About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.
About: My fiancé and I are animal lovers through and through! We have 4 babies of our own. One of which is a service animal! Tahmi is a disabled veteran with years of animal experience from animal control. Marisa has years of experience volunteering and training. We are warm, kind hearted and compassionate people who would love your dogs as our own. We love to be outside every chance we get; meaning we can offer your pup(s) the exercise and play he/she needs! We’re homebody’s too and don’t mind staying in and giving your pup all the cuddles! We offer a variety of services at an affordable price! Please reach out with any questions or concerns regarding our services! I hope we can be of service to you and your fur babies! With 3 pups of our own, pet care is embedded into our day to day lives! Our dogs are a high priority and we treat them as such! Which would leave us no problem to do the same for any client of ours and their pups! It’s their (dogs) world, we just live in it! :) We make sure to stay on track with feeding schedules and potty breaks. Exercise is a must-do while your pet is in our care! Safety and comfort are our number one priority and we do everything we can to make sure your pup experiences both during they stay!
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience providing care for older dogs with specific medical needs, and experience training puppies. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend undivided quality time with your pets. I have found this helps to reduce the separation anxiety that exists when an owner is absent. It’s important that your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible in your absence. To me, getting to know your pet’s schedule, habits, favorite and least favorite things, allergies or medical conditions, mannerisms, reactivities, etc. can help them feel cared for while you’re away.
“Sarah took great care of my dog and gave her exercise every day. I liked receiving photos while I was away to see my dog looked happy. I was able to enjoy being away knowing my house and dog were in good hands. I'll definitely re-book with Sarah in the future.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for pets with all different personalities, ages, and needs. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, and once I was old enough, I rescued, raised, and trained two puppies of my own from just 8 weeks old. That experience taught me the patience, consistency, attention, and responsibility that go into giving an animal the care they truly need.I’ve also had the privilege of caring for my parents’ senior Great Dane, who weighed approximately 130 pounds and was diagnosed with cancer. As he reached the later stages of his life and became unable to walk on his own, I helped provide the extra patience, attention, and hands-on care he needed to remain comfortable and feel loved. That experience taught me that caring for an animal isn’t always about the easy or playful moments—it’s about being there for them through every stage of life and making sure they always feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m not a “one-size-fits-all” sitter. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes each pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Whether they need plenty of exercise and playtime, a consistent routine, extra patience and attention, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m prepared to give them the care they need. I work from home Monday through Friday until 4:30 PM, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care before and after my workday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care outside of my working hours, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual schedule and needs. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my priority is keeping them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I take the time to follow their usual feeding, potty, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime schedules so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll give them plenty of attention and companionship, while also respecting their space and personality. Since I work from home, I’m able to spend a lot of time with them throughout the day when I’m not working, rather than simply stopping in for a quick visit. I’ll also keep your home clean and cared for, and provide regular updates so you know how your pets are doing. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, relaxed, and well loved in the comfort of their own home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
