“I had Oscar do a last minute drop in for my pups, and he was fantastic! He followed all instructions perfectly, was right on time, and kept me updated with great communication and lots of pictures (which I really appreciated!). My dogs are super happy, and I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Michelle was amazing with our usually very shy and reserved cats. She was a new sitter to me as my old, much cherished sitter is no longer available. I had literally just moved, my home still mostly in boxes, and had to take a business trip out of town. I did what I could to ensure my cats were situated with all of their comfort items and all of their spaces within the home unpacked and secure before leaving. Michelle came into that situation/chaos and took charge. She was even able to pet one kitty by the end and capture a few photos of my most timid. That says ALOT because frequently, this kitty hides so effectively with sitters they cannot even provide a "proof of life" photo of her. I came home to clean litter boxes and happy, stress free cats. If you need a cat sitter, Michelle is the one. I will definitely be using her again.”

About: Hello everyone, I am Karime I am 26 years old. I have taken care of dogs since my teen years when my family or friends would leave for days whether it be vacation or just to get time off they would leave me there baby’s . I enjoy walking, I can go to dog parks, I would feed, bathe them. I love playing with dogs of any kind it makes me so happy. I’m here to ensure that your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. I can text you every hour with pictures, and updates it’s absolutely no problem! Back home in Miami I used to do a lot of volunteer work at animal shelters I am pretty experienced. We can do meet and greet prior to booking I can show you my home anything to make you all feel welcomed! Communication is very important to me. I had my dog for over 10 years when he passed away I couldn’t bare the thought to get another dog because I can’t take the pain I felt losing him… but my love for dogs never went away I’m still not ready for another dog of my own but I love watching and playing with dogs. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as if they were my own. I’m committed to maintaining their routines and keeping them happy! Army wife and Stay at home mom ; my hours are flexible per care would not be a problem! I am okay with dogs staying over, I can also do drop in visits. I provide a safe, secure environment for all types of pets. My home is their home I want any pets to feel comfortable. Clients home will be respected! Will be treated as if it was my home.
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She had great communication and told me when she was leaving and had arrived each time. She also gave me details of every visit, as well as many pictures. She also was very tentative to my elderly cats needs, including giving him medicine daily. She was very respectful of my house, and asked many questions to make sure that my cat was comfortable and had the best experience while I was gone. It was very evident that she truly cared about his needs, which means a lot to me because he’s like my child. I will definitely be using Stephanie in the future.”
About: My love for animals has been well known since I was a kid. I’m the go-to pet sitter when family and friends are out of town. I am patient, attentive, and always prioritize the well-being of the animal. Currently not working but will soon be a part-time student. Until August 24 I will be available all day everyday. After that I will not be available Mondays or Wednesdays. I am not caring for pets in my home at the moment, care for the pet at the clients home will be discussed with the client.
About: I have a Pitbull named Chance and a Calico cat named Shawty who are my world. I also have experience with exotic animals, such as lion and tiger cubs, lemurs, small primates, etc. I am the designated pet sitter in the friend group! I have a very open and irregular schedule, as I am a full time musician and usually create music late nights. This allows flexibility to be able to care for your babies. Update pictures are very important to me, so I am the same when caring for others pets. If you have home cameras, I feel even more comfortable so you can watch live and first hand as I do my job! I follow instructions to the T when it comes to pet care. If your fur baby has any special ways to prepare their food, any specific route they like to go on walks or whatever they may need, any background music or show that you play for them.. I’m happy to accommodate. For example my Pitbull does not eat if I am out of town, and likes to sleep with ocean wave sounds.. it helps him if whoever is pet sitting him stays for a couple of minutes so he can feel comfortable and eat, and also ask my Google speaker to play ocean waves before leaving. I wouldn’t treat your pets needs any different than I’d expect for someone to treat mine for their health and safety.

Whether in my home or a client’s home, I respect routines and communicate clearly with owners to ensure pets are safe and well cared for.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, and my passion for their health and well-being has led me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. 🐶❤️ I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, from playful puppies who need lots of attention to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and gentle care. My experience in animal rescue has taught me that every dog is different. Some are energetic and playful, while others are shy, nervous, or need time to feel comfortable. I take the time to understand each dog and respect what makes them unique. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because animals have always been a big part of my life. I enjoy being active, spending time with pets, and keeping them on a consistent schedule. I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and the individual needs of each pet. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away, and I’m committed to giving them plenty of attention, love, and care. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I follow feeding schedules, walks, medications when needed, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from their owner. I also give pets plenty of patience, attention, and affection while respecting their individual personality and boundaries. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and cared for while their family is away. 🐾❤️

I highly recommend her! She always takes such wonderful care of my dog and is incredibly professional. My dog has epilepsy, so it means a lot to have someone I can truly trust. She is attentive to his needs, treats him with so much love, and gives me peace of mind every time he stays with her. She’s the best!
I had Oscar do a last minute drop in for my pups, and he was fantastic! He followed all instructions perfectly, was right on time, and kept me updated with great communication and lots of pictures (which I really appreciated!). My dogs are super happy, and I will definitely be booking with him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Florida City is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 2,453 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Florida City. 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.

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.
