“Charlie was extremely communicative and attentive. She was our first Rover sitter and we will definitely be booking with her again. Rex loved her company and waited every day for her to come and play. She gave me daily updates with their activities, his behavior and feeding concerns along with multiple photos. She made our trip a lot more peaceful knowing he was in good hands. She took the extra time to play with him as he is a Bengal and highly active. Thank you Charlie!”
“My cats loved being with Mark and his wife - they are very reliable and are great communicators always keeping me up to date and sending pictures of my babies”
“Soleil is amazing! súper responsable easy to communicate and very accommodating, my senior dog Jackson really likes her. She is kind and patient We had a very positive experience and hopefully can have her coming back in the future, Highly recommend her. Thank you Soleil! 🙏🏽”
“Natalie was an amazing pet sitter. She was kind, professional, and really easy to work with from start to finish. My cat warmed up to her right away, which says a lot—he’s usually pretty cautious with new people. She took great care of him, kept me updated, and made the whole experience stress-free. I’d definitely recommend her and will gladly book with her again.”
“She was so kind and responsive, even with a last-minute request. I felt really comfortable trusting her with everything, and she took excellent care — she even tidied up my place a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch.”
“Shiyu is absolutely wonderful!! She is communicative, interactive with my dog and pays attention to detail. I have utilized her services 3 times in the last 2 months and will continue to do so!”
“Elisha, I was so happy to find someone that could give me a piece of mind while vacationing. She did an awesome job. Communicated and took pictures of my furry kids eating, so I know they were being feed. I would definitely recommend her and will request her services again if needed.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for multiple years. I’ve had 10 years of experience, taking care of own Staffordshire, roomate’s cats, even a rabbit. :) i’m currently working part-time, therefore open to walking at all times of the day. Excited to meet your furry friend. Love exercise as well so able to do long walks. Can easily create if needed. Very clean and appreciate safety and a good home environment for all furry friends. Open to discussing if need be.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Downtown Miami and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I had my own Maltese/Shih Tzu mix for 14 years, so I understand firsthand just how deeply pets become family. Because of that, I also know how difficult it can feel to trust someone else with your furry baby — I was always extremely picky myself when it came to who cared for my dog. That’s why I approach every dog with patience, love, attentiveness, and genuine care. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or simply keeping your pup company while you’re away, I want both you and your dog to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I also have experience helping neighbors and friends with dog sitting and walks over the years, and I’m especially comfortable with small dogs, senior dogs, and dogs that may need a gentler or more attentive approach. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, calm, and affectionate with animals. You can expect regular updates, photos, and someone who will truly treat your dog like family. Currently available in Downtown Miami, Brickell, and nearby areas with flexible scheduling 🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate reliable time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for daytime walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and check-ins, including weekdays and many weekends. Because I’m based in Downtown Miami, I’m also able to accommodate nearby neighborhoods like Brickell and Edgewater fairly easily. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care naturally fits into my routine and I’m happy to provide pets with companionship, attention, exercise, and consistency while their owners are away or busy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet has different personalities, energy levels, and needs, so I approach each one with patience, attentiveness, and care. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, attention, exercise, potty breaks, and companionship while also following any instructions provided by the owner closely. I’m especially mindful about safety during walks, including secure leash handling, avoiding unsafe situations, and making sure pets are comfortable in Miami’s heat. For cats, I can assist with feedings, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and check-ins while owners are away. I also believe communication is very important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for.
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.
About: Dogs have been in my family my whole life, from puppies, all the way to seniors. I love to take care of other people’s pets as if they’re my own! I’m available in the evening on weekdays and during the day on weekends. I’m happy to take care of your fur babies if something unexpected pops up or while you take a well deserved trip :) I treat all animals with the love and respect that I show my own. I understand the level of care pets need and am more than happy to do so.
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.

I follow each pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection and companionship.Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel cared for, loved, and not alone while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up around all kinds of dogs. I’ve been pulled on the leash by a high energy, chocolate lab, and taken a day nap on the couch with a frenchie. Before my yorkie passed at age 15, I would change her diaper and give medication. Whatever your dog needs, I can provide! I have my cat baby, Remy, at home. He was a rescue from the shelter and is an only child. Cats are fiercely independent and have strong personalities. I know what’s it’s like to have a cat fall asleep on my chest, but also nip at me when giving a nail trim. Whether you just need someone to clean the litter or some company for your cats, I can do it all! I understand each pet has their own routine and I can follow it precisely. Let’s makes sure they’re well taken care of when you’re gone. I give great communication and pictures, so you’re never worrying. I know the heartbreak of leaving your pet behind, it’s never easy. Let me help relieve you of that burden. Currently I am working part-time in the evenings. Typically it is just 3 to four nights a week. Mornings are completely open and early afternoon. I can do late night after my shift as well, so your pet won’t be alone more than 8 hours. I understand the worries with having a stranger come into your home. Please know I treat the space with respect, you will never know I was even there! My priority is care for your pet.

Soleil was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my puppy, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and paid attention to all the little details I mentioned. She sent me updates and pictures. Even though it was very last-minute, she made everything work without any issues. I truly appreciated her kindness, communication with me. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Soleil , and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Erin took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She came every day to feed her, spend quality time playing with her, and made sure she was happy and well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my cat was in such caring and reliable hands. Erin was dependable, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Erin, for taking such great care of my furry family member!
Sofia is the ideal pet sitter! She was amazing from start to finish! She replies fast and is very communicative throughout the booking process and while she is with your pet. I wrote very detailed instructions with she followed perfectly! She sent multiple photos a day and immediately replied with any questions I had. She was so kind to my cat and really understands they are our family! She went above and beyond, I completely will be booking with her again! She is what everyone hopes their pet sitter will be! Thank you so much sofia!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Miami on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 6,500 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
