“Luis was very easy to work with. He came to visit our dog beforehand. Teddy got lots of walks and lots of love. We came back to a happy dog and a clean house. Cannot recommend enough!!! Thank you!”
“She was so lovely and understanding, she really took the time to make my dog love her and took such good care of him. I ended up being stuck in another state and she continued to watch him for me past the already scheduled time. I would recommend her to anyone, I feel confident leaving my puppy with her.”

She made sure donut was occupied, played with and kept him happy! She was also energetic and outgoing just like our doggo so it matched very well.

I always ensure pets have fresh water, a secure environment, and constant supervision. In a client's home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions exactly as provided to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I send regular updates with photos and videos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for
About: I’ve been taking care of my pets since I was 7. I grew up with 4 dogs and pet sat cats, dogs, and even lizards for neighbors and friends! I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds! I previously worked for another pet walking company in Virginia before I moved here to Miami! I currently work full time and I am looking to pet sit, and dog walk on evenings or on weekdays and during the weekends. I can stop by morning and evenings mostly for feedings and potty breaks. A couple days a week I can stop by during the day but typically Mondays and Tuesdays are my busiest days I always take care of a clients home and try to leave it better than I found it! I can also help bring in mail/packages, water plants, and take out trash for those long get aways!
About: Hi, My name is Michael M. I just moved backed home to Miami. Since my first memories we have always owned dogs. My mom had a habit of picking up stray dogs. Her heart always broke when she saw a furry defenseless dog begging for food or needing shelter. My mom's big heart exposed me to many types of dogs all different sizes and temperament. I have been dog sitting for a while now and it's one of my favorite things to do. I am a realtor and I am able to work from home during the day while clients are working and when I am away it's for only a few hours at a time. I have a fenced yard. Like I said my dog loves social interaction with other friendly doggies and would love to find friends he could play with. I am a real estate agent with my office at home. I will be able to watch over them while they play.
“I have to admit I was super nervous leaving my boys for 2 weeks, especially with my cat having congestive heart failure but Ruth was wonderful and followed instructions, came back to our home and the boys looking great. Thank you Ruth, I will be rebooking you again.”

I do not work so i am available all the time and in short notice. Feel free to contact me for all your dog needs I live in a gated community in an apartment.

“Christina was so kind and helpful with my boys. My little Milo had a flare up with his allergies and she was up to the job to administer multiple medications. She was responsive and cared about my boys as if they were her own. My shy Theo really warmed up to her which is rare. I had such a great time on my trip knowing my little guys were taken care of.”
“Madison was wonderful. I came last minute to go to the UM game. My little guy gets super anxious. She was available super last minute. She was professional and Banks was immediately calm with her before I left. Id recommend booking with her.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and was always the one in my family caring for them. I currently have two sweet boys of my own, both 8 years old. Growing up, I dreamed of becoming a veterinarian; a reflection of just how much I’ve always cared for animals, but life had other plans and I proudly joined the service, where I’ve been serving for 13 years. Being in a new city away from family can get lonely, and I can’t think of a better way to feel at home than spending time with furry companions. I’d love the opportunity to provide your pets with the same care, love, and attention I give my own. Weekends work best for me when it comes to pet care since I work throughout the week. That said, I can still accommodate weekday care for emergencies or last-minute needs. I’ll just need to adjust my schedule. I try to stay as flexible as possible so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m very attentive to my dogs and I take the same approach with every pet I care for. I know each animal has their own unique habits and personality, so please let me know anything special about your pet. I’ll make sure to keep their routine consistent. My dogs are small, so I take them on multiple short walks throughout the day to keep them happy and exercised. At home, they stay in a gated area in my bedroom while I’m at work, and at night they sleep with me. If you’d prefer your pet to sleep freely, I’m happy to allow that, but if your pet is crate-trained and you’d like me to maintain that routine, I completely understand. My goal is always to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and cared for the same way you would.
About: I can take care of dogs of all sizes and breeds and know strategies to ease anxiety and behavioral tactics to deal with all types of dogs. I am researched and experienced with foods and treats that are beneficial or dangerous to your dog. I am extremely loving and obsessed with dogs. I am detail oriented, thorough and organized. I work a part time as a teacher on Fridays and Saturdays. I attend the University of Miami. If scheduled ahead of time a can plan an overnight stay in your home to look over your fur babies! Excited to work with you and your dogs! Dog Walking- I know signs of overheating according to dog body language and how to help them if they do overheat. I know how to approach a situation in which other dogs attacks or approaches client’s dog. Dog sitting/play date or potty break- I give all attention to dog and enjoy time with them, observing body language or physical sign of ailment, sickness, or harm.
“I can’t say enough good things about Sofia, which is why I’m here, writing this review. Usually, my parents watch Mr. Papagiorgio, one of my close friends, or he has gone to Pet Camp. This was his first time staying with a sitter while I was away, and Sofia made it a dream. From first meeting Papa to spending time with him pre-vacay, she made Papa, and I feel at ease. She sent multiple pupdates and videos and stayed in touch regularly. It was clear Mr. P was a huge fan of Sofia once I returned home. I’m glad to know I have a fantastic human to watch Papagiorgio next time I need to go out of town. Also, Sofia was an amazing house guest, and my apartment was clean and tidy upon returning home as I left it—that means a lot. Thanks for everything, Sofia! -Papa G and Tyler”

I couldn’t have asked for better care for our dogs! They took such great care of both of them and treated them with so much love and attention. They made sure they were fed right on schedule, took them out regularly, and kept me updated throughout their stay. I especially loved receiving so many pictures - it gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I was right there with them. 🥹🐶❤️
I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Katara! He stayed at my place and made everything so easy and stress-free. From the start, he was kind, professional, and incredibly attentive. When I came home Katara looked happy and relaxed and like she had a great weekend of fun! I would recommend him 100%!
She was super accommodating with picking the cats up and dropping them off due to my scheduling needs! Definitely recommend more touch points and pics throughout stay next time :) but overall good! My cats can be loud at night sometimes when taken out of their environment so they were troopers with that and working on way to try to fix that! Thanks! :)
Joyce is simply amazing and goes above and beyond with every visit! She is a Trusted member of the pack, the furry kids love her, and I trust her completely. She’s very intentional, great with communication and cares so much about her clients. Highly recommend Joyce for all that she does.!
She was so lovely and understanding, she really took the time to make my dog love her and took such good care of him. I ended up being stuck in another state and she continued to watch him for me past the already scheduled time. I would recommend her to anyone, I feel confident leaving my puppy with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Doral is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $78 per night. 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 November 2026, there are 3,747 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Doral. 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 Doral 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 Doral 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 Doral 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Doral. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
