About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for animals. Throughout my pet-sitting journey, I’ve had the pleasure of caring not only for furry four-legged friends, but also barn animals, reptiles, rodents, and aquatic pets. I am a reliable, communicative, loving, and attentive sitter who provides not just the experience your pet needs, but also the love, care, and peace of mind every pet parent deserves. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care and flexible scheduling. I intentionally limit the number of bookings I accept to ensure each pet receives my full attention, so early reservations are recommended. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided. I maintain a clean, secure environment and closely monitor behavior to ensure comfort and well-being. I provide regular updates with photos and detailed communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.
“What can we say except what a gem we found on Rover so our Sammy Sam felt comfortable and enjoyed his stay with Mia. She was excellent and sent images on a timely manner to include how often she took Sam for a walk. Will definitely keep her in mind next time we visit Miami”
About: I’m a very loving and attentive person who truly cares for animals as if they were my own. I understand that your pets are part of your family, and I treat them with the same kindness, patience, and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making your furry friend feel safe, happy, and loved My schedule is very very flexible for pet care because I am a ballet teacher and only work a couple of hours in the afternoon I am very very careful and detail-oriented, always keeping everything clean and organized. Your pet will enjoy a safe, hygienic, and loving environment with me.
“Alana was wonderful with our baby Kaya. She sent photos, updates and was quick to answer any questions we had. She was able to give our dog her medicine, and took her for her regular walks. We came home to a spotless home, and a happy dog. We look forward to having Alana come back soon, without hesitation. Thank you Alana!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of experience dog walking and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and families in my community. I’ve also had two Boston Terriers of my own, so I know firsthand how much pets become part of the family. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities and am comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m reliable, responsible, active, and attentive, and I’m always happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions. My goal is to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention while they’re in my care. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet! I’m currently in medical school, so my rotation schedule can vary from week to week, but I’m often free throughout the week. I’m especially available in the evenings and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule whenever I can! I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and playtime. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship while keeping the home clean and secure. With 12+ years of pet-sitting experience and two Boston Terriers of my own, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual personality and needs.
About: Hi, I’m Mari! Animals have been part of my family my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had three Dalmatians, a Dachshund–Chihuahua mix, and a Pomeranian, so I know how different every dog’s personality can be! I’m currently a proud dog mom to Eve, my sweet Dalmatian. 🤎 I have volunteer experience with the Humane Society of Greater Miami and have rescued both cats and dogs. I’ve also boarded dogs in my home and provided house sitting in their own homes. These experiences have taught me to be patient, pay attention to each pet’s needs, and give them time to feel comfortable with me. Now, I’m building my own pet sitting business, Mari and Eve Pet Care, around something I truly love. Whether your pet enjoys playing, going on walks, or simply having someone nearby, I want them to feel loved and cared for while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I know how much it means to find someone you feel comfortable trusting with your baby! 💕 During their stay or visit: I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, favorite activities, and little quirks. Care can include walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and quiet time, depending on their needs and the service booked. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can see how your baby is doing! 📸🐾 For house sitting, I’ll follow your care instructions and respect your home while keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar surroundings. What I’d love to know about your pet: Tell me a little about your baby! What do they love, what makes them nervous, and what helps them feel comfortable? Please share their feeding and potty schedule, sleeping habits, allergies, medical needs, and any behaviors I should know about. For care in my home, I’d also like to know how they feel around other dogs, since I have Eve. Let me know if this is their first time staying with a sitter so we can talk through what would help them settle in. For boarding, please bring their usual food and any familiar items, like a favorite toy, bed, or blanket. I’d love to arrange a meet and greet so we can get to know each other before their stay! 💕 Open availability Mon-Sun. I will walk, feed, play and bathe your pet as needed. And love them and take care of them like I do with my dog, Eve. ☺️ I will make sure with the owners to meet their pets’ dietary needs and buy them the necessary food to meet those needs. If they are a dog, I will walk them according to their walking needs. I will also have new toys for them to play with. If they are a cat, I will have carpet pieces for them to climb and toys as well. If the pet needs a bath or to be taken to a vet/training/playdate appointment I can do that as well. ☺️

“I can’t say great enough things about Arienna. My dog absolutely loved her and she sent me tons of pictures while I was away. I would trust her any day with my pet and will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”

“Suyana was a Godsend when my mom was still in the hospital and we didn't know if she'd be discharged or not. She was willing to help out at the last minute, and did a great job with our wonderful English Setter who loves having company. She was very punctual, responsible, and great at communicating with us.”
“Monica is wonderful! She is very mature, responsible, and conscientious. She did an amazing job taking care of my three dogs, who can be a handful. She has a flexible schedule, sent pictures every day, and left the house nice and neat. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Ahliah was a life saver--we were able to book her last minute, she came over to meet us and our kitten, and then made us feel so comfortable and reassured that she was there watching our kitten, feeding her, and playing with her. Will definitely work with Ahliah again!”
“Alexis was fantastic with our fur baby! She provided regular updates and photos which put us at ease while we were gone. When we returned home, everything was just like we left it. We've already booked her for our next trip. Thanks Alexis!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. I have petsitted a few times in Nicaragua, but the service was never as popular. I currently have a ten year old cocker spaniel named Leia, who you can see in my picture. I’m a proud dog friend and an aspiring cat friend as I haven’t had much experience with cats. However, I love animals (as long as they are not insects). I am one to pay close attention to pet body language, and I will make sure to provide the most comfort and love to your furbaby 💕 I’m currently working part-time so I will be super happy to fit any pet care into my schedule. I’m very punctual will petsit for you on friday and weekends, when you usually want to go out and enjoy human time ✨ I’m happy to provide any tools and help you acquire items for your pet. If you need me to pet-shop too, I will! I also have a car of my own, so there is no end to dog parks we can visit. I will go and stay at your home as much as you need in order to care for your pet. Everybody at home adores pets.
About: I have been around pets for the entirety of my life. I have always been reliable and trusted when it comes to taking care of animals due to my sheer love and passion for them. I rescue animals often and find them forever homes. Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than animals being safe and happy! I am a part time employee and student, which means there is plenty of time in my schedule to give all of my love! I will pretty much always be available for whatever is needed. I am very flexible! I have a gated property and a very safe neighborhood for walks! I have a big back yard for throwing balls and fetching toys. I always have treats and love to give!

Liz is absolutely wonderful! Reliable, kind and truly loving to your fur babies. She sends photos and updates and you will feel truly at ease with her watching your littles at home. I highly recommend booking Liz and will seek her again for our next pet sitting.
I would recommend Maddie to anyone looking for someone who gives their pet lots of attention when you leave them with her. She gave me lots of updates and had great communication. My pup is also a special needs dog and she did really great with tending to his emotional and physical needs. He needs a lot of patience to trust and when I returned to pick him up he was very comfortable with her ❤️❤️❤️
Amanda was amazing once again. She accepted a last-minute weekend request and took such great care of our two dogs. She kept us updated with photos and messages, and since this was her second time staying with them, they were clearly excited to see her again. What made this stay extra special was the personal touch—she left us a handwritten note and even an embroidered patch featuring both dogs. It was such a thoughtful surprise. We truly feel at ease knowing Amanda is with them, and we can’t wait to have her back again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Kendall is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $52 and $79 per night. On Rover, 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.

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 Kendall 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 Kendall 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 Kendall 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kendall. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
