About: Hi there! I'm Alexis. What's my favorite thing about dogs you ask? Well, I find delight in how loving they are, how sweet they are, how they love you unconditionally and are the best cuddle buddies. The best part about being a sitter with RoverGO is getting to meet, take care of, and have fun with so many different dogs and/or cats! I'm offering traveling pet care services through Rover that allow for your pet(s) to keep their daily routine and their environment the same while you are away. I can stop by your home for drop-ins or walks, as well as, stay overnight if your pet(s) need company all throughout the day. My schedule is open and as long as I get your request, and we are a good match, I'm confident I will be your go-to pet sitter! I have had 7 dogs throughout my life including my two current pups. I come from a dog loving family. We have been taking care of dogs since I was just a young child. I will take care of your dog like they are my own. House sitting requires a level of trust and responsibility that I know how to emit. I will leave your home just as it was when you left! Send me a request! I'd be honored to meet you and your beloved pet(s). Forging a genuine relationship with you as your next pet sitter is something I pride myself on! Let's meet in person soon.
About: New Clients: All dogs regardless of sex must submit valid rabies certificate/documentation before they will be approved (Miami Dade county law requires all dogs over 4 months to have rabies vaccine), any dog regardless of sex that is not fully UTD (including bordetella) will be automatically declined. All male dogs must also submit documentation proving they are neutered for approval. Unneutered Male dogs will be automatically declined. No Exceptions!!!!! I've had dogs most of my life since I was 8 years old (currently on dogs #3 and #4). I'm a natural with dogs (some say I'm a dog whisperer) and love them so much (I love giving belly rubs). I own two Siberian Husky that are well cared for so they are my references. Services offered: My house: Boarding, Walking, Grooming (Bath, Blow, Dry, and Nail Clipping only, No Haircuts/Shaving or Teeth Cleaning). Takes me about an hour to groom and dry each of my dogs using professional grooming equipment (Grooming is extra). Note: Boarding, Day Care, Walking, Dog Park and Grooming are all seperate services, so each has their own separate charge. If you want Walking, Dog Park, or Grooming Services it must be paid for on top of the Boarding/Day Care rate or service will not be performed. Drop Off / Pickup rate is for the first 10 miles from my house. Each additional mile is an additional $2.00 per mile (rounded up). there's 4 trips involved to pickup and dropoff as it is 2 round trips. For example if your address is 10 miles from me that means I have to drive 40 miles in total to pickup and dropoff your pooch so your total pickup/drop off rate would be $85 ($25 for the first 10 miles + $60 for the remaining 30 miles). Total Distance is determined by the fastest route during rush hour traffic on the day of booking request. Owner is responsible for all tolls for pickup/dropoff aswell which will be added at the time of booking. Your house: Drop In Visits, Walking My property is 6,240 sq.ft so plenty of space for your dog(s) to run around and play. The backyard is Siberian Husky escape proof with concrete all the way around the backyard fence so your dog(s) can't dig or find a way out (unless your dog can jump a 6ft high fence). if your dog is an outdoor dog you can leave him/her in my backyard without any worries of escaping as there are two locked gates in the backyard and I'm the only person who has the key. I specialize in Siberian Husky, if you own Siberian Husky this is the place for your husky with someone who is capable of handling such a special breed. I work full time but my job is very flexible, allows me to work whenever I want and lots of traveling around the city which allows for a quick 15 minute potty break/feeding and go back to work mid-day if I'm near home. Safety is my #1 priority (this is why I require all dogs to submit their valid rabies, UTD, and neutered documentation. When your dog first arrives on the property the first thing I do is introduce your dog to all the dogs on the property to see how your dog responds to each dog. If your dog(s) has problems getting along with other dogs it is my job to find a suitable group for your dog to spend their stay with. In the event your dog cannot find a suitable group then your dog will not interact with the other dogs or groups and will be placed in their own group for the remainder of their stay. During mealtime your dog will be temporarily isolated from the other dogs (in a crate or in a room by themself) until they finish (this is to prevent fights with other dogs over resource guarding and to insure your dog only eats the food they are use to). Once your dog has finished only then will your dog be allowed to return to the group. When I am away from home all dogs are isolated from each other (unless they came from the same household) until I return.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. Our 12 year old Belgian Malinois is the heart of our home, so I know what senior dog care looks like day to day, including slower walks, joint comfort, and keeping routines steady. Because my Malinois is reactive to other dogs, I understand how stressful it is for anxious or reactive pets and their owners, and I know how to keep things calm and controlled. I also have a horse, which has given me real experience with daily care and giving medications. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions for meds and special needs. Pets are already a big part of my daily routine. Between walks, feeding, and caring for our senior Malinois, my day naturally revolves around animals. My work schedule is flexible, so I can be home for much of the day, give regular potty breaks and walks, and keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. I’m happy to follow your feeding, medication, and exercise instructions and send updates so you know how they’re doing. In my home, pets get a calm, structured routine. They’ll have regular walks, meals on your schedule, plenty of cuddle time, and a comfortable spot to rest. I keep a close eye on how they’re eating, drinking, and acting, and I send updates so you know they’re doing well. In your home, I stick to the routine your pet already knows, including their feeding times, walks, and medications. I’ll also bring in the mail, water plants, and leave things tidy so you come home to a normal house and a happy pet. Either way, I follow your instructions closely and I’m always happy to talk through special needs before a stay.
“Sofia was a perfect sitter for my two cats Uma and Nya while we were away visiting family during Memorial Day weekend. She was prompt to show up for feedings, playtime and followed directions to the tee! Would not hesitate to ask her to care for them again! The time of her visit, and pictures gave us peace of mind during our time away!!”
About: I have been boarding dogs in my home since 2007 and have many very happy customers. I have two small dogs of my own. The dogs have access to my fenced back garden at all times. I am retired and spend my time training and competing in agility. My dogs have free access to the living areas of my home and are able to run in and out of the back yard. They are walked at least twice a day. About this sitter: Passionate about dogs. I have completed a pet first aid course with PetTech. Why I love dog sitting: I have been a dog lover all my life. I have had a dog of my own since adopting a rescue in 1980. I now have 2 rescues and enjoy training them in obedience and agility. Meet my pets: I have two small dogs which I train and compete with in agility. About my yard: The backyard is fenced in with a 6 foot wooden fence. It has paths around the vegetation for the dogs to run. There is access to the outside from my back door at all times. I also have a small pond which is fenced and contains several fish. I am retired and home most of the time so I am able to supervise and care for your pet, take him/her for walks and have playtime. I have a fenced back yard which is available for potty breaks. I work outside in the yard most mornings and the dogs like to keep me company while I'm there. The dogs are allowed on the furniture and can sleep anywhere they choose.` I am retired and can take care of your pet at my home 24/7. I have a lot of experience looking after many types of dogs. Your pet has access to the entire house, including the furniture, and back garden. They are fed separately from my dogs. They are also brushed if necessary. I can also trim nails if the dog will allow me to do this.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Coral Gables
Mariya and her partner were excellent. My cat is a little reactive but they did a great job trying to play and get her to warm up! I had one day where I thought she was missing (she was just hiding but was not in her usual place for hours) and they came over earlier and found her for me and moved the camera so I could see her, which eased my anxiety as my cat is a senior.
Pia was absolutely wonderful with my cats! They’re normally very shy and took to her so quickly, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. She sent regular updates and adorable pictures of my babies, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Pia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur babies! 🐾❤️
Rebeca was incredible! She took great care of our cat and sent us pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. She was very attentive to our cat’s needs, proactive, and incredibly helpful. When our flight was unexpectedly canceled, she went to our place for an extra day to make sure our cat was taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. We highly recommend Rebeca and will definitely book her again!
I wish I could give Chrystal 6 stars! She went above and beyond and took care of every possible unexpected situation. Zulu and Lili were both very well cared for, and we can’t thank her enough for the attention, affection, and peace of mind she gave us. Highly recommend Chrystal!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Coral Gables is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $37 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 5,968 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Coral Gables. 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 Coral Gables. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
