“Anthony did amazing with drop-in visits for my bunny. Despite being new to caring for a bunny, he didn’t bat an eye to accept a request and help care for her over the holidays. He was super attentive to the unique care she needed. He is trustworthy, communicative, and punctual. He will be my go-to from now on for any pet needs in the future!”
“This is my second time booking Leo! He showed up exactly when scheduled and remembered details from the first booking that I had forgotten to re-share. Thank you so much for taking care of my two little ones!”
“Galyna is amazing! Great at communicating, very sweet and polite. She was respectful of my home and pets, and I would definitely recommend her and hire her again. She brought me peace of mind!”
“Jonathan was excellent with Scotch and Soda. He was consistently punctual, attentive, and clearly enjoyed spending time with them, which gave us a great deal of confidence while we were away. Communication was prompt, and it was obvious that he genuinely cared about making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. We came home to two happy dogs, and I would absolutely book Jonathan again. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring.”
“Erika is INCREDIBLE! I would recommend her 1000 times over. My cat is a bit shy and takes a bit to warm up. She sat with him and made sure he was comfortable. She played with him and took care of everything he needed and sent so many wonderful updates.”

I provide attentive care, consistent communication, and a safe, comfortable environment for every pet I care for.

Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care, I treat every pet with the same attention and respect I’d want for my own. I’m especially great with active dogs that enjoy exercise and outdoor walks, but I’m also patient with shy pets, senior dogs, and pets that need a calmer approach. I make sure owners stay updated with photos, videos, and quick responses throughout each visit or stay. My goal is simple: keep your pet safe, comfortable, active, and happy while giving you peace of mind.

“Jessica was wonderful! Very professional, obviously loves pets, and took great care of my dog Jake! She was very communicative and sent several pictures. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals and have been around them for most of my life. I’ve had cats since I was 5 and dogs since I was 10, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my everyday life. During college, I was far from home and really missed spending time with my own pets, so I started pet sitting regularly. It became a great way for me to still have animals in my life while helping other people care for theirs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I work remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pets, take them on walks, play with them, or simply keep them company. I’m generally available during the day as well as evenings and nights. I just need a little notice so I can organize my schedule around your pet’s routine. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I always follow the owner’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I’ll make sure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and company. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“I can’t say enough good things about Kelly! She was so reliable, friendly, kind, attentive, caring and sweet with my dog Benny. She went above and beyond to help me when I was in need. I am forever grateful to find Kelly and will recommend her to anyone!! I was so nervous about finding the right sitter for my high maintenance doggy but Kelly knew exactly what to do. Always sending me photos and videos while she’s caring for him. Checking in and out with me when she comes and goes. Always on time or early. 10000/10!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was the age of 5 with my first puppy! I have 2 Yorkshire terriers of my own whom my oldest is 11 and youngest is 5 I love dogs and all animals and will always treat them with the upmost love and care as if they were my own! Always I understand how much our pets are like family to us! I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, with some days in the office and some days at home, which allows me to integrate your pet into my daily and weekly routine easily. On the days I work from home, I can spend more time with your pet, providing regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Even on in-office days, I plan my mornings and evenings around feeding, exercise, and bonding time. I have a fenced house where the dogs will have plenty of space to run and have fun as well as two friendly doggies, they are fully vaccinated to date and have flea/tick protection as well as the grassed area.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a diverse range of animals, from playful puppies to wise seniors. Whether it's training puppies or providing gentle care for seniors, I bring a deep understanding and love for every furry friend entrusted to me. Being an online college student gives me the flexibility to prioritize your pet's needs. I can accommodate house sitting, playtime, walks, and adapt to any schedule changes your pet requires. Additionally, I offer weekend boarding for added convenience. In my home or yours, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for your pets. Whether it's providing a secure space, following strict feeding and medication schedules, or maintaining a clean and pet-friendly environment, I ensure your pet receives the highest level of care and attention.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is growing up with three Jack Russells tearing through our house, so I learned pretty quickly that loving animals also means understanding their energy, personalities, body language, and needs. My family has always adopted from shelters, and our animals have never felt like “pets.” They are family members, and I treat the animals in my care the same way. I’m attentive, hands on, and not afraid of the messy parts of caring for them, whether that means checking a dog’s mouth when something seems wrong, cleaning up an accident, noticing a change in behavior, or simply giving them the patience and affection they need. I truly believe animals deserve someone who pays attention and takes their care seriously. I’m responsible, respectful, comfortable with both dogs and cats, and very used to all the stinky, silly, chaotic, and loving energy that comes with them. Trust me, I get it, and I’m your gal! I’m currently transitioning careers, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. I genuinely love being outdoors, walking, exploring, and appreciating nature, so having a furry companion along makes it even better! After recently losing my Chihuahua of 10 years, spending time with animals brings me so much joy. Since my condo doesn’t allow pets of my own, I have a whole lot of love and attention waiting for yours. Trust and communication are incredibly important to me when someone is placing their pet in my care. I’ll always be reachable and transparent about what our day looks like, with plenty of text updates and photos along the way. I pay close attention to each animal’s behavior, comfort, routine, and surroundings, and I’m happy to follow whatever instructions help your pet feel safest and most at home. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a comfortable owner, and a safe, loving experience for everyone.
About: I'll start this by saying I am an animal lover, I'll go as far as to say that I like animals more than I like people. I myself am a dog owner. Unfortunately she is back in my hometown taken care of by my mom and I miss her like crazy. But together with my mom we have raised an amazing 18 year old beagle. I have always made sure that she eats healthy (I am very strict about that), and that she gets plenty of exercise. And of course I have always provided plenty of love and play time. I have several friends who are dog owners and when we hang out I am always looking forward to playing with their pets and taking care of them. I am responsible, honest and punctual and I have a great work ethic If you do trust me with your pet be assured that I will give a 100% to make sure I complete my duties and that your four-legged baby will be happy, loved and safe.
About: Me and my husband have been working from home since the pandemic, which allows us to share a lot of time together, including with our dog Paris, she is a very sensible and friendly 5-year-old dog. Thanks to the fact that we have the availability to be at home, we make at least two outings a day with our pet and the dogs that we take care of, we also try to take them to carry out our errands if it is not complicated... the dogs that take care of us do not remain alone since we are attentive to them From the moment they arrive at our house they become another member of the family. If it is an adult dog, we try to be aware of their needs. We ask all the necessary questions to care for each pet since they are children who need help. love and attention. I have been taking care of dogs for more than six years and I also have dogs which I trained behavior and help them share with others if they are scared. I like to take them for a walk, play with them, a happy puppy, a happy family. I accept dog of all ages Im not working so im full time at home so I wake up around 8 am and take the dogs out for a walk.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bay Harbor Islands
Jessica is one of thee BEST pet sitters I have ever had! For real! 😃 She goes above & beyond to make your pets feel comfortable and happy. My 2 cats instantly loved her when she walked in the room and approached her. She has a wonderful personality, a calming sweet aura, and just so kind. I will absolutely hire her again whenever I go on a trip home. My cats look so happy 😀 in all the photos n vids she has sent!
Leo has been very responsible when taking care of my two cats, who are also really shy. I could even tell from the photos that he was able to gain their trust in a short amount of time, which is quite difficult to do. I would definitely book him again without hesitation and highly recommend him
We can’t say enough about the level of care that Stephanie provides for us. This is the second time we’ve booked her and everything was perfect. She is very punctual and although they were just check-in visits, she went beyond just feeding & watering. We will absolutely work with her in the future and we highly recommend her services!
Marianna was absolutely wonderful with Thor. She was communicative, sent detailed updates with photos after every visit, and clearly went above and beyond — even navigating flooding from a storm to make sure she got to him on time. She noticed small details, like mixing his leftovers with fresh food and topping off his water fountain, and made sure he felt safe and comfortable the whole time I was away. Thor was clearly relaxed and well cared for by the end of the trip. I’d trust her with him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family.
Michelle is absolutely amazing! She gave me such peace of mind and my fur babies could not have been taken better care of. She's very responsive, took the time to get my one sick baby to eat when he was NOT into it, and she sent me frame worthy pictures daily. Michelle, you're a freaking ROCK STAR 😻
Any is amazing!!! She took such great care of our two cats and managed to administer the medicine like a champ to one of them. She was always sending us videos and photos so we could see how well they were doing. Any, thank you again for taking such wonderful care of our cats!
Jaylan is calm, kind and patient. One of my cats loved her and the other (who only loves me😂) seemed to take to her also. She did just as I had requested for the time I was away, which I appreciate- as the biggest part was just spend some time with them so they wouldn’t get lonely or stressed. I would definitely recommend her.

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 Bay Harbor Islands 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 .

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.
