hard for me to trust strangers in my home as well as with my fur babies but she immediately put us at ease. Thank you!!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - West Palm Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Palm Beach is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $36 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 October 2026, there are 3,236 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Palm 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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Palm Beach. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 .

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.
