About: I have taken care of dogs for family and friends, including walking, feeding, and spending time with them. I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have flexible availability throughout the day, which allows me to schedule walks. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so it naturally becomes part of my everyday life. Pet care varies depending on the service. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm environment with constant supervision, regular walks, feeding, and playtime. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I follow their routine closely, making sure the pet feels comfortable in its familiar environment while still receiving walks, feeding, attention, and care as instructed.

About: I’ve been responsible for walking my neighbor’s dog since I was ten, which taught me early how to handle different behaviors, stay consistent with routines, and make pets feel safe and comfortable. I also care regularly for my grandmother’s cats and have a kitten of my own, so I’m experienced with both canine and feline care, including feeding schedules, litter maintenance, play engagement, and reading body language. Pet care is one of my favorite parts of the day. I build their routines right into mine, whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, and plenty of playtime and affection in the evenings. I’m consistent with feeding times and love making sure each pet gets personalized attention. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully. I stick to the pet’s usual scheduled feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and playtime. I check water bowls, tidy up any messes, and make sure doors and gates are always secure. I also provide detailed updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.

It was a blessing to find Gabriella. Very detailed, helpful, and amazing with my pets. Always went above and beyond what I could have asked for. Had her on a repeat schedule and was grateful with how she accommodated when I would need to shift my schedule around at the last minute. Will always use her in any future pet needs. Thank you so much for everything!

About: My partner and I, proud pet parents to our cat Gustavo, truly understand how hard it can be to leave your furry family members behind. Every time we’re away from him, we miss him deeply—and that empathy drives the love and care we provide for every pet. As verified pet sitters through Rover, you can feel confident knowing your pets are in safe, trusted hands. IG: itsthatcat_gustavo We offer a few different setups so your kitty can feel right at home: Single Room Stay – A full, cozy bedroom for up to 3 cats from the same household. Each bedroom has its own personal window for bird‑watching and sunbathing. Double Suite Stay – Both full bedrooms reserved for your cats (up to 6 from the same household). Full House Stay – The entire space reserved just for your kitty, so they can enjoy the whole house to themselves. In addition to their bedrooms, cats have access to shared spaces with plenty of windows, toys, and cozy spots to relax. Pricing does vary depending on the setup, and we’re happy to go over details so you can find the best fit for your cat. To keep everyone safe and healthy, we kindly require proof that any cat staying in our home is up to date on their core vaccines (such as rabies and FVRCP). If your kitty spends time outdoors, we also recommend keeping them on flea prevention before their stay. We’ll request this information in advance of your booking—thank you for helping us create a safe and cozy environment! My partner and I both work a 9–5 schedule Monday through Friday, and one of us works hybrid. Outside of those hours, we're usually at home with my partner’s two parents, who also live with us. For cat boarding, this means your cat gets extra loving attention from all of us throughout their stay. For other services like drop-in visits or dog walking, we will provide care and attention during scheduled times to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. We focus on timely meals, proper feeding schedules, snacks, hygiene, grooming, and fun playtime with toys and activities, ensuring every pet feels happy and loved.

About: I’ve always had dogs when I was growing up. Cared for my black mini schnauzer Malu until she was 13 and passed away. She was the love of my life! Recently I’ve been dog sitting for close friends off and on. I’m a full time teacher with time off to play with your pups! Im available for boarding on weekends and week days after 3:00 pm. Plus summer break! I live in a 2 bedrooms house, in a nice neighborhood and near a small park. No yard (unfortunately). I’m an active, dedicated and trustworthy human who loves animals and nature. I’ll be a great company to your fur baby!

About: Pets are family, and I’m passionate about providing the individualized care they deserve. With over 10 years of experience in pet care and dog training, I’ve learned how important it is to truly understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. It’s more than just feeding them or taking them for a walk. For me, it’s about creating a safe, nurturing environment, building relationships founded on trust, and helping every pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy enough to truly thrive. I believe clear communication with pet parents is just as important as the care itself, so you always feel connected and at ease while your pet is with me. I work remotely and part-time for a puppy training company, which gives me the flexibility to be present, attentive, and spend lots of quality time with your fur-babies. I tailor my care to each pet and the specific service you book, whether that’s drop-in visits, dog walking, boarding or daycare. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet’s basic needs are fully met - fresh water, feeding (if needed), potty breaks, and a clean, comfortable environment. Beyond that, I spend quality time with them through play, enrichment, or simply providing calm companionship, depending on their personality and energy level. For dog walks, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and training level. I reinforce good leash manners using positive reinforcement and make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. In your home, I always aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, since that’s what helps them feel most secure. I’m very mindful of your space, follow all care instructions closely, and provide updates so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Ryan and Debbie were absolutely fantastic from the very first moment I contacted them. I contacted them with a last moment request when my son’s friend backed out at the last moment. My son was leaving on a business trip and I am recuperating from a leg injury that prevents me from walking my son’s 4 1/2 year old Gerberian Shepsky (GS Dog and Siberian Husky mix). He is a great dog but does not realize his own substantial strength. Ryan responded to my request within minutes and was available that morning. From the moment I met Ryan and his Fiance Debbie, it was evident that they love dogs and love taking care of them. They immediately became close with the dog and he would become very excited when they came to walk him. They would show up and he would run and say hello and then sit at the door for them to put his leash on Walks were long, especially in this heat, annd they would even run with him. Numerous photo updates would arrive by text while he was out on the walk and they would provide detailed reports of the walk. They will be by first choice when future needs present themselves and I would whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone. They are true dog lovers who liove what they do and it shows.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds since I was young, including two dogs and my own cat. I’ve pet-sat for neighbors, friends, and family, ensuring they’re fed, walked, and happy. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for two consecutive summers, gaining hands on experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’m comfortable with young puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, and I treat every animal with love and patience. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a full-time student at FSU with a part-time job, I manage my schedule carefully and have plenty of availability. I don’t have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me large blocks of free time, and even on class days I have breaks that allow me to check in, play with, and care for pets. I also have open weekends, so I’m able to dedicate as much time as needed to ensure pets are well cared for, active, and happy. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific care needs. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and energy level to understand what they need, whether that’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship and a calm presence. My goal is to create a trusting environment where pets feel relaxed, attended to, and happy.

About: 💕 About Me & Pet Experience Hi, I’m Jessica, but most people know me as Aunty Jess — your friendly, reliable pet sitter from Margate, Florida. I’m 24 years old and currently studying Veterinary Technology at Broward College. My passion for animals started when I was very young, and it’s grown into something that truly defines who I am today. I’ve spent several years caring for pets, including small and medium-sized dogs, playful puppies, calm seniors, and cats with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also cared for smaller pets like fish and shrimp — I even have my own aquarium! My experience ranges from everyday walks and feedings to maintaining consistent routines that keep pets calm and happy while their owners are away. For several years, I boarded up to six dogs at a time in my home, managing different breeds, schedules, and personalities with patience and care. It taught me how to balance structure with affection — making sure every dog received attention, exercise, and love. Some of my clients became repeat customers, trusting me multiple times with their pets, which means a lot to me and shows how dependable and compassionate I am with every animal I meet. I also used to have my own dog, who I adored deeply. Due to house rules, I had to rehome him, but I made sure he went to a loving family filled with care, stability, and affection. That experience strengthened my understanding of responsibility and the emotional bond between people and their pets. Now, I focus on offering House Sitting and Dog Walking so I can give pets one-on-one attention and personalized care in the comfort of their own homes. I understand that some pets experience separation anxiety or stress, so I always create a calm environment and follow their normal routines to help them feel safe and loved. Through my studies in Veterinary Technology, I’ve learned how to recognize signs of stress, discomfort, or health concerns early on. I know how to approach each animal with patience, empathy, and care — whether it’s during walks, feeding time, or bedtime. I take pride in being organized, trustworthy, and consistent, with a genuine love for all animals big and small. My goal as Aunty Jess is simple: to make sure every pet I care for feels loved, safe, and happy — just like they would if you were home. 🕓 Schedule I like to keep my schedule transparent and well-organized so pet parents know exactly when I’m available and how I plan my days around your pets’ needs. I’m currently a Veterinary Technology student at Broward College, and I’ve built my class routine to make sure every pet in my care still gets the love, attention, and time they deserve. Here’s my weekly availability: 📅 Monday – Wednesday: I’m in class for about 3 hours during the day, but I’m available after 3:00 PM for house sitting and dog walking. Before leaving for class, I always make sure pets are fed, walked, and comfortable so they feel relaxed while I’m away. When I return, I give them my full attention for evening care, playtime, and cuddles. 📅 Thursday: I have a short 2-hour class during the day, so my availability is very flexible. I’m free after 3:00 PM and can provide walks, meals, and plenty of evening companionship. 📅 Friday – Sunday: These are my fully open days, which means I’m completely available for full-day and overnight house sitting. I dedicate these days to giving your pets my full focus — walks, playtime, meals, and comfort throughout the day and night. I always plan my week carefully to make sure your pets’ needs come first. Even on class days, I maintain structure and consistency by following their normal schedule as closely as possible. You’ll receive daily updates with photos or videos, so you always know how your pets are doing. Your pet’s well-being and routine are always my top priorities — I’m committed to keeping them safe, loved, and happy every day of the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities with every pet I care for. I know that when you choose someone to look after your pets and your home, you’re putting a lot of faith in them — and I take that responsibility very seriously. You can always count on me to treat your space and your pets with respect, care, and honesty. As a vet student, I have knowledge of basic animal health, safety practices, and behavior management, which helps me create a calm, comfortable environment for every pet. I make sure water bowls are always full, leashes and collars are properly fitted, and that pets are supervised closely during walks or outdoor time. If a pet seems anxious or uncomfortable, I know how to respond gently and reassure them until they relax. I also understand how important your home is. When house sitting, I always keep things clean, organized, and secure — the way you left them. I lock doors, follow your household instructions, and never invite anyone over. My goal is to make your home feel just as peaceful for your pets as it does when you’re there. Trust is built through communication, so I send daily photo and video updates so you can see exactly how your pet is doing. Whether it’s a morning walk, nap time, or dinner, I keep you informed and confident that everything is going smoothly. Your pets’ safety and emotional comfort always come first with me. With Aunty Jess, you can feel completely at ease knowing your pets are cared for with love, patience, and a calm environment that feels like home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Margate on Rover is $18.87 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 your Margate. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Margate.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

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 walker.
