“I can't express enough how grateful I am to have found Corina as a doggy sitter for my beloved pup. She went above and beyond in taking care of my furry friend. Corina's communication was top-notch; she sent me frequent updates and adorable pictures of my dog, which instantly put my mind at ease while I was away. Knowing that my dog was in such caring hands made my trip stress-free. I highly recommend Corina to anyone in need of a trustworthy doggy sitter. She provided a safe and loving environment for my pet, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. My dog loves her, and so do I! Thank you, Corina, for being such a wonderful sitter.”
“Tiffany was a great Dog sitter. Her customer service was exceptional to let me know about my dog and how was he doing with pictures. Always on time and very professional. I will definitely consider her services again should the need arise.”
About: I am an animal lover and am a responsible care taker. I am very affectionate with animals and will provide detailed updates of your pet while I’m taking care of them. I currently work full time with a flexible schedule. I prefer weekend care but can make weekdays work as well. Early AM & later afternoon times work best. I live in a condo building and have plenty of space of your furry animal(s) to run around comfortably in my apartment. For drop-in visits, I will follow all instructions provided and will take the best care (:
“Contacted rover on short notice and was so pleased That Maddy reached out and was available. She showed up on time, was very sweet and sent me pics of my pup while I was out. I was just visiting Miami and needed some help managing my boy!”
About: I am a law student at the University of Miami with a flexible schedule who loves animals! I am reliable, communicative, and attentive to every pet’s routine. My family has a six year old cockapoo who I adore and is my best friend! Being away from him is very tough, so I love to spend time with other dogs and make them feel loved and cared for. I’m currently working full-time in office from 9-5, but I am available before 9 am, after 5 pm, and from 12-1 pm during lunch breaks for dog walks or check ins! I am always attentive to your dog and will play with him/her, walk him/her whenever needed and for fun, and will adhere to any of your pet’s routines and other requests.
“We had Aracelis take care of our two cats over Christmas, and she did a wonderful job. She kept them fed, made sure their litter was clean, and checked in on them throughout the holidays. It was great knowing they were well taken care of while we were away. We would highly recommend Aracelis to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
“Carolina did an amazing job watching our dog!!! She was very communicative, flexible, kind, punctual, professional, and understanding. Carolina went above and beyond - we were so pleased with her services!!! I highly recommend using her and we definitely will choose her for future Rover visits. Thank you Carolina!!! You are the best. ?”
“Second time we hired Christy. She was all around great! She communicated so well, noticed our kitties were hot because our AC broke and overall left the house and litter clean. Super impressed and will be recommending her to friends!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for them. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats through helping friends, neighbors, and family members with walking, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and overnight care. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently attend the University of Miami, but all of my classes are online so I have completely open availability. I’m looking for something to fill my time with something that I love which includes pets and caring for others loved ones! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and my client’s home. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and personality to help them feel as stress-free as possible while their owner is away. I’m responsible, clean, and communicative, and I will always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Since I have pets of my own, I understand how important trust and safety are when leaving your pets in someone else’s care.
“Caitlyn was an absolute joy and delight to work with and a HUGE relief for me while I was out of town! I knew without a doubt in my mind that my fur-babies were well taken care of, pampered, and loved on. Both of my cats are UBER social and I knew I needed someone who not only would interact actively with them but would look forward to and enjoy doing it. I got at least 3 videos and many pictures everyday of the cats trotting to the door, obviously looking forward to Caitlyn's visits, knowing they would receive love, cuddles, grooming and play time. Caitlyn was also great at communicating with me, was friendly, professional and easy to work with. I am so pleased to know that I have a reliable cat-sitter for the future and will definitely call upon her again in the future. My only gripes with her is that I obviously want to give her a great review and am now afraid she wont be available in the future!!”
“Gabriela is just a piece of sunshine. She was on time, extremely sweet with my kitties and Very gentle and very caring definitely booking her again soon.!!”
About: I studied vet med at Iowa State University and have vast experience working at animal shelters. I’ve been trained in pet care, doggy heimlichs and administration of medications. Grew UP with dogs all my life, my mini schnauzer in PR has epilepsy and I know that making sure shes in good hands is always top priority. Your dog(s) will be treated like my own when with me. I’m currently working from home with flexible hours. I’m able to walk your dog(s) as many times as needed throughout the day and whatever distance needed. Theres a beautiful park by where I live that has a fenced in yard that I can also take them to play in, if agreed upon (and if your dog is not reactive since this is a public park and i want to ensure their safety). During their stay your pet(s) will be allowed in the living room and bedroom of the apartment. They can sleep on or off my bed or couch, whatever they feel the most comfortable in. And if they need extra care or attention to ease any separation anxiety or stress I’ll be there. You will be receiving as many pictures, videos or updates as you would like. If I’m walking your dog they will always be on leash and completely supervised.
“So incredibly sweet and responsive! We are so grateful for her being able and willing to take care of our fur babies! Our little one is incredibly shy with new people and she was able to work with him so well. Super appreciative!”
“Anna was great with my cat Dexter! She was super responsive and kept me updated with photos, which I really appreciated. Dexter clearly loved hanging out and playing with her. Would definitely book her again!”
“Silvia is amazing!! Both of my cats loved her right from the first time they met her (and one of them is very shy and doesn’t usually engage much with new people). Silvia is super communicative and shared updates and photos for each check-in visit. It’s clear she absolutely LOVES animals, and I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and treat every pet like part of my own family. I have hands-on experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, ducks, and more, including both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets who need extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and genuine understanding of animal behavior. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication schedules, basic puppy training (like potty training and leash habits), and providing soft, reassuring care for older pets who need a slower pace. I’m also highly reliable and detail-oriented, making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I adjust to each pet’s personality so they feel at home even when you’re not there. I work home office so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I know most of them get stressed from staying on a different environment speciality when they stay alone. I make sure they feel safe, cozy and loved while you are away. I provide pet care both in my home and at the client’s home, depending on what is most comfortable for the pet and owner. In my home, I maintain a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets are supervised and treated like family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to reduce stress, ensure familiarity, and keep the pet comfortable. In both settings, I prioritize safety, attention, and consistent care tailored to each pet’s needs. Also I believe in consistent communication, so you have have peace of mind at any moment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Miami
Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!
Luna was in such great hands 🤍 She was incredibly caring, attentive, and loving with her. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and treated Luna like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Luna was being looked after by someone so reliable and kind. Highly recommend!
Natalia is incredible!! I hired her very last minute for drop in visits and walks for my bernedoodle Bear, when my plans changed on extremely short notice. She was flexible, reliable and friendly, and even more importantly, she really took the time to connect with Bear. This was my first time leaving Bear since adopting him, and since I work from home, he is not used to spending time alone. After one drop in visit, he began howling after Natalia left; she heard him, went back inside to calm him down, left her sweatshirt for him to cuddle with, and stayed until he settled. I felt so reassured knowing that someone so caring was looking after him. We will absolutely hire Natalia again going forward.
We are so grateful for the amazing care Aryssa gave Chimmy while we were away for the week. We especially appreciated the attention she gave to her anxiety and how patient, loving, and attentive she was with her. The regular updates and photos meant so much to us and truly helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Chimmy was in such caring hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust Aryssa with her again. Thank you for everything!
I can’t say enough wonderful things! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much love, care, and genuine attention Chanell has for animals! Throughout the time I was away, she kept me updated with photos, videos, and little notes about how my pup was doing—giving me complete peace of mind. I came home to a happy and healthy dog who clearly was well looked out for. She also showed care to my home while away which I thought was very thoughtful. I feel so lucky to have found Chanell and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry family member!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 6,313 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Miami. 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 Miami 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 Miami 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 Miami 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 Miami. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
