“Nicole has been absolutely incredible only after two weeks. My breed of dog takes time to adjust to new friends and family. Nicole has been able to patiently developed a bond to this point which we are confident will grow in time. This deserves mention and to be brought to the attention of others.”

About: Hii! My name is Gabrielle, and I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like family. I have experience caring for kittens, including young babies and cats recovering after surgery. I enjoy walking, playing, feeding, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important your furry friend is to you, and I’ll do my best to make them feel at home while you’re away. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you want your furry friend to feel less lonely and comfortable while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I work during the day and have availability in the afternoons and on weekends. I can make time for walks and visits and will always do my best to work around your pet’s needs and schedule. I always prioritize pets’ safety and comfort. During walks, I keep a close eye on them and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I follow each owner’s instructions and treat every pet with care and attention.

About: I truly love animals, especially the snuggly ones! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny Chihuahuas to Great Danes and Bullies, and I love getting to know what makes each pet unique. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, including hypoallergenic and lower-allergen breeds. My daughter is allergic to cats, so I’m familiar with being thoughtful about allergy-friendly environments and routines. I have experience giving pets medication and following specific feeding and care instructions. I previously made homemade dog food for a Bully using organ meats, vegetables, and grains, so I’m very comfortable with special diets, meal preparation, and pets who need a little extra attention. Birds are close to my heart as well. I’ve cared for parrots and had my own cockatiel for 18 years. He lived to be 21 years old, so I understand the patience, consistency, and specialized care birds require. One important note: I have a severe flea allergy, so pets must be current on appropriate flea prevention before staying with me or receiving care in my home. Most of all, I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and spoiled while their people are away. Whether your pet wants walks and playtime or would rather curl up next to me for snuggles, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m a self-employed single mom to a 13-year-old, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily work pet care into our daily routine. Animals are very therapeutic for both of us, and having them around feels natural and comforting in our home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep the environment calm, clean, and comfortable, and I always take time to let pets adjust at their own pace. Safety is very important to me, so I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, food restrictions, and anything else specific to your pet. I also believe in good communication and will keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for.

About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for family and friends for many years. I love being with animals and will do everything I can to make them comfortable and happy. I’m available for pet boarding daily all weekdays and weekends whenever I’m not at school. I’ll be sure to provide the best care that I can! I have a fenced yard and I live nearby the park so I can exercise and walk your dog however much they need. I also provide care for indoor cats and will keep them safe in my room until they’re confident that they can walk around. I give lots of treats, make sure all of their facilities are clean, and feed them as directed by the owner.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or providing playtime and companionship, I always ensure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide loving and reliable care, giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I have a very flexible schedule and usually too much free time and i would love to fill the gaps in by helping someone with their pet. In my own home I would walk my dogs 3-4 times a day, whether its to actually go or just to go on a little walk. Weekly baths and playing with them everyday are things I enjoy doing. I also have a cat who I care for. I change the littler box, feed her, and play with her.

If you give me permission to take him/her to the dog park, i will be more than glad to do so. I am home all day long, so your pet will never be home unsupervised. I will also make sure to follow his or her feeding instructions and if you have a walking schedule i will also make sure to follow it. I will also be providing you with pictures and messages every day multiple times to update you on your pet.

I also keep doggy cameras to keep an eye on the pups while im away Your pet will free roam around the house at all times as long as they are house trained. I do have dogs of my own so i am unable to accommodate dogs that do not get along with other dogs or with people, as i do live with others in my household.

About: Drawing from years of personal experience nurturing beloved dogs, cats, and even a turtle of my own, I bring a wealth of firsthand knowledge and care to every furry friend I encounter. My commitment to animal welfare extends beyond my own pets, as I volunteer at the Miami-Dade Animal Shelter, where I've honed my skills in handling and socializing with animals. With me, your pets are not just in good hands; they're in caring, experienced hands. I'm currently in college, so I have plenty of time on the weekends and am flexible on weekday afternoons from 4 to 7 p.m. In caring for pets in my client's home, safety is paramount. I ensure a secure environment by attentively monitoring surroundings, eliminating hazards, and adhering to any specific instructions provided. Trust is fundamental in my approach; I prioritize open communication, respect for pets and property, and consistency in care routines. Additionally, I strive to maintain a comfortable and nurturing environment, fostering a sense of familiarity and ease for the pets under my supervision.

About: I have experience with both dogs and cats, from helping in a vet clinic and working at a dog daycare to caring for my own pets over the years. I’m very patient with animals, attentive to their behavior, and I always try to follow each pet’s routine closely because I know that’s what helps them feel calm, safe, and happy while you’re away. I work remotely during the week (8am–5pm), so I’m available for reliable evening visits on weekdays. On weekends, I’m more flexible and available throughout the day. I’m a great fit for pets who are comfortable being alone during typical work hours and do best with a consistent routine. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I follow instructions closely and prioritize clear communication so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. 🪴💚

Valentina provided exceptional care for my cat, Milan, while we were away for eighteen days. From the moment we met, her love for animals was evident. She took the time to understand Milan's routine and preferences, ensuring he felt comfortable and secure in our absence. Throughout our trip, Valentina sent regular updates and photos, which reassured us that Milan was happy and well-cared for. She went above and beyond, engaging him in play. It was clear that Milan had formed a bond with her, as he was relaxed and content upon our return. Her professionalism and attention to detail were impressive. Valentina maintained a clean environment and followed all instructions meticulously, making the entire experience stress-free for both us and Milan. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Valentina, for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hialeah Gardens on Rover is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $41 per visit. 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 6,444 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hialeah Gardens. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hialeah Gardens. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 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.
