“Melissa is great with my GSD. You can tell she’s a professional dog trainer by the way she handles Shae. Shae loves walking with Melissa. Not to mention she’s very efficient and dependable. I plan to continue with Melissa in the future, continuously, as long as she is available.”


About: About Me 🐾 • I’m a 20 year old college student studying veterinary medicine trying to gain experience doing what I love - working with animals 🤍 • I’ve been caring for dogs, cats and lots of other exotic animals for 7+ years and genuinely love spending time with them! What I Provide For Your Pup 🐾 • Regular potty breaks and walks • Drop-in visits for feeding, watering, medication administration, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles (Varies as requested) • Dog walks to give your pup some exercise and fresh air • Feeding based on their usual routine • Fresh water always available • Photos & video updates so you can see how they’re doing • Care based on your dog’s personality and individual needs Good to Know 🐾 • Drop-ins are done in your home • Dog walks are done around your neighborhood • Dogs MUST be friendly and comfortable around new people. (Reactivity with other dogs can be worked around while I’m walking them.) • Please let me know about your dog’s routine, personality/triggers, any medications/allergies, and anything else you’d like to add that will help me take the best care of them! Pricing & Booking 🐾 • Higher maintenance dogs may have a slightly higher rate depending on the specific care. • Located in Homestead, FL. • I’m usually available from 9am-9 pm on weekdays and weekends! (Please note that these times may vary based on holidays, special events, etc!) I will always let you know in advance if I won’t be available on a certain day/time. When your pup is with me, my main goal is to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I’ll follow their normal routine as much as I can, whether that’s their usual feeding time, potty breaks, walks, playtime, or anything else they’re used to at home. I’ll also follow any instructions you leave for me so they can stay on their normal routine. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so I’ll make sure your baby gets plenty of attention, love, and playtime during our visit. I treat every dog I care for like they’re my own and want them to feel safe and comfortable while I’m with them. 🐾❤️ For drop-ins, I can help with things like feeding, potty breaks, refreshing their water, giving them some playtime and attention, and making sure they’re doing okay while you’re away. For walks, I’ll make sure they get a good walk at their own pace and plenty of time to sniff and enjoy themselves. I’ll also send you updates and pictures during each visit so you know how your baby is doing and can see what we’re up to! I’ll always do my best to communicate clearly and make sure your dog gets the care and attention they deserve. ❤️
About: When I was 10 years old, I got my first pet, a 3 month Pomeranian, ever since then, I had many pets throughout, Daisy, Lily, and Penny. They are my world and I would take care of others pets as if they were my own! And now Theodora has joined time and is my first cat 🐈⬛. Since I don't work a regular full-time job, my schedule is flexible and pet care fits easily into my day. I'm available both weekdays and weekends, so I can build in time for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles without feeling rushed. For longer stays, I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention throughout the day, and I'll follow whatever routine you normally have, whether that's specific feeding times, walk schedules, or medication. Como no tengo un trabajo regular de tiempo completo, mi horario es flexible y cuidar mascotas encaja fácilmente en mi día. Estoy disponible tanto entre semana como los fines de semana, así que puedo reservar tiempo para paseos, juegos, comidas y mimos sin prisas. Para estancias más largas, me aseguraré de que su mascota reciba mucha atención durante todo el día, y seguiré la rutina que usted normalmente tenga, ya sean horarios específicos de comida, programas de paseos o medicamentos. I do not currently care for pets in my home, but will care for pets in your home, I will care for them as you wish! Actualmente no cuido mascotas en mi casa, pero cuidaré a las suyas en su hogar. ¡Las cuidaré como usted desee!
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that i actually love the whole job not only the cute parts. Im patient when it comes to puppies who are still learning and are very playful, gentle with older dogs who need a slower pace, and calm when pets are anxious and shy. Im great at following the routine like giving pets meds and sensing when something is “off”. Basically I treat every pet like theyre my own with lots of love and care. Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is very open, which allows me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, and companionship as needed I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. At my home, I have a friendly cat and a fenced yard where pets can run around and play safely with supervision. I stick to their normal feeding and potty schedules, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and make sure they’re always comfortable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely so pets feel relaxed and at home. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and basic care as instructed.
About: I have experience caring for small dogs, but I really love big dogs too. I treat every dog with love, patience, and attention, making sure they feel safe, happy, and at home with me I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. My husband and I live in our own private home, where your pup will be treated like part of the family. We’re available 7 days a week, making it easy to accommodate your boarding needs. We understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so we focus on giving every dog plenty of love, attention, playtime, and personalized care. Our home is clean, secure, and peaceful, making it the perfect place for your dog to feel comfortable while you’re away. We look forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home! I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding their owner provided food, walks once a day, and any special instructions. I make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and at home
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Celina! Your pet’s new favorite human (when you’re away, of course)! 🐶🐱 I’m an animal lover through and through, and I’ve been caring for animals professionally since 2017! I’m also a proud cat mama, so I know firsthand that our pets aren’t just pets; they’re family. ❤️ With 44 FIVE-STAR REVIEWS from wonderful clients, I take pride in providing dependable, loving, and personalized care that gives pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. My experience goes far beyond your typical cats and dogs! Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for all kinds of animals, including: 🐶 Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities 🐱 Cats, including neonatal kittens 🐴 Horses and donkeys 🐔 Chickens and quail 🦎 Sugar gliders and other small or exotic pets 🐾 And plenty of other furry, feathered, and four-legged friends! I’m also experienced in administering medications and have knowledge of pet CPR. What can your pets expect when they’re with me? Lots of love, attention, playtime, belly rubs, tennis balls, mouse toys, and probably a few one-sided conversations (I promise I’m a great listener 😂). I’ll make sure their individual needs are taken care of, whether that means long walks, keeping their feeding routines consistent, administering medications, or simply providing some extra companionship and cuddles. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your babies in someone else’s care, which is why I treat every animal as if they were my own. Your pets will always have my undivided attention during our scheduled visits, and I’ll do my best to make sure you have one less thing to worry about while you’re away! 🏡 SERVING HOMESTEAD, CUTLER BAY & SURROUNDING MIAMI-DADE AREAS! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, with scheduling flexibility depending on your needs and availability. Whether you have a playful puppy, a senior kitty, a flock of chickens, or a whole little farm, I’d love to meet your animal family! Don’t hesitate to send me a message! I’d love to get to know you and your fur babies. 💚 Because happy pets make happy pet parents! 🐾 My daughter is on the spectrum and attends therapies throughout the week leaving a normal 9-5 out of question but this opened me up to the unconventional and animal care has been both a blessing and a calling! I go into every sitting with the mentality of this is my pet/child/responsibility in my time with them and to make it special like I would want for my own!
About: My first vote was when I was 10, and from that moment on I knew I would love her. My neighbors were always asking me to feed their furry friends and take them for walks. They would say, "There goes the girl and her dogs." I have now left my old job as a Medical Assistant because I have always dreamed of getting more involved with furry animals, I think I was born for them and I feel I have a deep connection with them. I have a large, spacious, fenced and secure yard. I also have three adorable dogs that will keep your furry friend company at all times.

About: I’ve had pets all my life and have been entrusted of others pets when they go on vacation. I am responsible, diligent and considerate. I can take care of humans of all like stages and I can do the same for pets. Full time nurse but I work night shift. I work 3 days a weeks from 7pm to 7:30am and spend most of the time at home. I’m not usually gone all day or go out of town often but someone is always home when I’m at work so they won’t be lonely I have a fenced yard and clean my home up to twice a day. I have my own cats and dogs that are friendly. I can crate your fur baby if you request
About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs since I was 16 years old and I honestly love it. It brings me joy and happiness taking care of somebody's furry companion when they can't. I have experience feeding them and giving them a bath as well. I'm currently studying virtually and I am home almost all of the time, so I can take care of your furry baby properly and him the attention that he or her deserves. I live in an apartment with a fence around it, which will keep your furry baby safe. I also have a very friendly dog of my own that will keep him or her company.
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: Hi there, pet parent! I’m just a girl with a heart of gold who's passionate about giving golden service and is Goldendoodle approved. Seriously, ask my Goldendoodle haha. I love to say that I know dogs from the inside out because I have my own fur baby (Winnie) and we have been through such a beautiful journey together. I’ve had her since she was 8 weeks old and now that she’s 3, I’ve been through every stage with her: the sleepless puppy nights, the chewing phase, the training, and the settled, sweet adult years (well, as settled as they can be with a breed as energetic as hers). That hands-on experience is what I bring to your fur baby each and every time. I’m truly comfortable with every stage of life. For puppies, I focus on gentle training basics like potty routines, crate comfort, leash manners, and positive reinforcement, so they build good habits while they’re with me. For senior dogs, I go slow, keep a calm environment, and pay close attention to comfort, mobility, medication schedules, and special routines. In addition, I spent 5 years working for the company Chewy in their veterinary diet department so I learned my fair share about dogs and how to care for them from one of the best pet companies there is. Now these days, I am following my dreams as a full-time content creator and filmmaker, so my schedule is flexible so your dog gets real attention instead of being squeezed between other commitments. I’m also great at updates. Expect regular photos and cute videos, so you can see your pup having the time of their life while you’re away. There is much more I can say but I will end with this: as a dog owner myself, I truly and wholeheartedly love dogs, even more than humans sometimes (don't tell my friends and family). So with me, there will be no worry of leaving your fur baby with someone who knows nothing about them or does not care about animals. I treat every dog how I would want someone to treat my precious Winnie. So you can rest assured knowing that your dog will be safe, loved, and well cared for with me. I am currently a full time content creator, indie filmmaker, and freelancer, meaning that I make my own schedule and it looks different from week to week. Because I am not currently working a traditional 9-5, I have more flexibility and am able to make pet care (something I am truly passionate about and enjoy) a priority. Because I don’t currently live alone and have toddler-aged relatives in my home, I provide care in my clients’ homes. This is actually a win for your pet. Dogs stay in their own familiar space, stick to their normal routine, and avoid the stress of a new environment. During each visit or stay, I follow your pet’s schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and playtime. I’ll also give plenty of cuddles and attention, keep their space clean and calm, and send regular photo and video updates so you can see how they’re doing. Your home stays safe and secure too, with the mail brought in, plants watered, and lights adjusted on request.
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. I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician, and I graduated from my high school’s veterinary program as a Certified Veterinary Assistant (CVA). Through four years of hands-on training, I’ve gained experience handling dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable recognizing signs that a pet may not be feeling well, following care instructions carefully, and providing patient, compassionate care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break before officially starting college! So I would like to use my spare time usefully. I have lots of spare time to cater to your needs Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care they need so I can provide consistent, individualized care. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog on a walk, or caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and loved.

About: I’ve had the opportunity to care for and build strong relationships with a variety of cats and birds over the years. When friends or family have needed to travel, I’ve also cared for their dogs, typically for trips of up to two days. These experiences have helped me understand the different needs and personalities of each pet, while reinforcing the importance of patience, consistency, and providing attentive, reliable care. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible and provide regular updates for your peace of mind. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality, and I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their normal schedule. I treat every home with respect and every pet with patience, kindness, and close attention. I’ll follow any feeding, medication, or care instructions you provide, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is safe and doing well.
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for most of my life. In high school, I was part of the Veterinary Science Magnet Program at Felix Varela, where I earned my CVA certification and studied veterinary science and animal care. I also spent around three years training dogs through the program. During my senior year, I completed an internship at a veterinary clinic, where I got about two years of hands-on experience working as a vet tech. I fostered throughout high school and for a while after, which gave me experience caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I have experience with pets of all different sizes and ages and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, basic training, and of course giving them plenty of attention and love. Having pets of my own, I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of them. I currently work part-time and am also in school, but I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other care depending on what you and your pet need. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions provided by their owner. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, leash safety, doors and gates, and any behavioral or medical concerns. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, and I make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

We absolutely love Marbely! ❤️ We’ve booked her many times to walk our sweet Pepe, and every experience has been wonderful. She and her husband are both incredibly kind, friendly, and caring. They’re always reliable, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing Pepe is in such good hands during his walks. We’re so happy we found them and truly appreciate the love and attention they give him. Highly recommend! 🐾🤍

I cannot say enough good things about Melissa! She pulled up and immediately connected with my dogs and started working with them. You can tell within minutes that she genuinely loves what she does and is damn good at it. I thought I was just finding someone I could trust to come walk my dogs while I’m at work, she’s SO much more than that. I already feel completely comfortable leaving my babies in her care, I feel blessed that I found her. ☺️

Very grateful, I’d highly recommend. I’ve been recovering from surgery and one of the things I can’t do is walk my dog. I was so worried because she’s a 70 pound lab who tends to pull on her walks. I was so stressed out, couldn’t ask family to help, and had reached out to a couple of Rover’s who were unable to help. Cara was very transparent from the beginning and has been such a great help. Layla is very friendly but you can tell when she’s not comfortable with someone and that is definitely not the case with Cara. Layla always waits the door around the time she knows she comes by and she always comes back very excited from her walk. Thank you again

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Homestead is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $34 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 2,843 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Homestead. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Homestead. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Homestead after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Homestead. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
