About: I've been living with animals all my life. I've taken care of several different breeds of dogs and cats. I've even worked with local zoos and sanctuaries. I also assist in managing a local cat colony and do other things in the community to help out the animals. I couldn't see my life without animals. I will surely treat your fur baby with love and care just as if they are my own. Right now I am working from home part time and I have a flexible schedule, set schedules welcome, I'm up for morning walks, over night caring and weekends for your cat or dog. I prefer to care for your pet at your house. I can possibly accommodate one or two cats at my house. I live with three dogs and 5 cats and if you are ok with them being roommates for a day or so, we can definitely discuss that option. I am open to discuss any arrangements that will work for you and your family.

About: Hey, I get it! leaving your dog with someone else can feel scary. As a dog owner myself, for my whole life, I would be picky too. Dogs are family, and you deserve to feel sure that your pup is safe, loved, and cared for. My dogs get love and attention every day, and I would treat your dog like one of my own. I pay attention to body language, energy, and behavior because I believe a happy dog is a calm and comfortable dog. Whether your pup loves to play, needs space, or just wants a calm presence nearby, I’ll respect their personality and routine. My goal is to make them feel safe, relaxed, and part of my family while they’re with me. I am currently studying to become a teacher and looking for part-time opportunities in education, so I have a very flexible schedule right now. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets, go on walks, play with them, and give them attention throughout the day. I am generally available during the week and on weekends, and I can adjust depending on your pet’s routine and needs. I know how important consistency is for dogs, so I always try to follow their usual schedule for walks, meals, potty breaks, and rest time as closely as possible. I live in a spacious home with a fenced yard, where dogs have room to move, relax, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. I have four dogs of my own: two Golden Retrievers, one mixed-breed dog, and one Pekingese. They are loving, friendly, and not aggressive. Like many dogs, they may feel a little curious or anxious at first when meeting a new dog, so I always believe in slow introductions, patience, and supervision. Our daily routine includes opening the yard in the morning for potty time, short walks around the neighborhood, playtime, fresh water, meals, and lots of love. My dogs are used to regular walks, sometimes up to an hour, so I am comfortable caring for active dogs as well. I always focus on safety, calm energy, and making every pet feel respected and cared for.
“Amazing sitter! She’s an astounding person who’s very selfless when it comes to your animals and pet sitting! Even when the weather was out of everyone’s control she went above and beyond to take care of my kitties! Having someone who has a vet technician background always helps put your mind at ease. She’s very responsive and takes photos of your animals! 5/5 would easily recommend to anyone!”

About: My name is Johnie and I would like to be your dog sitter/Walker.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Homestead stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Homestead 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
