“Would give 6 stars if we could. Could not have found anyone better than Milena. Great communication, very punctual, reliable, caring and attentive. We have 2 cats, 1 very friendly and 1 very shy. Both got along with her from the first day. She stopped by to return the keys and they came running when they heard her voice. We hope she’s available next time we travel!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. Any of my friends can tell you how much I love dogs, and how excited I am to see all of them around Miami! I am highly qualified to take care of senior pets or puppies/kittens and have done so before. I have experience with large/small animals, and rescue or purebred. I am capable of walking/exercising, brushing, feeding, playing, and fully taking care of your pets! I treat each pet like my own and strive for genuine, loving care of them! I am available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, and weekday mornings/nights. I'm a graduate student, so my only time conflict is classes around midday. I also work part-time as a barista on Monday mornings. I am extremely attentive and patient with pets. I've raised three dogs at home in Georgia, and have experience potty training in both houses and apartments. I also have experience with dogs with heart disease, anxiety, and asthma. I have identified when dogs are choking and have food poisoning, and provided the necessary care.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets and understand the responsibility that comes with keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and personal preferences. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels. I make sure pets receive plenty of companionship, exercise, and positive attention while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are well cared for. My pet care routine fits naturally into my daily life because I’m a full-time stay-at-home caregiver. I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. I’m available to follow each dog’s regular routine, including walks, meals, playtime, bathroom breaks, medication, and rest. Since I’m home full time, pets won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet, whether care takes place in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, medication, boundaries, and emergency contacts. I keep doors, gates, and secure areas properly closed, supervise pets during walks and playtime, and remove or avoid potential hazards. I respect each client’s home, belongings, and privacy, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, cared for, and comfortable while their owner is away.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, turtles and fish. Having small dogs around brings me so much joy. I love animals so much your pet will feel like they’re with an extended member of the family when they are with me! They will get plenty of exercise, affection, and attention while you are away. I will make sure they have a lot of fun are safe and treated with love, patience, understanding, respect and kindness always! They will get tons of attention. I don’t have a crate they can have full use of the couch and bed and run around! They will love staying with me. It’ll be like a resort vacation that’s all about them! Might even throw in some sound healing. Also whatever holiday or season it is, I’ll make sure to do something festive with them! I love cooking healthy food, I can cook for your pet too or give your fur baby pet food; up to you! I work from home and have all the time in the world to look after your sweet fur baby! They’ll get plenty of potty walks and attention exercise and my building has sooooo many dogs, they’ll get plenty of social fun! I live at the flamingo so there are plenty of fenced areas for your dog to play and socialize if that’s what you like. I can walk your baby/babies by the boats for a nice water view. The neighborhood is also a really nice area for walks. There are lots of parks nearby and parks in my building and little beach areas in my building! They will love me and they will love it here!

About: I grew up with 3 dogs and 4 cats. My oldest dog had a stroke and I had to learn all about the recovery process and help him through that. I also have puppy training experience with my youngest dog. I have fostered 12 cats and one of them being completely blind. I am very well equipped for any dog or cat that needs pet care. I am currently in school but my classes are online so my schedule is extremely flexible and open depending on when I get notified of any jobs that may need to be done. I take my dogs on walks twice a day and love playing with dogs and cats. I have no problem with crate training or any training that might be needed.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and grew up caring for both a dog and a cat of my own. I’ve also helped friends by walking and caring for their dogs, and I recently joined an Animal Welfare Club where I have opportunities to help care for animals in shelters. Along with my love for pets, I have two years of customer service experience, where I’ve always brought a positive and energetic personality to my work. One of my favorite parts of customer service is building genuine relationships, getting to know people, and making conversation so they feel comfortable and welcomed. I’d love to bring that same warmth and attentiveness to both pets and their owners while gaining experience with animals of all different personalities! 💖 While balancing school and a light work schedule, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I’m only away during the mornings on Mondays and Wednesdays and occasionally for a few hours on weekends. With my energetic personality, I’m always happy to spend that extra time giving your pet lots of attention, playtime, walks, and endless pets! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. There are no other pets in my home, so your pet can have my full attention, especially if they have additional needs or prefer a quieter environment. I’m very mindful of potential hazards and will follow any routines or instructions you provide. I also understand that every animal has a different personality, so I’ll always respect their boundaries and give them the space or affection they’re most comfortable with. 💝

About: I've cared for birds, big breed dogs, cats and even a tarantula. I am good at hiding medicine in treats or convincing a cat to swallow a pill. I've even raised and cared for baby birds and kittens. I'm currently studying and needed a flexible job. I like to move my body around but get bored at the gym and miss my walks with my great dane after she passed. A walk with a pup is more fun that the stair-master at the gym I am the friend my friends call to watch there pets. I'm really good when it comes to maintaining and up-keeping any kennels or pet rooms clean. I also like to wash bowls if their owners don't mind.

About: As a child being raised by a marine who trained dogs for the military I had the honors of experiencing a loving connection for dogs. My childhood Belgium Shepherd was my first love. At 18 having to let her go it was very difficult for me and I bought 2 toy poodles. Bella and Chloe. They were my children. I haven’t been able to commit to buying a puppy yet because I’m indecisive of what I want and my healing process has been hard with the loss of them. I started dog sitting a little over 5 years ago since then. Dogs always love me and the energy I present. I love dog sitting because it fulfills my heart to comfort them while they are away from their owners. I pay close attention to the ones that have separation anxiety and make sure they feel the comfort they need. making sure that they are assured that they are safe by doing things like (If approved by the owner; I will always ask questions like this in the beginning of the relationship built up with your dog), Making sure they have a toy, some treats, and sometimes if needed on the TV, whether it anxiety doggy music or simply them watching other animals on the TV to distract them until they start to feel comfortable. When the weather is nice i like to make sure they get a lot fresh air and staying active. Treating yours like my own is what it’s all about and I can assure you will be happy with my genuineness in that even though it is work in my eyes, it’s therapeutic. I’m currently working from home and have a lot of free time because I can send my emails whenever I need to. I am not on a set schedule while working at home. I feel now is the perfect time to fill my time with dog sitting because with my open schedule, I will be able to be more flexible. I have more options to help. *If your dog requires special needs like one on one sitting ( no other dogs around/ schedule blocked off to accommodate your pup only) I will work with you depending on the situation* - I charge the prices I do due to the upmost care guaranteed. Daily photos/videos, long walks, extra love and care. Along with updates on their behaviors, which includes noticing separation anxiety and addressing the situation to reassure your pup is safe, lack of eating, etc. I live at home by myself. I have a big open apartment. I do allow the pets on the furniture, if they are allowed to by the owners. I’m very open-minded to what pet needs so I feel as though this would be based on Client to Client of how you would like your dog to be and how the environment to be.

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and genuinely enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My experience includes caring for animals in a hands-on farm environment, along with providing attentive, responsible care for pets with different personalities and needs. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to detail. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and individual needs rather than treating every pet the same. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise, cleanliness, medications when applicable, and any changes in behavior. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or simply needs some extra companionship while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel secure, loved, and at home. I currently work part-time in the mornings for about four hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings. I’m able to accommodate pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and other care needs around my schedule. I’m flexible and happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and the owner’s preferred schedule. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their instructions and routines closely, including feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and cleaning up after their pets. I’m attentive to each animal’s personality and comfort level, giving affection and companionship when they’re receptive while also respecting their boundaries. I currently care for the cats around my residence by providing food and fresh water, giving them affection when they’re comfortable with it, and cleaning up after them. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I treat each pet with patience, kindness, and respect.

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have been around them for most of my life. I’ve had cats since I was 5 and dogs since I was 10, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my everyday life. During college, I was far from home and really missed spending time with my own pets, so I started pet sitting regularly. It became a great way for me to still have animals in my life while helping other people care for theirs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I work remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pets, take them on walks, play with them, or simply keep them company. I’m generally available during the day as well as evenings and nights. I just need a little notice so I can organize my schedule around your pet’s routine. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I always follow the owner’s instructions and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I’ll make sure they have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and company. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities since I was young, (a teen) including daily walks, feedings, playtime, and overnight care. Friends, family, and clients trust me to keep their pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s extra exercise, medication, or just extra love. I always provide updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away. I come from a family of 4 chihuahuas, but we did start out with golden retrievers and Rottweilers. Huge animal lover. Moved here from Nashville in April and building clientele here ❤️ I have a very flexible schedule, I WFH and structure my days around pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sittings throughout the week, with plenty of time for play, exercise, and attentive care. I plan my day to match your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and consistent while you’re away! I care for pets as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I carefully follow feeding instructions, leash rules, and household preferences. I keep doors secured, never rush walks, and provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and informed while your pet is in my care.

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 .
