About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, hedgehogs, and plants. I am patient, attentive, reliable, and committed to following each pet’s unique routine and care instructions. I work from home and set my own hours, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care, attention, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and keep pets comfortable in their familiar routine. I respect the client’s home, keep food and litter areas clean, secure doors and windows, and provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“Denys took amazing care of our dog Rocky while we were away. He was reliable, caring, and kept us at ease knowing Rocky was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. Highly recommend!”
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 had a fantastic experience with Macenna. She took such warm, attentive care of my dog—it was clear from the start that my pup felt comfortable and happy. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, my home was left spotless and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Michelle was an excellent sitter — 10/10! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, regularly sending updates and adorable photos of our dog, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was patient and attentive to our dog’s unique needs, giving him both the space and affection he required to feel comfortable. On top of that, she took great care of our home — everything was exactly as we left it. We feel so lucky to have found her and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Leo helped me out when I was in a jam. He agreed to take care of my dog and cat on very short notice and did a great job with them, keeping me informed multiple times per day. Highly recommend.”
“First time ever leaving my dog alone and I’m so happy with how this all turned out and she is an amazing dot sitter. Would definitely use her again if I left my dog alone.”
About: Hello.My name pronouncedNe-Ka. I am a lifelong-animal lover. I've had dogs my entire life, and they have always been an important part of my life. I recently lost my 16-year-old Chihuahua, and while my heart is still healing, I realized how much joy being around animals brings me. That's what inspired me to join Rover. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. In fact, my love for animals runs so deep that I've been a vegetarian for nearly 20 years. I understand that pets are family, and I will care for your furry friends with the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own. I am very flexible to meet the needs of your pet and make them my top priority while in my care. I allow pets to have whatever you permit them to have-treats, cuddles in the couch we’re just playtime at the park. With plenty of pictures and videos for you. I also have experience with cat sitting. I’m just a woman who loves animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, companionship while you're away, or extra love and attention, I'd be honored to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I prefer not to have any in home boarding at my home but in willing to come to yours. If you don’t see a calendar date just reach out to me. Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. I mostly work from home so I am flexible to meet the needs of both the pet parent and the pet. Drop in visit times are flexible in the Sunny Isles, Aventura and North Miami areas. I care for pets per the instructions set by the owner. I am very attentive and make your pet my priority, treating them like my own.

About: I have a genuine, deep love for all pets in this world… mine have been the most important part of my life. When my baby kitty Lenny crossed the heavenly rainbow bridge last year, Gideon and Einstein rescued me. My focus is specific and consistent: “What does your best friend need? How can I provide this need to them? Is the environment low stress? Your fur babies are so important to me because I truly understand how important they are to YOU. Having no human children myself, believe me, fur babies are EVERYTHING! I put my absolute best effort into making sure your pet feels safe and experiences the least amount of anxiety as possible. I also assist with Senior day care cleaning, shopping etc. References upon request if needed. I am available to work five days a week and weekends if necessary. I’m grateful to have a flexible schedule; I’ve earned the trust to have access into peoples’ homes to care for their animals. I treat every single animal and pet as if they were my own. I make sure to have every day fulfilled with at least a little bit of furry affection or my day just isn’t the same! I have a pet-friendly, pet-safe, pet-happy home! Making sure all the fur babies in my home have what they need is “what I DO!” My sweet cat Gideon couldn’t get more nurturing! He’s very healthy, independent and gentle with his guests”! My philosophy with my home and my animals is: When in MY care, your baby’s safety, good health, and comfort is guaranteed in the anxiety-free environment I provide. I’m extremely attentive to their individual needs, hands-on, and I work hard at that. Their are no short-cuts, no days off with my animals.

About: I have been around dogs and cats all my life. From small breeds to large breeds of dogs and a multitude of different cats. My aunt and cousin have over 7 cats and dogs each, all of which have different attitudes and personalities that I had to learn to cater to. I am a very caring and nurturing individual and I genuinely believe animals can sense that about me. I look forward to meeting your pet and giving them the care they deserve. I recently got let go by my job and am actively looking for work, so I am flexible with hours of care for your pet. If your pet is placed with me, I have enough room in my bedroom for them to play around in. My place is small hence why I would prefer medium to small breeds just so they have adequate space. I love big dogs as well. In the clients home I will respect their boundaries and rules of the house while still providing exceptional care.
“My father passed away unexpectedly and I had to leave for New York within minutes. My biggest concern was my two dogs. I reached out to Anna and she came immediately without hesitation. From that moment on, I was completely worry-free. She sent consistent updates, photos, and videos, and my dogs were clearly happy and well cared for the entire week. She stayed with them full-time and kept me calm during a very difficult time. When I returned home, my house was spotless and beautifully organized. She truly went above and beyond. She is the best dog sitter I’ve used in 9 years — 100% trustworthy and reliable. I will absolutely be using her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Golden Glades
Frederick stayed at our house to watch my senior Doberman over the Fourth of July weekend. My dog has mobility issues, anxiety, needs frequent potty breaks, and requires a lot of hands-on care. The love, patience, and affection Frederick showed him went far beyond our expectations and anything we've experienced with previous pet sitters. Frederick was always quick to respond, very respectful, and followed all of our instructions carefully, including giving multiple medications. He also took great care of our home and left everything clean and tidy. I honestly can't recommend Frederick enough. Knowing my dog was so well cared for gave us so much peace of mind, and I wouldn't hesitate to have him stay with him again.
I cannot recommend Alyiah highly enough—she is absolutely amazing! She has been caring for my two dogs for years, and the love she has for them is truly special. She treats my pups like her own—honestly, like they’re her children—and it shows in every single thing she does. What really sets Alyiah apart is how incredible she is when one of my dogs isn’t feeling well. She goes above and beyond, making sure they’re comfortable, giving medications carefully and reliably, and providing so much extra attention and care. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing they’re in her hands. Her updates and photos are thoughtful and reassuring, and you can just feel how much she genuinely cares. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional, Alyiah is the BEST. Five stars isn’t enough ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had a fantastic experience with Macenna. She took such warm, attentive care of my dog—it was clear from the start that my pup felt comfortable and happy. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, my home was left spotless and well cared for. Highly recommend!
Fiona was amazing with our fur babies. We went on an extended trip for our wedding and honeymoon. Fiona sent us video and picture updates that made us feel as ease during our travels. My bulldog even got himself a girlfriend, played so well with Luna. Fiona went above and beyond I would definitely love for her to watch our babies again.
Amber did an amazing job taking care of our boys for our 2 weeks trip, first time we use a sitter for that long of a period but we didn’t have any concerns while we were overseas, she was very responsive even with a crazy 13 hours time zone difference. Will definitely keep booking Amber for our upcoming trips if she’s available.
Joalys was wonderful and communicated really well during the entire stay. This was my first time using the service to house sit and thankfully it worked out to be a great experience thanks to her. I highly recommend her services as she communicates really well and is great with animals.

FAQs for House Sitting - Golden Glades
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Golden Glades on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,282 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Golden Glades. 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 Golden Glades 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 Golden Glades 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 Golden Glades 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 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.

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.
