Laysus was a great sitter for my cat Ophelia! She made sure to give her lots of play time and love while we were out of town. I would hire her again!

About: Hi! My name is Jozy, most of my days are spent working from home with my sidekick, a mid-mannered animal loving 8 year old German Shepherd. I’d be thrilled to care for your family companion members while you’re away or just need a break. I offer boarding, house-sitting, drop ins and pick/drop off services so all you’ll have to concern yourself with is if you packed all the right bags! I have experience with pets of various species/ages and can assure you I’ll care for your two, four or eight legged companion(s) like my own. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Thank you for reading! Cheers. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide attentive full-time care and companionship throughout the day. Your pet will have plenty of supervision, playtime, potty breaks and affection ensuring they always feel safe and comfortable. I provide a safe, clean and loving environment where every pet is treated like family. I carefully follow each pet’s routine including feeding schedules, exercise, medications if needed and any special instructions. All while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, playtime and affection. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, secure and happy while giving owners peace of mind that their companion is in caring hands, wether that be in house or out.

About: With a deep passion I have dedicated myself to caring for dogs in various capacities. My experience includes volunteering at local shelters where I provided companionship, exercise, and basic care to dogs in need. I have also honed my skills in managing diverse breeds by taking them on dog dates, ensuring they receive the socialization and mental stimulation they require. Additionally, I have fostered dogs through the app rover program, providing a loving temporary home until they find their forever families. My commitment to their well-being extends beyond basic needs, focusing on creating a nurturing environment that promotes their physical and emotional health. I am currently studying to take my state board exams as an esthetician. I’m just trying to have some money to afford my state board exams. I have a dog name snowball, i’ve had him since I was 7. I have been raised with dogs my whole life. They make me happy and truly grateful. How I care for others & my own dog is with love, care and respect. I will always respect their home and the clients home, by never leaving it a mess if one is made.

About: I’ve cared for dogs at every life stage, from administering medication to my senior pup to helping young puppies learn their very first commands. I’ve also raised my Husky since he was just 4 months old, and now at 5 years old he’s given me years of hands‑on experience with high‑energy breeds, structure, and positive reinforcement. While I’m not officially certified, I’ve learned a great deal from working alongside professional trainers and applying those techniques consistently in my daily routine. I'm currently going to school full-Time, I would always make time to take care and spend time with your pups or if you have an older companion! I'm available on some weekdays. Weekends I can do. I’m currently not going to be providing boarding due to space and have a big dog. But I can do drop in visits offering playtime, long walks, and cuddles during my visits.

Donovan was an amazing sitter for my cat , May. I was gone for 2 weeks, but I knew she was in good hands. Donovan was very communicative on her moods and eating habits . I received pictures everyday , which eased my mom guilt. Very kind and understanding. I’d recommend Donovan as a sitter to anyone and will be using him again

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. I have been looking for ways to make a couple of additional dollars aside from my weekly paycheck and I figured what better way then doing something I love to do, Being around and or taking care of animals. I would love to have a pet of my own but being that funds are tight and I'm at work 8 hours a day I figured Rover is the best of both worlds. I get to spend time with lots of different dogs I otherwise wouldn't have been able to have or be around and I get paid for doing so.. so if you're looking for someone who loves animals and will take care of you your pet as his own I'm only a call or text away. I look forward to your requests Thanks in advance and have a wonderful day

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and making them feel safe and comfortable. I’m very patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience caring for puppies, older dogs, and pets that need extra attention or medication. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they get lots of love, playtime, and care while their owners are away. I’m currently unemployed so, I’m free anytime Monday-Friday. I can also do the weekends from 8am-1pm or 2pm-7pm. I’m open to any more flexible hours! I make sure pets are always in a safe, clean, and stress-free environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions from owners. I’m very careful during walks and outdoor time, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and secure in both my home and the client’s home.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Homestead

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Homestead on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,596 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Homestead. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

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.

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.

To find sitters in Homestead with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
